"You can't trust what I say, but you can trust what Teacher Liu says! Just because her father is the vice principal of the school? So you rush to flatter her?"

Shen Changan sneered repeatedly and directly told the information he knew. Director Chen frowned when he heard it.

"Don't talk nonsense. What Teacher Liu said is true. Things do get stolen from the school office quite often. Unless you can catch the thief yourself, you won't be able to clear Jiang Yi of suspicion."

"Did Jiang Yi steal the things that were lost in the office? Just because he went to the office to look for them, I become a suspect? Or do you think his family is poor and only poor people would steal things?"

"As the Dean of Studies, you only believed Teacher Liu's one-sided story, looked at the student through tinted glasses, and easily convicted him. You only asked him to apologize and admit his mistakes, but you actually ruined his life!"

Shen Changan's voice was sonorous and powerful, and every word he said struck Jiang Li's heart.

This is what she wanted to say, but she didn't expect Shen Changan to agree with her again.

Jiang Li's heart was filled with excitement, and he looked at Shen Changan with a hint of gratitude and admiration.

This man is worthy of being the male protagonist. Not only is he clear-headed, but he also speaks so nicely.

Director Chen had just been scolded by Jiang Li, and now Shen Changan, an unemployed external teacher and a temporary worker, dared to speak to him like this. It was simply outrageous!

Director Chen’s chest heaved up and down with anger, and he pointed at Shen Changan’s nose.

"You, you, you don't need to come to school tomorrow! Our school is small and can't accommodate a teacher like you who always asks for leave, talks back at the leaders, and doesn't do his job properly!"

"I've only taken a couple of days off for something. Even when I was sick before, I still taught the students. During my time at the school, the students' math scores have improved significantly. If Director Chen doesn't believe me, you can look at the class average scores from the recent tests."

"I'm trying to reason with Director Chen. I have no intention of contradicting you or disobeying management. Director Chen's power is too much to fire me for this reason."

Director Chen's threat did not scare Shen Changan. In fact, he was not easily scared.

Director Chen has the power to expel a student who has violated discipline multiple times and has been absent from classes for a long time, but he doesn't have the power to expel him.

"I don't want to see you anymore. Please pack your things right now. You don't need to attend class today. I will arrange for another teacher to replace you."

Director Chen was so angry that he completely forgot that he did not have the right to fire the teacher.

What he is doing now is bullying Shen Changan because he has no establishment and is not a formally hired teacher of the school, so he is not taken seriously.

"I remember that the Dean of Studies didn't have the right to fire teachers. I was hired through an interview with Principal Liu, and my abilities were recognized by him."

"Even if Director Chen really wants to expel me, shouldn't he at least let Principal Liu know? Otherwise, it won't be easy to explain when Principal Liu asks about it."

Director Chen wanted to fire him, but Shen Changan not only did not feel afraid, but was also looking forward to Principal Liu's reaction after he knew about this.

"If I tell you to leave, just leave now! You don't need to worry about other things. I don't need you to teach me what to do. I can arrange it myself!"

"Okay then. I'll go first."

Director Chen thought to himself that Principal Liu was on a business trip to participate in work exchanges with other schools during this period and was not in school at the moment. Even if Shen Changan wanted to complain to Principal Liu, he had no chance.

He fired him directly now. He was just a temporary worker and nothing could be done to him.

Teachers are so popular these days that even a small temporary job is very popular.

As soon as Shen Changan leaves, the school will be able to recruit a matching person immediately, so there is no need to worry about vacancies.

Director Chen has thought of everything and calculated everything clearly, which is why he is so confident.

Shen Changan turned and left, and Jiang Li followed him out.

With Shen Changan being fired, Jiang Yi's matter seemed to have come to nothing.

The main reason is that Director Chen is angry now and can't take care of Jiang Li, but he can't take care of Jiang Yi either.

The two left one after the other. Shen Changan did not go back to the office directly, but went straight to the back mountain of the school.

Jiang Li knew the situation at Shen Changan's home, and also knew that this job was not worth mentioning to him, so he was not that worried.

But Shen Changan was implicated because of his brother's affairs. If she didn't care, it would seem that she was too cold-blooded.

Jiang Li followed him silently, wanting to say something but feeling embarrassed. Anyway, she couldn't let Shen Changan know that she knew he was neither sad nor upset.

"Teacher Shen, what are you going to do next?"

Jiang Li was thinking about his two children at home, so he finally spoke.

Shen Changan paused for a moment, but still didn't speak.

"If you don't say anything, I'll leave first."

Jiang Licai would not tolerate him and turned around to leave.

"Don't leave yet. I have something to ask you. Let's go over there and talk."

Shen Changan pointed to the grove behind the school, but Jiang Li disagreed to go that far.

"Just say whatever you want to say. Teacher Shen knows that I have two children at home waiting for me to go back and take care of them. I can't leave home for too long."

Shen Changan opened his mouth and hesitated to speak. How could he have the nerve to ask directly about that matter?

"Did you go to the guesthouse in town to eat noodles on March 31st last year?"

"I have eaten, what's wrong?"

Jiang Li silently clenched her fists. According to her memory, Shen Changan was drunk and went out to the bathroom, so he must have seen the original owner.

Moreover, if you just check or ask Shen Changan about these things, you will know that she has been there.

Since he asked about it, he must have a lot of evidence. Is he planning to confront her?

Jiang Li felt a little nervous, his heart beating uncontrollably, but his expression was calm.

"How long did it take you to eat a bowl of noodles?"

"I don't remember how long it's been. My family was very poor back then, and I'd never eaten anything this delicious. So I ate each noodle slowly, savoring it as I went along. I just couldn't bear to finish it."

"Then the guesthouse was about to close, so I had no choice but to finish it all."

Jiang Li's voice was calm, even his tone was gentle, and he didn't seem nervous at all.

And before he even asked her why it took so long to finish a bowl of noodles, Jiang Li had already given her a detailed explanation.

Although what she said made sense, Shen Changan became even more suspicious of her.

"Where did you go after eating the noodles? Did you stay at the guesthouse or go back home?"

"Of course I went back. With my family's financial situation, I can't afford to stay in a guesthouse. By the way, why are you suddenly asking me these questions? Do these things have anything to do with you?"

Jiang Li looked at Shen Changan in confusion, and Shen Changan also stared into her eyes.
