Teacher Zhou continued, trembling, "The day before yesterday, I lost my temper in class and abandoned my professional conduct as a teacher. I shouldn't have lost my discipline because I had too high expectations for Jiang and was too eager for her to succeed..."
He was crying his eyes out, "I just wanted Jiang to make progress like the other students. After all, she's been in school for five years. Waaah, it's my fault, Dean. I'm so incompetent that Jiang hasn't even been able to forge a first-grade weapon after five years of study..."
At this point, Teacher Zhou became excited, "You don't know, Jiang finally forged a weapon today! And it's a second-grade weapon!!!"
Jiang Ziqi, “…” He really put on a convincing act.
Ah, she should learn the art of speaking from Teacher Zhou. He speaks in a progressive manner, making her feel like he's a good teacher who cares about her wholeheartedly.
Huo Pingsheng didn't comment on Teacher Zhou's words. He looked at Jiang Ziqi and asked, "Ziqi, what do you say?"
Jiang Ziqi already knew that Yan Qingnuo had written a letter of complaint to Dean Huo because of what happened the day before yesterday, which was why Dean Huo also came to watch this test with the bet.
Teacher Zhou was determined to expel her from the college, but the college rules state that students cannot be expelled for any reason. Teacher Zhou's actions the day before yesterday and today have clearly violated the college rules, and the dean can expel him.
However, she didn't care about Teacher Zhou's actions. She had already achieved her goal of entering the Forging Academy and was planning to leave anyway.
It doesn't matter if Teacher Zhou dislikes her; she really isn't a "good" student, after all, she's never brought him any honor.
So Jiang Ziqi shook her head, not wanting the matter to become complicated or troublesome.
She stood up and replied, "Dean, regarding my situation with Professor Zhou, there are reasons on my part. I hope you won't let the college lose a teacher because of this, and that we can let the matter rest. As for myself, this is my application to withdraw from the college, and I hope you will approve it."
Jiang Ziqi handed over her application to withdraw from school with both hands.
Teacher Zhou looked up, not expecting Jiang Ziqi to speak up and let the matter drop.
Huo Pingsheng felt troubled. "Girl, I don't know how to explain this to your father."
"Besides, didn't you win your bet? Why are you dropping out of school?"
Jiang Ziqi shook her head gently, without explaining why. "My mind is made up. As for my father, I will talk to him about it."
However, that would have to be after she dropped out of school. To deal with her father, she would have to act first and ask for permission later.
Since Jiang Ziqi had said so, Huo Pingsheng agreed. He knew this girl had her own ideas. He had practically watched her grow up since she was little. This child had suffered too much. Others might not know, but he could see it. She was someone who wasn't loved by her parents. He had secretly shouldered most of her burdens. Now she just wanted to drop out of school, and there was nothing he couldn't agree to. At worst, he would persuade her father to stop, so she wouldn't be punished when she got home.
While listening to their conversation, Teacher Zhou wondered, "What about Jiang Ziqi's father?"
The girl's family background was ordinary according to her information, and she always seemed to live a frugal and poor life. He always thought she was just an ordinary student. But when she wanted to drop out of the college, the dean had to explain to her father.
Are there any well-known people with the surname Jiang in Picheng?
Hua Ansu's thoughts drifted as she listened, "Jiang Ziqi's father..."
She also thought about how Yan Qingnuo and Jiang Ziqi were childhood sweethearts. In such a small place as Picheng, how could childhood sweethearts be separated?
