Arriving at the school gate, Lu Mengxuan took out the bank card Zhang Yang donated to charity last time from his pocket.
"Is there any money in it?" Zhang Yang asked.
"What do you think?"
"It doesn't matter if you have it or not. If it's not enough, I'll add more." Zhang Yang said with a bad smile.
"Okay, please charge more! For those poor children." Lu Mengxuan said with a playful smile.
…
Zhang Yang believed that this girl didn't care about money, let alone touch other people's money.
However, for the sake of charity, my card must have been empty, but even so, I feel willing to do so.
Of course he was not doing it for charity, but he was excited because Lu Mengxuan could treat him as an outsider.
When Zhang Yang returned to the villa, it was only around seven o'clock. After walking into the living room and seeing Shishi sitting alone on the sofa, he suddenly felt an inexplicable feeling of guilt.
"I want to go back to Danxia Mountain, not here."
Shishi's words were choked with sobs, which made him feel even more sad.
"What's wrong? What happened?" Zhang Yang walked to her and sat down, asking softly.
At this time, Shishi's bright eyes were filled with tears, as if she had suffered great grievances and looked pitiful, which made people feel particularly distressed.
"It's nothing. I'm so bored by myself. Staying here every day is not fun at all."
Shishi put her head close to his arms, started crying and continued: "Although Danxia Mountain is boring, at least we can be together, but here, I can't see you every day."
Zhang Yang felt sad. It was true that a girl from Shishi deliberately went down the mountain to look for him.
And after coming here for such a long time, I didn't accompany her, leaving her alone every day. Thinking of this, I felt even more guilty.
"When I finish these two days, I will always stay with you." Zhang Yang wrapped his arms around her, held her tightly in his arms, and kissed her hair.
"Really?" Shishi raised her pretty face and asked with tears in her eyes.
"Really, I promise."
Although Shishi frightened me to death when she was unruly and aggressive, but when her true feelings were revealed, she made me feel extra sad and pitiful.
She was like his natural nemesis. He was frightened when he saw her, but he couldn't bear to see her suffer any grievance.
The next day, Zhang Yang stepped into the classroom as usual.
Although Zhou Jixin roared that he was going to be fired yesterday, he didn't take it to heart. If he could really be fired, it would be a good thing.
Anyway, I was subject to all kinds of restrictions in school, and I couldn't learn anything at all.
"I heard Wang Yang say that the school is going to expel you, is it true?" Zhang Yang just walked into the classroom, and Ye Wenwen was the first to step forward and ask.
"Yes, is it true or false?"
"TMD, what kind of school leader do you think you are expelling such a good student?"
"Let's all protest together."
…
What followed was a lot of discussion and dissatisfaction among the students.
It is undeniable that Zhang Yang was very moved when he heard their words, but he didn't know how to answer.
As the class bell rang, Professor Li walked in with textbooks in hand. Seeing everyone crowded around Zhang Yang, his brows immediately furrowed.
"It's time for class. Everyone, please go back to your seats."
"Professor Li, is Zhang Yang going to be expelled from the school?" Ye Wenwen asked the first question.
"Yes, why should we fire Zhang Yang?"
"He just won the Three Kingdoms Invitational Tournament and won honors for the school, but he wants to expel such a good student?"
"I heard it's for the teacher-student relationship? Why can't college students make a promotional video?"
…
It seems that Wang Yang spread the news early in the morning. The students in the class did not return to their seats, but instead asked Professor Li about it.
Zhang Yang seldom attends classes, but when he comes, he only shows off that he has helped them treat their physical illnesses, which makes his classmates have a good impression of him.
Coupled with Wang Yang's instigation, they naturally felt that the school's decision was unreasonable.
"Everyone should sit down in class first. The school leaders will decide on this matter."
Professor Li was as patient as ever, with a troubled look on his kind face.
After school yesterday afternoon, the school leaders held a special meeting to decide on punishing Zhang Yang. You don't need to guess the final result, which is to expel him from school.
Of course, Zhou Jixin placed all the responsibility on the Education Bureau.
Although Professor Li also felt that it was inappropriate to expel a student who had just won honors for the school, not to mention Zhang Yang's pretended love of learning also endeared him to him.
After the meeting, he and Guo Changshun also talked to Zhou Jixin alone, hoping to reduce the punishment.
However, Zhou Jixin had clearly made up his mind, and was backed by a notice from the Education Bureau. He firmly refused to agree, and he and Guo Changshun had no choice but to give up.
"Professor Li, don't you often praise Zhang Yang?"
"Yes, we heard that someone in the Education Bureau deliberately punished him. As the patriarch of the school, why don't you say something fair?"
"The current education bureau is polluted, and the school is as obedient as a grandchild. It is so disappointing to everyone."
