Chapter 34 Then Call the Police
Seeing that she was still so calm, as if nothing had happened, before anyone else could speak, Li's mother was about to rush over to vent her anger for her son.
Fortunately, Director Sun, who was standing by, was quick to intervene and said, "Mrs. Li, please calm down. Let's first understand the situation and we will definitely handle this matter properly!"
"Isn't what I said clear enough? What else do you need to know?" Mother Li's eyes were bloodshot, and her excited finger trembled as she pointed at Chen Ci: "She seduced my son. She promised me to break up, but she kept pestering me behind my back. Now my son is injured and hospitalized!"
"If your school dares to protect or shield a student like this, I will never let it go!"
Then he looked at the principal and said, "Principal Wang, you've read the medical report. Tell me, what girl could do such a thing? It's ridiculous, isn't it? Is she shameless?"
Principal Wang sighed upon seeing this, and first glanced at Shen Ci unhappily, as if blaming her for offending Mrs. Li and causing trouble for the school.
But as the principal, since the matter has come to him, he still has to deal with it.
"Mrs. Li, please don't get too excited. First of all, regarding the relationship between Shen Ci and Li Xiao, I believe that as the school, we have no right to interfere. Freedom of relationship is their basic right as adults. Even if you stand up and object, you can't pin the "crime" on Shen Ci. Being in love is not a crime, and words like "seduction" should not be easily attributed to a girl."
"Then my son is injured..."
Principal Wang raised his hand, signaling Li's mother not to worry, and then continued: "If classmate Li Xiao was really injured by classmate Shen Ci and was admitted to the hospital, then we will definitely deal with this matter, and we will deal with it seriously!"
When Li's mother heard what Principal Wang said, she immediately felt emboldened. She took a step back, straightened her clothes, and said proudly, "She can't deny it. I found the surveillance footage of the incident."
Principal Wang looked at Chen Ci and asked, "Student Chen Ci, does Li Xiao's injury and hospitalization have anything to do with you?"
I thought Shen Ci would be scared or try to defend herself, but I didn't expect her to nod and admit it expressionlessly: "Yes, it's because of me!"
"Principal Wang, look at her attitude!" Li's mother got angry again when she saw this.
"Mrs. Li, please don't interrupt. Let Principal Wang ask for the details." Director Sun said helplessly.
Seeing Chen Ci admit it so readily, Principal Wang's face darkened: "Since you admit it, the school will definitely deal with this matter seriously."
"Principal, this incident happened outside the school. Does the school have the right to interfere?" Shen Ci asked softly.
Principal Wang took a deep breath and said, "You kid, the school is stepping in to deal with you because they want to give an explanation to Li Xiao and his parents. Why are you bringing up on-campus and off-campus incidents now? If we really want to treat this as an off-campus incident, do you want them to call the police?"
When she heard the words "call the police", Shen Ci didn't look frightened, but Li's mother's eyes lit up.
Yes, why didn’t she think of calling the police?
This is intentional injury!
"If you don't fire her, I will call the police!" Li's mother suddenly yelled, her tone full of threats.
Principal Wang then realized that he seemed to have said something wrong. How could this have made things even more complicated? He quickly said, "Mrs. Li, our school understands your feelings. However, although Chen Ci has made mistakes, expelling her directly would seem too cruel. As an elder, could you please give Chen Ci a chance?"
"Don't worry, our school will record a serious warning for her and ask her to visit Li Xiao in the hospital and apologize to him in person!"
Unexpectedly, this last sentence seemed to touch a switch in Li's mother, and she screamed, "No! I can't let my son see her again!"
"Then I'll apologize to you, is that okay with you?" Principal Wang asked again.
"I don't need her to apologize, I want you to fire her! Now, whenever I think about my son studying in the same school, department, or even class with her, I can't eat." Li's mother was determined. She turned her head and looked at Shen Ci fiercely and said, "Anyway, if you don't fire her, I will call the police to arrest her!"
I thought that such a threat without leaving any way out would scare Shen Ci, but Shen Ci did not show any reaction from beginning to end. She just stood there straight, without even looking at Li's mother, let alone showing any apology for doing something wrong.
It was not until this moment that she turned her head to Li's mother behind Director Sun, and then suddenly smiled.
Her smile even contained a slight sneer in her throat, which stunned everyone present.
Li Jianguo was already sweating profusely due to the other party's aggressive attitude and the fact that Shen Ci was definitely going to be punished severely. Shen Ci's smile frightened him silly.
“Ahem… ahem…”
Li Jianguo quickly pretended to clear his throat, wanting everyone to think that the sound just now came from him.
But Chen Ci's smile just now couldn't be concealed, and it directly stimulated Li's mother's emotions and broke down again: "Principal Wang, look at her, she actually has the nerve to smile. Your school doesn't even want to expel a student who doesn't take you and the school seriously?"
"You're not going to fire me, right? Then I'll call the police right away!"
As Li's mother was about to take out her cell phone, Director Sun quickly stepped forward to stop her and said, "Mrs. Li, please don't be so anxious. We are not..."
"Director Sun, don't stop him, let her call the police." Chen Ci watched the "mother monkey show" for a long time, and finally spoke calmly at this moment.
As he spoke, he even took out his cell phone and said to Li's mother, "How about I help you report it? I just called the police a few days ago because of a property dispute. The nearest police station is very close to the school."
Her unexpected words and actions once again confused everyone present.
Seeing this, Principal Wang said sternly, "Student Chen Ci, stop making a fuss. You also admitted that this matter was related to you, so you deserve to be punished and apologize."
Director Sun also said anxiously: "Why are you so stubborn, girl? How dare you add fuel to the fire at this time? Apologize immediately!"
Only Li Jianguo, who had been Shen Ci's counselor for a year, knew her better than anyone else. She would never hurt others for no reason.
Seeing her fearless face at this time, she was not even afraid of calling the police. There must be a reason and some hidden story behind it.
He hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Chen Ci, Li Xiao's injury was the result of this incident. Since you are here, why don't you explain the cause and process of the incident in detail? This way we can understand it more clearly!"
Chen Ci nodded gently and said, "To put it simply, Li Xiao forcibly hugged me without my permission. According to Article 237 of the Criminal Law, the act of using force to insult a woman against her will constitutes the crime of 'molestation'!"
Please give me a monthly ticket.
