When Tang Zheng arrived at the School of Archaeology's office building, he happened to see the counsellor Yan Liang striding out. Suddenly, Yan Liang saw Tang Zheng and immediately flew into a rage: "Tang Zheng, what exactly did you do? Not returning home at night, do you still have school rules in your eyes?"
Tang Zheng remembered that the school did not stop students from staying outside the school, and there were even people who rented rooms outside the school. After all, they were all adults, so the management in this area was very loose.
Seeing him so angry, Tang Zheng calmly said: "Counsellor, why are you looking for me?"
"Don't interrupt, I haven't finished speaking yet. How can you be like this, are you still a student? "Yan Liang waved his hand and endlessly roared.
Tang Zheng frowned, I didn't make any big mistakes, is there a need to make such a big fuss over a small issue?
"You're still not convinced, right?" Seeing Tang Zheng's displeased expression, Yan Liang's voice suddenly rose a few notches, "Let me tell you, I've seen a lot of students like you. Once you enter university, you don't study hard and only know how to have fun. Let me tell you, that's the style of a student from a third-rate university, and this is Yenching University, everything has to be done according to the rules. I'm your counsellor, so you have to follow my rules, or else you can pack up and scram."
Tang Zheng's face had already darkened. Did this person eat gunpowder? Unreasonable. Seeing that the other party was still going to scold him and endlessly scolding him, Tang Zheng turned around and left. He was too lazy to talk nonsense with this kind of person.
Yan Liang had not finished scolding him, but seeing Tang Zheng turn around and leave, he could not help but become even angrier. He quickly stopped him and roared: "What are you doing? The teacher said a few words to you, but you don't want to listen and you still want to run? What kind of attitude is this? "
He spoke non-stop like a machine gun, his saliva splattering everywhere. Tang Zheng took a step back to avoid his saliva.
Tang Zheng finally understood why Wang Shiji would say that the counsellor had a bad temper. However, he did not provoke him, so was there a need to pursue him so relentlessly? Was this still the quality of a university counsellor?
If you respect me, I will respect you back.
Since he had such an attitude, Tang Zheng was even more annoyed. He said coldly, "I have no obligation to listen to your nonsense."
"You dare to scold me?"
"When did I scold you?"
"Just now, alright, Tang Zheng, there are a lot of rumors about you, what number one fierce person in the Archaeology Department, hmph, I think it's bullshit, this is simply a disgrace to the Archaeology Department, during the military training, so many people from the Archaeology Department went to the military to train, but only one of them did not receive any rewards, do you think you are deliberately smearing the reputation of the Archaeology Department?" Yan Liang asked loudly.
Tang Zheng's heart moved. So this was the crux of the matter. Yan Liang was holding a grudge because of this matter. Back then, five people from the Archaeology Department had been chosen as outstanding representatives to participate in the military training, and only Tang Zheng had not been rewarded in the end.
Tang Zheng smiled disdainfully and said, "You're unreasonable."
"You!" Just as the instructor was about to curse, his phone rang. Looking at the caller ID, he immediately changed to a smile and said, "Principal, you're looking for me?"
"Did you find him?"
"I found him, I found him. I'll bring him to you right now. This Tang Zheng is too outrageous. I must properly criticize him." Yan Liang said.
"Hurry up and bring him to my office."
"Yes, I'll be right there." Yan Liang hung up the phone, only to discover that Tang Zheng had already walked far away. He flew into a rage and said, "Tang Zheng, who told you to leave? Hurry up and come back."
Tang Zheng turned a deaf ear to him and walked forward with large strides.
Yan Liang froze for a moment as he gasped for breath. In the past, when he lectured his students, his students would not dare to talk back to him, but this time he discovered that Tang Zheng was not afraid of him at all. He felt that his dignity was being challenged.
He quickly ran up and kicked Tang Zheng's calf, saying, "I told you to run! Let's see where you can run to. "
Tang Zheng's eyes flashed with a cold light as he dodged to the side. He then grabbed onto his opponent's shoulder and threw him over his shoulder. Yan Liang was fiercely thrown onto the concrete floor.
"Ah!" A scream rang out as Yan Liang lay on the ground. The passersby all revealed a look of shock as they looked at Tang Zheng in disbelief.
Tang Zheng acted as if nothing had happened and walked away. Yan Liang crawled up in a sorry state and roared, "Tang Zheng, I'm going to expel you. Since you've offended me, don't even think about staying in Yenching University."
Tang Zheng stopped and said in disdain, "You don't have the qualifications."
"Then I'll let you see if I have the qualifications." Yan Liang thought to himself, I've been in this school for so many years, but there has never been a student who dared to disobey me like this. I have countless ways to get rid of you.
"Tang Zheng, where do you think you're going?" Suddenly, someone excitedly blocked Tang Zheng's path. Tang Zheng glanced over and saw that it was Qi Shaowen. "I've been looking for you all day. The heavens do not disappoint those who persevere. I finally found you."
Tang Zheng looked at him in surprise and asked, "Why are you looking for me?"
"Haha, of course it's something good. Come on, let's go to my office." Qi Shaowen dragged Tang Zheng to the school's office building.
