Chapter 133: Sister Yue is tough, Mr. Xu defends her (Part 2)
Without having to wait until the next day, Jiang Fuyue received a call from the capital in the evening.
"Hello, Jiang, I'm Yan Zhenfeng, the head coach of this summer camp."
"...Is there something wrong?" The light voice was like the gurgling spring water, bringing coolness to the ears.
"We're sorry that the staff's mistake has led to this situation. Your admission to the camp has not been revoked. We will work with NOI to create better study conditions for you and try to balance your studies."
It has a very official tone, and there is sincerity, but it is not enough.
Is it that easy to cover up everything with just one sentence: "It was the staff's mistake"?
Jiang Fuyue: "I'm sorry, I won't report to the camp until the matter is thoroughly investigated."
Ga!
Yan Zhenfeng was stunned.
"No... We've investigated everything. It was a staff error..."
"Okay, how many staff members are there? How did they make a mistake? What is the root cause of the mistake? How do you plan to deal with these staff members?"
The barrage of attacks left Yan Zhenfeng dumbfounded.
"Why aren't you talking? Haven't you investigated everything thoroughly? These details should be clear as well, right?"
"Student Jiang, I understand how you feel right now. It's hard for anyone to go through something like this..."
"I'm doing fine." She picked up the remote and changed the channel.
Yan Zhenfeng: “…”
"Yesterday morning, your staff called me and assured me that I had been disqualified. They insisted that all of my actions were in compliance with regulations. No matter how much I questioned them, they refused to budge, their attitude quite firm. I don't believe it was just a mistake. The entire call was recorded, and two of my teachers passed it on to the Municipal Education Bureau half an hour ago. I await the final results of the investigation. Until then, I will not leave for the capital."
Yan Zhenfeng's scalp tingled.
Only then did I realize that the person on the other end of the phone didn't sound like a high school student at all. Listening to her relaxed tone, clear logic, and strategy of both attacking and defending, even negotiation experts couldn't be as eloquent as her.
The key point is that they are right and they are squatting on the moral high ground, looking down on him and making him feel guilty, short of breath and lost.
Yan Zhenfeng took a deep breath. He knew that if he couldn't take the initiative next, he would really be led by the nose by a high school student.
Therefore, when he spoke again, his tone unconsciously took on a harshness.
"Student Jiang, I urge you to think carefully. Time waits for no one. If you don't come to the capital, you won't be able to participate in the training. Summer camp is the only way to join the national team. If you miss the selection, it's equivalent to missing out on the IPhO. Is it worth it?"
Jiang Fuyue narrowed her eyes slightly, a cold expression flashing across her face. "Is this considered... a warning?"
"Warning sounds too harsh, or could you understand it as...advice?"
After Yan Zhenfeng finished speaking, he waited nervously for the other party's response.
If nothing unexpected happens, this should be accomplished.
But in fact—
"Sorry, Coach Yan," the other end said leisurely, "I'm a soft-hearted person, but since you've brought up the IPhO, I really can't just let it go. After all, your staff's initial announcement of canceling my summer camp eligibility is effectively depriving me of the opportunity to compete internationally. I've already experienced the worst, so what's worse?"
"you!"
"I still say the same thing. I won't join the camp until the matter is thoroughly investigated. If you want training, then train. If you want to disqualify, then disqualify. I'll take it all!"
After saying that, he hung up.
"Student Jiang, don't be impulsive. Let's... Hello? Hello?!"
Yan Zhenfeng yelled twice into the phone and stomped his feet in anger.
The more he thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt. He was filled with anger, like a bloated pufferfish.
Are all high school students this difficult these days?
He expected Jiang Fuyue to cry with joy after receiving the call and express his gratitude repeatedly, then pack up and rush to the imperial capital to report, the camp entry ceremony will be held again, and training can be put on the schedule as soon as possible.
result……
That’s it?
It really makes me bald!
"Professor Yan, Mr. Xu wants you to go to his office." Assistant Xiao Zhang came over to deliver the message.
Yan Zhenfeng took a deep breath and calmed himself down: "I'm coming."
Five minutes later.
Knock knock——
"Enter."
"Teacher." Yan Zhenfeng stood with his hands hanging down.
Xu Kaiqing fixed his gaze on him like a radar: "How is it? What do the Linhuai people say?"
