"Xiao Luo, what do you mean? Do you have a problem with Class Monitor Ruoran?"
"If you're not convinced that Ruoran is the class monitor, you can report it to the counselor or recommend yourself to be the class monitor. It's just that whether or not everyone will vote for you is another matter."
"That's right. Don't think that you guys can be lawless and disrespect Class Monitor Ruoran just because you guys are national treasures."
Four or five girls stood up and spoke harshly on behalf of Huang Ruoran.
Zhu Xiaofei and Ding Kai felt a headache coming on. Huang Ruoran could be the class monitor, so he naturally had a lot of supporters in the class. The people who stood up to reprimand Xiao Luo were either the class committee members or the girls who had a good relationship with Huang Ruoran. Xiao Luo was going against one-third of the major. This was not the result they wanted to see.
Xiao Luo was stunned for a moment, then he showed a disdainful smile. At the same time, he was quite puzzled. He was just unhappy with being ordered around by a girl. How could she say that he was dissatisfied with Huang Ruoran being the class monitor? This label was really put on him so suddenly.
At this time, Huang Ruoran said to the girls who stood up, "It's class time now. What are you doing? Do you still have any class discipline? Sit down and listen to Ms. Zhong's class. Don't lower yourself to the same level as others."
She still had the authority of a class monitor. The four or five girls who reprimanded Xiao Luo glared at Xiao Luo as if warning him and then sat down.
Don't lower yourself to the same level as others?
Xiao Luo felt very uncomfortable. Huang Ruoran was obviously mocking him. Who else could he be referring to if not him?
"Ahem …"
Ms. Zhong Meili coughed a few times and said seriously, "Okay, let's forget about the unhappiness just now. Xiao Luo also admitted his mistake. He just came to our class and needs some time to integrate into the group. Everyone should be more tolerant. Now let's continue the class. Xiao Luo, sit down."
She spoke up for Xiao Luo because she saw that Xiao Luo's oral English was very good. Otherwise, she would definitely help Huang Ruoran take down Xiao Luo's spirit.
Xiao Luo obeyed and sat down, but his heart was full of anger. He didn't expect that after three years in society, he would still be angered by a girl who was four or five years younger than him. After thinking about it, he finally blamed it on his own male chauvinism.
"Brother Luo, my good Brother Luo, why are you arguing with Class Monitor Ruoran?"
Zhu Xiaofei said earnestly, "Our specialization has always been dominated by females. Us guys are called national treasures, but we are still being suppressed by them."
"Yes, there are only three of us guys. We can't beat them in numbers," Ding Kai said.
Xiao Luo smiled and said, "I just don't like being ordered around by a girl. Don't worry, this matter is over. I won't hold it against her."
Zhu Xiaofei and Ding Kai looked at each other. They did not believe Xiao Luo's words at all. Yesterday, Xiao Luo was ridiculed by the opponent in the game. He used the Barbarian King to teach the opponent a lesson. They were very sure that Xiao Luo was a person who would repay kindness with kindness and revenge with hatred. He was calm on the surface, but when he showed his fangs, the opponent had no time to react.
After the small disturbance, Instructor Zhong Meili continued with her lesson.
Her main topic today was the history of the currencies of various countries in the world. Of course, she taught in English. After all, she taught oral English. If she taught in Chinese, it would inevitably be out of place.
"Since our ancestors, there has always been a saying that money is the root of all evil. So, is money the root of all evil? Students, what do you think about this?" Zhong Meili threw out a topic.
"Money is definitely the root of all evil. All kinds of crimes are caused by money. Since ancient times, countless people have died because of money." An Huanhuan stood up and expressed her opinion in English.
The others also agreed with this statement. After all, there was a saying in Hua, "People die for money, and birds die for food." This sentence fully explained the evil status of money.
"Students, do you all have the same opinion? Ruoran, what about you?" Zhong Meili looked at Huang Ruoran.
Huang Ruoran stood up, organized his words, and replied in fluent English, "The story of 'Paradise Lost' in the Bible and the teachings of our Hua ancestor, Mencius, both state that the reason why people are evil is not because of their nature, but because of external temptations that make people lose their conscience.
In my opinion, money is the root of all evil.
First, money has the legitimacy to exchange with any commodity of equal value. It has unlimited effectiveness, so it can incite people's endless greed.
Second, money can not only summon the wind and rain in the field of commodities, but it can also commercialize non-commodities. It is not only a symbol of material wealth, but also a bargaining chip of spiritual value. Power and status can be bought with money. Chastity and reputation can be sold openly. Humanity and dignity can be sold for a high price. Even justice and conscience are tainted with the stench of money.
Third, people's worship of money has also mutated the relationship between people and money. In reality, money is regarded as the God that people worship. Because of money, people lose themselves in this grotesque world of materialism. Also because of money, people lose their inner conscience without knowing it.
Shakespeare has long exposed that money can turn black into white, ugly into beautiful, wrong into right, and lowly into honorable. It is precisely because money has such a boundless power to confuse right and wrong and turn the universe upside down that it has become the root of the wanton spread of evil. Therefore, I believe that money is the root of all evil. "
Although they were English majors, everyone's English ability had not reached a certain level. They could only vaguely understand. However, after Huang Ruoran finished speaking, she repeated her point of view in Chinese. The entire classroom was deeply convinced by her reasonable and well-founded argument that used famous sayings.
"As expected of the class monitor. What she said is so good."
"The class monitor is right. Money is the root of all evil."
"Yes, people are born good. Only external inducements can make people fall and commit crimes, and money is this inducement."
For a moment, everyone in the class supported Huang Ruoran.
"Ruoran's eloquence is really good!" Chu Yue curled her lips and said.
"Yes, otherwise our young mistress Chu would not have willingly given the class monitor position to her." Bai Ling nodded in agreement.
Chu Yue rolled her eyes at her and said, "You talk too much."
Bai Ling playfully stuck out her tongue and did not say anything else.
Zhu Xiaofei and Ding Kai stared at Xiao Luo without blinking. They always felt that Xiao Luo would stand up and refute Huang Ruoran. They did not believe that Xiao Luo would be able to swallow the anger she suffered just now.
