Chapter 100: Chapter 100: Is the Security Department Short of People?

At Lin Yi’s home, Lin Yi was sitting on the sofa talking eloquently when he suddenly sneezed out of nowhere.

He rubbed his nose and cursed a bit irritably:

“Who’s thinking of me, damn it.”

After he said that, all the leaders in front of him were left speechless.

Thoughts in their minds were, “We’re recording you, and you’re cursing like that…”

Fortunately, Lin Yi’s performance was pretty good; he hadn’t abandoned Third High or the education on the island.

Going back, we’ll edit and cut out his occasional swearing, and it should still turn out quite well.

They chatted for a while longer, and when they realized they’d covered everything, Director Li simply waved his hand, signaling for the TV station staff in the back to put away the camera.

Seeing this, Lin Yi didn’t keep up the act. He relaxed the spirited look he had before and leaned on the sofa, then turned his gaze to Principal Qian and said with a chuckle:

“Haha, Principal, I wonder if I could give you some feedback?”

Upon hearing Lin Yi’s words, everyone perked up their ears, including Director Li, curious about what Lin Yi wanted to say.

They even thought that this guy might ask for that million back now that the camera was away.

But really, if he did ask, Director Li would ultimately agree to give the check back to Lin Yi, and the city would surely be happy to cover that million.

After all, compared to the living advertisement that is Lin Yi, a few million isn’t that big of a deal.

“Don’t look at me like that, everyone. I’m just casually suggesting something.”

As he glanced around the room, Lin Yi casually waved his hand and continued:

“Here’s the thing, Principal, you must know Teacher Dong Jingjing, right?”

After hearing this, Principal Qian couldn’t help but show a smile at the corner of his mouth:

“Haha, I know what you want to say, kid. Rest assured, all your teachers will be rewarded. Teacher Wang, your homeroom teacher, will get a 100,000 yuan bonus, and each of your subject teachers will get 30,000 yuan! How does that sound, are you satisfied?”

Even though Lin Yi sometimes threw in a word or two that wasn’t quite proper during his speech, Principal Qian had to admit one thing: Lin Yi, this rascal, is quite loyal and righteous.

This was the trait that Principal Qian found most satisfactory.

After all, a person who values feelings and righteousness can’t be that bad, right?

Just look at how Lin Yi, after knowing his grades, kept praising Third High and their island’s education in the video we recorded a moment ago.

This fully demonstrated Lin Yi’s loyalty and righteousness.

However, after hearing Principal Qian’s words, Lin Yi couldn’t help but twitch his mouth:

“Hehe, that’s only natural, teachers work so hard, especially Teacher Dong Jingjing. Let me put it this way, in my most difficult times, it was Teacher Dong Jingjing who gave me the greatest encouragement!”

At this, Principal Qian was quite surprised. In his impression, Teacher Dong came across as rather sharp-tongued and harsh, but unexpectedly turned out to be such a good teacher–proving the saying true: you can’t judge a book by its cover.

Not only Principal Qian, but even Director Li and others on the side had formed a good impression of this Teacher Dong Jingjing.

Since student Lin Yi said so, Director Li planned to raise this teacher’s bonus to 50,000 yuan!

However, before he could speak, Lin Yi’s subsequent words caught him off guard.

“Sigh, Teacher Dong really cares about the students, wholeheartedly saving resources for the school! To prevent wear on the classroom benches, he made half the students stand during his class. Even if each class isn’t that long, doing it every day adds up, and in this way, the school saves dozens of benches every year!”

“Whenever he feels the classroom air isn’t good, he asks some students to breathe fresh air in the corridor for a whole class–it shows he cares deeply about the students’ health.”

“Uh… this,”

At first, it seemed nothing was amiss, but the more they heard, the more wrong it sounded–this wasn’t about saving resources for the school; it was clearly punishing the students!

Principal Qian couldn’t help but chuckle bitterly in his heart; this rascal was not praising Dong Jingjing at all; he was complaining to him.

But it wasn’t over; Lin Yi deliberately sighed and said:

“Sigh, Teacher Dong’s countless glorious deeds aside, during my own hardest times, he even planned my fallback options.

Not only did he recommend renowned national universities like Lanxiang University and New Oriental University, but also mapped out future career plans for me in ‘Resource Integration and Recycling Industry’, ‘Mobile Wealth-Gathering Specialist’, etc. He truly cared for me in every possible way.”

Lin Yi was getting warmed up when Director Li, a bit puzzled, interrupted and asked somewhat uncertainly:

“Uh, hold on just a moment, student Lin Yi, can I ask, what are the ‘Resource Integration and Recycling Industry’ and ‘Mobile Wealth-Gathering Specialist’? I’ve never heard of them.”

In response, Lin Yi exclaimed:

“Oh, these are rather fancy titles, it’s understandable if you haven’t heard them before. But their more down-to-earth versions, everyone surely knows.

The ‘Resource Integration and Recycling Industry’ is called ‘collecting scrap’ or ‘scavenger’ in layman’s terms;

As for the ‘Mobile Wealth-Gathering Specialist’, the colloquial term would be ‘beggar’ or ‘panhandler’.”

As soon as Lin Yi finished, Director Li’s face flushed, and he immediately slapped the table hard:

“Nonsense! Black sheep! A cancer in the teaching team! Just one rotten apple spoils the whole barrel! A single foul fish ruins the entire pot!”

After rebuking, he directly turned to Principal Qian, speaking in a very serious tone:

“Old Qian, you must immediately start an investigation to see if Dong Jingjing has any violations! Check if this is his conduct during teaching! Such a person doesn’t belong in the teaching team! If there’s a problem, get him out of here!”

However, Lin Yi quickly waved his hand after hearing this:

“No, no, no, Director Li, it’s not easy to cultivate them for the country just once, we still need to let them show their maximum value, right? If there’s really a problem, firing is not necessary. Oh, by the way, Principal Qian, don’t we always lack staff at the school’s security office?”
