Chapter 76
On the second day, when Shi Li arrived at school, she was shocked by the human wall at the school gate.
Students wearing Qianpu School uniforms were blocking the entrance, a situation that had never occurred before.
Despite the security guards' attempts to clear the way, the students at the front weren't moving towards the classrooms, and Shi Li couldn't take a single step forward.
It was mid-January, the coldest time of the year.
Standing outside for a long time, Shi Li shivered from the cold, feeling as if she might ascend to heaven at any moment.
She wondered what could have happened at school today to cause such a blockage at the gate.
Two students standing in front of Shi Li were discussing the very thing she was curious about.
In five minutes, she advanced ten meters.
Ten meters, a small step for Shi Li, a giant leap for civilization.
It was in this short ten meters that Shi Li could finally see what was happening.
Near the school gate, there was a mobile television playing some R-rated male-on-male content, and the two protagonists were none other than familiar faces.
One of them was Principal Lu, who had called away the Class Teacher yesterday. Shi Li had seen him before during school assemblies and recognized him.
As for the other male lead, Shi Li wasn't familiar with him.
But while Shi Li didn't recognize him, others did. A male student behind Shi Li cursed, "Holy shit, isn't that our chemistry teacher?"
His shock was palpable, even though Shi Li hadn't turned around.
Next to the mobile display device was an elegant and graceful lady. She was well-preserved, but the traces of age were still visible on her face; she must be quite mature.
The identity of this beautiful lady was thus obvious.
The young chemistry teacher couldn't possibly have a wife of that age, so she could only be the wife of the other protagonist, Principal Lu. DiiScôver new stories on no/v/e()/lbin(.)c/o/m
Beside her stood several other ladies dressed just as luxuriously, either her sisters or friends, positioned protectively behind her.
This behavior severely disrupted the school's normal order. With students blocking the gate, there was a risk of a stampede. The security guards wanted to disperse these people.
But they didn't dare to use force. Two burly men over 1.9 meters tall stood next to the group of women, clearly bodyguards.
Moreover, these ladies were dressed so elegantly that they were obviously either rich or noble. The guards feared they might have to pay compensation if they accidentally hurt them.
But even after three short videos had played outside the school gate, no one from the school had come out to address the situation.
It could be said that Principal Lu was lucky; the headmaster of Qianpu School was out of town for a meeting, not in Blue City.
The other vice principals of Qianpu were present and had heard about the incident early on.
The problem was that as fellow vice principals, they were competitors. At this moment, they all hoped the situation would become even more embarrassing and harder to resolve.
This way, if the old fox was lucky, he might be stuck in the position of vice principal for the rest of his career. If he was unlucky, he might be directly fired from the school.
If they could uncover other instances of his dereliction of duty, it wouldn't just be dismissal; he might even be handed over to the public security bureau.
With everyone harboring such thoughts, how could they possibly come forward to resolve the situation?
They all hoped it would escalate even further.
When the bell for the first self-study period rang, only Shi Li's classmates and a few students from other classes remained at the gate.
After the self-study bell rang, the security guards felt more confident in driving the remaining few back, "Class has already started, hurry up and go in."
"The Class Teacher will start taking attendance soon, be careful or they'll inform your parents."
Shi Li: [The Class Teacher is right behind us]
The Class Teacher felt deflated. This damned kid really didn't leave any face for him as a teacher. Fortunately, only the students from his own class could hear his thoughts. It was okay to lose face in front of his own students, but if students from other classes heard how his students were criticizing him, he would lose face in front of the whole school.
Everyone looked expectantly at the class monitor of Class 1. Receiving his classmates' hopeful gazes, the monitor had no choice but to look towards the Class Teacher.
Surprisingly, the Class Teacher seemed to understand the monitor's complex gaze: Don't forget who saved your ass yesterday.
One good turn deserves another. The monitor had indeed saved him yesterday, that was an undeniable fact.
The Class Teacher had to clear his throat and negotiate with the security guard, "Brother, I'm the teacher of Class 1, Grade 10, and these are my students. To prepare for the final exams, I've organized a relaxation session outside the school during self-study period. This way, they can better face the exams in a few days."
Security Guard: I may not be well-educated, but don't try to fool me.
If they wanted to get good grades, shouldn't they be studying more in the classroom? What kind of situation was this, relaxing outside the school?
Moreover, even if they were relaxing, shouldn't they go to a nicer place? It was minus ten degrees outside, a world of ice and snow. Did he really think this could help the students relax?
The security guard only said these things in his heart. Since the Class Teacher had spoken, he naturally wouldn't be so tactless as to argue.
He had no choice but to let these students stay, and the few students from other classes were lucky enough to be treated as part of the group, not driven into the school by the security guards.
A round figure could be seen jogging towards the school gate. With that characteristic layer of fat, it could be none other than Director Zhu.
