Principal Dai recalled the students in wheelchairs and remembered only two red cheeks that looked like monkey bottoms.
Holding up those tacky plastic flowers, it instantly transports you back to the 1980s.
"What's wrong with the child's leg?" Principal Dai asked.
I've never heard that Xu Zhe is a disabled child.
I haven't heard of any disabled children among the new students admitted this year.
"I fell," Xu Zhengxi replied.
Principal Dai responded with an "Oh".
He judged in his heart that Xu Zhe was either a naughty child or an unlucky one.
After the opening ceremony of the school anniversary celebration concluded, the guests on the stage left.
Xu Zhengxi was invited to Principal Dai's office for a short chat.
Secretary Chen also went along.
The three of them discussed the education system before moving on to their private conversation.
"Chen Cheng, how's it going working for your Boss Xu?"
Principal Dai asked his favorite student with a smile.
“Xu XX is my role model. Following Xu XX means I can eat. His housekeeper, Zhou, always saves food for me.”
Secretary Chen subtly flattered the boss and then thanked Butler Zhou in front of the boss.
Principal Dai laughed at him for only caring about eating, but Secretary Chen didn't mind and continued to steer the conversation toward what he wanted to say.
“Miss Zhe is also very interesting. We fought side by side and formed a deep revolutionary friendship with her dormitory.”
Secretary Chen deliberately left a hook in the message.
Sure enough, Old Dai took the bait:
"Fight side by side? What kind of fight?"
Principal Dai's forehead wrinkles rose as he wondered why this kid, who had already graduated, was still hanging out with freshmen.
Secretary Chen smiled mysteriously and took out his phone.
Haha, he swore that day that he would definitely talk to the president about the department head at the school anniversary celebration!
Secretary Chen turned on the "interrogation" video of Bei Xiaoyu, turned the volume up to the maximum, and handed it to Principal Dai.
Xu Zhengxi didn't stop him, leaning back on the sofa. His legs were crossed, relaxed and elegant. His eyes, however, grew even darker, shrouded in a chilling aura.
Principal Dai's face grew increasingly grim, and his hand holding the phone trembled.
Hearing the department head's scolding repeat itself, Secretary Chen forcefully suppressed the corners of his mouth. The old principal's expression pleased him greatly!
After the video finished playing, Principal Dai angrily ripped off his glasses and threw them onto the coffee table.
Secretary Chen hurriedly went to retrieve her phone, worried that it might also be used as a punching bag.
Principal Dai had a stern face, his chest heaving.
"I see."
He caught his breath and gave instructions to the two people beside him.
Secretary Chen pressed down hard on the corners of her mouth again, trying to keep them from getting too smug.
What he swore to do that night has now been accomplished.
Now we just have to wait and see what Principal Dai does.
Xu Zhengxi then slowly began to speak:
"Principal Dai, finance is Nancheng University's flagship major."
Principal Dai looked up and realized that the kid had more to say.
"Go on," he urged Xu Zhengxi to continue.
"The head of a top-tier department wields considerable power, but also faces numerous temptations. Those with impure motives cannot resist them."
Xu Zhengxi spoke in a low, melancholic tone, leaving out his entire sentence, yet saying it all at once.
Principal Dai grabbed the glasses from the coffee table, adjusted the temples, and put them back on his ears.
Do you have one ready-made?
Principal Dai extended his hand to Xu Zhengxi, palm up.
Xu Zhengxi remained expressionless, glancing at the old man's palm.
Then, unhurriedly, he took a USB flash drive out of his trouser pocket.
Principal Dai took it and held it in his hand. He looked like he was about to go out and tear the department head to pieces.
Secretary Chen was truly astonished by the actions of the leaders and the principal.
I never imagined Xu XX would be so determined to get rid of the department head!
Unexpectedly, Xu XX made such thorough preparations that he knocked out Xu XX with a single blow.
And then there's Principal Dai, who seems to communicate telepathically, uttering only a few words yet exchanging so much information...
A knock sounded on the office door; someone was gently knocking from the outside.
Secretary Chen got up to open the door.
Standing outside the door was a female student, with shoulder-length short hair, silver-rimmed glasses, and clean, elegant clothes, exuding a scholarly air.
"Hello, I'm looking for Principal Dai." The man smiled at Secretary Chen.
Secretary Chen stepped back to clear the door: "Principal Dai, he's here to see you."
The man took two steps into the room, his voice clear and crisp: "Principal."
"Shuning!"
Principal Dai stood up, his anger dissipating and replaced by a smile. "Come in and sit down! Perfect timing, Zhengxi is here too."
Seeing that the three of them knew each other and must have something to talk about, Secretary Chen took his leave and closed the door behind him.
Xu Zhengxi remained seated on the sofa, not getting up to greet Principal Dai, but merely nodding slightly towards Jiang Shuning without even raising his eyes.
"Shuning, when did you arrive?" Principal Dai began the small talk.
"I came here early this morning, listened to Xu xx's speech, and watched the celebration ceremony."
As Jiang Shuning replied, she stole another glance at Xu Zhengxi.
Seeing that he still maintained that aloof and indifferent demeanor, she curled her slender fingers into her palms.
Principal Dai observed the interaction between the two, as he had a long-standing relationship with the elders of the Pei and Jiang families.
Both sets of elders had spoken to him, telling him to do everything in his power to bring the two young people together whenever he had the chance.
Principal Dai looked at Xu Zhengxi and Jiang Shuning. Their family backgrounds were well-matched, and they were both children with ideals and abilities.
Is it Xu Zhengxi who thinks he can look down on Jiang Shuning just because he's good-looking?!
Principal Dai jokingly asked, "So you're here so early to see Zhengxi?"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Shuning lowered her head, her face turning bright red, and her earlobes throbbed as if they were about to bleed.
