"Principal Yang, the words Teacher Wang said are indeed all true, Shen Mianmian really stole money. I can bear witness, and Siyu can also testify. Shen Mianmian is just a thief, she spouts foul language and pretends to be rich at school. In fact, all that money, she stole it. Her top rank in the city isn’t gotten through proper means either. Someone leaked the test to her, and that’s how she scored so well."
Seizing the opportunity, Zhao Xinlan hurriedly came forward to malign Shen Mianmian, not believing that the school would tolerate such a student.
"Do you have any evidence that she cheated?" It was not easy to have a top student in the school, and yet they were questioning Shen Mianmian’s academic record. Principal Yang’s face darkened, "If you say the middle school exam was compromised by leaked questions, then who leaked the monthly exam questions to her here? Her academic performance hasn’t dropped at all, still ranking first in comprehensive scores."
Seeing him defend Shen Mianmian, Zhou Siyu knew that this attempt to tattle would likely be in vain again, but she was somewhat unwilling to give up. "Principal Yang, let’s put aside the issue with my cousin’s academic performance for now. But her stealing money is a real fact. Many people have confirmed she stole money. Are you not going to inquire about this?"
Principal Yang snorted coldly, and his look at Zhou Siyu was not kind. As Shen Mianmian’s younger cousin, instead of discussing any issues at home, she was causing trouble at school, which was clearly suspicious.
These days, there were too many people who couldn’t bear to see others live well, and since Zhou Siyu studied at Second High, he was even more dissatisfied with her behavior.
How could a student from their school be bullied by someone from Second High?
Especially, when they come to do the bullying?
"Theft within the school is our responsibility, but theft outside of school is a matter for the police. If you are convinced she stole something, then report it to the police. We are not officers, and it’s not our job to catch thieves."
This clearly meant that he was protecting Shen Mianmian, and neither Zhou Siyu nor Wan Dongcheng expected this outcome. Their faces suddenly changed, and Zhao Xinlan was the most impatient, directly raising her voice to question.
"You clearly know Shen Mianmian stole money, yet you’re covering for her . How can such a school teach students well? No wonder people don’t send their children to Third High. Only those with poor grades and bad conduct are willing to come here."
This statement was quite excessive, and even the teachers present changed their expressions uniformly.
"Wan Dongcheng, you from Second High are going too far. A teacher accompanied by a student comes to Third High and spouts nonsense. I’d like to go to your school to talk to your principal and see whose idea this was." Principal Yang glared furiously at Wan Dongcheng, his face red and neck thick with anger.
"Principal Yang, we merely came in good faith to point out an issue with the character of a student at your school, expecting you to handle it. Yet you defend the student and plan to accuse us in return?"
Principal Yang was the principal of Third High, not of Second High, so Wan Dongcheng wasn’t afraid of him. Moreover, he was not fond of his current job, which only made him more confident. Thıs text ıs hosted at 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭⟡𝘧𝘪𝘳𝘦⟡𝘯𝘦𝘵
Just as Principal Yang was about to speak, a crisp voice came from the office doorway.
"If I truly stole thousands of yuan, the police would have arrested me long ago. How could the teachers from Second High have the right to interfere in this matter? Second High’s teachers coming to Third High to make trouble without any substantial evidence, what great quality the Second High teachers have."
Hearing the voice, everyone turned uniformly to look, and there was Shen Mianmian and Lu Siyuan walking in.
"Principal, teachers, good day."
Shen Mianmian bowed politely to them, and Lu Siyuan followed suit with a greeting.
