118: Transfer student, acquaintance
Seeing Wang Xiaochen's polite demeanor, Chen Yan sighed inwardly. Indeed, there are differences between people.
Before meeting the two siblings, he had assumed they were also like those other second-generation rich kids—profligate and spoiled.
But now, it seems they are completely different.
He had heard the principal mention that their family was not simple, especially Wang Xiaochen's cousin, Wang Shaojun. He had donated one hundred million yuan to Modu No. 1 High School just like that.
That was one hundred million yuan! What kind of concept is it for a high school to receive a one hundred million yuan donation?
It's like a newly established small company suddenly receiving tens of billions in investment funds. Although the concepts of school and company are different, in some ways, they lead to the same destination.
And the purpose of donating one hundred million yuan was to transfer the two siblings to Modu No. 1 High School.
In his opinion, even if the Wang family hadn't donated, it wouldn't have been difficult to transfer them in by following the proper procedures.
Hmm! It seems they spent one hundred million yuan to simplify things.
"Hello, I am Chen Yan, the homeroom teacher of Class 1, Grade 3. Let's go, I'll first take you to familiarize yourselves with Modu No. 1 High School."
With that, he was about to lead Wang Xiaochen and Wang Yuyan into the school.
Seeing this, Wang Xiaochen quickly asked, "Teacher Chen, I wonder if a student's car can be parked inside the school?"
He hadn't forgotten that his car was still parked nearby. If he didn't move it soon, it would probably block the road once more cars arrived.
He didn't want to trouble Shao Jun (Young Lord) on his first day at the new school.
"Hmm? Of course, you can. I'll tell the security guard."
Hearing this, Wang Xiaochen turned around without a word and returned to the driver's seat. At this moment, the security guard opened the main gate, and Chen Yan looked at Wang Xiaochen's car.
Envy arose in his heart. Look at him, driving a car worth tens of millions in high school.
"Teacher Chen, is this... also a student in your class?"
The security guard next to Chen Yan clicked his tongue in amazement. He had been a security guard at Modu No. 1 High School for over ten years, and this was the first time he had seen a student drive a supercar to school.
Well, it's not that there are no rich second-generation students in the school, it's just that they aren't eighteen yet.
Those who are eighteen aren't wealthy, so yes, it was his first time seeing it.
And looking at the car, it wasn't cheap.
"Yes, a transfer student."
Chen Yan didn't say much, leading Wang Yuyan to follow behind Wang Xiaochen's car.
Half an hour later!
The two siblings got a simple understanding of the entire Modu No. 1 High School. It wasn't too big, nor too small.
A moment later, after Chen Yan had settled Wang Yuyan, he took Wang Xiaochen to the boys' dormitory.
What Wang Xiaochen hadn't expected was that the dormitories here were four-person rooms, with beds on top and desks below.
This was completely different from his previous high school, which had bunk beds, more than eight people per room.
And there was no air conditioning, just a few broken fans. Summers were unbearable.
Unlike here, not only were they four-person rooms, but they also had air conditioning. In his imagination, this was the kind of treatment only universities offered.
"Teacher, are... all the dormitories at Modu No. 1 High School like this?"
"Hmm, they're all pretty similar. Some are six-person rooms. How about this dorm? Do you want to switch?"
Hearing this, Wang Xiaochen was momentarily stunned. You can switch if you're not satisfied?
Is it like this for everyone? Or... is it because of his cousin?
But he figured it must be the latter.
He didn't rush to answer but surveyed the entire dorm. Clean and tidy—that was his first impression of the dorm.
Not only that, there wasn't a single unpleasant smell, unlike his previous dorm where sweat, smoke, and various other odors mixed together.
That smell was definitely overwhelming. He figured this dorm must have been specially arranged, which meant the other three roommates were not messy people. Such a dorm would be comfortable to live in.
"No need, this one will do."
Seeing that he was satisfied, Chen Yan nodded, feeling his efforts hadn't been in vain.
"Alright, in that case, I'll first take you to the dorm manager to register your information and get your key, then I'll take you to the classroom."
After all this was done, the two arrived at Class 1, Grade 3.
Wang Yuyan, on the other hand, was handed over to the homeroom teacher of Class 1, Grade 2. At this time, the second class had just begun.
However, there was no teacher giving a lecture. The forty-odd students in the entire class were currently whispering among themselves.
"Hey, have you heard? It seems like a transfer student is coming to our class. I wonder if it's a boy or a girl. The news is kept too tight."
"I hope it's a girl, preferably a beauty, otherwise I really can't get motivated to listen to class."
One of the boys, hearing this, looked around the class, observing the few eight girls, and sighed, shaking his head.
"Hey, Big-headed Fish, what's with that expression? Are we that ugly?"
"Exactly, exactly. Honestly, he doesn't know how to appreciate beauty."
"Ah, right, right, Big * Loli!"
"What did you say? Don't mute yourself if you've got something to say."
At the same time, the three people sitting in the corner seemed out of place and did not participate in their discussion.
They were just drawing circles in their notebooks with pens. "Third Brother, what do you think is the background of our new roommate?"
"You ask me? Who the hell do I ask? But for the homeroom teacher to pay so much attention, his background must not be simple."
"Oh, right, Boss, you should know something, right? Quickly tell us. We asked you last night, but you refused to tell us. Can you tell us now?"
"Ah, no, from today onwards, I'm the second oldest. The newcomer is the dorm boss. Never mind, he'll be reporting to school today anyway, so I can tell you."
But no sooner had he finished speaking, before he could continue, Chen Yan entered the classroom from outside with Wang Xiaochen and walked onto the podium.
Seeing this, everyone directly ignored Chen Yan, the homeroom teacher, and immediately focused their gaze on the boy following behind him.
"Hmm? A boy? So disappointing."
"Although he's a boy, he looks a bit handsome. In that case, ah~ we've finally escaped the prying eyes of the Eight Golden Flowers."
"Pfft, shameless."
"Boss, is this our new roommate? He looks pretty good."
"Yes, it's him, Wang Xiaochen. We meet again."
I never would have thought, I never would have thought, that you possessed such a background, and I didn't even know. You hide it quite well.
At this moment, Wang Xiaochen on the podium looked down, and suddenly, a familiar figure entered his sight.
The other person was also looking at him with a smile. Their eyes met, and they exchanged smiles.
Seeing the incessant chattering below, Chen Yan couldn't help but bang on the podium and said with a stern face, "Quiet, what are you all arguing about?"
The crowd below, seeing Chen Yan's serious expression, immediately sat up straight in fear.
The entire class instantly fell silent.
This scene made Wang Xiaochen look at him with new eyes. He hadn't expected his homeroom teacher to have such authority; he was completely different from before.
And Chen Yan, seeing this, nodded in satisfaction and then said, "This is our new classmate, Wang Xiaochen. I hope you all get along well for the next six months."
With that, he turned to look at Wang Xiaochen, pointed to an empty seat in the front below, and said, "That's your seat. Go down and sit for now. If you have any problems at school later, you can come to me."
Wang Xiaochen nodded, "Thank you, Teacher. But... can I switch seats with that student?"
Hmm?
Chen Yan looked in the direction he pointed, first stunned, then quickly realizing his oversight. How could he not have thought of it?
"Of course, you can. Song Diaomao, please switch seats with Wang Xiaochen."
Song Diaomao, hearing this, was a bit puzzled. Why? Is it just because my name is Song Diaomao?
Although unwilling, he still switched. He didn't dare to refute Chen Yan's words. Anyway, for him, sitting anywhere was the same.
After everything was settled, Chen Yan said "self-study" and left the classroom.
