Chapter 29 Conning My Cousin Has to Be Done Step by Step
Lunch in the canteen.
Chu Xiaoxiao and Qin Yanran carried their plates and came to Jiang Han’s side. They spoke in unison.
“Cousin (Principal), you look so handsome with the hood on!”
Jiang Han’s face was stern. “Don’t talk about the hood!”
After saying that, Jiang Han muttered in puzzlement, “Which part did it go wrong that it got recorded?”
Chu Xiaoxiao said, “Cousin, the news about our school is spreading like wildfire on Douyin. Aren’t you going to take a look?”
Jiang Han ate a mouthful of meat. “What’s there to look at? It’s just a mere online discussion, yet it wants to affect our determination to pursue magic?”
“Let me tell you. Learning magic requires you to ignore the affairs of the world, follow your heart, and not be disturbed by the outside world!”
“These online discussions can stop trying to ruin my mind!”
The students followed suit, “The principal is
right!”
“Brat, don’t ruin my mind!”
“We have the heart to persevere and pursue magic!”
The atmosphere was built up, and Jiang Han continued to eat with his head lowered.
At the same time, he used the system to check the popularity of the magic school on the internet.
It was currently “Rising Fame”, and its popularity had already reached 150,000.
More than 800,000 popularity would be needed until the next upgrade to “Widely Known”.
Jiang Han was very anxious to increase the school’s popularity because every time the popularity increased, it would bring a different reward to the school.
Some hardware facilities would be added.
At this moment, in Jiang City’s hospital, the tough guy’s family was being interviewed by a reporter.
It was the reporter from Jiang City Evening News.
The reporter was interviewing the tough guy.
“Mr. Liu Wenlong, what were you thinking about when the fire broke out yesterday?”
The tough guy, Liu Wenlong.
“At that time, I only wanted to give my wife and children a chance to escape. I didn’t think about anything else.”
Reporter: “Then aren’t you afraid that your life will be at stake?”
Liu Wenlong: “I’m not afraid. As long as the two of them can survive, what does it matter if I die?”
Next to him, Yu Yuanyuan held Liu Wenlong’s hand with a blissful expression.
Reporter: “I really admire a man like you. At the crucial moment, you were able to stand up and give your wife and kid the hope of surviving!”
“Mr. Liu Wenlong, what is the thing that you want to do the most?”
Liu Wenlong said, “Right now, I want to thank my savior the most.”
“He saved my family’s life, and he also saved my life.”
“Dr. Wu Di said that if it weren’t for the students of Hogwarts University, our entire family would have lost their lives!”
“I… Last night, I might have died on the operating table!”
“Thank you! Thank you, Hogwarts University!”
Liu Wenlong was emotional, and his tiger-like eyes were filled with tears.
The tough guy tried his best to control his emotions and not cry out loud.
It was 5 pm.
The television station’s car once again arrived at the coastal highway.
After parking the car, the group of people took a boat to the small island and was going to conduct a second interview with the mysterious Hogwarts University.
At this moment, Jiang Han was sitting under the elf tree, enjoying the otaku dance of his students.
“Otaku Dance 2.0”, which was arranged by Qin Yanran, was being carried out on the field below the teaching building.
The lively, pure, and beautiful girls’ body language made people feel relaxed and happy.
Jiang Han drank fruit juice and watched the otaku dance. This kind of life was what otakus yearned for the most.
Chu Xiaoxiao sat beside Jiang Han and glared at him from time to time.
“Hmph! Men are pigs. All of you like to watch this kind of boring dance!”
“Outrageous! You wanted me to learn otaku dance? I’m not going. Don’t even think about making me compromise!”
Chu Xiaoxiao mumbled softly.
Jiang Han was also thinking about it. Although the otaku dance’s dancers were pretty, without Chu Xiaoxiao, he felt like something was missing.
As a professional who cheats his cousin, Jiang Han had not thought of a way to make Chu Xiaoxiao obediently surrender.
“Sigh…”
Jiang Han sighed. It was really too difficult.
Suddenly, the phone rang again.
Jiang Han took a look and saw that it was a harassing call. It was a reporter from the Jiang City Evening News television station. Jiang Han had noted the label of the harassing call.
After a few rings, Jiang Han hung up.
The other party was very persistent and kept calling Jiang Han.
Feeling helpless, Jiang Han picked up the phone.
“Hello, is this Principal Jiang Han?”
The reporter’s voice sounded.
Jiang Han: “Yes, it’s me. What’s the matter?”
Reporter: “Principal Jiang Han, thanks to your school’s students for helping Mr. Liu Wenlong’s family. Now that their lives are out of danger, I’m representing Jiang City Evening News today to have an interview with
you.”
Jiang Han was unhappy. “There’s no need for an interview. I don’t like these unnecessary formalities. Besides, there are no students in our school who admitted to saving people.”
The reporter had long thought that Jiang Han didn’t want to be interviewed, but she still insisted.
“Principal Jiang Han, we know that you don’t like to be disturbed, but we have already arrived at the entrance of your school. Can you give us a chance to have an interview?”
Jiang Han thought for a moment and said, “Alright, if you want an interview, you can interview our students. I’ll get them to open the door.”
After Jiang Han finished speaking, he hung up the phone.
He said to Huang Qiang and Zheng Baoliang, “You two saved him. You two go and accept the interview.”
Huang Qiang and Zheng Baoliang shook their heads like rattle drums. “Principal, we shouldn’t go. It’s not suitable…”
Jiang Han said with a stern face. “Not going? You guys saved him. Do you want me to go and take the credit during the interview? What are you guys thinking? Hurry up and accept the interview. Otherwise, three points will be deducted from each of you. I’ll confiscate your magic broom usage rights this month!”
The two of them left dejectedly. Chu Xiaoxiao said from the side, “Cousin, you’re such a strange person.”
Jiang Han touched his face. “What’s so strange about me?”
Chu Xiaoxiao counted with her fingers, and she tried to reason with Jiang Han. “Look, if this kind of selfless and heroic act of saving people happens in other schools, everyone will be fighting to be interviewed. Yet, you’re so resistant.”
Jiang Han leaned back on the recliner and drank his juice. “I don’t like these unnecessary formalities, and I don’t want to be interviewed. You know that I’m a shy person.”
“Bah!” Chu Xiaoxiao spat at Jiang Han. “You’re shy? Look at those students. What kind of clothes are they wearing? And they’re even doing the otaku dance!”
Jiang Han shook his head. “Cousin, this is called cultivating one’s character. It cultivates the interests and hobbies of the students in their spare time.”
“Hmph, you’re acting like a hooligan, and yet you’re saying this in such a fresh and refined manner!”
Jiang Han raised his eyebrows and suddenly thought of a good idea.
He pretended to sigh. “Sigh. Luckily, I used an intermediate treatment technique when I went to save people last time. Otherwise, I definitely wouldn’t have been able to save them!”
As expected, upon hearing Jiang Han’s words, Chu Xiaoxiao suddenly turned her head and looked at him.
“What? intermediate treatment technique?”
