Chapter 651: Relying on Family Connections
The class was in an uproar. Some people started to applaud, while others whispered to An Ke to stop talking. Old Yu's face turned pale, obviously angered by An Ke's words.
He took a deep breath, trying to calm himself, but his tone was still stern: "An Ke, you are disrespecting the teacher! I remind you again, the school's choice does not need to be explained to you, you just need to do your duty!"
"Duty?" An Ke's voice suddenly rose, a hint of sarcasm in it. "Teacher Yu, is our duty to silently accept unfair treatment? If so, then I think such a duty is better off not happening!"
The class suddenly became quiet, and everyone held their breath, waiting for Old Yu's reaction.
Old Yu's face turned from red to white, clearly furious at Anke's words. He pointed at Anke, his fingers trembling slightly. "You...are you trying to rebel? Anke, I'm warning you, if you keep this up, I'll report you to the school!"
An Ke was not afraid at all. She still held her head high and looked directly at Old Yu. "Teacher Yu, feel free to report it. I'm just fighting for the rights we deserve. If the school thinks I'm wrong, then I'm willing to bear the consequences."
The class was filled with whispers again. Someone whispered, "An Ke is so brave, she dares to contradict Old Yu like that." Others shook their heads and said, "If she continues to make trouble like this, it will not do her any good."
At this tense moment, Huang Tianyi suddenly stood up. The person involved stepped forward, and An Ke raised her head even more proudly. "Do you want to explain to everyone how you got a spot on the show? I want to see if there's anything the rest of us can't do."
Huang Tianyi raised her eyebrows, a hint of sarcasm on her lips, and looked nonchalant. "It does take some skill to get a spot. I'm not sure if others can do it, but if you can do it for the encore, it's not impossible for the program team to invite you individually."
An Ke snorted coldly, "Tell me, what is it that I can't do?"
Huang Tianyi's smile deepened, and she said lightly, "We've secured eight million in sponsorship funds for the program."
As soon as Huang Tianyi finished speaking, the entire classroom fell into a dead silence. Everyone's eyes were focused on her, as if time had stopped at this moment.
Anke's expression gradually changed from initial pride and disdain to a stiff expression, and finally solidified and cracked on his face.
Ten seconds later, there was a gasp in the class. "Oh my god, money ability is also a kind of ability." Ding Tong said with emotion.
"Yeah, it doesn't make sense for them to seek sponsorship and then let others appear on the show. I'm not jealous anymore." Liu Fangfei couldn't help but mutter.
An Ke's expression became increasingly grim. She bit her lip, trying to regain her composure. "Eight million? How did you manage to secure so much sponsorship? Did you rely on family connections?"
Huang Tianyi nodded seriously, "Yes, it's just relying on family connections, what's the problem with that?"
Anke was choked and speechless, her fingers tightly gripping the corner of the table, her knuckles turning white. She obviously didn't expect Huang Tianyi to be so frank that she was speechless.
Old Yu's gaze towards Huang Tianyi was filled with a complex emotion. He cleared his throat, trying to break the awkward atmosphere. "Alright, let's end this matter here. Huang Tianyi was able to secure sponsorship thanks to her ability, and the school chose her after careful consideration. Anke, if you have any objections, please raise them privately with the school. Don't cause trouble in class."
An Ke finally sat back down, biting her lip. The classroom returned to calm, but there were still waves in everyone's eyes.
