Chapter 353: The Cla.s.s Gap in a Big City
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Lin Yi hung up the phone. He didn’t know how long they’d be talking for, so he might as well hang up first.
Lin Yi then called Guo Rui.
She was a teacher at the school, and it’d be more appropriate for her to handle this matter.
The two soon arrived at an old neighborhood under w.a.n.g Ying’s lead.
w.a.n.g Lu and her cla.s.smates were sitting in front of shop lot at a loss.
!!
However, Liu Changning, whom they had met before this, wasn’t here.
“Lin Bro, you’re here!”
Now that she understood w.a.n.g Ying and Lin Yi’s relationship, w.a.n.g Lu had changed her way of addressing Lin Yi to Lin Bro.
Lin Yi smiled at w.a.n.g Lu, Du Yuxuan, and the others. He said, “You say you’re an adult every day and want to experience the life of an adult at a nightclub. Why can’t you do the same now?”
“Lin Bro, these people are such jerks. We really can’t handle them,” w.a.n.g Lu said with a smile. “We’re still flower buds.”
“Right, right, right, Uncle. We haven’t even gone to college yet. We don’t have the ability to handle this,” Du Yuxuan said.
Lin Yi looked up and saw the signboard of the store that read ‘Deyi Entrance Examination Training School’. However, the door was locked, and no staff could be seen inside.
“Where did they go?”
“They left just now. We didn’t stop them.”
“Okay, don’t worry. I have a friend coming over. She’ll take care of it.”
“Okay.”
If w.a.n.g Ying had said this, they wouldn’t be so confident.
However, it was different with Lin Yi.
He was someone on the same level as Qin Han, and it wasn’t a problem for him to handle such a small matter.
About ten minutes later, a white Mercedes-Benz E-cla.s.s drove in from outside the residential area.
After parking the car, Guo Rui took off her sungla.s.ses and walked in.
Guo Rui’s dressing was as mature and cla.s.sy as usual. She wore a dark-colored one-piece dress with flesh-colored stockings and high heels, giving off a virtuous and beautiful vibe.
Although she was old, Guo Rui’s temperament made w.a.n.g Lu and the others feel a deep sense of respect for her.
They stared at her with their eyes wide open.
“Why did you call me here in such a hurry?” Guo Rui asked with a smile.
“This training inst.i.tution is run by a teacher from your school, and it’s suspected being a scam inst.i.tution. Shouldn’t you deal with it?”
w.a.n.g Lu and the others were secretly surprised when they found out Guo Rui’s ident.i.ty.
Brother Lin knew people from the Zhonghai Drama Academy?
This was too impressive.
“Let’s talk over there.”
Guo Rui took Lin Yi to the side. Although the school forbade teachers from teaching outside, this kind of thing was common in the education world.
If that was really the case, it was better to keep a low profile so as not to ruin the school’s reputation.
“Let’s keep this a secret for now. I’ll see what’s going on first.” Guo Rui said.
“Over the past few years, the school has been strict about giving cla.s.ses outside of the school. They’ve already expelled a few faculty members over this. Logically speaking, this kind of thing shouldn’t be happening.”
“Could it be an imposter?”
“It’s possible,” Guo Rui said. “But we’ll have to see what’s going on before we can be certain.”
“Then this issue is even more interesting than I expected.”
“What are you guys doing!”
Just as Lin Yi was preparing his next move, he heard someone yelling.
“Lin Bro, she’s the one who cheated us out of our money!”
Lin Yi looked up and saw a middle-aged woman walking over from behind.
The woman was wearing a pair of shorts and a pink half-sleeve, and she didn’t look like an art teacher at all.
Compared to Guo Rui, they were like heaven and earth.
There were two dark-skinned men beside her, and they looked as if they were related to her.
“This village girl? Is she the one who cheated you out of your money?”
“Yes, yes, that’s her,” w.a.n.g Lu said.
