No. 1 High School Affiliated with China Normal University.
The strongest high school in Xia Country, bar none.
This high school alone accounts for 30% of the students admitted to Qingbei every year.
100% admission rate to key universities.
The average teacher here has credentials equivalent to a 985 university in China or a prestigious Ivy League school abroad.
Even those under the 211 Plan find it almost impossible to become a teacher here.
(PS.: plan 211 is about 100 universities that have had a large investment from the government, world renowned 😉)
Therefore,
Every teacher here has their own pride.
Qi Lin.
I am honored to be a member of the No. 1 High School Affiliated with China Normal University.
Sitting in the air-conditioned room, he leisurely picked up the teacup filled with goji berries and took a comfortable sip.
"Huh~"
"It's interesting to watch these flowers of the motherland grow healthily."
Putting down the teacup, Qi Lin looked at the sunny, lively students outside the window, smiling and talking to himself.
"Sure enough, even a dog from the No. 1 High School Affiliated with China Normal University walks with its head held high. It's just a security guard, but he can be so snarky. Didn't you see a car coming? Open the gate quickly."
At this moment, a male voice interrupted Qi Lin's leisure time.
Qi Lin looked at the driveway with some displeasure.
A BMW X5 was parked there.
A handsome-looking man in a neat suit was looking at him indifferently.
"What is your job?"
Qi Lin always retaliates when he gets angry, so the other party just needed to be polite.
As soon as the man sarcastically called him a dog, Qi Lin suddenly felt angry.
"Chen Dongxi, math teacher of Class 1, Grade 3, at the No. 1 High School Affiliated with China Normal University. Please open the gate."
There was a hint of arrogance in the man's tone.
Every student at the No. 1 High School Affiliated with China Normal University is already an academic master.
Class 1, Grade 3, is the Rocket Class of the No. 1 High School Affiliated with China Normal University.
The students inside can even be called academic gods.
It is no wonder that Chen Dongxi is so proud to be the teacher of these exceptional students.
But Qi Lin also has his own temper.
He doesn't care who you are; if you dare to call him a dog, you won't have an easy time today.
Glancing at the name on Chen Dongxi's chest, Qi Lin smiled.
"Mr. Dumb, right? Where is your teacher's ID? Without identification, how can I know whether you're telling the truth or lying? What if you're a bad person with evil intentions trying to sneak into the school?"
Qi Lin said leisurely.
"Who are you calling dumb?"
Chen Dongxi's face darkened, and he gritted his teeth, staring straight at Qi Lin.
Qi Lin was stunned for a moment: "Isn't your name Chen Dongxi? Didn't you just say that? Or are you calling me a dog?"
"Ahem~"
Qi Lin's words were so vicious that Chen Dongxi was almost driven mad with anger.
This was also the first time he heard someone twist his name with such malicious intent.
"Watch your words. My name is Chen Dongxi, not 'Dumb!'"
Qi Lin curled his lips: "Mr. Dumb, please show me your teacher's ID."
(PS.: The Chinese wordplay our mc used involves a change in the tone of a word, twisting the name "Dongxi" (东溪) to sound like "Dàishǎ" (呆傻), which means something like "stupid" or "dumb." A good example would be Ben Dover, who could say Bend Over. By the way if there is any Ben Dover reading this book, I'm sorry buddy)
Chen Dongxi was also very angry at Qi Lin.
Normally, he would definitely punish this rude security guard.
But he had a meeting to attend that morning. If he were late, his image in the principal's mind would be damaged.
Reluctantly, he turned around and looked for his teacher's ID in his briefcase.
"Ding! A matching host has been detected, and the Protagonist Hunter system is being bound."
"Ding! A novice gift pack has been distributed. The host is rewarded with a novice gift pack."
Just as Qi Lin slightly raised the corners of his mouth, secretly laughing at his victory in this verbal argument, a mechanical sound suddenly appeared in his mind.
"Do you see clearly? This is my teacher's ID. I graduated as a top student from the University of California. I don't need to sneak in anywhere."
"It's not like someone who's obviously a security guard but acts like a big shot. Ridiculous."
Chen Dongxi, who had found his teacher's card, showed it to Qi Lin and said sarcastically.
Qi Lin originally wanted to retaliate angrily.
However, when he looked at the top of Chen Dongxi's head, he was stunned again.
He saw.
At some point, a bright golden exclamation mark had appeared above his head, spinning slowly.
This scene was like something out of an online game, as if an NPC was assigning a task.
"Damn! Did I really activate Goldfinger?"
Qi Lin screamed internally.
With a hint of expectation, he reached out and tapped the exclamation mark above Chen Dongxi's head.
"What are you doing?"
Seeing Qi Lin's outstretched hand, Chen Dongxi was startled and quickly shrank his head, thinking that Qi Lin was about to hit him.
"Ding!"
Something magical happened.
Qi Lin simply pointed his finger at the air above Chen Dongxi, and the exclamation mark jumped.
Then it expanded infinitely and turned into a block of text.
[Breaking news: Wang Yunzhi's stockings were accidentally torn. To avoid exposure, she stayed in the office until all the teachers had left and asked Chen Dongxi to bring her a new pair of black stockings.]
"Beep!"
"Beep! Beep!"
"What's going on up there? I'm still waiting to get to work!"
"Is the person in front an idiot? Why hasn't the first car moved?"
"A BMW X5? Big deal! I drive a Maybach. Why are you blocking traffic?"
It was now the morning rush hour, and the long traffic jam was causing frustration among the drivers behind.
Even though the security guard hadn't opened the gate, he was the one getting scolded.
Chen Dongxi angrily pointed at Qi Lin and said, "It's obviously the security guard who hasn't opened the gate. Are you all blind?"
Qi Lin was currently focused on exploring the system and wasn't in the mood to argue with "Dumb Xi."
He stopped bickering with Chen Dongxi and simply opened the gate.
As Chen Dongxi drove through, he coldly tossed a remark to Qi Lin: "I'm giving you a chance to apologize to me, or else you'll be doing this security job to the best of your ability."
