Chapter 39: Pride

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Wang Lingbo had been the principal of Tianyi High School for seven years.

In the past few years, he had been desperately trying to improve the school, and he had aspirations to achieve results.

However, it hadn’t been fruitful. Tianyi High School was still ranked in the middle and lower ranks in the entire province.

Of the 306 high schools in the province, Tianyi High School was only ranked around 100th.

This time, Tianyi High School produced Li Chengqian, who got first place in the entire province, and he even got a perfect score of 750 marks.

For this alone, Tianyi High School would become famous throughout the province.

All the schools would remember Tianyi High School because of this.

As long as Li Chengqian excelled in the official university entrance examination and scored full marks, Tianyi High School’s ranking would rise by at least 30 places!

He could also use this opportunity to advance his career.

Therefore, when he heard Chen Qingquan say that he wanted to expel Li Chengqian, he hit the roof.

Expelling Li Chengqian was in effect destroying Wang Lingbo’s career path.

“Principal, why are you here?” Seeing Wang Lingbo walk in, a trace of panic flashed across Chen Qingquan’s eyes.

“If I hadn’t come, I wouldn’t even know that you fired Li Chengqian.” Wang Lingbo didn’t hide his anger. His voice was trembling.

“Director Chen, do you know what you’re doing?” Wang Lingbo’s voice was terrifyingly cold. He was questioning Chen Qingquan.

Before Chen Qingquan could explain, he spoke again. “Li Chengqian scored full marks for the second mock exam. He came in first in the entire province!”

“Chen Qingquan, are you going to expel the number one in the province?” Wang Lingbo roared, not giving Chen Qingquan any face.

“What? Number one in the province? Full marks! How is this possible...” Chen Qingquan was instantly stunned as he looked at Li Chengqian in disbelief.

Right on the heels of that, he understood why Wang Lingbo was so angry!

Then, he realized the seriousness of the matter. On a micro level, he was abusing his power!

On a macro level, he was undermining Tianyi High School and Wang Lingbo.

His face went pale.

The arrogance that he displayed to Li Chengqian and his mother earlier instantly disappeared without a trace. There was an embarrassed smile on his face as he hurriedly found an excuse for himself. “Principal, it’s a misunderstanding. I was just saying. How could I possibly expel Li Chengqian?”

“He privately called the police and violated the school rules. I just wanted him to realize the seriousness of the matter.” With a change of tone, he pushed all the blame onto Li Chengqian.

“Director Chen, I know what’s going on.”

“You are suspended for two months! Reflect on yourself!” Wang Lingbo said coldly.

Chen Qingquan’s face fell. He cursed Liu Wendao in his heart. “Liu Wendao, that bastard, is so immoral. He actually lied to me and said that Li Chengqian only scored 280 points in the last exam, causing me to be punished.”

If he had known that Li Chengqian scored 750 points in this exam, he would absolutely not use such an attitude and tone to speak to Li Chengqian.

After Wang Lingbo finished scolding, the expression on his face became more approachable. He turned to look at Li Chengqian and Chen Li and said apologetically, “You should be Li Chengqian’s parents? I’m really sorry that something like this happened.”

“Li Chengqian, please don’t take this matter to heart.”

“Don’t worry, I’ll handle this matter properly and give you a satisfactory solution!”

“Parents, please don’t worry. Li Chengqian will definitely not be bullied in our school.”

What did 750 marks mean? It meant that Li Chengqian could apply to any school and he would be most warmly welcomed.

To any school, Li Chengqian was a treasure!

“Principal, I believe you. Thank you.” Chen Li was flattered. In the past, because of Li Chengqian’s results, no teacher had ever been so polite to her, let alone the principal.

She was not used to this change.

Chen Qingquan stood at the side. After seeing this scene, his anger towards Liu Wendao grew.

Wang Lingbo didn’t stand on ceremony with him. When he was with Li Chengqian, he was all smiles and cautious. This made him extremely uncomfortable. “It’s all because of that bastard Liu Wendao that things turned out this way.”

“Come, let’s talk in my office. I would like to understand how you raised such an outstanding child as Li Chengqian?”

“My child is also in high school now. His results are also giving me a headache... I have to learn from you.” Wang Lingbo was all smiles as he invited Chen Li to step forward.

“You’re too kind.” Chen Li looked at Li Chengqian with a pleading gaze. Although being respected by the principal made her feel especially comfortable and proud, it was hard to suddenly get used to this.

“Student Li Chengqian, you see...” Wang Lingbo looked at Li Chengqian, who hadn’t said anything.

“Principal, I want to go back to the classroom to thank those people who helped me.” Li Chengqian smiled as he spoke, a cold light flashing in his eyes.

When Liu Daqiang sent him the photoshopped photo, he said, “Let me show you a joke.”

Li Chengqian hadn’t forgotten.

He was also prepared to let everyone see this joke now.

“Let’s go, I’ll go with you!” When Wang Lingbo heard Li Chengqian’s request, he heaved a sigh of relief in his heart and then spoke with a smile.

Very quickly, the few of them arrived at the classroom of Grade 12 Class 5. Wang Lingbo waved at Teacher Wang Jianjia, “Teacher Wang, Li Chengqian would like to say a few words of thanks.”

Wang Jianjia naturally wouldn’t object. “Dear parents and classmates, Li Chengqian would like to say a few words to everyone. Please welcome him.”

Li Chengqian did not have any stage fright. After thanking the teacher, he walked up to the podium.

“I know. Everyone is curious about why I could go from 280 marks to 750 marks!”

With just one sentence, he attracted everyone’s attention.

“First of all, I want to thank my parents. No matter what my results are, they haven’t given up on me. They’ve always supported me. All my achievements are due to my parents. All my glory and results belong to them.” Li Chengqian bowed deeply to Chen Li.

...

Chen Li shed tears again, but she smiled at Li Chengqian. For the first time, her face was filled with pride.

All the parents looked at Chen Li with envy. How they wished that the person standing on the podium was their child.

“Secondly, I want to thank Teacher Wang. Previously, my results were always the worst in the class, but when everyone gave up on me, Teacher Wang kept encouraging me not to give up.” After Li Chengqian finished speaking, he turned to Teacher Wang Jianjia and sincerely bowed.

“I didn’t help you much,” Wang Jianjia said somewhat embarrassedly. She just kept encouraging Li Chengqian not to give up, and in terms of learning, she really didn’t help him much.

“Gratitude is a person’s most important character. Li Chengqian is a grateful person.” Wang Lingbo nodded with admiration on his face. There were actually many students with good results these days, but there were not many who knew how to be grateful.

“Again, I want to thank the people who looked down on me. They were the ones who spurred me to improve and to achieve my current results...”

“Using this parent-teacher meeting as an opportunity, with the principal and teacher as witnesses, I want to especially thank a person. He is Liu Daqiang...” As Li Chengqian spoke, under everyone’s puzzled gazes, he logged into WeChat on the computer in front of him.

After finding Liu Daqiang, he opened the message Liu Daqiang had sent him and displayed it in front of everyone.

Instantly, everyone widened their eyes in disbelief.
