He had never seen students who were as self-aware as the third class! If anyone was to say that the third class’ students were bad now, he would challenge them with his life.
Perhaps, Wang Zhongyun was unlucky. Just as he had this thought, a middle-aged man approached holding a thermos.
“Oh? Mr. Wang, are you supervising an exam?”
This man was, Chang Qing, the headteacher for the first class and the fifth class.
Apart from the first class, the fifth class had the best academic results, and different from Wang Zhongyun, Chang Qing taught English.
Amongst the teachers, there was also a difference in status. A top teacher like Chang Qing, who led the most promising classes, had enough reason to turn his nose up arrogantly.
Wang Zhongyun had put up with a lot from this man in the past.
Worst of all, they were coincidentally alumni who had graduated from the same school. Yet, one led the best class while one led the worst.
“En,” Wang Zhongyun grunted without any emotion. “Why are you here, Mr. Chang? It’s not time for the English exam.”
“Oh! I had no choice!” Chang Qing smirked as he looked into the third class. He noticed the girl sitting behind the teacher’s desk and immediately lit up. “Is that the student who made a bet with my first class? It’s not good for a young person to speak so arrogantly!”
“Ha.” Wang Zhongyun gripped the thermos in his hand. “That’s not of your concern. So what if their academic results are bad? When they enter society in the future, they’re going to lead better lives than you and me!”
Their parents were so capable that they had nothing to worry about.
Chang Qing was not angered by his response. “Mr. Wang, that’s not the right way to think! It’s because of your way of thinking that the third class consistently performs so badly! Your job is to nurture them into a benefit to society, not a leech!”
“Then, why don’t we swap?”
Wasn’t he tired of standing there?
Chang Qing pretended not to hear him. He held onto his thermos as he clicked his tongue and shook his head. “They look quite serious. Unfortunately, the third class is bound to lose this bet. How boring and pointless!”
He shook his head as he began to leave.
Wang Zhongyun sighed and laughed in disdain.
“You’re just like before: petty and calculative. It’s their matter whether they do well or not. As a teacher, must you get involved and make things complicated?”
Chang Qing grinned and shook his head. “I didn’t say anything to suggest that. But since you insist, why don’t we make a bet ourselves?”
“Go ahead.”
“Whoever loses should leave Liyang. I have nothing to hide. To be honest, I’ve never liked the look of you.”
Wang Zhongyun laughed. “Fine. To be honest, I’m quite happy to see you.”
Back during their school days, these two weren’t just enemies, they were also love rivals.
In the end, the girl chose to marry the relatively ordinary Wang Zhongyun. Thus, the petty Chang Qing held a grudge against him.
However, Wang Zhongyun never expected that he would be petty to this extent. They were already married and in their forties. How could he still be so hung up on the past?
Chang Qing looked at him. He looked like someone who would just sit around and smile as the world fell down around him. How useless! He couldn’t understand why Xue Li chose him in the end!
He sneered and turned to leave.
Inside the classroom, Song Yaoyao rested her chin on her hands, ignoring the matter outside.
The day of exams soon ended.
The next day, Tang Xinrou officially completed her filming.
This scene was filmed outside. As soon as she finished, she gave Song Yaoyao a phone call. But before she managed to speak, she started to cry.
“Huhuhu, Yaoyao! I’m so sad!”
