The next day.

Early in the morning, the alarm clock Zhou Yu had set in advance rang at seven o'clock.

Zhou Yu, wrapped in a quilt and enjoying the air conditioning, did not continue to stay in bed. Instead, he stretched, yawned, picked up the air conditioner remote control beside his pillow and turned it off. Then, Zhou Yu lifted the quilt, got out of bed, put on slippers, and went to the bathroom to wash up.

Since today's morning reading and the first class were not his, Zhou Yu calmly washed his face, brushed his teeth, and changed his clothes and shoes.

By the time he had prepared everything, changed his clothes and went out, it was already 7:20.

Zhou Yu did not go to the office immediately, but slowly came to the cafeteria to have breakfast first.

Since it was still during the morning reading period, there were basically no people in the cafeteria. Looking around, there were only three or two people sitting scattered around in the huge cafeteria. Judging from their clothes, they should be teachers or teaching staff.

Zhou Yu ran straight to the window, skipped the stalls selling noodles and wontons, and went straight to the window selling breakfast. He bought two buns, an egg, and a glutinous rice cake, then got a bowl of porridge, and then found a seat to sit down, ready to enjoy today's breakfast.

As he was enjoying his meal, a plate was placed in front of Zhou Yu. Then, he caught a glimpse of a familiar figure out of the corner of his eye.

"Teacher Zhou, what a coincidence? You are having breakfast now too?" Feng Zhiqiang picked up a boiled egg and knocked it on the table. While knocking, he looked at Zhou Yu and asked with a smile.

Seeing that it was Feng Zhiqiang who took the initiative to greet him, Zhou Yu hurriedly swallowed the bun in his mouth and greeted Feng Zhiqiang, "Good morning, Director Feng. I don't have classes this morning, so I got up a little late."

Feng Zhiqiang ate the peeled boiled egg in a few bites, picked up the bowl and drank a mouthful of porridge, then chatted casually with Zhou Yu, ""

When he said this, Feng Zhiqiang glanced at the breakfast in Zhou Yu's bowl and asked, "I remember that Teacher Zhou seems to be from the north, right? People from the north tend to eat noodles more in the morning, don't they?"

Zhou Yu nodded, "Yes, there are. People in the north eat more noodles. But there are also many people like me in the morning, who like to drink porridge, eat eggs and breakfast."

Feng Zhiqiang echoed Zhou Yu and said with a smile, "That's true. It really depends on personal habits. I remember watching a movie before, in which there was a child who was born and raised in Inner Mongolia. Her family was used to eating meat, but she was born to love rice and vegetables."

The two of them were chatting while eating breakfast. When they talked about school, Feng Zhiqiang suddenly changed the subject and talked about what happened during the evening self-study class last night.

"Teacher Zhou's evening study session last night had a great response from the students in your class!" Feng Zhiqiang took the initiative to talk about the situation when Zhou Yu met with those students last night. "I heard that after Teacher Zhou finished speaking, those students were full of energy and studied hard! This method of motivating enthusiasm, Teacher Zhou, you are really good at leading students!"

Feng Zhiqiang knew what happened in the class last night early this morning. As for who told it, there is no need to say more.

Zhou Yu smiled a little embarrassed. Being mentioned to him in person, Zhou Yu still felt a little embarrassed. "It's nothing. I don't know how to motivate students. I just thought that when I was in Wuzhou Middle School, I was able to get those students into 985 and 211 universities. There's no reason why our students with a better foundation in No. 2 Middle School can't do it!"

"So, I just told them this fact, letting them know that as long as they want and work hard, the next 985 or 211 university will be born from among them."

"Well said!" Feng Zhiqiang said excitedly, "What our school lacks right now is a young, passionate and capable teacher like Teacher Zhou! Thanks to our Principal Wang. If it weren't for Principal Wang, our No. 2 Middle School would have missed out on a talent like you, Teacher Zhou!"

After that, Feng Zhiqiang patted his chest and assured Zhou Yu, "Teacher Zhou, if you need anything in the future, just tell me directly. I will help you directly within my authority. This way, you don't have to bother Principal Wang and Vice Principal Li every time!"

Feng Zhiqiang took the initiative to give Zhou Yu a hint. Zhou Yu thanked him repeatedly, but he still couldn't figure out why the other party did this. In the end, he could only attribute it to the fact that the other party's nephew was in his class, so he did this in order to make him pay more attention to and take care of Gong Jinkang.

"Okay, let's put it this way," Feng Zhiqiang said to Zhou Yu with a smile after finishing the last mouthful of porridge, "By the way, Teacher Zhou, I heard that you told the principal before that if someone in your class falls behind in their studies, you should just replace them if you think there's a problem?"

Zhou Yu nodded, "Yes, I did say that."

Feng Zhiqiang smiled and nodded, praising, "Great, great! Teacher Zhou is strict, that's good! Ah, Teacher Zhou, if Gong Jinkang gets lax in the future, you must not consider my face, you must scold him harshly!"

Zhou Yu understood.

Feng Zhiqiang's last words finally made Zhou Yu understand what he meant.

Well, no wonder he came to get close to me so early in the morning. It turned out that he knew that there was such an agreement between me and Wang Hongwen. Now Feng Zhiqiang was worried that if his nephew Gong Jinkang really fell behind, and I was too foolish to give him, the dean of studies, face and directly asked the principal to kick his nephew out, who would I go to for justice then?

Asking the principal to intercede for this matter would not only lose face, but also lose money. In any case, he would be unpopular both inside and outside, so Feng Zhiqiang came here to buy insurance in advance.

Zhou Yu was not the kind of person that Feng Zhiqiang thought was unkind, so in the face of Feng Zhiqiang's kindness, Zhou Yu just smiled and nodded, "Don't worry, Director Feng, if Gong Jinkang's grades really drop, then I will definitely find you, and you will have to help discipline him then."

Seeing that Zhou Yu understood what he meant and gave him a promise, Feng Zhiqiang finally felt relieved.

As a result, Feng Zhiqiang was in a happier mood. "Haha, OK, Mr. Zhou, you eat first. I'll go get busy first! Later, I'll find a chance. My sister and brother-in-law are planning to treat you to a simple meal."

I wanted to take a day off to rest, but after thinking about it, I decided not to.
