After their allotted time in the screening room had ended, Yang Fanghong did not take them out to the grounds for their physical training as usual. Instead, he stood on the platform at the head of the room, flanked by two deputy instructors, and then announced loudly, “Parents will be visiting here today.
The main gate of the school was almost a carbon copy of a prison’s. In addition, there were men standing guard twenty-four-seven, making breaking out from there a complete impossibility. Then there were sky-high fences topped off with coils of barbed wire. Luckily, they weren’t also electrified, but there were surveillance cameras stationed at every corner of the school with instructors there to monitor them in shifts. They may not be the kind to fully focus on their work, but they weren't blind either.

So you all better be on your best goddamn behaviour. If I catch any of you giving so much as a hint using your goddamn eyes, I will be on your aѕs like white on rice! You hear me?! Don’t you dare cause a repeat of what happened last time. If any of you get any dumb ideas today, the training for all of you will be doubled!”

Every night, the instructors would check the number of people in each dorm room and lock the dormitory while taking guard shifts outside. The school was located on the outskirts, and it was impossible to get a taxi there; even seeing any cars was a rarity. What’s more, miles of the area surrounding the school were cleared out, so if you had no means of transportation, you’d get caught in no time at all.
Even during the run, no one was punched or kicked. The only reprimands came in the form of bellows. The female instructors also managed to display incredible acts of humanitarianism by allowing the girls experiencing special circυmstances to sit out the training and watch from the sidelines.

“Thank you. Really. Thank you so much, young man.” The relieved woman kept hold of Qin Mo’s hand as she added, “My Niannian is a good kid in every way that counts. She’s just a bit too timid. So if you see her, please look out for her, alright?”Earnest and worry. For some reason, this woman’s gaze touched a place in Qin Mo’s heart that was long hidden and unknown, stirring a feeling of conflict and perhaps a bit of envy, too.

The main gate of the school was almost a carbon copy of a prison’s. In addition, there were men standing guard twenty-four-seven, making breaking out from there a complete impossibility.“Oh, is that so? I’m sorry to trouble you, then.” With one last smile directed at Qin Mo, the woman turned away, planning to go speak to the director.

“Fυck off. I don’t like it, but I’m a freaking idiot.”
Even though the place was a private academy and not a prison, it was still an incredibly difficult place to break out of.
“Fυck off. I don’t like it, but I’m a freaking idiot.”
As the tubby man spoke, the group happened to pass by the resting Class 9, giving Qin Mo the chance to see a well-dressed and kind-looking woman frown as she asked, “Do you really follow military-styled management here? I heard that it’s common for schools like yours to beat people. Do you all—”“Geez. Again and again, they’re always freaking coming.” Someone whispered in the crowd of running students, their tone clearly irritated.

So with these troubles in mind, Qin Mo was in deep thought, going over every detail about the school in an attempt to concoct a thorough plan of escape. Since he decided he would break out of that place with Shen Zhuoyun, such a plan was no longer just a fantasy.

Yang Fanghong didn’t say anything unnecessary afterwards and ended his announcement with a few more words. He then led everyone outside to begin their training as usual.Yang Fanghong continued to select students at random, and upon failing, two boys got pushups as their punishment of choice. But what push-ups meant in that room was different from the ones given on the outside. As per the instructions of the instructors, the students had to be feet-up on the windowsill for these pushups. What’s more, the windows in the screening room were higher than average, so once up, the boys were practically upside down as they pushed their weight against the ground.

“Ma’am…” Qin Mo started speaking but quickly noticed Yang Fanghong’s gaze pointing his way. Clenching his jaw, he then added, “We really don’t get beaten here.”A few other parents seemed to also be in support of the strict but not violent teaching methods, and again, the director went on with his spiel.

N/AAfter their break was over, Qin Mo’s gaze was stuck on that woman. He watched as she smiled and nodded at the tubby man before vanishing beyond those towering gates. His hand started stinging. The place where that woman was held seemed to burn.

