"Thank you."
"This is..."
"Hello."
...
Seven or eight leaders of various ranks came, and Qiao Yu managed to become familiar with all of them.
Everyone said a few words, which took about ten minutes. Luckily, the arrival area was quite shady, or Qiao Yu might have lost his patience standing in the sun.
Finally, it was time to talk to Director Zhang and the good guy.
Seeing them made Qiao Yu's smile much more sincere. After all, he truly appreciated the difference between offering help in times of need and just adding to one's success.
"Principal Zhang, Teacher Lan, so glad to see you!"
"We can't call him Principal Zhang anymore; now it's Director Zhang! Also, congratulations, Qiao Yu!" Lan Jie eagerly picked up the conversation and corrected him.
"Hello, Director Zhang!"
"Oh, stop it, you're embarrassing me. Congratulations, Qiao Yu! Your Fields Medal really boosted the prestige of Xingtie First Middle School! From now on, our school might have to rely on your help!"
