Chapter 20 Follow-up to the Dismissal Incident
It was still early before the appointed time, so Zhou Yang came to the nearest bookstore and flipped through the book "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" in his hand. Zhou Yang had read this book no less than three times, but he had different feelings every time he finished reading it.
Now only when he holds the book in his hands, Zhou Yang feels like he is still a teenager. Although he left school for just over a month, what happened during this time has completely changed Zhou Yang's thinking. Sometimes he even feels that he is still a teenager.
There is a lack of passion that young people should have in their lives.
It's almost ten o'clock.
"Zhou Yang!" There was no need to look back, Zhou Yang already knew who the person was, but the other person's voice was too loud, attracting dissatisfied attention from others.
As soon as he turned around, he was greeted with a big hug, followed by several punches on the chest, but this power was not enough to scratch Zhou Yang's itch.
"Huh, that's so rude. I left without even saying hello. It's not fun!" Zhao Chuan, an old man, showed an aggrieved expression, which made some readers around him quickly find a place to vomit.
"Let's go and talk somewhere else." Zhou Yang felt warm in his heart after not seeing his friend for a long time.
This is a pedestrian street, and there is a chair every forty or fifty meters for passers-by to rest. The two of them can find a place to sit down.
"Zhou Yang, you must treat me today to comfort my weak heart." Zhao Chuan showed such a bitter look that Zhou Yang almost couldn't help but punch him back.
"Okay, okay, please, tell me, what do you want to eat?" Zhou Yang surrendered. Over the years, apart from Jiang Tianming, whom he had just met, he was only such a good brother. He would never forget that he was the most difficult and helpless person in his life.
Who will help you when it's time?
"Haha, you're not welcome. Why don't you treat me to KFC?" Zhao Chuan looks carefree on the surface, but in his heart he is very considerate of others, especially his brother. He knows that Zhou Yang's conditions are not good and he is usually frugal.
I'm used to it, so eating KFC doesn't cost much, and it takes Zhou Yang's face into consideration.
"Tch, what are you talking about? I, Zhou Yang, am such a stingy person. Today you are open to eating. No matter how much you eat, I will treat you! By the way, I will introduce someone to you later. Maybe you will do the opposite when you get excited.
Invite me!" Zhou Yang suddenly remembered Zhao Chuan's admiration for Jiang Tianming, and taking this opportunity to introduce them to each other seemed to be a good choice.
"Who is doing it so mysteriously!" Zhao Chuan had a look of disbelief. His family background was not simple, and he didn't believe that Zhou Yang knew anyone who could surprise him.
"Hey, you'll know when we get here later." Zhou Yang felt that only when he was with Zhao Chuan could he let go of all his defenses and have no scruples.
The two of them started talking nonsense on the roadside.
"Hey, it's so annoying. Do you know what a bastard that Zhu Guangming is? After you left, he went even further to paint you as a hateful person."
"Young man, it's not easy. We haven't seen each other for more than a month, and you can use two idioms at once." Zhou Yang joked, not taking Zhu Guangming's matter to heart at all.
"I mean, Zhou Yang, are you so willing to be tricked?" Zhao Chuan gritted his teeth and said, feeling very angry all the time. It's not that he hadn't mentioned this matter to his father, but the old man always felt that he was biased against the school, so he didn't even think about it.
Ignore it.
"Okay, okay, it's all over. Why bring him up?" Zhou Yang really didn't intend to argue with Zhu Guangming. Although he sometimes gets upset when he thinks about it, after all, he is from two worlds and can see further.
Some.
"Hey, Brother Jiang, here, here..." At this time, Jiang Tianming arrived, followed closely by Guo Shan and Ji Guangsheng. Ever since he first encountered a robber in a gold shop, Jiang Tianming always arranges for the two of them when traveling.
Accompany.
"Xiao Yang." Jiang Tianming also saw Zhou Yang, waved and walked over.
Zhao Chuan, who was behind him, stared at the person with wide eyes. His mouth could fit a goose egg, "Jiang... Jiang... Young Master Jiang." Only then did he understand what Zhou Yang meant. This was more than exciting.
It is simply worship. No matter how strong your background is, can you still be stronger than the Jiang family in Nanzhou?
"Xiaoyang, who is this?" Jiang Tianming looked at Zhao Chuan in confusion. If he could call out the three words "Jiang Dashao" from the other party's mouth, he was at least an insider.
"Brother Jiang, this is my good brother, Zhao Chuan." Zhou Yang introduced each other. In fact, he couldn't say each other, but he mainly introduced Zhao Chuan to Jiang Tianming.
"Hello, Young Master Jiang. My name is Zhao Chuan. I am a good friend of Zhou Yang. We grew up together." Zhao Chuan finally realized that his brother knew Jiang Tianming. His attitude was no better than his own.
His relationship with Zhou Yang was not very good, so he was very smart, not mentioning his own situation at all, and using Zhou Yang as a banner.
Jiang Tianming is indeed quite serious. After getting to know each other for a period of time, he probably knows Zhou Yang's character. Friends who can be recognized by Zhou Yang are definitely not the kind who just talk about it.
He simply shook hands and said, "Hello, Zhao Chuan, no matter how young or old you are, just call me Brother Jiang like Xiao Yang. By the way, your surname is Zhao. Could it be that... you are from Director Zhao Yunhong's family?"
Young Master?" Jiang Tianming has been involved in the upper class society since he was a child, and he is basically familiar with the high-ranking officials in Nanzhou. Since the other party knows him, he can guess the general identity of the other party with just one screening.