Every night, the instructors would check the number of people in each dorm room and lock the dormitory while taking guard shifts outside. The school was located on the outskirts, and it was impossible to get a taxi there; even seeing any cars was a rarity.While they ran, Qin Mo was made more aware of the difference between the present day and the past. Before, the male instructors would be dressed like soldiers, but their open jackets left their chеsts exposed. But presently, those jackets were fastened tіghtly, while sombre and upright expressions were plastered on their faces. Not a handcuff was in sight, nor were the batons they usually carried. The only thing hanging from their neat uniforms were whistles hung around their necks.

Qin Mo was stunned for a moment, but he managed to respond in a whisper, “They’re... not so bad.”
“Here, sir!” Shooting off of his seat, Qin Mo instinctively stood at attention.
Qin Mo was stunned for a moment, but he managed to respond in a whisper, “They’re... not so bad.”
“Qin Mo!”Of the inquisitive parents, a wealthy woman, in particular, had rushed over and taken Qin Mo by the hand, a kind look radiating from his face as she asked honestly, “Young man, can you tell me what things here are like?”
“Qin Mo!”
He opened his mouth, but none of what he wanted left his lips.
“What was reported on the news just now?” Qin Mo could almost see the malice reflected in Yang Fanghong’s narrowed gaze.

“That’s because we are training the children here to both endure hаrdships and foster a hаrd-working mindset. Kids these days are so spoiled by city life that they either turn into bad kids or end up spoiled rotten to the core.
“His Excellency, the Premier, visited Country X and met with the President of Country X last evening. Upon meeting, the President of Country X highly praised the relationship of our country with their own before extending a warm welcome to His Excellency for his visit.” Qin Mo almost had the lines of the broadcast repeated word for word, disappointing Yang Fanghong once again. It was the result of Qin Mo’s multitasking skills. He was able to simultaneously receive multіple types of information and critically analyse both.
“That’s because we are training the children here to both endure hаrdships and foster a hаrd-working mindset. Kids these days are so spoiled by city life that they either turn into bad kids or end up spoiled rotten to the core. So when they come to us here, we train them like troops. This way, when they leave our firm and guiding hands, they go out into the world as the thoughtful and sensible young adults they are meant to be.”
“Qin Mo!”It was at this point that Qin Mo finally understood what was happening. The parents who were coming—who came—were there to look into the “school” as an option. So everything about that day was just an act put on for those parents’ sake.
“Qin Mo!”
“The living accommodations here don’t look too great either…”Yang Fanghong continued to select students at random, and upon failing, two boys got pushups as their punishment of choice.

{Qin Mo… you’re really… You really are fυcking trash.}Qin Mo did as instructed, his back as straight as a soldier’s. The news broadcast still played on the television in the screening room where they were currently eating breakfast that day. Watching the rebroadcast of the prior night’s news and having random checks to make sure the students were watching was a regular activity after breakfast every day. If the student can’t answer, they will be made to run laps or do pushups as punishment. But compared to being punched and kicked during their training sessions, such punishments seemed insignificant.

“Thank you. Really. Thank you so much, young man.” The relieved woman kept hold of Qin Mo’s hand as she added, “My Niannian is a good kid in every way that counts. She’s just a bit too timid. So if you see her, please look out for her, alright?”“Atten-hut! Rest up. You got ten minutes!”

“Ma’am…” Qin Mo started speaking but quickly noticed Yang Fanghong’s gaze pointing his way. Clenching his jaw, he then added, “We really don’t get beaten here.”“Sit down!” Yang Fanghong bellowed with a snort.

With this, Qin Mo was no longer pinned down by Yang Fanghong’s gaze.
While they ran, Qin Mo was made more aware of the difference between the present day and the past. Before, the male instructors would be dressed like soldiers, but their open jackets left their chеsts exposed. But presently, those jackets were fastened tіghtly, while sombre and upright expressions were plastered on their faces. Not a handcuff was in sight, nor were the batons they usually carried. The only thing hanging from their neat uniforms were whistles hung around their necks.
With this, Qin Mo was no longer pinned down by Yang Fanghong’s gaze.
As the tubby man spoke, the group happened to pass by the resting Class 9, giving Qin Mo the chance to see a well-dressed and kind-looking woman frown as she asked, “Do you really follow military-styled management here? I heard that it’s common for schools like yours to beat people. Do you all—”“Goodness! How could we even think of striking a child in our care?! These days, every child here is considered family—they are our treasures!” The director cut her off and lied without breaking a sweat. “We’re nothing like those other private institutions. We are certified by the Education Bureau itself, and we are the ones who bear the responsibility if someone in our care is harmed. But—it must be noted that as a military-styled institution, we do impose fitting punishments for bad behaviour, such as running laps or restricting them from participating in other activities for the day. I do hope you can understand us doing this much. As parents, you must be well aware of the special circυmstances in which students here are placed in our care.”

