Chapter 655: Acting Principal!
Sign?
Did the students need to sign the expulsion notice themselves? Didn’t the school just announce it then chase them away?
The group of students was stunned. Then they saw Xue Xi receive the notice.
Li Xuelei was still gloating. “F*ck, what are you looking at? You’re just being asked to withdraw yourself. Elder Feng is giving you face by asking you to sign and leave by yourself, right?”
Just as he said this, he heard Li Zixia, who was squeezing beside Xue Xi, read the contents of the letter of appointment. “…This school will solemnly hire Ms. Xue Xi as our school’s honorary professor!…”
The moment she said this, the entire place fell silent!
Everyone looked at Xue Xi in disbelief and then at the letter of appointment in her hands.
A few people gulped in disbelief. Everyone felt that they must have heard wrongly or were hallucinating.
Xue Xi… an honorary professor?
Xue Xi was only 19 years old, right?
An honorary professor in the Mathematics Department of Huaxia University? Xue Xi was an undergraduate, right? She didn’t just skip grades but immediately became a professor?
This… this was too mystical!
In this silence, Xue Xi finished reading the letter of appointment and was at a loss.
Professor?
She came to Huaxia University to learn things, not to teach. Moreover, with her current standard, what could she teach?
Teach everyone not to chase love and study hard instead?
Xue Xi looked up at Principal Wang blankly. “Principal, I’m afraid I can’t do this…”
At this point, Principal Wang sighed. “This is Elder Feng’s final request. Are you sure you don’t want to agree?”
Elder Feng’s request.
Xue Xi was stunned.
She thought about how Feng Xingshen would spend the rest of his life in prison. She thought about how her teacher had sacrificed ten years of his life for scientific research. She thought about how he had helped her since they first met…
Seeing that she was moved, Principal Wang continued to work hard. “Elder Feng’s lifelong dream is to lead Huaxia University into the global stage and make the whole world pay attention to our mathematics. Xue Xi… Oh, no, you should be called Professor Xue Xi from now on—are you sure you don’t want to accept it?”
What Feng Xingshen wanted was never the Math Department of Huaxia University, or them becoming the top in the country.
He wanted China’s mathematics to go into the world.
This was a heavy burden.
This was what Elder Feng had always wanted.
Xue Xi was filled with respect. She took out a pen from her pocket and wrote on the letter of appointment seriously.
After writing, she passed it to Principal Wang. “I will definitely not let you down.”
Principal Wang also accepted the letter of appointment in a very ceremonial manner. “Professor Xue Xi, from today onwards, you will temporarily lead the Math Department of Huaxia University. You will be the Acting Director of the Math Department. When your teacher has recovered, he will return.”
Elder Feng’s matter was explained to be about recuperation. After all, everyone knew that his body was injured.
Xue Xi nodded. “Okay.”
The two shook hands.
Before he could let go, the other three school directors panicked. “Sister Xi is now the acting Director of the Math Department. What about us? What about our department?”
Principal Wang patted their shoulders. “This, I don’t know. It’s fine for the acting director to study with you, but you can’t just ignore the Mathematics Department, right?”
The three directors: “?”
After Principal Wang left, the three directors pounded their chests and stamped their feet. Old Feng, you’re really cunning! You must have done it on purpose!
He snatched Sister Xi away from us just like that!
Just as the three of them were feeling vexed, Xue Xi looked at them and said, “Teachers…”
Director Liu clutched his chest and sighed. “Sister Xi, actually, I haven’t told you that I have a very serious heart disease and might need to rest. When can you let go of Old Feng’s heavy responsibility? Shall we schedule the time so I can go and recuperate?”
Xue Xi: “?”
After she promised the three directors that she would definitely still study their three courses and not give up on physics, chemistry, and computers, only then did the three directors finally leave.
After they left, the people in the laboratory were still in shock.
Beside her, Li Xuelei gulped as well. Just as he lowered his head and was about to escape, Xue Xi stared fixedly at him. “Mr. Li Xuelei, where are you going?”