"Both education bureaus are jointly investigating, but Zhao Yongtao insists he's unaware of the situation, so it'll take some time... After discussing it with several coaches, I decided to invite Jiang Fuyue back to class. The IPhO is imminent, and training must continue. We can't delay the formation of the national team."
Xu Kaiqing nodded, that's the truth.
"So what did she say?"
"Cough..." Yan Zhenfeng touched his nose, looking a little embarrassed.
"Are you having trouble?"
When Yan Zhenfeng heard this, he immediately felt very aggrieved and started to complain about Jiang Fuyue. His expression was so sad that anyone who heard it would cry. If someone didn't know, they would think that Jiang Fuyue had beaten him, a grown man.
"...Is my attitude good enough? I've never been this patient with my own graduate students and doctoral students. To say I'm being too patient is no exaggeration, but what about her?"
Xu Kaiqing listened with great interest, his eyes sparkling: "What about her?"
Yan Zhenfeng was deeply touched. His teacher had never shown such concern for him before. "That student was so infuriating! Do you know what she said?"
"say what?"
"She actually said she wouldn't come until she had checked everything, and told us to do whatever we wanted, and then she hung up."
Xu Kaiqing: "Excessive!"
Yan Zhenfeng nodded: "That's right, it's simply too much!"
"I'm talking about you!"
"……ah?!"
"She hung up the phone directly. You can imagine how angry she was. You actually made her angry?!" Xu Kaiqing looked at him as if he was looking at an unfilial descendant.
That was called "extreme disappointment".
Yan Zhenfeng: "?" Aren't you concerned about me? How did it become me who was being excessive?
"Hurry up and call to apologize. Then have the Education Bureau's investigation team find out the truth as quickly as possible and get them to the capital as soon as possible! Do you hear me?!"
"...I heard it." Yan Zhenfeng nodded stupidly.
Xu Kaiqing: "Any other questions?"
"No... I have to call and apologize?!" He was a little confused. Didn't he come here to complain? How, how did it become that he had to apologize to the other party?
"certainly!"
"B-By what?"
Xu Kaiqing slammed the table and said, "You've offended everyone. What else do you want to do if you don't apologize?"
"He's just a high school student. What's the big deal about offending him?" Yan Zhenfeng muttered in a low voice.
Oh, he's a professor. Although he's not as venerable as a teacher, he's still the vice-dean of the School of Physics at Q University. He has many students all over the world and is respected wherever he goes. How dare he apologize to a high school student? Is he shameless?
Xu Kaiqing was furious: "If I asked you to apologize, then apologize. Why are you complaining so much? If it weren't for your negligence as head coach, would the situation have turned out like this? You deserve it!"
Yan Zhenfeng admitted this.
Apologies don't seem that unacceptable, but...
His eyes flickered slightly. "You seem to be... paying special attention to Jiang Fuyue?"
Not only could he call out her name, he also flew into a rage for her at the opening ceremony and even delayed the opening of the camp just to wait for her to report. Now he was helping Jiang Fuyue to confront his beloved disciple.
Tsk, I’ve never seen a teacher defend someone like this.
Who is this classmate Jiang?
Yan Zhenfeng suddenly had a bold idea...
"Have you found your long-lost biological daughter?"
Xu Kaiqing: "Get lost!"
"Or... the affection we left behind has already blossomed and borne fruit without us even realizing it, and now the fruit has come to claim her father? And she discovered she's a genius girl?"
Xu Kaiqing's forehead veins bulged. "Yan Zhenfeng! How many times have I told you to stop reading those nonsense novels online? Things like "one birth, ten treasures"? If you have that time, you'd be better off writing a few more SCI papers!"
"Yes, yes, yes..." Yan Zhenfeng quickly admitted his mistake, but never changed.
It seems that there is only one last possibility left -
"Are you interested in her?"
Xu Kaiqing almost wanted to slap him in the face: "What the hell are you talking about?! I'm an old man, I've long given up the idea of romance! Just shut up! The more you speculate, the more outrageous it gets!"
"Talking about love?" Yan Zhenfeng's eyes were blank. "I mean, are you interested in her as your last disciple?"
Xu Kaiqing: "..." I suspect you did it on purpose. [Smile]JPG
"Hehe, does this mean I'm going to have a little junior sister?"
Xu Kaiqing said expressionlessly: "That's your ancestor."
“?!”
