Chapter 132: Substitution

When Liu Qin heard about the joint letter incident in the class, she was stunned.

She didn't expect that the students in her class agreed with her on this matter and all wanted to change their history teacher.

But these kids are really... reckless.

A joint letter was delivered to the principal's mailbox, leaving no room for maneuver.

Yin Xiangyu couldn't save face and would definitely put all the problems on the students.

It is also difficult for the school to set such a precedent - if students in other classes follow suit and are dissatisfied with a teacher, they can send a joint letter to the principal to replace the teacher, and the whole school will be in chaos.

Despite this, Liu Qin was happy inside.

Because these children know how to fight for their rights and know that they need to change teachers to improve their grades.

In front of the principal, Liu Qin of course gave Yin Xiangyu some face.

"Alas, these kids are so childish, reckless and ignorant." Liu Qin said in front of Yin Xiangyu, "Teacher Yin is a very experienced teacher. Everyone in the school knows that. They don't know how to appreciate the blessings they have."

After hearing what Liu Qin said, Yin Xiangyu's expression looked a little better.

"Hey, Teacher Liu, I'm not saying this, but in all my years of teaching, this is the first time I've encountered students like yours."

"It's mainly the students in our class. They're all very motivated, so please be understanding," Liu Qin said immediately. "They must be dissatisfied with their history grades, which is why they did something so irrational."

Yin Xiangyu: "Are they dissatisfied with their own results? I think they have a problem with me as a person!"

"How could that be?" Liu Qin continued, "It's normal for one or two students to have a problem with you. No teacher can please all their students. But you're so outstanding, so surely most students won't have a problem with you."

Yin Xiangyu suddenly didn't know how to respond.

If she denies it, she is denying her own excellence.

If they agree, then what's the deal with this joint letter? !

Liu Qin knew when to stop. As long as she could frame the matter as a student being dissatisfied with his or her grades, it would be easy to handle. She couldn't let Yin Xiangyu turn the matter into a personal grudge between the students of Class 3 and her, otherwise it would turn from a matter of justice into a personal grudge.

Liu Qin took the opportunity to suggest, "Teacher Yin is also the homeroom teacher for Class 4, and it's very tiring. I feel bad for you. I'm really sorry that our students did something like this. Why don't we change our history teacher? Let these kids know the difference and realize how good you are."

Yin Xiangyu looked at Liu Qin in disbelief. She didn't expect that Liu Qin would actually dare to propose changing the history teacher at this time.

-

Lu Yanhe estimated that tonight would be a sleepless night for many people in the school.

Especially for Yin Xiangyu.

Perhaps, since she started teaching, she has never been jointly complained by students in a class about her poor teaching. This is an unbearable shame for any teacher.

Lu Yanhe thought that since things had gotten to this point, it would probably be difficult to end it peacefully.

In fact, after Yin Xiangyu ran to Class 3 and started cursing, the school had to change their teacher even if they didn't want to.

Otherwise, what will happen to the parents?

The teacher has gone to class to scold the students for being ungrateful. If you don't change them, which parent of a senior high school student can feel at ease?

I drank all the water in the cup.

Lu Yanhe went out with a cup to pour water. As soon as he left the room, Yan Liang and Li Zhibai came back.

It's already half past ten at night.

Yan Liang and Li Zhi both looked exhausted.

"We practiced very late today."

"I'm so exhausted," Li Zhibai said. "I don't know why we have to practice such a difficult dance. I haven't learned it in a whole day."

Lu Yanhe knew them both very well and immediately asked, "Yan Liang should have learned it by now, right?"

When it comes to learning dance, Yan Liang works much harder and puts more effort into it than Li Zhibai.

Yan Liang said, "It's not cooked yet."

That's it.

Lu Yanhe glanced at Li Zhibai with disdain.

Li Zhibai immediately exploded, "Fuck, what are you looking at?"

"A look of contempt." Lu Yanhe laughed.

Yan Liang held up his phone and asked, "Old Lu, something seems to have happened in your class again? My class group is buzzing again."

Lu Yanhe asked in surprise, "Has this spread again?"

"I heard your history teacher was yelling really loudly in your class, and it spread all over," Yan Liang said. "Someone even posted a recording in our class group. It seems someone secretly recorded your history teacher going on a rampage. I just listened to it in the car, and the yelling was pretty excessive."

