Chapter 7: Renowned in Zhonghai
The phone call left Li Xuan frowning. With no knowledge of the caller's intentions, the situation seemed suspicious.
Could it be that the police were already after him?
In an instant, Li Xuan's brain was racing, analyzing various possibilities. He even scanned the people around him from the corner of his eye.
His muscles tensed, and he prepared himself to escape if necessary.
However, the elderly voice on the other end continued, "Hello, Li Xuan. I am Zhong Xibei."
Hearing the name, Li Xuan's nerves relaxed a bit. He cleared his throat and cautiously asked, "Principal Zhong?"
"Hehehe... Not bad, young man. You know who I am," replied Zhong Xibei, the principal of Zhonghai No.1 High School. He was the driving force behind transforming the school from an ordinary high school to a top-tier one. The surge of seven-hundred-point scores this year had delighted the old principal.
Feeling relieved by Zhong Xibei's tone, Li Xuan responded modestly, "I am a student of No.1 High School, so I know the principal's name."
Zhong Xibei chuckled and said, "You have a way with words, but now you are more famous than this old man."
"Our Education Bureau's Director Song even called to congratulate you."
Hearing this, Li Xuan's eyebrows furrowed.
