The other professors understood Principal Zhao's intention, and Professor Wen, of course, knew it as well.
What an embarrassment!
He, the deputy director of the Biological Chemistry Department, had just finished boasting about how he would bully Shen Qiang, only to have everything he said rejected by Principal Zhao. It would have been one thing if Shen Qiang were some top figure in the medical field—losing to someone of higher status wouldn't be too shameful, but who was Shen Qiang?
Nothing more than a graduate student still in school!
Grinding his teeth and with nowhere to hide his face, Professor Wen turned to leave.
At this moment, Shen Qiang laughed. Although he wasn't quite sure who this Principal Zhao really was, one thing was certain: Principal Zhao seemed to have some understanding of Shen Qiang's situation and had quite obviously come forward to back Shen Qiang up.
