"Oh dear, you don't know this, do you? Back then, Principal Xiang's wife was pregnant, and he started an affair with Teacher Ge. I saw it several times."

"What a shameless old man. I really don't know how someone like him became our principal, especially since he was parachuted in."

The long-haired teacher looked around, then leaned close to another person's ear and whispered, "Principal Xiang's son-in-law is our Chief Lu. So how do you think this principal came to be?"

Upon hearing this, Xiang Shuxue couldn't contain herself; it was utter nonsense.

While others might not know, she knew all too well how Xiang Xinrong had become the principal.

Before they even arrived on the island, a very important person came to their home, and Xiang Xinrong personally received him throughout the visit; even she and her mother were not allowed to show their faces.

When the important man left, Xiang Xinrong gave him a small box, which was full of money!

The next day he told them that he was coming to the island to be the principal, and that she was a teacher.

Looking back now, I realize that his position as principal and her position as teacher were both secured by that powerful figure who spent money.

It has absolutely nothing to do with the Lu family.

She immediately turned around and told Xiang Wanwan everything that had happened.

Xiang Wanwan was also shocked after hearing this. It seems that the person behind her scumbag father is not simple!

She remembered that Lu Jingnian had mentioned it before, saying that the person was difficult to deal with.

And a whole box of money! No wonder he took the check for 30,000 so readily last time; he had so much money on hand!

It seems that the vault she emptied before was only the visible part; a lot of it must have been stored in the bank, including her mother's dowry.

What a cunning old capitalist! He's certainly got three burrows; he's right.

In just a short time, Xiang Wanwan and her companion heard a lot of gossip, mostly about how terrible the father was and how the principal's position was illegitimate.

After listening to the story, I realized that Xiang Xinrong was not popular at school.

He's self-righteous, acts like a patriarch in everything he does, and has to lecture everyone he sees. The young teachers at the school have been suffering from this for a long time.

Once everyone had arrived, Xiang Xinrong and Ge Meihua came in.

There were six tables set up in total. The dishes were average, but all of them contained meat.

The scumbag father, with his arm around Ge Meihua, walked to the center. He coughed lightly, then raised his voice and began to speak: "Today is a big day for me, Xiang Xinrong. After more than half a year, I finally have a son! Hahaha!"

"Pfft!" As soon as Xiang Xinrong finished speaking, Xiang Wanwan's clear laughter echoed throughout the entire cafeteria.

"Dad, anyone who didn't know better would think the Xiang family had a throne to inherit. You already have three daughters, and you're over fifty, yet you still insist on having a son."

Upon hearing this, everyone covered their mouths to suppress their laughter.

Xiang Xinrong's wrinkled face immediately darkened, and he glared angrily at Xiang Wanwan.

"Shut up, who told you to speak?"

"Dad, didn't you invite us here? Are we not allowed to speak?"

Xiang Xinrong felt like he had shot himself in the foot; why did he have to invite those two unfilial daughters?

At this moment, Ge Meihua, holding the child, immediately came out to smooth things over.

"Wanwan, how dare you talk to your father like that! Today is a joyous occasion, so say less."

Xiang Wanwan's lips curled slightly: "Teacher Ge, right? You're really going all out. To climb the social ladder, you're almost menopausal, and you even gave birth to a son for my dad. You've only given birth a few days ago, and you're already out here. Don't you need to rest and recuperate?"

"Or are you afraid that if you're not around, another woman will take your place?"

Xiang Shuxue stared in disbelief.

Wow! Absolutely amazing!

As expected of Xiang Wanwan, it seems she held back when she criticized me back then. (This chapter has been read. Please click to continue reading the next chapter!)
