Often, the heaviest punishment is the one left unspoken.
Although Chi Youyou hadn’t experienced these events, it didn’t mean she didn’t understand.
If she stated her demands, the school would surely comply. If the punishment was too severe, they could use her as a scapegoat.
But by not making demands, the school couldn’t make a decision. What if she was unhappy with a lighter punishment?
So they decided on the most severe course of action.

Call me a scheming girl~
"Chi Youyou! It’s all your fault!"
"Fellow student, please watch your words."
Zheng Jingjing, already provoked by Liu Yan, now saw Chi Youyou and let her resentment loose, charging straight at her.
But Chi Youyou dodged her.
Ji Changqing stepped between them, speaking coldly.
"Since Zheng Jingjing cannot recognize her mistakes and even intends to threaten... the school will not tolerate students with such bad behavior!"
The principal’s face darkened.
The incident at the opening ceremony had seriously affected the school. A student publicly defamed another out of jealousy, hired someone to secretly photograph and slander them!
Originally, they wanted to leave her some dignity, but now...
"Zheng Jingjing, the school already gave you a chance, but you didn’t seize it. All I can do is apologize, but your actions have seriously harmed the school’s interests, so I’ve decided to expel you!"
As for Liu Yan, not only did you not stop Zheng Jingjing’s proposal, but you also maliciously helped her. However, considering your lack of choice, we’ve decided to put you on probation. If there’s another offense, you’ll be advised to leave the school, and in severe cases, you’ll be expelled!"
...
"Chi Youyou!"
Chi Youyou, having received the answer she wanted, left the principal’s office satisfied. But no sooner had she left than Zheng Jingjing caught up with her.
"What’s the matter, Senior Sister Zheng?"
She faced her with an innocent expression, "It seems like Senior Sister Zheng has no remorse."
"Don’t be so smug! I admit it! But I curse you to end up worse than me!"
"Pff——"
Chi Youyou looked at Zheng Jingjing’s contorted face and couldn’t help but laugh.
At that moment, she wasn’t a little white rabbit at all, but more like a cunning big fox.
"It seems Senior Sister Zheng not only lacks remorse but also lacks scientific knowledge. No wonder you ended up being bitten by the dog beside you in the end."
With that, she glanced past Zheng Jingjing.
"Liu Yan!"
Zheng Jingjing turned to see Liu Yan approaching, with tear streaks on her face, but no longer looking pitiful.
"Goodbye, Senior Sister Zheng. Have a nice chat with your little lapdog. I think it will give you more peace of mind when you leave school."
Chi Youyou glanced back and forth between the two before striding away.
Staying another minute, she’d worry she wouldn’t be able to control her violent tendencies and go beat them both up.
"Why! I was so kind to you! Why did you do this!"
"Why? Do you even need to ask? It’s because you didn’t pay enough!"
"You!"
Liu Yan sneered, "Besides, you only treated me like a dog that came when called and waved away when not needed! Didn’t you want me to take the blame for you before? Just because you’re rich? But you never expected that there are plenty of people out there richer than you."
"What good does this do you!"
"Good? Money, of course! I need money; you rich people wouldn’t understand! But don’t worry, next up is Chi Youyou. Let her show off a bit longer. Offending those people will only make things worse for her!"
