The school can establish certain rules and regulations, but it can’t explicitly dictate that you can’t look down on guest students.”
“Yeah, and even if such a rule was really established, would the students actually obey it?” The Homeroom Teacher also added, “We can’t always be watching what the students do in their private lives, nor can we control it.”
“Even though we are aware that such situations occur, we can’t always be monitoring and controlling them.
Therefore, establishing such rules and regulations would just be for show.
They won’t have any restraint, and in the end, they’ll just become a joke,” the Homeroom Teacher stated.
Cindy Clarke nodded, understanding the dilemma.
“Fortunately, even as a guest student, nobody is a pushover.
It’s not possible that they just suffer bullying.
...
In recent times, they may be looked down upon, but they hardly ever do anything to really bully others,” Samson added.
“If they don’t want to be looked down upon, then they should make the effort to win against those who belittle them.
If they have real abilities, even guest students will gain respect,” the Homeroom Teacher stated.
“That’s true,” Samson Zhekova agreed, “Frankly, the inner culture of Pingla Academy is a continuous competition where strength is respected.
Although it’s not as exaggerated as survival of the fittest, if one wishes to survive in Pingla Academy, they must constantly improve.” 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙥𝙪𝙗.𝒄𝙤𝙢
“Speaking about our dormitories…” Samson Zhekova brought up suddenly.
Cindy Clarke batted her eyelashes, what about the dormitories now?
There were still things she didn’t know?
Cindy cast a questioning gaze towards Adrian Zhekova.
Adrian Zhekova thought of it too and gave Cindy an apologetic look.
He hadn’t thought of it earlier.
But this didn’t really concern Cindy all that much.
As expected, Samson Zhekova explained, “It doesn’t concern you a great deal, Cindy.
But since it came up, it would do good for you to know.”
“Housing conditions for first-year dormitories in Pingla Academy are all the same.
The dormitory suites in the school are differentiated into different levels.
Like you, you live in a single apartment.
There’s no outside disturbance, and there’s everything you need, just like rental apartments outside.”
Cindy Clarke nodded.
Samson Zhekova continued, “But there’s also a two-person and a four-person suite.”
Of course, a suite of four would be the limit.
“Two-person and four-person suites are also fitted with a kitchen set, but there’s only one.
If it’s to be used, both or all four have to take turns.
Surely, the conditions are not as good as a single suite.”
“Due to good financial conditions at home, nobody chooses the two-person or four-person suites just to save money.
Since Pingla has a set admissions quota each year, there are enough single apartments.”
“However, at the end of the year during the final exam, the bottom ten in the class not only receiving failing grades but are also forcibly moved into four-person suites.
No matter how much money you pay, you can’t stay in a single suite anymore.
Not just the last ten but the bottom twenty will be moved to four-person suites.”
“There’s a total of 100 students in each grade in Pingla Academy,” Samson Zhekova informed, “Students ranked 51st to 80th have to move into double occupancy dormitories.”
“Although staying in a group dormitory means you have company, after all, they have come here to study, not find playmates.
Considering the competition mechanism in Pingla, even though they are classmates, they are also competitors.
As for partners, it’s very precious and not something that can easily happen just because they are living together.”
“On the contrary, when it comes to multiple people sharing one dormitory, although they can perform their cooking operations in the school study room during the daytime, the study room is limited.
It’s just like in a regular college, the early bird catches the worm.
But with a single-person dormitory, it’s different.”
“You don’t have to go to the study room specifically.
You can do your research in your dormitory, it’s convenient and comfortable, and if you are more thoughtful, you won’t have to worry about being seen by others.”
“However, in the group dormitories, one kitchen shared by two or four people, how is that enough?” Samson Zhekova questioned, “That’s just one point, but the most important is, it’s similar to failing and becoming the last ten in class, they can’t afford the loss of face.”
“Of course, if you perform better next time and move out of the bottom half into the top fifty, you can move back into a single person apartment.”
“Therefore, though the internal competition at Pingla Academy isn’t cruel, for their dignity, it gets pretty heated,” Samson Zhekova said.
Cindy Clarke gave Samson Zhekova a complex look, then turned to Adrian Zhekova, asking, “Did all of these rules come into effect after Samson joined?”
Adrian Zhekova just nodded.
Then the couple simultaneously turned towards Samson Zhekova.
Samson Zhekova: “…”
Why is this newlywed couple looking at him as if he’s some kind of skinflint?
What the heck!
“However, the dormitories for guest students are fixed, regardless of their performance, they don’t need to move,” Samson Zhekova said with a somewhat embarrassed smile.
Cindy Clarke: “…”
What were you so embarrassed about?
Did I say anything?
Just then Samson Zhekova spoke, “After all, the guest students have paid so much tuition fee.
Moreover, they won’t get a Pingla graduation certificate in the future.
They can’t use the Pingla certificate to give themselves an advantage.
Even if they say they have the experience of studying at Pingla, without the graduation certificate, who would believe it?”
“Even if there’s evidence to prove it, others will say, you were just a guest student, no need to glorify yourself,” Samson Zhekova said, “You could say, apart from the excellent teaching staff and teaching environment that Pingla provides to the guest students, there’s nothing more.
Isn’t it justified that they live comfortably?”
“The main reason is, guest students managed to get in by contributing a large amount in donations, isn’t it?
If they don’t provide better living conditions for them, wouldn’t it be embarrassing to receive such large donations?” Cindy Clarke said teasingly, with a sarcastic smile on her face.
Cindy Clarke really hit the nail on the head, spot on.
Samson Zhekova, unable to resist, treated Cindy Clarke like a confidant, “Isn’t it, we also can’t just take their money for …”
He hadn’t finished his words when he saw Cindy Clarke’s “as expected” face with a smile.
Samson Zhekova immediately swallowed his words, saying, “Well, not everyone, Cindy, you got in without spending a penny.”
Cindy Clarke: “…”
She had a feeling that Samson Zhekova was indirectly asking her for money.
Wesley Gordon: “…”
Hunter Clarke: “…”
Are the members of the Zhekova family always like this?
Initially, they felt Cindy Clarke’s temperament didn’t really fit in with the Zhekova family.
Turns out they were wrong.
They had just not seen her interacting with the Zhekova family.
Looking at it now, they had to admit, people do change once they step through the door of another family!
The Homeroom Teacher looked around and realized they were already at the entrance of the classroom.
