Li Yue couldn’t help but jump to her feet after hearing the director’s words.
“Yes, Director! She did sound a little cold, but her lecture was very detailed and precise. My brother and I genuinely thought that she was a teacher. Her classmates seemed to look up to her, too. They even addressed her as Sister Tang.”
Finally, the director was able to confirm who that brilliant person was.
When he heard about the students calling her “Sister Tang”, however, he had to press his lips together and shake his head.
Wasn’t that just too much reverence for someone so young?
He would definitely have a word with Teacher Xi?later.
For now, he was just glad that the matter was settled, and he could rest assured that Li Yue?had not come to their school by mistake.
“Director, what do you think about enrolling my younger brother in this specific class? We’re more than willing to pay the tuition fee for an entire grading period, along with other necessary expenses. We can be flexible with the price, as long as Li Chen?gets to study in your school.”
Li Yue looked the director in the eye as she said this.
Even though the teachers in City A?No. 1 High School?were excellent, she knew that this didn’t necessarily translate to the student body’s performance as a whole.
Brilliant students were likely to come from the top classes, the cream of the crop, so to speak.
And given her brother’s overall grades, he didn’t have much of a chance to enter these elite classes at all. On top of that, was enrolling as a temporary transfer student.
They couldn’t very well expect the school administration to make significant concessions for someone like him.
......
The director leaned back against his chair, his chest tightening with a new wave of unease.
It would have been fine if it were any other class.
But Class 20… Those kids were a rowdy bunch who recognized no rules. There was no telling what might happen to an unsuspecting transfer student.
Sure, they might have improved their grades in the last few months, but it was exactly their unpredictable streak that worried the director.
It was difficult enough for a transfer student to blend into an ordinary class, but Class 20? Ha!
And then there was the matter of Principal Kong.
The headmaster had always paid special attention to Class 20. The director had no idea whether the man would even allow another transfer student into a class, and a temporary one at that.
But the most troublesome of all was Li Yue’s preconceived notions about their faculty staff. She presumed that?Yao Tang’s brilliance was due to her excellent teachers, but that wasn’t the case at all.
The director knew the truth—Yao Tang was simply on another level.
Li Yue watched the complicated emotions play on the director’s face and misunderstood the reason behind them.
“Would it be difficult to arrange, Director? How about this, then? I will ask my younger brother to transfer to your school for good. Just say the word, and we will go through all the necessary procedures.”
Her tone turned pleading when she added, “I know that this request puts you in a tight spot. We can settle for a temporary transfer first. Any class would do. After the initial exams, if Li Chen’s grades are satisfactory, we can transfer him to the elite class then.
“What do you think? If he doesn’t qualify, then we will pull him out of your school without complaints. We just want you to give him a chance.”
She had started giving up on her brother’s Mathematics skills after years of trying.
Now that they had found some hope for him to improve, she refused to let go of the opportunity, or she just might regret it for the rest of her life.
The director pressed his lips together, and a wry expression came over his face. It wasn’t that he didn’t want to take Li Chen?in.
Truly, if it had been any other class, he would have just called the form teacher into the office and settled the arrangements.
But since it was Class 20…
Those rascals were the embodiment of the moniker, “living ancestors”.
“Miss Li,” he sighed. “I’m afraid I cannot decide on this so easily. You may be unaware, but the circumstances of the class that you are requesting are… special. It’s different from the rest of the grade.”
Li Yue nodded sincerely.
“I understand your concerns, Director. I already expected this much. Of course, that class would be special. After all, it’s the top class in the grade, right? You don’t have to worry.”
Once again, the director found himself in a quandary. No matter how hard he tried to explain the situation, it seemed like Li Yue?kept missing his point.
