It is so difficult to be a principal nowadays. No wonder this position keeps changing people!
Li Meng and Zhang Ting's eyes widened in disbelief. Nothing had been found yet, not even the teapot had been taken for testing, yet how could they be treated as prisoners? Not only were they not allowed to continue their training, but they were also being isolated for questioning?
They are well-known socialites in Lanxuan City. After such an experience, even if the matter is resolved and clarified in the future, they can forget about having a good reputation.
Being taken away by the school police this time is no less than being locked up as an ordinary girl!
"Teacher, we didn't poison Li Mu, and Li Mu never drank the water in my kettle. You can't just believe Lan Ziye's one-sided words and take us away. This will bring shame to our family!" Li Meng panicked and said hurriedly.
"Yes! Teacher, you can't do this to us without any evidence!" Zhang Ting also quickly agreed.
The Dean of Studies was in a dilemma. Although he couldn't afford to offend Mr. Chu and Miss Lan, which student in this academy could he afford to offend?
If he were to bring the two young ladies from the Li and Zhang families back to school without any reason and isolate them for questioning, how would he explain this to the Li and Zhang families?
Woo woo woo~~, it’s so hard to be a principal. Is it too late for him to resign now?
The Dean of Studies considered it for a moment, and was just about to ask Chu Xixuan for a favor, asking if they could wait until the practical training was over, or until poison was found in the teapot, so that there was concrete evidence, when another clear and soft voice sounded behind him.
"Brother Chu, isn't it too unfair to wrongly accuse two girls without any evidence?"
Jin Ruoxi walked slowly to Chu Xixuan, looking at him with eager eyes. Of course, because of the veil, Chu Xixuan couldn't see Jin Ruoxi's eyes.
Chu Xixuan frowned and was about to speak when Jin Ruoxi spoke again, "Brother Chu, don't you find it strange? Why is that little character Li Mu in Lan Ziye's group, and why is he alone with Lan Ziye in the middle of the night? Brother Chu, don't you want to know the truth?"
After hearing this, Lan Xiaoqi became angry. He stepped forward and said rudely, "What do you mean? What do you mean by being alone together in the middle of the night?" Isn't this destroying their Xiaoye's reputation?
"Isn't it? Li Mu has no fighting ability at all, so why did Lan Ziye recruit Li Mu into his team? It's too unreasonable!" The more anxious Lan Xiaoqi became, the more proud Jin Ruoxi became, and she continued.
At the same time, her eyes fell on Lan Ziye. She really wanted to see how anxious Lan Ziye looked.
Lan Ziye, however, looked indifferent and calm.
She raised her chin, pointed at Zhang Ting and Li Meng, and said, "Don't they have any fighting power at all? Didn't I still include them in my team? It's just to make up the numbers. Who said we need ten people for the second round?"
Jin Ruoxi chuckled: "There are so many people who want to join your Lan Ziye team, why Li Mu?" She paused and said, "Li Mu and I are acquainted. Although Li Mu is a little timid, that little face is really good-looking, hehe... Maybe I'm thinking wrongly!" After saying that, she turned to look at Chu Xixuan, and sure enough, she saw that Chu Xixuan pursed his lips tightly, and his face was dark.
Lan Ziye touched his nose. Jin Ruoxi didn't have any other skills, but she was very good at making up stories.
