Chapter 562: Chapter 237: Not enough awards to suffice_1
"Ah!?" The young lady, reminded by Yan Fei, was taken by surprise. Upon seeing the gate that was about 10 cm off the ground, she instantly forgot about pursuing Yan Fei. She was blushing so hard that she didn’t even know what to do with her feet!
Yan Fei chuckled, "You just keep busy in the cattle farm! I’m off to school to ask a few things. Now it’s your turn to work and I’ll go to school. Keep it up!"
"Humph! Just go already! You must be proud, we’re halfway through the semester and only now do you remember you’re a student? Just go ahead and show off with your new motorcycle!" She blushed and shot him a glance before stomping off into the distance.
Watching her walk away, Yan Fei muttered to himself, "I’m fine, why would I ride this weird-looking motorcycle to school?"
Then, pushing his bike, he headed straight for school.
Imagine that, Boss Yan coming to school, what a rare sight!
Once inside the school, Yan Fei realized an incredibly frustrating truth. Apart from a few close friends such as Yang Qian and Jiao Bing, everyone else treated him like an alien.
Fortunately, being treated as an ’alien’ wasn’t new to him, and being close to class time, he calmly sat waiting for class to begin.
Then, he realized that not only the students were surprised to see him, but the teachers as well.
The teacher of the first two periods couldn’t stop staring at him. The chemistry teacher of the third period was even more exaggerated. After stepping onto the podium, she saw Yan Fei, looked at him without blinking, then rubbed her eyes and exclaimed, "Who do I see here? Isn’t it Yan Fei? I thought my eyes were deceiving me!"
The students in the class found this hilarious, yet she continued solemnly, "Gentlemen, no laughing! Look here, even Yan Fei now, busy as a bee, has taken time out of his I-am-very-important schedule to come to school. What does that tell you? It clearly shows that studying is crucial! Hence, all of you must focus on your study!"
The students laughed even more at this!
In the end, despite all being students, after Yan Fei sat in the class for two periods, everyone stopped paying much attention to his recent soar to stardom and began to accept him as one of their peers again.
Although this felt good, he couldn’t stay till the fourth period and went to find Teacher Guan.
"Ah? Yan Fei, you’re here?" Hearing the knock on the door, she called to enter and upon seeing Yan Fei, Teacher Guan was also incredibly surprised.
This made Yan Fei quite upset. He wanted to explain but Teacher Guan went on, "Didn’t you say you were going to take the exams early? Now that you’re a big boss, you never show up. Even your sporadic visits earlier were better! Can you even take the examination now? I wasted my time waiting for you. You haven’t even opened your textbook, there’s only half a semester left. Do you still want to take the exams early? You... you’ve made your teacher furious, do you know?"
Making the teacher mad was nothing new!
Yan Fei grumbled inwardly. However, Teacher Guan’s attitude gave him some sense of being a student. Besides, his earlier claim of taking exams early and the subsequent inaction was indeed disappointing...
Considering this, he said somewhat embarrassingly, "Well, here I am now, isn’t it? Anyway, it wouldn’t take much time to cover the stuff in our textbook. Besides, I wanted to ask you if there’s any progress on my request to take the exams early."
"Yes, there is. In fact, I’ve already spoken with a teacher from the third grade, planning to let you attend a few of their classes. After saying so many good things about you, you never showed up, giving me a difficult time!" Teacher Guan complained angrily. "Do you still want to take the exams early? I wanted to talk to the dean earlier but since you hadn’t come, I didn’t bring it up. Now that you’re here, I’ll talk to the dean..."
"Well, that’s good. While you are at it, could you ask if having these certificates would give me some bonus marks?" Yan Fei quickly took out his two certificates.
"Righteous Act Champion Individual? Wild Animal Protection Moral Model?" Teacher Guan was perplexed by his certificates. "Would these work? I think in our school only the certificates of Outstanding Students can get you bonus points?"
"I don’t know, that’s why I wanted you to help me ask. Besides, weren’t you planning to talk to the dean?" Yan Fei answered.
"Hmm?" Teacher Guan pondered. Apparently, approaching the dean was not an easy task for her!
"If it’s too inconvenient for you, I can ask for myself..." Seeing her reaction, Yan Fei offered.
"No, it’s not a problem. I’ll go now." She quickly grabbed the certificates and left. "Wait for me in my office, I’ll be right back."
Yan Fei watched her walk out as he nodded, then obediently sat motionless in the chair in front of the desk.
The conditions of this school were quite tough, with the teachers’ offices and dormitories combined. Just like Teacher Guan, the front half of the room was used as an office and for cooking, and a curtain separated the sleeping area in the back. The small room, that was not very spacious to begin with, was used to its fullest. If more than three students came in, there wouldn’t even be room to stand.
