Zhang Jianjun did indeed have an impression of Chen Yuan.
And this impression was deepened by the other's repeated challenges.
To the extent that, when thinking of No.11 High School, apart from He Hongtao, it was that kid named Chen Yuan who came to mind.
Zhang Jianjun had noticed the progress he made during this period.
Regarding Shi Yi treating him as a good friend, the two kids from No.1 High School also having a deep friendship with him, and even someone daring to engage in puppy love with him under the strict rules of No.4 High School, all these matters had gradually led Zhang Jianjun to develop a subtle enchantment toward the kid...
This Chen Yuan was like someone who had some sort of magic spell that could deeply attract people.
Take He Hongtao, for instance, who spoke of Chen Yuan as if he were talking about his own son, with a kind of fondness and pride that was frankly sickening.
A principal's affection for a disciple is understandable.
