Chapter 35 Being Fired

Wu Heping wanted to give her a scolding first and then comforted her. However, for some reason, he always felt that this tactic would not work on Lin Wan. He didn’t want to fall out with Lin Wan completely because of this.

But now, he had exhausted all his tricks. He had no other way except this, so he decided to give it a shot. If it still didn’t work, then he would fire her. At least, it would relieve the anger in his heart.

After waiting for five or six minutes, Lin Wan knocked on the door and entered the room, "Mr. Wu, are you looking for me?" She asked politely.

Wu Heping began his show. He would furiously reprimand Lin Wan first and then felt pity for her. In other words, he wanted to belittle her to the dust.

Lin Wan listened to him calmly, without refuting him or expressing her thoughts. She looked at him as if she were watching a clown performance.

Wu Heping was finally exhausted from the talking. He grabbed the tea cup on the table and took a few big mouthfuls of water.

Upon seeing this, Lin Wan took advantage of this opportunity and asked lightly, "Mr. Wu, can I leave now?"

"You!" Wu Heping snarled furiously, "What kind of attitude is this? Don’t you believe that I will fire you immediately?"

Lin Wan stood up gracefully and sneered at him, "Whatever!" After saying that, she left his office without looking back.

Wu Heping was taken aback. He froze for a moment before slamming the tea cup on the table.

The news of Lin Wan’s dismissal was officially announced the next morning. She was just a contract worker, so the school had the right to fire her at any time.

The news made many teachers totally flabbergasted as soon as it came out.

Lin Wan was an easy-going person and had a good relationship with her colleagues. She was also very dedicated to her work. In terms of performance at work and ability to teach, no one was comparable to her. Therefore, there should be absolutely no reason to fire her.

Many of the colleagues who had a close relationship with Lin Wan came to ask why she had been fired, but she refused to tell them about it. Judging from her attitude, she didn’t seem to take this matter to heart.

However, many of the music teachers had already seen the interactions between her and the vice principal. Coupled with that pervert’s temperament, many people had already guessed the reason.

The rumors were spread quickly and many people had cried out against unfairness for Lin Wan

Lin Wan didn’t care about this. It was not exactly a bad thing to get fired. At least she could stay away from that dirty scum.

For her, she really didn’t care about this job. Liking and caring were two different things. Lin Wan liked this job and treated it like a hobby. However, she would definitely not lose her principle because of this.

Anyway, her husband had a well-paying job, and she was not short of money as well. She could just be a full-time housewife, just as her husband wanted her to be.

Ms. Tian helped her to pack her things and then insisted on sending her to the gate of the school.

Since learning about this news, Ms. Lin had been feeling outraged about this. It was not that she felt sorry for Lin Wan, but she was angry that Wu Heping had ruined her plan.

The reason was very simple. After Lin Wan’s dismissal, the plan to let her be Lu Jiaxue’s tutor might also come to an abrupt end. After all, there was no reason for Lin Wan to continue to teach her students.

Indeed, things were just as she had expected. After seeing Lin Wan get in the car, Ms. Tian couldn’t help but ask, “Lin Wan, Jiaxue likes you very much. She wouldn’t change her mind just because of this matter. Do you want to...”

“Let’s forget it!” Lin Wan interrupted her, “I’m no longer a teacher. I plan to concentrate on being a full-time housewife in the future. So, I’m afraid that I won’t have the time to be Jiaxue’s tutor. You might want to look for someone else.”

"Lin Wan, I hope you can give this a serious thought again. I really don't know how to break the news to the child."

Lin Wan hesitated for a moment, but still shook her head firmly and said, “I’m sorry. I really can’t promise you. Could you please tell Jiaxue about this, and apologize to her for me?”

After saying that, she gave Ms. Tian an apologetic smile and drove out of the school.

Ms. Tian was at a loss as she watched the car disappeared from her sight. In the end, she stomped her foot heavily on the ground, turned and walked back to the school angrily.

She really hated Wu Heping to the core now. She hated that dirty scum for ruining her plans.

“Wu Heping, go and take a look at yourself in the mirror. You are an ugly toad dreaming of eating swan meat. This is a woman that Mr. Lu takes a liking to. Do you think you are worthy to lay your hands on her?” Ms. Tian cursed under her breath.

After scolding Wu Heping, she couldn’t help complaining about Lin Wan again, “Humph, what a loser. You can be the rich man’s wife, but you choose to be a full-time housewife instead. You’re hopeless!”

However, no matter how unhappy she was, she had no choice but to accept the reality.

Of course, she had to inform Lu Fangliang when such a thing had happened.

Ms. Tian called him and told him everything. Then, she asked him to think of a way quickly. Otherwise, he might completely lose his chance with Lin Wan.

Lu Fangliang didn’t have much of a reaction after knowing the situation. He only asked calmly on the phone, “Do you know the background of Wu Heping?”

“His elder sister is one of the division chiefs in the school,” Ms. Tian replied truthfully, “I heard that the director trusted him very much. It was also because of this relationship that he was transferred to our school as the vice principal.”

