When He Qingfeng asked her a question, Yuan Mengge nodded and said, "That's right, teacher. I didn't leave that family for no reason. I can only live better without them. If I stayed in that family, I might become a murderer one day."
He Qingfeng looked at her, then at the Hu siblings, and asked, "Do you know anything about her family?"
Brother Hu looked at He Qingfeng and said, "Her family...it was a den of bandits. Anyway, I think it's good that she got out. Teacher, you shouldn't interfere in this matter. If she had continued to stay in that house, things would have gotten much worse."
Let her decide her own affairs. It's alright; there's nothing she can't decide, we can all help her.
Hu Yuanyuan then said, "Yes, teacher, please don't get involved in this. She finally managed to get her household registration back, and if you take it back, she'll be furious. And don't go to her parents either; they won't appreciate your help."
Hearing their words, He Qingfeng pondered for a moment, then looked at Yuan Mengge and asked, "Are you really sure?"
Yuan Mengge nodded: "Mm."
He Qingfeng sighed, then looked at Hu Yuanyuan and her brother and said, "Let's leave Yuan Pingping's money matter for now. We'll let you know the outcome later."
That means the two of you can go back now.
The Hu siblings looked at Yuan Mengge, and seeing that she nodded, they didn't linger any longer.
Yuan Mengge followed He Qingfeng back to the classroom. He Qingfeng stood on the podium and said to everyone, "Those are their godparents, and the money was given to them legitimately. If you don't know, don't talk nonsense. You're wrong, you know?"
Shen Jiayi and the other two looked instantly pale after hearing what he said.
“You three have two choices now. One, apologize to Yuan Pingping now and write a 1,000-word self-criticism. Two, the school will give you a demerit, which will be recorded in your files,” He Qingfeng said to Shen Jiayi and the other two.
Then he added, "Do you know the consequences of getting a demerit? You'll have to go to high school or vocational school, and when you go out to find a job, no one will want you. You can choose for yourselves: apologize or get a demerit."
Shen Jiayi and Wu Ping both gritted their teeth and remained silent, their faces showing that even in death, their mouths would still be stubborn.
Sun Jinhua, however, spoke with a cold gaze: "I choose one."
She stood up, walked to Yuan Mengge's desk, looked at her, and said with her head down, "I'm sorry..."
Yuan Mengge: "I can't hear you, speak louder."
Sun Jinhua originally thought that she would be fine as long as she apologized, but she didn't expect Yuan Mengge to say such a thing. This was obviously an insult to her, which made her so angry that she clenched her teeth.
She clenched her fists, glared at Yuan Mengge, took a deep breath, controlled her emotions, and then gritted her teeth to squeeze out three words: "I'm sorry!"
Yuan Mengge looked at her as she tried to suppress the look in her eyes that seemed to want to bite her as she apologized, and then nodded: "Okay, that's fine."
Upon hearing this, Sun Jinhua immediately turned around, quickly walked back to her seat, and stared at Yuan Mengge with a gloomy gaze.
Seeing that she had already apologized, Wu Ping couldn't help but look at Shen Jiayi, and hesitated for a moment.
Shen Jiayi snorted coldly: "Hmph! I'm not apologizing to her! So be it!"
Yuan Mengge glanced at her indifferently and then looked away.
It's clear that Sun Jinhua is intelligent, while Shen Jiayi is not.
Apologizing to her now and writing a self-criticism may cause social repercussions, but it won't affect my future life.
So Sun Jinhua swallowed her embarrassment and apologized to her through gritted teeth.
Shen Jiayi, however, chose to receive a demerit, completely unaware of its importance.
Everyone else in the class looked at them. After hearing what the homeroom teacher said, they all knew that Yuan Mengge's side had won the dispute.
Having been classmates for over two years, we naturally got to know each other as well.
They all disliked Yuan Pingping, but they also disliked Shen Jiayi and the other two.
The way these three acted like pampered princesses was something everyone had been complaining about for three years, so how could they not have noticed?
Moreover, the three of them made no attempt to conceal their true intentions.
However, they had always seen Yuan Pingping suffer setbacks at their hands, but today was the first time they had seen them suffer setbacks at Yuan Pingping's hands.
And it happened twice in a row.
Yuan Mengge looked at her classmate who refused to admit her mistake and said to her, "Fine, then I'll print out flyers and distribute what you two did."
Upon hearing this, Wu Ping immediately stood up and said nervously, "I...I apologize! I apologize to you!"
She immediately ran over, stood in front of her, bowed her head, and said, "I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm sorry! Is that alright?"
Yuan Mengge nodded and said, "Write a self-criticism."
Upon hearing that she had to write a self-criticism, Wu Ping hesitated and looked at her, asking, "I'll write the self-criticism... I'll write it. But... could you please not have it read aloud at the colonel's meeting? That would be too embarrassing..."
Yuan Mengge shook her head: "No, you have to go up and read it, otherwise you won't learn your lesson."
Wu Ping wanted to say something, but He Qingfeng called out to her, "Alright, Wu Ping, go back and sit down."
And so, the second class ended.
Then it was break time again, and everyone started passing messages again.
Everyone else in the class stared at Yuan Mengge, feeling as if she had become a completely different person.
She is a completely different person today than she was before.
Wei Jingting suddenly walked over and sat down at the table in front of Yuan Mengge, looking at her and saying, "Now that you have money, you probably won't use our things anymore, right?"
Yuan Mengge looked at her, trying to figure out the meaning behind her words.
She thought for a moment, took out a ten-yuan note, placed it on the table and handed it to her, saying, "Is this enough to return the things I took from you before?"
Wei Jingting glanced at her money, raised an eyebrow, and said, "I don't want your money. Consider the things you took from me before as a gift from me. You don't need to pay them back."
Yuan Mengge tilted her head and looked at her: "What you're saying means there are other conditions, right?"
Wei Jingting nodded and said, "Let's talk about it when we get back to the dorm at noon."
Su Yue and Cao Dan both came over, looking at her with curiosity and gossiping, "What does your godfather's family do? How come they give you so much money?"
Why did you leave your home? What happened to your home?
"Yeah, you really cut ties with your family?"
Their gossipy curiosity has made them thick-skinned.
Yuan Mengge: "I don't know what they do, but I have helped their family and done them a great favor, which is why they took me in as their goddaughter. The money was also given to me voluntarily."
