Chapter 832 Standing up to Injustice

He had continuous classes.

After the first period, there would be a 10-minute break in the middle, and the next class would still be this one.

After Assistant Professor Yang had finished the two classes, he packed up his teaching materials and went straight to Principal Mu’s office.

“Is Principal Mu here?” He went to ask his assistant.

The assistant saw his angry look and did not dare to dally at all. He immediately said, “Yes, please wait a moment.”

The assistant quickly went to knock on the principal’s door.

“Mr. Principal, Assistant Professor Yang is here to see you,” the assistant said at the door and winked at Principal Mu, trying to let him know that Assistant Professor Yang was in a bad mood.

He did not know if Principal Mu had understood, but the latter replied enthusiastically, “Quickly let Mr. Yang in.”

When Assistant Professor Yang heard Principal Mu’s words, he did not wait for the assistant to pass on the message and entered directly.

“Why are you still carrying the teaching materials? You didn’t take them back to the office, but you carried them all the way here?” Principal Mu hurriedly stood up, took the teaching materials from Associate Professor Yang and placed them on his desk temporarily. “Come, let’s sit on the sofa. How heavy it must have been for you to carry them all the way here.”

There was a tea tray on the coffee table in front of the sofa.

When Principal Mu had nothing to do, he liked to make some tea for himself to drink.

There was hot water boiling nearby, so Principal Mu grabbed some tea leaves and put them into the teapot.

He then poured hot water into the teapot.

Assistant Professor Yang said, “Don’t go to the trouble. I’m only here to say a few words.”

“Even if it’s just for a while, you have to drink something! How could you just sit empty-handed?” Principal Mu poured hot water and first rinsed the teacup with the first batch of tea.

The teacup carried the fragrance of tea, and the tea leaves had also been rinsed.

This set of teacups had beautiful patterns from the principal’s careful treatment of it.

“Come, Mr. Yang, have a sip of tea first.” To douse the flames.

Associate Professor Yang picked up the teacup. It was small, and it contained only a sip of tea.

However, because it was hot, he only took a small sip.

After putting down the teacup, he heard Principal Mu say, “Mr. Yang, what made you so angry?”

It was not time for the title evaluation yet.

Furthermore, their school’s title evaluation was very fair. There were not any messy matters.

Assistant Professor Yang usually had a good temper. He would not get angry.

Moreover, he was Professor Guo’s student. Who would dare to make him angry?

The atmosphere in their teacher’s office was also particularly good. Principal Mu had not heard of any discord between teachers recently.

However, he was still very concerned about this matter.

Discord between the teachers could easily make it onto the social news if it were to get blown up.

This would have an awfully bad impact on the image of their school.

“Did the students make you angry?” President Mu asked again. “Recently, the freshmen of the Mathematics Department have been dissatisfied with the matter of Tan Mo being the teaching assistant. It’s blown up quite a bit. You know about this matter, right?” Associate Professor Yang said.

“I did hear about it.” President Mu nodded.

So it really was about the students, he thought to himself.

He just did not know why Associate Professor Yang was angry.

Could it be that he was also dissatisfied with his decision to let Tan Mo become a teaching assistant?

That should not be the case! When they had held the meeting to discuss this matter back then, it had been unanimously approved.

Associate Professor Yang had not raised any objections either.

Moreover, Professor Guo was incredibly supportive of Tan Mo teaching in the Mathematics Department. As Professor Guo’s student, Associate Professor Yang would definitely support Professor Guo’s opinion.

“Then why did you just sit back and let those students cause a ruckus?” Associate Professor Yang said unhappily, “This is really stressful on Tan Mo.”

So he was here to seek justice for her.

President Mu heaved a sigh of relief and said, “I was thinking that Tan Mo has some real skills. Mathematics isn’t a subject where one can just muddle through it. Whether she has the ability or not, we’ll know once we assess her. Tan Mo would naturally be able to use her capabilities to convince others. Once that time comes, they won’t be able to stir anything up.” “You’re sure taking the backseat here. You were the one who let Tan Mo teach. But now that you’ve caused the students to be dissatisfied, you don’t care anymore and choose to let Tan Mo bear the pressure herself,” Associate Professor Yang said unhappily, “That’s not how one treats others!”

“I think you might as well let Tan Mo teach the older students! From the second year to the graduate students, they are all eager for Tan Mo to teach them. Would you still need to rush to seek the approval of the freshmen then?” Associate Professor Yang said, “Tan Mo is a talent and has won so much glory for our school. Why should she be suffering amongst the first-year students? In the future, they’ll know what they have lost and regret it!”

“I heard from Dean Yao that yesterday, the second, third, fourth year, and graduate students all went to see him. They all want Tan Mo to teach them. And they are also very dissatisfied with the attitude of the freshmen toward Tan Mo…”

“Since the freshmen don’t like to learn, even if you let Tan Mo teach them, it would be half the effort,” said Associate Professor Yang, “It’s better to let Tan Mo teach those who are willing to learn. The teaching assistants aside, even the kids wouldn’t object to letting Tan Mo teach them alone.”

“I’m just thinking of laying a foundation for the freshmen,” said Principal Mu.

“Are the students in our school not having a solid foundation or something? If they don’t like to learn, it’s useless no matter how we try. It’d be better to let the eager learners study properly,” Associate Professor Yang said.

“I think the group of students who went to approach Dean Yao made a lot of sense. If you say you want to lay a good foundation, it’s actually not too late to start from the sophomore year,” he continued.

“Now, Tan Mo is responsible for real variable functions and topology, which are only set up in the first semester. The second-year students only learned these two courses in the first semester of the first year, which means that they just learned them not long ago. It’s completely possible to let Tan Mo teach them now.”

“What’s more, it’d be possible to let Tan Mo teach the third- and fourth-year students. It’s just in time for them to register for the math competition. Our teaching team, together with Tan Mo, has a higher chance of winning this year’s math competition. Look at the competition last time. Tan Mo, as a participating student, only gave her teammates some questions to brush up on those topics. All of that ended up greatly improving our students’ results in the math competition. If we let Tan Mo teach them properly, who would still care about Hua University?” Associate Professor Yang said.

Principal Mu: “…”

What he said was so reasonable that he was speechless.

“Also, the group of students who are currently in graduate school also have a point. They are learning more deeply. Wouldn’t it be better if they had the opportunity to communicate with Tan Mo so that we could cultivate more talents?” Associate Professor Yang said, “Anyway it’s much better than teaching a freshman. It’s hard and unrewarding, and they can’t get the respect of those students.”

Associate Professor Yang told him about those students deliberately asking tough questions to make things difficult for Tan Mo.

“They just want to see her mess up, but houw could Tan Mo not know the answers to those questions? They’re all peanuts to her. But knowing how to answer them doesn’t mean that Tan Mo has to tolerate their willfulness and rudeness.”
