Interviewed

Xu Honghan took the elevator to the private collection room on the seventh floor of the library. When he opened the door, he was shocked to see Zong Qinghai standing in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling window looking down.

The floor-to-ceiling windows in the private collection room are one-way glass, so you can only see outside from the inside, but not from the outside.

Looking down from the floor-to-ceiling windows here, you can have a clear view of the escalators from the first to the sixth floor and the surrounding corridors.

"Master Zong." Xu Honghan walked behind Zong Qinghai and said respectfully.

Zong Qinghai turned around and looked at him with a smile, "Honghan, you're here."

"The students have come to say goodbye to you."

"Has the project in the northwest been implemented?"

"yes."

"Work hard. If you can complete this project, you may be remembered in history in the future." Zong Qinghai said jokingly.

Xu Honghan said, "Even if he is famous in history, it will be Master Chen who will be famous in history. I am just doing odd jobs and learning from him."

Zong Qinghai was very pleased with his words. "It's good that you think this way. Young people should gain more experience. There will be plenty of opportunities to achieve great things in the future... ahem..."

As he was speaking, Zong Qinghai suddenly couldn't help coughing.

Xu Honghan quickly stepped forward and helped him sit down. "Master Zong, why are you coughing again? How about I take you to the hospital?"

"It's okay." Zong Qinghai waved his hand. "It's just an old problem. I just need to drink some water."

Xu Honghan picked up the water cup and went to the side to fill a glass for Zong Qinghai and handed it to him. "If you ask me, you'd better rest at home."

"I feel bored at home alone, so I like to come to the library. Seeing so many young people studying hard here, I feel happy. Young people are the hope of the country," Zong Qinghai said with emotion.

Hearing what Zong Qinghai said, Xu Honghan said, "Just now when I came here, I saw a little girl reading 'Newton's Three Laws', and I couldn't help but ask her. She's only in the sixth grade and hasn't graduated from elementary school yet, but she said she likes physics. I was so happy to hear that."

Zong Qinghai smiled and picked up a copy of the Nancheng Morning Newspaper, handing it to Xu Honghan. "Is this the girl you're talking about?"

His thin, dry, and wrinkled fingers tapped on a black and white picture in the lower right corner of the morning paper. The picture showed Jiang Zhizhi, who had just rescued Li Rongrong from the water.

Her hair and clothes were soaked, but her eyes were exceptionally bright.

"It's her! It turns out her foot was injured while saving someone!"

If someone else was injured while saving someone else, they would probably want everyone to know about it, but Jiang Zhizhi didn't mention it at all just now.

"Which floor did you see her on?"

"On the third floor. She is changing the gauze in the bathroom. Such a small girl, but she looks so resilient." Xu Honghan couldn't help but praise her.

Suddenly, he reacted and asked curiously, "Master Zong, how do you know that the girl I met is her? Do you know her?"

Zong Qinghai smiled and said, "I also met that little girl once."

Xu Honghan looked at Zong Qinghai's expression and secretly sighed that this little girl was blessed.

In order to become Zong Lao's disciple, he had to fight hard among thousands of students, but this little girl won Zong Qinghai's favor at such a young age.

"Master, if you like her, why not accept her as your disciple?" Xu Honghan looked at Jiang Zhizhi's innocent face in the newspaper and said, "This little girl is not only diligent in her studies, but also has such good character. She will definitely not bring shame to you in the future."

Especially since Jiang Zhizhi didn't tell everyone that her foot was injured while saving someone, Xu Honghan appreciated her even more.

In their line of work, once a project involves confidential information, they must keep it a secret, even to their closest people.

Jiang Zhizhi has such a steady personality at such a young age, she is indeed a good seedling.

Zong Qinghai just smiled faintly and said, "It's too early to say that."

He didn't agree, but he didn't refuse directly either.

Xu Honghan immediately understood that Zong Qinghai did have this idea.

Back then, as Zong Qinghai's last student before his retirement, everyone said that he was Zong Qinghai's last disciple. But now it seems that his title of last disciple will not last long.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Jiang Zhizhi rushed to Lu Xiye's residence. She pressed the doorbell, and it took a while before someone came to open the door.

"Who are you looking for?" The person who opened the door was a middle-aged woman in her forties with a bun on her hair. Her hands were wet and she wiped them on her apron while asking her.

"Are you Aunt Zhou?" Lu Xiye had mentioned her before. Jiang Zhizhi said politely, "I'm Lu Xiye's classmate. Is he here?"

"Xiaoye is not here. He went out to play ball with his classmates."

When Jiang Zhizhi heard how Aunt Zhou addressed Lu Xiye, she felt like laughing.

But she politely held back, "Okay, then I'll come see him later."

"Little sister, what do you want to talk to him about? I see your foot is injured too. Why don't you come in and wait. I'll call him."

Jiang Zhizhi hesitated for a moment, then nodded and went in.

Aunt Zhou poured her a glass of water and asked, "Are you the one who came to study with Xiaoye after school recently?"

"Did Lu Xiye tell you?"

"No, I found it when I was cleaning. Xiaoye never did his homework before, but now there are piles of draft papers in the study every day. I saw that the handwriting was different, so I thought that there must be a classmate studying with him."

As she spoke, she called Lu Xiye on her home phone.

