As soon as the bell rang, Ye Qingyan dragged Zhen Tian to Mi Le's side.
Grabbing Mi Le by the collar and pulling her close, Ye Qingyan glared fiercely at Mi Le: "Did you do all this?"
"Ye Qingyan, what are you doing?" Liu Zhen's sharp voice came from the podium, accompanied by hurried footsteps.
"Who do you think you are, bullying Mile?" Liu Zhen shielded Mile behind her, saying, "Do you have no manners at all? Mile is not someone you can bully. Not only is she bad at studying, but she also has bad character. What kind of parents raised her? You're a piece of trash who was born of a mother but not raised by one."
"Say that again!" Ye Qingyan released Mi Le and stared directly at the teacher. Liu Zhen trembled at her fierce gaze.
"Teacher, you've gone too far," Zhen Tian stepped forward. "You need to apologize to Ye Qingyan."
"Apologize? Ha!" Liu Zhen glanced at Zhen Tian with disdain: "Did I say something wrong? You two will be scum in society, maybe even potential violent elements, a disgrace to the school. You might as well quit school, it's no use studying there anyway."
Ye Qingyan clenched her fist, as if she was about to swing it at any moment.
Zhen Tian trembled with anger, tears welling in her eyes, yet she persisted in arguing, "What did we do to deserve such humiliation from you...?"
Ye Qingyan suddenly smiled, and took a deep breath: "I understand now!"
Her tightly clenched hands relaxed as she shielded Zhen Tian behind her: "Teacher Liu Zhen is protecting Mi Le so much, even at the cost of insulting other students. I'm afraid there might be some kind of illegal deal involved."
"This is defamation, I can sue you."
"Go ahead and sue, the bigger the fuss, the better, so that I can show others what kind of person our class's lovely math teacher really is."
Ye Qingyan gripped Zhen Tian's hand tightly: "Come on, Tian Tian, let's not talk to those who bully others."
"How dare you speak like that?" Liu Zhen tried to grab Ye Qingyan's arm, but instead grabbed Zhen Tian and was about to slap her.
The students around him exclaimed in surprise.
Miler didn't expect it to escalate so much, but she wasn't afraid. What did it have to do with her from beginning to end?
"Bang!" A loud sound rang out, and the students were all stunned.
Shao Junli stood in front of the two of them, and the slap landed on his body. Because of the height difference, the slap landed on his neck.
A red handprint immediately appeared on his neck.
Shao Junli gasped, suddenly relieved that the slap had landed on two girls. He couldn't have endured that kind of force.
"Shao Junli!" Zhen Tian called out his name in a panic, tears that she had been holding back just now falling down her cheeks: "Are you alright?"
Ye Qingyan didn't expect Liu Zhen to dare to make a move.
"Are you crazy?" Ye Qingyan examined Shao Junli's neck. Some parts were scratched by Liu Zhen's long fingernails and were still bleeding. It looked rather shocking.
Mi Le, who had been calm just moments before, couldn't sit still when she saw that it was Shao Junli who was injured.
"Are you alright?" She tried to help Shao Junli up, but he shook her off.
Miler's gaze dimmed.
"Sweetie!" Lu Lin, who was sent to check on Zhen Tian in a moment of crisis, rushed in upon seeing this scene. Unexpectedly, someone in the class was even faster than him and blocked the attack for Zhen Tian.
He received a call from Ji Yuzhi last night.
Ji Yuzhi didn't say much on the phone, just told him to go and see if Zhen Tian was happy at school, because it seemed that Zhen Tian had a little secret with him, so it would be no use for him to go and see her in person.
Lu Lin was so smug last night, but when he saw it today, his heart almost stopped.
Upon seeing the evidence, Liu Zhen rushed forward, clinging to Lu Lin's arm and preventing him from getting close to Zhen Tian.
"Let's see how you try to deny it now. Did I say you were messing around with guys? You're not that old, but you're quite promiscuous, getting all entangled with several guys. Shameless."
Liu Zhen grabbed Lu Lin tightly: "Look, all of you, this is the evidence!"
"Are you fucking sick?" Lu Lin, being a teenager who exercised regularly, used the force with which he shook off Liu Zhen, causing Liu Zhen to stumble and hit his lower back on the desk.
"Brother." Zhen Tian hid in Lu Lin's arms and cried. From childhood to adulthood, who had ever made Zhen Tian suffer so much?
"Don't cry, don't cry, I'm here. I'll stand up for you."
"Pulling and tugging in front of the teacher, have you no shame?" Liu Zhen hysterically shoved Zhen Tian.
"If you dare to move again, believe me, I'll break your hands." Lu Lin stepped aside and shielded Zhen Tian in his arms, his gaze sharp as he looked at Liu Zhen.
"Teacher, they called him 'little brother,' can't you hear that?" The other boys in the class couldn't help but defend Zhen Tian, their eyes filled with contempt for Liu Zhen.
"What kind of look is that?" Liu Zhen retorted, turning her anger towards the boy who had spoken.
"What kind of look is that? It's the kind of look that says they won't let this go!" Lu Lin sneered, made several phone calls in a row, and then said to the other students watching the commotion, "Go and find the principal. Tell him something's happened. Make it sound as serious as possible. Can't you act?"
"Yes, yes, don't worry, we're coming right away." Several boys, not afraid of making things worse, ran out.
"What's going on?" The next class was about to start, and the homeroom teacher, Yang Tian, pushed up his glasses and walked in, only to find the classroom in complete chaos.
Some girls formed a small group and stood directly by Yang Tian's side, explaining the whole story clearly.
Yang Tian's expression changed instantly. He looked at Liu Zhen with a mixture of confusion and reproach in his eyes.
Liu Zhen started to panic.
The principal arrived quickly, panting as he entered the classroom. He was probably frightened by the boys' description, and his face was a little pale.
Ji Yuzhi and Lu Yiran arrived even faster.
Lu Lin was still gently coaxing Zhen Tian, his fingers softly wiping away her tears.
Ye Qingyan coldly watched Liu Zhen and Mi Le, the bigger the commotion, the better.
Shao Junli stood to the side, covering his neck, not saying a word, but his position clearly showed his attitude.
"Sweet!"
"Little sister!"
Upon hearing the familiar voice, Zhen Tian pouted, and the tears she had managed to suppress welled up again.
"Only one..."
Looking at the most familiar and trusted figure, her tearful eyes made Ji Yuzhi's heart race.
He pushed through the crowd and strode in, then hugged Zhen Tian: "Are you hurt?"
"No!" Zhen Tian shook her head.
Seeing that he had lost his little sister's embrace so quickly, Lu Lin clicked his tongue, but he knew it wasn't the time to be jealous.
"Why are Lu and Ji here?" The principal had a bad feeling.
"I heard my little sister was bullied, so I came to see who was so blind." Lu Yiran pushed up his gold-rimmed glasses, a faint smile playing on his lips, which stunned the girls in the class.
"Your little sister?"
Looking at the girl being held in Ji Yuzhi's arms, the principal felt like he was about to have a heart attack.
