Chapter 149: Counter-slap
Dean of the School of Journalism.
When the students around heard this, they turned around in shock and saw dozens of people dressed like teachers walking towards them.
Standing in the front was a man with half-white hair, about fifty or sixty years old. When he had a cold expression, his face looked a bit stern.
Because a freshman welcome party had just been held yesterday, everyone was very familiar with the department leaders on the stage.
I immediately recognized the man walking in front as Dean Hu from the School of Journalism. Alongside him were the Vice Deans and the instructors and counselors from various departments.
Everyone greeted him.
"Hello, Dean, hello, teachers."
"Hello, Dean Hu, and hello, teachers."
Wen Ning spotted the tall and straight young man walking at the edge of the crowd.
Of course, it wasn't just Wen Ning who recognized him at first sight; the other students did the same.
After all, it is hard not to attract attention when a young, handsome man suddenly appears among a group of middle-aged men in their forties or fifties and stands out from the crowd.
thin law.
Wen Ning remembered that he was a tutor at the School of Biology and also a good friend of Gu Boyan.
Thinking about it this way, it doesn’t seem so strange for someone from the School of Biology to squeeze into the School of Journalism.
Wen Ning nodded lightly at him.
Bo Lu was in a good mood and curled his lips at her, but in his heart he was thinking with some gloating that his friend who had never been interested in women was in trouble this time. The girl had only suffered a little injustice at school, and she immediately urged him to help and support her.
As for why someone didn't come in person, the reason was very simple. Wen Ning was able to get to where she is today because of her own ability and hard work, not the "backing" he provided.
At this moment, Dean Hu stood with his hands behind his back, his face stern and cold as he looked at the girl who had just been speaking so arrogantly but now huddled aside like a quail. He said, "Hey, female student, what's your name?"
The girl named Li Wanwan immediately took a step back, lowered her head, and replied cautiously, "Li Wanwan."
Dean Hu nodded and said, "Li Wanwan, I believe you are the second-best student in the journalism major this year."
Li Wanwan didn't expect that Dean Hu would actually remember the name of an ordinary classmate of hers. She was immediately delighted and said, "It's me, Li Wanwan."
Dean Hu said, "Everyone in the academy is here now. If you feel you've been unfairly treated, feel free to repeat your statement and I will definitely handle it fairly."
At this time, the counselor smiled and said, "Dean, this is just a few quarrels between classmates. There is no need to trouble you."
The head teacher of the Journalism Department followed suit, saying, "Yes, Dean, it's not worth making a fuss about such a small matter. Military training is almost about to begin, so let's see how these students stand in formation."
Originally, today was the first day of military training.
The dean specially came to the playground with the tutors to see the new students' military appearance, and also to encourage everyone and boost morale.
But I didn't expect to encounter such a thing as soon as I entered the playground gate. The two instructors were very dissatisfied with Li Wanwan. What the hell is going on!
But no matter how dissatisfied she is, she is still a student of her major. Watching her commit suicide is a disgrace to the major.
So, both teachers stood up and spoke.
However, Bo Lu raised his lips lazily, "That's not what I meant. Since this student has doubts about the fairness of our college's recruitment rules, as teachers, we naturally have to help solve the problem."
"Firstly, it also maintains the fairness of the school."
"Secondly, it also serves to restore fairness and justice to the students."
The head teacher almost couldn't help but glare at him.
How dare you, a student from the College of Biology, interfere in the affairs of the Journalism School?
But he still smiled awkwardly, "It's just a little fight..."
"This concerns the students of the college. There is no room for trivial matters." Dean Hu looked at the two people who were trying to smooth things over and said seriously.
Li Wanwan was originally very scared, but just now Dean Hu actually remembered her name.
And listening to Dean Hu's words, it was as if he was on his side. For some reason, a sense of confidence suddenly rose in his heart.
So, without further ado, he opened his mouth and said, "Dean Hu, it's her. She was the provincial champion in liberal arts this year. She never had a proper education. She spent the previous three years in a mental hospital being treated for emotional problems. She never had a single day of proper schooling. And the students on the forum are all suspecting that she cheated on the college entrance exam."
