The Mysterious Heiress: Researcher In Disguise Novel - Chapter 586
Chapter 586: Transfer – 4
The reason the parents admitted their kids into No.1 High School was that they believed in the teachers of No.1 High School. However, it now seemed to them that Hang Yuan’s teachers were much better.
They just did not want to leave because they were afraid that changing the area and environment would influence their children’s studies.
As long as Professor He and the others were willing to give them extra classes, they were going to stay in No.1 High School.
When they saw Li Nanli, their hearts skipped a beat as a bad hunch began to rise from their stomach pits.
It occurred to them that today was not the best day to come to No.1 High School.
The man standing at the front of the group shrunk back a little. “Transferring schools is not our ultimate goal either… Principal Ouyang, we hope that you can understand that we’re all doing this for our children.”
Nope. Ouyang Feng could not understand them at all. He did not want to waste time with them anymore, so he said, “Ever since the establishment of No.1 High School, this is the first time that parents have taken the lead and made a nonsensical and unreasonable demand. You want us to understand you, but who’ll understand us, huh?”
The man looked at Ouyang Feng before turning to Li Nanli and gulped nervously.
He wanted to leave right now, but his feet were cemented on the ground.
If he had known that Li Nanli was here, he would definitely come to No.1 High School today.
The group of parents stayed behind the man’s back, and they did not know what to do either.
Just when both sides were locked in an impasse, Qian Wenrui showed up.
She pushed the door open and walked up to Ouyang Feng, “Mr. Ouyang, there is another group of parents outside of the gate. What should we do now?”
As she was talking, she kept darting glances at Fu Zhi with a smug playing on her lips.
If Class 1 and Class 2 could not attend He Ming’s extra classes, she was not going to let Class 21 hogged He Ming’s extra classes as well.
Then, all of them heard the commotion from the gate as the group of parents marched into the school compound.
Ouyang Feng looked at them with a frown.
Fu Zhi, who was playing her games beside him, raised her head and swept her glance across the group of people in front of her.
“Since you guys are here, I’ll say this again. He Ming and the others will not give your kids any extra classes.”
Her eyes were filled with ice as she emphasized on every syllable that escaped from her lips. “Besides, the school is the place to teach and educate people, everyone pays the same amount of tuition each year. Why should the resources of students with good grades be better than the resources of students with poor learning? Did you guys pay the school more money? Or did you guys have some under-the-table deals with the teachers?”
The expressions of the parents changed when they heard what Fu Zhi had said.
“Don’t you dare make things up! We didn’t bribe the teachers!”
“My son and daughter deserve a good education if they do well in school!”
Ouyang Feng then added, reminding them for the one last time, “There’s some financial problem with Hang Yuan High School, and I’m not sure are you guys aware of this or not, but our school is the one that emerged victorious from the exchange meeting this time. I hope that you all can reconsider your decision and don’t get swayed by your emotions. It’s better to choose the right teaching style and environment for your child and never make any decision that you will regret for the rest of your life.”
“Cut the crap. We want a solution, not some useless lip service.”
“I think we shouldn’t waste our time here,” Mu Chenxi’s assistant said, “All No.1 High School cares about is Fu Zhi. They don’t care about other students at all. In order to improve Fu Zhi’s performance, they will only invest more in Class 21. Since the school doesn’t have the intention of keeping our kids, let’s just change to a better place.”
Li Nanli sat beside Fu Zhi and there was a calm expression on his face.
When he heard what the assistant of Mu Chenxi had said, he let out a scoff and took a photo of the crowd with his phone.
Mu Chenxi’s assistant’s face changed and he hissed, “What are you doing?!”
“Just taking down evidence. Don’t worry, I’ll delete the photo after everything is done. I have all of your faces in my phone, so what we’re going to do next is that we’ll check through every single one of you and make sure that your kids don’t stay in our school.”
Everyone was stunned.
“You’re expelling our kids?”
“Nope. We’re just agreeing to your transfer,” Liu Mi answered, “However, we’ll make it very clear for you guys. Ms. Fu has told you about Hang Yuan’s situation. Once your kids step out of No.1 High School, we won’t accept them anymore if anything happens in the future.”
For a moment, everyone fell silent. Honestly, nobody seemed to have expected that Li Nanli would actually give up on those good students.
The school board members’ faces changed.
Once those good students left No.1 High School, it would greatly affect their enrollment rate, and if that happened, they might not be able to get as much bonus from No.1 High School as they used to have before.
When that thought appeared in their minds, they all looked resentfully at Li Nanli.
The parents were not happy as well.
They were filled with a sense of achievement when those school board members and teachers tried to persuade them to stay. However, they all felt something was missing when Li Nanli asked them to leave.
Besides, after knowing that the students from Hang Yuan failed to emerge victorious in the exchange meeting, they needed to reconsider their decision. They had to think about whether the education style of a good school and their own environment didn’t quite match the education style their children needed.
