Chapter 250: 243 Stealing Students

Tang Yuxin and Xu Lidong, along with Xu Miaomiao, once again stood in the principal’s office. They had been summoned by the principal.

“Did that old witch say something about me again? Should I call my dad?” Xu Miaomiao blinked her pitiful eyes, almost developing paranoia.

“You’re already so grown-up, do you still need your daddy?” Chen Lidong extended his hand, giving Xu Miaomiao’s face a firm pinch, “It’s fine, your brother is here. He’s grown up now, he can protect you,” and after saying that, he patted his own chest.

Xu Miaomiao looked at him scornfully for quite a while, “You’ve grown up, but you haven’t even grown a full beard.”

“How can it not be full? It’s totally full, want to take a look?” Saying that, he leaned his face closer, and from under his chin a few newly grown bristles were indeed peeking out.

“Get lost!” Xu Miaomiao clenched her teeth, wishing she could kick Chen Lidong.

Tang Yuxin massaged her forehead. She wondered how could there be such a foolish person in the world, or was it true that everyone has to go through their foolish years?

The era of men in white fluttering coats, could it be because it truly looked good?

“Ahem…” A coughing sound came.

Xu Miaomiao quickly straightened her body, as did Chen Lidong, daring not to talk anymore.

The principal walked in, and upon seeing these three children, he immediately appeared friendly and amiable. They were the top students destined for Nanqing University, Qing University, Beijing University. The hopes of their generation rested on them.

However, the three of them were frightened by the principal’s cunning smile, it sent chills down their spines as if they were being plotted against.

“I heard your test scores were quite impressive?” The principal’s tone was even softer, his face beaming brighter.

Tang Yuxin acted modestly, her bright eyes glowing warm.

“It’s all thanks to our teachers and the good resources provided by the school.”

Everyone loves to hear such words, especially the principal.

Indeed, upon hearing that, the principal lifted his chin and straightened up his back. “Not to boast, the quality of education at our No.5 Middle School is second to none in Qing’an. We are the top high school here, and we have a guaranteed college entry rate every year.”

Tang Yuxin and the others listened seriously. The principal, gaining momentum, almost began to recite the history of No.5 Middle school, its students’ achievements, and showed them the certificates won by the school over the years.

Oops? While opening the cabinet, the principal realized that he had gotten off track. Those students had made him lose his focus on the real issue at hand.

“Let me mention something to you first.”

Tang Yuxin knew it, if there’s no wind, there will be no waves. If they were summoned here, there must be a reason. If there wasn’t, they wouldn’t be here right now. But she didn’t know what the matter was?

“Actually, it’s nothing,” the principal folded his hands together and placed them on the table.

“I’ve seen your scores, they’re quite good. I mean, with such good scores, you can’t stay in Class 1. I’m thinking of moving you to Class 5. That’s the best elite class in our No.5 Middle School.”

“Sure,” Tang Yuxin happily agreed. But no one could see the indifference that suddenly appeared in her eyes.

Xu Miaomiao tugged at her hand. She wouldn’t go to Class 5, she’d rather die. Chen Lidong frowned similarly, and it was clear that he was also unwilling.

The principal heaved a sigh of relief, as long as they agreed. Good seeds should be planted in good soil.

“Is our Teacher Jin going too?”

Tang Yuxin’s unexpected question startled the principal. Before he could react, Tang Yuxin’s next sentence surprised him even more.

“Are the students in our class going too? We’ve always said we’ll stick together wherever we go, including our teacher. Mr. Principal, you want us to move to the Class 5 classroom, right? I thought so…” Tang Yuxin continued to smile, but her eyes didn’t show the slightest hint of laughter.

“We hate Teacher Song so much. We’ve offended her before. If she becomes our teacher, our grades might get worse because of her torture.”

“Exactly,” Xu Miaomiao pouted, “Anyway, I don’t want Teacher Song. If she becomes my teacher, I will transfer schools.”

“I’ll transfer too,” Chen Lidong has always been very clear about his likes and dislikes. If he doesn’t like someone, he just doesn’t, and that’s it.

“If they’re leaving, I’m leaving too,” the smile on Tang Yuxin’s face finally faded, “The three of us have been together since junior high school. We have our own study methods, and we can’t be without anyone.”

The principal was struck speechless for a long while. He initially assumed that these three students would willingly go without a word. Who wouldn’t want to go to an elite class, a better class?

Being in a good class means faster progress, doesn’t it?

But this time, there were students who didn’t want to go. Now the principal was really in a dilemma. He couldn’t let these three students transfer out. With such good grades, they would be valued in any school. If he lost the top performers, he wouldn’t be able to serve as the principal anymore.

Forget it, he massaged his tense forehead.

Let them be, it didn’t matter which class they were in. If their end-term results drop significantly, they would deal with it then.

Outside, teachers Song and Jin were standing face to face.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Teacher Song had always been smiling in a self-confident manner. She put her hand in her pocket, took out a pen, and started to play with it.

“Teacher Jin, I’m truly sorry about this.”

She said sorry, but it wasn’t reflected in her eyes.

Teacher Jin tightly pressed her lips together. Her fingers behind her had clenched into a fist. Shameless, utterly shameless. Those were her students, she had taught them. Why should they be taken away just because they were performing well?

“You can’t blame me for this. You should know, your class can’t keep the good students. They are being led astray by you, the class atmosphere is not good,” Teacher Song sighed, stealing someone else’s student without feeling guilty.

Yes, this was school life. Who said there were no wars in school? The wars in school were more intense than real wars. There may be no smoke of gunpowder, but it could decide one’s life and death in a blink.

Teacher Jin’s nose was slightly sour with anger, but she didn’t want to cry here.

Suddenly, with a creak, the principal’s office door opened.

“You can follow me now,” Teacher Song turned around, her tone was like bestowing alms.

Tang Yuxin and the others came over but only greeted Teacher Jin.
