The girl who fell into the water was called Zhu Fang. Because her student number was 40, she was the last one to board the boat.
She was lying on the bed in the school infirmary. Her hair had been dried, and her wet school uniform had been changed. She was wearing a disposable hospital gown. Looking at Fang Yan and the students standing in front of her, Zhu Fang said with a pale face and guilt: "Teacher Fang, I'm sorry, I didn't complete the task well. I let you down."
She was originally full of confidence and wanted to give everyone a perfect ending, but because of her carelessness, these two classes became a farce. She felt very upset and felt sorry for everyone standing in front of her.
"You didn't disappoint me." Fang Yan said with a smile. "You performed very well. You boarded the ship with courage and recited poetry with passion - it was just that your foot slipped accidentally. This is a mistake that anyone can make. It has nothing to do with you."
"But----"
"Don't think too much." Fang Yan said softly and comforted, "It's okay. Have a good rest. Your parents may be here soon, explain it to them. Don't let them worry. Leave the rest to us."
"My parents?" Zhu Fang was stunned. "How did they know?"
"They are your parents and have the right to know everything about you." Fang Yan said with a smile.
The reason why Zhu Fang's parents were able to get here so quickly was naturally because some people with ulterior motives tipped them off.
One can imagine how the parents felt when their daughter fell into the water at school.
However, Fang Yan didn't think there was anything wrong with what he did. Whose parents don't care about their children
If he had children, he would also want to know every detail of his children's learning.
He would have done the same thing if it was his opponent who made the mistake.
Zhu Fang climbed up from the hospital bed, looked at Fang Yan with a firm gaze, and said, "Teacher Fang, don't worry, I will explain it to my parents. I fell into the water by accident, and it has nothing to do with you."
Fang Yan shook his head and said, "It has something to do with me. I should have done my job more thoroughly and carefully to ensure your safety. Don't worry, this won't happen again."
"Thank you, Teacher Fang." Zhu Fang said gratefully.
Fang Yan turned around and looked at the students from Class 9 beside him and said, "You guys should go back to class. Don't let the teacher wait for you too long."
"Also, after today's recitation, you should have developed a deep interest in the poem "A Farewell to Cambridge", right? Go back and find more famous scholars to interpret it and Xu Zhimo's mood when he wrote this poem. In that way, you will have a more comprehensive and systematic understanding of this poem. This is my homework for you, and I can tell you frankly that I won't check it."
Huang Haoran walked to Fang Yan and said, "Teacher Fang, are you okay?"
Fang Yan patted his shoulder and said with a smile: "What can I do?"
"That's right. What could possibly happen to Teacher Fang?" Zheng Guodong squeezed in from the back of the crowd, his face full of gloating, and said, "The worst that can happen is that he will be expelled from school. What's the big deal? Isn't that right, Teacher Fang?"
"That's right. Teacher Fang is such a talented person, he can find a job to support his family anywhere. After leaving Zhuque, maybe he can find a job as a teacher in some sparrow or bird school soon." Li Yang added from behind.
"Teacher Fang, don't worry, we will miss you." Chen Tao's face was almost twitching with laughter. This guy was too funny. He originally wanted to attract attention by sensationalism, but he didn't expect to ruin his reputation and get expelled from school.
"Zheng Guodong, you are going too far." Huang Haoran said angrily.
"That's right. How can you talk to Teacher Fang like that?" Zhu Fang accused.
"Mr. Zheng, don't go too far. Teacher Fang is a nice person----" Zhao Lei, Zheng Guodong's friends did not stand on their side either.
"What? You can't stand it anymore?" Zheng Guodong sneered. "If you can't stand it, then find a way to keep him here."
"That's right. A bunch of big talkers." Li Yang shouted. He had received the news that Fang Yan would definitely leave this time.
Fang Yan stared coldly at Zheng Guodong and the other two and said, "Do you think you will win if you drive me away?"
"What do you think?" Zheng Guodong said with a smile. "Could it be that you won?"
"You have already lost. Haven't you realized it yet?"
"How did we lose?"
"Not having a good teacher like me will be the biggest regret of your life, even though you are not willing to admit it now-----"
"Hahaha, this is so funny that I am dying----"
"What's so fun about laughing? Let's fight according to the rules of martial arts." Fang Yan looked at him with a smile.
"-----" Zheng Guodong couldn't laugh anymore.
Li Yang and Chen Tao couldn't help but take a step back. They were frightened by Fang Yan's beating.
"Look, I'm not wrong, am I?" Fang Yan said. "If I were your teacher, with your IQ, it would be hard for me to teach you anything, but I would at least give you some courage---"
"------"
"Teacher Fang Yan----Fang Yan----" Zheng Jing's voice came from outside.
