In middle age, one's comprehension becomes extraordinary.

After a night's rest, it's Wednesday, time to go back to work as usual.

At the Shifenghe Teaching and Research Meeting, Li Yuan felt he hadn't exerted much energy and didn't need any extra rest.

At 8:10, Li Yuan arrived at the office.

The events that occurred at the Shifenghe teaching and research meeting have already spread throughout Lingshan No. 1 Middle School.

After Jin Fan was seriously injured, some teachers spread the news in their small group chat.

No one mentioned this in the large group chat of Lingshan No.1 Middle School.

Li Yuan guessed that it must have been a teacher from Lingshan No. 2 Middle School who relayed the news back.

Then it spread from No. 2 Middle School to the teachers of No. 1 Middle School.

Normally, no one pays much attention to the Shifenghe Teaching and Research Association.

It's just a teaching seminar; most of the time, it's over and done with, and it doesn't have much impact.

However, at this teaching seminar, one teacher was seriously injured.

It's actually quite shocking.

At 8:30, the teachers of No. 1 Middle School began to clock in for work one after another.

Upon seeing Li Yuan, everyone addressed him very politely as "Director".

For most of the teachers, they were Li Yuan's seniors, having arrived at Lingshan No. 1 Middle School even earlier than Li Yuan.

However, he approves of Li Yuan being appointed as the director.

It's not just about helping them improve their teaching abilities, but also about making them recognize Li Yuan's contributions, which have brought about substantial improvements in their welfare.

The money that Huang Bo wasted was turned into benefits for all the teachers.

As the workload increases, the benefits must keep pace.

Li Yuanshen agreed with this point.

Giving without receiving can destroy a person's motivation.

Perhaps many teachers can persevere out of a sense of responsibility as teachers, but Li Yuan felt it was inappropriate.

After Chen Yong arrived, he immediately sat down next to Li Yuan and asked about the situation of the teaching and research meeting.

Actually, Chen Yong had already asked that question on the phone last night.

Today I want to hear more details and ask again about anything I haven't asked yet.

"I heard that Jin Fan's elders came. Did they cause you any trouble?"

Someone told me before that Jin Fan's family is not ordinary.

If we put him in the hospital, we'll definitely face retaliation...

Chen Yong's family was well-off, and he had never encountered any major events in his life.

He panicked when he heard that Li Yuan had offended Jin Fan.

The previous conflicts were always just work-related.

Chen Yong could hardly have imagined that the conflict would escalate to such an extent, even to the point of endangering his life.

Seeing the panic on his face, Li Yuan explained the situation to him again.

Including why he himself attacked and severely injured Jin Fan.

He wouldn't be seriously injured; he would be in greater danger and encounter more trouble.

After hearing this, Chen Yong was still worried, but seeing how calm Li Yuandu was, he felt much more at ease.

After returning to school, Li Yuan seized the time to continue advancing his tasks.

This includes large lectures for students.

Huang Bo is still teaching the anatomy class.

Li Yuan has made it clear that he will hire another teacher to replace him in his teaching duties.

This time, Huang Bo seems to have become very responsible again.

He said he would finish teaching this semester.

Even though Li Yuan was preparing to change teachers, he persisted.

Li Yuanxian expressed his approval of his attitude.

I then made it clear to him that I would watch his class recordings and hoped that he would live up to his last days at Lingshan No.1 Middle School.

Friday after school is the weekly meeting of Lingshan No.1 Middle School.

All the teachers gathered in the large conference room.

At today's weekly meeting, in addition to the usual people, Director Zeng also attended.

At the start of the weekly meeting, Principal Yin gave a concluding speech.

Li Yuan thought Principal Yin would talk about the Shifenghe Teaching and Research Association.

Jin Fan was seriously injured, so the principal should take the opportunity to make a few sarcastic remarks about himself.

However, Principal Yin only mentioned the school affairs for this week.

He deliberately avoided other matters.

After Principal Yin finished speaking, Director Zeng began to speak.

As a key high school in Lingshan City, Lingshan No.1 Middle School is definitely the school that the Education Bureau needs to pay the most attention to.

But Director Zeng is, after all, the director, and he wouldn't come for trivial matters.

Director Zeng began with some polite words, and after that, he began to read a document.

This document is a notification regarding Li Yuan's appointment as acting vice principal.

Previously, as arranged by Director Zeng, Li Yuan already possessed some of the powers of a vice principal.

This time, he was directly promoted to acting vice principal.

The relevant salary, bonuses, and allowances will all be distributed according to the vice-principal level.

In the large conference room, the teachers were stunned for a moment.

Following Chen Yong's lead, everyone clapped.

This result truly surprised everyone.

Li Yuan's promotion this time was too fast. He has only been in the position of director of the teaching and research office for a short time, but he has indeed made some achievements.

But does getting good grades guarantee a promotion so quickly?

Not only were others surprised, but Li Yuan felt the same way.

The weekly meeting lasted an hour. After it ended, Director Zeng invited Li Yuan to have dinner together.

Actually, even if Director Zeng hadn't called out, Li Yuan would have taken the initiative to ask this time.

The two found a restaurant, sat in a quiet corner, and began to talk.

Li Yuan naturally asked about the reason for the promotion.

"You asked me this question, but I was planning to ask you the same thing."

This promotion was due to a recommendation from above.

It is said that a great educator highly recognizes your abilities and has offered to promote you further.

Then, during the last public lecture, the provincial leaders also recognized your abilities and said a few good words in your defense.

The appointment of the acting vice principal was thus approved.

At this point in Director Zeng's speech, Li Yuan had already realized what was going on.

This great educator is most likely the famous teacher Xia Zhao mentioned.

She asked someone to speak on her behalf, and sure enough, she saw a very noticeable improvement.

Xia Zhao's social status was indeed vastly different from his own.

Normally, one's promotion wouldn't happen that quickly.

Seeing Li Yuan's slightly furrowed brows, Director Zeng assumed that Li Yuan was somewhat unhappy and disliked the acting position.

"Relax, being promoted to acting vice principal is already a great achievement."

Your promotion was too fast; giving you an acting position would actually make it easier for people to accept you.

There won't be any restrictions on your work.

The vice-principal's due benefits will not be reduced in the slightest.

Director Zeng spoke up to offer some advice, seemingly wanting to say a few words to Li Yuan to ease his displeasure.

In fact, Li Yuangang hadn't even thought about this.

All I could think about was Xia Zhao.

For the first six months or so, she spent a lot of energy searching for herself.

They even found the area around Lingshan No.1 Middle School.

However, they were misled and the blame was placed on Jin Fan.

This shows that Xia Zhaoxin does indeed have feelings for her, and the two have mutual affection.

Despite the attraction, the gap between them remained.

She found someone to promote her so easily...

Seeing that Director Zeng was still talking, Li Yuan composed himself.

He explained that he did not object to the promotion.

Not only did they not mind, but they were pleasantly surprised.

Under normal circumstances, how could someone become a vice principal so quickly after being promoted to head of the teaching and research office?
