Tang Lin felt that he had been quite sincere in his approach. As an outstanding teacher, he had offered a way out. He believed Rong Qi would take it.
However…
“Oh,” Rong Qi replied curtly, with a mere single word.
Tang Lin, perceiving Rong Qi’s demeanor, knew she was rejecting his offer. His expression slightly clouded, he said, “Rong Qi, I am genuinely inviting you to return to Class 1. Will you consider it?”
Anticipating another refusal, Tang Lin quickly added, “Class 1 has the best educational resources in the entire university, and the atmosphere is highly conducive to learning. You’re remarkably gifted; your future is boundless. Class 1 is the perfect fit for you. A mixed bag like Class 7 will only corrupt you. For the sake of your future, Class 1 is the best choice.”
Hearing that, Rong Qi simply shook her head. A faint smile played at the corners of her lips. “Mr. Tang, your bias isn’t just against me—it’s against every underachieving student in the world. Class 7 may have been academically lacking in the past, but that doesn’t mean they are worthless.
“Have you ever experienced the unity in Class 7? Have you ever felt the harmonious atmosphere there? You haven’t, because all you care about are grades. You judge a person’s worth and future based solely on their academic performance.
“But what I want to tell you is that when it comes to grades, Class 7 may not necessarily lose. And in other aspects, Class 7 is hardly inferior. So, I’m sorry. Class 1 has never been in my consideration.”
Having said that, Rong Qi turned and left, leaving Tang Lin standing there, his expression darkening as he was unable to shake the feeling that she had deemed him undeserving of her respect.
After a while, Tang Lin reluctantly turned away, his face a shade of gloom.
Back in her classroom, Rong Qi was instantly surrounded by her classmates.
“Rong Qi! Is it true? Did you really invite the legendary Ding Ding to teach us?”
Rong Qi remained composed. “Yes. Is there a problem?”
“No, thank you! You’re the best! When can we meet Ding Ding? Should we hold a meet-and-greet?”
Before Rong Qi could respond, someone else chimed in, “Are you kidding? Of course not! Have you ever seen a hacker show their face in public?”
“Right, I guess…” they said, their faces falling momentarily before quickly recovering. “It doesn’t matter. Just knowing he’s willing to teach us is more than enough. Ding Ding will forever be my hero. He’ll be the best teacher I’ve ever had!”
Rong Qi pressed her lips together but said nothing.
Outside the gates of the Capital University, Rong Feiyu was expelled from the university and left crying uncontrollably. She hailed a cab to take her back home.
“Mom! Mom…!”
As soon as Rong Feiyu got out of the cab, she covered her mouth and ran towards the villa.
Hearing Rong Feiyu’s cry, Wang Qing rushed out to see what was the matter. Spotting Rong Feiyu covered in grime and exuding a foul smell, Wang Qing hesitated for a moment.
Regardless, Rong Feiyu threw herself into her mother’s arms, sobbing uncontrollably. “Mom, I’ve been expelled. I’ve been kicked out of the university!”
“What?” Wang Qing was too shocked to speak. Regaining her composure, she demanded, “What happened? Tell me everything, and I’ll find a way to fix it.” Still sobbing, Rong Feiyu recounted the entire episode in meticulous detail.
The angrier Wang Qing became as she listened, finally erupting in rage. “Su Yifan, that incompetent fool who can neither achieve nor ruin things! I won’t let him get away with this! Come, Feiyu, let’s go inside and get you changed..”
