Zhou Xiaoyan sighed and said worriedly, "Zhang Tingting is the daughter of a cadre and has some connections. What if she finds someone to make things difficult for us?"

She felt extremely unlucky.

Before I could do anything, I offended a classmate with status and was even accused of a crime.

Wang Lina stood up abruptly and slammed the book in her hand onto the table.

"Why should I be afraid of her! She has connections, but I don't? Even if this matter goes up to the highest heavens, Zhang Tingting will still be in the wrong! If she dares to mess around, I'll fight her to the death!"

Zhou Xiaoyan tugged at Wang Lina's sleeve and whispered, "You should say less. Tingting must be upset about not being elected as a class officer. Just be more understanding. There's no need to go against her and make things so awkward. It will be so embarrassing to get along with her in the future."

Upon hearing this, Wang Lina immediately became furious.

"When she was indirectly insulting me just now, why didn't you advise her to give in to me? Now you're coming over here to play the good guy and let me suffer? What, you're the one being insulted, so it's easy for you to talk when you're not the one suffering, right?"

Zhou Xiaoyan was speechless, her face flushed red, and she muttered softly, "I... I was just afraid that if you make a big fuss, it won't be good for anyone."

Ye Linchen felt a little uncomfortable seeing Zhou Xiaoyan's conciliatory attitude; she didn't like this kind of appeasement approach.

“Zhang Tingting was in the wrong in this matter, and we don’t need to be afraid of her. If we are punished for such a small thing, we will report it to higher authorities. Now we value fairness and justice, not whoever has the highest rank has the final say.”

With the support she received, Wang Lina immediately perked up.

She walked up to Ye Linchen, put her arm around her shoulder, and said smugly, "That's right. If I had been in the wrong today, I would have apologized to her without hesitation. But why did she insult me ​​indirectly? I, Wang Lina, am not someone to be trifled with!"

As Wang Lina was speaking, Zhang Tingting returned in a menacing manner.

Their international trade advisor followed behind them.
