271 Lin Hao’s Notice

When Chu Ning took a break and looked at the time, she realized that it was almost two in the afternoon.

She began to feel a little hungry. Other than a few pieces of bread and some water, she had not eaten anything else in the morning.

Just as she was about to head downstairs to see if any ingredients were left in the kitchen, her phone rang again.

“Mr. Lin? Isn’t it the weekend today? Why are you calling?” Chu Ning picked up and said with a smile.

Lin Hao must have something important to tell her if he was calling at this time. Maybe she received an award for the national physics competition?

“Chu Ning, will you be free this afternoon?” Lin Hao sounded rather troubled.

“I have nothing much in the afternoon. What’s the matter, Mr. Lin? Do you want to meet me?” Chu Ning was a little surprised. Lin Hao seemed reluctant to talk about it over the phone.

“Let’s meet at the library. I have to let you know about something in advance.” Lin Hao felt a little helpless after saying that.

However, there was nothing he could do. The power of capital was too terrifying. He was just a powerless teacher at Jingyuan High School. Even though he knew that someone was deliberately targeting Chu Ning, he couldn’t do anything about it. After all, it would only take a word from that person for him to lose his job as well.

Privately alerting Chu Ning was the best he could do.

“Okay, I’ll be there soon.” Chu Ning could sense that something was wrong from Lin Hao’s dejected tone.

Half an hour later, Chu Ning arrived at the meeting place on time. Lin Hao was already sitting there with a rather serious expression. When he saw Chu Ning, he forced a half-hearted smile.

“Mr. Lin, what happened? Did your wife find out about your secret stash of pocket money?” Chu Ning pulled out a chair and sat opposite Lin Hao.

Hearing Chu Ning’s teasing, Lin Hao could only smile bitterly and reply, “I wish that was the case.”

“Oh? What could be so devastating to even upset the ever optimistic Mr. Lin?” Chu Ning asked curiously.

“It’s about you.” Lin Hao looked at Chu Ning’s smile and couldn’t bear to tell her the cruel truth. He knew that once she knew about it, she might transfer to another school.

“First of all, I want to congratulate you, Chu Ning. You won the gold award in this year’s national physics competition. This was supposed to be announced in school tomorrow, but I’m telling you in advance.” Lin Hao announced calmly. He should have been happy about this, but he couldn’t even force a smile.

“That’s a good thing. But Mr. Lin, you didn’t ask me to come just to tell me this, did you?” Chu Ning didn’t react strongly. Receiving the gold award was something to be happy about, and it had met her expectations. However, compared to what she had done yesterday, the gold award seemed insignificant.

“You seem… very calm?” Lin Hao looked at Chu Ning in surprise. He knew very well what the gold award meant, which was why he felt so aggrieved and unfair for Chu Ning.

“It’s just an award. It’s important, but it doesn’t mean anything.” Chu Ning shrugged. She only cared about the tangible benefits that came with this gold award. As for titles and honors, she really did not care.

Seeing Chu Ning’s unexpected attitude, Lin Hao, who had already prepared an approach to bring up the matter, suddenly felt disappointed.

After hesitating for a few seconds, he continued, “The Board of Directors will be giving you a reward, but the amount is quite different from what you expected. I think they are working together to target you, although I have no idea why.”

“Oh? Mr. Lin, are you saying that someone from the Board of Directors is targeting me?” Chu Ning asked in surprise.

“Yes. Actually, your requests were pretty reasonable, but four directors still opposed giving you a reward. The rest of them naturally didn’t want to offend these four people. Although they didn’t say anything, not expressing their position itself is an attitude in itself, so nobody objected to this unfair decision in the end.”

After saying that, Lin Hao helplessly sighed.

“You know, it’s not just me, even the principal had no say in this. The final decision was in the hands of these directors.” Lin Hao’s face was burning from embarrassment. It was a little torturous for him to be talking to a student about such things.