Even though the place was a private academy and not a prison, it was still an incredibly difficult place to break out of.“Fυck off. I don’t like it, but I’m a freaking idiot.”

After their break was over, Qin Mo’s gaze was stuck on that woman. He watched as she smiled and nodded at the tubby man before vanishing beyond those towering gates. His hand started stinging. The place where that woman was held seemed to burn.Qin Mo was stunned for a moment, but he managed to respond in a whisper, “They’re... not so bad.”

Unfortunately, such an answer wasn’t enough. Throwing a glance at the director in the distance, the woman lowered her voice and asked again, “It’s alright. You can tell me honestly. Do they beat people here? Please don’t lie. I read many reports about places like these doing such things to kids, and it's what I’m afraid of the most. My daughter… She's not really a bad girl, but if nothing else works, she might have to be sent here. So, please, tell me the truth. I swear I won’t breathe a word of it to the director. I promise.”
“His Excellency, the Premier, visited Country X and met with the President of Country X last evening. Upon meeting, the President of Country X highly praised the relationship of our country with their own before extending a warm welcome to His Excellency for his visit.
Even during the run, no one was punched or kicked. The only reprimands came in the form of bellows. The female instructors also managed to display incredible acts of humanitarianism by allowing the girls experiencing special circυmstances to sit out the training and watch from the sidelines.
“His Excellency, the Premier, visited Country X and met with the President of Country X last evening. Upon meeting, the President of Country X highly praised the relationship of our country with their own before extending a warm welcome to His Excellency for his visit.” Qin Mo almost had the lines of the broadcast repeated word for word, disappointing Yang Fanghong once again. It was the result of Qin Mo’s multitasking skills. He was able to simultaneously receive multіple types of information and critically analyse both.
While they ran, Qin Mo was made more aware of the difference between the present day and the past. Before, the male instructors would be dressed like soldiers, but their open jackets left their chеsts exposed.When he heard the shout, Qin Mo thought his ears were broken. Rest? Rest up before even finishing five laps?

So with these troubles in mind, Qin Mo was in deep thought, going over every detail about the school in an attempt to concoct a thorough plan of escape. Since he decided he would break out of that place with Shen Zhuoyun, such a plan was no longer just a fantasy.Earnest and worry. For some reason, this woman’s gaze touched a place in Qin Mo’s heart that was long hidden and unknown, stirring a feeling of conflict and perhaps a bit of envy, too.

Yang Fanghong didn’t say anything unnecessary afterwards and ended his announcement with a few more words. He then led everyone outside to begin their training as usual.“What was reported on the news just now?” Qin Mo could almost see the malice reflected in Yang Fanghong’s narrowed gaze.

A few other parents seemed to also be in support of the strict but not violent teaching methods, and again, the director went on with his spiel.
Putting aside his shock, Qin Mo followed the group and sat down in place. Just as they did, he caught sight of the tubby admissions director, jiggling beer belly in tow, bumbling down the stairs while wearing a huge grin as he accompanied a group of people. As they all walked towards the sporting grounds, his thіck lips sputtered as he made his pitch: “As you see, all our facilities are not what you’d call cutting-edge, so they can be used to develop our students’ self-sufficiency. With military-styled management, they can blah blah blah…”
A few other parents seemed to also be in support of the strict but not violent teaching methods, and again, the director went on with his spiel.

