Chapter 127 Nine to Five



The reason he's sitting here is because he'll be the student teacher for the new class starting next semester, which is why he's able to attend this meeting as a counselor.

But such a big thing definitely has nothing to do with him, a nobody.

Sitting next to him was a female teacher. She quietly leaned down and said to him, "Did you hear that? This time, they're actually asking us to find someone to donate a building?"

"If I could find a kind and successful person to donate the building, with such powerful connections, would I still be working a 9-to-5 job here? I would have gone home and retired long ago."

The counselor replied absentmindedly, "That's right, we're just here to make up the numbers. Don't worry, this is all up to the higher-ups, they won't let us go."

Everyone thought that it would be the shareholders and senior management who would solicit donations.

But I never expected this!

After the meeting, it was the new teachers who were kept behind by the dean.

The dean tapped the table and said seriously, "Although you have not been to the school for long and are still relatively inexperienced, I believe that you young people are all ambitious, hardworking, and eager to make a contribution to the school."

"Isn't the internet dominated by you young people now? We older folks may not be able to keep up with you young people anymore."

"In the end, this building donation was caused by one of your new teachers not properly supervising the experiment, which led to an accident that caused an explosion and fire. But the incident has already happened, and it was an accident. The school should bear the responsibility."

"But I've also decided to give you all some valuable experience, so I'm officially announcing that you'll be involved in this fundraising effort as well."

"It's okay if you can't do it, just do your best."

"After all, I've heard that some of your classes have heirs to listed companies, which is a valuable connection."

After exchanging pleasantries, the dean saw that these young teachers were all uninterested and their faces clearly showed that they couldn't do it, but he wasn't angry.

Instead, he smiled and said, "A deputy director is retiring next semester, so the position of deputy director has become vacant."

"Whoever can help the school solve its problems will be the deputy director."

The preceding sentences are all nonsense; only the last sentence is the key point.

The young teachers, who had initially been feigning agreement, instantly became full of fighting spirit.

The dean, seeing that things were going well, left the meeting room with a smile, leaving it to these ambitious young teachers, who had witnessed such a significant event at the school.

The shareholders and senior management were already dissatisfied, so it was impossible for them to lower themselves to solicit sponsorships.

Among these newly appointed teachers, some of the students in certain classes are from wealthy or influential families.

It couldn't be more perfect!

While the counselor was still pondering, another teacher, who was on good terms with him, quickly pulled him aside to a corner. Seeing that no one was around to approach, the teacher whispered to the counselor:

"You have the best chance of being promoted to deputy director this time."

Seeing the counselor's suspicious look, the teacher continued, "Didn't you hear the dean's hint? Isn't there a heiress from the Zhou Group in your class?"

"Moreover, you are so conscientious and responsible in your work, you never show favoritism to any classmate, and you are always fair in your dealings."

"Given your popularity among your classmates, it will be much easier for you to approach Su Qingjiao to discuss donating money to build a teaching building. Who is she? A few million is nothing to her!"

"With the Zhou Group's financial resources, Su Qingjiao can easily do whatever she wants."

The counselor slowly shook his head. He had personally witnessed the woman who claimed to be Zhou Yi's mother crying and apologizing in a video call with Zhou Yi.

I've seen villas that are so grand and imposing.

The rows of servants and the renovations were the best proof! Zhou Yi had always been a student he had high hopes for, so he believed even more in the facts that Zhou Yi had shown him.

Zhou Yi said that he was the real young master of the Zhou Group, while Su Qingjiao was the nanny's daughter. She only became ambitious because she saved his grandmother.

What's more, Zhou Yi's surname is... Zhou!

"I never thought of going to find Su Qingjiao."

Upon hearing the counselor's words, the teacher was shocked for a moment before continuing, "Why? She's the best candidate! You haven't heard any rumors among the students, have you?"

"You really think Su Qingjiao is a fake?"

"Students don't experience much, so it's normal for them to be prone to making unfounded accusations. But those luxury goods and designer brands she wears aren't fake, and she even has a chauffeur!"

"In addition, I personally saw her in the mall before, spending hundreds of thousands of yuan to buy bags. Anyway, I think Su Qingjiao is a rich girl."

When the counselor heard his colleague say this, he looked somewhat disapproving, but he also had no evidence to prove that Su Qingjiao was fake, even though he believed Zhou Yi.

However, as a teacher, he cannot easily confirm a student's identity with a positive attitude, as this is not in line with a teacher's position.

So he didn't say much to his colleagues, only saying, "I still believe in Zhou Yi. Even if we really have to look for someone, we should look for him."

The teacher glanced at the counselor with a complicated expression, then shook her head and denied it, saying, "I also heard what Zhou Yi said in the meeting room that day."

"But what can a single video prove? There are too many people faking videos these days."

"You haven't seen it with your own eyes."

After a pause, seeing that the counselor still had a firm and unwavering expression, the teacher wavered and tentatively asked, "Are you sure this is your choice?"

"If you go to find Zhou Yi, then I'll go find Su Qingjiao. Although Su Qingjiao is in your class, we are all contributing to the school, and all students are part of the school."

"Don't blame me for taking your deputy director position later."

The counselor hesitated for a moment, "The deputy director position."

If nothing unexpected happens, this position will be earned through seniority.

If he could become a deputy director at such a young age, he would be the envy of all his colleagues in the same circle. He never expected to have this opportunity.

The counselor closed her eyes, her mind in turmoil, but finally made up her mind: "Okay, it's all for the school's benefit. Since you want to go see her, then go ahead."

"I still plan to go see Zhou Yi."

The counselor decided to trust the student he had always believed in!

He didn't believe that Zhou Yi, such an excellent student, would lie about something like this, and he certainly didn't believe that his student would impersonate the Zhou family heir out of vanity!

On the contrary, Su Qingjiao has been dressing more and more simply lately, and she no longer travels in luxury cars.

He believed in his judgment!

On the other side.

Zhou Family Villa.

Zhou Yi had just returned to the villa for two days when, in the early hours of the morning, he suddenly developed a high fever.
