Chapter 1: Defeating the Dean of Education
Indeed, we should share blessings and face difficulties together
Director Wang wouldn't be planning to commit murder, would he? Murder is against the law. Liu Jingting replied in a nonchalant manner, while the little companion standing beside him was already scared to the point of tears
The morning passed quickly, and Mei Chuan and Zhang Youlong were allowed to have lunch due to their good attitude in admitting their mistakes, while Liu Jingting was not permitted to eat lunch
Liu Jingtong smiled and said, "You need not worry about this; I have my own ways to deal with him"
Upon arriving at the playground, the two companions stood obediently in place as punishment. However, Liu Jingting was not one to follow orders so easily; he began to stroll around the playground, contemplating how to deal with that rotund and pompous headmaster.
Liu Jingting furrowed his brow in thought for a moment, then smiled and said: "Well, that's not a problem; this is indeed my new book, but you will have to wait a few years to see it"
"You want to discuss matters with me, yet you haven't even got your act together. If you want to talk, I'll have your parents come over tomorrow." Director Wang, seeing that Liu Jingtian was unyielding, had no choice but to resort to his trump card.
At the end of class, a large group of students surged out of the classroom, rushing to the playground to watch three individuals standing in punishment. Standing in punishment at Hongyue Middle School was originally a common occurrence, but now, with Liu Jingting emerging as a new figure of interest on campus, it was quite a spectacle. However, to their disappointment, Liu Jingting did not exhibit the demeanor of someone being punished at all; instead, he sat alone on the asbestos board beneath the basketball hoop, holding a stone and drawing something.
Meichuan and Zhang Youlong observed their boss, who appeared to be exceptionally composed and confident, and they both displayed expressions of vague admiration. In their eyes, their boss was not an ordinary person
Liu Jingting smiled gently and said, "Today, the cobra is causing us some trouble, probably related to my guidebook."
"You three do not need to attend class this morning; go stand in the playground as punishment. Just get out of here," Director Wang said impatiently, waving his hand.
Are you drawing the king, or rather, are you drawing a cobra
"Boss Liu, I heard you were made to stand as a punishment by Director Wang," several well-meaning classmates asked with a smile
Nowadays, Liu Jingteng's nature has become even more malicious; not only does he openly snatch business, but he also employs the "despicable means" of low-price dumping, resulting in a serious backlog of supplementary textbooks in his store. He feels that his supreme authority in front of the students is facing an unprecedented challenge, how can he endure this
"Director Wang, what matters do you wish to discuss with us?" Liu Jingting asked, looking at the director of education with a calm expression.
"Liu Ge, what are you talking about? We are in business together, and you have not treated us unfairly. The salary you give us is several times more than the pocket money my parents give me. How could we betray you?"
Well, Liu Ge, he is the teacher and we are the students, we...
In two days, everyone will call him that, haha. Liu Jingteng said with satisfaction about his work, and none of the onlooking classmates dared to interject.
Both He and Tu, the two companions, generously expressed their opinions. Liu Jingting found it inappropriate to say anything further. After a moment of contemplation, he said: "In that case, let us speak frankly. If he insists on being persistent, I will write a letter to the education office to report him."
A simple sentence brought the atmosphere at the scene to a freezing point; it was not that the sentence itself held any great power, but rather that the speaker was so unusual. A mere middle school student, when faced with the notoriously strict dean, should have behaved like the two classmates beside him, trembling and silent with fear, rather than remaining calm and composed like Liu Jingting. Even more absurdly, he spoke with such conviction that he turned the tables, becoming the one to teach others a lesson instead of being the one receiving it.
Liu Jingting reviewed "Mang Mang and Ti Ti" and, after confirming there were no errors, pondered for a moment before writing fourteen characters in a blank notebook: "Flying snow connects the heavens, shooting the white deer; laughing, the bookish hero leans on the emerald mandarin duck"
"What is the Eighteen Palms of the Snake?" a classmate asked
"What is the Dog-Beat Stick? Why should we learn it?"
Both parents had not yet returned from work. Liu Jingting first found some food in the pantry to satisfy his hunger, then returned to his room, took out his notebook and ballpoint pen, and pondered in front of the window for about ten minutes before immersing himself in writing fervently
Liu Jingting smiled without speaking, focusing intently on the work at hand. When the classmate who had asked the question stepped forward to take a look, he discovered that Liu was drawing a cobra
Bang! Director Wang slammed the table and pointed at Liu Jingting, shouting angrily: "Are you tired of living, hetushu.com? Do you believe I can ensure you never attain rebirth for eternity?"
