Knock! Knock!
The sound of knocking rang out.
An Xinhui, who was working at her desk, raised her head. She wrapped the sesame seed cake in paper and placed it in the drawer. After ascertaining that there were no crumbs at the corners of her mouth, she sat up straight.
"Please enter!"
When An Xinhui saw Sun Mo pushing the door open, she felt a little surprised and a little nervous.
"Headmaster An!"
Sun Mo spoke up.
"Little Momo, don't you think you're treating me like an outsider by addressing me like this? You can call me Xinhui or Sister An like in the past. "
An Xinhui appeared calm, but she was panicking inside. After all, Sun Mo was her fiancé. Honestly speaking, she felt that she owed Sun Mo.
Back then, when Sun Mo was thrown to the logistics department by Zhang Hanfu, An Xinhui didn't say anything immediately. She had planned to transfer him back after a month, but who knew that Sun Mo would climb up by himself after a few days? Moreover, he was doing so in such an outstanding manner.
Although An Xinhui had the intention to help, she ultimately didn't manage to do anything. Therefore, she felt very apologetic.
"Headmaster An, what's going on with that student Zhou Yong? Why aren't you expelling him? "
Sun Mo frowned, not in the mood to chat with An Xinhui.
Hearing Sun Mo's cold tone and his business-like attitude, An Xinhui felt a little uncomfortable. However, she was a genius with high EQ and IQ after all. She soon discovered the problem.
"Did that student find trouble with you?"
An Xinhui felt a little worried and assessed Sun Mo. Luckily, nothing happened.
"You should expel him. A school bully like him is a huge threat to the other students if he stays in the school for another day."
Sun Mo spoke bluntly.
The school was supposed to be an ivory tower. Life here should be as clear as the clear sky after the rain, leaving behind beautiful memories.
However, a scum like Zhou Yong left behind scars and wounds that students were unwilling to recall.
"Sun Mo, I planned to do this three months after Zhou Yong joined the school. But sometimes, things don't go according to one's wishes."
An Xinhui sighed.
The Central Province Academy was founded by the An Clan's ancestor. In order to prevent the headmaster from having the final say, the authority of the headmaster had always been divided into three parts, with the two vice-headmasters each taking over a part.
An Xinhui's grandfather failed in his attempt to break through to the saint realm and became a vegetable. Therefore, An Xinhui had to accept this task at the critical moment.
As a great teacher, An Xinhui was qualified. However, it wasn't enough for her to manage a school.
In the past, Zhang Hanfu was very respectful and followed the old headmaster's lead. But ever since the old headmaster became a vegetable and fell into a coma, in addition to the support of an important character, Li Zixing, Zhang Hanfu's ambition swelled. He no longer assisted An Xinhui and started to vie for power.
Zhang Hanfu was a very capable person to begin with. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been highly regarded by the former principal and become his granddaughter's right-hand man. Furthermore, with Li Zixing standing behind him, his influence naturally increased greatly.
Of course, Zhang Hanfu was also under pressure. Therefore, in school, he would try to recruit people from all walks of life, good or bad. For example, people like Yang Cai.
In the past, An Xinhui was too pure. She wanted to kick out all the people with stains on their reputations, including the odd-job workers and teachers in the school. She wanted to build a perfect school.
This time, it was like poking a hornet's nest.
An Xinhui was too idealistic.
Even in the imperial court, there were still loyal and treacherous officials, as well as vile and noble people. By the time An Xinhui regained her senses and understood that people had deep-rooted bad habits and some small flaws could be tolerated and ignored, she had already offended many people.
Those odd-job workers and teachers with stains on their character or their way of doing things were all afraid of being fired. Hence, all of them submitted to Zhang Hanfu.
One could say that An Xinhui, who lacked work experience, made a wrong move the moment she started. She allowed Zhang Hanfu to gain a lot of strength for no reason.
As for Wang Su, he was a great teacher who had mysophobia and loved perfection the most. An Xinhui's terrible performance caused him to be extremely disappointed.
To Wang Su, the Central Province Academy was his second home. He didn't wish to see this family decline and also felt that An Xinhui wasn't worthy of being the owner of this family. Hence, he stood out.
Those teachers who didn't like Zhang Hanfu and felt that An Xinhui couldn't manage the school well naturally gathered under Wang Su.
"Although I'm the headmaster, I need two vice-headmasters to give their approval if I want to expel a student."
An Xinhui bitterly smiled.
"Zhou Yong's father is one of the top ten magnates in Jinling, and his personal teacher is a 2-star great teacher, Xu Shaoyuan. These two are major characters and can be of great help to Zhang Hanfu. Therefore, he has been doing his best to protect Zhou Yong."
No matter what, Sun Mo had been a teacher-in-charge in No.2 High School for six years. He knew that the parents of some students were really impressive.
