Chapter 994: The Princess Returns to Qing University
Principal Yang had just opened his eyes in the morning when he realized that there were more than ten missed calls on his phone.
What leaders feared the most was such a situation. Usually, consecutive calls were basically big matters. In addition, it was a series of calls in the middle of the night. Principal Yang was immediately awake.
“There are only a few years left until retirement. You have to steady yourself,” Principal Yang muttered as he called back.
After returning all the calls, Principal Yang sat on the bed and smiled until the wrinkles on his face flattened.
“Aiyaya, this Xia Wanyuan is really a god.” Principal Yang turned off his phone and got out of bed. “Old woman, I’m not eating breakfast anymore. I’m going to school to work.”
Principal Yang found Xia Wanyuan, who was preparing for class, when he arrived at school. “Teacher Xia, how many papers did you submit?”
Xia Wanyuan thought for a moment. “More than thirty.”
“More than thirty?!” Principal Yang had an academic background when he was young. He knew that one thesis was enough to last him for a few years. These thirty plus papers were too exaggerated. “It’s too hard on you, Teacher Xia.”
“It’s alright.” Xia Wanyuan had studied the thesis research direction in her previous life.
Due to the lack of all sorts of ancient books in the future and the passage of time, there were many research gaps.
In her previous life, Xia Wanyuan had read hundreds of poems and books. The world’s famous scholars did not adhere to modern rigid thinking when teaching. Xia Wanyuan was influenced by them and naturally had her own unique understanding of many problems.
Hence, there was no need to polish a thesis for several years like others. To Xia Wanyuan, she could settle the content in one go.
In Principal Yang’s opinion, he only felt that Xia Wanyuan was being humble. “It’s been hard on you.”
Principal Yang imagined countless scenes of Xia Wanyuan working hard on her thesis. The way he looked at Xia Wanyuan was extremely loving. “I’ll give you more subsidies.”
“Alright, thank you, Principal.” Xia Wanyuan smiled and accepted Principal Yang’s kindness. No matter how she explained, Principal Yang felt that she was being modest, so Xia Wanyuan decided not to say anything.
“A lot of people called me this morning and said that they had recorded your thesis. A large group of people studied it overnight. They were shocked.” Speaking of this, Principal Yang was even happier. “Our Qing University is good at science and engineering and has always been mocked by Nancheng University in the humanities. Now, you’re suppressing them alone.”
The more Principal Yang thought about it, the happier he became. He hummed happily. “Alright, I’ll get busy first. Teach well.”
“Okay, thank you, Principal.” Xia Wanyuan nodded at the principal and watched him leave with light steps.
Since such a big thing had happened in the academic circle in Beijing, Nancheng University naturally received the news.
“What should we do? Didn’t you say that Xia Wanyuan is someone who fish for fame? Then why was her thesis included in the core journal?” The admissions office of Nancheng University was filled with people.
Nancheng University and Qing University were the top universities in China. Usually, the two families would fight for good students.
Last year, because of Xia Wanyuan, the recruitment situation of Nancheng University was not ideal. If Xia Wanyuan successfully became famous and returned to Qing University to teach literature, their admissions office would be collectively fired this year.
“Director Shang.” Someone finally spoke in the quiet office. “I have an idea. Let’s go to your office and talk in detail.”
Half an hour later, Director Shang finally walked out of the office with his people and whispered to the person beside him, “I have to ask the school leader about this. Go and move around first.”
“Okay.”
“Go on.”
That afternoon, Xia Wanyuan received an invitation from Nancheng University. Nancheng University offered an extremely high price to invite Xia Wanyuan to be their literature teacher.
Xia Wanyuan took a look and rejected them.
Receiving Xia Wanyuan’s rejection, Director Shang made up his mind and called Teacher Cheng, who was already heading to Beijing. “Go and look for Chief Editor Liu. If this matter is done, I’ll give you a raise next year.”
After hanging up, Director Shang was a little flustered. However, looking at the enrollment index in his hand, he had no choice.
He also knew that Xia Wanyuan’s husband was the head of the Jun Corporation, but if he could not complete the quota in his hand, he would lose his reputation as the director who had worked hard for half his life.
He could only hope that he could get through this without being discovered.
Principal Yang had asked the school to prepare the contract to hire Xia Wanyuan to return to Qing University for a long time. That day, Xia Wanyuan signed the contract.
At night, the official Weibo account of Qing University announced this good news to the public.
