Chapter 277 - 277 Departure
277 Departure
Chu Ning suddenly looked up at the physics teacher who had always been positive and high-spirited.
She thought of a possibility for his behavior and sighed helplessly. To a certain extent, the physics teacher’s personality was similar to hers.
“All of you may be a little confused, but what I want to say is that I have high hopes for all of you. The future is waiting for you to discover and explore. I hope that you will always be passionate and firm in your beliefs. For today’s lesson, I will not be teaching you content from the textbook because I believe that it is more important to establish correct values in our students!”
“The gold award winner of the national physics competition has been announced. Chu Ning from our class won the gold award. This is something we should celebrate because high schools in other areas can now know about our Jingyuan High School. If students from other schools can do it, so can you. M City’s students are not worse than others!”
The physics teacher paused. He glanced at Chu Ning and continued, “I really like this school, but its foundation has begun to waver. The school is no longer focusing on educating the youth. How sad is it when a school’s focus is not on the students, but on generating profit instead?”
“This goes against my beliefs and morals. This is also why I’m telling all of you that this is my last class. However, I still sincerely hope that you can study hard and not forget your goals! That’s all. You may study by yourselves for the rest of the lesson’s time.”
The physics teacher’s words were powerful and full of emotion. Chu Ning could feel that he was really reluctant, but he still chose to leave. She thought that he might have already prepared a resignation letter before he said these words to the class.
He was an upright and brave teacher. In addition, he was a fresh graduate who just entered society. Naturally, he couldn’t understand the school’s reasoning behind suppressing a genius student like Chu Ning, as well as the stakeholders’ interests involved behind it.
Yan Shen received five million Yuan for the excellence award, while Chu Ning’s golden award was only worth a hundred thousand Yuan. The school’s directors even talked to him and asked him to do something against his principles.
He could not accept it.
Chu Ning also felt that it was a pity for Jingyuan High School to miss out on an outstanding teacher, no, an outstanding talent. In fact, if the physics teacher had waited a few more days, he would have witnessed a different ending. But sometimes, fate was like this. It could be accidental, but it was more inevitable.
The students below the podium were very quiet.
The physics teacher was a great teacher with a strong sense of responsibility. He never gave up on any student in the class, including Ye Ting. Even though he was not fond of Ye Ting’s pretentious character, he still spared no effort in answering her questions. He never gave Chu Ning special treatment just because her grades were good.
Yet, his honorable character also meant that he couldn’t accept the school’s way of doing things, so his departure was inevitable.
Ye Ting hated Chu Ning even more. She thought that if it wasn’t for her, such a good physics teacher wouldn’t have left.
The class passed by very quickly, and it was going to end in a few minutes.
Many students lowered their heads. No matter boys or girls, their eyes were filled with tears. They knew that the physics teacher, who was usually cheerful and liked to joke, was serious this time, even though they really hoped that it was a joke.
There were teachers like the chemistry teacher, and also teachers like the physics teacher. Chu Ning believed it was normal.
She didn’t hate the chemistry teacher because she knew that his actions were human nature. Just like those people she saved at the amusement park, they didn’t know Chu Ning’s intentions.
It was time, and the bell rang.
“Students, goodbye. I hope you all have the courage and determination to pursue your dreams.” The physics teacher wished his students well silently. He stood on the podium with a smile on his face. He took a deep breath, bowed slightly to the students below, and then left the classroom.
His back was straight, just like his character, upright and kind.
After class, during the break, the classroom began to talk amongst themselves, but no one left their seats.
“What a detestable school! How dare they bully Mr. Fang like this!” Xiaomi lamented bitterly.
“This is a good thing, Xiaomi. Don’t be sad. I think a good teacher like Mr. Fang will achieve great things no matter where he goes. It’s not a bad thing for him to leave Jingyuan High School, because this place doesn’t suit him.” Chu Ning comforted her softly.
