All the girls present started laughing, not caring about their image.
“Aiya, what we mean is we want to go to your ‘University career planning’ class, not what you’re thinking. You’re in a Shari, so you can’t drive fast enough to escape us.”
“Just wait, my class will be back soon.” Lin Yi said with a smile.
“Really? That’s great, we’ll definitely support you.”
“But let’s make it clear first, you have to line up. Only four people can come at a time, otherwise my body won’t be able to take it.”
After getting rid of the girls around him, Lin Yi walked toward the main building.
“Why is this guy back again?”
Behind the crowd, a muscular boy said.
He was nearly two meters tall and weighed at least 200 pounds. Standing there, he looked like a small mountain.
Just as his name suggested, the boy who spoke was Fu Qingshan, the center of the basketball team of the university.
He was tall and strong, and his footsteps were agile. He was a player that struck fear in all of Zhonghai City.
“Exactly. Isn’t he just handsome? Why are all the girls in the school surrounding him? This is ridiculous.”
The guy’s name was Jiang Yajun, and he was the main point guard of the university team.
In the past, the boys on the basketball team were the most popular subject among the girls, but ever since this Lin Yi guy came to school, the popularity of the basketball team had plummeted.
The school forum was filled with his discussion posts, and there was no place for the basketball team anymore.
“Why are you talking to these girls? They’re all shallow people.”
The man who spoke was standing between Fu Qingshan and Jiang Yajun. His name was Zheng Jiarui.
He was very tall and was over 190 cm. He was the main forward of the university. In terms of fame, he was even more popular than Fu Qingshan.
In addition to his extremely good looks, he was a star player in the university. Thus, he was very popular with the girls.
However, after Lin Yi came to the school, his popularity had dropped drastically. He was no longer the Prince Charming in the hearts of the girls.
“We don’t mind. You’re the one who’s affected the most,” said Jiang Yajun.
“Let me tell you, it’s useless to be good-looking if you don’t have any other strong points. Everyone has mysterious fatigue. It Won’t be long before the girls won’t bother with him anymore. Don’t worry,” said Zheng Jiarui.
“Besides, he’s just a member of the school committee. His monthly salary isn’t even enough for me to buy a pair of sneakers. The girls with a little bit of awareness won’t bother with him, so you guys should remain calm.”
Zheng Jiarui patted their shoulders. “Hurry up and go to the training hall. The coach will be angry again soon.”
At the entrance of the main building, Zhao Qi and his secretary, Zhou Genzhe, were waiting, ready to welcome Lin Yi.
When Lin Yi left, Zhao Qi was depressed for quite a while.
Now that he was back, the impact on the school wasn’t as simple as some hot gossip.
“Principal Zhao, since Teacher Lin is back this time, what kind of position should we arrange for him?” Zhou Genzhe asked,
“Do we still want him to go to the school committee?”
“I don’t think that’s a problem. Let’s see what Teacher Lin has in mind first before we prepare a position.
“It’s mainly because Teacher Lin is a person that we can’t figure out. It’s fine if it’s an elective course, but what if he wants to teach the main course? If he doesn’t have some professional knowledge, he really won’t be able to handle it.”
“I don’t think so,” Zhao Qi said,
“I’ve talked to him a few times. Lin Yi is a person who knows his limits. He won’t do anything out of line. But then again, even if he brings up something difficult, we have to try our best to satisfy him. His contributions to the college aren’t something that can be explained in just a few words.”
The two exchanged a few words and looked into the distance. They happened to see a person rushing over, but it wasn’t Lin Yi.
“Hello, Principal Zhao. I didn’t expect you to be here. I’m flattered.”
Zhao Qi and Zhou Genzhe froze when they saw the person standing in front of them. They didn’t know who that person was.
“Principal Zhao, let me introduce myself first. My name is Meng Guangqiang. I’m a newly-hired inorganic chemistry teacher. The HR department has already completed the procedures and said that I still need to report to you, so I came here.”
Meng Guangqiang said politely, “But there was a small incident on the way and it took some time, so I hope you don’t mind.”
“I remember now. The HR department told me about this yesterday. If I remember correctly, your current title should be associate professor, right?”
“Yes, yes, yes. I was just promoted to associate professor last year.”
“Oh?” Meng Guangqiang was overjoyed. He had already completed the entry procedures and came here today to have a simple chat. He didn’t expect the president to personally come out to greet him.
It seemed like he valued him a lot.
If that was the case, it would be easier for him to negotiate his other conditions.
Just then, Lin Yi walked over from the side path and found Zhao Qi and Zhou Genzhe standing there.
Howeverm before Lin Yi could greet them, he heard a cry of surprise.
Lin Yi was a little surprised to see the man speaking.
Wasn’t this the Buick owner who had rear-ended him at the intersection?
Zhao Qi was stunned at Meng Guangqiang’s words.
“You two know each other?”
“Principal Zhao, it’s . He braked at the intersection, causing my car to rear-end him. It took quite a bit of time, or else I would’ve arrived a long time ago.”
Lin Yi pointed at Meng Guangqiang and asked Zhao Qi,
“You don’t deserve to know who I am. Let me tell you...”
Zhao Qi ordered, “Meng Guangqiang, just tell me if you don’t want to work here anymore. I’ll send you to the HR department right now!”
Meng Guangqiang was stunned for a while.
“Principal Zhao, what are you talking about? This matter is between us. Why do you want to fire me?”
“Do you know who the person standing in front of you is?!”
“Isn’t he just a penniless guy who drives a Shari? He’s miles away from me.”
“Nonsense!” Zhao Qi snorted,
“Let me tell you, the person standing in front of you is the vice-principal of the university, Lin Yi! You said he was a penniless guy who drives a Shari, but who do you think you are?!”
“What did you say, Principal Zhao? He’s the vice-principal of the university?”
Meng Guangqiang’s eyes widened, and his eyeballs almost fell out!
How could this guy be named vice-principal at such a young age?
“Principal Zhao, this is a misunderstanding,” Meng Guangqiang explained,
“Besides, you’ve personally come to welcome me, so you probably value me very much. If the university loses me, it’ll be your loss too.”
“I’m welcoming you?” Zhao Qi looked at Meng Guangqiang as if he was looking at a fool.
“Your title is an associate professor, so what right do you have for me to come out personally to welcome you? The reason I’m standing here is to welcome Vice-Principal Lin. It has nothing to do with you!”
