Chapter 89: Asking Brother Zhao to Speak (1/2)

As the dean of studies finished speaking, Zhang Yang was already standing on the stage.

He held his donkey-like face high, standing upright, holding his speech. He first glanced at his beloved Fu Xiaoli in the audience, then loudly began to read.

“Students, parents, teachers, and leaders, hello, my name is Zhang Yang, from the senior third-year Class 2!”

“I vow in the name of youth.”

“Not to shrink back in cowardice, not to wander aimlessly, I will take on a calm smile to win the glory I am determined to achieve!”

…

The hall erupted in applause, like thunder.

It had to be said, Zhang Yang’s fearless performance was indeed impressive.

His parents were so excited that they shed tears of joy.

Their child speaking in front of so many people brought great honor to the Zhang family…

Qingfeng’s mother and Ding Xiang were also moved, continuously applauding.

Ding Xiang actually knew why Shen Lingyao wasn’t chosen as the student representative, which was precisely why she didn’t let Old Shen come.

“If only Little Feng could go up there too…”

Qingfeng’s mother looked at Zhao Qingfeng in the front row, thinking about the late Brother Zhao.

How happy he would have been to see his son stand tall and speak heart-moving words in front of everyone.

Unfortunately.

A class could only choose one representative.

Qingfeng’s mother snapped back to reality, while at the same time, Li Sibo’s mother beside her started to get excited, “Everyone pay attention, our Li Sibo is about to go on stage! I’m so excited, you know, they are all the same age, why is he so outstanding!”

Annoying, isn’t it?

It goes to show, the world is full of all sorts of people, nothing should be surprising.

After saying this, Li Sibo’s mother deliberately glanced at Qingfeng’s mother.

Qingfeng’s mother didn’t stoop to her level and smiled, “Congratulations, sister, I hope your child gets into Huaqing University soon.”

In the blink of an eye.

Zhang Yang finished his speech.

Principal Gao clapped, and Deputy County Chief Pang also applauded.

According to the plan, Zhang Yang should have immediately left the stage for Li Sibo to give the final representative speech and then lead the oath-taking.

Everything was going according to plan, but after putting down the microphone, Zhang Yang glanced at Zhao Qingfeng below and then picked up the microphone again, turning to Deputy County Chief Pang, “Mr. Pang, Brother Zhao says he wants to go up and say a few words.”

“Brother Zhao?”

The leaders on stage were confused. Who was Brother Zhao?

“Him!”

Zhang Yang pointed at Zhao Qingfeng below, “Brother Zhao said that as the potential top scorer of this year’s university entrance examination, he wants to go up and share his thoughts in advance. He said he knows you are a magnanimous person, and will surely give him a chance.”

He said this on the microphone.

Everyone present heard it loud and clear.

The hall immediately turned chaotic.

This was supposed to be a well-organized oath-taking ceremony, wasn’t this causing trouble?

Qingfeng’s mother was startled and hurried to the front to pull Zhao Qingfeng back, “Little Feng, what does Zhang Yang mean by this, did you teach him this?”

Shen Lingyao didn’t know Zhao Qingfeng would instruct Zhang Yang to do this and immediately scolded him, pinching his ear, “Brother Qingfeng, what are you letting him say nonsense for, go apologize to the teachers right now…”

Zhang Yang’s parents were extremely worried, sitting in their seats speechless.

Old Yan hurried over, followed by Old Bian.

Both glared at Zhao Qingfeng, but due to the special circumstances, were too angry to know what to say.

At this moment, the most unhappy were Li Sibo and his mother.

Li Sibo, who was prepared to go on stage but hadn’t yet, glanced over, glaring fiercely at Zhao Qingfeng.

He believed Zhao Qingfeng was doing this in retaliation for the note he wrote to Shen Lingyao last time, deliberately causing trouble before going on stage, truly a cunning villain!

Indeed.