Director Wang glanced over the three students in front of him in turn, then his gaze settled on Liu Jingting as he coldly said: "I called you here to eat feces"
Liu Jingting turned around to face everyone and said loudly: "He is a cobra, but I am not afraid of him, because I have the Eighteen Palms of Subduing the Snake"
"What is 'The Legend of the Snake and the Eagle'? Is it another book you have written?"
The other two students lowered their heads in fear of the fierce principal, but Liu Jingting remained unafraid and calmly said, "Principal Wang, as a teacher, your words are somewhat inappropriate, aren't they?"
Liu Jingting and two classmates left the office and headed towards the playground
I have just learned a set of dog-fighting techniques, do you think it's funny or not
Two hours later, a fairy tale titled "Mango and Titi" will officially be released. This story mainly narrates the experiences of the little monkey Mango and the little rabbit Titi as they jointly confront the evil enemy, the cobra. The cobra is naturally modeled after Director Wang. In the article, Liu Jingting employs extensive satire and ridicule against the cobra, and the actions of the cobra in the story are almost a direct reflection of Director Wang's daily deeds, making it quite evident.

Today, Director Wang suddenly caused trouble for the three of them, the reason being self-evident. Three weeks ago, he compiled a set of "The Ultimate Guide for High School Entrance Examination Top Scorers" and sold it to students preparing for the exam at a low price of three yuan. Because this guidebook is both entertaining and informative, it has been well-received by a large number of middle school students and has sold remarkably well, with nearly a thousand copies sold in just half a month
He lost his business, and he must be quite displeased. However, given today's events, he is unlikely to let us off easily.
Director Wang's face turned ashen, glaring at Liu Jingting, unable to utter a word in his anger. Suddenly, he raised his hand, and a book flew directly towards Liu Jingting's face. Liu Jingting tilted his head and dodged the attack. Director Wang snorted, took a step forward, and raised his hand to strike. Liu Jingting stepped back and coldly said, "Director Wang, if you have something to say, please say it. There is no need for such antics, behaving like a petty child. What kind of decorum is this?"
Director Wang has been bullying students for more than a year or two, and his reputation is as bad as it can get. However, out of fear of his harshness, even when students curse him behind his back, they do so lightly. Only Liu Jingting, who is not afraid of death, openly gave him the nickname "Cobra".
Liu Jingting walked around and came before his two companions, saying: "The cobra is inherently a petty person. This time, I confronted him directly; he certainly will not let me off easily. However, you two need not worry. If anything happens, feel free to shift the blame onto me, as this matter is indeed my fault for involving you."
The school bell rang again, and the students hurried back to the classroom. In front of the students who were being punished by standing, everyone inexplicably felt a sense of superiority.
Meichuan and Zhang Youlong looked at their boss, increasingly feeling that he was profound and inscrutable
"Tomorrow, I will ask your parents to come to school" is indeed a timeless classic, one of the essential phrases used by teachers to threaten students.
The hungry student Liu Jingting was unwilling to sit idly by and starve, so he defiantly skipped class and went home
Liu Jingting, whose courtesy name was Mo Rushi, said: "The Dog-Beatting Stick, of course, is used in the manner of beating dogs"
Liu Jingteng was taken aback for a moment, then said: "The Eighteen Dragon-Subduing Palms, haven't you all seen 'The Legend of the Condor Heroes'?"
You two need not worry; I will handle this matter alone. Let us go for a walk in the playground.
Just as Liu Jingteng and his two hired workers, Mei Chuan and Zhang Youlong, were discussing the expansion into other town markets, the director of education suddenly barged in and summoned them to the office
Director Wang has opened a stationery store and often coerces students to purchase items from his shop. On one occasion, he caught a student buying a ballpoint pen from another store and immediately punished the student by forbidding him from having lunch.
"The Legend of the Condor Heroes, the foolish Guo Jing, marrying Huang Rong, the old rascal who laughs and plays, and the gluttonous Hong Qigong who loves to eat roast chicken, haven't you heard of them?" Liu Jingtian asked eagerly, while the onlooking classmates looked utterly bewildered
"Liu Jingteng, I can't believe you just spoke to the cobra like that, that was incredible." After leaving the office, the two colleagues, having shed their initial fear, began to praise Liu Jingteng's audacious behavior.
Liu Jingting watched his classmates retreat like the ebbing tide, and a storm of emotions surged within him. After a moment of daze, he suddenly laughed heartily, causing Mei Chuan and Zhang Youlong to be taken aback. The two of them looked around in confusion as they slowly approached Liu Jingting. Mei Chuan asked, "Liu Ge, what are you laughing at?"
