A great director who grew up happily

Chapter 233 Behind every outrageous rule, there is an even more outrageous thing

“I’m a college student now.”

"How can he possibly compare to high school students like us?"

"I just need to take the exams casually and get a good grade to make ends meet."

Qiao Yingzi, Huang Zhitao and Wang Yidi each said something that confused Chen Jinnian so much that he had no idea what they meant.

"What nonsense you are talking about."

Seeing that he still didn't understand what was going on, Wang Yidi put his chopsticks on the plate and told him what had happened recently.

"You have no idea how arrogant Fang Houer has been lately. He's completely forgotten his last name. He brags every day about getting into seven art schools through their third round of auditions. He even tells everyone he meets how great he performed in the third round of auditions at the Shanghai Theatre Academy, as if he's already been accepted."

Then she became even angrier, lowering her eyebrows and pouting as she said, "I kindly reminded him not to get too carried away. Firstly, we don't know his qualification certificate and ranking yet, and secondly, his grades are too bad to guarantee admission to university. But he actually called me a catfish spirit and asked if I was his father or mother and why I was so controlling."

Wang Yidi became more and more angry as he thought about it. He clenched his fists and hit Chen Jinnian's shoulders. However, with such force, he felt that his hands were not strong enough to massage Chen Jinnian.

"Alright, alright, Yidi, don't be angry for now. Since Fang Yifan doesn't recognize you as his mother, let's just pretend we don't have this child."

"Pfft."

Upon hearing Chen Jinnian's words, Qiao Yingzi, who was drinking porridge, spit out food. Food was flowing out of her mouth and nose. Chen Jinnian dodged quickly and was not sprayed, but he had already eaten half of his meal and was ruined by the saturation attack.

"Cough, cough, cough."

Qiao Yingzi was choking and coughing. Wang Yidi and Huang Zhitao suppressed their laughter and quickly took out the portable tissues from their pockets to wipe her mouth.

"Chen Jinnian, you have such a vicious mouth. Not only did you insult Fang Houer, but you almost choked our Yingzi to death." Huang Zhitao complained, feeling both amused and angry.

Such a big commotion naturally attracted the attention of the teacher from the General Affairs Office. She was checking the hygiene in the kitchen. When she saw what was happening, she came over to ask the reason, whether the food was appropriate or there was some other reason.

"No, no." Qiao Yingzi quickly shook her head.

The cafeteria manager who was following behind finally felt relieved. As long as there was nothing wrong with the food, it would be fine. He had just thought that a student had food poisoning.

Qiao Yingzi picked up another tissue, wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and continued, "He was telling a joke just now, and I accidentally choked."

"I……"

Chen Jinnian was about to refute, but he didn't know where to start.

The teacher in the General Affairs Office knew Chen Jinnian. She glared at the culprit fiercely before going back to continue checking.

However, the matter was not over yet. That night, the head teachers of each class temporarily issued a school management regulation: it was forbidden to tell jokes to people around while eating in the cafeteria.

Everyone expressed their confusion about this outrageous rule, but only the four of them understood the reason.

When the notice was issued, Chen Jinnian felt bad because Li Meng's eyes were fixed on him when she was explaining the regulations.

Could it be that the teacher from the General Affairs Office came to Li Meng to complain?

Sure enough, his intuition was always accurate, especially when it came to getting into trouble. Li Meng had just finished informing him of the rule when she called him to the corridor and gave him a scolding.

This incident really made Li Meng very angry. Even though she had prepared herself mentally for Chen Jinnian's ability to cause trouble, she never thought that Chen Jinnian could cause trouble for her just by going to the cafeteria to eat.

When the General Affairs Office came to see her tonight, she was stunned and thought for a moment that they were joking with her.

It turned out that Chen Jinnian was really joking.

"Are you destined to kill me? It's the first day of school after the New Year, and you actually managed to give me a surprise." Li Meng asked, poking his chest with her finger.

"Teacher, it was indeed an accident."

"Why do you always have accidents?"

Chen Jinnian was speechless. He had to ask Qiao Yingzi what made him laugh. He just wanted to comfort Wang Yidi.

"After you finish this mock exam, you'll write a self-criticism and hand it to me. Also, for lunch and dinner tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, you'll follow me to the staff cafeteria on the second floor. Do you understand?"

Looking at Li Meng with a cold face in front of him, Chen Jinnian had no choice but to nod in agreement.

"Then can I go back?"

He pointed to the open classroom door, where many classmates were pricking up their ears, trying hard to listen to the noise.

"Hurry up and go, don't stand here and make me angry."

Li Meng waved her hands impatiently and told him to walk as fast as possible and not to stand in the corridor and get in the way.

Not long after Chen Jinnian returned to the classroom, Pan Shuai came out of the classroom next to the sprint class.

When he saw Li Meng in the corridor, he greeted her enthusiastically, "Did you see the message just sent in the group? It's really outrageous. Who would tell jokes in the cafeteria? Haha...ha."

When Pan Shuai noticed that Li Meng's eyes became strange and looked as if he wanted to kill someone, he immediately stopped laughing and touched his nose to hide his embarrassment.

"Humph."

Li Meng snorted unhappily, shook her hair, turned around quickly and walked away.

Pan Shuai, who stayed where he was, scratched his head, still thinking about what he had said inappropriately that accidentally made Director Li angry.

After attending two self-study classes, Chen Jinnian finally got through this eventful yet fruitless day. He felt that today was harder than the previous week.

But as soon as the bell rang, Wang Yidi hurriedly urged him out of the classroom. If it were in the past, it should have been the other way around.

"Why are you so anxious?"

"We are going to Teacher Song's house to study." Wang Yidi explained to him.

"What do you mean by 'we'? Who are they? I'm not one of them, right? How come I don't know?"

Chen Jinnian still wanted to go back with Wang Yidi to study and spend some time in their own world, but from the sound of it, it seemed like there was a third party, maybe even four, five, six, seven, or eight others.

"Why aren't you here? If I go, how can you not go? Yingzi, Taozi and Lei'er will all go." Wang Yidi dragged his arm and hurried out. In the corridor, Qiao Yingzi and others were already waiting.

"Where's Yangyang?"

Not seeing Ji Yangyang, Chen Jinnian asked with some confusion.

"Yangyang takes different classes from us. His basic knowledge is still a little weaker, so he needs to go to a cram school," Huang Zhitao explained.

Chen Jinnian really didn't know about these new changes. After all, he had been away from studying for a long time. He hadn't touched his high school textbooks since the final exams before the New Year.

At the same time, Song Qian had already placed water and the papers for tonight on the table in the dining room. As for herself, she was sitting on the edge of the bed in the master bedroom, flipping through some papers in her hands.

Tong Wenjie was also here, sitting on a chair by the window with a cup of hot water in her hand, frowning and thinking about something.
