Although Zhou Yu's tone became calmer, Feng Zhiqiang didn't seem to notice that Zhou Yu's mood had changed. He still chatted with Zhou Yu enthusiastically about Wuzhou Middle School. "Ever since I knew that you were coming to our school, Teacher Zhou, I specifically asked Lao Yin about you."

"Oh my, I didn't know until I heard it, I was shocked! I didn't expect that you, Teacher Zhou, are so strong! After you came to our school, it was simply like adding wings to a tiger, the icing on the cake!"

"Originally, I was quite critical of our principal's expense in inviting you, but after seeing your strength, Teacher Zhou, I only had one feeling! It is our principal Wang who has a keen eye for talent!"

Maybe he noticed that Zhou Yu's expression was not right, but after mentioning Yin Xiangdong, Feng Zhiqiang did not mention Wuzhou Middle School again. Instead, he changed the topic and immediately praised Zhou Yu, and also praised

Of course, it is possible that Feng Zhiqiang said all these words just for the last sentence.

After such praise, Zhou Yu's expression immediately looked much better.

Just as he was about to speak, he was interrupted by Li Jianping, "Hey, Old Feng, you are too tactless. Teacher Zhou has traveled all the way here from another place. How can he eat now? Maybe he is starving! Can't we wait until we eat to talk? Why do we have to stand here and talk now?"

With Li Jianping's reminder, Feng Zhiqiang finally reacted and apologized quickly, "Oh, Teacher Zhou, I'm sorry, it's my fault, it's my fault!" After saying that, he immediately turned to Wang Hongwen, looked at Wang Hongwen, and asked, "Principal, shall we go to the restaurant now?"

Wang Hongwen nodded, looked at Zhou Yu, and said with a smile, "Then Teacher Zhou, how about we go over there now?"

Zhou Yu nodded repeatedly, closed the door, and walked out of the apartment building.

The dining area is on the second floor of the cafeteria that I visited not long ago.

"We eat in the cafeteria, on the second floor," the group chatted as they walked. Wang Hongwen explained to Zhou Yu why they went to the cafeteria. "Although teachers and students eat together, there are still a few private rooms reserved on the second floor."

"The private rooms are mainly for entertaining leaders when they come to inspect. Eating in your own cafeteria, you know the people inside and out, and you feel more at ease. Of course, there is another very important reason, the cost will be lower than eating out."

"In addition, the private rooms are open to the public. As long as you pay, you can go in and eat. So sometimes when teachers or parents come to the school, they can treat them to a meal in the private rooms on the second floor of the cafeteria."

As they were talking, they had already arrived at one of the private rooms on the second floor of the cafeteria.

There were still a few people sitting in the private room. When they saw Zhou Yu, Wang Hongwen and his group come in, they all stood up and greeted them.

"Principal Wang! Principal Li! Director Feng!"

"Principal, Director, you are here."

"The leader is here. Is this Teacher Zhou?"

...

...

"Come on, let me introduce you to everyone!" After entering the private room and sitting down, Wang Hongwen began to introduce everyone present, "The young talent next to me is Zhou Yu, who will soon become one of us, Teacher Zhou!"

Afterwards, Wang Hongwen gave a brief introduction to Zhou Yu's resume and began to introduce other people present to Zhou Yu.

"Mr. Zhou, the teacher opposite you who is wearing glasses and looks kind is Mr. Chen Qi, who will be teaching you Mathematics in Class 27.

"The tall teacher next to Teacher Chen Qi is Mr. Zhang Rendong, who teaches your English class;"

"...Geography teacher Liu Minchao;"

"...politics teacher Yu Mingmin;"

"...History teacher Zhou Qinghe."

Every time Wang Hongwen introduced a teacher, the information of that teacher given by Wang Hongwen would automatically emerge in Zhou Yu's mind. Soon, all the main teachers were introduced, and Wang Hongwen greeted them and started eating.

"Come, let's have a drink with Teacher Zhou!" As soon as the dinner started, Wang Hongwen asked everyone to raise their glasses and toast Zhou Yu. "I hope that after Teacher Zhou comes to our No. 2 Middle School, he will continue to shine and achieve better results than when he was at Wuzhou Middle School!"

...

...

While Zhou Yu was dealing with the dinner, inside Ruxu No. 2 Middle School, except for the street lights which were still on, most buildings such as the main teaching building and office building were dark.

Only the four-story teaching building belonging to the senior classes had all the lights on. Students were walking into the building one after another with their textbooks, waiting for the evening self-study to begin.

The four-story teaching building, the first, second and third floors are basically used by science classes, only the few classrooms on the fourth floor are used by liberal arts classes.

Unlike the key classes that had dinner early, rested for a while and then went to the classroom for evening self-study, the several ordinary classes of liberal arts still had students walking towards the classroom in groups of three or two until before seven o'clock.

Senior 3 (24) Class.

There is no difference between this class and the other 7 liberal arts classes. There are currently more than 40 students in the senior year (24) class. By the time of the college entrance examination next year, most of these 40 students will not be able to enter undergraduate studies.

Their only way out is to either repeat their studies, prepare for another year, and try their best to get into undergraduate school; or, they can only choose to study in a seemingly decent junior college, hoping that after two years of study, they can be promoted to undergraduate school and continue their studies.

Or, they can choose neither.

Although the college entrance examination is an important turning point in life and an important path, it is not the only path.

Many people, by taking other paths, eventually become winners in life.

But, after all, this is only a small number of people.

If nothing unexpected happens, Peng Bolin may eventually be one of those who fail the exam, and the option waiting for him will be to go to a technical college. Of course, the more likely possibility is that he will pack his luggage and take the money given by his parents to go south or north to work in big cities he has never been to.

Of course, he could have chosen a different path initially.

It's just that he made a mistake in one of his life choices.
