Lu Chaoge did not laugh. She looked at Fang Yan with a serious expression and said, "Do you know what this competition means?"
"I do." Fang Yan nodded. He knew what Lu Chaoge was worried about. He also knew that she must have taken responsibility in front of the board of directors or the school leaders in order to speak up for him. "This is a fight for face and also a fight for substance. To put it more broadly, this is a fight for national pride. "
With national pride, the people could stand up proudly.
If the country could not stand up, the words of the people were equivalent to farts.
In the past, the exchange competition with Wuren Secondary School had been handled by the first class of the top class. This time, this heavy responsibility was suddenly handed over to the ninth class. How could the teachers and students of the first class be satisfied? How could the school leaders and teachers be at ease?
Lu Chaoge must have done a lot of work in order to calm the worries of the leaders and the resistance of the first class.
In class, Fang Yan told the story of looking at the sky from the bottom of a well. He compared the Wuren delegation to the frogs in the bottom of a well. Although he did not say it very clearly, everyone was well aware of this kind of thing. According to the rules of friendship between the two parties, what Fang Yan said was actually out of line. It was suspected of damaging the relationship between the two schools.
However, from the beginning to the end, Lu Chaoge did not show any anger. Even when Jia Siting and the others encouraged Lu Chaoge to stand up and scold Fang Yan, she still remained silent.
Fang Yan was only a teacher in the school. He could speak eloquently and engage in a war of words. However, Lu Chaoge could not. She was the vice-principal of Rosefinch Secondary. She was the main person in charge of Rosefinch Secondary's contact with the Wuren delegation. If there was an honor, she could take credit. If there was a problem, she would also have to bear the responsibility.
She was willing to tolerate Fang Yan and was willing to fight for such an opportunity for him.
This was not only because she was Fang Yan's leader, nor was it because she had a good relationship with Fang Yan.
It was because no one from Hua Xia could retreat when faced with such provocation.
Absolutely not!
After listening to Fang Yan's answer, Lu Chaoge finally felt relieved.
Previously, he was worried that Fang Yan would not take the competition seriously because of his cheeky smile. Now that she heard him say this, she knew that he had a clear understanding of this matter.
In fact, his understanding was even deeper than his own.
"It's good that you can think that way," Lu Chaoge said. "The match is tomorrow morning. The first was tea ceremony, the second was calligraphy, and the third was fencing. Who are you going to send out for the next three matches? "
Fang Yan squinted his eyes and smiled, saying, "Our class is full of talents. Any one of us can beat them down."
"Be more serious."
"To be honest, I already have candidates for calligraphy and fencing. But regarding the tea ceremony, I have to go back and do some research, "Fang Yan said. "After all, I've never had tea with a student before. If I really can't find anyone, can I borrow one from another class? "
Lu Chaoge looked at Fang Yan and thought, if you haven't had tea with a student before, have you fought with a student before? It was quite possible that he had struck Despicable before.
"I have a candidate," Lu Chaoge said.
"Who?"
"Qin Yitian."
"Qin Yitian?" Fang Yan was stunned. Is this woman really the omnipotent Ultraman? Is there anything she doesn't know?
"It's the candidate recommended by Principal Zhang," Lu Chaoge said. Lu Chaoge had never had tea with Qin Yitian, and the two had never even had direct contact. However, after the meeting, Principal Zhang Shaofeng specially made a phone call to recommend a candidate for the tea ceremony. Lu Chaoge kept it in mind.
She believed that Principal Zhang Shaofeng wouldn't play any tricks on this kind of thing. After all, if they lost the competition, Lu Chaoge's face would be damaged, and Principal Zhang Shaofeng would be the most shameful person. After all, he was the principal of Rosefinch Secondary.
"Principal Zhang." Fang Yan thoughtfully looked at Lu Chaoge. "Principal Zhang sent Qin Yitian to the ninth class, and they have a good relationship? Could Qin Yitian be Principal Zhang's daughter? "
"…"
"Adopted daughter?"
Lu Chaoge's face slightly changed, and she said, "Don't make wild guesses about the leader's family affairs."
"Haha, just kidding." Fang Yan laughed and said, "I know Principal Lu is busy, so I won't bother you. I'll talk to Qin Yitian and see if she can spare some time to come to class tomorrow … It's really pitiful for a teacher to be like me. "
"You must win." Lu Chaoge said very firmly.
"Don't worry, it's hard to lose." Fang Yan indifferently waved his hand and said.
He walked to the door, then turned to look at Lu Chaoge and said, "If you win, will you really promise me one thing?"
"Yes." Lu Chaoge said. After thinking for a while, she added worriedly, "As long as it's within my ability."
