Chapter 361 Can’t Stay
As Lao Yue was yelling, he saw Zhou Zhuo coming towards them. Lao Yue didn't bother to get angry with Lao Zheng, and hurriedly stopped to ask Zhou Zhuo what he wanted.
Zhou Zhuo recounted what happened last night. Old Zheng saw him open his mouth but couldn't hear him speak. Then he remembered that there was cotton stuffed in his ears and hurriedly took it out.
After listening to Zhou Zhuo's complaint, the two teachers felt very angry. They stopped running and took Zhou Zhuo to find Principal Jie. The old man's hometown was Nanhe County, more than 100 kilometers away from Jinning, so he naturally lived in the school.
When they arrived at the office, the old man was drinking corn porridge from his rice bowl with pickles. When he saw the two men, he thought they were arguing about students again. He was about to punish each of them with a hundred lashes when he heard Lao Yue speak.
"Principal Xie, a horrific incident happened to a classmate of ours last night. I'm here to ask you how to handle this matter."
It turned out that there was no quarrel. The old man relaxed his guard, took a mouthful of porridge and waved his hand: "You say..."
Yue Lining recounted the incident vividly. As expected of a Chinese teacher, his expression was vivid, as if he had seen it with his own eyes.
The more the old man listened, the more he felt something was amiss. At the end, he slammed his rice bowl on the table. "This is outrageous! Su Yun, relying on her father being in charge of education, is so arrogant! Zhou Zhuo is the hope of our school. If he gets hurt, I won't forgive him!"
Then he gently said to Zhou Zhuo, "Mr. Zhou, go back first. The school will handle this matter."
After hearing this, Zhou Zhuo thanked the old man and turned back to the classroom.
As soon as Zhou Zhuo left, the old man's face changed and he scolded Lao Yue, saying that he had lax discipline and couldn't even manage a few students. It was already a time, and he still let the students do whatever they wanted and go to the restaurant to eat at night. He was also responsible for this matter!
Yue Lining was scolded until his face turned red and he lowered his head and had nothing to say.
Zheng Zhiguo felt that Lao Yue was quite pitiful. He thought that although Lao Yue was a bit mean at ordinary times, he would occasionally help him with cooking or something. In short, he was a pretty good person.
Thinking of this, he spoke up for Old Yue: "Principal Xie, this can't all be blamed on Old Yue. Su Yun has always had privileges at school thanks to her father's connections, and everyone has turned a blind eye. Student Zhou was also given special permission by you to attend school part-time due to health reasons..."
The old man interrupted Zheng Zhiguo rudely: "So it's my fault?"
"I dare not. I just want to say that since the incident has already happened, finding the person responsible is secondary. The first thing to do is to solve the problem."
When Lao Yue saw that Zheng Zhiguo actually spoke up for him, he felt that the sun had risen from the west. Shouldn't he take this opportunity to kick him hard a few times?
The old man snorted coldly and stroked his non-existent beard. "Do I need you to remind me? I've already been thinking of a solution."
"The principal is wise." Zheng Zhiguo complimented hurriedly.
The old man looked at Yue Lining and said, "Old Yue, this happened in your class. Tell me your opinion first."
Yue Lining thought for a moment and replied, "Su Yun has repeatedly harassed Zhou, causing him great distress and having an extremely negative impact on the school. I suggest that she take a leave of absence."
The old man looked at Zheng Zhiguo again: "What do you mean?"
Zheng Zhiguo: "Old Yue and I agree. This kind of student is like a piece of rotten meat that spoils the whole pot of porridge. We can't keep him."