…
"Is there such a thing? How is this possible? Don't listen to some rumors."
When Professor Li heard his classmates' words, he immediately frowned and said.
For him, who has always been upright, he would never have imagined that there were so many tricks behind the scenes, and even the comments made by his classmates seemed to be made out of nothing.
As a place for cultivating students, if the education department becomes a mess, then what department can we trust?
"It's all true, Professor Li. We didn't believe it when Wang Yang told us this morning."
Ye Wenwen stepped forward and continued with a dissatisfied look on her face: "But the East China Sea Morning News has already published this news, is there still a lie?"
"Really? Where's the newspaper?"
Professor Li asked with surprise on his old face and no longer attending class.
Hearing Ye Wenwen's words, Zhang Yang was also stunned. He didn't expect that little girl Meng Wanting to be so efficient at work. She just told her yesterday and it was published in the newspaper today.
But considering her professionalism in breaking into the men's room for work, it's normal to be so efficient.
But everything is just speculation. Although Wen Bin is the son of the Director of the Education Bureau, there is no direct evidence that it is related to this matter.
Isn't she afraid of others finding trouble after it was published in the newspaper? If she were sued for defamation, I'm afraid she wouldn't even be able to keep her job.
At this time, Ye Wenwen turned around and walked to the desk, picked up a newspaper and handed it to Professor Li. Zhang Yang was curious and leaned over to take a look.
"Teacher-student love? Why is the Education Bureau going to war?"
The big black text title is very shocking and attracts more attention.
Meng Wanting did not mention Zhang Yang's name in the entire article, saying that Lu Mengxuan collaborated with a boy to shoot a promotional video for a certain company, and all the remuneration was donated to charity.
The education sector should commend teachers and students who have contributed to charity. Their outstanding performance of charity has set an example for teachers and students, and should be vigorously publicized.
However, the Education Bureau used the teacher-student relationship as an excuse to impose the most severe punishment on the teacher-student pair.
According to insiders, the son of the director of the Education Bureau once tried hard to pursue the female teacher but was rejected. It is unknown whether he was seeking to avenge himself...
After reading this report, Zhang Yang felt that his worries were unnecessary.
Meng Wanting has obviously considered such consequences, so the final insider revealed that the words were ambiguous, which made it difficult for people to pursue the case even if they were investigated.
"It's so ridiculous that there is such a thing."
The information in the newspaper is quite authoritative. After reading the report, Professor Li's hands began to tremble, and he said helplessly and angrily.
"Professor Li, I feel so sad. I can't believe that something like this would happen to the Education Bureau." Wang Yang shouted with grief and indignation on his face.
"Yeah, it's a shame for the education community."
"A director actually avenges his son. Is there any justice?"
"Do you think Zhang Yang is honest and has no family background, so you would target him?"
"Let's all look back and see if there is anything we can do to help him. Isn't a broken director great?"
…
The students were filled with indignation, and some even pounded the table hard to express their dissatisfaction.
Some of them sincerely felt that it was unfair for Zhang Yang, but there were also some who deliberately stirred up trouble, fearing that the world would not be in chaos.
"Don't worry, everyone. You should sit down in class first. I will go back to the principal to report this matter."
Professor Li also felt that what the Education Bureau did was a bit disgraceful, but as a professor, he still had to appease the students' emotions first.
What's more, these preparatory class students are all rich and noble, and have many strong family backgrounds. If this matter is publicized, it will definitely have a great negative impact on the school.
"If you don't give us an explanation, we will strike." Shen Xue suddenly stood up and shouted.
"Yes, class is on strike."
"Yes, we will not only go on strike, we will also sit in on the school playground to protest against such an unfair decision by the school."
…
I originally thought that class was very boring, but now I finally found a reason not to go to class. The whole class was still unified, which made the calls for a class strike get louder and louder.
Even the teacher in the classroom next to him stuck his head out to see what happened.
"You guys study by yourself in the classroom first, I'll go find the principal right away."
Professor Li could no longer suppress the situation. Judging from the attitude of these students, it was impossible to attend class. As long as they were not allowed to cause trouble, that would be fine.
"If we all go together, we can make the principal pay attention to such a disciplinary decision and ask the principal for an explanation." Xie Minghui shouted to the students around him.
The last time Zhang Yang treated him, he was very touched. The two of them already had a feeling of sympathy for each other, and the treatment deepened their friendship.
Now that he heard that he had been unfairly punished, Xie Minghui was naturally the first to bear the brunt of it and asked for an explanation for his buddy.
"Yes, let's go together."
"If you don't give an explanation, everyone will stay in the principal's office until a reasonable explanation is given."
"Let's go, stop dawdling."
…
As soon as Xie Minghui said his words, the students immediately stood up, even ignoring Professor Li in front of them, and rushed to the door one after another. (To be continued)