Lu Yanhe sighed and said, "Today, our class wrote a joint letter to the principal, asking to change our history teacher, and she got mad."

"Huh?!" Li Zhibai's exhausted expression instantly vanished as he started gossiping. "You guys are stirring up trouble! You even wrote a joint letter requesting a teacher change? Holy crap, you guys are amazing!"

Li Zhibai was so excited that he seemed to be depressed about why he was not involved in such things.

Lu Yanhe said, "What can we do? I've never met such a terrible teacher. We're already in our third year of high school, and no one wants a teacher like her to hold us back—especially since she's deliberately being awful and perfunctory in our class, while she's constantly pushing us in and giving us special treatment in her own class. It's clear she's deliberately trying not to let us do as well as her class on the test."

"Damn, he's so cunning." Li Zhibai was shocked.

Yan Liang said, "The school forum will probably remain closed forever. So many things have happened in your class recently, all of which are big news that will blow up the forum."

"Some people have already moved to Tieba and posted a lot of messages," Lu Yanhe said. "These days, you can't shut down a forum and shut people down."

Yan Liang asked, "Will this incident have a significant impact on you?"

"There will definitely be an impact, but with such a big uproar, I'm guessing at least the teacher will be successfully replaced," Lu Yanhe said. "In fact, as long as we can achieve this goal, our purpose will be achieved."

"I can't help but wonder how bad your history teacher is."

"It's just like the time when Li Zhibai participated in the real estate developer's performance and slacked off." Lu Yanhe gave an example.

Yan Liang was shocked and stared: "Are you just slacking off like that?"

Li Zhibai said, "Hey, hey, can you two just stay away from me when you say that? I went to participate in my competitor's performance and performed very hard, didn't I?"

Lu Yanhe and Yan Liang laughed out loud.

Suddenly there was a knock on the door.

It’s Cheng Hai coming over.

He said, "The audition results for 'The Golden Age' are out, Lu Yanhe, you got the role."

"Huh?" Lu Yanhe was stunned, and seemed inexplicably surprised. "Really?"

Cheng Hai nodded and said, "I heard it in Zhou Ping'an's office today."

"Congratulations! We have to treat you to a meal." Li Zhibai said immediately.

Lu Yanhe laughed and said, "Who knows if I can pull it off? It's too early to tell."

Cheng Hai thought Lu Yanhe didn't believe him, so he emphasized, "I heard it with my own ears. You are the one who was chosen."

-

Meanwhile, Zhou Ping'an, with a worried look on his face, asked on the phone, "Boss Ma, what should we do? Director Luo specifically asked for Lu Yanhe. I tried to push for Yan Liang and Cheng Hai, but to no avail. Jiang Yuqian also refused to agree to push for someone else."

Vice President Ma said nothing on the other end of the phone.

Zhou Ping'an looked melancholy and depressed, but he felt no pressure at all in his heart.

Anyway, Vice President Ma was there the whole time during the audition. If he couldn't handle it, what could a small agent like him do?

Vice President Ma was silent for a long time before saying, "Haven't you already signed a termination agreement with Lu Yanhe? Anyway, he'll be done with us after he takes the college entrance exam in June. You're dragging your feet on Luo Yuzhong first and not signing a performance agreement with them. By June, Lu Yanhe will no longer be a contracted actor with our company."

"Then can he still sign a contract with The Golden Era as an individual? He can still act."

"It's not us who let him act. If he terminates his contract with us, how can we still control him?"

Zhou Ping'an was suddenly startled.

Vice President Ma himself may not have realized it, but Zhou Ping'an heard a meaning from what Vice President Ma said.

The person who really dislikes Lu Yanhe and doesn't want him to stay in the company is not Vice President Ma.

From the way he spoke, it seemed that as long as Lu Yanhe was kicked out of the company, the rest of the story would have nothing to do with him.

Who asked Vice President Ma to do this?

Zhou Pingan put aside this question and said, "So, is this matter just going to be delayed?"

"Just hold off. What else can we do?" Vice President Ma said, "Do you have the ability to convince Luo Yuzhong to change his mind?"