"Tang Zheng, are you scared now? Let me tell you, it's too late to kowtow and apologize now. Don't even think about staying in this school." Yan Liang said arrogantly, not noticing that Qi Shaowen was behind Tang Zheng.
When Qi Shaowen walked out, Yan Liang felt as if someone had grabbed him by the neck. He gaped and said in surprise, "Professor Qi, why are you here?"
"What are you doing?" Qi Shaowen asked sternly.
"I'm educating a student. This Tang Zheng is not obedient at all."
"How can you educate a student like this? What do you mean by kowtowing and apologizing? Don't even think about staying in this school? Do you have the final say in this school? "Qi Shaowen asked sternly.
Yan Liang was stunned. He did not know why Qi Shaowen was so angry. Qi Shaowen was the treasure of the archaeology department. Yan Liang did not dare to challenge his authority. He hurriedly said, "Professor Qi, you've misunderstood. That's not what I meant. This Tang Zheng is being disobedient. The dean has been looking for him, but he ignored him."
Qi Shaowen looked at Tang Zheng in surprise and said, "He's got character. I like it."
Tang Zheng was stunned. This old man was really unexpected. He could not believe that he would say something like that.
"People should have character. If you're always at my beck and call, that means you don't have a mind of your own. Moreover, if you're a scholar, you should focus on your studies. You can just ignore everything else," Qi Shaowen continued.
Huh?
Yan Liang wondered if there was something wrong with his ears. Professor Qi was actually defending Tang Zheng.
"Professor Qi, you can't spoil a student like this. Otherwise, there'll be big problems. Besides, he doesn't even listen to the dean. That's outrageous."
"What big problems? I think you're the one who's in big trouble. You were yelling and screaming just now. Where's your manners? Is this how a counselor should behave? Oh right, tell the dean that I've found him. I won't be looking for him anymore, "said Qi Shaowen.
Yan Liang was shocked. "Professor Qi, you're looking for him? Did he cause trouble in your class? "
"What are you talking about? Nonsense? Go away, "said Qi Shaowen impatiently. He dragged Tang Zheng toward the office building.
Tang Zheng did not move. He asked, "Professor Qi, why are you looking for me? Let's talk here. I have a class later."
"What class is more important than this? Don't go to class. Let me tell you, I'm looking for you because I have good news for you. I want you to be my disciple. You'll follow me from now on. I'm going to teach you everything I know. You'll have a master's degree and Ph.D. degree. "
Yan Liang almost bit off his own tongue. Was this real? He twisted his arm hard. It hurt. Damn, it was real. Qi Shaowen, who had never taught graduate students or Ph.D. students, wanted to take Tang Zheng as his disciple. This was unprecedented.
What did this kid have that made Qi Shaowen think so highly of him?
Tang Zheng was also in disbelief. He asked, "Professor Qi, are you kidding me?"
"Hmph, who's kidding? I'm talking to you very seriously. "Qi Shaowen's face was serious." You were right about the Twinklegem Pagoda yesterday. It's authentic. Your intuition is one hundred percent accurate. "
Although Qi Shaowen had never heard of such a skill, the truth was right in front of him. He had to believe it. In the end, he decided that Tang Zheng was a genius in archeology. This was a talent that no one else had. He should not waste this talent.
Tang Zheng did not know why Qi Shaowen had overturned his own judgment. However, to hear Qi Shaowen admit his mistake was rare and valuable for a long-established professor.
He could not help but have a good impression of Qi Shaowen. Although this old man was stubborn and serious at times, he was also very adorable at other times.
"Professor Qi, thank you for your appreciation. However, I'm really not interested in pursuing a master's degree." Tang Zheng only went to university to experience the university life. He had no desire to further his studies.
"How can you waste this talent? No, no, this is a waste of God's gift. You must continue your studies. "Qi Shaowen grabbed Tang Zheng's arm and refused to let him go. He was so excited that he could not speak coherently.
Tang Zheng did not know whether to laugh or cry. Yan Liang was even more surprised. Countless people wanted to be Qi Shaowen's apprentice but he was stubborn and refused. This time, Qi Shaowen took the initiative to ask him to be his apprentice but Tang Zheng refused. Did the sun rise from the west?
However, Yan Liang was secretly delighted. This idiot rejected such a good opportunity. Humph, he was right to reject it. If he really became Qi Shaowen's disciple, he would definitely take revenge on me. Yes, I must make sure this matter is ruined.
Yan Liang coughed and said, "Professor Qi, since he doesn't know what's good for him, let's just forget about it. Yenching University may not have many things but there are plenty of studious students. Just find another one."
Qi Shaowen glared at Yan Liang and reprimanded, "What do you know? I've been waiting for decades for such a good seedling. How can I let him go just like that? Don't speak if you don't know anything. No one will treat you as a mute. "
Yan Liang's face instantly turned the color of pig liver. He remained silent, embarrassed.
After a pause, Qi Shaowen looked at Tang Zheng and said, "Tang Zheng, you're the one who raised the conditions. What will it take for you to agree to be my apprentice?"