Hearing what Li Wan said, Xu Ziyang and the others instantly became so angry that their eyes turned red.
How could this person erase other people's hard work just based on suspicion?
Dean Hu turned to look at Wen Ning, "Wen Ning, our provincial champion in liberal arts this time."
Wen Ning smiled gracefully and replied, "Hello, President Hu. I'm Wen Ning."
Dean Hu stared at Wen Ning intently for a moment. Even though he was being slandered in front of him, Wen Ning showed no sign of anger or annoyance. Instead, he remained calm and composed. He couldn't help but smile, "Not bad, a good prospect."
Li Wanwan felt as if she was hallucinating. Wen Ning was a mental patient, and Dean Hu actually praised her as a good seedling?
Li Wanwan just felt that maybe she had not expressed herself clearly just now and the dean did not understand.
Therefore, he spoke loudly with some impatience.
"Director, look, she spent three years in a mental hospital, and just three months after being released, she took the college entrance exam. How could someone like her get a score of 701? She must have cheated!!!"
Dean Hu's originally warm expression suddenly turned cold and stern. "Do you have any evidence?"
Li Wanwan was stunned. No, this was so obviously unreasonable.
How many students have studied hard for more than ten years before they can barely get a bachelor's degree.
How long has Wen Ning been learning?
Oh, right! She suddenly remembered the latest news on the forum and immediately said excitedly.
"Dean Hu, Wen Ning is only in first grade at 14. Her intelligence level is barely above that of a retard. How could she possibly have scored 701? Her family is wealthy and powerful, so they definitely helped her cheat. Dean, you must investigate!"
Many of the freshmen present and the college tutors actually don’t like to visit the school forum.
After all, those who can get into University A are basically academic masters, and most people think about how to learn more rather than listening to gossip.
Therefore, everyone was shocked when they heard Li Wan say this.
"No way, he's only in first grade at 14. Shouldn't he be in junior high school at this age?"
"Yes, I started first grade at the age of six, and entered the first grade of junior high school at the age of twelve. At the age of fourteen, I was already in the third grade of junior high school, and it was time for me to take the college entrance examination."
"But she seems quite smart to me, not like someone who is mentally retarded."
"Could there be some reason why she hasn't been in school?"
"What reason could there be? Nine-year compulsory education has been popularized for many years. My family is already remote and backward, but I can still go to school."
"Yes, yes. Our country attaches great importance to children's education. There are various subsidies, so it shouldn't be a problem that they can't afford it."
In this era where nine-year compulsory education has been popularized for many years, most students would never think that some people have no chance to go to school at all and have to wait until they are 14 years old to have the opportunity to sit in the classroom and study.
So, everyone expressed their opinions.
Hearing these discussions, Li Wanwan raised the corners of her lips in satisfaction and looked at Wen Ning with some complacency.
Wen Ning's expression remained calm.
The other roommates were very angry.
"What's wrong with you going to first grade at the age of fourteen? What law in the country says that you can't go to school like this?"
"What about Ningning who skipped six grades in one year and went straight to the first grade of junior high at the age of fifteen, completing three years of junior high school in just one year?"
Li Wanwan scoffed at this and said, "Just listen to yourself. Is this possible? You can complete nine years of compulsory education in two years. You don't even believe it yourself."
Xu Ziyang bit his lip and said, "Why shouldn't I believe it? Just because you can't do it doesn't mean others can't do it!"
Liu Man followed closely, "Exactly. There's a disparity in IQ between people. It's not something difficult to understand. Just because you're mediocre yourself, you don't dare acknowledge the genius of others?"
Hearing the ridicule from her roommates, Li Wanwan's face turned red instantly.
Looking back on the past decade or so, she studied very hard every day, fearing that she would fall behind others.
What she hates most is being told that she is mediocre!
"Shut up! No matter how you try to cleanse yourself, the fact that Wen Ning cheated on the college entrance exam remains undeniable."
"Student Li," Wen Ning's calm and cold voice sounded, "From what I've heard from you for so long, it seems you've always had doubts about my academic career. So, you suspect I cheated on the college entrance exam, right?"
Li Wanwan was not intimidated at all. "My suspicions are all well-founded. He's only in first grade at 14. Isn't that enough?"
