Chapter 284 - I’m Jealous

After Principal Kong had delivered his message, he saw that his comment had shot up to the top trending list in all of the school’s social networks. Every netizen who had been able to read the post caught sight of the principal’s commentary.

Immediately, they were all convinced.

“The Principal of the school? Why would the Principal of the school defend such a lowly student? Are you out of your mind?”

“Great, the trolls actually wanted to impersonate the principal of No. 1 High School. Don’t you think they should be held legally responsible for their actions? This is too much.”

“Yeah, you’re the principal. I’m also the mayor. Are we done pretending now?”

“They’re probably just trying to get some more attention—trying to divert us from the issue. We shouldn’t bother with them. Instead, let’s keep this post trending. Let’s see what the real No. 1 High School can say about this!”

Hundreds of messages started flooding in.

Principal Kong’s post had also gained even more traction as more and more students clicked on it.

“I don’t believe that a principal would come and manage such a small matter. If you really are the principal, then I’ll head over to the entrance of No. 1 High School myself and kneel in front of everyone!”

“Hey, the one who commented about kneeling, you better fulfill your promise. Look at his homepage. It’s clear that he’s the principal of No. 1 High School. He’s friends with all the professors!”

“What?”

“You’re kidding.”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Shit! It really is the real principal!”

“He even listed his personal business card, as well as his other titles and certifications. It says here that he’s a Special Professor of Law and the President of the Psychology Association. Damn, this principal is amazing!”

“It seems I didn’t misread the homepage.”

“Sure, that may be the principal’s account. But, don’t you think there’s a possibility that the official number has been stolen by those hackers? I don’t believe he’d actually post something like this.”

“There’s a possibility.”

Principal Kong was reading through the comment section when he saw the last two comments pop out. Snorting coldly, he rolled his eyes. Why were these people spreading even more rumors? Had he not clarified it enough?

“We’ll find out soon,” he submitted a reply to the comments section before dialing a number.

“Principal Kong,” a voice sounded from the other line. “This is Chen Xiao. What can I do for you?”

“You’re working on the school’s website, right? I need you to do something for me...”

Soon, many students from No. 1 High School glanced at Zhang Dong’s post, wanting to see what the fuss was all about. The comments section, within the next few minutes, started flooding in.

“What happened?”

“The school website posted a clarification!”

“Oh my god, someone actually accused Principal Kong of being hacked?”

The comments section now had an influx of No. 1 High School students who were all stunned by the sudden attention.

What was going on?

One student who had finally made sense of everything posted his own commentary.

“Some people believed that the principal’s account wasn’t a real person, so the principal joined forces with the school’s official website to post their statement. Now that it was posted, everyone should believe it, right? The Principal’s account is indeed being used by a real person.”

The people who had been clamoring about the principal’s account being hacked started to delete their posts one after the other. They were too embarrassed to even peek at the screen.

How were they supposed to know that they were indeed chatting a real person?

This was embarrassing!

Really embarrassing!

But it was fine. As soon as the storm passed, no one would remember what they had posted online and what other embarrassing words they had said. They gulped, patting themselves in the chest.

After confirming that the account was indeed being used by a real person, the netizens couldn’t help but feel surprised. Who would’ve thought that the principal felt this concerned about his students?

“Just because someone had misunderstood a student from No. 1 High School, the principal automatically hops in to criticize them? Where could we find such a principal?”

“Damn, I’m jealous. I wish I had a principal like that.”

“Same here!”
