Rong Zhaonan looked at the nervous girl trapped in front of his desk and couldn't help but chuckle: "So you mean you want me to endure it for a few days?"
Ning Yuan was speechless, unsure of what to say!
Rong Zhaonan felt very good when he saw her face, which was both shy and embarrassed, and she wanted to say something but dared not, and could only hold it in.
"Just focus on your studies and don't let your mind wander. After you finish your college entrance exam, I'll teach you some self-defense techniques suitable for girls." Rong Zhaonan pinched her round little face decisively.
He might really be malicious, and he's enjoying bullying curly-haired rabbits more and more.
Ning Yuan lowered her head: "Don't... keep messing with me, then I won't overthink things... Wait, you said you were going to teach me self-defense?"
She suddenly raised her round face and looked at Rong Zhaonan in surprise: "Really?"
Doing business really requires learning some self-defense skills. Even just a few moves can save your life in the most critical moments!
Rong Zhaonan reached out and ruffled her hair: "It's true. When have I ever lied to you? Go read a book. I'll go prepare a midnight snack for you."
The doting tone in his words made Ning Yuan's heart skip a beat, and she subconsciously looked into his eyes.
He was looking down at her, his eyes deep and unfathomable, like a lake that could drown a person.
Ning Yuan trembled and lowered her eyelashes. He was too handsome. When he was cold, he kept people at arm's length, but when he was gentle, people had nowhere to escape.
Just like now, his gentleness is devoid of any lust, like a simple older brother doting on his younger sister, making it even more irresistible.
"Okay," she said softly.
Seeing her uncomfortable expression and her little ears turning red, Rong Zhaonan turned and left in a good mood.
Curly-haired rabbits should be tempted...
Old Xu is right. You have to be gentle with girls, give them some sweetness, and pamper them. You can't just force them.
Compared to that simpleton Chen Chen, that sly old Xu knows much more.
...
The day before the college entrance examination, all students have to go to pick up their admission tickets.
Just as Ning Yuan parked her bicycle, a sinister voice suddenly rang out behind her.
"Ning, good grades don't mean you're a good person. It's useless for someone with bad character to get into university, don't you think?"
Ning Yuan turned her head and saw that Director Wang, who was somewhat bald, was standing at the school gate at some point, looking at her with a gloomy expression.
Ning Yuan narrowed her large, dark eyes: "Director Wang is right. Some people bully and harass their classmates, treating them like fools, and in the end, they end up not being able to study and getting married early. Don't you think they deserve it?"
Director Wang's expression changed instantly: "You..."
Ning Yuan ignored her, locked the car, turned around and left with her schoolbag on her back.
"Hmph, let's see how long you can be so smug!" Director Wang brushed the patch of hair he had deliberately grown long down his head to the bald spots.
Then, he turned around and went upstairs to his office with a face so dark it looked like it was about to drip water.
The desks in the teaching affairs office were piled high with exam admission tickets, and the senior high school teachers were counting and verifying them.
Director Wang's mind flashed back to the image of his niece, Lin Juanzi, and her sister hugging and crying.
"You just stand by and watch your niece get bullied by female hooligans at your school and forced into marriage by male hooligans, and do nothing? What kind of dean of students are you?!"
His sister pointed her finger at him and cursed.
He rubbed the bald patches on his head and glanced at the teachers from several classes who were counting the admission tickets.
A glint flashed in his eyes, and he walked over without making a sound, stopping at the basket containing the admission tickets for Class 2 of Senior Three. Ye Chengxin was counting the admission tickets.
"Director Ye, your class has a very good chance of producing the top scorer in the county's No. 2 High School." Director Wang smiled and patted Ye Chengxin on the shoulder.
Ye Chengxin was disgusted by his greasy appearance as he leaned in, so she stepped back and turned her face away, saying, "Thank you for your kind words."
In that instant, Director Wang had already taken away the admission ticket with Ning Yuan's name on it and replaced it with another admission ticket with the same name on it.
He then left quickly.
No one in the office noticed his actions.
Then a teacher who was in charge of distributing the admission tickets counted the stack of admission tickets for Class 2 of Senior Three and instructed Ye Chengxin: "Teacher Ye, your class's admission tickets have been counted three times. You can sign and take them away."