"Yes, yes, Zhao Yunhong is my father. He always mentions you in front of me, saying that you are a role model for the younger generation. Today is a close encounter with an idol." A simple sentence said.
They are close to each other. Zhao Chuan's father is currently the director of the Nanzhou City Health Bureau, and he has to deal with the Jiang family.
"Haha, these are just jokes made by the elders, not worth mentioning. Let's go and talk somewhere else." Jiang Tianming had no airs in dealing with others. This is the quality that a real upper class person should have.
While walking and chatting, a few people came to a newly opened hotel and asked for a private room. This is currently the most prosperous commercial street in the old city. It is located at the foot of Laolong Mountain. It can be said that many project developments here have the shadow of the Jiang family.
.
"Xiaoyang, listen to my brother's advice, you still have to go to school. If you don't fully experience some things, it is equivalent to a flaw in life. Although your level in some places is far beyond ordinary people, you still know too little about the world. Why do people go to school?
, just to understand different lives at different stages." Jiang Tianming said very vaguely, but he also directly pointed out Zhou Yang's shortcomings. If others were to leave, he would not say such things.
"I will handle the matter of being expelled. There is still justice in this world. Remember, the greater the ability, the fairer the world." Jiang Tianming made the final decision and could not tolerate Zhou Yang's objection.
"But I want to pay back your money..." Zhou Yang's voice became lower and lower as he spoke. No matter how powerful he was, it could not change the fact that he was lonely inside. Jiang Tianming's words would not embarrass Zhou Yang, but instead made him feel warm.
I don’t know how many years it has been since I was taught a lesson by anyone, and only when the other party truly regards me as a brother will I be taught a lesson. This is the case for Zhao Chuan, and the same is true for Jiang Tianming.
"Let's put this matter aside for now. I still have this ability. I'll wait until you actually get out of school. That's it. You will continue to go to school tomorrow and the day after tomorrow at the latest. If you don't get into a good university in the future, I won't be able to forgive you." Jiang Tianming
He said with a smile, Zhao Chuan was stunned for a moment, he didn't understand a word of the conversation between the two except for expulsion and going to school. It seems that his good brother Zhou Yang's experience during these days was not simple.
The meal was finished happily. Zhao Chuan had to study in the afternoon, so he left after eating. Anyway, Zhou Yang would go back to school in a day or two, and there was plenty of time to get together. He believed that since Jiang Tianming was willing to help
If Zhou Yang returns to school, there will be no problem. Being able to get close contact with Jiang Tianming will be enough for him to go home and show off in front of the old man.
Jiang Tianming also had too many things to deal with, so he took Guo Shan and Guo Shan away not long after. In the end, Zhao Chuan grabbed the meal.
Zhou Yang walked alone on the street, thinking carefully about what Jiang Tianming said.
"What the person just said is right. Ask yourself, will you regret it if you give up the opportunity to study? The key to practice is to follow your heart and be at ease. Maybe it will be okay now. In the future, when your cultivation level becomes higher and higher, you will always be able to overcome the disaster.
One day, all the regrets and shortcomings will easily turn into inner demons. The more regrets there are, the stronger the inner demons will be." Aguai reminded me at the right time.
Zhou Yang nodded thoughtfully. Rather than going to school, it would be better to experience the life that a young person should have.
The next important thing is to buy a cutting machine. Maybe the piece of jade brought back from Myanmar will bring you miracles.
Today is the weekend, and Zhu Guangming doesn't need to go to work. To be honest, teachers' benefits are pretty good now, especially if he takes the position of director of the teaching office. Many things only need to be arranged, and there is basically no need to worry.
Besides, Nanyan Middle School itself has a very good school spirit, and most students will not cause big troubles among themselves.
But today, Zhu Guangming’s phone calls have not stopped since noon. He is sitting in the living room with paper towels piled in front of him. Don’t get me wrong, Zhu Guangming is quite clean. These are used to wipe sweat. No matter how cold the air conditioner is, it can’t withstand it.
At this time, Zhu Guangming felt hot inside.
He had no idea that the student who was expelled a month ago would bring so much pressure to him. From the principal to the education committee and the Ministry of Culture, every leader he looked up to. He didn't say much, just got to know him.
The situation of the day.
To be honest, it's impossible. After so many years as a leader, he has learned how to protect himself, but this is too scary. No one knows Zhou Yang's background better than him. He has never thought about what kind of trouble the other party can make. Still remember
On the day Zhou Yang was expelled, Zong Yao's brother Zong Sheng asked someone to deliver some "specialties".
But now the reversal is so violent. His only hope now is that his words can convince his superiors. Fortunately, only he and Zhou Yang know what happened in the office back then. No matter how much he adds fuel and jealousy, there will be no third party to prove it.
.No matter how strong the relationship is, you always have to rely on evidence, right?
"What's your situation? Why did Mr. Liu's wife call me to ask you about expelling students? I'm wondering if you've been on the phone all day long. Is there any trouble? How many times have I told you, don't do it?
Bring troubles to the family." Zhu Guangming's wife Xu Zhen came to the living room with a facial mask on, mumbling that the Director Liu she was talking about was a leader of the Ministry of Education, and the two families were usually very close.
"You are a woman, what do you know? Go away, go away, and leave me alone." Zhu Guangming waved his hands extremely impatiently.
"What are you talking about? Why didn't you find me annoying when you married me? You..." Xu Zhen was about to act up.
The sweet ringtone of the cell phone suddenly rang again. Zhu Guangming glanced at it, his face turned pale and he was sweating.
