Bill left the principal's office in a daze and returned to his own office.
"Bill, you're back? How did it go? Is the principal going to fire Jake?" Jason and Hillary immediately surrounded Bill as soon as he entered the office. They had been aware of Bill's intention to report Jake to the principal, and they believed that Jake's teaching position would be at risk.
"Yeah, that disruptive element Jake is finally going to be fired. Our office will return to its peaceful state, all thanks to Bill," said Hillary.
"Absolutely, Bill has rid the school of a major problem. He deserves praise and recognition from the school," added Jason.
"Jake being fired is a cause for celebration. How about we go out together tonight?" suggested Hillary.
"Indeed, Kailomen would be great. Ever since we went there last time, I've been reminiscing about it and thinking about when we could go again," said Jason.
As soon as Bill returned to the office, Jason and Hillary approached him. Because they knew about Bill's plan to report Jake to the principal, they believed that Jake's job was in jeopardy. Seeing that Bill was back, they congratulated him and even thought about celebrating the outcome.
Jason and Hillary had been eager to go to Kailomen, a restaurant they had always wanted to visit. They thought this was a perfect opportunity to ask Bill while he was in a good mood. They believed he wouldn't refuse and would treat them to a meal at Kailomen.
"What the hell! Do you two have money? All you think about is eating and drinking. Do you have the means to go to a place like Kailomen? Get the hell out of here!" Bill, already annoyed, couldn't stand their words.
Weren't these two idiots able to see that Bill was in a difficult situation? If Bill had succeeded in getting rid of Jake, then maybe Bill could have treated them to a meal to celebrate. But now, not only did Bill fail to get Jake fired, but he also had to make a call to Jake to convey the school's intentions. This made Bill's arrogance unbearable, and he would not hold back his anger.
Originally, Jason and Hillary were joyfully celebrating with Bill's return, but Jason's outburst left them confused. What did he mean? Was he not happy after getting rid of Jake? Did something unexpected happen?
Jason and Hillary, although embarrassed by Bill's scolding, dared not show any anger on their faces. They did not want to provoke Bill further.
David, who was observing from the side, felt relieved. He had considered congratulating Bill as well, but he had a good impression of Jake. With Jake gone, he felt a bit uncomfortable, so he decided not to "congratulate" Bill. Now, seeing the situation, he felt his decision was wise.
Jason and Hillary left with dejected expressions, not daring to ask Bill what was going on.
"Come back!" Bill's voice rang out, and they immediately stopped in their tracks and looked at Bill.
"You two go and call Jake. Tell him that the school fully supports his actions and that he shouldn't have any concerns. The school will also publicize his actions to all students," Bill said with an extremely unpleasant expression on his face.
Bill obviously didn't want to make the call himself, so he was preparing to delegate the task to someone else. However, saying this out loud in front of everyone still made him feel very displeased.
"What?" Jason and Hillary were stunned by Bill's words, their faces full of surprise.
What was going on? Wasn't the school supposed to fire Jake? How come they weren't firing him now and even seemed to approve of his actions?
"What are you standing there for? Are you deaf? Go and do it!" Bill snapped.
"Oh, we'll do it right away," Jason and Hillary hurriedly responded.
At this moment, Jason and Hillary finally understood why Bill's expression was so unpleasant and why he was in such a bad mood. It turned out that not only was Jake not fired, but the school also intended to publicize and commend him. Considering Bill's attitude towards Jake, it was quite normal for him to react this way.
However, both Jason and Hillary were puzzled. They couldn't understand why the school didn't fire Jake, especially with the video of the fight and Bill's testimony adding fuel to the fire. Instead, the school wanted to commend him.
David, who was also present, shared the same confusion, but he felt somewhat relieved that Jake wasn't fired. He had a good impression of Jake, but because of his relationship with Bill, he didn't want to get too close to Jake.
Jason and Hillary tried to avoid responsibility for making the call and eventually decided to have Hillary make the call. Shortly after they made the call, Verna arrived at the office.
As Verna entered the office, she felt a bit puzzled. Why was the office unusually quiet today? Even Jason and Hillary, the sycophants, seemed to be uncharacteristically subdued. Usually, this was the time when they would eagerly show off.
Although she didn't know what was going on, Verna found it quite pleasant. At least, she didn't have to listen to the two flatterers buzzing around her like flies. It was a peaceful moment for her.
On the other end of the phone, Jake was equally puzzled. He didn't expect Hillary to call him, and he definitely didn't anticipate the school's attitude towards him.
Initially, Jake thought that getting into a fight in public, although there were reasons for it, would have a negative impact. Especially with many students present at the scene, he had prepared himself to be called in for a reprimand, warning, or even to be fired.
However, none of that happened. The school didn't fire him; instead, they wanted to commend him and set him as an example. This was far beyond his expectations.
"These leaders at Princeton University are really something else, not as rigid as I thought," Jake pondered for a long time but couldn't fully understand the situation. He could only attribute it to the wisdom of the school leadership.
Although Jake didn't know exactly what was going on, he considered it a good thing. Jake didn't return to his accommodation after leaving the school. Instead, he searched online for an archery club and took a taxi directly there.
In the gaming world, Jake also a temporary soldier, Although a logistician. but he could still encounter danger and even the possibility of going to the battlefield. In order to survive and excel, Jake felt he needed to be well-prepared.
