Chapter 656
Chapter 656: 547, must be fired (asking for monthly ticket) Chapter 656: 547, must be fired (asking for monthly ticket) “Apologizing doesn’t disgrace you.”
“Keeping your job is what matters!”
Tong Bin walked up to Wu Di and whispered words of consolation.
He knew that for doctoral students like Wu Di, securing a teaching position at the university was quite difficult, especially since Jiangcheng University was among the top-ranked 985 universities in the country.
If it had been a few years earlier, the chances of a Jiangcheng University doctoral graduate securing a teaching position at the same university would have been higher.
But in recent years, universities had been competing over the academic qualifications of their teaching staff, usually hiring doctoral graduates from Qingbei or well-known overseas universities, with fewer opportunities for the university’s own doctoral graduates.
Therefore, the opportunity for Wu Di to stay at the university had not come easily.
Moreover, he had just secured his position this year and was still in his probationary period; if the university really wanted to dismiss him, it would not cost them anything.
After listening to Director Tong, Wu Di’s expression grew even more solemn.
He nodded, “Thank you, Director Tong.”
Having said that, Wu Di turned and walked away.
With many students pointing and discussing him, he walked quickly, soon disappearing from everyone’s view.
In the crowd,
Lu Ming, who came to see what was happening, had been paying attention to this Teacher Wu.@@novelbin@@
Before today, he hadn’t known that the other man was also pursuing Wang Bingru.
So now he was quite curious about what would happen to Wu Di in the end.
“Brother Lu, do you think Teacher Wu will be dismissed?”
As Lu Ming stared in the direction where Wu Di had disappeared, his roommate, Fang Yu, suddenly asked.
“How would I know!”
Lu Ming shook his head, obviously unable to guess how the school administration would handle it.
“Unexpected, really!
He’s a teacher, yet he’s still fixated on a female student.
To me, a dismissal would serve him right.”
Fang Yu loved to watch the excitement; he then added with a sigh, “But what shocks me the most is the identity of Wang Bingru’s boyfriend!”
“A billionaire CEO!”
“I really want to ask Mr.
Yang if he could not play the gender card so strictly, I don’t even want to try anymore!”
Lu Ming remained silent, his thoughts still on whether Wu Di would face any troubles.
He had just learned about Yang Hao’s identity, but he wasn’t thinking of giving up.
In his view, a billionaire like Yang Hao wouldn’t have time to frequently accompany Wang Bingru.
Once the cold school beauty felt lonely, his chance would come.
But then another worry came to his mind; it was about the cost of pursuing this cold school beauty.
If Wu Di didn’t receive any punishment, that would reassure him a lot, showing that Mr.
Yang didn’t hold Wang Bingru in high regard.
Conversely, if Wu Di was indeed punished by the university, then Lu Ming would have to reassess the cost of continuing his pursuit of Wang Bingru.
In the administration building,
In the office of Qin Guangfeng,
He had personally brewed a pot of tea for Yang Hao and Wang Bingru, pouring a cup for each of them.
“Mr.
Yang, this is white tea a friend gave me.
It has a very nice taste, please try some.”
After pouring the tea, Qin Guangfeng said with a smile.
“Alright, thank you, Principal Qin.”
Yang Hao courteously expressed his gratitude, then picked up his cup and gently sipped.
The tea indeed tasted quite good, and Yang Hao politely praised it several times.
Wang Bingru sat next to Yang Hao, still somewhat nervous, after all, she was sitting across from the university’s vice principal and the dean of the School of Finance, a man of high rank and authority.
She had only seen Principal Qin twice during meetings, and had it not been for Yang Hao, she, a mere student, would never have received such an enthusiastic reception from Principal Qin.
Thus, Wang Bingru couldn’t help but silently congratulate herself again for siding with the right person.
After chatting enthusiastically with Yang Hao for a while, Qin Guangfeng suddenly shifted the conversation to Wang Bingru, “Bingru, what do you think about Teacher Wu’s issue?”
