Chapter 162 Zhao Xinran and her daughter kneel in front of Su Li
Liu Cui'e was choked by Su Li's words and her face turned pale and blue.
She didn't expect that Su Li, who was usually gentle and kind, would be so ruthless at this moment. Every word she said was like a sharp needle, piercing her heart.
"thump!"
Liu Cui'e suddenly knelt before Su Li and kowtowed heavily, her voice filled with pleading, "Li girl, I beg you, please forgive Ran girl! She's still young and naive, and it was that beast Shao Ting'an who seduced her! You're a teacher, how can you watch your students fail to learn? How can you watch your students fall into a deep pool without helping them?"
Zhao Xinran also knelt down and looked at Su Li with tears in her eyes.
"Teacher Su, I was wrong. I really know I was wrong. Please, give me another chance. I can't not go to school..."
Zhao Xinran's voice was tearful, and her pitiful appearance would make anyone who saw her feel a little soft-hearted.
Su Li's heart felt like it was being pressed down by a huge rock, making her feel suffocated and unable to breathe.
She looked at the mother and daughter in front of her and found it extremely ridiculous.
After using the excuse of repaying a favor to gain was exhausted, she began to shamelessly push all the blame onto Shao Ting'an and even tried to blackmail her morally.
In her previous life, Zhao Xinran used this kind of acting skills to lead her to death step by step.
In this life, I will never be soft-hearted towards her again.
Su Li looked at them coldly without saying a word.
She wanted to see how long this mother and daughter pair could continue their performance.
At this time, a figure leaning on a crutch slowly walked into Su Li's sight.
It’s Zhang Xuemei.
Su Li understood instantly that Liu Cui'e had seen Director Zhang and that was why she was playing this self-torture trick.
Zhang Xuemei limped to Su Li's side, looked at Liu Cui'e and her daughter kneeling on the ground, and then looked at Su Li with an indifferent expression.
"Su Li, how can you do this at the school gate?"
Zhang Xuemei's face was a little cold. Even if Zhao Xinran was wrong, he was seduced by Shao Tingan.
A country girl who lived in her house and saw Shao Ting'an every day would not have a good impression of him.
What's more, the other party deliberately seduced you, so you fell into his trap.
Yesterday, Liu Cui'e and Zhao Xinran tearfully recounted Zhao Xinran's "experience."
Zhang Xuemei felt soft-hearted and wanted to report this to the school leaders today, but she didn't expect to see this scene.
"Teacher Zhang, you've come just in time. Please help me persuade Teacher Su. I really know I was wrong. Please, give me another chance..."
Zhao Xinran seemed to have seen a savior and quickly cried to Zhang Xuemei.
Liu Cui'e kowtowed repeatedly: "Teacher Zhang, you are a good person and the most warm-hearted living Bodhisattva. Your words are more effective than those of us country folk. Please, help Xinran. She can't be without education..."
Zhang Xuemei sighed and turned to look at Su Li.
"Teacher Su, I know you feel wronged, but you should forgive others when you can. Xinran is indeed young and ignorant. She was confused for a moment. Please give her a chance."
There was a hint of consolation and helplessness in Zhang Xuemei's voice.
She paused and added.
"Besides, the main responsibility for this matter doesn't lie with this girl. She's also a victim. It's all the fault of that bastard Shao Tingan..."
Zhang Xuemei couldn't help but spit as she spoke.
Obviously, they also deeply detest what Shao Ting'an did.
Su Li looked at Zhang Xuemei with mixed feelings.
She knew that Zhang Xuemei meant well.
However, some things cannot be solved by simply saying "forgive others when you can".
If forgiveness can bring about true repentance, then she is willing to do so.
But will Zhao Xinran and her daughter really repent?
They were just changing with the wind. If they didn't know that Shao Baoguo was in trouble and Shao Tingan couldn't be relied upon, would they put all the blame on Shao Tingan alone?
Their pitiful appearance now is just an attempt to take advantage of her kindness to achieve their own goals.
Once they succeed, who knows what will happen next, and it’s hard to say whether they will turn around and bite her.
She had experienced this kind of thing once and didn't want to experience it again.
At this time, quite a few people had gathered at the school gate.
Murmurs began to rise from the crowd, growing louder and louder until they converged into a wave of accusations.
"This teacher is too cruel. The mother and daughter have already suffered such a terrible fate, and he can't just forgive them once?" The auntie selling tofu pudding nearby frowned and said with dissatisfaction on her face.
"That's right. No matter what, the parents have begged so much, how can you be so heartless?" An old man also echoed, looking at the mother and daughter kneeling on the ground with sympathy on his face.
"I read the newspaper. Teacher Su is in a very bad situation. He let the wolf into his own house."
"But she said it was her husband who seduced her, so she's also a victim in this matter."
Two female students were also whispering nearby.
Seeing more and more people coming, Su Li took a deep breath and spoke slowly.
"Teacher Zhang, you don't have to say anything. I can't agree to this."
Su Li's voice was soft but firm.
Zhang Xuemei was stunned.
She didn't expect Su Li to refuse so bluntly.
"Su Li, you...why are you doing this? Giving others a chance is also giving yourself a chance."
Zhang Xuemei wanted to persuade her again.
Su Li shook her head.
"Teacher Zhang, some injuries cannot be repaired, and some mistakes cannot be forgiven."
Su Li's eyes became extremely cold.
"I've given Zhao Xinran chances, more than once, but what about her? How did she repay me?"
"She stole my husband, destroyed my family, and even...even attacked me!"
Su Li's voice trembled slightly.
Those painful memories flooded into her heart like a tide, almost suffocating her.
"Teacher Zhang, if it were you, would you forgive someone who wanted to kill you?"
Su Li's eyes were fixed on Zhang Xuemei.
Zhang Xuemei was shocked by Su Li's eyes.
She opened her mouth, but no words came out.
The people watching nearby also shut up instantly.
"Don't advise others to be good unless you have experienced their suffering." The aunt selling tofu pudding shook her head and left.
Zhang Xuemei had been with Zhao Xinran for about ten days and was deceived by her appearance. She couldn't bear to see Zhao Xinran and her daughter kneeling on the ground.
"Su Li, I know you're angry, but it was all Shao Ting'an's fault. This girl didn't hurt you, and she already knows she was wrong. Can't you give her another chance?"
Zhang Xuemei's voice became somewhat weak.
Su Li smiled bitterly.
"Teacher Zhang, please stop trying to persuade me. I won't forgive her, and I won't speak up for her. This time, I won't be soft-hearted. How the school decides to deal with her is their business."
Su Li's eyes were firm and resolute. She pushed her bicycle away without even glancing at the mother and daughter kneeling on the ground.
Zhang Xuemei looked at Su Li and sighed in her heart.
She knew that Su Li was determined.
Zhang Xuemei helped the mother and daughter who were kneeling on the ground up and led them to the school.
