"Li Qianqian, is this really the case?" Director Guan didn't believe what Yu Zihan said emotionally. His impression of Li Qianqian was not like this.
Li Qianqian raised her head and looked at him with tears in her eyes, pleading in her eyes. Her lips trembled as she tried to say something, but nothing came out. Director Guan understood instantly that this was probably true, just as Yu Zihan had said.
"You actually did such a thing? You instigated people to attack your classmates. Those people are thugs in society. You must know what they can do, right? You really disappoint me." Teacher Guan said with a look of disappointment.
Li Qianqian looked like she was about to die, which made Yu Zihan feel sick.
"Since it wasn't you who did it, you can go back first." Teacher Guan wanted to send the two away first.
"Teacher, isn't your bias too obvious? Aren't the things she did more serious than bullying? You are so strict with us, but you are so indulgent to her?" Yu Zihan had not intended to pursue the matter, but after seeing Director Guan's attitude, she didn't want to endure it anymore.
Isn't it just playing the role of Bai Lianhua? Who can't do that? Her voice was filled with anger and grievance, and tears were welling up in her eyes. "Yu Zihan, don't get excited." Director Guan saw that Yu Zihan was a little emotional and spoke to comfort her, "The teacher is not biased, but this matter is indeed a bit complicated and requires further investigation. You can go back first, and I will give you an explanation."
After hearing what Director Guan said, Yu Zihan knew that Director Guan was determined to be partial to the end, so she said to them, "I know you are in a difficult situation. We might as well tell this matter to the principal and let the principal make the decision."
"No, please, I won't dare to do it again. Yu Zihan, please forgive me this time." Li Qianqian walked to Yu Zihan's side and said with tears streaming down her face.
"I can't possibly forgive you. You clearly knew the backgrounds of those people, yet you instigated them to target me and my sister. You were there when we were surrounded by a dozen thugs. If I hadn't been skilled, what would have happened to us? It would have been an end more painful than death. Our lives might have been ruined from that moment on. Can such a result be offset by a simple apology?"
The most important reason I can't forgive you is that you refuse to repent and have repeatedly persecuted us. You spread rumors and framed us. These are things a student shouldn't do. Do you know what? If you hadn't framed us, and if this hadn't happened, perhaps we could have let you go. But, sorry, our kindness will never awaken your vicious heart, so we won't forgive you.
After she finished speaking, she took her sister and turned to leave the office. Teacher Gao and Director Guan followed closely behind and they came to the principal's office.
Yu Zihan told the principal everything that had happened in front of several people. Seeing Yu Zihan's unyielding attitude and generous demeanor, the principal was naturally fond of this child. However, when he heard her name, he was shocked. This student was the top scorer in their city's high school entrance exam. He had always paid close attention to her grades. He had heard that she had even ranked first in the grade in the first month's monthly exam. It was a dereliction of duty for him, as the principal, to have such a dangerous thing happen to such a student.
He looked at Teacher Gao and then at Director Guan with his deep eyes. The two knew that the principal was taking his anger out on them. Thinking about the fact that they were indeed negligent in this matter, they did not dare to argue.
"Yu Zihan, Pei Shuyan, I understand what you have said. I will investigate immediately and give you a reply after the investigation." Yu Zihan and Pei Shuyan saw that the principal's attitude was obviously sincere. They knew that the principal would not perfunctorily treat them, so they left with Teacher Gao.
"Do you want to confess yourself or let me investigate? If I investigate and find that these things are true, you will be expelled from the school. The school will not keep students with such corrupt characters." After hearing what Yu Zihan said and looking at Li Qianqian's expression and demeanor, the principal knew that the matter was probably true.
Li Qianqian knelt down in front of Director Guan.
"Principal, I confess everything. Please don't fire me." She cried bitterly and explained her thoughts and actions clearly. She saw that the principal's expression was more serious than before, so she decided to play the victim.
So she said, "Principal, please, give me another chance. I promise not to make such a mistake again. I will change. My father has been paralyzed in bed for many years, and my mother does not have a stable job. She sets up a stall in the market to support my schooling. I also have to take care of my father. It is not easy for me to be admitted to such a school. Please don't expel me. I will not make mistakes again. I will study hard. If I am expelled, how can I continue to live like this? Our whole family will die." What she said was sincere and heartfelt.
Director Guan, who was standing nearby, spoke at the right moment: "Principal, what this child said is true. She has been a good child with excellent academic performance from elementary school to junior high school. The reason she did something wrong must be because she was influenced by those people in society. Her family is indeed in financial difficulty. It is not easy for her to do this in such an environment. You..."
The principal glanced at Director Guan and pondered for a long time.
Then he made a decision.
"You must publicly apologize to Yu Zihan and Pei Shuyan in school. I will give you a serious warning and you will be transferred from the elite class to the regular class. You must study hard in the future. You know that your family conditions are not good, so you should focus on studying and don't do anything irrelevant." Li Qianqian heard that the principal would not expel her, so she accepted all these punishments.
She was not truly repentant, but was forced by the current situation. She swore in her heart that if she had the chance one day, she would return the humiliation she suffered today to those two people a thousand times.
"Thank you, Principal. I will study hard." She showed her true remorse.
"Since that's the case, then you can take care of this matter." The principal instructed Director Guan.
Director Guan agreed and left the principal's office, and Li Qianqian followed behind Director Guan.
When she arrived at Director Guan’s office, Li Qianqian knelt down again.
"Thank you Director Guan today. If it weren't for you, I would have been expelled from the school. Li Qianqian will never forget your kindness." This time, Li Qianqian meant it and said what she meant.
"Get up quickly, good girl. You must study hard. Only by studying hard can you change the fate of you and your family." Director Guan helped her up.
After Li Qianqian returned, she was transferred to Class 3 of Grade 1. Teacher Gao informed Yu Zihan and Pei Shuyan of the principal's decision on Li Qianqian. They were both quite satisfied with the outcome.
So Li Qianqian publicly apologized to Yu Zihan and Pei Shuyan during the flag-raising ceremony on Monday. Only then did everyone understand what had been going on for the past few days.
