434 Havoc in the Principal’s Office 3

"Oh my god! Ling Yun actually memorized the whole English textbook…"

"That was just a random textbook! He just took a peek at the cover! Godlike…" These people were stunned out of their minds.

"Idiot, he must have memorized it before!"

"His intonation is perfect, and he could remember everything on any random page Principal Zhang turned to. How could this be… His results used to be the rock bottom…" One of the girls nearly fainted with excitement.

"That must be the fruit of his study sessions with his form teacher! The rumors are now completely busted!"

…

Ling Yun just checkmated the whole situation. He looked at the stunned Principal Zhang and smiled. "Mr. Principal, would you like to flip to the last page of the textbook? I can recite the whole page of glossary for you."

Principal Zhang looked up in admiration. He had such a talent in his school!

How superb must his memory be for him to pull this?

Principal Zhang taught English for more than twenty years. His achievements in education had always been top in the whole of Qingshui City. He was sly, but he had a good heart. That was how he advanced in his career to eventually become the Principal of Qingshui High.

Never in his history of education had he come across a student with such invincible memory!

Ling Yun's ability really made him think twice! That got him agitated and exhilarated at the same time!

"There's no need, I believe you have grasped it very well. Your form teacher's contribution cannot be discounted."

Principal Zhang said very seriously to Ling Yun.

"Is there anyone else who thinks that we have some kind of relationship other than that of teacher and student?" Ling Yun questioned.

"I'll kill whoever dares to come up with such rubbish!"

"Yes, we'll not forgive anyone who spreads these lies. Also, there is no time for anything to happen between them for Ling Yun to be able to improve by so much!"

"That's right, Ling Yun's English used to be last in class, but he's gotten so good in the blink of an eye. How can he possibly have time for relationships…"

Ling Yun didn't know whether to laugh or cry at that sentence. Buddy, are you supporting me, or are you criticizing me…

Principal Zhang nodded his head sternly. "Ling Yun, say nothing else. I'll find the most satisfactory way to restore both Teacher Kong's and your reputation. I'll also find the culprit and make sure the creator of the rumors is dismissed immediately."

Principal Zhang had always gone with the flow. He had occasionally taken some benefits for himself as well, but he had never crossed the line when it was a matter of principle.

Ling Yun's showcase of talent meant they had wronged Kong Xiuru, just as Ling Yun said.

A rare prodigy like Ling Yun was the dream of any principal. Principal Zhang had also developed a sense of pride for Ling Yun.

"Great!" Ling Yun smiled. He changed his tone immediately and used the Mystical Dragon Howl again on Principal Zhang. "However, our beloved form teacher has suffered tremendous psychological and physical damage from this episode. She could neither eat nor sleep, yet she continued to conduct classes and mark our test papers tirelessly. She looked as though she would faint any time today. What do you say? Don't you think the school should compensate Teacher Kong?"

It wasn't Ling Yun's nature to let them off so easily! Restoring reputation and her job was just the first step. The most important step was to get benefits!

Ling Yun wouldn't spend so much effort if there were no benefits involved!

Everyone present finally understood why Ling Yun dared to carry Kong Xiuru. Kong Xiuru was feeling faint…

The students of Grade 12 Class 6, however, were perplexed. Their form teacher wasn't that weak.

Indeed, she looked a little pale during first period, but not to the extent of fainting.

Long Wu gave Ling Yun a knowing looking. He was covering a huge hole that he dug here shamelessly!

Zhang Ling also looked at him shyly. She saw everything that happened clearly. Ling Yun initiated the hug, their form teacher wasn't as weak as he made her out to be.

Nonetheless, Zhang Ling's adoration of her beloved deepened further when she saw how he had such foresight.

Principal Zhang was taken aback. Why was there a need to compensate?

"H-how do we compensate?" Principal Zhang asked meekly. They should have never crossed Ling Yun!

"That's negotiable… Loss of youth, psychological damage, reputation damage, loss of time, physical damage… Zhang Ling…"

Ling Yun turned to Zhang Ling for help, he simply couldn't think of any others in such a short span of time.

Zhang Ling was speechless, she didn't want to be dragged into this battle.

Long Wu smiled and came to the rescue. "This will add up to a fair bit. We cannot make things too difficult for Principal Zhang…"

Ling Yun concurred after some thought. He brightened up. "That is a total of one million and eight hundred thousand yuan, what do you think?"

The eyes of everyone popped out!

Ling Yun was really bold! He dared to extort one million and eight hundred thousand yuan from his school principal!

"Ugh…" Principal Zhang was livid but helpless at the same time. He thought that Ling Yun wouldn't do anything excessive since he seemed less angry, but he was wrong. "The school will naturally compensate Teacher Kong, but that should be discussed with your teacher personally. What do you think?"

Ling Yun knew Principal Zhang's game. He would probably persuade her not to take the school's money.

"I'm representing our form teacher in this matter since she's not feeling well. Do you agree or not?"

Ruthlessness flashed across his eyes as he raised his hand, his smile never leaving his face!

"Papapapa…" After more than ten continuous slaps, Wang Weicheng's face became as swollen as a pig's instantly!

"Gah…"

"W-what…"

No one thought that Ling Yun would snap faster than flipping a book. He was just discussing compensation with the principal!

"Sir, look at me. Tell me! Is that rumor true?" Ling Yun roared.

After a dozen slaps, Wang Weicheng's mouth was bleeding, and his face was swollen so badly that his eyes were unable to open.

More than a dozen teeth were sent flying by Ling Yun. Only a few molars were still hanging loosely at the back of his mouth. In the face of great pain, how would he be able to get any words out?

Ling Yun saw Qiu Fenghua taking out her phone secretly. "Call the police, it's best if you connect directly to Luo Zhong, the Director of the Public Security Bureau! I have something to settle with him!" he said with a cruel smile.

"Oh…" Ling Yun was simply too strong!

The phone in Qiu Fenghua's hand dropped onto the floor with a loud thud. Her face was as white as a sheet. Ling Yun seemed to know the police, she would be stupid to call them now!

Qiu Fenghua's fate would be worse than Wang Weicheng in normal circumstances. Ling Yun didn't lay a finger on her only because she was a woman!

Ling Yun turned back to Principal Zhang to negotiate the compensation as though nothing had happened.

Principal Zhang dared not try anything funny after that. If word of this were to go out, Qingshui High would become the butt of jokes. It would be better to settle it immediately. "What about a hundred thousand yuan?"

Ling Yun didn't make any sound. He was half-joking when he came up with the million yuan figure, but what Principal Zhang was offering was way too low.

"Two hundred thousand yuan. Ling Yun, class is going to start soon. Please…" Principal Zhang gave Ling Yun a look, signaling him to give him some face and stop there.

Ling Yun grinned. He used telepathy in his reply to Principal Zhang. "Principal Zhang, My bottom line is nothing less than three hundred and sixty thousand yuan. Don't worry, you are the only one that can hear this. Please give it some thought before you reply."

Principal Zhang was shocked. He glanced around. True to Ling Yun's words, no one else seemed to have heard it!

What was this ability? What other abilities did Ling Yun possess?

Principal Zhang gave it a long thought. He quickly did some math in his heart and announced in a stern tone. "This matter has caused both Teacher Kong and you indelible harm and great grievance. I feel uncomfortable as your principal. We should compensate you and reward Teacher Kong at the same time. How about this. The school will compensate five hundred thousand yuan to Teacher Kong and five hundred thousand yuan to you. A total of one million yuan!"

"Gah…"

"Oh my god, they are seriously going to give one million yuan in compensation…"