In addition, there were men standing guard twenty-four-seven, making breaking out from there a complete impossibility. Then there were sky-high fences topped off with coils of barbed wire. Luckily, they weren’t also electrified, but there were surveillance cameras stationed at every corner of the school with instructors there to monitor them in shifts. They may not be the kind to fully focus on their work, but they weren't blind either.
A few other parents seemed to also be in support of the strict but not violent teaching methods, and again, the director went on with his spiel.
“The living accommodations here don’t look too great either…”
It was at this point that Qin Mo finally understood what was happening. The parents who were coming—who came—were there to look into the “school” as an option. So everything about that day was just an act put on for those parents’ sake.
“The living accommodations here don’t look too great either…”
When he heard the shout, Qin Mo thought his ears were broken. {Rest? Rest up before even finishing five laps?}Even during the run, no one was punched or kicked.

After their allotted time in the screening room had ended, Yang Fanghong did not take them out to the grounds for their physical training as usual. Instead, he stood on the platform at the head of the room, flanked by two deputy instructors, and then announced loudly, “Parents will be visiting here today.The piercing cry of a whistle then rang through the air.

Don’t you dare cause a repeat of what happened last time. If any of you get any dumb ideas today, the training for all of you will be doubled!”
As the tubby man spoke, the group happened to pass by the resting Class 9, giving Qin Mo the chance to see a well-dressed and kind-looking woman frown as she asked, “Do you really follow military-styled management here? I heard that it’s common for schools like yours to beat people. Do you all—”“Fυck off. I don’t like it, but I’m a freaking idiot.”

“That’s because we are training the children here to both endure hаrdships and foster a hаrd-working mindset. Kids these days are so spoiled by city life that they either turn into bad kids or end up spoiled rotten to the core. So when they come to us here, we train them like troops. This way, when they leave our firm and guiding hands, they go out into the world as the thoughtful and sensible young adults they are meant to be.”

Qin Mo did as instructed, his back as straight as a soldier’s. The news broadcast still played on the television in the screening room where they were currently eating breakfast that day.

Qin Mo did as instructed, his back as straight as a soldier’s. The news broadcast still played on the television in the screening room where they were currently eating breakfast that day. Watching the rebroadcast of the prior night’s news and having random checks to make sure the students were watching was a regular activity after breakfast every day. If the student can’t answer, they will be made to run laps or do pushups as punishment. But compared to being punched and kicked during their training sessions, such punishments seemed insignificant.
“I’m sorry, ma’am, but the boys and girls here don’t get placed in the same classes.” Qin Mo’s head faced the ground as he added this in a muffled tone, but the woman seemed to notice anything about him that was amiss.Qin Mo did as instructed, his back as straight as a soldier’s.

“What… Do you still have some strong sense of justice now? If you do, why not go be a Mr. Goody Two-shoes and expose the scheme, huh?”“Here, sir!” Shooting off of his seat, Qin Mo instinctively stood at attention.
“What… Do you still have some strong sense of justice now? If you do, why not go be a Mr. Goody Two-shoes and expose the scheme, huh?”
He opened his mouth, but none of what he wanted left his lips.Yang Fanghong continued to select students at random, and upon failing, two boys got pushups as their punishment of choice. But what push-ups meant in that room was different from the ones given on the outside. As per the instructions of the instructors, the students had to be feet-up on the windowsill for these pushups. What’s more, the windows in the screening room were higher than average, so once up, the boys were practically upside down as they pushed their weight against the ground.
He opened his mouth, but none of what he wanted left his lips.
Unfortunately, such an answer wasn’t enough. Throwing a glance at the director in the distance, the woman lowered her voice and asked again, “It’s alright.

“Our academy uses no acts of corporаl punishment—none at all!

I’m sorry to trouble you, then.” With one last smile directed at Qin Mo, the woman turned away, planning to go speak to the director.

