"Do you think that I'm kidding?" The vice-principal knocked on the table lightly. His expression turned even more serious as he scolded, "This is not a joke! If it wasn't for your good results, we would have taken back your notification letter. Your results would be canceled."
Ye Jian wasn't moved. However, the parents behind her were shocked. What's happening? Even good results could be canceled? Cheating?
Discussions arose behind Ye Jian. Everyone looked at Ye Jian questioningly. Some people started pointing at her. The registration was stopped.
But this wasn't the result the vice-principal wanted. He didn't want to scare the other students and the parents. He wanted to scare Ye Jian.
"Classmate Ye Jian, this is not a joke. We know you have good results but your character is problematic. After some discussion, the school decided to be lenient on you."
Ye Jian raised her eyebrows slightly. She looked calmer than the vice-principal.
At least, to the policemen who came to help with the registration, this young lady had a gentle smile on her face all the time.
The vice-principal's back was drenched with sweat. After listening to everything he said, Ye Jian only raised her eyebrows slightly. He wanted to drink some water so he moved his hand. There was no cup there. This was not his office. Hence, there was no cup for him to drink water.
Ye Jian saw this and laughed softly. She finally opened her mouth. "So, what's the verdict?"
The vice-principal heaved a sigh of relief. He instantly replied, "You'll still be accepted into the school but you can only become an associate student. The benefits that the school offered you will be canceled too."
So this was the verdict. It sounded quite lenient.
The policemen's expressions changed. The result sounded lenient but in actual fact, it was unfair.
The status as an associate student was a humiliation for her.
This was even worse than rejecting her application.
They looked at Ye Jian. What was this student thinking? If she wanted to continue studying, she had to accept this criterion.
The vice-principal smiled confidently after he finished speaking. The student would have to accept this verdict whether she wanted to or not.
The school wouldn't lose an outstanding student but he still managed to answer to his leader. Killing two birds with one stone.
The parents and students behind Ye Jian gave a look of contempt when they heard this. They were looking down on Ye Jian. Someone who got good results from cheating managed to enter Municipal No.1 Middle School as an associate student. This was a blessing for her.
There were many students who wanted to enter Municipal No.1 Middle School but couldn't.
Yet, everyone forgot to ask Ye Jian if she really wanted to accept this verdict.
"Oh, I see." Ye Jian smiled as she stood up. She looked down at the vice-principal and said slowly, "The verdict seems alright. I'm still able to study at Municipal No.1 Middle School."
The vice-principal thought that she agreed. Hence, he said, "That's right. This is the greatest allowance the school can give you. You must treasure this chance…"
