Chapter 526 - 525 Strong Contrast
Principal Zhou’s face was livid; he did not respond to Dong Hui’s remark.
Dong Hui was even more elated. For years, his school had been at the bottom among these middle schools, and he had been holding back a lot of frustration.
The vice-principals from other schools could swagger around in his place.
And now, finally, it was his turn to shine!
"Principal Zhou, why don’t you go back and let Principal Wang know," Dong Hui said with a smile, "I’ve arranged for a table this evening, inviting him over for a meal. Oh yes, Principal Zhou, make sure you come too!"
Principal Zhou’s expression grew even uglier. Dong Hui was deliberately setting up their principal for humiliation.
"Our principal doesn’t have time, and I don’t have time tonight either!" snapped Principal Zhou, teeth clenched. Of course, he wouldn’t go and make a fool of himself.
"Really? Is Principal Wang that busy?" Dong Hui scratched his head and chuckled, "Well, that’s fine, suit yourselves. Anyway, I have invited the city bureau chief and several deputy chiefs, and we will also invite principals from all the middle schools in the city. This is a big event, a cause for celebration, and the city bureau is very supportive. If Principal Wang and Principal Zhou can’t make it, I’ll trouble you to call the city bureau to request leave in advance."
Principal Zhou was nearly driven mad with rage. Damn it, calling the city bureau to request leave? That was asking for trouble! Dong Hui was doing this on purpose; they couldn’t just not show up!
"I... I’ll go back and tell Principal Wang right away..." said Principal Zhou, almost through gritted teeth.
"No rush, no rush, dinner isn’t until tonight. There’s plenty of time!" Dong Hui said with a laugh. "By the way, when you leave later, remember to take your students with you. As for that ’summary meeting,’ I advise you not to have it. We’ll have one here instead; why don’t you come to ours?"