After a while, Lu Xiye answered the phone. He sounded slightly breathless, probably because he had just played basketball.

"Hello?"

"Xiaoye, your classmates are here."

Lu Xiye glanced at the time on his phone and said unhappily, "Didn't I tell you to pack up and leave early this afternoon? Why haven't you left yet?"

Aunt Zhou knows Jiang Zhizhi, and his father will know it sooner or later.

Thinking of this, Lu Xiye felt annoyed.

"I just finished packing and was about to leave." Aunt Zhou said good-temperedly.

"I'll go back now. You'd better leave quickly. Don't tell my dad that I'm looking for someone to tutor me!" Lu Xiye said, picked up the clothes thrown aside, and was about to leave the basketball court.

Zhao Zhiyong was a little reluctant to see Lu Xiye go back, "It's only three o'clock, why are you going back?"

"Something happened! Fight it yourselves!" Lu Xiye was like a powder keg about to explode.

Aunt Zhou hung up the phone and smiled at Jiang Zhizhi, "Then I'll go back. You guys study hard. If Xiaoye's grades can improve, I don't know how happy Mr. Lu will be!"

Maybe she can get a raise by then.

After Aunt Zhou left, Jiang Zhizhi took her schoolbag and went straight to the study.

Jiang Zhizhi borrowed six books from the library today. She wanted to finish reading them as soon as possible and go there a few more times before the holiday so that she could earn more money.

Just as I was watching intently, I heard the sound of a door opening downstairs.

After a while, Lu Xiye ran upstairs and ran to the door of the study, sweating all over. "Why are you here so early?"

Jiang Zhizhi said, "It's getting late. It's three forty now. After four hours, it will be almost eight o'clock."

"Did Aunt Zhou say anything to you just now?"

"Nothing, she just wants us to study hard." Jiang Zhizhi said lightly.

Lu Xiye snorted and sat down angrily.

Jiang Zhizhi smelled the sweat on his body and frowned slightly, "Why don't you take a shower first."

"Can taking a shower be counted as tutoring time?" Lu Xiye felt that studying for four hours today was too long and was simply challenging his limits.

Jiang Zhizhi knew that he wanted to be lazy, and she herself didn't want to stay here for too long.

But seeing Lu Xiye like this, she didn't want him to get his wish.

"Not really." She said coldly.

Lu Xiye curled his lips and turned to take a shower.

Bathing was not included in the tutoring time, so he didn't take too long. He only showered twice, changed into black and white striped pajamas and ran back.

Jiang Zhizhi took a look and felt that this guy looked like he had just come out of a police station in this outfit.

"Do the test."

She pushed the exercise book towards him.

Including the two-day weekend, there are a total of seven days of holiday for Labor Day.

During these seven days, Jiang Zhizhi hardly took a break and she made more than 10,000 yuan at once and deposited it into the system account.

Before the holiday, she went to the library again, returned the books she had read, and borrowed six new books.

As soon as they returned to school on Monday, Jiang Zhizhi, Lin Qingyu and Xu Qingbo were called to the principal's office during the first class.

As soon as they entered, they saw the stranger in the principal's office besides the principal and the head teacher Xu Haiyan.

But he was not a complete stranger. They had seen him at Hongye Mountain on Wednesday, the man who claimed to be a newspaper reporter.

"The school already knows about what happened to you guys at Hongye Mountain. This is reporter Wen from South City Morning News. He wants to interview you. Don't be nervous, just say whatever you want to say." The principal said to Jiang Zhizhi and the other two with a pleasant face.

Xu Haiyan, the homeroom teacher, also said, "You did a great job this time. The school has decided to commend you. After the reporter Wen interviewed you, he will take photos of you and publish them in the newspaper. This will also bring honor to our school."

A few days ago, the story of Jiang Zhizhi and others saving people was published in the newspaper, which caused quite a stir.

Jiang Zhizhi and the others handled the crisis in an orderly manner, rescuing the student from the water and performing artificial respiration, thus freeing the student from danger. The newspaper used this as a gimmick, praising their school's education, the teachers' training, and the friendly and supportive relationship among the students...

Especially Jiang Zhizhi, Lin Qingyu and Xu Qingbo are the top three in the class, which is simply the model of excellent top students.

Now the primary school affiliated to Nanshi No. 1 Middle School has become very popular!

Even more popular than the No. 1 Middle School in the city.

Xu Qingbo said, "Teacher, it was Jiang Zhizhi who jumped into the water to save Li Rongrong. The rest of us did nothing."

Xu Haiyan smiled and said, "You did a great job too. You and Lin Qingyu also gave Li Rongrong artificial respiration, right?"

If Jiang Zhizhi was the only one who saved the man, how could it reflect the school's cultivation of outstanding students?

Only when it is a group that saves people can the importance and criticality of school education be reflected.

"Teacher, are there only three of us? Should we let Lu Xiye come too?" Xu Qingbo asked.

If he and Lin Qingyu could both come here, then Lu Xiye, who had the wit to quickly use bamboo to drag Jiang Zhizhi and Li Rongrong up, should also be here.

When the principal heard Xu Qingbo mention Lu Xiye, he coughed lightly and said, "The school has also given awards to other people. Don't ask too much. Go to the reading room with reporter Wen for an interview. Teacher Xu, take them there."
