Chapter 64: Come In and Listen
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
While Bai Xue was still thinking about how to defend herself, her phone rang.
She heaved a sigh of relief upon seeing who was calling her. Li Yan had finally arrived—there was no more reason to be afraid.
She said, “Vice-principal, my boyfriend is here to pick me up. Can I ask him to come here first?”
The vice-principal suddenly had a bad premonition. She had actually timed it so perfectly. Bai Xue was truly not easy to deal with. She looked innocent and kind, but she was actually capable of manipulating Li Yan of the Li family.
If the vice-principal didn’t let Li Yan in, he was afraid that he would become the subject of scrutiny. Because of his oversight, a big incident had occurred, and he didn’t want to make things worse. “Since he’s already here, it’s fine to come in and listen.”
Bai Xue picked up the phone and said gently, “Li Yan, can you come to the vice-principal’s office?”
It was unknown what Li Yan said, but Bai Xue said, “Hm? No, you should come over. The vice-principal won’t let me leave, and I can’t do anything about it. Maybe you can talk to the vice-principal.”
Bai Xue smiled and handed the phone to the vice-principal.
Jiang Ling’er smiled mockingly at the scene. Bai Xue was indeed capable. She first told Li Yan where she was, then she revealed that she was being suppressed and couldn’t say everything directly. In the end, she asked Li Yan to deal with the vice-principal.
The vice-principal looked at the phone that Bai Xue handed over. He sneered in his heart. ‘No wonder this woman is so calm. She has everything planned out.’
The vice-principal took the phone and said, “Hello, Young Master Li. Here’s the thing. Your girlfriend reported Jiang Ling’er for cheating, but the report turned out to be false. Since Jiang Ling’er has been wronged, of course, she wants an explanation.”
Li Yan said something from the other end of the call, but the vice-principal didn’t seem to take his words seriously. The vice-principal said, “You can come over and listen to the discussion. Your girlfriend has just arrived, about two minutes before this call. She hasn’t said anything yet. If you insist that your girlfriend should be allowed to leave, Jiang Ling’er’s family won’t agree, either. Don’t you think so?”
After saying that, the vice-principal returned the phone to Bai Xue.
Seeing that the call had not been hung up, Bai Xue quickly put the phone to her ear.
“Alright, Li Yan, I’ll wait for you here.”
After hanging up the phone, Bai Xue stood at the side fearlessly. As long as Li Yan came, these people wouldn’t dare to do anything.
Seeing Bai Xue’s fearless expression, the vice-principal said meaningfully, “Bai Xue, you should explain everything clearly. No one here is forcing you to stay, sothere’s no need for you to ask someone to pick you up.”
Bai Xue was flustered, but she still showed a stiff smile. ‘Is he warning me?’
A few minutes later, there was a knock on the door.
Li Yan and his assistant walked in. Li Yan was unhappy to see Bai Xue isolated.
“Vice-principal, are you trying to teach Bai Xue a lesson?” Li Yan asked.
The vice-principal stood up and stretched out his hand, but Li Yan pretended not to see it and walked straight to Bai Xue.
The vice-principal put down his hand awkwardly. “Young Master Li, don’t misunderstand. I called your girlfriend over to fully understand the situation.”
Li Yan looked at the people in the room. When he saw that Old Masterjiang and Jiang Hua were there, he was even more displeased. If he didn’t come, wouldn’t Bai Xue be bullied to death?
Li Yan shielded Bai Xue behind him and said mockingly, “What kind of situation requires such a lineup?”
One of the invigilators frowned. The Li family was very powerful, but it wasn’t right for him to act so condescendingly.
The invigilator said, “Young Master Li, we were also summoned here to investigate the situation. You, on the other hand, were called over by the instigator as reinforcement.”
Li Yan’s face darkened when he heard this. He said coldly, “Who are you talking about?”
The invigilator was unfazed. “Of course, it’s your girlfriend, Bai Xue. Before we can even ask her anything, she has already summoned you here. Were you just waiting for her to call you?”
“Who do you think you are?” Li Yan asked coldly.
The invigilator said indifferently, “I’m just a normal teacher. If you want to punish me for speaking up, I’m fine with not being a teacher anymore. I’ll just go back to farming.”
Bai Xue was furious inwardly, but she still put on a pitiful expression. She said, “Teacher, 1 have no enmity with you, so why are you targeting me? I asked my boyfriend to pick me up because I have a shoot later and want to go back early
