A Valiant Life

At the Shanghai Airport.

“Director Chen, it must have been tough on you.”

“No, it wasn’t tiring at all. To be able to talk to the people overseas from Stanford University makes any hardship worthwhile,” Director Chen was about 50 years old and was highly capable. His trip overseas went very smoothly this time around. Although it was a little time-consuming, he did not care because he had succeeded.

“Hey, Director Chen. Looks like something has happened at the school.”

Director Chen was stunned. He said, “What happened?”

“You should take a look. It looks like the students have organized a movement request for one of the students from the school to be expelled. Even Master Lin from Cloud Street has gotten involved.”

Director Chen was very familiar with the name Master Lin. He said, “Master Lin? Is it Master Lin from the Chinese Arts Association?”

He loved classical literature, poems, and paintings. He had specially made a trip down to the Beijing museum to see the artworks. When he first saw them, he was stunned by the unique masterpieces.

As a result, he was very curious about Master Lin and wanted to get to know him. Although Master Lin was young, he was able to create such masterpieces, he must have had some profound kind of training.

“That’s right, it’s that Master Lin. He is already at the school now, confronting the students as well as the teachers.”

Director Chen waved his hand and then looked at the video. He was watching and walking at the same, trying to rush back to the school.

He was only gone for half a month, how could such a thing happen?

In the car.

Director Chen had already understood the situation and his complexion was very unsightly. He said, “Preposterous, absolutely preposterous. Jin He University was established 60 years ago and in all its time, it has never had anything like this before. Who approved this? Who agreed to have this student expelled?”

His tone was very serious and he was furious.

The staff members with him admired him in their hearts and they said, “Director, it was Headmaster Yang who made the decision.”

“Yang Min? What power does he have to make this decision? Since Jin He University was established, its goal has been to educate students. Even if the students commit some big mistakes, we will, according to the situation, still give them a chance to turn over a new leaf. Right now, this student is going to be expelled merely because her appearance is a little frightening? I want to ask, who is the one who caused this?”

“Director Chen, the student is called Jin Shan Ping. She had this change of appearance because three years ago, her neighbor’s house caught fire and she went in to save her neighbor’s child.

When Director Chen heard this, he was even more furious. He said, “This sort of student with such virtues is exactly what Jin He University is looking for. She did not receive any commendation and is even going to be expelled? Drive faster. I want to quickly see who is the one who had the nerve to do something like this.”

“Got it,” the driver said as he drove even faster.

Even as a driver, when he heard about this situation, he was very angry inside as well. He never thought that there would actually be students like that in a school. But the thing that confused him, even more, was the actions of the school’s headmaster. He could not understand why he would agree such a request by the students, causing trouble with no reason.

…

At Jin He University.

Jin Shan Ping was very grateful to see Master Lin and the rest of them. However, at that moment, she stood up and said, “Master Lin, don’t argue with them anymore. I’m willing to drop out.”

“No, I won’t allow that,” Lin Fan waved her off and said.

Even if I don’t settle this thing today, I, Master Lin, will keep dragging this on.

Also, the surrounding students also called out.

“Student Jin, don’t drop out. We still love you.”

“That’s right. We don’t feel like you are distracting us. We are willing to be friends with you.”

The rowdy students saw the scene unfolding in front of their eyes and could not help hooting.

“Jin Shan Ping, if I were you, I definitely would not stay here.”

“What are you guys trying to do? She is already willing to drop out by herself.”

“That’s right.”

…

Jin Shan Ping stood up and said, “I’m sorry my fellow students. Because of me, you guys have to live in horror. I understand the situation and I am willing to drop out so that I won’t scare you guys anymore.”

Then, she turned around and bowed towards Lin Fan and the rest of them and said, “Thank you Master Lin and the rest of the students. I’ve already thought it through, I’m going to drop out. Thanks for your help.”

“I said that I won’t allow that,” Lin Fan said. He was furious. Then he looked at the group of rowdy students and said, “F*ck your mothers, you pieces of trash. I’m really itching to make all of you guys crippled. I never thought that there would actually be students like you guys in schools, it’s really disgusting.”

“What do you mean, Mr. Lin? Don’t think that just because you have some fame that we will all be scared of you. What wrong do we even have in this issue? We were the ones who were frightened by her.”

“That’s right. Why don’t you take a look online and see how many people are also frightened by her?”

…

The arguing on the scene was never-ending.

Lin Fan was feeling f*cked on the inside. He really wanted to hammer these students to death. However, he controlled himself.

