“Got it, Vice-Principal Li.”

Song Jia hung up after giving a quick response.

“Lin, Vice-Principal Li wants you to go over.”

“Where’s his office?”

“Bishop 608.”

“Okay, I’ll go over now.”

“Lin, you have to keep a low profile when you go to the principal’s office. You have to apologize to them. There might still be room to save the situation. Otherwise, you won’t be able to stay in the school,” Li Xingbang advised.

“It’s fine, I know what I’m doing.”

Lin Yi whistled as he walked slowly towards Li Detian’s office.

The Vice Principal’s office and the School Committee’s Office were both in the bishop’s block, but they were not located on the same floor. Lin Yi arrived at the door to the vice principal’s office in a few minutes.

Lin Yi pushed open the door and saw a middle-aged man in his fifties sitting behind the desk. He was wearing a white half-sleeve shirt and gray suit pants. If he was not mistaken, this person was Li Detian.

The guy he had just met, Fu Jiajun, was sitting on the sofa next to him, looking at him with a smile.

“Lin Yi, you’re pretty punctual. You got here so quickly. Have you packed everything?”

Lin Yi pulled a chair over. “Go ahead, I’d like to hear what reason you’d like to use to fire me.”

“Cough cough cough…”

Li Detian coughed a few times and pretended to be calm.

“Lin, I looked at your information just now. I don’t think you’re suitable to work in the university with your education. You should find another job.”

“That’s a strange reason.”

“Lin, don’t misunderstand. I just think that your educational qualifications are suitable for the work of the school committee. It has nothing to do with anything else,” Li Detian said.

Ring, Ring, Ring…

Lin Yi’s phone rang in his pocket. It was from an unknown number.

“Is that Teacher Lin?”

The voice sounded familiar. Lin Yi thought for a few seconds and realized that it was the principal, Zhao Qi.

“What’s the matter?”

“I’ve already prepared the letter of appointment and the Certificate of Honor. Do you have time now? Come to my office, let’s sign the contract.”

“It’s impossible for me to sign the contract as I’m about to be fired. Don’t worry, our paths down life are long and winding. We’ll meet again if we’re fated.”

“Eh? Fired?”

Zhao Qi’s voice rose. “I’m the principal of the university. I haven’t said anything yet, so who dares to fire you!”

“Li Detian.”

“Where are you guys? I’m going over now.” Zhao Qi scolded, “That bastard, watch how I deal with him today!”

“He’s in his office.”

“Wait for me, I’m coming over now!”

“Alright, come over then.”

Li Detian hung up the phone, his expression a little unnatural. “Lin, who called you just now?”

“Don’t worry, you’ll see him soon,” Lin Yi said with a smile.

“Uncle, don’t bother with him,” Fu Jiajun said. “You’re already the vice principal, so you’re the boss of the university. Who can control you?”

Li Detian nodded. In the entire school, he was second-in-command only to Zhao Qi, so who could do anything to him?

Moreover, Lin Yi was just a member of the school’s committee, so how capable could he really be?

If he really had powerful connections, why would he just be a small-time member of the league committee?

“I think you should stop struggling and quickly pack your things and leave.” Fu Jiajun smiled at Lin Yi.

“If you realize that you’re wrong, I can give you a chance, but you can’t stay in the committee. The security job at the door suits you.”

Click!

At that moment, the office door was pushed open and Zhao Qi walked in from outside.

“Principal Zhao!”

Li Detian and Jiajun were surprised to see Zhao Qi come in. They did not expect Zhao Qi to come quietly.

“What’s going on?” Zhao Qi asked.

Li Detian said with a smile,

“This is Teacher Lin from the league committee. I looked at his resume just now and found that he is just an ordinary undergraduate student. Moreover, he has no previous experience in the education industry. I don’t think he is suitable to work in a normal university. I’m talking to him right now.”

“Bullsh*t!”

Zhao Qi cursed, and Li Detian and Fu Jiajun were dumbfounded!