Fang Yan walked to the door and asked with a smile, "Director Zheng, are you looking for me?"
Zheng Jing looked at Fang Yan with a strange look in his eyes and said coldly, "Principal Lu is looking for you."
"Okay, I'll be there right away." Fang Yan nodded in agreement. But he was a little confused. Although Zheng Jing had looked down on him before, he was still somewhat close to him because of Principal Lu Chaoge. What happened today? Was he raped or blackmailed for money
After Fang Yan and Zheng Jing walked away, Zheng Guodong said coldly to the students of Class 9 present: "Don't blame me for not telling you in advance. You'd better stay away from that bastard. He has been expelled from the school. I still have to spend every day with you. If you anger me, you will bear the consequences yourself."
"------"

"Don't tell me the answer, let me guess first." Fang Yan walked around the corner, looking like he was thinking hard. "Is this a hundred birds paying homage to the phoenix? Not really, the flower species are not that many. Is this called a sky full of star rain? Not really. Although there are baby's breath dotted in between, the number is not so large that it can be described as a sky full of star rain. Oh, I remember. This is a pig-killing dish. Throw a little bit of everything in it, and the taste is still delicious. Is it a pig-killing dish?"
"------" Lu Chaoge wanted to die. You are such a pig-killing idiot, no wonder everyone wants to kick you out of school. Why didn't I raise my hand when we voted just now
You call my "colorful flowers" a "pig-killing dish"? You are the "pig-killing dish".
"No?" Fang Yan asked cautiously.
"Teacher Fang Yan, please come and sit down." Lu Chaoge said expressionlessly.
"Hey----" Fang Yan agreed. "Principal Lu, don't be so polite to me, just call me Xiao Fang."
"------"
"Xiao Fang, kind and approachable." Fang Yan was very satisfied with this name.
"Xiao Fang----I'll just call you Fang Yan." Lu Chaoge couldn't really pronounce those two names. "Is that female classmate okay?"
"It's okay. I just got startled accidentally."
"are you OK?"
"I'm fine." Fang Yan said. Isn't he sitting in front of you intact
"You're fired." Lu Chaoge said.
Fang Yan was shocked and asked anxiously, "Then will my salary for the past two days still be paid?"
"Shouldn't you care more about your students?" Lu Chaoge raised his eyebrows and reminded.
"I care about them a lot," Fang Yan said. "Is my salary paid monthly or daily? According to the labor law, if you take the initiative to fire me, you have to compensate me for three months' salary, right? Otherwise, I will sue you for illegal treatment of workers."
"------" Lu Chaoge felt that it was really difficult to communicate with him.
"The issue we are discussing is very important. Principal Lu, you cannot remain silent at this time." Fang Yan urged. "You will make me suspect something bad if you do this."
"I don't know if they will give you two days' salary. I don't know if they will give you three months' salary either." Lu Chaoge tried hard to look directly at Fang Yan's face, which made him want to punch him more and more, and said, "I quit."
Fang Yan calmed down.
After a long while, he asked, "Is it because of me?"
"Yes and no."
"It's not easy to do things in China," Fang Yan laughed.
Lu Chaoge frowned and said, "What else did Zheng Jing say to you?"
Fang Yan pointed at the bookcase behind Lu Chaoge and said, "They are all big books in English and French, which proves that your English and French are very good. People like you usually have a background of studying abroad. In addition, I have seen your resume on the official website of the school. You are the education queen of American high schools, but you have encountered obstacles everywhere when you returned to China. It must be very uncomfortable, isn't it?"
"You understand everything?"
"I don't understand what I'm not supposed to understand." Fang Yan said.
"That's right." Lu Chaoge decided to let go of her reserve and have a good talk with Fang Yan. The things this young man possessed surprised her again and again. Of course, there were also shocks. "Your story was just a trigger. The real reason that prompted me to resign was because this school was too conservative. They invited me back just to make me a signboard to tell the outside world that their school can accommodate talents. The best high school teachers in the United States were also hired by them with high salaries. However, when I have any ideas, they restrict me everywhere, making me feel tied up and unable to do anything."
"So when you saw me, it was as if you saw a beacon and a direction?" Fang Yan asked shamelessly. "I am the star in the sky, the navigation tower in the sea, and the person who guides you to the other side?"
"Yes." Lu Chaoge said through gritted teeth, suppressing the urge to feel nauseous.
"You support me because you see hope for reform in me," Fang Yan continued. "You want me to help you charge forward and tear open their solid camp and rigid thinking one by one - in fact, we are on the same path."
"No, you are mine." Lu Chaoge corrected Fang Yan.
Fang Yan thought for a moment and said cautiously, "You're not going to ask me to provide you with a sleeping arrangement, are you? I'm a man of principle. If the price is not fair, I will refuse even if you are my leader."