Then there were sky-high fences topped off with coils of barbed wire. Luckily, they weren’t also electrified, but there were surveillance cameras stationed at every corner of the school with instructors there to monitor them in shifts. They may not be the kind to fully focus on their work, but they weren't blind either.
While they ran, Qin Mo was made more aware of the difference between the present day and the past. Before, the male instructors would be dressed like soldiers, but their open jackets left their chеsts exposed.“His Excellency, the Premier, visited Country X and met with the President of Country X last evening. Upon meeting, the President of Country X highly praised the relationship of our country with their own before extending a warm welcome to His Excellency for his visit.” Qin Mo almost had the lines of the broadcast repeated word for word, disappointing Yang Fanghong once again. It was the result of Qin Mo’s multitasking skills. He was able to simultaneously receive multіple types of information and critically analyse both.

Before, the male instructors would be dressed like soldiers, but their open jackets left their chеsts exposed. But presently, those jackets were fastened tіghtly, while sombre and upright expressions were plastered on their faces. Not a handcuff was in sight, nor were the batons they usually carried. The only thing hanging from their neat uniforms were whistles hung around their necks.
Yang Fanghong didn’t say anything unnecessary afterwards and ended his announcement with a few more words. He then led everyone outside to begin their training as usual.
A few of the parents really did go over to the group of kids and ask, and the answers they received were the same without exception: They don’t hit us. We might be a bit exhausted from the training here, but our instructors never beat us. Nothing like that happens here.
Yang Fanghong didn’t say anything unnecessary afterwards and ended his announcement with a few more words. He then led everyone outside to begin their training as usual.
With this, Qin Mo was no longer pinned down by Yang Fanghong’s gaze.Without drawing attention to himself, Qin Mo observed the expressions of those around him and realised such threats were the norm.

“Atten-hut! Rest up. You got ten minutes!”A few other parents seemed to also be in support of the strict but not violent teaching methods, and again, the director went on with his spiel.
“Atten-hut! Rest up. You got ten minutes!”
The woman’s quivering eyes calmed after hearing his words, further pronounced by a relieved sigh.After their allotted time in the screening room had ended, Yang Fanghong did not take them out to the grounds for their physical training as usual. Instead, he stood on the platform at the head of the room, flanked by two deputy instructors, and then announced loudly, “Parents will be visiting here today. So you all better be on your best goddamn behaviour. If I catch any of you giving so much as a hint using your goddamn eyes, I will be on your aѕs like white on rice! You hear me?! Don’t you dare cause a repeat of what happened last time. If any of you get any dumb ideas today, the training for all of you will be doubled!”
The woman’s quivering eyes calmed after hearing his words, further pronounced by a relieved sigh.
Even though the place was a private academy and not a prison, it was still an incredibly difficult place to break out of.
Of the inquisitive parents, a wealthy woman, in particular, had rushed over and taken Qin Mo by the hand, a kind look radiating from his face as she asked honestly, “Young man, can you tell me what things here are like?”
Even though the place was a private academy and not a prison, it was still an incredibly difficult place to break out of.
A few other parents seemed to also be in support of the strict but not violent teaching methods, and again, the director went on with his spiel.“Goodness! How could we even think of striking a child in our care?! These days, every child here is considered family—they are our treasures!” The director cut her off and lied without breaking a sweat. “We’re nothing like those other private institutions. We are certified by the Education Bureau itself, and we are the ones who bear the responsibility if someone in our care is harmed. But—it must be noted that as a military-styled institution, we do impose fitting punishments for bad behaviour, such as running laps or restricting them from participating in other activities for the day. I do hope you can understand us doing this much. As parents, you must be well aware of the special circυmstances in which students here are placed in our care.”
A few other parents seemed to also be in support of the strict but not violent teaching methods, and again, the director went on with his spiel.
Yang Fanghong continued to select students at random, and upon failing, two boys got pushups as their punishment of choice. But what push-ups meant in that room was different from the ones given on the outside.“Oh, is that so? I’m sorry to trouble you, then.” With one last smile directed at Qin Mo, the woman turned away, planning to go speak to the director.
Yang Fanghong continued to select students at random, and upon failing, two boys got pushups as their punishment of choice. But what push-ups meant in that room was different from the ones given on the outside. As per the instructions of the instructors, the students had to be feet-up on the windowsill for these pushups. What’s more, the windows in the screening room were higher than average, so once up, the boys were practically upside down as they pushed their weight against the ground.
“That’s because we are training the children here to both endure hаrdships and foster a hаrd-working mindset. Kids these days are so spoiled by city life that they either turn into bad kids or end up spoiled rotten to the core.With this, Qin Mo was no longer pinned down by Yang Fanghong’s gaze.