“Her name is Zhang Xuemei. When we signed up, we discussed taking all the courses for the 7,000 yuan in our wallets, but now she says that we can only take two hours of cla.s.ses. She is obviously cheating us!”
“What’s wrong with two hours of cla.s.ses?” Zhang Xuemei shouted.
“Let me tell you, I’m a lecturer in the performing arts department of Zhonghai Drama Academy. 7,000 yuan for two hours is not considered expensive.”
“If you like the price, then join. If you don’t like it, then get lost. Do you think we have time to entertain everyone?” The young man scolded.
“Let me tell you, you all signed an agreement. If you want to go to cla.s.s, then pay the rest of the money. If you don’t want to go, then get out of here quickly. Don’t disrupt my business.”
“We don’t want to go to your cla.s.s. We just want the deposit back!”
“You country b.u.mpkins, don’t you understand what I’m saying?” Zhang Xuemei said.
“We have an agreement. Do you really think I’ll refund your deposit just like that?”
Zhang Xuemei dared to make such a big fuss because she knew that w.a.n.g Lu and the others were from a small third-tier city. That was the reason why she was so unscrupulous.
Lin Yi looked at Guo Rui. “What do you think we should do about this?”
Guo Rui shrugged. “They’ve already signed an agreement, so they’re protected by the law. Of course, we can’t get the money back.”
“Looks like you guys have some understanding people here too. I’ll cut to the chase then. Hurry up and open the door, don’t block the way,” Zhang Xuemei said impatiently.
“Don’t worry, of course we don’t want you to issue a refund, but as colleagues, shouldn’t we get to know each other first?”
“Huh? What did you say? Colleagues?”
Guo Rui nodded with a smile. “Let me introduce myself first. I’m Guo Rui, a professor at the Zhonghai Drama Academy. Are you a teacher in the acting department? Let me introduce myself.”
“You… you’re a professor of the Drama Academy?”
Guo Rui’s revelation made Zhang Xuemei’s smile instantly dissapear. She was so embarra.s.sed that her expression twisted.
“That… that’s really quite a coincidence. It’s actually a teacher from the same school.”
“It’s indeed quite a coincidence.” Guo Rui smiled and said, “But now, the school forbids teachers and staff from teaching to the public. Don’t you know that?”
“This…”
Zhang Xuemei was so embarra.s.sed that she didn’t know what to say.
A few local students from small third-tier cities actually found a teacher from the Zhonghai Drama Academy.
Was this normal?
“I already know of your ident.i.ty. I’ll inform the police to deal with it later.”
“Miss Guo, it’s useless to call the police. We’ve already done it before,” w.a.n.g Lu said.
“It’s different if I call them. They’ll deal with it quickly.”
The girls were secretly shocked and envious.
They were brushed off when they called the police, but when Miss Guo called, the matter would deal with quickly.
This was the difference status made in a big city.
Lin Yi stood at the side, smiling at Guo Rui.
No wonder she could become a university professor. There weren’t many people who could do something like this with a mild temperament.
“You… don’t go too far,” Zhang Xuemei said. “I’ve been running a training school for so many years, and I have connections.”
“I’m just doing my job,” Guo Rui said. “You should be glad that I’m the one handling this. If it were the gentleman next to me, your fate would be even worse.”
“I… I don’t care who he is. In any case, don’t go too far. Be careful, or I’ll find someone to deal with you!”
Guo Rui pointed at the Lykan behind her.
“Is your so-called network worth as much as that 60-million-yuan sports car?”
“What… what did you say? That sports car is yours?!”
“Of course.”
Zhang Xuemei collapsed to the ground and cried.
However, it didn’t affect the final result.
After the police arrived, Guo Rui revealed her ident.i.ty and Zhang Xuemei and the other two were taken away.
The deposit that everyone had paid was also returned on the spot.
This made w.a.n.g Lu and the others realize the strength of the upper cla.s.s once again.
An ordinary boss’s surname couldn’t be compared to this.
