Chapter 269: Insignificant Plaything
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
‘The damn girl, why didn’t she mention it earlier?’ Rong Feiyu thought. As soon as she saw Ye Nanshen, jealousy overwhelmed her heart.
She took a step forward and spoke softly, “Mr. Ye, you don’t know yet, do you? My sister is bullying others and injuring students from our class. The university is discussing expelling her. 1 don’t know how she can be so reckless? Mr. Ye, please don’t blame my sister. 1 believe she realizes her mistake.”
Ye Nanshen sneered, “Did 1 say 1 blame her?”
Rong Feiyu froze, thinking she must have misheard. She thought, ‘Rong Qi was about to be expelled. How could Ye Nanshen not be angry about this humiliating matter?’
Before Rong Feiyu could speak, Ye Nanshen continued, “If Little Qi gets expelled, what reason do you have to stay at Capital University?”
Ye Nanshen smiled and continued, “Don’t forget, you’re just an accessory to Little Qi. You were allowed into Capital University to take care of her, not to sow discord. If you want Little Qi to leave, you should also consider if you’re qualified enough.”
Ye Nanshen’s words were straightforward and concise, like a sharp sword that mercilessly exposed Rong Feiyu’s hidden self-esteem.
Rong Feiyu could feel the people around were shocked and probing gazes. The self-esteem and confidence she had painstakingly built up crumbled instantly. Her face turned as pale as paper, her body swaying, and she bit her lip. Her eyes were reddened, and an unprecedented sense of humiliation overwhelmed her. She stubbornly said, “1 didn’t… How could I hope for my sister to be expelled?”
“Since you claim you didn’t, then step aside. You have no right to speak here.” Ye Nanshen’s words were just as unrelenting.
Rong Feiyu didn’t dare to say anything more. Her appearance, bearing the weight of humiliation, pained Rong Tianshi.
With an annoyed glance, Rong Tianshi looked at Rong Qi standing in the corner, wearing a mask for who knows what reason. He said, “Mr. Ye, this matter has nothing to do with Feiyu. Rong Qi, that defiant girl, caused trouble herself, and the university wants to expel her. Mr. Ye, please understand! Feiyu didn’t do anything wrong. Why should she be expelled for no reason?”
Ye Nanshen chuckled softly and said casually, “Since she’s just an accessory, she should fulfill her duty. If she can’t, then she should bear the consequence of being abandoned. Moreover, she’s just an insignificant plaything. Why should I care?”
After speaking, Ye Nanshen waved at Rong Qi and said, “Little Qi, come here.”
Rong Qi, who wanted to be invisible, glanced at Ye Nanshen and reluctantly moved over. If she had known this would happen, she wouldn’t have made that phone call.
Rong Qi walked over to Ye Nanshen and said rudely, “Why did you call me over?”
Rong Qi’s bad attitude shocked everyone.
However, Ye Nanshen’s tone was gentle, in stark contrast to his earlier mocking tone. He gave Rong Qi a quick glance, his gaze stopping on her hand. His face darkened slightly and said, “You’re injured.”
Rong Qi glanced down and saw two scratches on the back of her left hand. She replied softly, “It’s nothing.”
Ye Nanshen, however, sneered, his icy gaze sweeping over Qiu Yonggen and the others. Ye Nanshen said, “I let the little one study here, not to get hurt. Mr. Qiu, you’ve been in this position for so long that you’ve forgotten what it’s like for others, right?”
Qiu Yonggen was frightened. He really wanted to say to Ye Nanshen that it was just a minor injury. Compared to the injuries of the eighteen students like Zhong Wentao, it’s really nothing.
Tang Lin’s brow furrowed with suppressed anger. He was opinionated and disliked authority. Especially in a situation like this, when his students were being bullied and he was doing nothing about it.
Tang Lin said, “Mr. Ye, Rong Qi is bullying students in my class. With just these minor injuries, are you really going to make a fuss? What about the injuries my students in my class suffered? They’re all top students of Capital University. Are they just supposed to endure being bullied?”
Ye Nanshen retorted, “Why should I care?”
