Chapter 368: Chapter 368: This is Called Vision

Cai Zhiqiang was suddenly at a loss for words, his eyes filled with incredulous astonishment.

Had he heard that Yang Yu was admitted to Yanjing University as a graduate student, he wouldn’t have been so shocked.

But Yang Yu donating fifty million to build the "Seeking Knowledge Building" for the school was something he never could have imagined in his lifetime.

After scolding Cai Zhiqiang, Principal Hu immediately turned around with a smile plastered on his face, "Yang Yu, now that you’re here, please come in. Soon, you’ll be giving a speech as our school’s exemplary alumnus!"

"Principal Hu, the thing is, I’ve always been low-key and don’t like these kinds of events, which is why I didn’t reveal my identity when I made the donation," Yang Yu said. "But what I never imagined was that my respected teacher, who dedicated decades of sincere work to this school, would be humiliated by you as she nears retirement, not even granted a proper seat at the anniversary celebration."

"I’m wondering, if this is how the school treats its dedicated teachers, is there really any point in continuing to donate money for its development?"

Principal Hu had never anticipated that one day a student would give him a lesson in moral education.

But Yang Yu wasn’t just any student; with the ease of donating fifty million, he was undoubtedly a top-tier tycoon. What was wrong with a principal receiving a bit of moral education from someone like that?

So, Principal Hu took a very humble stance, "Exactly, exactly, Yang Yu, you’re absolutely right. It’s all my fault, my oversight. I was always thinking about not letting down the alumni who donate a lot of money, forgetting that whether someone donates more or less, all of you are treasured alumni of our school."

Although Yang Yu did not know what Principal Hu was truly thinking, his flattering words sounded quite pleasant to the ear, and Yang Yu nodded in approval repeatedly, "It’s true that alumni donate out of respect for their former teachers. Whenever I think of my own mentor..."

"I understand, I completely understand," Principal Hu quickly interrupted, chuckling, "Teacher Ding must be a representative of our school’s outstanding teachers. I’ve long intended to nominate her for the Provincial Outstanding Teacher Award. Rest assured, Yang Yu, I’ll arrange it right after the anniversary celebration ends. Can you all go in now?"

"Principal Hu is indeed a good principal, but some people misrepresent his intentions, which has caused a tremendously bad impression on the school," Yang Yu gave Principal Hu some face, and then aimed his criticism at Director Lan, "Just now, a certain director said that if the principal were to come out and invite me in, he would need to kowtow first."

Upon hearing this, Director Lan’s face turned green, "Yang Yu, I have never said such a thing! It wasn’t the principal I was talking about; I said that about myself, okay?"

"Oh, you finally admit it!" Yang Yu glanced at Director Lan, "So tell me, are you going to kowtow or not?"

Director Lan’s face was the picture of misery, on the verge of tears, "Yang Yu, I was wrong, please forgive me."

"No, I don’t really care whether you apologize to me or not, I’m just defending my teacher’s honor," Yang Yu said. "Who you should apologize to, I don’t need to spell that out, do I?"

Director Lan hastily bowed deeply to Teacher Ding, "Teacher Ding, I shouldn’t have ridiculed you, nor should I have treated you like that. I’m sorry."

It was only then that Teacher Ding recovered from the shock, flustered and honored, "It’s alright, it’s alright, let’s not delay the anniversary celebration. Yang Yu, let’s just leave it at that."

"Okay, Teacher Ding," Yang Yu nodded, "Principal, let’s go in. We won’t take any other alumni’s seats; just move these chairs inside. Anywhere will do, just make sure Teacher Ding’s seat is arranged properly."

Principal Hu had thought that Yang Yu, like other wealthy bigwigs, would insist on making a big fuss and not let go of the matter, but it turned out a simple apology from Director Lan was enough, which delighted him, "No problem at all, Director Lan, arrange it immediately, and once it’s all set, you all can go in."

Those alumni who had mocked Yang Yu before had also finally come to their senses, apologizing to him, "Yang Yu, sorry, I was too arrogant just now."

"Yang Yu, I shouldn’t have spoken to you like that, I’m sorry."

"It’s nothing," Yang Yu said with a smile, "We’re all Teacher Ding’s good students, like brothers and sisters. Don’t worry about such a small matter."

Seeing how Yang Yu handled the situation with a clear sense of priorities and weight, Teacher Ding couldn’t help but sigh with emotion, "Yang Yu, I don’t know what you’ve been through these past three years, but it’s really shaped the one who used to do nothing but study into someone so mature and capable."

"You knew full well that all this was Principal Hu’s doing, and Director Lan was just following orders, yet you only gave Principal Hu a light nudge, letting Director Lan take the main blame. I’ve really learned something from the way you handle things."

Yang Yu laughed, "Teacher Ding, you still have a year or two to work at this school, and there’s no need for me to offend the man in charge here and cause him to harbor resentment towards you."

"As for teaching Director Lan a lesson, he might even have to thank me later, because I’ve given him the chance to take the fall for the principal. Believe it or not, once you retire, Teacher Ding, Director Lan will at least become a vice-principal."

Everyone was impressed by Yang Yu’s words, his youthful age contradicting his sage wisdom.

Teacher Ding was right. What trials must he have gone through to emerge as the man he is now?

Seeing Cai Zhiqiang still dazed, Yang Yu gave him a look, "Cai Zhiqiang, as a representative of the exemplary students, shouldn’t you be inside preparing your speech instead of just standing here gawking?"

"Yang Yu, are you mocking me?" Cai Zhiqiang said dejectedly, "My grades aren’t as good as yours, and to think, even if you were just a bricklayer, I still wouldn’t compare. Principal Hu said, you are the exemplary student, so I won’t embarrass myself further."

With that, Cai Zhiqiang turned to leave.

"Wait," Yang Yu called out to him, "you give the speech. For one thing, I don’t like making such speeches, and for another, I don’t want the school to keep promoting a value system that only respects money."

"If I go up there to speak, everyone will think, oh, having money means being exemplary, even if one hasn’t even attended college."

Cai Zhiqiang looked surprised, "Do you really think that?"

"Yeah, why would I joke about this with you?" Yang Yu responded, "Money is indeed very important, but to me, family, friends, classmates, teachers... anyone close to me, they are more important than money."

"Our Teacher Ding not only taught us knowledge, but also how to be good people. She’s a teacher of high integrity and noble character. Just now, she taught us another lesson: in everything we do, we must have a clear conscience and not align everything with fame and profit."

Cai Zhiqiang was filled with shame and embarrassment by Yang Yu’s words.

What is called a vision? This is called a vision!

To think that he was admitted to the best university in the country, yet his heart was so small, and envy had made him look monstrous.

That shouldn’t be, it really shouldn’t!