This way, when they leave our firm and guiding hands, they go out into the world as the thoughtful and sensible young adults they are meant to be.”
“Sit down!” Yang Fanghong bellowed with a snort.
Qin Mo was stunned for a moment, but he managed to respond in a whisper, “They’re... not so bad.”

“Better? What the hell is better about that? It also means other people are coming in.” The first speaker said with a sneer. “That damn director of ours deceives people like those snakes pitching pyrаmid schemes, a damn near savant at selling pipedreams.”While they ran, Qin Mo was made more aware of the difference between the present day and the past.

“Our academy uses no acts of corporаl punishment—none at all! This much, I can personally assure you.” The tubby man swore to the interested parents with a smile, his plump fingers now pointing at the students on the field. “If you don’t believe me, you can ask the kids yourselves.”“Sit down!” Yang Fanghong bellowed with a snort.

The piercing cry of a whistle then rang through the air.
Unfortunately, such an answer wasn’t enough. Throwing a glance at the director in the distance, the woman lowered her voice and asked again, “It’s alright. You can tell me honestly. Do they beat people here? Please don’t lie. I read many reports about places like these doing such things to kids, and it's what I’m afraid of the most. My daughter… She's not really a bad girl, but if nothing else works, she might have to be sent here. So, please, tell me the truth. I swear I won’t breathe a word of it to the director. I promise.”
The piercing cry of a whistle then rang through the air.
{Qin Mo… you’re really… You really are fυcking trash.}The conversing boys lowered their voices after this, so the eavesdropping Qin MO couldn't listen in any further.

When he heard the shout, Qin Mo thought his ears were broken. Rest? Rest up before even finishing five laps?
Earnest and worry. For some reason, this woman’s gaze touched a place in Qin Mo’s heart that was long hidden and unknown, stirring a feeling of conflict and perhaps a bit of envy, too.

“What… Do you still have some strong sense of justice now? If you do, why not go be a Mr. Goody Two-shoes and expose the scheme, huh?”
“Ma’am…” Qin Mo started speaking but quickly noticed Yang Fanghong’s gaze pointing his way. Clenching his jaw, he then added, “We really don’t get beaten here.”

Another woman also asked, “My only concern is whether my child will be beaten. I have no issue with other forms of punishment. That kid of mine is quite tough, so some strict management and training will do them well. They’ll be able to not raise a ruckus during the day.”

Putting aside his shock, Qin Mo followed the group and sat down in place. Just as they did, he caught sight of the tubby admissions director, jiggling beer belly in tow, bumbling down the stairs while wearing a huge grin as he accompanied a group of people.
“Thank you. Really. Thank you so much, young man.” The relieved woman kept hold of Qin Mo’s hand as she added, “My Niannian is a good kid in every way that counts. She’s just a bit too timid. So if you see her, please look out for her, alright?”

Just as they did, he caught sight of the tubby admissions director, jiggling beer belly in tow, bumbling down the stairs while wearing a huge grin as he accompanied a group of people. As they all walked towards the sporting grounds, his thіck lips sputtered as he made his pitch: “As you see, all our facilities are not what you’d call cutting-edge, so they can be used to develop our students’ self-sufficiency. With military-styled management, they can blah blah blah…”
“Goodness! How could we even think of striking a child in our care?!

“Ma’am…” Qin Mo started speaking but quickly noticed Yang Fanghong’s gaze pointing his way. Clenching his jaw, he then added, “We really don’t get beaten here.”So with these troubles in mind, Qin Mo was in deep thought, going over every detail about the school in an attempt to concoct a thorough plan of escape. Since he decided he would break out of that place with Shen Zhuoyun, such a plan was no longer just a fantasy.
“Ma’am…” Qin Mo started speaking but quickly noticed Yang Fanghong’s gaze pointing his way. Clenching his jaw, he then added, “We really don’t get beaten here.”
