The old man's surname is Xiao. He was dropped into our school to be the principal. Everyone calls him principal. No one calls him by his surname. This is almost a tacit understanding, because it's very strange to call him by his surname.
There were rumors that he had a strong background, but the old man had always kept a low profile. When he first came, many people were dissatisfied with this new principal, especially the director of the Education Bureau. He could have been promoted smoothly and sat on the throne of the principal, but who would have thought that another principal would be transferred over.
He was the most vehement among the opposition, but after the old man submitted the transformation plan in the name of the school, the director of the Education Bureau actually changed his mind and willingly helped the old man. As for what they talked about in private, other than themselves, no one else knew.
However, at that time, I felt that being parachuted to our school to be the principal was not a promotion, but a downward adjustment. Only the leaders of our school would be passionate about the position of principal.
After that, the old man patrolled the class. That was the first time I saw the old man up close other than the morning meeting. He gave people the feeling that he was very easy to get along with. At least, that was what I thought.
At that time, we didn't know that Yu, who transferred to the school at the same time, was the grandson of the old man. We only knew that the new transfer student was very good at his studies and could compete with Sunset.
The first time I came into contact with the old man was because of an accident when I was drawing in the library. At that time, I was just like usual, drawing architectural drawings alone in the library. Actually, that was an excuse I made to enjoy the peace of being alone. Therefore, the zither music and the sunset usually wouldn't appear at this time.
That day, the old man appeared in the library. He stood silently beside the bookshelf and watched me write and draw. When I raised my head and saw his smile, I didn't mind letting him continue reading. The old man saw that I didn't mind and actually sat down opposite me. This old man was really thick-skinned.
Later, he took the initiative to chat with me like a friend." Old man, you can read construction blueprints?”That was the first time I called him an old man, and I've been calling him that ever since.
Later on, he slowly realized that I knew how to speculate in stocks and took the initiative to let me operate the account. I thought at that time, are you afraid that I will make you lose all your money? However, there wasn't much money inside. At least, compared to now, it wasn't much.
When he realized that there was more money in his account, he became more and more like an old man or an old child. However, these were secrets between us.
The old man or me, there's an inexplicable trust between us…
……
I was very familiar with the old man's office. I basically came back to report once a day. If I didn't come, the old man would probably be unhappy. He would call me to the office through the teaching office. I believe that no one would be willing to be called by the teaching office. When I thought of the teaching office, the first thing I thought of was to accept punishment.
After knocking on the office door today, how long would it take for it to appear here again? I'm not sure, because I long to leave.
After standing for a while, he raised his hand and knocked on the door as if he was saying goodbye.
As usual, he knocked on the door until he heard a voice saying," Please come in!”
Pushing open the door, he swaggered in.”She didn't even look at him and just casually nestled on the sofa. She thought about the possibility of her leaving. It turned out that she also couldn't bear to part with this old man in front of her.
As expected, she heard the old man grumble as soon as she nestled in." You little girl, I'm the principal. Can't you be more polite?"”I shook my head as I spoke, but this complaint made my heart ache.
"Do I really need to be polite? Then I'll go out and wait for your summons.”As he spoke, he moved his butt and prepared to leave.
"Why did you take the initiative to enter my office today? Could it be that you have brought me some new discoveries?”The old man quickly changed the topic. He knew that I rarely came to his company because I had something to do. However, when I saw the old man's sparkling eyes, I could only facepalm.
"I just helped you build a building. Do you have to look like you've seen a treasure? Although this expression made me feel that it was precious, I didn't want to become a commodity and be appreciated by others.”I looked at him in amusement. The school was going to build a new school building. I was just playing tricks to help the old man get the funds from the government and helped him draw the design of the building. That drawing was as simple as setting up an oak stick, but the old man didn't think so. It made the old man look at me as if he was looking at the God of Wealth. He was helpless…
When the old man heard what I said, he looked as if he had seen a ghost. He was about to give a long speech. It was so boring that he even wanted to say that he was convinced. I quickly said,"By the way, old man, I've been suspended from school.”
"If you want to leave school, then so be it. Anyway, the three of you are already qualified to study abroad. I really don't understand why you are staying here. However, if you leave, our school's income will be much less.”The old man had a regretful expression.
"My personal account will lose even more, but who asked you to drop out of school? I don't remember giving such a notice.”The old man seemed to have thought of something.
" You should be worried about your personal account, old man. As for the school, doesn't it still have the government funding? What are you worried about? I've created so much profit for you. It's time to return my freedom.
Actually, the three of us have long been under the old man's special permission to flip through all of his good books in the school library cabinet. We have also obtained many academic certificates in private.
However, Melody and Sunset didn't know that I was helping the old man earn money to build a new building. The main reason was that I didn't want to scare them. After all, it was a little unbelievable for a high school student like me.
In fact, today is also thanks to my parents. After all, their oppression has allowed me to cultivate an indifferent and calm personality since I was young. This kind of calmness is very beneficial for stock trading. However, the old man couldn't help it every time.
"It was my father's decision!”
"Why don't I call your old man and discuss with them to let you continue coming to school?”The old man looked at me and asked.
If I really want to stay in school, this old man might come to my house to teach them. Usually, I would always mess around with the old man, but I knew very well that at a critical moment, the old man would be the first to stand up and help me. That was enough.
"There's no need! Anyway, you have enough money. I'll stop for a while and wait for my arrangements before I can continue to help you. Just wait!”It was better not to tell the old man about being sold, but he should know soon. After all, Yu was his grandson. Besides, the principal was not that useless.
"Old man, hurry up. I still have things to do!”Seeing him dawdling, I urged him.
"Sigh, I really can't do anything to you. You should also consider my age. Old people should take things slowly. You have to come back often to see an old man.”In the end, the old man was a little dejected. After spending so much time together, it would be a lie if he did not have any feelings for her.
"Don't worry. Even if I'm not here, I'll still help you earn money.”She said with a smile. It was just that the account was stopped. What was the matter? However, he was really a little reluctant.
"Girl, what are you thinking? If you don't come back to see me, my old man will really be very sad!”As I signed, I curled my lips. I often felt that the old man was like an old child.
"Okay, okay, got it!" Speechless, he stopped the old man from continuing to complain.
Seeing that the old man was done, he said," Oh right, old man. I guess we won't be meeting much in the future. I won't go back to the classroom. Ask your precious grandson to go to the Broken Bridge too. I'll wait for the sunset and the zither music there later."”
The old man's precious grandson Yu is also one of his good friends. He's on par with Sunset in class. On the surface, they seem to be sworn enemies, but because of my relationship, they're also good friends in private.
The old man looked at me meaningfully and called the Education Bureau to recall his precious grandson.
I didn't notice the old man's expression as I was thinking about other things. Even if I did, I wouldn't understand what that meaningful gaze meant.
