Chapter 008: Handsome Guy, You Scoundrel
In response to Wang Jiao's praise, Cang Long merely nodded. The administrative office is on the fourth floor. By the time they climbed up, Wang Jiao was already out of breath: "These damn stairs. I told you, what are you doing at the administrative office? So what if we're late? There's no need to report in; we could just go straight to the classroom. Anyway, before that fake foreigner takes attendance, no one knows if we are late. Ah, this is really exhausting."
Canglong did not express an opinion. Upon arriving at the teaching building, Canglong said: "I need to go to the administration office first; just tell me where it is, and you can head to the classroom first"
However, he did not anticipate that his preparations would lead to entirely different perspectives, such as those held by this student.
Alright, I will take you to the administrative office. You may not be aware, but the school leaders are quite anxious. You need to be careful, as the leaders from the education bureau have expressed some concerns. This opening ceremony is being presided over by city officials, and now that the city officials have left, so...
It must be said that after putting on her school uniform, Wang Jiao still could not conceal the fiery aura she exuded. Moreover, her carefree nature seemed to have made her forget the things she had done at the airport, and she enthusiastically began to introduce the happenings at No. 1 High School to Cang Long
Upon seeing the sign of the Academic Affairs Office, Cang Long knocked on the door and then opened it. Inside, he saw more than ten teachers seated, seemingly in a meeting, each displaying different expressions, with the majority appearing anxious, as if waiting for something.
After speaking, she quietly said to Canglong: "I told you that if you have nothing to do after eating, you should check the time before reporting. That fake foreigner definitely hasn't arrived yet, and the school leaders are in a bad mood. If you report now and say you're late, isn't that just asking for trouble? Just watch my expression later and make a quick exit."
Wang Jiao's heart began to race, thinking to herself how she had encountered such a cowardly person. Did he not see the sign of the headmaster in front of that bald head? As the headmaster approached in anger, Wang Jiao lost her composure, yet she did not leave; instead, she wore an expression of resignation.
As she spoke, Wang Jiao continued to gesture, then mimicked an elderly person with a cane and took a few steps. However, Cang Long remained calm, merely responding with a faint "mm".
"Did you not see the sign at the entrance? Which class are you from? Why are you not staying properly in the classroom and coming to the administrative office? Do you not know there is a meeting going on?" a bald middle-aged man exclaimed angrily
If it were not for the scent of this perfume, it is likely that Canglong would have had some difficulty recognizing it
However, the not-so-long wait made the balding middle-aged man somewhat irritated. Looking at Canglong, he found him extremely bothersome and said, "Do you have any other business? Why aren't you returning to the teacher? Do you need me to escort you back?"
Everyone's gaze was fixed on Canglong, filled with confusion, curiosity, and bewilderment. However, no one believed that Canglong was the specially appointed teacher, as he was simply too young, to the point of being almost unbelievable. At least, that was the impression he gave them at first glance
"If you scare away our specially appointed teacher, will you take over Class 9?" A calm and gentle voice came through
After the guard checked her student ID, Wang Jiao was allowed to enter. Before Cang Long could speak, the guard beside him said: "You are from Class 9 of the third year? You arrived just in time; he is your class..."
"It's nothing, anyway our fake foreign teacher hasn't arrived yet. I heard that he has driven the school leaders and the education bureau leaders crazy over this matter. This guy is really something," Wang Jiao said with a smile. "By the way, why did you go to the administration office? Do you have relatives who are school leaders?"
There is a kind of! '' Wang Jiao gave a thumbs up, seemingly convinced of something, `` Look at your suit, your leather shoes, and the Patek Philippe on your left wrist. Isn't that wealth? You were dressed too formally at the airport; I thought you were a successful person. Now that I see you at school, it feels completely different. Although your appearance shows some signs of weariness, your age can only tell me that you are a second-generation rich kid, but a very refined and bookish one. The weariness must be put on, right? Indeed, nowadays, young girls prefer stable men. By the way, my name is Wang Jiao. ''
The guard looked at Canglong with a strange expression, unsure of what to say
Only the guard stood there in a daze, scratching his head: "Student? Homeroom teacher? What is going on here!"
"What is this? I'll take him, no need to trouble you, we have known each other for a long time!" Wang Jiao enthusiastically held Cang Long's hand and walked towards the campus.
Hmm! The Azure Dragon nodded, and then instructed another guard, pointing ahead, telling him to move forward
At the entrance of the school, Cang Long briefly spoke to the guard, expressing his purpose for coming. However, he did not expect the young guard to scrutinize him with a few glances, and then, in disbelief and surprise, said: "You are the specially appointed teacher? So young!"
Yes, I just arrived. I apologize for keeping everyone waiting!" said Canglong with a calm expression.
However, according to French taste, Canglong's attire can only be described as simple and casual, lacking any extravagance. This also gives him the best impression, leading people to believe that he is a returnee deeply influenced by French culture
As she spoke, she turned and left, but after taking a few steps, she looked back and found that Cang Long was still standing at the entrance of the administrative office. She thought to herself, is this guy out of his mind? He wants to confront the school leaders on his first day here?
Are you also a student of Class 9 in the third year of high school?" Wang Jiao said while taking out her student ID to show another security guard, "I am also a student of Class 9 in the third year of high school. It's my first day reporting, and I sincerely apologize for what happened this morning!
At this moment, she was not heavily made up; her school uniform added a touch of natural freshness to her appearance. However, the scent of her perfume remained as usual. A faint smile adorned her face as she cast an extremely apologetic and awkward glance at the returning Canglong.
No, no, it's mainly because you are too young, at least you look too young. Where is your ancestral home? You clearly seem to be a knowledgeable person!" the guard said half-jokingly.
