Chapter 380 - The Principal With A Sense Of Duty
"Everyone, listen. I am the principal of Yu Hua School, Wang Baiwan. I have a few things to say about our school's Lu An, who got first place in the exam but withdrew from school!"
Because it was the principal and he was holding a loudspeaker, the noisy people below quickly quietened down.
The principal continued in a loud voice, "First of all, I guarantee on my honor that little Lu An absolutely didn't become an entertainment director for the money. She's doing it because it's what she loves!
"I believe that regardless of whether students are outstanding or not, as long as a student has carefully considered things and obtained their parents' approval, the school should fully respect and support their decision, as long as it doesn't go against the core values of socialism!
"Although it's indeed a huge loss that such an excellent seedling like Lu An will not further her studies, I don't think it's wrong, nor do I think it's a loss!
"Everyone has the right to choose how to live their own lives. We can't criticize Lu An just because she has outstanding talent, nor should we think that since she's so amazing, she should act a certain way or do certain things. This sort of behavior and understanding is wrong!
"As the saying goes, don't do to others what you would not have done to you!
"Besides, Lu An was able to be firm in her decision to drop out only because she has already learned everything. If she furthered her studies, she would just get a certificate. However, if she can save time and do what she has always loved, that doesn't mean she'll be abandoning all her skills; for example, she never said she would stop practicing medicine and saving lives.
"So, as school principal, I hope that everyone can be understanding and respect our students' decisions.
"I've also always believed that Lu An definitely has a warm and passionate heart. After all, Mr. Lu Xun once said that a doctor might not be able to save the world; that can only happen by awakening humans from their slow thinking. Isn't Lu An's attempt to use her work to pass on ideas and make everyone better a symbol of great love?
The principal of Yu Hua, Wang Baiwan, was sincere, passionate and full of logic.
Practically no one was making a fuss anymore.
After a short silence, there was even thunderous applause!
"That's right, that's right! Well said!"
Everyone had the right to make their own choices. If she wasn't mature enough, you could reason with her and make her realize the error of her ways. However, if this was the result of careful consideration on her part, plus she wasn't hurting anyone, what reason did you have to object?
Not to mention outsiders, even students from the school couldn't help but cry!
My god!
How fortunate were they to have such an understanding principal?
The outsiders also sighed with admiration. As expected of the best high school in South City, Yu Hua. Their principal was so cultured; no wonder the school was awesome!
On the other side, Lu An was a little dumbfounded.
In particular, when Lu An looked at Principal Wang Baiwan, who looked like he was lit up by the sun and had a kind expression on his face after the long speech, she abruptly felt that there was something wrong with this plot.
As expected of the principal of Yu Hua High School!
"Thank you, Principal, for speaking up for me. If I don't come up with an even more meaningful and profound work, I'll feel like I've let down your trust in me!"
