Chapter 638 - 316: What Are These Things? Golden Legend!

Afraid to open his eyes.

To be honest, the principal hoped it was just his imagination at this moment.

Swallowing nervously, he quickly explained to Yang Shu, "It’s not like that. Our school’s scholarship is given to students in need. I..."

"Students in need? You mean there are students poorer than this one at your school? You must be a great principal, not discriminating against poor families, willing to contribute to society."

Upon hearing this sarcastic tone, the audience in the live stream went wild with laughter.

"This is hilarious. The principal tried to pass the buck, but they didn’t even give him a chance."

"Tsk tsk tsk, scholarships are for students in need. I think this principal is confused and needs a demotion."

"Not to mention anything else, after today, I don’t know if the principal’s position will be affected, but this child’s homeroom teacher is likely to get fired."

"That’s a bit naïve. In today’s society, having connections is all that matters, even for small issues like this. Hahaha."

"..."

Originally having a favorable impression of Star River Middle School, Yang Shu now felt a lump in his throat.

A child who is skin and bones, eating only plain rice and free egg soup for a meal, and the school pays no attention!

Where has the school’s warmth gone? Is this how the school teaches and nurtures students?

This is utterly ridiculous!

Immediately, Yang Shu gave the principal another cold look.

The principal broke out in a cold sweat instantly and quickly promised, "I will personally oversee this student’s case and find out why he hasn’t received the scholarship. I will investigate today!"

"If the scholarship isn’t enough to support his daily life, I will personally, even if it means out of my own pocket, solve this child’s problem!"

Upon hearing this, Yang Shu’s expression eased slightly.

"Resolve this matter quickly! This should never happen again in the future!"

Hearing this, the principal immediately felt reassured, pulled out his phone, and made a call.

"Director Han, what’s going on? Do you still want to be a grade director?"

After putting down the phone, the principal bent slightly and asked with a beaming smile, "Student, what’s your name?"

"Wang Zihao."

"All right, got it." The principal nodded kindly, then picked up the phone and said in a low, cold voice:

"How could Wang Zihao’s living conditions be so difficult? How are you handling the students’ homework? Is he not eligible for the national scholarship!"

"Do you want to remain as the grade director? Bring his homeroom teacher to the first cafeteria, now! Immediately! Right away!"

"I want to see Wang Zihao’s scholarship processed immediately!"

On the other end of the line, the grade director was stunned: "Huh? Principal, I..."

Just as he started to speak, the principal hung up the phone swiftly, not giving him a chance to finish.

In the face of such petty tactics, Yang Shu merely raised his eyebrows without saying anything.

Not good!

The audience in the live stream all cried out in pity.

"It’s over! The leader’s words indicate this is the end of the matter, meaning the principal is off the hook again."

"Ah, I don’t want to see this. I don’t want to see the officials protecting each other. I want to see the principal getting what he deserves, sob sob."

"Please, let the storm be more violent, let the situation escalate. I’m so fed up with these scenes that I just want to see everyone tear each other apart and break the bureaucratic chain!"

"..."

Quickly, grade director Chen Xiao and homeroom teacher Guo Wen rushed over.

Guo Wen had been enjoying a cozy nap but was scolded by the grade director, then told that he must reach the cafeteria in ten minutes, or he wouldn’t be a homeroom teacher anymore.

Although he was bewildered, he had to rush to the cafeteria as quickly as possible.

Upon arriving, he immediately saw that student he disliked the most.

And then he spotted the principal.

In that instant, he could somewhat understand what was going on!

It must be Wang Zihao who upset the principal!

Guo Wen thought quickly, and his mouth was just as fast, immediately shouting angrily:

"Wang Zihao, what’s your problem!"

"You’re always the one causing the most trouble! When did I not process your scholarship? Didn’t I say I’d handle it for you?"

"Besides, reporting for scholarships requires complete documents, and you? According to the regulations, did the family documents you submitted suffice? Don’t you know yourself?"

"I even said, submit all the required documents and I’d immediately process the scholarship. I even argued with the school over this. Tell me, where have I wronged you!"

"Is it because I handled the matter impartially that you harbor resentment and are here making trouble!"

Disgusting!

Absolutely disgusting!

Hearing the homeroom teacher’s righteous words, the live stream audience felt nauseous.

"This homeroom teacher is something else. With a few words, he instantly turned the tables, making Wang Zihao appear to be the biggest villain here."

"Classic! Where did this moral paragon come from, standing on the moral high ground, pointing fingers, hahaha."

"Not to mention if the homeroom teacher’s words are true, just talking about this scholarship, it’s originally intended for children from impoverished families to have a decent meal.

This child may not have provided enough documents, but considering his daily expenses and his frailty, isn’t that enough?"

"..."

Whether the homeroom teacher’s words were true or not, they certainly affected Yang Shu’s perception.

His gaze fell on Wang Zihao again, and although the sympathy was still there, it was significantly reduced.
