Chapter 272: Chapter 271, What Qualifications Do You Have to Come Here? Chen Qiaomu had been looking around anxiously, hoping for Xu Wendong to appear. But she hadn’t seen any sign of him for a long time. This left her feeling a bit disappointed. Seeing Huang Pangzi and his companions coming together, she quickly went forward and nervously asked, "Huang Hao, where’s Xu Wendong?" Huang Pangzi and the other two looked around, puzzled that Xu Wendong wasn’t with them. "Wendong was just with us, how did he disappear?" Huang Pangzi was full of confusion. The other two classmates were equally puzzled. The four of them had come together, chatting and laughing. Who’d have thought Xu Wendong would disappear in the blink of an eye? Chen Qiaomu forced a smile and said, "Maybe he went to the restroom. You guys go ahead. I’ll wait here for him." Huang Pangzi signaled his two roommates to go in first, hesitated for a moment, then said to Chen Qiaomu, "Class monitor, I know you have feelings for Wendong, but... this time Wendong returned, and I feel like he’s changed." "He has become much more outgoing, not as self-conscious as before." "Not only that, but he has also become much more profound." "Between you two, things might no longer be possible!" Chen Qiaomu’s eyes were calm, "No, he promised me he would come. I don’t believe he would lie to me." Huang Pangzi sighed inwardly, then entered the lecture hall. "Xu Wendong, you’d better not break your promise, or I’ll hate you!" Chen Qiaomu felt a surge of bitterness and waited quietly. ------ On the other side. Xu Wendong arrived at the staff entrance. However. The security guard at the door stopped him, telling him to use the student entrance. Xu Wendong didn’t say much, taking out his phone and dialing Liu Chunyang’s number, as he couldn’t enter through the staff entrance under these circumstances. But Liu Chunyang had not yet arrived at the lecture hall. He told Xu Wendong to give the phone to the security guard at the door and then instructed the guard to let Xu Wendong in through the staff entrance. Liu Chunyang was one of the three vice deans of the Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) Department. Although he was only vice dean, his influence was even greater than that of the dean, and he ruled the TCM department with absolute authority. Liu Chunyang did not tell the security guard that Xu Wendong was a specially hired senior honorary lecturer by the TCM department, but since he had given the go-ahead for Xu Wendong to enter, who dared stop him? Just like that. Xu Wendong entered the lounge area of the lecture hall. And at this time, dozens of lecturers and professors from the TCM department had already gathered there. They were whispering among themselves, discussing the sudden appearance of a senior honorary lecturer and who he might be. "No need to guess. If I’m not mistaken, this time the honorary lecturer must be a famous doctor from the North," a professor spoke, expressing his opinion. Someone echoed, "That’s right. Since this honorary lecturer was invited by Old Liu, they must have an outstanding attribute in some aspect to be hired by him." Everyone was discussing, believing this honorary lecturer must be an elder who had long made a name for themselves and had outstanding abilities in a certain field. "Xu Wendong? How did you get here?" With Hou Yuanping’s angry shout, the lounge suddenly fell silent, and all eyes were focused on Xu Wendong, this young man in their midst. None of them expected a young person to enter here. "Why can’t I be here?" Xu Wendong smiled. He hadn’t expected to see Hou Yuanping here. He thought that after what happened before, Hou Yuanping would definitely be under investigation. The truth proved, however, that things weren’t as he had imagined. The so-called investigation was just a way to placate the public. "This is the staff lounge! You’re not even considered a student of our school. What qualifications do you have to be here?" Hou Yuanping snorted coldly. Regarding Xu Wendong. He was very displeased. After all, there had been a conflict between them in the cafeteria earlier, which even implicated his friend Lin Zhonghai, although the situation had already been brought under control. But he had still been reprimanded. All of this was because of Xu Wendong. "Somebody, get this outsider out of our institution. He has no right to attend the lecture, much less be in the staff lounge!" Hou Yuanping directly shouted at the security guard to have Xu Wendong thrown out. "I’d like to see who dares." Accompanied by a voice full of anger, Liu Chunyang entered expressionlessly. Beside him were the head of the TCM department and two other vice deans. With four deans gathered together, Hou Yuanping dared not act arrogantly and nervously said, "Old Liu, Xu Wendong is not a student of our institution. He has no right to attend the lecture, let alone enter the staff lounge." Liu Chunyang snorted coldly and asked, "Is Xu Wendong really not a student of our institution?" Hou Yuanping anxiously replied, "He was before, but now he’s not." Liu Chunyang asked again, "Why is he no longer a student?" "He... he withdrew from school!" Hou Yuanping’s eyes were full of evasion. Before Liu Chunyang could respond, Hou Yuanping’s backer, Vice Dean Zhou, coldly demanded, "Why did Xu Wendong withdraw?" Upon hearing this. Hou Yuanping couldn’t help but shiver, never expecting his backer to question this matter. It was clearly siding with Xu Wendong and not himself! Vice Dean Zhou coldly ordered, "Answer my previous question!" Hou Yuanping was about to cry. He didn’t know how to explain the situation. If he told the truth, he would definitely lose his job. Vice Dean Zhou, with a gloomy face, continued, "Hou Yuanping, as a TCM teacher and class leader of Xu Wendong, you should have been providing care and all the help you could when Xu Wendong’s family faced difficulties." "Not abusing the power you have, pressuring others to satisfy your selfish desires." "What qualifies you to be a teacher?" "Do you even deserve the title of being a role model?" These words. Surprised everyone. While many knew Hou Yuanping’s ways were dirty, nobody expected Vice Dean Zhou to publicly address the matter. After all, Hou Yuanping was his person. By saying this, he essentially denied everything about Hou Yuanping. "Hou Yuanping, regarding the extortion of students and abuse of power, we have already reported these matters to the police. Consider carefully how you will explain your criminal actions to them!" Liu Chunyang said blandly. Hou Yuanping’s face turned ashen from fright, and he collapsed on the ground, a helpless despair enveloping him. Though his crimes weren’t severe, once investigated, he would still face under three years at least. Even if he were released, his work and family would be ruined! While he was still in shock, Liu Chunyang’s voice rang out again, "Fellow colleagues, next I would like to formally introduce the specially appointed senior honorary lecturer of our TCM department." "He is Xu Wendong, right beside me!" Boom! His words stirred waves of astonishment. Everyone was left dumbfounded, clearly never expecting Xu Wendong to be the specially appointed senior honorary lecturer for the TCM department. Hou Yuanping’s eyes turned bloodshot, and he let out a hysterical roar, "No, I’m not convinced, I’m not convinced. Xu Wendong is just a student, what qualifies him to be the senior honorary lecturer for our department?"