“Alright, I get it. Leave this matter to me!” Lu Fangliang didn’t make any comment on this matter. Instead, he just responded faintly and hung up the phone.

“Leave it to you? What are you planning to do?” Ms. Tian muttered silently in her heart. She wanted to ask him clearly, but didn’t dare to call Lu Fangliang again.

After hanging up the phone, Lu Fangliang pondered for a moment before making another call.

"Hello, is this Mr. Zhou? This is Lu Fangliang!"

...

Wu Heping sat in the office, looking a little crestfallen.

He originally thought that Lin Wan would apologize and plead with him after she received the dismissal notice. At that time, he will make use of that opportunity to take this beauty down.

Unexpectedly, that woman didn’t care at all. She just packed her bags and went straight home without even bothering to go through the resignation procedures.

Wu Heping felt that all his efforts had been wasted, which made all his subsequent tricks useless.

Thinking of this, Wu Heping was starting to go bonkers. Why wasn’t this woman played by the rules at all?

He was already starting to regret now. He had regretted his decision to fire her. Now that the beauty had been driven away by him, what reasons did he have to make a move on her?

He should have kept her by his side and slowly think of a way to make advances at her. He was confident that he would be able to get her in bed sooner or later.

It was pointless to regret anything now. He could only watch the beauty leave him.

Just when he was secretly annoyed, the cell phone on the desk rang.

It was his elder sister calling him, and Wu Heping quickly answered it. However, before he could open his mouth to greet her, the other party had begun to scold him.

Wu Heping listened to her reprimanding quietly, completely baffled. He didn’t offend his elder sister recently. Why was she scolding him like that now?

After the woman from the other end of the line gave him a round of scolding, and vented almost all her anger, she then got down to business, "Let me ask you. Is there a teacher named Lin Wan in your school?"

Wu Heping was startled by her question and immediately felt that something was wrong. Why did his elder sister mention Lin Wan? Could it be that Li Wan knew his elder sister?

After thinking about it, he felt that it was impossible. He knew his eldest sister’s social circle. If Lin Wan knew his elder sister, it was impossible that he didn’t know that. Could it be...

Wu Heping suddenly had a bad feeling, and replied to his eldest sister immediately, "Yes, we had a teacher named Lin Wan in our school."

"Did you fire her?" Her tone was very stiff and filled with dissatisfaction.

“Yes. I fired her because her work performance was unsatisfactory and her attitude was bad. Everything is done in accordance with the regulations.”

“Nonsense!” Wu Heping’s elder sister chided him, “Don’t think I don’t know what you are thinking? I have been tolerating you all this while just for the sake of our parents. Do you treat me as a fool?”

"Sister, I, I..."

Wu Heping broke out in a cold sweat because his sister had never scolded him like this. This could only show that his decision to fire Lin Wan had caused a huge trouble for his eldest sister.

“Listen carefully. No matter what method you use, you must get Ms. Lin to come back. Otherwise, I am not sure whether I can help you keep the position of vice principal in school. Weigh the consequences yourself!”

Wu Heping was jolted from his chair by her words, and he asked incoherently, "Sister, sister, is there a problem?"

On the other end of the line, the woman sighed heavily and said to him in a lowered voice, “You b*st*rd. How dare you lay your hands on any woman without finding out her background first? If I tell you that she and Lu Fangliang are very close, do you still dare to touch her?”

"Lu Fangliang? Which Lu Fangliang?" Wu Heping couldn't react for a moment.

"Idiot! The president of the Lu Corporation. His daughter is also a student at your school."

It was only then that Wu Heping suddenly remembered that man. Yes, he was the president of Lu Corporation. His daughter, Lu Jiaxue, was a student in Ms. Tian's class.

He didn’t expect that Lin Wan would know such a powerful and influential man.

His elder sister warned him a few times again, and after getting his assurance, she hung up the phone.

After hanging up the phone, Wu Heping was in a fix. He was the one who fired Lin Wan, and now, he was going to beg her to come back. If this news got out, he would be deeply embarrassed.

The problem was, even if he was willing to put his dignity aside, why would Lin Wan agree to come back?

It could be expected that Lin Wan would certainly refuse him. He would definitely hit a snag if he personally asked Lin Wan to come back.

However, since he had promised his elder sister, he had to bite the bullet no matter how difficult it was. After all, he was the one who had caused all these troubles.

After hesitating for a long moment, Wu Heping finally dialed Lin Wan's number. The call was rejected by the other party after ringing twice. When he tried to call her again, Lin Wan had already blocked his number.

Wu Heping smiled bitterly and shook his head. As expected, Lin Wan didn’t even bother to show him basic respect anymore after she was fired by him. He really didn’t know what he could do now.

While Wu Heping was feeling extremely frustrated in school, Lin Wan was feeling extremely calm.

This job was just a hobby, so she didn't get bothered when she lost it. She had other hobbies besides teaching. One of them was to supervise the big baby at home. That was the thing she was most interested in.

Of course, these two hobbies were incomparable. It didn't matter if she lost her teaching job. However, if her husband dared to fire her, she would definitely not let him off!
