Chapter 68 An Shixia hits someone, Yan Lingyu hands him a stick
The dean of academic affairs was startled by his suddenly raised voice, causing his hand to tremble and accidentally touch the broadcast switch. He didn't notice and looked at He Huaisheng with displeasure.
"What's wrong now?"
He Huaisheng's tone was very firm: "Teacher, Yaoyao can't be reported again. Do you want her to be unable to work in the future?"
After he finished speaking, he turned to look at An Shixia and continued, "You've already ruined Yao Yao's piano career, and now you want to ruin her internship too? You haven't been hurt at all, can't you be a little more magnanimous?"
An Shixia looked at him coldly, took a step forward, and slapped him.
"What is that? How could you say such disgusting things? Get off him right now!"
As she spoke, she hit it a few more times, trying to get the filth out as she did so.
Wu Yang couldn't help but laugh, then picked up a stick from somewhere and said, "Let me handle this. He's probably possessed by something, which is why he can't distinguish right from wrong. After all, He Xiaochong is the most fair and just person."
Seeing that the situation was getting out of control, the dean of academic affairs slammed his hand on the table: "Alright, alright, stop it."
He also disapproved of He Huaisheng's actions; otherwise, he would have stopped An Shixia after the first blow.
He Huaisheng wanted to retaliate, but he restrained himself in front of the head of the teaching department, though his eyes showed some dissatisfaction.
How dare An Shixia hit him? Does she not want his forgiveness anymore?
He was just asking An Shixia to be more magnanimous; it didn't harm her interests at all, which is really puzzling.
Yao Yao is so sensible; she won't make him feel so stressed.
"Brother Sheng, are you alright?"
Jiang Zhiyao looked at the slap mark on his face and glared at An Shixia: "An Shixia, you've gone too far! How could you hit someone?"
Yan Lingyu pulled An Shixia to his side, took her hand and looked at it: "Does it hurt? If you hit someone again, tell me, and I'll hand you the tools."
"It doesn't hurt, it's just a little numb."
Yan Lingyu gently massaged An Shixia's palms, like a doting husband.
An Shixia's attack came suddenly, and Yan Lingyu didn't have time to give her the stick, so he handed it to Wu Yang and told him to go up and hit her.
Unbeknownst to them, this scene was being broadcast live.
The dean of academic affairs coughed lightly, drawing everyone's attention to him: "This matter has been discussed. Jiang Zhiyao put cheat sheets in the crack of the desk, almost causing someone to be framed. She will definitely receive a reprimand and a demerit. Of course, if you can obtain the forgiveness of the person involved, you can resolve this privately."
The dean of academic affairs finally softened. He knew that Jiang Zhiyao came from an ordinary family and had worked hard to get into university. If she were to receive another demerit, her life would be ruined.
An Shixia understood what the dean of academic affairs meant, and remembering how he had previously defended her, she decided to give him face.
"Teacher, what do you think is the best way to resolve this privately?"
She was willing to give him face, but she wanted to hear what the dean of academic affairs wanted to do.
When He Huaisheng heard that she agreed to settle things privately, he immediately turned his attention to her.
She still cares about me after all. She was just angry that I didn't stand by her side. She'll be fine after beating me up.
She really does have... the temper of a spoiled young lady.
“Jiang Zhiyao, you must apologize to An Shixia now, and it must be sincere.”
The academic affairs director spoke directly.
Jiang Zhiyao bit her lip and bowed reluctantly in An Shixia's direction.
"An Shixia, I was out of my mind back then and did something to hurt you. Can you forgive me?"
"I accept your apology, but I will not forgive you."
Jiang Zhiyao swayed slightly, her eyes reddening again, and An Shixia frowned.
Are these tears really so sudden? She deserves an Oscar.
"Besides apologizing, you should also provide substantial compensation."
The academic affairs director reminded him from behind.
Sometimes he really didn't want to care about Jiang Zhiyao, but he was the dean of academic affairs, and this was his job.
Jiang Zhiyao really couldn't think of any substantial compensation.
An Shixia wouldn't lack money; but if she were to do things for An Shixia, she definitely wouldn't trust her to do them.
Jiang Zhiyao bit her lip, unsure of what to do.
“I remember I bought you a wooden statue. Give it back to me and I won’t hold it against you.”
An Shixia suddenly spoke up.
They bought that wooden statue together at an antique shop during their freshman year of college. It wasn't expensive, only 100 yuan.
But she vaguely remembered the plot; there was something hidden inside the wood carving, which seemed to be a national treasure, though she couldn't remember exactly what it was.
In the storyline, after Jiang Zhiyao discovered the treasure, she immediately sold it to a foreigner, resulting in the loss of the national treasure.
She suddenly realized that she could never allow national treasures to end up in other countries.
Jiang Zhiyao's eyes lit up. Apart from being a little pretty, that wooden statue didn't serve any other purpose.
She had originally planned to throw it away as soon as she graduated.
Besides, it wasn't her who bought it, so she doesn't feel bad about it.
"Okay! You said it, you can't go back on your word."
An Shixia nodded: "I won't go back on my word. Go back and get it for me now."
That's pretty much the end of the matter. The dean of academic affairs felt that An Shixia had been taken advantage of, so he decided to compensate her.
“You’ve been wronged in this matter. I will continue to report it and apply for compensation for you.”
An Shixia nodded: "Thank you, teacher. We'll head back now."
The academic affairs office finally quieted down. The academic affairs director sighed and was just about to get back to work when he saw the loudspeaker that had been turned on, and his heart nearly jumped out of his chest.
How could anyone make such a huge mess!
He immediately reached out and turned off the loudspeaker. Oh well, the students should have known about this anyway. Jiang Zhiyao hadn't received any real punishment, so it wasn't a big deal.
An Shixia and the others, who had just come out of the office, were unaware of this matter. Jiang Zhiyao was also afraid that An Shixia might suddenly change her mind, so she took her back to the dormitory to get the wood carving.
Only after the wooden carving was handed to An Shixia did she breathe a sigh of relief: "It's agreed that you're not allowed to tell anyone else about this."
"Um."
An Shixia simply hummed in agreement and turned to leave.
Yan Lingyu and He Huaisheng were both waiting downstairs at the girls' dormitory building, but An Shixia simply bypassed He Huaisheng.
He Huaisheng was a little jealous. An Shixia had clearly forgiven Yao Yao because of him, and now she was pretending not to care about him.
Coincidentally, he was still angry. Forgiving Yao Yao wasn't enough. He would wait until she remembered to return the money she had spent at Fengyu Tower before deciding whether to forgive her.
Seeing that He Huaisheng was staring at them, Yan Lingyu defiantly put his arm around An Shixia's shoulder and walked outside with her, without leaving a single glance behind.
He Huai gritted his teeth in anger, but there was nothing he could do about it.
So what if he has a little money? Always wearing that cold face, one day An Shixia will dump him!
Seeing that Yan Lingyu was alone, An Shixia asked, "Where are Xiao Mushen and Wu Yang?"
When Yan Lingyu heard that she was asking about other men, his tone became somewhat sour: "What do you want with them?"
