Chapter 47: Conspiracy!

  Qin Luo did not expect everyone's reaction would be so intense. He knew they would miss him, but he didn't think they would miss him to this extent.

  Wang Jiujiao suddenly stood up, almost knocking over the first row of tables. His beautiful eyes were filled with anger as he looked at Qin Luo and asked: "Who fired you? What right did they have to fire you? In the entire medical university, which teacher has a higher teaching level than yours?"

  "Exactly. I propose that our whole class sign a joint petition to make our stance clear to the school."

  "Before, I thought school was just a waste of time. After Teacher Qin arrived, I became truly interested in traditional Chinese medicine and actually felt like I learned something. If Teacher Qin leaves, I'll leave too."

  "Teacher Qin, if you leave, we'll follow you."

  "I'm leaving too."

  "Count me in."

  The students stood up one by one to support Qin Luo, with a resolute attitude and an indignant expression.

  Qin Luo waved his hand and smiled, saying: "The school also has its own reasons. They asked me for a teacher qualification certificate, and I really don't have that thing. To be honest, I'm not afraid of everyone laughing at me, but I've never actually attended a regular school to study."

  "What can a certificate represent?" Li Meng shouted with a red face and thick neck. "Those teachers with certificates are not even as good as you, Teacher Qin. We only respect you, we don't respect anyone else."

  "It's like that. What era are we in now, still using certificates to make a point? If you want a certificate, I'll get one made for Teacher Qin."

  "Wang Liang, don't talk big. Where did you get your teacher qualification certificate?"

  "How did I brag? There are many under the bridge, twenty yuan per piece. Whatever certificate you want is fine, and even a virginity certificate can be made for you."

  Qin Luo waved his hand to signal everyone to calm down and said, "Everyone, don't get excited. This is my business, I will handle it well. I am a teacher, my responsibility is to pass on what I know to you. And you are students, your task is to learn. No matter who can teach you something, you must study seriously."

  "But we want Teacher Qin to teach us 'Traditional Chinese Medicine Diagnostics'."

  "That's right. We also have experience driving teachers away. Teacher Qin, if the school dares to fire you, we'll fight it out with them."

  "It's all right. These days can't be passed."

  Qin Luo was just about to persuade him when his mobile phone in his pocket rang.

  Qin Luo smiled apologetically at everyone and then quickly walked out of the classroom.

  The incoming call displays an unfamiliar number with no name attached.

  "Hello? Who is this?" Qin Luo answered the phone and asked.

  "Is it Qin Luo? I'm Li Yonggang." A bright and cheerful male voice came from the phone.

  "Is that Li Yonggang?" Qin Luo was taken aback for a moment. The name seemed somewhat familiar. When he remembered who Li Yonggang was, he hastily said: "Principal Li, hello."

  Director Guo always regarded Qin Luo as Lai Yonggang's confidant, so his attitude towards him was very special. Enthusiastic, yet guarded.

  If he knew Qin Luo almost forgot this person's name, I wonder what he would think.

  "Haha, hello. I just got your phone number from Lao Lin, didn't disturb you during class, did I?" Lei Yonggang asked with a smile.

  "It's okay. Does Principal Lei have something to do with me?" Qin Luo asked. He thought, Li Yonggang must have known that he was "fired" and called him now. Did he just find out about this?

  If it is so, then it proves that the people behind are extraordinary. Otherwise, Director Guo would not have made such a one-sided choice.

  "Uh-huh. I just heard about you too. If you're not busy, come sit in my office for a bit?"

  "Okay. Where is Principal Li's office?" Qin Luo asked.

  Li Yonggang gave the address and then hung up the phone with Qin Luo.

  Qin Luo walked into the classroom and said, "I know everyone's emotions are running high right now. Even if I forced you all to listen to class, you wouldn't be able to focus on anything anyway. I have something to take care of, so just review freely."

  Qin Luogang had just walked out of the classroom when Wang Jiujie caught up with him.

  "99, anything going on?" Qin Luo asked with a smile. Since the last KTV incident and Ma Youcai's downfall, their relationship had become much closer.

  Qin Luo now doesn't just see her as a simple student, but also thinks she's a trustworthy friend.

  "Teacher Qin, where are you going?" Wang Jiujin asked anxiously. She was afraid that once Qin Luo left, she would lose all contact with him.

  Principal Li found me and asked me to go talk to him." Qin Luo said with a smile.

  "Principal Li wants to talk to you? Alright, I'll go with you." said Wang Jiujiu.

  "What are you doing?" Qin Luo looked at Wang Jiujin with a mixture of laughter and tears.

  "I want to act as a student representative and go negotiate with Principal Li." Wang Jiujing said resolutely.

  "What's the fuss about? What's the point of negotiating with Principal Li? He didn't fire me. Hurry up and get back to class. This is my business, I'll handle it." Qin Luo said, waving his hand. Turning around, he was about to leave alone.

  "Qin Luo, stop right there!" Wang Jiujiju shouted loudly.

  "Uh----I'm your teacher. In school, you have to give me some face, right?" Qin Luo turned around with a surprised expression and looked at Wang Jiujin.

  Being addressed by his own students on a first-name basis, Qin Luo felt a little strange in his heart.

  "If you don't take me there, I guarantee that right now I'll go back and bring the whole class to sit quietly at the school gate." Wang Jiujin said with a resolute face, biting her thin lips.