"You still haven't told me your name, have you?" In response to Canglong's indifferent reply, Wang Jiao felt somewhat dissatisfied.
You will know soon!" said Canglong with a smile
But at that moment, a voice came from behind, slightly surprised: "Ah, it's you! You are also a student of this school!"
Oh my God, you don't even know what a fake foreigner is?" Wang Jiao suddenly looked at Cang Long with a strange expression, "A fake foreigner is a Chinese person who has returned from abroad, speaking with a foreign accent. I really don't understand how the education bureau has so much spare money. It is said that our class's homeroom teacher seems to have a doctor's degree, probably looking like an old man with reading glasses, white hair, and walking with a hunch and a limp.
Yes, I am the so-called fake foreigner you mentioned. My name is Canglong. I reported for duty today, but I encountered some unexpected circumstances on the way, which caused my delay. I hope everyone can understand
I know, he is from our class. Don't worry, I will take him to Class Nine. I am very familiar with No. 1 High School!" Wang Jiao said with a smile as she walked over, seemingly trying to make up for the trouble she caused Cang Long this morning, which made her appear particularly enthusiastic
"No, I am going to report in and, by the way, meet that fake foreigner you mentioned. He may have already arrived. Also, how did you conclude that I am a wealthy person?" said Cang Long calmly
The guard was about to say something, but Canglong interjected, "In that case, let her take me there!"
When the Azure Dragon arrived at the First Middle School, the opening ceremony had already concluded
Oh, we understand, we understand! Wang Jiao seems quite adept at handling such situations, effortlessly taking over the conversation, "Let's go, we should return to self-study!"
Cang Long appears to be only around twenty-five or twenty-six years old, yet he carries the title of a doctor's degree. His arrival has long been known at the First High School, with a doctorate from the École Normale Supérieure in Paris. Some people and even certain publications had imagined him to be an elderly man with gray hair and reading glasses.
Is there a problem? asked Cang Long calmly
However, Wang Jiao appeared somewhat dazed: "I must say, you are truly handsome, and there is a deep, solid quality that emanates from your very essence!"
Hmm. Cang Long nodded slightly; Wang Jiao was quite observant, but her observations were limited to the items on Cang Long that she considered luxuries. Aside from the Patek Philippe watch, which he always wore, the other items were not prepared by him. Moreover, in previous missions, Cang Long would not dress so conspicuously.
I used to come here often to play, so of course I understand. Although I was a student at No. 5 Middle School before, I will be a student at No. 1 Middle School from now on, proudly part of Class 9 in the third year, proudly part of the educational reform! We have all become the white mice under the spring breeze!" Wang Jiao said with a smile, exuding a vibrant youthful energy, but the latter part of her statement carried a hint of sarcasm.
Can you take me to the administrative office? The Azure Dragon did not answer his question
However, Cang Long ignored her and strode towards the administrative office. Behind him, Wang Jiao shouted, "Hey, you can't be so ungrateful. Wait for me, I will go with you. Hey, handsome, wait... you jerk!"
Thus, she kindly walked over, smiling at the teacher inside, thinking to herself that she had risked her life for him this time. She tugged at Canglong's sleeve, constantly signaling with her eyes, but Canglong completely ignored her.
"May I ask, is this the Office of Academic Affairs?" Cang Long inquired
I brought it up myself... The director of education did not realize the meaning behind the principal's words. Just as he was about to respond, his expression changed, and his hand, suspended in the air, looked at Cang Long with disbelief. "You... you mean he is that fake foreigner who returned from France!"
Ah, by the way, you haven't told me if your family has relatives at the school yet?" Wang Jiao seemed quite concerned about this, and while speaking, she was also sizing up Cang Long, "At first glance, your family looks very wealthy; you must be a second-generation rich kid.
The homeroom teacher said, "If you don't come, study by yourselves. Who allowed you to leave the classroom? Hurry back!" That bald-headed middle-aged man continued, his tone even more explosive
Apart from the principal, all the teachers in the administration office were left dumbfounded, especially the director of education, while Wang Jiao, standing beside Cang Long, felt her mind swirling with chaos.
However, after the director of education finished speaking, he realized that he had misspoken. Words once spoken are like water spilled; they cannot be taken back, especially since his hand was still suspended in the air, just as he was about to slap down.
There is no need for that; I think it is better for me to report in first
Cang Long glanced over; it was an elderly man, wearing reading glasses, yet appearing quite spirited. In front of him was a sign indicating his position as principal.
The sound caused Canglong to instinctively turn his head, and then he saw a familiar face. She was wearing a black casual suit on top and a lace short skirt on the bottom, with her hair tied in a ponytail. Her graceful figure was impossible to conceal, and the familiar and strong scent of perfume wafted towards him once again. Wasn't this the same Wang Jiao who had played a trick on him at the airport?
This young man is in need of discipline, being so arrogant on his first day; what will it be like in the future! The head of discipline was furious, yet his hand remained suspended in the air, not delivering a slap.
The director of education approached, raising his hand as if to strike someone, but at that moment, a voice called out: "Stop, Old Yan!"
"Go report in," said Cang Long淡淡, "What do you mean by fake foreign devils?"
"Report? Are you new here?" The balding middle-aged man assumed that the young man was a student who had just arrived at the school.
Cang Long was just about to speak when Wang Jiao rushed over, panting. She pushed Cang Long and said to the teacher inside, "Excuse me, we are students from Class 9 of the third year. Well, our homeroom teacher hasn't arrived yet, so we are anxious and came to ask what we should do next"
"How do you know so much about the First Middle School?" the Azure Dragon occasionally interjects.
"Have you been waiting long? Are you deliberately looking for trouble? I think you need to be taught a lesson!" The balding middle-aged man slammed the table and, saying this, quickly walked away.