They only came here and demanded an explanation from No.1 High School because they were incited by someone.
“How can No.1 High School do this to us?” A parent expressed his anger at No.1 High School for refusing to put aside their pride to keep him.
Liu Mi paid him no mind. He made a call to the security room and said, “All parents, please exit the office in an orderly manner. We’ll stamp your transfer requests one at a time. Don’t worry, we won’t leave anyone behind.”
The group of parents was stunned.
Honestly, they did not want to leave No.1 High School that much. They all thought that as long as they gave No.1 High School some pressure, they would give in and agree to their demand.
Very soon, the security guards arrived.
After the group of parents left, the school board members turned their heads and looked at Li Nanli and Fu Zhi.
They could not question Li Nanli, so they could only direct their anger at Fu Zhi.
“It seems to me that you’re calm, Ms. Fu. Did you not realize what’s happening to No.1 High School?” A school board member sneered.
Li Nanli lifted his head and looked at him, “As a school board member, not only do you fail to come up with an emergency plan to solve the problem, but you’re putting blame on a student? I think you should quit your job.”
The school board member was stunned. The rest of the members kept giving him signals with their eyes. After all, Li Nanli’s expression was dark, and nothing would end up well for them to speak up right now.
In the meantime, Liu Mi was helping the group of parents to finalize the transfer procedure. Although they did not want this to happen, there was nothing they could do right now.
One of them took a deep breath and said to FuZhi, “Ms. Fu, although you said that the Wu Family is facing a financial crisis right now, the province needs to evaluate the average score of each school for this final examination. Once our school’s overall performance declined and fell out of the top three in the province, we might lose the title of being the key school in our province.”
“That’s right. Ms. Fu, your grades are good and we understand that you’re helping the students in Class 21 with their studies right now. In the past, we still had the students from Class 1 and Class 2 to bump up the average grade of No.1 High School. However, right now… Can Ms. Fu gives us an accurate answer as to what kind of results the Class 21 students can achieve in this exam?”
“Don’t worry,” Fu Zhi replied calmly, “I already said that the average grade of Class 21 will be higher than that of Class 1 in this examination. At the same time, Class 1 will have to keep their promise and apologize to our classmates and teachers when the final result comes out.”
Although she sounded confident, none of the school board members believed in her.
It was indeed a pipe dream to have Class 21 beat Class 1. The final examination was just a few days away, and the school could not afford the slightest slip-up.
“Don’t worry. The Li Corporation will make it up to any economic losses suffered by the school,’ Li Nanli chimed in.
The expressions of the school board members turned better after they heard what Li Nanli had said.
They were not educators. They were businessmen, and as businessmen, they only cared about profit.
Fu Zhi got up from the chair, and she was not in a good mood after everything that happened this morning.
Li Nanli noticed her bad mood. However, since a lot of people were watching them right now, he just patted his head. Then, he asked, “Where are you going tonight?”
“About that…”
Initially, Fu Zhi wanted to go home to play her games, but after listening to Li Nanli’s promise to the school board members, she felt that she had to do something to make it up for him as well. After all, he was her boyfriend, and she did not want him to waste his money. Therefore, she said, “I think I’ll be giving my friends a tutorial session.”
—
There were too many students leaving No.1 High School. The office was flooded with people, and all the teachers were helping the parents to go through the documents.
There were a lot of discussions going on in Class 21.
“I heard that those parents and students keep pressing on and putting pressure on our school board members. However, President Li paid them no mind and kicked all of them out of the school!”
“Honestly, I didn’t expect President Li to come here at all. After all, he should be very busy, right?”
“What was the reason for his last visit?”
“To come to see Sister Zhi?”
“Why? Are they a couple?”
“I don’t think so. I’m guessing that President Li just doesn’t want to lose an excellent student like Sister Zhi.”
In the meantime, Wang Yu and Fatty were standing on the podium, filling everyone in on what happened today.
Wang Yu threw himself into Fatty’s embrace and touched his face. Then, he looked at him affectionately and said, “President Li…”
“Woman, you’ve managed to get my attention,” Fatty said as he lifted Wang Yu’s chin, “I’ll give you three minutes. Tell me your name!”
“I’m Fu Zhi.”
“Alright, then! From today onward, you’ll be my wife!”
The students below the podium did not know what to say. One of them then raised his hand and asked, “So for the final examination, we not only have to compete with the students of Class 1 but also with the good students of other schools?”
“I think so, but don’t worry about that. I’m sure we’ll be fine,” Song Fang chimed in, “Sister Zhi told me to tell you guys to stay back after the school ends.”
“Why?”
“She said there will be a tutorial session.”
“Who will be teaching, then? Mr. Ma?”
“Nope,” Song Fang said, “Sister Zhi said she’s going to teach us this time.”
