Chapter 832 Standing up to Injustice

He had continuous cla.s.ses.

After the first period, there would be a 10-minute break in the middle, and the next cla.s.s would still be this one.

After a.s.sistant Professor Yang had finished the two cla.s.ses, he packed up his teaching materials and went straight to Princ.i.p.al Mus office.

Is Princ.i.p.al Mu here? He went to ask his a.s.sistant.

The a.s.sistant saw his angry look and did not dare to dally at all. He immediately said, Yes, please wait a moment.

The a.s.sistant quickly went to knock on the princ.i.p.als door.

Mr. Princ.i.p.al, a.s.sistant Professor Yang is here to see you, the a.s.sistant said at the door and winked at Princ.i.p.al Mu, trying to let him know that a.s.sistant Professor Yang was in a bad mood.

He did not know if Princ.i.p.al Mu had understood, but the latter replied enthusiastically, Quickly let Mr. Yang in.

When a.s.sistant Professor Yang heard Princ.i.p.al Mus words, he did not wait for the a.s.sistant to pa.s.s on the message and entered directly.

Why are you still carrying the teaching materials? You didnt take them back to the office, but you carried them all the way here? Princ.i.p.al Mu hurriedly stood up, took the teaching materials from a.s.sociate Professor Yang and placed them on his desk temporarily. Come, lets sit on the sofa. How heavy it must have been for you to carry them all the way here.

There was a tea tray on the coffee table in front of the sofa.

When Princ.i.p.al Mu had nothing to do, he liked to make some tea for himself to drink.

There was hot water boiling nearby, so Princ.i.p.al Mu grabbed some tea leaves and put them into the teapot.

He then poured hot water into the teapot.

a.s.sistant Professor Yang said, Dont go to the trouble. Im only here to say a few words.

Even if its just for a while, you have to drink something! How could you just sit empty-handed? Princ.i.p.al Mu poured hot water and first rinsed the teacup with the first batch of tea.

The teacup carried the fragrance of tea, and the tea leaves had also been rinsed.

This set of teacups had beautiful patterns from the princ.i.p.als careful treatment of it.

Come, Mr. Yang, have a sip of tea first. To douse the flames.

a.s.sociate Professor Yang picked up the teacup. It was small, and it contained only a sip of tea.

However, because it was hot, he only took a small sip.

After putting down the teacup, he heard Princ.i.p.al Mu say, Mr. Yang, what made you so angry?

It was not time for the t.i.tle evaluation yet.

Furthermore, their schools t.i.tle evaluation was very fair. There were not any messy matters.

a.s.sistant Professor Yang usually had a good temper. He would not get angry.

Moreover, he was Professor Guos student. Who would dare to make him angry?

The atmosphere in their teachers office was also particularly good. Princ.i.p.al Mu had not heard of any discord between teachers recently.

However, he was still very concerned about this matter.

Discord between the teachers could easily make it onto the social news if it were to get blown up.

This would have an awfully bad impact on the image of their school.

Did the students make you angry? President Mu asked again. Recently, the freshmen of the Mathematics Department have been dissatisfied with the matter of Tan Mo being the teaching a.s.sistant. Its blown up quite a bit. You know about this matter, right? a.s.sociate Professor Yang said.

I did hear about it. President Mu nodded.

So it really was about the students, he thought to himself.

He just did not know why a.s.sociate Professor Yang was angry.

Could it be that he was also dissatisfied with his decision to let Tan Mo become a teaching a.s.sistant?

That should not be the case! When they had held the meeting to discuss this matter back then, it had been unanimously approved.

a.s.sociate Professor Yang had not raised any objections either.

Moreover, Professor Guo was incredibly supportive of Tan Mo teaching in the Mathematics Department. As Professor Guos student, a.s.sociate Professor Yang would definitely support Professor Guos opinion.

Then why did you just sit back and let those students cause a ruckus? a.s.sociate Professor Yang said unhappily, This is really stressful on Tan Mo.

So he was here to seek justice for her.

President Mu heaved a sigh of relief and said, I was thinking that Tan Mo has some real skills. Mathematics isnt a subject where one can just muddle through it. Whether she has the ability or not, well know once we a.s.sess her. Tan Mo would naturally be able to use her capabilities to convince others. Once that time comes, they wont be able to stir anything up. Youre sure taking the backseat here. You were the one who let Tan Mo teach. But now that youve caused the students to be dissatisfied, you dont care anymore and choose to let Tan Mo bear the pressure herself, a.s.sociate Professor Yang said unhappily, Thats not how one treats others!

I think you might as well let Tan Mo teach the older students! From the second year to the graduate students, they are all eager for Tan Mo to teach them. Would you still need to rush to seek the approval of the freshmen then? a.s.sociate Professor Yang said, Tan Mo is a talent and has won so much glory for our school. Why should she be suffering amongst the first-year students? In the future, theyll know what they have lost and regret it!

I heard from Dean Yao that yesterday, the second, third, fourth year, and graduate students all went to see him. They all want Tan Mo to teach them. And they are also very dissatisfied with the att.i.tude of the freshmen toward Tan Mo

Since the freshmen dont like to learn, even if you let Tan Mo teach them, it would be half the effort, said a.s.sociate Professor Yang, Its better to let Tan Mo teach those who are willing to learn. The teaching a.s.sistants aside, even the kids wouldnt object to letting Tan Mo teach them alone.

Im just thinking of laying a foundation for the freshmen, said Princ.i.p.al Mu.

Are the students in our school not having a solid foundation or something? If they dont like to learn, its useless no matter how we try. Itd be better to let the eager learners study properly, a.s.sociate Professor Yang said.

I think the group of students who went to approach Dean Yao made a lot of sense. If you say you want to lay a good foundation, its actually not too late to start from the soph.o.m.ore year, he continued.

Now, Tan Mo is responsible for real variable functions and topology, which are only set up in the first semester. The second-year students only learned these two courses in the first semester of the first year, which means that they just learned them not long ago. Its completely possible to let Tan Mo teach them now.

Whats more, itd be possible to let Tan Mo teach the third- and fourth-year students. Its just in time for them to register for the math compet.i.tion. Our teaching team, together with Tan Mo, has a higher chance of winning this years math compet.i.tion. Look at the compet.i.tion last time. Tan Mo, as a partic.i.p.ating student, only gave her teammates some questions to brush up on those topics. All of that ended up greatly improving our students results in the math compet.i.tion. If we let Tan Mo teach them properly, who would still care about Hua University? a.s.sociate Professor Yang said.

Princ.i.p.al Mu:

What he said was so reasonable that he was speechless.

Also, the group of students who are currently in graduate school also have a point. They are learning more deeply. Wouldnt it be better if they had the opportunity to communicate with Tan Mo so that we could cultivate more talents? a.s.sociate Professor Yang said, Anyway its much better than teaching a freshman. Its hard and unrewarding, and they cant get the respect of those students.

a.s.sociate Professor Yang told him about those students deliberately asking tough questions to make things difficult for Tan Mo.

They just want to see her mess up, but houw could Tan Mo not know the answers to those questions? Theyre all peanuts to her. But knowing how to answer them doesnt mean that Tan Mo has to tolerate their willfulness and rudeness.
