The Dazzling Princess in Modern Times

Chapter 928: Not Wanting Children Again

As soon as the student finished speaking, the others echoed.

“It's true, it's true. Professor Xia, you taught me very well. What I look forward to most every day is coming to your class.”

“Don't listen to those people's bullshit. I think they're just jealous of your talent. Professor Xia, you are my dew.”

Xia Wanyuan stood on the podium and looked down. A pair of clear eyes were filled with trust and affirmation for him.

Actually, after hearing School Head Yang's words, Xia Wanyuan did not feel much. The title of professor was the same for her, no matter whether she had it or not, but now, seeing so many people supporting and looking forward to it, Xia Wanyuan suddenly felt that standing on this podium, she was not, he has taken on a lot of responsibility and hope. He shouldn't have given up just yet.

“Thank you all.” Xia Wanyuan smiled faintly. “I'll still be standing here tomorrow.”

In the end, Xia Wanyuan walked out of the classroom under the applause of all the students.

Although they were young, they told Xia Wanyuan in their own way that they were all standing behind him.

Xia Wanyuan now had tens of millions of web traffic. As long as there is news related to him, marketing accounts can't wait to upload it to the media 24 hours a day.

Furthermore, it was a major issue as reported anonymously by the National Teacher Front.

For the sake of popularity, a marketing account comes up with a rather sensational title.

“Xia Wanyuan is being boycotted by the National Teacher Front.”

All the major media outlets also went into the water. With the support of the news media, some teachers who had only dared to ask behind the scenes also stood in public.

“We studied hard for 22 years and graduated with a bachelor's degree. We studied for three years to earn a master's degree, and another three years for a Ph.D. In the blink of an eye, we were almost 30 years old before we barely obtained the qualifications to enter university as lecturers. By the time we receive a professional evaluation, we will be retired. Some teachers cannot even be considered professors. How old is Xia Wanyuan this year? He is only 22 years old and is a double professor at a top university in China. I just wanted to ask, why? Why did Xia Wanyuan's promotion not need to follow the rules of the education system? Are rules used to control honest people like us?”

The sincere words of these teachers immediately caused a heated discussion.

[Emm, although I really like Xia Wanyuan, from the looks of it, Xia Wanyuan, the professor of these two faculties, seems illegitimate.]

[Xia Wanyuan is a member of the International Association of Painters. Do you know what this means? I don't know much about the literature department, but based on Xia Wanyuan's achievements in painting, I think there's nothing wrong with her being a professor.]

[What about the literature professor? Literature requires a lot of accumulation. Xia Wanyuan was only 22 years old, right? If I were a teacher from another school, I would definitely not be sure. He became a professor of literature at Qing University at such a young age.]

Public opinion on the Internet abounds. In the end, the Education Bureau was unable to withstand the pressure and directly applied it to Qing University, asking for an explanation.

Qing University remained silent from beginning to end. No matter how the netizens asked, there was no answer.

Xia Wanyuan, who was standing in the middle of public opinion, was writing furiously on her desk.

After returning from school yesterday, Xia Wanyuan specifically examined the requirements to be awarded a professor degree in the country. Although there are limits to one's academic qualifications, if the number of papers published in the core journals reaches a certain amount and the contribution to academics is large enough, Qing University can also loosen its limits and stop public talks.

Xia Wanyuan sat in the study for four hours. Downstairs, Jun Shiling looked at the time and finally unwillingly barged in.

Jun Shiling walked over and pressed down on Xia Wanyuan's hand that was writing. “Stop writing. View the time.”

Only then did Xia Wanyuan look up at that moment. “Why is it late?”

Jun Shiling pulled the pen from Xia Wanyuan's hand. “Can you listen to my suggestion?”

“Do not become a literature professor first.” Jun Shiling reached out to massage Xia Wanyuan's shoulders. “They will invite you back someday.”

He knew best how tired Xia Wanyuan was because of the lack of research projects in the country. She also knew how big Xia Wanyuan's role was in it.

Those people only saw that Xia Wanyuan had occupied the position of professor at Qing University, but they could not see how much he had sacrificed. Then he had to leave, and see if they could complete the project without Xia Wanyuan.

Xia Wanyuan half closed her eyes and nodded. “Oke.”

After all, it wasn't easy for school leaders to get caught in the middle. If he resigns, the school can explain to the outside world.

“Then stop writing now. Go and rest.” Jun Shiling lifted Xia Wanyuan's waist. “If you torture yourself, I will feel uncomfortable with you.”

After being placed on the bed by Jun Shiling, Xia Wanyuan hugged Jun Shiling's neck and did not let go. “After I resign, I won't be attending class tomorrow. CEO Jun, I miss you.”

Xia Wanyuan's words were like fuses connected to a pile of gunpowder, instantly lighting Jun Shiling's fire. Jun Shiling's body instantly stiffened, and his breathing became hasty. He lowered his head and kissed Xia Wanyuan's lips.

Dry firewood collides with fire. Jun Shiling immediately lost control and flipped over with Xia Wanyuan.

However, in the next second, a childish voice came from under the blanket. “Aiya, there is a small monster.”

Jun Shiling and Xia Wanyuan immediately parted ways. Xia Wanyuan lifted the blanket beside her. Under the blanket, Xiao Bao rubbed his sleepy eyes and looked up. “Bu, I waited for you for a long time. I fell asleep while waiting.”

“Xiao Bao, why are you here?” Xia Wanyuan reached out to tuck her hair behind her ears and tidied her clothes.

“Didn't Dad ask me to sleep with Mom yesterday?” Xiao Bao pouted, his large eyes filled with praise. “Dad, see if I obey. I didn't ask you to call me today, so I came obediently!”

“…”

Jun Shiling's expression was as black as ice.

“Mother, sleep!” Xiao Bao hugged Xia Wanyuan's arm and lay happily between Xia Wanyuan and Jun Shiling. Yesterday, Dad let me lie down like this!

“OK, sleep.” Xia Wanyuan patted Xiao Bao on the back and looked at the sad Jun Shiling. He couldn't help but laugh. Jun Shiling glanced at him with hatred in his eyes.

Xia Wanyuan waved at Jun Shiling. Jun Shiling bowed and heard Xia Wanyuan whisper into his ear, “Wait until Xiao Bao falls asleep.”

Xia Wanyuan's scent mixed with the heat from the blanket that was stuck around Jun Shiling. Jun Shiling clenched his fists.

He did not want to wait for Jun Yin to fall asleep. He doesn't want his son anymore. Anyone who wants their son can take him away.

Xiao Bao looked extremely excited today and continued to bother Xia Wanyuan to tell her the story. Xia Wanyuan patiently coaxed her to sleep.

......................

At the same time, Qing University, which had been silent for a long time, finally posted a late-night Weibo post. It's just a very simple sentence.

@ Qing University: “Xia Wanyuan has resigned as professor of literature at Qing University. His position as a professor in the art department remains. All teachers and students of Qing University are very sorry.”
