The entire Tulip school was now in complete chaos.
Before even getting close, they could already see thick black smoke rolling above the school, yet no fire engines had arrived.
Clearly it was not any building on fire.
When Luo Chen and An Ling Yu arrived here they could not help but freeze. The scene was simply too big.
Right now the school playground was piled high with benches and books, forming a small mountain, and it had already been set alight. Flames shot into the sky.
Sparse smoke filled the entire school, turning the whole place into a smoky mess.
Especially the senior three students. Senior three already had heavy studies and the greatest pressure of their entire student life. On top of that, students at this stage were right in the middle of the most rebellious period of youth.
So almost with just a single spark the entire senior three year group had been completely ignited.
Many people had all joined the army of those burning textbooks and homework.
The teachers at Tulip had tried to calm them earlier, but it was completely useless. The whole of Tulip was almost going mad.
All the teachers and students of the school were gathered around the playground. In the very centre of the playground was the group from senior three class three.
And these guys were not burning their own textbooks. They were all textbooks and homework from other classes.
“Stop burning, oh my ancestors, what exactly will it take for you to stop?” The principal of Tulip tried to block them while pleading.
But no one paid him any attention. They continued doing whatever they were doing.
Ye Sheng Tao was directing a group of people to keep carrying benches and books from the classrooms.
Han Xiu on the other hand was sitting on a bench with a cigarette in his mouth, directing the people around him to keep throwing textbooks into the fire pit.
“What exactly do you want to do? Are you trying to rebel?” Chen Chao, as the form teacher of class three, could only watch helplessly as the senior three class three students caused trouble in the school.
“Everyone is so tired from studying and still has to do so much homework. We are doing this for everyone’s own good.” Han Xiu had a smile all over his face.
“You, bring over those exam papers from over there. Doing exam papers every day, people are almost turning stupid from it.” Han Xiu pointed at a student from another class and cursed.
And that student not only did not think Han Xiu was wrong but actually brought over a whole box of exam papers and threw them into the fire.
He had wanted to do this for a long time. Now he only got five hours of sleep each day and faced thick boxes of exam papers that made him want to vomit.
“Stop it, stop right now. Do you know what you are actually doing?” Chen Chao roared from the side.
But Han Xiu cursed back, “I say, Young Master Chen, are you fucking annoying?”
“If you have the ability then come over and stop us!” Han Xiu casually picked up a steel pipe beside him and waved it.
Yet despite how fiercely Chen Chao was shouting, he always kept a very safe distance. He and Sun Jian Guo did not dare to go over at all.
If they went over they might really get beaten.
He had originally thought that after driving Luo Chen away he, Chen Chao, would rise smoothly.
But now?
The education bureau had already clearly told him that with such a big incident happening at Tulip school, Chen Chao’s promotion was now hopeless.
And this mess had still not been cleaned up.
It looked like if this continued the students would not stop until they burned the whole school down.
All of this would be counted on his head. These past few days he had already been extremely anxious.
“Stop causing trouble. If you continue like this it will be bad for all of you!” Although Chen Chao wanted to stop them he had no way at all, because senior three class three simply refused to listen to him.
“Chen Chao, shut your fucking mouth. Believe it or not I will throw you into the fire too.” Ye Sheng Tao pointed at Chen Chao and cursed.
And Chen Chao really did not dare to speak anymore. Although the whole school teachers and students were watching, he could not afford to provoke Ye Sheng Tao or offend him.
Moreover Ye Sheng Tao was not just talking. With that guy’s temper he really could do such a thing.
But looking at the playground with flames reaching the sky, the principal of Tulip could not take it anymore.
“Chen Chao, have you not always demanded that I hand senior three class three over to you to manage?”
“Then why do you not manage them for me to see!”
“Look at what the entire Tulip school has become now?” The principal of Tulip pointed at Chen Chao and scolded.
The people from senior three class three were not only going into classrooms themselves to carry textbooks but were also directing others to do it together. Now the entire Tulip school could not hold classes anymore.
This scolding made Chen Chao’s face turn red and white by turns, but he could only clench his fists tightly and had no way to speak.
Because the facts were right in front of him, and if he said a few more words he was really afraid Ye Sheng Tao would throw him into the fire.
“Without the ability yet still taking on this matter, look at how you have turned Tulip school into such a mess?”
“When Teacher Luo left, senior three class three was perfectly fine. The moment it reached your hands it turned into this in the blink of an eye. Chen Chao, ah, Chen Chao, can you do something a man should do?”
“Yes, Teacher Chen, manage the students in your class. Look, the textbooks in our senior three class four classroom are almost all carried away.” One of the teachers stood out and accused him.
“Teacher Chen, students from your class injured six people who are still lying in the infirmary now. You figure out how to solve it yourself.”
“Teacher Chen, hurry up and stop these kids from burning the textbooks first. This is the urgent matter right now!”
Voices of accusation came one after another at Chen Chao, yet Chen Chao just stood there with his head lowered like a dog and did not speak.
What could he do?
He knew everything they said, but what could he do?
He could not do it!
“My ancestors, stop burning. If you keep burning there will be nothing left.” The principal of Tulip pleaded with a bitter face.
But no one paid him any attention. The students from senior three class three continued doing whatever they were doing.
“Zi Wen, shall we go carry some books from the library to burn?” Han Xiu said with hands on his waist.
“Let’s go.” Liu Zi Wen had also thrown caution to the wind. At worst they would make the matter even bigger. Anyway Chen Chao was their form teacher now. If they caused trouble Chen Chao would have to suffer with them!
But as soon as they heard they were going to carry books from the library, the principal of Tulip was scared out of his wits.
He did not dare to call people to block these kids. The six security guards were still lying in the infirmary.
As for calling the police, the police did not want to deal with them anymore.
As soon as the police arrived these students would immediately run back to the classrooms and sit quietly. As soon as the police left they would come out and cause trouble again.
It was impossible for the police to stay here twenty four hours a day, and leaving one or two police officers would be completely useless.
Last night at two in the morning Ye Sheng Tao had almost gotten into a fight with the police.
Regardless of whether what Ye Sheng Tao did was right or wrong, one thing was certain. They were still students, so as teachers of the school they definitely had to take responsibility.
So hearing that they wanted to carry books from the library he was truly frightened. He could not block them and could not persuade them.
If these people really went to carry the books from the library and burn them too, the matter would become far too big.
His position as principal might not even be safe.
“Chen Chao, say something!”
“Chen Chao!” The principal’s roar echoed across the empty playground.
“If you dare say one word I will immediately throw you in.” Ye Sheng Tao looked at Chen Chao with ice cold eyes.
Chen Chao originally opened his mouth but immediately closed it again.
In front of the whole school teachers and students, Chen Chao just backed down like this.
“Tsk! Really fucking useless!”
“Teacher Chen, you are just a coward!”
“Teacher Chen Chao, you do not even dare to manage a student!”
Sentence after sentence of reproach and cursing made Chen Chao’s face turn red with suppressed anger.
And the people from senior three class three were not just talking. Han Xiu really stood up with some people and headed towards the library.
The principal of Tulip was so anxious he was almost crying.
Right at this moment a voice came from the direction of the school gate. “What are you trying to do?”
