Chapter 449: A Misunderstanding

The dean’s face flushed with delight at the thought.

Princ.i.p.al Kong was no less ecstatic when he heard the news.

Upon further discussion, however, he understood that the student had not come to their school due to other unrelated obligations.

They had traveled overnight, after all, which was quite impressive in itself.

Even so, Princ.i.p.al Kongnever suspected that the transfer had something to do withYao Tang, and he granted his approval with a casual wave of his hand.

Li Yue later met the administrative director in person to express her intentions for her brother.

“Now that you’ve seen my brother’s grades, I believe you will agree with me when I say that his Mathematics grade needs a lot of work.”

“Oh, that would be no problem at all,” the director grinned. “I think I already understand the situation. Do advise your younger brother to prepare well for our school exams.”

Li Yue took his words as a vote of confidence in their curriculum. Her eyes sparkled with excitement at the idea thatLi Chen’s grades would be soaring in no time.

“Thank you so much. It seems that we’ve come to the right place this time.”

Funnily enough, the director thought that she was thanking them for their leniency, seeing as how they were ready to accept Li Chendespite his poor scores in Math.

“Of course, of course. As educators, we understand your sentiments all too well. No. 1 High Schoolhas always been generous to its students. We subscribe to the notion that students must be allowed to explore their weaknesses as much as they are encouraged to show their greatest strengths. We only hope that they learn from their shortcomings and rise above them over time.”

Li Yue finally sensed that something was amiss, then, but she brushed it off and continued, “Well, that’s good to hear. My younger brother has a particular weakness in mathematics, but I know that your teachers are more than capable of helping him overcome the subject. That’s why we didn’t hesitate to come over right away.”

‘Wait… What?’

It was the director’s turn to be confused. His brows furrowed for a moment as he thought back to the last couple of hours. “Hang on, are you saying that you know for certain that our teachers can help improve your brother’s Math scores?”

His voice carried a hint of doubt.

Based on the previous year’s records, City ANo. 1 High Schoolwas not much different fromCity FNo. 1 High Schoolin terms of ranking and acceptance rate.

This was also why the director had initially been baffled when Li Yueappeared out of nowhere asking forLi Chento be temporarily admitted to their school.

Li Yue frowned. “Please, you don’t have to be so modest about it. I do know for a fact that your Mathematics curriculum is far better than the ones practiced inCity F. I do have confidence in your faculty, and I’m sure that my brother will be able to achieve much progress during his stay.”

The director considered this. He did think that their curricula were excellent, but he couldn’t shake off the unease in his heart. They were being praised too much for comfort.

He glanced at Li Yueand saw the sincerity in her eyes. This didn’t seem to be a prank or a scam at all.

And it made the director all the more suspicious.

What on earth was going on?

“Miss Li,” he said with some hesitation. “By any chance, did you happen upon a Math lecture given by one of our teachers?”

Their school had a strict policy prohibiting their teachers from tutoring outside the campus, regardless of whether the students attended No. 1 High Schoolor not.

So if Li Yuedid attend one such lecture, then there would definitely be a problem.

Not only had the teacher in question broken the rules, but they had also allowed someone from a rival school to partic.i.p.ate in their remedial cla.s.s. The school board would not be happy about this, and the consequences would be dire.

The director felt a thin sheen of sweat forming on his forehead.

Li Yue took one good look at him and realized that there had been a misunderstanding.

“Oh, it’s not what you think at all. Please allow me to explain first. You see, my brother and I accidentally joined a video conference call organized by the students of your school. They were holding remedial cla.s.ses for each subject, and my brother learned a lot. I, too, was pretty impressed with what I’ve seen. This is why I have utmost faith in the teaching methods you employ here at City ANo. 1 High School.”
