Only Teacher Zhou sat there without saying a word while marking homework, pretending he had not heard anything.
“Teacher Zhou, do you want to come along?” Sun Jianguo approached and asked.
“No need, I am ashamed to be associated with you lot!” Teacher Zhou had always been a very direct person and directly mocked.
“Old Zhou, I just do not understand. You have been at Yujinxiang for over ten years now. How come you have no insight at all? Is that Luo Chen worth you taking his side?” Sun Jianguo said sarcastically.
“First of all, I have not taken his side. Then, Director Chen, I hope you can still be like Teacher Luo, work steadily for the students and for education. Do not always have crooked ideas.”
“Moreover, at least on this point, Director Chen, you are not as good as Teacher Luo. Also we are teachers, we should behave properly and act upright. I think Teacher Luo will definitely be able to hold a good parents meeting for Class Three tomorrow. You all may be getting happy a bit too early.” Teacher Zhou showed no mercy at all.
“Teacher Zhou, please watch your words!” Sun Jianguo stood up and slapped the table as he spoke.
“You and Luo Chen are indeed birds of a feather. You do not even look at his identity and status. What does he have to compare with our Director Chen?”
“You will regret it sooner or later!”
Meanwhile Teacher Zhou picked up the homework and left.
In fact, he had just been unable to stand Chen Chao and Sun Jianguo. Sun Jianguo’s conduct at the school did indeed have problems, so he had spoken that way.
Regarding whether Luo Chen could invite the parents of Class Three, this time even Teacher Zhou had no confidence in his heart.
After all, the more he understood, the more he knew it was impossible.
Just as he went out the door, he ran into Luo Chen.
“Teacher Luo, tomorrow?” Teacher Zhou asked anxiously.
“What about tomorrow?” Luo Chen looked very puzzled.
“Teacher Luo, can you really invite the parents of Class Three?” Teacher Zhou asked.
“Yes.” Luo Chen nodded.
“Teacher Luo, if you can really invite them, then please make sure to do it. I really cannot stand the faces of some people.” Teacher Zhou had just been bullied in the office and was a bit angry.
So he very much hoped that Luo Chen could stand up for himself tomorrow and give Chen Chao and Sun Jianguo a hard slap in the face.
The next morning, Chen Chao still had Sun Jianguo go to the gate to take a look, but there was no movement at all. Then Sun Jianguo simply called the security guard and told him that if there was any activity, to notify him promptly.
Chen Chao sat in the office with his legs crossed, and he had even used his father’s connections to learn that the top leader of Tongzhou had gone to the province today for a work report. It looked like he would not be coming back.
After eating breakfast, classes began. The only thing that was rather strange was that Teacher Zhou almost walked into the wrong classroom.
Because the first lesson was English for Class Three, Teacher Zhou still went to Class Three as usual.
Class Three’s daily routine was to boast, chat and fool around. They would not pay any attention to the teacher who came to class at all. Anyway, you lecture up there, and they play down here.
What Teacher Zhou remembered most was last winter. When he was lecturing up there, Liu Ziwen and his group were playing cards down below, completely not treating him as a teacher. That might have been the humiliation of his teaching career so far.
But today was different. Every student in Class Three was wearing school uniform. Even the one who liked makeup the most, Shishi, was without makeup today.
Moreover, after entering, Han Xiu actually took the initiative to say hello to the teacher.
This made Teacher Zhou immediately suspect he had gone to the wrong place. Then he ran to the next class, and only after confirming it really was Class Three did he come back in.
However Teacher Zhou was still very scared, because there is an old saying that when things are abnormal there must be something wrong. Today the students of Class Three were behaving too abnormally.
Everyone had their textbooks open in front of them, seeming to be waiting for something. This made Teacher Zhou tense up at once, because he feared that this group of students might have some bad plan to mess with him.
But after teaching for over ten minutes, Teacher Zhou discovered that this was the first time he had found the feeling of teaching in Class Three. Although many people might not understand anything, they were all listening seriously, or at least pretending to listen seriously.
Even Liu Ziwen today did not lie on the desk sleeping.
There were even people taking notes.
Until the lesson ended, Teacher Zhou safely walked out of Class Three and breathed a sigh of relief. However he became more and more puzzled. What on earth was wrong with this group of students in Class Three today?
The whole morning was actually very quiet, right up to the last lesson in the afternoon, and still not a single parent had come.
“Humph, Teacher Luo, it looks like your parents meeting has fallen through. Do not tell me that the parents will only come after class.”
Chen Chao found Luo Chen and mocked him, because parents meetings are generally held in the morning. It is rare to have them in the afternoon, and even rarer after school.
“Is it any of your business?” Luo Chen put his hands in his pockets and then swaggered away.
“Luo, do you know why Xiaoman chose me and not you?” Chen Chao suddenly shouted at Luo Chen.
This time it did make Luo Chen stop.
“Because Xiaoman told me that it is not because I have money at home and background that she likes me. She likes people who are down to earth and do not boast or talk big, and I happen to be exactly that kind of person.” Chen Chao said very arrogantly and mockingly.
He had heard Zhang Xiaoman say that Luo Chen loved her very much when they were at university. So now that he had stolen the other’s girlfriend, Luo Chen’s heart must be very uncomfortable.
This was his trump card, and it was also uncovering Luo Chen’s scar.
Humph, get angry. The more angry you get, the more it shows you are hurting and care more. Then I will be even happier, and I will have that satisfying feeling of stepping on you!
All along, Chen Chao had looked down on Luo Chen. But this person he looked down on had repeatedly made him suffer losses. This time, he must win back a round.
But what surprised or was unexpected to Chen Chao was that Luo Chen not only did not get angry, but even smiled, and then said coldly.
“You are really pitiful!”
Zhang Xiaoman even deceived you and did not tell you the truth. Is that not a kind of pitifulness?
In his previous life, he was also like that, a pitiful person. But in this life, he was not!
After saying this, Luo Chen left.
This instead gave Chen Chao a sense of defeat.
He even felt that his dignity had been trampled on once again.
“Luo, what are you so proud of? I am waiting to see how you end up today!” Chen Chao shouted at Luo Chen’s back.
But immediately his phone rang.
When he answered the call, it was Sun Jianguo’s panicked voice.
“Not good, Director Chen, something has happened!”
At the school gate, one luxury car after another. If it was just luxury cars alone, perhaps it would not be surprising. But these luxury cars had number plates that were either Qilin number or some rarely seen plate numbers. This meant that every car carried a big shot from Tongzhou.