  "I'm not threatening you. You can refuse me too." Wang Jiujin said.

  "You're threatening me." Qin Luo stared at Wang Jiujin and said.

  "If you think so ----- then it is."

  The eyes of the two people collided in mid-air, and the atmosphere was quite awkward.

  "Let's go." Qin Luo said helplessly.

  Wang Jiujin's tightly closed face suddenly burst open, and he ran over to hug Qin Luo's arm, saying: "I knew it, you must agree with me."

  "Men and women should not be intimate when giving or receiving things. We need to keep a distance." Qin Luo quickly pulled away.

  "Now that you mention it, I really hope you get fired from school. That way, no one will say anything if I hug you."

  "You're becoming more and more like your mother!"

  "Who does she look like if not me?"

  Li Yonggang is the president of Capital Medical University, which means he is the number one person in charge of several major schools.

  His office is located in the oldest building of the school, Zhi Xing Building. The exterior wall has some black paint, but it adds a sense of simplicity and heaviness.

  After Qin Luo knocked on the door of Principal Li Yonggang's office, a young man wearing glasses opened the door. Upon seeing Qin Luo, he smiled and said: "You must be Teacher Qin? The principal is waiting for you."

  "Thank you." Qin Luo said with a smile.

  The young man saw Wang Jiujin following Qin Luo and felt puzzled, but still politely invited the two to come in.

  Li Yonggang signed the documents in his hand and handed them over to the bespectacled man, saying: "Little Li, take it away and issue it."

  "Alright." The man with glasses replied, took over the documents but didn't execute immediately. Instead, he helped the customer pour tea before closing the door and leaving.

  Lui Yong walked up to Qin Luo and sat down, looking at Wang Jiujin who was staring at him with hostility, and asked: "Who is this little girl?"

  "I am Wang Jiujin. I'm a student representative of the Traditional Chinese Medicine Clinical Department at the School of Traditional Chinese Medicine. I'm also a student of Teacher Qin. I've come to negotiate with you on behalf of all 49 students in our class and 45 auditing students." Wang Jiujin introduced himself with a serious expression, looking very official.

  "Negotiation? What's there to negotiate?" Lai Yonggang looked at Qin Luo, who responded with a bitter smile.

  "We want to know why the school wants to fire Teacher Qin," said Wang Jiujiu.

  "This is also the reason why I asked Qin Luo to come over and talk." Lei Yonggang said with a smile.

  "What's the reason then?"

  "Why? Because Qin Luo doesn't have a teacher qualification certificate."

  "But Teacher Qin is the best teacher of traditional Chinese medicine."

  "I believe what you said. But will others believe it?" Lei Yonggang retorted.

  "What does it matter if others believe or not? We are students, we know where to learn. The school always liked to find some mediocre people to deceive us, this time they finally sent us a teacher with real talent and learning. None of us want to let him go."

  Li Yonggang shook his head and sighed, saying: "Little girl, you're still too young. After entering society, you'll only know that some things can't be solved just because everyone knows about them. Yes is also not yes, no is also possible to be yes."

  Wang Jiujui waved his hand and said in a very grand tone, "Don't talk to me about such profound things. We just don't want Teacher Qin to leave. This is the request we, as a whole class, are making to the school. We're young, and if the school doesn't agree, then us young people will do what young people should do."

  "Oh, the little girl actually threatened the principal." Lei Yonggang couldn't help but laugh.

  "She just threatened me like that too." Qin Luo said with a bitter smile.

  Normally can't see it, when something happens, this woman is as fierce as her mother. Neither of them are willing to suffer losses.

  "Haha, Qin Luo, having a student threaten you is your good fortune. I've been busy and didn't have time to care about your situation at school. Now it seems that being a teacher suits you well." Li Yonggang said with a smile as he looked at Qin Luo.

  "It seems now that talent is worth less than a sheet of paper." Qin Luo said with a smile.

  "Alas, if it weren't for the mysterious phone call I received earlier, I wouldn't have thought that such a thing would happen. After inquiring with Director Guo about the situation, I just found out that you were fired by the Traditional Chinese Medicine Academy." Lü Yonggang sighed and said.

  Li Yong glanced at Wang Jiujiu, then said to Qin Luo: "The old principal personally called and said that the school cannot hire teachers just because of connections. We must take full responsibility for our students and patients, and strictly examine the qualifications of our teachers. Director Guo is a student of the old principal, so he dismissed you without my approval. Of course, department heads do have the right to be in charge of hiring within their own departments, no need to report to me."

  "It seems I've offended someone of high status." Qin Luo said with a bitter smile.

  "That's right." Because of Lin Qingyuan, Lei Yonggang didn't have any particular concerns. He said: "Schemes can be divided into two kinds: yin and yang schemes. We're not afraid of others using yin schemes, because in that case, we only need to expose the scheme and it will be fine."

  "But now others are using a clever trick. It's really putting us in a difficult position. Not having a medical school education and not having a teacher qualification certificate is indeed your Achilles' heel."

  "Is there no other way?" Wang Jiujin asked anxiously.

  Sorry, it's even later than expected. Please forgive me. Also, I don't guarantee there will be a second update. Even if there is one, it'll be very late. Please don't wait up for it, just check again tomorrow morning.
