The 70s Novel: The Supporting Character Just Wants to Lie Down-Chapter 284: Goal Achieved

A drama at Jiang Peng’s house left everyone restless. Due to a recent runaway incident, the mother and daughter temporarily put aside their enmity, seemingly at peace.

In fact, Bai Li’s psychological issues remain unresolved; they were merely overshadowed by the sudden shock and overwhelming grief that hit her.

Yet, this is also an opportunity. If utilized properly, it’s possible to gently soften and heal her.

And this task, Jiang Huilan took upon herself. Previously occupied with her career, she now plans to allocate more time to Bai Li and Jiang Shulan.

Unknowingly, Jiang Huilan has become the backbone of their family, shouldering the responsibilities of the household.

As a result, Huang Tianyu has become somewhat resentful. Out of ten attempts to meet his beloved, he succeeds only twice - a rather low success rate.

Bai Li’s emotions can only be soothed by time and patience.

Spring has passed unnoticed, fall has arrived, and suddenly the seventh and eighth cohort of students has started their school year.

Wang Miaomiao’s semester exams remain outstanding, highly praised by Professor Pan. Her English proficiency is already sufficient for graduation.

Now, when talent is scarce, with such a genius student in the seventy-seventh cohort, how can we let her go unutilized...

Thus, with Professor Pan’s recommendation, Wang Miaomiao went through a series of exams and successfully became a teaching assistant, instructing her junior peers in English.

Her initial goal, to stay and teach at the school, was smoothly accomplished.

Wang Miaomiao’s academic life is busier than ever; having finished English, she still needs to diligently study other courses, and she has chosen to take French as an elective.

Learning is endless; advance or fall behind.

"Xiao Wang, come quickly with me." Professor Pan came over excitedly, gestured at Wang Miaomiao, and quickly walked back.

Wang Miaomiao raised an eyebrow, wondering what was so urgent. Not daring to delay, she immediately got up and jogged after him.

Following Professor Pan to the headmaster’s office door, Wang Miaomiao saw Professor Pan and tidied up his own attire before raising his hand to knock on the door...

Upon seeing this, Wang Miaomiao quickly tidied her appearance and heard a voice from inside saying, "Please come in."

Professor Pan gently pushed the door open, and Wang Miaomiao followed him inside. Two people were sitting in the room, one was a middle-aged man with impeccable posture, sitting with a straight back, guarded by three burly men who seemed to be bodyguards.

Wang Miaomiao identified one as the headmaster; who then was the one with bodyguards?

"Director Feng, this is my student, Comrade Wang Miaomiao." Professor Pan introduced her to Director Feng, his tone unable to hide his pride.

From the moment Wang Miaomiao entered, Director Feng had been observing her, noting her calm demeanor, without a hint of unease or tension, which raised his assessment of her to another level.

"Wang Miaomiao, female, nineteen years old, originally registered in the C City Red Star Town Huang Village Brigade..." Director Feng recited Wang Miaomiao’s biography verbatim, as if treasured, word for word.

Wang Miaomiao listened attentively, amazed by how much she had accomplished since coming here; her resume impressive and admirable, inducing a small sense of pride.

"Yes, that’s me. What brings Director Feng to seek me today?" Wang Miaomiao responded confidently, unfazed, fluent and poised.

This further impressed Director Feng, "I came today because I have a task for Comrade Wang."

"Please, go on." Wang Miaomiao had some guesses about his motive, though she did not know the specifics, but now that they had approached her, she certainly wouldn’t refuse.

"Tomorrow afternoon, there will be a meeting, requiring translation personnel throughout. Comrade Wang, being the talent we need, we hope you accept our commission and excel in translation work." Director Feng candidly explained his purpose.

Upon hearing this, Wang Miaomiao felt a surge of excitement, astounded that the state sought her expertise; was she truly exceptional? Was she about to witness a miracle up close?

"Of course, I will strive to excel in this translation task." Wang Miaomiao responded without hesitation, agreeing instantly.

Director Feng raised his eyebrows again, admiring her boldness, "Good, good, youngsters should be confident and daring, energetic - worthy of being the Wolf King’s wife, haha..."

Wolf King, who? Jiang Yan maybe? Wang Miaomiao raised an eyebrow, maintaining silence.

Director Feng seemed increasingly satisfied with her, softening his originally stern expression, "Alright, now that it’s settled, I’ll take her with me. Old classmate, until we meet again."

"Hmm? Leaving now?" Wang Miaomiao was somewhat taken aback.

"Yes, this is confidential, so you need to join the assembly camp now, and cannot leave until the task is complete." Director Feng explained kindly.

"Shouldn’t I notify my family first?" Wang Miaomiao felt like she was boarding a pirate ship; unsure of how long she’d be gone, her family, especially the two little troublemakers, would undoubtedly miss her dearly. She would miss them too. She should’ve anticipated this before agreeing...

"We’ll have someone specifically notify them, let’s go." Director Feng stood up, smiling warmly, while Wang Miaomiao was speechlessly holding her forehead.

The headmaster laughed along, and finally said, "Comrade Wang Miaomiao, do well, don’t let Jing University down, and there will be commendations on your return."

"Yes, Headmaster." Realizing there was no turning back, Wang Miaomiao, not one to shy away from challenges, intended to tackle each task impressively, to honor her second chance at life.

"Hahaha..." Director Feng laughed as he exited, Wang Miaomiao followed closely behind, flanked by her three bodyguards, as they left the headmaster’s office.

Inside the office, the headmaster asked Professor Pan, "Lao Pan, can Wang Miaomiao handle it? We don’t want her embarrassing Jing University out there..." Though the headmaster hadn’t shown it, his heart was still uncertain.

"Headmaster, rest assured, among our younger generation within the school, I believe only she is capable. Ah, we face a talent void, much work remains ahead." Professor Pan remarked.

"Alright, if you vouch for her, I’ll trust it. Your insights I still believe in, after all." The headmaster sought reassurance, though trust and doubt were two sides of the same coin.

The two moved past the topic, beginning a discussion on addressing the talent gap, formulating long-term goals for Jing University.

Meanwhile, Wang Miaomiao joined Director Feng in a black sedan where the windows obscured the view outside. The car made numerous turns, driving for an unknown length before finally stopping...
