The teacher paused for a moment, clearly understanding the implied meaning in Mei Shu’s words. His expression changed completely, and he sternly said, “Who did this? Stand up now. I can still give you a chance to repent and change, but if you refuse to admit it, don’t blame me for reporting this to the principal!”
As soon as he said this, the students in the class all fell silent, and no one dared to make a sound.
Those who had been enjoying the show just moments ago now had ashamed expressions on their faces.
Zhou Li was still crying, tear by tear. She was extremely frightened at the moment. If the teacher found out that she was also involved, her fate would be even more miserable.
Fortunately, the suffocating atmosphere in the classroom didn’t last too long, as Mei Mu finally brought the school nurse hurriedly to the scene.
With the help of the school nurse, Zhou Li was finally freed from the chair, but the skin on the back of her thighs had turned red. Seeing her crying so miserably, it was evident that she had suffered a lot.
The entire class had wasted almost half of the class time due to this incident, with the exception of Mei Shu, who quietly followed her study plan, surprisingly even more efficient than before.
Zhou Li had been successfully rescued, and now it was time for her to face the consequences.
The teacher stood on the podium, his expression stern, and asked sharply, “Who did it? Admit it now, or I’ll personally investigate. You know the difference between the two!”
The classmates below looked at each other, but not one of them dared to step forward.
After a while, the class monitor, Zhang Hao, raised his hand with a serious expression and said, “Teacher, when I came back at noon, I saw many classmates gathered around Mei Shu’s seat.”
“Who were they?” The teacher asked with a deep frown.
The class monitor then listed all the names of the students he saw.
The teacher clearly did not expect that Zhou Li was among them. His expression became even more unpleasant. “Zhou Li, explain why you were also around Mei Shu’s seat.”
Zhou Li was so frightened that her face turned pale. Combined with the pain in her legs, she could barely stand and almost fell to the ground. Her whole body was trembling as she said, “Teacher, I really have nothing to do with this. If I had known beforehand, why would I have sat there?”
She wanted to easily brush it off, but the teacher wasn’t a fool.
“Didn’t you just say that Mei Shu pulled you over to sit there?” The teacher asked sternly.
Zhou Li nodded vigorously. “Yes, Mei Shu pulled me over, but I really didn’t know there was glue on her seat. If I had known, I would have resisted with all my might!”
“Zhou Li!” The teacher slammed the table, reprimanding with deep disappointment, “Teachers at the First High School like you all because you are students who love to study and have good character, not bad girls who are full of lies and bully classmates!”
Zhou Li was so frightened that she didn’t dare to make a sound.
The teacher continued angrily, “All the students named by the class monitor, come with me to the office! I want all of you to speak clearly!”
After speaking, the teacher lost all interest in teaching, took the textbook, and left the classroom.
These students had twisted minds, no matter how good their grades were, they were of no use. In the future, they would become troublesome individuals in society. While he still had the qualifications for proper guidance, he had to help them correct their faults!
Over a dozen students followed the teacher out of the classroom with downcast expressions, most of them boys, and a few girls who were Mei Mu’s former followers. Anyone with discerning eyes could tell what was going on.
Weren’t they just trying to avenge Mei Mu?
Mei Mu was anxious too. After hesitating for a while, she decided to follow them. She had to intercede for them at the crucial moment, so that they would be more devoted to helping her in the future.
Mei Shu couldn’t be bothered to join in the commotion, so she simply swapped her chair with Zhou Li’s. Once settled back in her own seat, she took out her workbook and began to diligently work on her exercises.
She still had one test paper left to complete during this class, and the system was going to reward her with twenty thousand Yuan for it!
Seeing this scene, other students couldn’t help but secretly admire Mei Shu’s composure.
However, some found it laughable.
With Mei Shu’s current grades, what use would it be to start studying hard now?
Since there was no teacher in the classroom to supervise them, some boys, feeling emboldened, left their seats and intentionally stood beside Mei Shu to watch her answer the questions.
Zhang Hao frowned unhappily. “Go back to your seats and study quietly. Don’t disturb others’ studies!”
“Who did I disturb? I’m just watching. If Mei Shu needs help with a difficult problem, maybe I can explain it to her!”
The boy continued to touch his chin, standing next to Mei Shu. No matter how Zhang Hao urged him, he refused to return to his seat.
This statement caused some students to laugh and mock him, “With your grades, you want to tutor others? Well, maybe you can’t tutor Mei Mu, the school goddess, but tutoring Mei Shu? You should have more than enough ability to tutor her!”
Upon hearing this, that person became even more proud. “Of course! No matter what, I can pass all subjects in the exams.. Compared to some students who can only get 10 or 20 marks in exams, I can be considered a top student!”