“Principal Zhao, what’s wrong? Why are you so angry?”

Zhao Qi was so angry that he was out of breath. “Do you know who Lin Yi is? I finally got him to be an honorary vice-principal, yet you want to expel him? Are you out of your mind?”

“What? ! Honorary vice-principal?!”

Li Detian and Fu Jiajun’s jaws almost dropped to the ground. They were so scared that they could not speak!

“Let me tell you, Lin Yi is the director of Longxin Research Institute, and he donated more than 20 million dollars worth of research equipment to the university. If you want to expel Lin Yi, it means you don’t want to stay at the university anymore, right?!”

“H-he is the director of Longxin Research Institute?”

Li Detian knew about the situation at Longxin Research Institute.

However, he never thought that Lin Yi would have bought the huge Longxin Research Institute himself!

“He… Isn’t he just a member of the school committee? How could he do such a thing?”

“Member of the school committee?” Zhao Qi snorted, “Do you think that Lin Yi is the same as you?? “He’s a big-hearted person. He wants to devote everything he has to education, and that’s why he came to teach at the university. Even so, you two are treating him like this. I think you should stop working at the university and resign!”

Fu Jiajun was dumbfounded.

He had just climbed to the position of associate professor, and his butt had not even warmed up yet, and he was being fired?

What should he do in the future?

Li Detian’s situation was not any better than Fu Jiajun’s.

He was the vice-president of the university, and his appointment and dismissal were all handled by the education bureau.

However, Zhao Qi had a strong network in the education bureau. If he wanted to fire him, it was just a matter of a simple phone call.

Now that he had spoken, it would be difficult for him to stay in the normal university.

“President Zhao, this is our fault. I beg you to give me another chance,” Li Detian said with a sad face.

“We have worked together for so many years. You can’t just kill us off!”

“Kill us off?” Zhao Qi snorted. “Think about it carefully. How many opportunities have I given you? With Fu Jiajun’s character, don’t you know how he became an associate professor?”

“You know how much money you have stolen from this position over the years! I have done my best by keeping you here for so long!”

Thinking of this, Li Detian was completely dumbfounded. At this point, there was no room for redemption.

Slap!

Li Detian slapped Fu Jiajun’s face. “It’s all your f*cking fault! For the sake of a woman, you even made me lose my job!”

“I didn’t do it on purpose. If I had known that he had such a strong background, I wouldn’t have dared to do it even if I had a hundred guts.”

“Alright, I don’t want to talk anymore. You two can pack up and leave.”

“Yes, yes, Principal Zhao. We are packing up now.”

Lin Yi ignored the rest of the matter and went to Zhao Qi’s office to sign the letter of appointment.

“That’s enough, right?” Lin Yi said.

“Yes.” Zhao Qi nodded. “I’ll get the letter of appointment and certificate to the police station in the afternoon. It’ll then be confirmed.”

“I’ll have to trouble you with that, Principal Zhao.” Lin Yi smiled.

“You’re welcome. You’ve made such a great contribution to the school. This is the least I should do.” Zhao Qi said.

“Teacher Lin, why don’t I arrange for an office for you? The school committee room is too small for you and is inappropriate.” Zhao Qi said with a smile.

“I’m not practising martial arts in there. It’s fine as long as I have a desk. Besides, I’m not at school often. There’s no need to waste money.”

“I know you keep a low profile and don’t want to expose your identity, so I won’t say anything. Also, don’t worry about the school. Even if you don’t come to school, no one can do anything to you. You will just need to say your name.”

“In that case, I’d like to thank you, Principal Zhao. If there’s nothing else, I’ll go back first.”

“I’ll send you.”

“No, no, I know the way.”

“How can that be? I’ll drive you.”

Lin Yi had no choice but to go back with Zhao Qi.

..

Song Jia and the others were not looking too good inside the school’s Committee office.

They figured that Lin Yi would have to pack up and leave by the time he got back.

What should they do?
