Strike Back, Proud Goddess!

Tang Xi chuckled and gave the teacher a thumbs up. "Sir, you are really knowledgeable." She then gave a scornful look at Ms. Cao and sneered, "But somebody is like a frog at the bottom of a well, being difficult to her student for no reason."

The foreign language director was embarrassed to hear Tang Xi deriding Ms. Cao, but he didn't stop her; instead, he came forward and asked her excitedly, "How did you manage to blend ten different languages into one sentence without making any grammatical mistake?"

Tang Xi smiled and pointed at her head with a finger. "I use this."

She was not particularly clever but had a good memory, so it was easy for her to learn foreign languages.

Ms. Cao glared at Tang Xi with a frown, as if she wanted to devour Tang Xi alive. Tang Xi cast a glance at her before smiling at the foreign language director and saying, "I think that most importantly, we should not pretend to know something we actually don't know."

"Go back to class." Ms. Cao felt ashamed to be scorned by a student, but it was not proper for her to get angry in front of a director, so she decided to give Tang Xi a lesson later.

Unwilling to do as she wished, Tang Xi chuckled and said, "Then please give my files to Mr. He and I'll be his student from now on."

Mr. He paused and looked at Tang Xi in surprise. No student would want to study in his class. She was so gifted—why did she want to transfer from the experimental class to his class?

Not having expected Tang Xi to dare mention that again, Ms. Cao snapped, "What makes you think you can change classes as you wish?"

Tang Xi didn't even look at her and directly asked the foreign language director, "Sir, may I change classes?"

"Tell me why you want to transfer from the experimental class to the lowest one?" As a director, while he was not as powerful as a grade director, he had more say than a head teacher.

"Because I think what matters for a student is not academic achievement but morality." Tang Xi glanced at Ms. Cao and exclaimed, "I'm not here to hear a teacher scold me. I'm here to learn. However, it took me one day to find out that Ms. Cao is not suitable to be a teacher. If she continues to be the head teacher or teacher of the experimental class, I must leave it."

"How dare you!" Ms. Cao, who was told by a student for the first time that she was unfit to be a teacher, was eager to punch Tang Xi in the face. She tried to calm down and said coldly, "You only want to transfer classes because you are afraid you can't keep up with the class! Do you think foreign language ability is everything?"

Tang Xi truly thought it tiring to communicate with her. Her past self would have walked away ignoring Ms. Cao and would not have wasted time with her here!

"I'm asking for a class transfer," Tang Xi said firmly. "If it's not allowed, then I'll ask a trustee to settle the matter."

Yesterday, Ms. Cao hadn't come to school because she had something to attend to, so she didn't know of Tang Xi's identity and background. She had only read the initial part of Tang Xi's files this morning, and the only thing she knew about her was that she was transferred from a countryside middle school of City W. As such, upon hearing Tang Xi's words, she felt disdain and sneered, "Trustee? Do you know what a trustee is? Let me tell you—you must go back to class today, and write me an apology letter of at least 2,000 words!"

"Can you lend me your cell phone for a moment, Mr. He?" Now Tang Xi felt it was really inconvenient not having a cell phone!

Nowadays almost all middle and high school students had smartphones. Seeing Tang Xi borrowing a cell phone from Mr. He, she was sure that Tang Xi was from a poor family and was just trying to scare her. She said with a snort, "Why do you need a cell phone? To cry to your mom on the phone? Unfortunately, it might take your mom two or three days coming here from your home.

"One day to get out of the mountain, one day to reach the county, and one day to arrive here from City W."

Tang Xi scowled. What a snob! No wonder she dared to bully her like this! She had read her files and found that she was from Hengshan Middle School, a countryside school, which was why she was sure that Xiao Rou had no background!

She was going to give her a good lesson!

"Ms. Cao, how can you speak to your student like this?" Mr. He and the director said almost simultaneously. "You can't look down on a student because of her family circumstances!"

"Yes, Ms. Cao, you have gone too far." Mr. He added, "Besides, this student is really talented, and you, as a teacher, should focus on the academic performance of students rather than their family circumstances."

With that, Mr. He handed Tang Xi his cell phone and asked her with a smile, "Who are you going to call?"

Tang Xi received the phone with a smile, thanked him and dialed a phone number that she bore in mind only a few days ago. Soon the call was answered. "Xiao Sa."

"It's me." Tang Xi's voice sounded aggrieved. For some reason, upon hearing Xiao Sa's familiar voice, she suddenly felt so wronged and wanted to cry. Was it because she had family to depend on now?

Xiao Sa felt his heart skip a beat when he heard Tang Xi's sob. He asked hurriedly, "Rourou, what's wrong with you? Why are you crying? Did someone bully you? Tell me who did it. I'll avenge you!"

Hearing Xiao Sa's words, Tang Xi felt even more wronged—she began to cry loudly. Xiao Sa, on the other side of the phone, was so worried that he jumped to his feet and walked out of the meeting room he was in. "My dear, don't cry. Wait just a moment. I'll be right there!"

Upon seeing Xiao Sa suddenly walk out without hosting the meeting, the others in the meeting room looked at each other in astonishment, wondering what happened. The secretary ran after him, shouting, "President, this meeting is very important…"

"Very important?" Xiao Sa looked at the secretary and frowned. "My sister was bullied and she cried. Is there anything more important than my sister?! Just ask the vice president to attend the meeting!"

He then proceeded to leave the company without looking back.

Staring at the president who had entered the elevator, the secretary felt her head ache, but she could only go back to the meeting room. "President Xiao said the vice president will host the meeting for him, and that he'll read the meeting minutes on his return."

Naturally, she couldn't tell them that the president said the company was not as important as his sister…
