Coming!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Principal Wang agreed, while secretly criticizing himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Did he agree too quickly?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As a principal, being so compliant to a student’s request, isn’t that somewhat inappropriate?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though he was mulling over these thoughts, Principal Wang didn’t let it affect his pace and followed Jiang Cheng to Teacher Lü’s office.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Where’s Teacher Lü?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The teacher had an urgent matter and left, asking me to study on my own, but Zhao Chengde has some academic issues, so I came to seek your help.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Principal Wang stood upright, pushing his robust hair back, revealing his full and shiny forehead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Jiang Cheng, you’ve got a good eye. Back in the day, I was quite a talent in Russian...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Principal, am I someone who can make you work? Just sit here and supervise us.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Cheng swiftly found a chair for Principal Wang and kindly poured him some water.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With an air of authority, Principal Wang sat down, holding his tea mug, looking satisfied at Jiang Cheng’s sense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Cheng sat on a chair, turned to Zhao Chengde, and said, \"Take out your article.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao Chengde, who had been passive all along, took a notebook from his backpack, which was grabbed by Jiang Cheng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The handwriting is neat... Here isn’t quite right. Look, if you translate it this way, it might be better...

With so many countries, it’s never a one-person job.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A real hero is never alone, but a part of a greater group.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let’s hope we can both strive to be part of that group.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Cheng nodded at Zhao Chengde, thanked Principal Wang, and hurried out of the office, thinking about solidifying her future network.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the office, Principal Wang stood up, patting Zhao Chengde on the shoulder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What I say might not sit well with you, but I still want to tell you, meeting Jiang Cheng might be the luckiest thing in your life.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Chengde, only by following the right mentor can your brilliance reach its full potential.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Principal Wang left the office, leaning against the wall, trying to discreetly tug at his sticky pants.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, there’s always someone who doesn’t realize the situation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Principal, why are your pants wet?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mathematics Teacher Yu immediately regretted his words, awkwardly meeting Principal Wang’s gaze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Umm— I haven’t finished my homework!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Principal Wang: You’re a teacher, what homework could you possibly have!!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Teacher Yu ran off, slapping his own mouth as he walked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, he wished he could borrow Jiang Cheng’s way with words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During the night school, Jiang Cheng attended one of two classes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was called away by Teacher Lü during the second class.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Jiang Cheng went to request leave, she vaguely noticed the biology teacher laughing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Laughing quite happily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Doesn’t he want her to attend class?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Biology teacher: Indeed! Afraid you’ll raise your head!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Cheng followed Teacher Lü to the principal’s office, where there were two unfamiliar faces.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One was an older gentleman, probably similar in age to Teacher Lü, around sixty or so.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The other was younger, around forty, with a robust build, a restrained presence, yet his gaze was intimidating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Jiang Cheng, right? I’ve heard from Teacher Lü that you’re a language genius. How about a live test?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Teacher Lü actually told the truth.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Cheng clearly saw the other person freeze for half a second and then took control, saying, \"I’m ready whenever you are.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Cheng knew the person was skeptical about her handling of the R language matter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her cooperation satisfied them, and the test began.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The older gentleman spoke in four languages, each from sentences to paragraphs to dialogues.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having heard it once, Jiang Cheng perfectly repeated them all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two across exchanged subtle glances, and the old man spoke once more, this time in a dialect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Cheng flawlessly repeated it again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After concluding the dialect test, the old man suggested having a conversation in Russian with Jiang Cheng, to which she readily agreed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two engaged in a casual, friendly chat, the old man smiling benevolently, discussing mundane topics that naturally lowered one’s guard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the peak of the congenial atmosphere, the old man suddenly switched to R language.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Cheng instinctively responded in Hua Xia, her stunned expression etched clearly into everyone’s pupils.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Excellent! A genius! Wonderful!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old man’s previously approachable demeanor vanished as he stood up excitedly, his eyes gleaming while looking at Jiang Cheng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Teacher Lü immediately stepped in front of Jiang Cheng, protectively declaring, \"She’s my student!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old man feigned indignation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Teacher Lü, that’s not right. You’re only proficient in Russian. A talent like Jiang Cheng shouldn’t be limited to just one language.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After speaking, the old man proudly turned to Jiang Cheng and said, \"Student Jiang Cheng, I specialize in both R and English. Would you like to learn?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Cheng understood she had passed the old man’s test.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thank you, but a genius like me can slowly self-study too.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a single sentence, Jiang Cheng filled Teacher Lü with pride, bringing him satisfaction and making him stand taller.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old man’s expression turned odd—was this girl complimenting herself again?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, the middle-aged man nearby promptly interrupted:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Elder Xu, we haven’t discussed the main matter yet!\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1273,"2026-06-03T05:46:21.509Z",1,"novelbin.me","94569e3f7aa2e54a9794e1eb2ef7338bdcf74fa801862c3f30f6b3c08df876a2","rich-in-the-70s-i-made-a-rugged-veteran-a-millio-chapter-36","rich-in-the-70s-i-made-a-rugged-veteran-a-millio-chapter-34",340,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Frich-in-the-70s-i-made-a-rugged-veteran-a-millio-cover.jpg"]
