Her Kindergarten is Full of Villainous Students - Chapter 243

Starry Sky Kindergarten didn’t finish their livestream until after 8 PM.

Many exciting segments had already been edited out in advance and caused quite a stir after being reposted on public accounts.

The other kindergartens in the city were particularly disheartened.

Starry Sky Kindergarten had 200,000 applicants for only 500 spots. In the group chats for kindergarten principals, everyone was complaining.

“Where did they find so many people?”

“It’s so hard to recruit students these days, yet they can afford to be picky.”

“Sometimes I really hate that I can read.”

Everyone gathered together saying things like this.

Before, they could at least complain about not being able to recruit students.

But now they were too embarrassed to say that, as it would be too humiliating.

Starry Sky Kindergarten had 200,000 applicants, showing there were plenty of potential students. If they couldn’t attract them, it was clearly their own problem.

Somehow, they had inadvertently started to gaslight themselves.

In the past, at least Noble Kindergarten could hold its ground for a while.

But ever since Noble Kindergarten fell from grace, Starry Sky Kindergarten had been unstoppable, with no rivals left in the kindergarten arena.

The other kindergartens were all envious of Starry Sky Kindergarten’s popularity.

The gap was glaringly obvious.

Today, almost all the teachers and principals in the city watched the livestream, coveting all the promising students being selected.

This time, as soon as Starry Sky Kindergarten announced their wealthy class, it was immediately fully enrolled in less than half an hour.

The tuition fee of 20,000 yuan per month made many who managed to secure a spot feel lucky.

This time, children didn’t have to compete with various world champions for spots.

Other parents who were late to the game complained about their husbands’ slow reflexes, not being able to secure a spot in 30 minutes. They really had to blame themselves for this.

“I told you to keep a close eye on Starry Sky Kindergarten’s enrollment. This was a rare opportunity. According to Starry Sky’s usual practice, the next chance won’t come until next year.”

The husband wore a bitter expression. He hadn’t expected that taking his eyes off his phone for a moment would lead to missing out on such an important matter.

He then asked, “So what do we do now?”

They could afford to wait, but their child couldn’t waste a year. He said, “Why don’t we just go to Noble Kindergarten?”

As soon as the words left his mouth, his wife rejected the idea.

In the past, Noble Kindergarten had a decent reputation in the city, and their newly built equestrian center catered to noble young masters.

But ever since they insulted commoner students last time, everyone’s impression of them had hit rock bottom.

Even though such incidents had decreased, Noble Kindergarten would no longer be anyone’s first choice.

It was said that the very capable principal of Noble Kindergarten had resigned.

She had joined an unremarkable kindergarten.

His wife planned to inquire about it, after all, a woman who could once navigate between wealthy families must have some skills.

The place she chose might not be bad.

…

At this moment, the former principal of Noble Kindergarten, watching Starry Sky Kindergarten’s all-day livestream, felt a mix of emotions.

She had served at Noble Kindergarten for over 10 years.

If not for her achievements, at least she had put in the hard work.

Moreover, Noble Kindergarten’s most prosperous years were largely due to her ability to navigate between various wealthy families.

But recently, with Starry Sky Kindergarten’s successive successes, the higher-ups were very dissatisfied. Coupled with several critical mistakes, her opponents in the unit finally joined forces with the shareholders to oust her.

After leaving, the principal initially wanted to rest for a few years.

Suddenly, she heard that her former employer regretted their decision and wanted her to sign a non-compete agreement, preventing her from working in this field. That wouldn’t do – she didn’t know how to do anything else after all these years.

So she immediately joined a new kindergarten.

She feared her old employer might make new moves.

Taking the initiative to strike first.

This new company also had some connections with Shen Wei.

The new boss was also from the second-generation rich circle. The boss’s family was in the pharmaceutical business and quite wealthy.

When Shen Wei made Starry Sky Kindergarten successful, many people were surprised to discover that the kindergarten sector was a new and promising field.

It was essential for every family.

If managed well, it would bring great prestige.

These were all intangible assets.

So many second-generation rich people focused on starting kindergartens.

But from opening to closing, it only took about half a year.

This kindergarten had been operating for over a year and had hired many experienced teachers from the industry.

It was running steadily, if not spectacularly. It couldn’t compare to Starry Sky Kindergarten.

It couldn’t even reach 1/10 of Starry Sky Kindergarten’s level.

So when they heard that Noble Kindergarten’s principal had resigned, the boss hired her with a high salary, offering an annual salary of one million yuan.

Just as she joined and was planning to implement major reforms, she heard that Starry Sky Kindergarten had announced their enrollment. She suddenly felt dizzy.

It was a familiar feeling. That sense of helplessness in the face of absolute strength, when all other tactics become useless, and one can only step aside for Starry Sky Kindergarten. Otherwise, with her experience, she knew that going head-to-head would definitely not end well.

She then opened the large group chat for kindergarten principals, where many were wailing.

Every move Starry Sky Kindergarten made

Was like rubbing the other kindergartens’ faces in the dirt.

The principal used to be quite good at judging people.

The only one she misjudged was Shen Wei.

She had predicted that Starry Sky Kindergarten wouldn’t last two years, but instead, it grew more prosperous with each passing year.

In the edited versions online, she even saw Best Actor Song’s daughter and Pop Star Zhou’s son.

These two children had gained quite a following from that variety show back then.

They weren’t even from this city, yet they bought houses here just to attend this kindergarten.

No wonder the new district treasured Starry Sky Kindergarten so much. Who wouldn’t like something that could stimulate domestic demand like this?

She never imagined that someone she once didn’t even consider a rival would inadvertently grow into such a behemoth.

Then her former confidant, Teacher Zhang, called her and said, “Are you still hiring? If so, I’d like to come work for you.”

“What’s wrong?” the principal asked.

Teacher Zhang’s voice was full of resentment: “Those who used to be close to you are now being mistreated by the new leadership in various ways. Now they’re talking about a rotation system, and this week it’s my turn to clean the toilets. Isn’t this just a way to torment people?”

“My family tells me not to resign, to let them fire me so I can get N+1 severance pay, but with my temper, I really can’t stand it for even one day.”

But that wasn’t all Teacher Zhang wanted to complain about.

Since the principal had left, all those children from wealthy families had been withdrawn, saying they were going to Starry Sky Kindergarten.

Back then, it took tremendous effort to attract even one child from a wealthy family.

Now, having angered these wealthy families and having them withdraw their children was a huge blow to the kindergarten.

Without these noble children, there would be no substantial investments.

It might not be apparent right now, but in the future, times would definitely be tough.

The principal said, “But the place I’ve joined is a small unit. Your rank and salary are too high, they might not be able to afford you.”

Teacher Zhang was somewhat disappointed and then hung up the phone.

She started inquiring about Starry Sky Kindergarten everywhere.

After all, she had been a key staff member at what was once the top Noble Kindergarten in the industry for many years.

If all else failed, she thought about joining Starry Sky Kindergarten.

However, Noble Kindergarten had previously cultivated a culture of looking down on others while elevating themselves.

Shen Wei had already informed everyone not to hire anyone from Noble Kindergarten.

So Teacher Zhang was once again firmly rejected.