Teacher Guan returned in less than two minutes, bringing the Dean of Instruction with her.
The dean was quite enthusiastic when he saw Yan Fei: "Yan Fei, welcome! You want to take your exams early? That’s a great thing! Yan Fei, you are balancing your entrepreneurial activities with your studies. This spirit should be learned by all our students! Don’t worry, our school will definitely support you. You don’t have to worry about anything else, just focus on taking the exam... oh yes, may I ask which school you plan on applying to?"
"If I can get admitted to our No.2 High School, that would be enough. I’m afraid I may not make it to other schools. Besides, even if I did get admitted, I wouldn’t have time to attend. It would be more convenient if the school was closer to home." Yan Fei replied.
It must be No.2 High School. This was the only place that knew and understood him well enough to tolerate his frequent absences. Any other school would have expelled him a thousand times over!
"No.2 High School is good, close to home, and everyone understands your situation. They might provide some favorable conditions for you..." The Dean of Instruction continued enthusiastically, then turned to Teacher Guan. "Xiao Guan! Yan Fei is an outstanding entrepreneur of our town. You need to take extra care of him. Provide as many conveniences as you can. It’s not easy for our school to produce such a talent..."
Yan Fei scoffed internally: What favorable conditions? Isn’t it just about facilitating my skipping of classes? Teacher Guan is much more down-to-earth than you!
Unable to resist speaking up for Teacher Guan, he said, "Teacher Guan has always been very supportive of me..."
After showering him with a lot of praises, the Dean of Instruction finally left. Yan Fei was puzzled and asked, "Teacher Guan, he said a lot, but will these two certificates I have actually help me get extra points?"
Teacher Guan laughed: "What do you think? If they could, he would have told you right away. There are probably no rules for it. Given his enthusiasm towards you, he will probably help you apply for it in the future. Maybe it could really work!"
"Ah... I hope so! If not, it’ll be a pity. I was thinking about getting more of these if they could give me extra points!" Yan Fei replied with a hint of regret.
Teacher Guan’s eyes widened: "Wasn’t this given to you because of your righteous act? How did it become something you ’asked’ for?"
"I have so many stories of righteous acts. Just last night I caught a truckload of oil thieves! If I want more awards, all I need to do is ask. There are also past awards that I didn’t collect. Whether it’s from the Armed Department or the Public Security Bureau, getting an award is quite easy. It’s such a pity, even with many awards and certificates, they are useless if they can’t help me get extra points!" Yan Fei said regretfully.
Listening to Yan Fei, Teacher Guan was both amused and intrigued: "So, you plan to make up for your lack of exam scores with these certificates, huh?"
Yan Fei unashamedly replied: "Why not? If a certificate could give me an extra ten or eight points, why would I ever need to take the exam? Once I get a little less busy after my company’s opening, I can easily get a bunch of random certificates. I just need to put my name on the paper and I can start school..."
With that said, it’s really true isn’t it? Bad behavior is always easier to adopt than good behavior. Even the usually righteous Yan Sanfen is considering underhanded tactics now!
In fact, the rules for obtaining bonus points on the High School Entrance Examination are generally locally regulated, and in many places, awards from heroic acts like Yan Fei’s could directly give extra points. It’s just that most ’ordinary people’ don’t know this - well, if everyone knew, wouldn’t everyone be able to get extra points?
"You’ve got some high hopes!" said Teacher Guan disdainfully. "Students should focus on their studies rather than resorting to crooked methods. You’re already a big boss and still dwelling on these things. Knowledge gained is always your own. Do you think that the school is like society, where you can use all sorts of underhanded methods to accomplish things? Here, only education matters, even if you are a big boss..."
Just as she was speaking, the Dean of Instruction walked in again, enthusiastically and excitedly saying to Yan Fei: "Yan Fei, I spoke directly to the principal of No.2 High School about your two awards. He said that given your progressive mindset, No.2 High school can admit you out of usual admitting criteria. Rest assured! You are already a pre-high school student. You don’t even have to take the exam. Just go to No.2 High School to register when the fall term begins!"
"What?" Not only was Teacher Guan gaping in surprise, but so was Yan Fei.
Did he just become a pre-high school student?
Are we too outdated, or has the world changed too quickly?
Seeing that Yan Fei was silent, the Dean of Instruction laughed: "Look, Yan Fei is so happy he can’t even speak. I knew it! Students with a progressive mindset like Yan Fei are welcome everywhere! However, you must not become complacent. You still need to continue with your studies..."
The Dean of Instruction left after his speech, leaving Yan Fei and Teacher Guan in stunned silence.
Yan Fei was the first to recover. He grinned at Teacher Guan, who was still looking incredulous, and said: "Teacher Guan, what do you think of my underhanded methods? Now I am already a pre-high school student!"
