Rich in the 70s: I Made a Rugged Veteran a Millionaire novel Chapter 24

Chapter 24: Chapter 24: Fooled Until Limp

Night school, Principal’s office, the door is open.

After Jiang Cheng dialed the number, she was finally connected to the textile factory after a wait.

The operator on duty ran to fetch Jian Yueer’s father.

Jian Yueer’s father, the production director at the textile factory, thought something major had happened, rushed over in slippers, panting.

The phone rang, Jiang Cheng answered it.

"Hello, is this Comrade Jian, Jian Yueer’s father?"

"What’s wrong with Yue Er?"

"Yue Er is fine. Uncle Jian, hello, I am Yue Er’s classmate, Jiang Cheng. There’s something I need to discuss with you."

"Yue Er said... someone... Although we can’t trouble the police based on speculation, I believe the safety of girls is more important, and we shouldn’t ignore it. It’s better for the parents to take action, without everyone being happy, if there’s really trouble, we won’t be passive either."

It was the first time Jian Yueer’s father heard about this. As a director with leadership skills, he strongly agreed with Jiang Cheng’s words.

"Uncle Jian, I have an immature suggestion. Do you think it would work if we do this..."

A few minutes later, they hung up the phone, and Jiang Cheng dialed another number.

At the same time, the second class began.

Math teacher Yu came in holding a stack of ink-stained test papers, his blackened fingertips picked up the chalk, his eyes fell on Jiang Cheng’s desk.

"Report to the teacher, Jiang Cheng has a stomach ache and went to the bathroom."

Jian Yueer raised her hand and told a small lie.

Math teacher Yu nodded, "Sit down, today we’ll have a small test, with a total of ten questions. After you finish, we’ll correct and explain them directly."

"Come, pass it to the back."

The teacher handed the test paper to the first person, and the classroom began to answer the questions.

Sun Jiandong glanced over the test paper briefly and confidently looked at Jiang Cheng’s empty seat.

I will surpass Jiang Cheng, starting with this test.

Half an hour later, Teacher Yu collected the papers. After reviewing them on the spot, he handed them back to the class, ready to explain the questions.

"Not bad, Comrade Sun Jiandong has made quick progress, only one question wrong, very good."

Teacher Yu rarely praised Sun Jiandong.

"Report to the teacher, but Jiang Cheng hasn’t come back yet."

Sun Jiandong looked at the math teacher and said, "Jiang Cheng said she’s learning seriously, but in my view, she publicly skipped class, deliberately missing the exam."

Teacher Yu glanced at Jiang Cheng’s seat.

Jiang Cheng had predicted correctly!

While waiting for the call to transfer, Jiang Cheng went and took a leave from the office.

When she took the leave, she said: She has good relationships, there will be people helping her to come up with reasons for a leave, and there will be people caring about her attendance.

"Comrade Sun Jiandong, Jiang Cheng took leave from me."

Sun Jiandong was surprised.

How can he compare scores with her now that she took leave?

He did so well this time.

"Teacher, I suggest arranging a makeup test for Jiang Cheng?"

Teacher Yu said evasively, "No need for a makeup test, it’s not a formal exam, just a few questions."

Sun Jiandong looked displeased.

"Teacher, Jiang Cheng and I have a learning competition. Please don’t be biased towards Comrade Jiang Cheng."

Biased?

Math teacher Yu shook his head and sighed.

Really didn’t know how to appreciate kindness, insisting on walking right into trouble.

"Comrade Sun Jiandong, the test paper in your hand was provided by Jiang Cheng. She wrote the questions, composed the test paper, handled the photocopying, and made the answers herself. Any problems?"

The words spoken by math teacher Yu replayed in Sun Jiandong’s mind, over and over.

The proud expression on his face shattered like a piece of glass, breaking into pieces.

So, the scores he was proud of were based on questions Jiang Cheng wrote?
