After being reminded by Mo Zhu, Elder Xu immediately came back to his senses. Thinking of what had happened in school recently, he sighed unhurriedly and replied, “You came to find me for matters regarding that girl called Xing Meng, right?”
Mo Zhu raised her eyebrows and stared at Elder Xu with deep meaning in her eyes. “I just came to school today and I heard that this young lady had been really overbearing and had been injuring and bullying others in Jingyang High School.”
After a pause, Mo Zhu picked up her teacup and took a sip of tea before continuing, “I just don’t know why the school can tolerate such incidents happening repeatedly in the school compounds and not stop it.”
Elder Xu raised his hand and pinched the space between his eyebrows helplessly. “Xiao Zhu, what you said does exist, but the people involved are not as simple as you think.”
“Oh? Are you willing to share the details?” Mo Zhu placed her hand on the wooden desk and started tapping lightly.
Elder Xu understood Mo Zhu’s personality. She would never back down, especially when Xing Meng had laid her hands on the students of Class Eight. He had long expected that Mo Zhu would find him to seek justice when she knew about this matter. However, he did not expect this day to come so early.
Seeing Mo Zhu’s persistence, Elder Xu sighed and replied helplessly, “Xiao Zhu, it’s not that I don’t want to meddle in this matter, but I can’t and I don’t have the ability to. The reason why Jingyang High School has been able to operate in Cloud City until now is all because of the Xu family in Beijing who had been backing me.”
Elder Xu paused for a moment. Afraid that Mo Zhu wouldn’t understand, he explained to the girl in detail, “A few days ago, I heard that you had gone to Beijing personally. Then, you should be even more aware of the current chaotic situation in Beijing. The Xu family’s development is getting worse by the day. It can’t be ranked at all in the noble families. With the Xu family’s current strength, not to mention the Xing family, even the families in Cloud City can’t suppress them…”
When Mo Zhu heard this, the tempo of her tapping on the desk slowly stopped. She looked up at Elder Xu indifferently and said, “So? Isn’t this the reason why you don’t care about the students of Jingyang High School? Aren’t they innocent?”
Elder Xu lowered his head, his expression lonely as if he had aged ten years. “I have no choice…”
Just as he finished speaking, he seemed to have thought of something. Elder Xu immediately raised his head and stared intently at Mo Zhu, a glint flashed across his eyes. “Xiao Zhu, I have a good idea. As long as you agree to take over Jingyang High School, everything can be solved. Not to mention that I trust your ability fully, but even if that doesn’t work, you still have the Huo family from Beijing backing you up. As long as you agree, we can complete the procedures tomorrow!”
When Mo Zhu heard this, she raised her hand thoughtfully and propped her chin up. She pondered quietly for a moment and replied indifferently, “I’ll consider this matter seriously. I’ll give you an answer after I’ve thought it through.”
After saying this, Mo Zhu stood up and left the principal’s office.
She walked all the way to the school gate. When Mo Zhu arrived, Mo Wu’s car had already stopped at the gate on time.
Mo Zhu waved at Liu Yuan and Li Shen, who were standing by the road. The three of them got into the car and rushed to the hospital.
In a few minutes, Mo Wu stopped the car at the entrance of the hospital. Mo Zhu took the silver needles that Mo Wu had prepared in advance and Li Shen brought them to Meng Ran and Zhang Qi’s ward.
In the ward, Meng Ran was lying on the hospital bed with her face facing up. Her limbs were wrapped in thick bandages, and other than talking and eating, she could not move at all. She stared at the ceiling above her head in boredom and took the initiative to talk to Zhang Qi, who was on the next bed. “Zhang Qi, it’s not a solution for us to lie down like this. Although I asked Lili to let my parents know that I’m staying at her house for the next two days, it’s been a few days. I can’t tell them that I want to stay at Lili’s house for the rest of my life, right?”
Zhang Qi’s condition wasn’t any better at this moment. He frowned and comforted her, “Don’t worry. My parents have already gone to look for a famous doctor. In addition, there’s still Jiang Xun, right? His father is very powerful. As long as we don’t give up, we’ll definitely recover.”
“Don’t try to coax me. I’ve seen the scans the doctor gave me last time. Not a single bone in me is fine.. They’re all broken. Boohoo…”
