Back to the 70s: My Childhood Sweetheart Spoils Me Rotten-Chapter 883 - 885: Visiting in Person

The weather is nice today, and it’s the start of a new school term.

This is what the principals of First High School and Fourth Middle School are thinking. For them, the recently ended junior and college entrance exams are already in the past.

Regardless of whether they produced the top students in the college entrance exams, they must work hard for the new term, striving to produce a top student next year.

"Fortunately, the top student for the college entrance exams in two years is already promised to us." This is the thought that crosses both principals’ minds at the same time.

Just as the principal of First High School was happily considering striving for a national top spot in the college entrance exams, someone barged into the office without knocking.

When Chu Jianbo saw that it was Feng Xueyan, he was a bit displeased. Although she had mentored a student like Gong Ruini, was her excellent performance really related to Feng Xueyan?

Before Chu Jianbo could lose his temper, "It’s bad, Gong Ruini, Zhao Guangran, and Cao Na have already transferred schools." Feng Xueyan, panting, managed to get the news out before Chu Jianbo could react.

What, Gong Ruini and the others have transferred? How could they have transferred? "Did they come to complete the procedures?"

Feng Xueyan shook her head, "Their student records were transferred today."

If at first, Feng Xueyan didn’t understand why they transferred at this time, she realized along the way—it was because of their previous inaction.

"Ah, transferred today?" Chu Jianbo was dumbfounded. "They didn’t come in person?"

Not possible, they can’t just walk away like that. If it were just about their grades, Chu Jianbo wouldn’t be so agitated. But in the past two months, they hadn’t stopped boasting about Gong Ruini for a moment.

It could be said that all the high schools in the city knew about this genius named Gong Ruini. If they suddenly heard that Gong Ruini had transferred, what would the others think?

Thinking about the peers around him, Chu Jianbo felt it was a bitter fate, "How could they have transferred?"

"How come you, as the class teacher, didn’t look into this?"

Right, he’s just a principal. He has many matters to attend to and can’t watch over Gong Ruini and the others all the time. But the same couldn’t be said for Feng Xueyan, who was the class teacher.

Being a class teacher and not knowing that a student in the class was transferring is a major oversight.

No, it’s not just an oversight but a work negligence, "You should know how important Gong Ruini is to the school."

Feng Xueyan was really about to cry. She certainly knew the importance; otherwise, she wouldn’t have rushed to the principal at the first sign of this news, hoping to slightly lessen her responsibility.

But currently, it seemed that the effect was minimal, especially with Chu Jianbo continuously lecturing her.

Feng Xueyan became a little displeased. Is this situation entirely her fault?

Feng Xueyan thought of what her old classmate told her last time, feeling tempted. She hadn’t considered this before; she thought of staying at First High School, seeing the hope of promotion.

But now, where was there any hope of promotion? It’s fortunate if she isn’t harshly criticized at the staff meeting.

"When they stirred up trouble and insisted on talking about Gong Ruini, I suggested educating those students, but there was opposition."

"If those rumors hadn’t spread so rampantly, why would they have been willing to transfer?"

Right, if it were her hearing that her child was getting bullied to such an extent at school, who would sit still? They would definitely seek an explanation from the school authorities and not just let it be brushed aside.

But how did the school handle it? "Gong Ruini’s aunt is Wan Qiweng, and you know who her grandfather is, right?"

"Not to mention her dad and uncles are businessmen, with such good grades, how could they worry about not getting accepted elsewhere?"

The wealthier the family, the more they care about these things. They simply didn’t get involved in this matter and waited for the school to handle it.

Exactly, when Gong Ruini’s father came to the school, "Last time when things got so intense, Gong Ruini’s father came to the school, and you stepped in to handle it. What was the outcome?"

If Chu Jianbo had handled it properly back then, Feng Xueyan garantied that Gong Ruini wouldn’t have transferred schools.

Is she accusing him? Chu Jianbo felt all sorts of bad emotions, and hearing even his subordinates dare to lecture him, he felt utterly embarrassed as a leader.

Even if he parted on bad terms with Gong Ruini’s father back then, did he say anything wrong? "If it’s your negligence, it’s your responsibility."

"Do you think you can just shirk it off like this?"

"Your attitude is quite wrong. You shouldn’t be the class teacher of Class One." Chu Jianbo didn’t believe that he couldn’t get Feng Xueyan under control—otherwise, would everyone rely on their old qualifications to act out, leaving no room for him to speak?

Not being the class teacher, huh, is that all you’ve got? Feng Xueyan wasn’t worried, and given this situation, she felt no regrets at all.

Feng Xueyan turned and left; since she wasn’t the class teacher, she didn’t need to stay there.

Chu Jianbo looked at his empty office and swept the papers and pen off his desk in frustration.

How could this happen? No, he couldn’t just let them leave like that.

Chu Jianbo thought about it and decided to visit Gong Ruini’s home, at least to try to change their minds.

"It’s just about lowering oneself, right? Once they’re back, see how I’ll educate them." Chu Jianbo prided himself on being adaptable and didn’t feel it was beneath him to plead with them at this moment.

He just waited for another opportunity to reclaim his dignity later on.

Chu Jianbo used the contact information from the files registered by Gong Ruini and others to find their place.

Standing at the gate, Chu Jianbo was genuinely stunned. Although he knew from the files that Gong Ruini lived in a courtyard house, in this day and age, there were countless people living in such places, many of which housed multiple families in one courtyard.

He had seen countless of those kinds of courtyards, but seeing this particular courtyard shocked him into realizing he’d assumed wrong before.

"Could it be true that Gong Ruini isn’t someone easy to mess with?" Now Chu Jianbo genuinely regretted it. Even though he’d heard before that Wan Qiweng was Gong Ruini’s aunt, he hadn’t thought much of it.

There are countless nephews and nieces for an aunt, so why care? But if a niece comes from a wealthy family, of course, everyone would take notice.

Under Ge Yunkui’s lead, as Chu Jianbo walked inside, he was truly overwhelmed. He couldn’t help but murmur, "Is this a regular family? Who has such a large, well-maintained courtyard?"

Previously, he felt a bit proud of living in an apartment, but after seeing this beautifully restored courtyard, he was in awe.

He finally understood why some people would rather live in courtyards than apartments. It was a completely different kind of beauty.

Ge Yunkui, hearing the sounds of gasps coming from behind, lowered his assessment even further.

When he opened the door earlier, he carried a slightly arrogant attitude, though he tried to hide it. However, Ge Yunkui, having followed Zhuge Zhi, had met countless people; even if some were good at concealing it, there was always something that would betray them. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶

Ge Yunkui couldn’t understand how a prestigious school like First High School could have such an incompetent principal. It seemed that the quality of education could only go downhill from here.
