My Secretary is a Little Sweet - Chapter 577

Chapter 577: Ruining the University

“Bro, you haven’t made a mistake, have you?”

That Ms. Zhao Anan on the paper… could that really mean her?

Jing Yichen looked at her calmly and killed her last remaining hope. “It is you.”

Oh my dearest cousin, are you joking?

She was well aware of her capabilities.

She had been an English teacher because she spoke good English. But being the principal was way beyond her abilities.

“Well… bro, I know you are being nice to me and are worried that I will be expelled once again by the principal. That is why you gave me this position, right? But I am not that capable! Please, get me another job, like a teacher or something.”

“Don’t be late tomorrow. Every principal is supposed to deliver an induction speech. Prepare it today because every teacher and student of the school will be watching you. If you want to humiliate yourself, then you can skip the preparations. But don’t tell anyone that you are my cousin.”

Having said the words, Jing Yichen stood up and turned to walk away with the black leather briefcase in his hand.

“You can chat first. When you are done, I will speak with Mayor Yu. You know the consequences if you try and run.”

Zhao Anan’s face turned bitter. Being on a blind date with this mayor was a minor matter at the moment. She was only meeting him and that too for the first time rather than marrying him. She could simply tell her grandmother that this man was not fit for her and get over with it.

But becoming the Principal of University of X?

She was definitely not going to be able to run away from this fact when the certificate of employment had been given to her.

She used to think that it was great that her cousin was capable of doing anything because he could take care of all the trouble she made. With him around, she could live an easy and relaxed life.

But right now, she felt that it was not necessarily a good thing to have such a capable cousin.

Zhao Anan rushed to the door and blocked Jing Yichen’s path. “Bro, my bro! Could you not throw your sister into the fire? I am going to ruin the entire school if I became the principal. You can’t destroy the future of the nation.”

“A principal only needs to maintain the general situation and be a skilled coordinator. You don’t need to teach anyone, so the students are not your business.”

“To maintain the general situation? Me? Bro, don’t toy with me! I can’t even take care of myself, how can I instruct those professors? My attention span is not more than three minutes and I can never do anything well. University of X will be ruined, and I will be blamed.”

University of X was a prestigious university in the country. It’s annual index of achievement was very high and was based on three parameters – the quality of teachers, students enrollment and the three years’ development after their graduation. There were several awards the school needed to receive and if one component did not meet the standard, the rank would drop, and the recruitment of the following year would drop as well.

Zhao Anan had been a teacher at University of X earlier. She could become a professor there because Jing Yichen had helped her at the time. She had never written any dissertation and wouldn’t have been able to become a professor without his aid.

And if she ended up ruining University of X, then the students and the parents would blame her.

It was too important a mission for a tiny person like her.

She would never have a free day if she really became the principal.

“Bro, take away the certificate. I can’t become the principal!”

“That certificate stays with you. The Education Bureau has approved it and sent it to the school, as well. Even if the certificate is taken away, you are already hired. So you have to take up the position, anyway.”

Jing Yichen had never explained anything to Zhao Anan so patiently, but this made Zhao Anan even more anxious.

“But… but I am not prepared. How will I be able to control such a huge school? Why didn’t you tell me earlier so that I could be prepared ahead of time? What am I going to say in the speech tomorrow? I can’t think of anything!”

Jing Yichen said neutrally, “Are you so stupid that you can’t even deliver a speech?!”

“Yes, I am stupid, but you can’t kill me for it, bro. I will report you to my sister-in-law if you keep setting me up.”

“Stop yelling. Just go and start working from tomorrow. You will have an assistant who will help you with the work. All you need to do is cooperate.”

Jing Yichen did not care if Zhao Anan reported it to Shangguan Ning because it had been Shangguan Ning who had asked him to arrange the job. But he did not want Zhao Anan to trouble his wife, so he had to tell her about the assistant.

Zhao Anan got slightly assured after hearing his words.

She knew that Jing Yichen would not leave everything on her or allow her to ruin a prestigious university.

“Haha, I knew that you are the kindest soul. Then… in this case, can I get the assistant to write my speech? I remember that when Principal Min delivered the speech, someone always wrote the content for him. I will have a writer too, right?”

“Maybe in the future, but not tomorrow. You have to write it yourself.”

Zhao Anan’s face sunk. She did not know anything about writing speeches.

“Do you want me to sit with you on your date since you are blocking the door? If you don’t mind, I can take a seat beside you.”

Startled, Zhao Anan moved away and said in a flattering tone, “Master Jing, please.”

She could not possibly allow Jing Yichen to listen into her conversation with Mayor Mo Yu, otherwise he would strike her every word down.

As Jing Yichen was about to leave, Zhao Anan suddenly asked. “Bro, where is Principal Min? Is he expelled?”

“No, he is demoted to the level of a deputy.” Jing Yichen said as he started walking away.

“So I am his leader now?”

Ignoring Zhao Anan, Jing Yichen went and sat down in another elegant room.

Zhao Anan did not mind his attitude, and was starting to get a bit excited. She had disliked Principal Min for a long time and now it was time for her to mess with him.

She and Shangguan Ning had been expelled by that old dude and she was definitely going to take revenge now.

It would be best if she could find some excuse that would humiliate him and get him expelled.

Soon, Zhao Anan forgot about the huge pressure of being the principal, but started to think about how she could use her position to extract revenge.

Jing Yichen knew what she was capable of, so he could not possibly have allowed her to control the school all by herself. Her assistant would surely solve most of her issues and she was just there for show.
