Jiang Cheng quickly connected the dots in her mind and discreetly pulled Principal Wang aside, speaking to him in an unnoticed corner.
"Principal, the training was your idea. After the human trafficking incident last time, you thought night school students should not only have extensive knowledge but also strong physiques."
"Huh? Isn’t this lying?"
Jiang Cheng disagreed, saying, "How is it lying? Aren’t we out here for training?"
"Yes!"
"Did we not rescue the fire at the first moment?"
"Yes!"
Jiang Cheng confidently said, "That’s right. You’ve done what needed to be done, and now we’re just changing the narrative. No matter who asks, say it this way, and I guarantee you we’ll receive the title of advanced unit."
Principal Wang didn’t understand the connection, but instinctively trusted Jiang Cheng and asked, "Is there any real use in getting the advanced unit title?"
"With the honor, applying for more funding from the leaders becomes much easier, doesn’t it?"
Principal Wang’s eyes suddenly lit up.
Oh, right!
The night school in the neighboring city gets more funding every year, all because of a "title"!
"Jiang Cheng, I’ll follow your advice."
After getting Principal Wang’s assurance, Jiang Cheng stood honestly by the side.
Principal Wang: Who is this girl planning to fool now??
Ten minutes later, Principal Wang watched Jiang Cheng organize the teachers and students, having them run the training back to night school.
"Please trouble Teacher Hu to organize. The new exercises for all subjects are on my desk."
"Class heads, ensure headcounts are accurate, coordinate with teachers for proper learning arrangements. Thank you all for your hard work."
With just a few words, the teachers and students were very cooperative, responsibly lining up, and orderly jogging back to night school.
Leader Tang unknowingly stood beside Principal Wang.
"Aren’t you the principal?"
Principal Wang, with hands behind his back, said in a manner befitting a teacher: "Knowing people and using them well is the way of a leader."
After speaking, Principal Wang nodded with profound meaning.
How right he was!
Jiang Cheng sure knows how to use him!
Even when there’s pretending to be done, it’s left for him!
Leader Tang, upon hearing Principal Wang’s words, nods in agreement. Well said.
After arranging the night school personnel, Jiang Cheng ran up to Principal Wang and said, "Principal, everything’s arranged as per your instructions."
"Well done."
Principal Wang responded in an ostentatious manner.
Leader Tang, observing this, confirmed his previous thoughts: Principal Wang is indeed a true educator.
With the night school people leaving, Jiang Cheng and Principal Wang went to the police station for the investigation.
The two underwent questioning, their answers almost identical: training to strengthen physique, accidental encounters.
They weren’t suspected of anything, but as they prepared to leave, Jiang Cheng was called back.
Sister Kong wanted to see her.
"To see me?"
Jiang Cheng was truly surprised.
While she was contemplating, three people entered the police station, among whom was a familiar face.
"Jiang Cheng?"
"Uncle Zhong?"
At that moment, Uncle Zhong once again returned to the resolute state they were in upon first meeting.