Wang Bingru had been silently listening to the chat between Yang Hao and Qin Guangfeng, but when suddenly asked for her opinion, she took a moment to think before saying, “Teacher Wu’s behavior has indeed caused me some trouble.”
“He’s a teacher who keeps sending me Weixun messages, and if I consistently don’t reply, it looks bad, but once I reply, he continues to send various messages.
I had been hesitating about reporting this to the school leadership, but now that Principal Qin is aware of the situation, how it’s handled ultimately depends on Principal Qin and the leadership; I trust that the school will provide me with a fair outcome!”
Wang Bingru was quick-thinking, aware that Qin Guangfeng was trying to coax her into revealing whether she harbored thoughts of escalating the issue.
But Wang Bingru just passed the ball back, trusting in the school to deliver a fair outcome.
But what if she finds the outcome unfair?
Wang Bingru didn’t elaborate on that, but Qin Guangfeng’s gaze involuntarily fell on Yang Hao, who was a big name in the entertainment and media industry.
If he decided to blow the whistle, it would become national news in minutes, and one could imagine how damaging that could be to the school’s reputation.
“I’ll report this to Principal Li shortly, and we’ll likely have a resolution by tomorrow’s meeting.”
“Our school has always been uncompromising in dealing with such matters.
I’ve seen the messages Teacher Wu sent you; although they are mere greetings, they indeed caused you harassment.
My suggestion is dismissal—I’ll bring it up at the meeting tomorrow!”
Qin Guangfeng clearly stated his stance, then looked towards Yang Hao and asked, “Mr.
Yang, what do you think about handling it this way?”
Evidently, Qin Guangfeng wanted to curry favor with Yang Hao through this incident.
Look, I’ve fired the person for just a slight grievance to your girlfriend!
How could Yang Hao not understand Qin Guangfeng’s thoughts?
He smiled and nodded, “I believe such a harmful character should not continue in the teaching faculty.”
“This time, he targeted Bingru and did not succeed.
But what about next time?
Might he harass other girls?”
“Moreover, Teacher Wu’s behavior is somewhat extreme – Bingru isn’t even his girlfriend, just a romantic interest, yet see how agitated he became…”
From Yang Hao’s perspective, it was naturally best to nip potential troubles in the bud.
Wang Bingru was only in her first year of graduate studies and would be at Jiangcheng University for three more years.
If Wu Di continued to teach at the school, who knew what he might do out of desperation in the next three years.
“Yes, Mr.
Yang is right.”
“Keeping such a person in our Jiangcheng University teaching staff is ultimately a risk.”
Qin Guangfeng nodded in agreement and again committed, “I will give my all in tomorrow’s meeting.”
“However, Wu Di’s doctoral supervisor is also a vice-principal at our school, who will likely protect his student, so I can’t guarantee the outcome.”
Yang Hao nodded understandingly.
In an institution like Jiangcheng University, it was normal for factions to exist within.
Since Qin Guangfeng put it that way, it indicated that Wu Di’s supervisor must also hold significant sway at the school.
After a moment of contemplation, Yang Hao suddenly asked, “There must be many financially disadvantaged students at Jiangcheng University as well?”
“Er, certainly.”
“There are indeed many impoverished students at the school.”
The turn Yang Hao took was quite sharp, causing Qin Guangfeng to pause for a moment.
He then responded, though his eyes were filled with puzzlement, unsure why Yang Hao had suddenly brought this up.
But Yang Hao quickly provided an answer, “I established a scholarship foundation at my alma mater, the School of Finance and Economics; the support was originally only for students from that school.
Since there are also many needy students at Jiangcheng University, let’s include them in the support range as well!”
“Really?”
Qin Guangfeng was initially shocked, then a bright smile appeared on his face, “Mr.
Yang is truly a role model among entrepreneurs!”
“Let me thank Mr.
Yang on behalf of the financially needy students at Jiangcheng University!”
“Although the government does provide some subsidies to financially needy students, the total amount is limited, and the money each person receives isn’t much.
If they have Mr.
Yang’s support, their lives should improve significantly.”
What do you think?