"Don't worry. I'm not that kind of person who doesn't know what's good for me. "Fang Yan said. "Just now when I said that you don't have to pay back the money you owe, it was a joke. Don't take it to heart."
"I understand." Lu Chaoge nodded.
"If you are really willing to promise me one thing, then lend me another sum of money. I'm a little short of money now, and life is very stressful …"
"Get out." Lu Chaoge threw the pen holder on the table at him.

…
Qingfeng Teahouse.
The owner of the teahouse was called Duan Youjun. He opened the teahouse in front of the school because it was a busy main road with more people. Another reason was to attract the business of the teachers and parents of the students.
If the teachers wanted to talk to their friends about something, wouldn't they come to his teahouse for a cup of tea? When the parents of the students came to pick up their children, wouldn't they come to his teahouse when they were bored?
However, what Duan Youjun couldn't understand was why there was a large group of students all of a sudden today.
Not only were there students in Rosefinch Secondary's uniform, but there were also Japanese students speaking Japanese.
Since he couldn't understand, he didn't want to think about it.
He ordered the waiters to welcome the guests warmly and try to satisfy the various requests of the guests. He had to make these students feel at home.
The reason why he came to Qingfeng Teahouse was because he had his own difficulties.
There was a conference room in the school, but there was no corresponding tea set.
There were tea sets in the headmaster's office and the vice headmaster's office, but they were not complete. Also, the space was too small to accommodate so many people at once.
Therefore, Fang Yan suggested to hold the competition at Qingfeng Teahouse in front of the school. He often drank tea here with Huang Haoran's father, Huang Wenqiang, so he knew that Qingfeng Teahouse's environment was good. Also, there were often people competing tea here, and all kinds of tea sets and utensils were available.
Since it was a competition, they needed to set the judges first. Otherwise, they would argue that it was good for them and argue that it was fragrant for them. If they couldn't come to an agreement, they would end up fighting.
Lu Chaoge and Nori Matsushima discussed for a while and decided that both of them would be the judges. The other judge would be Duan Youjun, the owner of Qingfeng Teahouse.
Lu Chaoge went to talk to Duan Youjun, and Duan Youjun naturally agreed.
The reason why he opened a teahouse here was because he was a tea lover. Not only did he drink tea, but he also often accepted tea challenges from others. He could be considered a famous tea master in Huacheng.
Duan Youjun understood the reason and knew that the students of Rosefinch Secondary were going to have a tea ceremony competition with the Japanese students here. He immediately got someone to open up a private room in Qingfeng Pavilion, which was usually not open to the public. This private room was huge and could accommodate dozens of people at the same time. It was a high-class teahouse that he used to compete tea with others and train his staff.
Some of the people were sitting, while others were standing apart from each other. It didn't make people feel crowded.
Everything was ready and waiting for the contestants to enter.
Fang Yan sat behind Lu Chaoge, and Li Ziqiang sat next to Fang Yan.
Li Ziqiang looked straight ahead, but said to Fang Yan, "Fang Yan, I don't like you. I can't like you either. "
Fang Yan was stunned. He didn't expect Li Ziqiang to say this to him at this time. It was so honest, so straightforward.
He really wanted to touch his face and see if he was wearing a mask. Could it be that the guy sitting next to him was the arrogant Director Li who didn't even want to look him in the eye?
Of course, he didn't look at Fang Yan in the eye. He didn't even look at him in the eye.
Fang Yan felt uncomfortable, but he still said with a smile, "It sounds very regrettable, but … it's fair. I don't like Director Li either. "
"Young people should know how to be humble and low-key. Who hasn't been young? Who didn't get through it when they were young? Why are you different from others? Why do you want to amaze the world with one brilliant feat after you come? "Li Ziqiang continued to reprimand. "Besides, you offended Director Zheng, and I owe Director Zheng a favor. It's even more impossible for me to like you. "
"Yes, yes. That's how it should be. "Fang Yan nodded. "Director Li said it very well. If you have any dissatisfaction with me, you can say it directly … Even if I won't change a word, at least you will feel better, right? "
"…"
"Director Li, continue. Continue. I'm listening. "Fang Yan said 'enthusiastically'. Release it well, don't suffocate yourself too much.
"I have nothing to say to you," Li Ziqiang said angrily. "Even if I don't like you a hundred times, but, today … I still want you to win. You have to win too. "
"…" This time, it was Fang Yan's turn to be speechless.
As if it was the first time he met Li Ziqiang, he looked at him in surprise and didn't speak for a long time.
Was this still the Li Ziqiang he knew? Was this still the Director Li who wanted to kick him out of the school?
"Why? Is it strange? "Li Ziqiang sneered. What kind of expression and attitude did Fang Yan have? "Today, we are all Hua Xia people."
"Director Li means … After today, you won't play with me tomorrow, right?"
"…"
