Rich in the 70s: I Made a Rugged Veteran a Millionaire novel Chapter 26

Chapter 26: Chapter 26: Don’t You Dare Give Me a Bonus

"Isn’t that right, Principal Wang?"

Principal Wang reacted quickly.

In an era where honor is above all, how could he refuse a letter of thanks, but he still had to say what needed to be said.

"It’s just what we should do. Compared to the police comrades, what we’ve done is nothing."

"Principal Wang, if it weren’t for your courage and attention to detail, actively seeking solutions, there would have been many tragedies tonight."

"As long as the students are well, we are well; everyone serves the people."

"You’re right."

Principal Wang and Leader Tang were being modest with each other, while Jiang Cheng observed and learned from the side.

They are real masters!

After a round of procedural refusals, Principal Wang accepted the commendation letter from the Public Security Bureau, acting all calm.

"This student Jiang Cheng is very brave, calm and decisive with a good mind, indeed a great comrade."

Leader Tang turned to praise Jiang Cheng, and Principal Wang immediately perked up.

"Student Jiang Cheng is excellent, not only brave and decisive, but also intelligent and eager to learn, a very gifted student."

After a few compliments, they both looked at Jiang Cheng.

Jiang Cheng smiled lightly and said, "Thank you, Principal Wang and Leader Tang for your recognition. Please don’t give me any bonus."

Principal Wang: Underestimated her nerve.

Leader Tang: Did he say anything about giving a bonus?

But indeed the girl did a good deed and deserved some reward.

In the end, Jiang Cheng came out of the Public Security Bureau carrying an enamel basin.

The big red enamel basin contained a towel, a bar of soap, and a tube of toothpaste.

Principal Wang looked at the letter of thanks in his hand, feeling it seemed a bit less fragrant now?

"Principal, I was scared inside! Later, when I mentioned your name, their attitude improved a lot. Principal, you have face. If it weren’t for you, no one could have taken this letter away. This honor should belong to our night school."

Principal Wang suddenly felt fragrant again.

"Jiang Cheng, tell me first next time. I’m the principal, I’ll handle any problems!" 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

Principal Wang wasn’t stupid and understood Jiang Cheng didn’t inform him earlier because she was afraid things hadn’t happened yet, which might affect him.

But once things really did happen, Jiang Cheng didn’t seek credit, instead, she directly gave the credit and honor to the night school.

"Principal, you are noble."

Jiang Cheng praised once more, making Principal Wang laugh heartily, "You sure know how to talk!"

"Right? I should talk more then."

The way Jiang Cheng readily agreed made Principal Wang unable to suppress his smile.

Principal Wang and several parents waiting outside personally escorted Jiang Cheng back to the courtyard.

After going back to comfort Grandma Shen and the others, Jiang Cheng returned to her room to continue studying, going to bed on time, completely untroubled.

Other families were not so tranquil; the Public Security Bureau was brightly lit throughout the night.

Early the next morning, Jiang Cheng got up for exercise, study, and went to work.

She went straight to work at the recycling station, as usual.

Sister Wang often looked at Jiang Cheng with an aunt-like smile, making Jiang Cheng wonder: maybe her personal charm has been releasing a lot lately?

During lunch, Sister Wang finally couldn’t resist calling out to Jiang Cheng, saying softly, "Xiao Jiang, you’re impressive."

"Sister Wang, you need to elaborate."

"Hahaha! You—my Lao Tang saw you yesterday and said you acted heroically, don’t worry, I won’t say anything."

Sister Wang winked, and Jiang Cheng instantly understood.

Last night, Lao Tang, the well-connected Sister Wang.

It made sense.

Leader Tang and Sister Wang are a married couple.

Jiang Cheng immediately pretended to be slightly embarrassed and said, "Anyone who saw it would do the same."

Jiang Cheng guessed that Leader Tang didn’t mention the human trafficker, just vaguely referred to Jiang Cheng’s bravery.

Sister Wang nodded with a smile, and they went to the cafeteria for lunch together.