Don’t do anything rash. Calm down. I won’t give up until this situation is resolved.

“What are you guys doing?”

At this moment, a shout of rage came from the distance.

Everyone saw the person that was coming and was stunned.

“It’s Director Chen.”

The headmaster saw Director Chen and was stunned as well. He did not think that the director had come back already.

Initially, this was also just a small issue and they could have taken care of it. It would never have reached the level of which the director would have been alerted.

Director Chen’s expression was very solemn as he walked towards them. The moment he reached the school, he had heard all the words of the rowdy students. If he did not personally hear them himself, he would not have dared to believe that it was from his own students.

Then he looked at Lin Fan and immediately walked towards him and extended his hand. He said, “Hello Master Lin. I am the director of Jin He University. I went overseas to do some work and I just got back. Regarding this situation, I’m really sorry to have ridiculed you through this.”

Lin Fan originally wanted to express his dissatisfaction towards the director but upon seeing his expression, he could sense his intentions. Thus, he calmed down and nodded. He said, “Director Chen, Jin He University has been a disappointment. Although it is not some hundreds-over-years-old famous school, but it is still quite prestigious in the circle of universities.

Director Chen kept apologizing. This was all his fault. He did not even need to think about this issue. He definitely would not agree to expel a student for such a small reason.

Yang Min rushed over and said, “Director, this issue…”

Director Chen glared at him and did not say a word. Then, he looked at the students who were holding the banner and then looked at the teachers and said, “Record down the names of all these students.”

The teachers definitely could not defy the words of the director.

Han Yan opened her mouth and spoke, “Director, we object to this. Her being in this school is severely affecting our ability to study. We request that she be expelled.”

“That’s right director. We object.”

“If you want her then we will leave. If you want us, then she has to leave.”

The group of ret*rds still did not understand the situation. They thought that just because they had strength in numbers, they could do anything.

The teachers passed him the names that they had recorded down.

Director Chen glanced at it and then was very bitter as he said, “Ever since Jin He University was established, we have strived to educate students as well as govern them with rules equally. Regardless of whether the students are rich or poor, as long as they have the heart for learning, Jin He University will always welcome them. However, in the face of people with huge deficiencies in moral quality, regardless of whether they are the top scorer or have obtained how many awards, Jin He University won’t accept them. Thus, with regards to your request, I’m telling you guys that the student Jin Shan Ping will be staying here. As for you guys, I’m here, giving you guys formal notice that you guys have been expelled. Your actions have been disgraceful and hateful.”

When that sentence was said, the headmaster was thoroughly dumbfounded.

The faces of the rowdy students were as white as ghosts. The arrogant looks on their faces were long gone.

“I don’t want to leave the school. I was wrong. I was just joining in the fun, I didn’t really want her to leave the school.”

“Director, please give us another chance.”

“I can’t be expelled. I’ll get beaten to death.”

“Boo Hoo! Director, please don’t do this, don’t expel us.”

Some of the teachers urgently said, “Director, one of the students here is an International Mathematics Competition champion, you see…”

Director Chen did not even give it a second thought and just waved them off and said, “We don’t need this type of champion.”

Then, he went in front of Jin Shan Ping and said, “Student Jin, I’m very sorry. The school has never discriminated against anyone before. I hope that you don’t have any prejudice against the school.”

Jin Shan Ping stood rooted to the spot, dumbfounded. She still could not grasp what was going on.

Lin Fan raised up his thumb and said, “Director Chen, you really have the greatest conscience out of all the directors in the academic world.”

“Master Lin, if I am the first director you have seen with a conscience, then it is really the grievance of the academic world. Without you Master Lin, I’m afraid that the situation would have spiraled into a stage where it would not be controllable,” Director Chen forced a smile and said.

Lin Fan laughed and said, “Director Chen, this situation really doesn’t concern me at all. If I did not come here, you would have peacefully settled this issue.”

“Hey, I really pity that Student Jin,” Director Chen said.

Lin Fan replied, “Actually, I have another reason for coming here. I feel that I can restore this Student Jin’s face back to normal.”

When Lin Fan said this, the people next to him were all stunned.

Jin Shan Ping looked at Lin Fan with even more disbelief. It was as if she did not believe what he said.

As for the students who were protesting just now, their faces were all completely white and they were crying for their parents. They really did not think that they would be expelled.

The female goddess Han Yan was so scared, she couldn’t even speak.

At the same time, the students who were watching on were all clapping in excitement. They had a huge amount of resentment towards those rowdy students and right now, their retribution had come. It made them feel a great amount of pleasure inside.
