My Son Might Be A Villain

“I didn’t think I would ever get to know someone so important in this lifetime. This feels so surreal. Han-ge, quick, tell me that it was all real!”

Having said that, he saw that Su Han was looking coldly at the direction where the car had disappeared into with his mouth shut as though he was dazed. Liu YangYang lifted his hand and waved it a few times in front of Su Han. 

“Han-ge, Han-ge? What’s the matter? You are dazed by it too?”

“You think that’s possible?” replied Su Han coldly. 

“No? Not possible? Han-ge, it’s okay if you tell me the truth. I promise I won’t make fun of you.” 

“Besides, you sure you know him?” said Su Han with his brows raised. 

“I… I misspoke, alright? I’ve met him, is that better? That being said…” Liu YangYang suddenly frowned and lifted his hand and touched his own chin. He cocked his head and mumbled, “Speaking of, why do I feel that that very important person looks so familiar? Could he be a low-key distant relative of mine….? No no no. Nah. Just that look alone wouldn’t have anything to do with my family. So why is it that he looks so familiar? Where have I seen him before?”

“Hey, hey! Han-ge? Did you just leave without me? Wait up!”

Inside the principal’s office.

Sitting across from the man on the couch, the principal has a somewhat cautious look.

“Have some tea, Mr. Lu. We didn’t know you were coming, so we didn’t have everything ready.”

“That’s fine. I just wanted to look around.”

Principle: Haha. 

Yeah, right. You are here to “just look around”, but he had to frantically have others put together all the information. 

“In that case, what does Mr. Lu think about our school?” asked the principal with hope in his eyes. 

The Lu’s had already informed them about the issue on the current location of the school. It’d entail a lot to move the school elsewhere; ideally, the school could remain where it was and the Lu’s would even invest in it. 

“Not too bad,” said Lu Shao. Then, after a couple-second pause, he went on, “This area, that is.”

The smile that was just about to appear on the principal’s face froze, and his mood dropped to the bottom of the valley. 

“Ha, haha, yeah.” The principal, maintaining a smile on his face, said dryly, “It is precisely because we are well located that both campus and students are superb. It’s ranked #5 in the entire city.”

After the principal looked over at the door anxiously several times, the director finally returned with a large pile of documents in his hands. 

The principal’s eyes lit up. 

“Mr. Lu, here’s the latest analysis on our latest staff and student qualifications. You will also see where our students ranked in the national examinations in the past five years and many awards that they have won in all sorts of competitions… please take a look.”

“Mmm,” said Lu Shao. He only glanced over at the pile of data for a few seconds before he looked away. 

“So, Principal Wang thinks that this is a very good school?”

“Yes, let it be our pedagogy, research, and early cultivation of the students in the area of artistic talents, we are among the top in the city. We also have a good balance between our quality of teaching, school spirit, and school discipline. In addition, …”

“Does that include your students skipping class and wandering around on campus in the middle of the day? That is part of your school discipline?” Recalling what he had seen earlier, Lu Shao interrupted the principal who was going on and on and asked. 

“Ugh…” What skipping class? Who’s wandering around? He didn’t know about any of those. 

“That was an oversight on our part and we will look into that immediately. As for the students that you have brought up, we will seriously educate and critique them, and even penalize them if necessary.”

“Educate them, yes. I don’t think critiquing them will be necessary.”

“Oh? Yes, of course. Then, about our school’s…”

“I’m a businessman. I don’t care about where your students rank or how many awards they have received. What I care about is if I was to keep the school and even invest money into it, what will I gain from it?”

“That…”

“I’ve got to go,” said Lu Shao before he got up and left.