Ye Chengxin and several teachers carefully checked the documents three times before Ye Chengxin signed and took his admission ticket: "Okay."
Watching Ye Chengxin leave with his exam admission ticket, Director Wang revealed a sinister smile. "Hmph!"
He wanted to see how Ning Yuan would take the college entrance examination with a fake admission ticket.
Ye Chengxin took the admission tickets to Class 2 of Senior Three, distributed each ticket to a student, and solemnly adjusted his glasses—
"Tomorrow is the first day of our journey, a day when thousands will be fighting their way across a single-plank bridge! Your time to be tested has come! Students, do you have the confidence?"
Everyone raised their hands, excitedly and nervously tossing their thick test papers and textbooks into the air—"Yes!!"
Ning Yuan looked at the exam papers fluttering everywhere, clutching her admission ticket in her hand, her heart surging with emotion.
Students decades from now may not understand that the immense pressure of exams, which they utterly despise, represented an opportunity that millions of people longed for to change their fate decades ago.
Taking the college entrance examination takes into account family background and ancestral origins; recommendations and school registration are required.
Those from families with any negative backgrounds are ineligible to take the college entrance examination.
In her previous life, her family background was decent, but when she first entered the factory, she hadn't worked for five years. The workshop wouldn't recommend her, and she didn't have a school registration, so she couldn't take the college entrance examination.
However, many people who have worked for five years are already over the age of 25 to take the college entrance examination... and are therefore ineligible to participate.
In addition, during the years immediately following the resumption of the college entrance examination, universities did not expand their enrollment, resulting in an alarmingly low admission rate.
If you can pass the exam, you're considered a chosen one, and the government will guarantee you a job and housing.
She had been waiting and waiting all her life... and finally she had the opportunity to take the college entrance examination, with such a great professor from Fudan University, Professor Tang, helping her prepare.
No matter what, she's determined to prove herself!
After receiving her exam admission ticket, Ning Yuan left the classroom.
As a result, she saw Vice Principal Julie standing at the end of the corridor.
She was taken aback for a moment, then walked over and said, "Vice Principal Zhu."
Vice Principal Zhu looked at her and smiled gently: "So, are you confident?"
Ning Yuan smiled, her big eyes crinkling, "All I can say is that I will do my best!"
"I believe you will bring honor to the school!" Vice Principal Zhu nodded with satisfaction. Ning Yuan possessed a maturity beyond her years.
He adjusted his glasses and casually took an exam admission ticket out of his pocket and handed it to her.
Ning Yuan took it and looked at the admission ticket. The admission ticket number was different from the one she had received before, but everything else was the same.
She showed no surprise, carefully putting away the exam admission ticket: "It seems Director Wang has finally taken action."
As Director Wang was Lin Juanzi's uncle, she had to be wary of him, so she had arranged for someone to monitor "Old Wang next door" long ago.
When she saw Vice Principal Zhu in the corridor, she guessed it—Director Wang couldn't resist switching her exam admission ticket.
"Old Wang next door" really does bad things.
Vice Principal Zhu's face was cold and stern: "Just as you expected, I will definitely not let him off this time. He actually confiscated a student's admission ticket for his own personal grudge."
Ning Yuan chuckled lightly: "If someone like him becomes the principal, it's truly the beginning of bad luck for the students of No. 2 Middle School."
Although she only studied at the county's No. 2 High School for a few months, it was her alma mater, and she couldn't let it be ruined by someone like Director Wang.
"You're still a student, so focus on the college entrance exam first. I'll report this matter to higher authorities together with Vice Principal Zhu." Ye Chengxin's voice rang out behind them.
Her face was very serious. She hadn't expected that Director Wang would actually steal the students' exam admission tickets from her.
Ning Yuan not only contacted Vice Principal Zhu in advance, but also her homeroom teacher Ye Chengxin.
A single piece of evidence is insufficient; this matter must have two witnesses.
"Here, Teacher Ye." Ning Yuan handed the fake admission ticket from Director Wang to Ye Chengxin.
Even if Director Wang doesn't do anything wrong, her prior arrangements with Vice Principal Zhu and Ye Chengxin won't make a difference.
Now that we have witnesses and physical evidence, Director Wang's term as head of education won't last long.