When a student made a mistake, the severity of the punishment basically depended on the social status of the student's parents.
"I will warn Zhang Hanfu that if he doesn't restrain Zhou Yong and causes trouble for you, I will shed all pretense of cordiality with him."
An Xinhui expressed her stance.
"You're wrong. Right now, it's not that I'm being bullied. It's just that Zhou Yong's existence has become a sore in this school. If we don't get rid of him, the atmosphere in this school will only worsen!"
Sun Mo was determined to fire Zhou Yong.
This kind of school bullying, competition, and puppy love, if it wasn't stopped in time, the school's atmosphere would be ruined.
Hearing Sun Mo's words, An Xinhui looked at him in astonishment. She could sense Sun Mo's current state of mind. He was truly thinking about the other students.
Even if he had to offend a 2-star great teacher and a major merchant in Jinling, he wouldn't hesitate.
This was the spirit a teacher should have.
Ding!
Favorable impression points from An Xinhui + 20. Friendly (170/1,000).
Hearing the system's notification, Sun Mo's originally gloomy mood became a little better. At the very least, this favorable impression point proved that An Xinhui was also a headmaster with ideals.
An Xinhui took out a form from the drawer and wrote down the reason for firing Zhou Yong. She then signed her name on it.
She asked Sun Mo what Zhou Yong had done to him. There was no need for that. Just a few of the things Zhou Yong had done would be sufficient for him to be fired.
"No matter what you want to do, I will support you fully!"
An Xinhui made up her mind. This time around, she was going to fight to the death. Even Sun Mo had this courage, so why couldn't she cut off all means of retreat?
"There's no need for that. I'm the one who started this, so let me clean it up!"
Sun Mo took the form. "I will look for Wang Su and Zhang Hanfu and get them to sign their names!"
"Wait a minute!"
An Xinhui stretched out her hand to press it down, but she was still half a beat too late. The form was taken away.
"If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave first."
Sun Mo turned and left.
"Behind Zhang Hanfu is Li Zixing. You have to be careful. He's an evil person who can do anything."
An Xinhui reminded him.
"Li Zixing? He can't be from the royal clan, right? "
Sun Mo guessed that in the Great Tang Empire, the emperor's surname was Li. Hence, the Li surname was the country's surname.
"Yes, he's the younger brother of the emperor. His conferred land is in Jinling, and he's an adversary with excellent schemes and intelligence."
An Xinhui sighed. If it wasn't for this major character supporting Zhang Hanfu, his capital wouldn't amount to anything at all.
"Understood."
Sun Mo left, closing the door behind him.
An Xinhui looked at Sun Mo's departing back view and sank into contemplation. It was only when her stomach started growling that she took out the baked bun that had turned cold and hardened. She continued to eat it, but she was a little distracted.
"Little Momo, can you make me look at you in a different light this time around?"
An Xinhui recalled her childhood and discovered that the Sun Mo from back then was very different from the current Sun Mo in terms of personality.
An Xinhui had never expected that the little tail who always followed behind her and called her 'Big Sister An' would become so tyrannical, confident, and proud. When she spoke, she exuded an air of grandeur, causing others to have a good impression of her.
Ding!
Favorable impression points from An Xinhui + 20. Friendly (190/1,000).
...
Wang Su's office was clean and spotless. There were almost no decorations at all. There were only a few wooden chairs and a pot of tea.
"You want to fire Zhou Yong?"
Wang Su looked at Sun Mo. "Do you know his background?"
"I know!"
Sun Mo nodded.
Wang Su's eyes brightened and he nodded in gratification. After that, he picked up a brush and signed his name on the form. "I'm looking forward to your performance. Also, I won't be giving you any help."
This was Wang Su, a mental cleanliness freak. When he did things, he would never conceal or act pretentiously. He wanted to use this incident to test Sun Mo and see if this guy was perfect!
If he was perfect, he would definitely pull Sun Mo into his great teacher group.
"Teacher Wang, if I had to wait for others to help me with everything I do, I would have rotted away in Songyang Academy long ago."
Sun Mo spat.
In this world, there had never been a savior.
"Alright!"
Wang Su couldn't help but clap. He looked at Sun Mo with an even more admiring gaze.
Ding!
Favorable impression points from Wang Su + 15. Neutral (13/100).
"Teacher Wang, farewell!"
Sun Mo got up and left. From the start to the end, his expression was neither servile nor overbearing.
Wang Su assessed Sun Mo's departing back view and felt increasingly satisfied. As a 4-star great teacher, he had seen too many people being humble, fawning, and panicking. Sun Mo was truly a rare young man who could still maintain his composure before him.
"What an excellent young man!"
Wang Su could tell that Sun Mo wasn't pretending to arouse his interest. He was truly calm and composed.
