YM778.TV Chapter 152
Wen Qing was so nervous that her heart jumped to her throat. She looked at him. This guy, why did he go back on his word?
Looking at Wen Qing\'s shocked expression, Huo Tingshen snickered in his heart: "Previously, she was more casual than this when she was giving my Fourth Bro supplementary lessons."
Wen Qing was relieved.
Principal Peng also laughed: "So our Teacher Wen is a man of character, meeting anyone is very casual."
Wen Qing smiled.
A man of character? It was all thanks to the Principal Peng that he was able to think of this phrase.
She was clearly because she was poor.
The waiter brought over the menu, and the Principal Peng passed the order to Huo Tingshen.
Huo Tingshen naturally handed the menu over to Wen Qing: "You order."
Wen Qing\'s heart tensed up again as she looked at him.
Huo Tingshen smiled, "Ladies first."
Wen Qing frowned. This guy was doing this on purpose.
She said with a serious face: "Third Young Master Huo, I have been too poor ever since I was young. I have never come to this kind of place to eat, and I don\'t know what is delicious here, or what isn\'t, so ordering dishes is definitely not a good idea."
Seeing Wen Qing looking straight into Huo Tingshen\'s eyes, Ye Zichen felt a
oyed.
The Principal Peng tensed up a little and stood up to take the menu: "San Ye, how about this, I\'ve come for this a few times, I\'ll order a few dishes on behalf of Xiao Wen, do you think?"
It could be seen that Principal Peng was very careful in front of Huo Tingshen.
Huo Tingshen made a gesture of invitation politely.
Principal Peng began to order while reading the menu.
Under the table, Huo Tingshen\'s toes poked forward a few times and touched Wen Qing\'s feet.
Wen Qing was extremely nervous. Embarrassed, she cleared her throat and drew back her feet.
Huo Tingshen snickered. This girl had a guilty conscience.
Principal Peng ordered and when he raised his head, he saw Huo Tingshen drinking tea and smiling.
Principal Peng said: "San Ye seems to be in a good mood today."
"I\'ve been in a good mood every day," he said, his voice sharper than before.
"Lord San is right, I mean ??" "Today seems to be especially good."
Huo Tingshen replied indifferently: "I won\'t be sharing some private matters with the Principal Peng."
Principal Peng smiled apologetically: "I spoke too much."
Hearing the conversation between the two, Wen Qing, who was at the side, was a little puzzled. The older Principal Peng seemed to be purposely trying to curry favor with Huo Tingshen.
Huo Tingshen\'s current attitude was completely different from before her.
Huo Tingshen looked at Principal Peng, "Principal Peng has called me here today because you have something to say, right?"
"Hey, I actually just wanted to use this opportunity to thank Lord Third. Lord Third recommended me so strongly that I have my place today. I should be treating him to a meal."
"If that\'s all, then Principal Peng is too polite."
"Also... I have just taken over the affairs of the Northern Academy and found many problems. I wanted San Ye to give me a hand. "
"Speak."
"All these years, Lin Youle led a lot of scientific research projects to the school, but these projects had to be put on hold because of the money. In addition, the matter of the new student dormitory had long been set on the agenda. However, after doing some accounting, the Finance Department was indeed unable to come up with that much money.
Initially, this was all a problem left behind by the old principal during his tenure of office. I could have just gone through it all over again, but... "With this belief in serving the students, I feel that I should continue doing things that benefit the children. It\'s just that, this funding problem is really ??"
Huo Tingshen smiled, picked up the cup, and sipped on it: "So, Principal Peng brought the school\'s most beautiful female teacher to publicize me today?"
Wen Qing blushed. This guy, why is he saying everything he wants to say?
Peng Aiguo was also a bit embarrassed and said, "Master San, you are serious. I think that Master San is smart and wise, so I want you to give me an idea. There are so many children in the school. If I can carry out some scientific research projects, it will be very beneficial to their future development.
Little Wen just went from being a student to being a counselor. She should be able to understand how beneficial it is for the school\'s development to have scientific research projects. Little Wen, do you want to share your thoughts? "
Wen Qing hesitated. Just now, Peng Aiguo\'s idea of asking Huo Tingshen for money was already so obvious.
If she spoke now, wouldn\'t that be to help ask for money?
"En, if you want to talk about beauties, then they are indeed more persuasive. Why don\'t Teacher Wen share your thoughts?"
Wen Qing was silent for a moment, then looked at Peng Aiguo: "Principal Peng, I am just a normal counselor, and do not understand the way the school operates. But I do approve of your idea, to conduct scientific research in the school, if you produce results, it would be of great benefit to both the school and the students.
However, the truth is that not many people can actually spend money on research projects. Most of it has been used by the school\'s leaders to reimburse them for all their expenses.
Wen Qing\'s words made Principal Peng\'s face turn ugly.
"I\'ve just entered the school for a job. I don\'t know much about the specifics, but I feel it\'s necessary to thoroughly investigate the problem you\'re talking about."
Huo Tingshen, who was at the side, had a sharp look in his eyes, but he only lowered his head to drink his tea.
If he didn\'t know about these things, would he start raising research funds as soon as he took office?
Wen Qing didn\'t think too much about it and said, "I feel that since there are companies that are willing to raise research funds for the school, we should be responsible for their trust in us. At the very least, we should let the company know where all the research funds are spent."
The Principal Peng spoke in a deep voice. He glanced at Wen Qing and then said to Huo Tingshen, "I also agree with what Little Wen said. Come, Little Wen, go pour a cup of wine for San Ye. We can drink and talk at the same time."
Wen Qing frowned. Why do you want me to pour some wine? It\'s not like she is here to accompany the wine.
Seeing Wen Qing\'s reaction, the Principal Peng said anxiously, "Child, you were scared silly to ask you to pour wine for a powerful figure like San Ye?"
Wen Qing stood up and poured some wine for Huo Tingshen before returning to her seat.
Huo Tingshen raised his glass and smiled. "What? You want me to drink by myself?"
Principal Peng hurriedly poured a cup for Wen Qing and himself. "No, Master San. Little Wen and I will drink with you today, hoping that you can help resolve this issue."
Principal Peng raised his glass and clinked it with his. Seeing that Wen Qing did not move, Principal Peng gave her a meaningful glance: "Little Wen, what are you waiting for? Are you waiting for Master San to advise you to drink?"
"Principal, I don\'t know how to drink."
I\'ll send you home. Don\'t worry, with Lord Third as a witness, I won\'t let you suffer any losses. It\'s your honor to be able to drink with him. Don\'t tell me you still look down on Lord Third? "
Wen Qing looked at Huo Tingshen.
Instead, he was staring at her face, looking at her with a calm expression on his face, his eyebrows raised.
Originally, she had asked him to keep his distance from her in front of the principal.
It was not good to go back on my words now.
She took a breath, picked up her glass, stood up, clinked glasses with the two of them.
Forget it, I\'ll just throw caution to the wind.