Wen Ning looked at her and suddenly laughed softly.
Li Wanwan suddenly felt a sense of foreboding and frowned as she asked, "What are you laughing at?"
Wen Ning did not answer her question, but said.
"The story about me being in the first grade of primary school at the age of 14 is true."
Li Wanwan was delighted and said excitedly, "She admitted it, she admitted it!"
But the next second, Wen Ning's indifferent and mocking voice continued to ring out.
"After that, I spent another year skipping to the first grade of junior high school at the age of 15. It took me another full year to complete the three years of junior high school. At the age of 16, I skipped to the first grade of high school."
The smile on Li Wanwan's face froze.
Although Xu Ziyang and others said this angrily, and pointed out that there was a relevant clarification post in the forum.
But this is different from what Wen Ning himself admitted.
Li Wanyi murmured, "Impossible, impossible!"
Wen Ning ignored her and continued, "After that, I was in my first year of high school at the age of 16. At 17, I skipped a grade and went to the first high school in City A as a senior. That was also the year I took my first college entrance exam and scored 657. But because of that exam, I was framed. Not only was my admission letter stolen, but my nominal guardian at the time also forced me to be sent to a mental hospital for three years. I was only released three months ago."
As Wen Ning's words fell.
Li Wanyi shook her head more and more vigorously, "Impossible, impossible."
At this moment, the others were shocked by what Wen Ning said?
"Why did you start school at 14?"
Wen Ning replied with a calm, even somewhat cold look.
"Before I was 14, I lived in the mountains. The nearest school was two hills away, and it took three hours to get there. Besides, they didn't allow me to go to school."
"Oh my God, how could this happen?" The soft-hearted girl immediately covered her mouth and said in disbelief.
At this time, someone asked, "What do you mean by having your admission letter snatched away? Can it still be snatched away?"
But at this moment, Li Wanwan's heart broke when she heard Wen Ning's answer. She screamed, "Impossible! You're only in first grade at 14. You're a retard, not a genius!"
At this point, even the head teacher of the journalism department couldn't stand it anymore and scolded him harshly.
"Shut up, Li Wanwan!"
"We journalists are supposed to collect, report and relay information faithfully, impartially and courageously. Look at what you are doing now!"
"The most basic professional qualities for journalists are political awareness, professional ethics, professional skills, and the ability to adapt to all media. But what about you? How many of these have you achieved?"
"The first point is completely wrong. You haven't adhered to the principle of authenticity, you haven't verified the accuracy of information from all sources, and you've deliberately distorted the truth for your own selfish purposes. You simply read a few posts on the forum and then went on a rampage, slandering Wen Ning!"
"The second point is still completely wrong. It fails to uphold the correct direction of public opinion. What we need to do is to restore and record the truth. But you, on the other hand, only listen to one side and believe it, and are self-righteous!"
"The third point, while possessing both legal and aesthetic awareness, is still completely wrong. You keep claiming that Wen cheated on the college entrance exam, falsified her grades, and that the school shouldn't have admitted her. Yet, you have absolutely no evidence whatsoever and are merely speculating and suspecting. I believe you are the one who most questions the fairness of our country!"
The class teacher was really angry.
He never expected that there would be such a stupid person in the class!
Li Wanwan was stunned by the scolding and felt very embarrassed!
Wen Ning was the one who got high marks despite not having much education, and whose grades were questionable.
How come, she is the one being criticized?
Thinking that Dean Hu still remembered her name, Li Wanwan turned and looked at him eagerly, "Dean."
Dean Hu's face was no longer so gloomy at this time, and instead had a hint of smile on its face.
However, when he saw Li Wanwan, he regained his coldness.
"You're relying solely on your imagination to make random assumptions and smear others. Students like you don't deserve to be in the journalism department, and you don't deserve to be a qualified journalist!"
When Li Wanwan heard Dean Hu speak to her so harshly, she was shocked and said quickly.
"Dean, listen to me. My speculations are all reasonable. How else can Wen Ning explain that he started first grade at 14, was locked up in a mental hospital for three years at 18, and then scored a 701 on the test just three months after being released? This doesn't make sense!"
"Enough!" Dean Hu interrupted her sternly.