Of course, Sun Mo was calm. It was because strength was the basis of confidence.
The Grand Universe Formless Divine Art was the ultimate divine art of the Skyraise Academy. Sun Mo had cultivated it to the fifth level. Immemorial Vairocana could unleash all of his opponent's cultivation arts, experience, and knowledge.
He also had Soul Imprint, Divine Sight, and the ancient massage technique. These allowed Sun Mo to be like a tiger that had grown wings on his path of teaching. Why wouldn't he be confident?
Even if it was the weakest study of spirit runes, he had grasped two spirit rune drawing techniques. One was at the quasi-ancestor-level, while the other was at the ancestor-level. Wouldn't you be afraid?
After leaving Wang Su's office, Sun Mo went straight to Zhang Hanfu's office.
"Come in!"
When Zhang Hanfu heard the knocking sound and saw Sun Mo, his eyes narrowed. Could it be that Sun Mo finally knew how strong his influence was and had come to reconcile with him?
(However, it's too late. You've humiliated me before, so you have to pay the price.)
When Zhang Hanfu was contemplating how to humiliate Sun Mo, he saw Sun Mo placing a form before him.
"I suggest to expel Zhou Yong immediately. Headmaster An and Vice-headmaster Wang have already signed it. Vice-headmaster Zhang, are you still going to protect him?"
Sun Mo spoke in an overbearing manner.
"Impudent! How can you speak to me like this?"
Zhang Hanfu was about to die from anger. Sun Mo clearly knew that he hated the word 'vice' the most, yet he purposely emphasized on it.
Those rumors weren't wrong. This fellow's mouth was really vicious. He might as well just call him Black Doggy Sun.
Also, Sun Mo's arrogant attitude. (You're a newly employed teacher, yet you're questioning me?) (Who do you think you are?)
"Sorry, I can't help it. I can't see any aspect of you that's worthy of my respect!"
Sun Mo shrugged and looked straight into Zhang Hanfu's eyes, wearing an innocent expression.
"Arrogant!"
Zhang Hanfu slammed his fist on the table with a bang and stared at Sun Mo's eyes. "Do you want me to teach you how to respect your elders and leaders?"
"Don't change the topic. A scum like Zhou Yong needs to be expelled immediately to restore peace to the campus."
Sun Mo's tone was unyielding.
"You're the one who's changing the topic!"
Zhang Hanfu roared back. He wasn't a fool. How could Sun Mo's cautiousness hide from him?
"What about Zhou Yong? You still want to protect him? An Xinhui and Wang Su have already signed! "
Although Zhang Hanfu wasn't there to entertain him, Sun Mo directly sat down. He wasn't a fool who would just stand there.
Seeing how arrogant Sun Mo was, Zhang Hanfu was so angry that he wanted to cough up blood. He wanted nothing more than to smash Sun Mo's head. "Autograph? You're letting them be the good guys. How hypocritical. Let me tell you, the Central Province Academy will be finished if Zhou Yong is expelled. Otherwise, do you think I would have tolerated him for so long? "
"You speak as though you're very aggrieved."
Sun Mo's lips twitched.
"What would a newly employed teacher like you know? Scram out! "
Zhang Hanfu roared and pointed at the door.
"You're determined not to sign?"
Sun Mo frowned so tightly that he could crush a crab to death.
"I'll sign your mom!"
Zhang Hanfu cursed. He grabbed the form and tore it into pieces. "You have no idea how important Zhou Yong is to the Central Province Academy. You're just a newbie, and you have no idea what you're doing! The justice you think you're doing will harm this school! "
"Hehe!"
Sun Mo got up and left.
Zhang Hanfu grabbed a flower vase and smashed it fiercely against the door.
Bang!
Crash!
The flower vase shattered onto the ground.
Zhang Hanfu panted heavily. He couldn't wait for the day to visit the Darkness Continent to arrive. At that time, he would be able to kill this fellow.
Zhang Hanfu lifted his teacup and drank a mouthful of hot tea.
(Wait a minute, judging from Sun Mo's way of doing things, he shouldn't be a careless person. He should know that I won't give my signature to expel Zhou Yong. But why did he still come?)
(Damn it, this Black Doggy Sun is intentionally coming to anger me.)
Zhang Hanfu instantly understood.
In truth, Sun Mo did know that Zhang Hanfu wouldn't give his signature. There were two reasons why he came to look for him. Firstly, it was to probe Zhou Yong's weight in Zhang Hanfu's heart. Secondly, it was to make things difficult for him.
(Since I can't beat you up, I'll disgust you first!)
As someone in a high position, Zhang Hanfu found Sun Mo to be an eyesore, but he couldn't do anything to him. Sun Mo would definitely be angered to death and might even suffer from constipation the next day.
