The man greeted the teachers with a warm smile before looking towards Yang Chen and Li Jingjing. Upon seeing Li Jingjing covered in fashionable clothes and her long slender legs revealed by the hot pants like white jade, excitement flashed in his eyes, and he praised, “Jingjing, you’re really pretty today. If you dressed like this in school everyday, I reckon all the teachers and students will have their eyes on you.”
The other teachers all agreed, and complimented how beautiful and attractive Li Jingjing’s attire was.
Such praise was a little exaggerated, but all women enjoyed others praising their beauty.
When he looked at Yang Chen, the man’s eyes narrowed for a moment before he warmly stretched his hand out, “You must be the one mentioned by Jingjing earlier, Mr Yang. I’m Jiang Shuo, Yi Zhong’s English Department’s Head. May I know, how should I address you, and where does an elite like you work?”
Yang Chen internally murmured “another smiling man with evil intentions” and unconcernedly went forward to shake hands, “I’m Yang Chen, you can call me whatever you like, I’m just a small employee in a company that buys breakfast and does odd jobs.”
Once he heard this, a light shone in Jiang Shuo’s eyes, and he straightened his back. With some stubbornness and arrogance he said, “Mr Yang need not be modest, we are still young, as long as you work hard, in the future there will definitely be a day you can succeed. Perhaps you can become someone like I, named Jiang who had a higher starting point. Oh right, Mr Yang might not know of this, but my father, Mr Jiang Meng, is the headmaster of Yi Zhong and the Vice Chief of Zhong Hai’s Department of Education. It is by taking advantage of my father’s connections that I managed to become Yi Zhong’s English department head and Vice Head of the Teaching Department. I feel ashamed to say that other than publishing a few theses in the country’s textbooks and bringing a team overseas for some interviews on a few occasions, I haven’t done anything noteworthy. Perhaps in the future, Mr Yang’s achievements would even be greater than mine.”
“Department Head Jiang is being overly modest. Amongst us, who is unaware that Department Head Jiang is our school, Yi Zhong’s hope for the future, and the most impressive rising star in the academic world?” A middle-aged female teacher swiftly stated.
“That’s right.” The skinny female teacher also chimed in, “Who knows, perhaps in a few more years Department Head Jiang would become our school’s headmaster. In terms of capability, who can compare with Department Head Jiang?”
All the teachers had actually sung a whole bunch of praises all at once, while Jiang Shuo was instead “modestly” smiling, waving his hands saying, “I don’t deserve your praise.”
Yang Chen had truly witnessed an eye-opener, and rubbed his nose to cover his smile.
I’ve seen shameless people, but I’ve never met someone even more shameless than me! Seems like I’m not alone in this dao, at the very least, there’s this chap in front of me whose skin is thicker than the city wall!