"I don't have the ability to do that, but if we really don't want this to happen, there are certainly ways to make it impossible." After Zhou Ping'an figured out Vice President Ma's true attitude towards Lu Yanhe, he felt that he could get some benefits from this matter. "They're asking for a salary that is not worth it to Lu Yanhe at all, or they're asking for a buy-one-get-two-free deal. Director Luo can use Lu Yanhe, but he must also arrange a role for Cheng Hai and Yan Liang in his new drama. Either Luo Yuzhong really wants Lu Yanhe and agrees to our conditions, or this thing will fall through. It's not that we don't agree to Lu Yanhe playing the role, it's that Luo Yuzhong and the others are unwilling to agree to this condition."

Vice President Ma pondered for a moment, then laughed and said, "You really have a solution, kid. Let's do it this way. Of course, it would be best if we can ruin this matter."

-

Lu Yanhe waited for a whole night, but Zhou Pingan didn't tell him about this.

No matter what, Zhou Pingan is his agent now.

Once a role is secured, the agent has the obligation to inform his or her artist of the result.

The next morning, Lu Yanhe sent a message to Zhou Ping'an: "Brother Ping'an, I heard I got the role in 'The Golden Era.' Although my contract with the company ends next June, will the company still take care of this matter? Or do I need to communicate with Director Luo myself?"

Afterwards, he sent another message to Jiang Yuqian: Sister Yuqian, good morning. I heard from others that I got a role in "The Golden Age". Thank you for recommending me. I will work hard.

It was only half past six in the morning, and Lu Yanhe didn't expect them to reply immediately.

Just as he sent the message, the bus arrived at the station.

He got out of the car and walked towards the school.

"Student Lu Yanhe." A familiar voice sounded.

Lu Yanhe looked back in surprise and saw Su Su.

He changed into a suit and still looked handsome. He didn't look like a teacher, but more like a white-collar worker in a company.

There are very few teachers who dress so well and meticulously.

"Mr. Su, good morning." Lu Yanhe was even more surprised when he saw him.

He was very surprised to have met this person for three consecutive days.

Su Su asked: "Do you come to school so early every day?"

"Yeah." Lu Yanhe nodded. "Teacher Su is here early too."

"It's always good for new people to come early." Su Su smiled, "But it seems that we are really destined to be together."

"Huh?" Lu Yanhe looked at him in confusion, not understanding why he suddenly said that. Was it just because they met at the school gate for two consecutive mornings?

Su Su said, "It seems like I might become your class's history teacher."

???

Lu Yanhe widened his eyes in surprise.

"Your class did something big yesterday, and the teachers' group was in an uproar," Su Su said. "Everyone is talking about it. Now everyone knows that you applied to change your history teacher, and Teacher Yin herself refuses to teach your class anymore."

Lu Yanhe asked, "So... has the school decided to change?"

"The principal will talk to Teacher Yin again today. You are the senior class, and at this critical moment, it's best not to change. Otherwise, you'll have to spend time getting used to the new teacher." Su Su said, "Besides, after something like this happened, no other history teacher would be willing to take over your class. Taking over your class at this time would be a direct slap in the face of Teacher Yin. She's a veteran of our school, and no one would be willing to offend her easily."

"Then Teacher Su, are you willing to take it?"

"It doesn't matter whether I'm willing or not. I'm the newcomer. If no one else is willing, then I'll definitely take it in the end." Su Su said with a smile, "Of course, privately speaking, I'm also happy to do it. The more times like this, the more challenging it is, isn't it?"

"These are a group of senior high school students, and the results of a subject are crucial to everyone." Lu Yanhe originally wanted to say, "We are not your experimental subjects for challenging yourself," but in the end he was too embarrassed to say it directly.

However, Su Su seemed to understand the real meaning behind his euphemism.

"I dare to challenge, of course, because I have the strength to do so." Su Su's gentle and elegant temperament, which he had always maintained in front of Lu Yanhe, finally revealed some strong self-confidence and enterprising attitude.

Lu Yanhe didn't know how to respond to this.

He felt that this state between self-confidence and immaturity was really difficult to grasp.

"Teacher Su, do you think we are wrong to do this?" He decided to change the subject and asked.

"From your perspective, it's certainly correct," Su Su said without hesitation. "Many teachers don't approve of what Teacher Yin did. Some have long said that what Teacher Yin did was very unkind. When I arrived at the History Research Group yesterday, someone mentioned this to me. I didn't expect it to blow up tonight."

"I thought from your teacher's perspective, you would think we are disrespectful to teachers."

"You don't have to go to that extreme," Su Su said. "We've all been students before, and everyone understands how unfortunate it is to have a bad teacher. I admire you for having the courage to point it out."
