Her overwhelming anger turned into utter humiliation; Zhou Yuexin felt that her good-for-nothing son had completely disgraced her.

It's all her fault for not asking about the details over the phone; she only heard that her son had been beaten up and rushed over in a panic.

She wouldn't have come if she knew her son was beaten like this by a woman; it would be too embarrassing.

But since they've already come all this way, this matter naturally needs to be settled, otherwise those scoundrels will start bullying her son in the future.

It can be considered a warning to others.

Feeling increasingly aggrieved, Zhou Yuexin glared at Fu Yixun. "You did something so shameful and I have to clean up your mess? You'll be sorry when we get back."

"Mom...it's not her fault, it's all my fault, how about we just let it go like this..."

Fu Yixun swallowed hard and quickly spoke.

"Shut up! Aren't you embarrassed enough already?!"

Zhou Yuexin glared fiercely at her son before turning her gaze intently to Jing Li.

Calculate?

It can't be calculated.

I'm afraid it won't be long before the news spreads that the Fu family's son was brutally beaten by a woman. Doesn't the Fu family have any shame?!

"Not very old, but quite bold."

With a cold snort, Zhou Yuexin said disparagingly.

"It's alright, after all, I grew up eating bear's heart and leopard's gall."

Jing Li chuckled softly and retorted.

"puff!"

Fu Yixun couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Zhou Yuexin was speechless at her words and glared at her son resentfully.

The latter lowered his head dejectedly, only daring to steal glances at Jing Li out of the corner of his eye, his face growing redder with each look.

"Since you dared to make a move, you should have thought about the consequences."

Softening her tone, Zhou Yuexin sat down on the sofa.

Outside the door, Fu Yibin overheard the head of the news department saying that someone had anonymously uploaded the incident of Fu Yixun being beaten to the campus forum.

"Someone has already posted screenshots of the forum posts on Weibo, and I'm afraid this matter will spread very quickly."

"Delete the post, and I'll handle it on Weibo by simply checking the poster's ID."

With a slight frown, Fu Yibin hung up the phone and sent a message to his father's assistant, asking him to help stop the matter from spreading.

Once word gets out, it will only be the Fu family that loses face.

What he had to do was to completely suppress the matter before it escalated.

Thinking of his brother, who was more trouble than he was worth, Fu Yibin felt a headache coming on.

The only way to quell this matter is to expel Jing Li from school. Once she leaves the school as the person primarily responsible, the public attention will naturally decrease.

I don't know how the talks went.

Just as Fu Yibin was about to return to the principal's office, he turned around and saw a group of people approaching menacingly.

His eyes were filled with astonishment, and he stood there, stunned.

They... are Jing Li's backers?!

In the office, Zhou Yuexin's words were quite sharp.

Her method of resolving the matter was equally simple and brutal.

"No matter what the cause and effect are, hitting someone is wrong. Once you are expelled, I guarantee that no high school in Yanjing will dare to accept you again. If you don't want your lower body to be ruined, you'd better do as I say."

"What does Mrs. Fu want me to do?"

Jing Li raised an eyebrow and asked with a smile.

"If you don't want to be expelled, it's simple: one, let my son come back; two, apologize to my son in front of the whole school."

Even though she knew her son was in the wrong, Zhou Yuexin couldn't treat everyone the same.

Dropping out of school is too cruel for a young girl, and she would disdain doing it, but that doesn't mean she would swallow her anger and bear it.

She didn't want to ruin a young girl's future, but the premise for not ruining it was that the girl knew how to exercise discretion.

Smart people know how to choose.
