Chapter 92 Huang Ying apologizes
After coming out of the library, Jiang Ruoxi was still in a heavy mood. This unprovoked turmoil made her exhausted, but she knew very well that only a thorough resolution could get her life back on track. Without any delay, she went straight to the office of counselor Zhou Menghua.
The office door was half open. Jiang Ruoxi knocked lightly a few times, and after getting a response, she pushed the door open and walked in. Zhou Menghua was busy sitting at his desk. When he saw Jiang Ruoxi come in, he put down the documents in his hand and smiled with concern: "Jiang Ruoxi, what do you want to talk to me about?"
Jiang Ruoxi took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down, and said clearly: "Counselor Zhou, I came here today to tell you about the rumors about me that are circulating on campus. Recently, my classmates have been talking about my lifestyle and flirting with men outside the school!"
She paused, a trace of helplessness flashed in her eyes, "But this is completely nonsense, someone is maliciously spreading rumors. The fact is that I am indeed married and have three children, and my husband and I love each other very much. My husband and I are a military marriage, which is protected by law!"
Zhou Menghua frowned slightly, his expression becoming serious: "How could such a thing happen? This is outrageous! Don't be anxious, tell me slowly, what exactly is going on?"
"I started investigating when I heard the rumor. I have found out that it was Huang Ying who spread the rumor. This rumor has caused great mental damage to me, and it has also hurt my husband and children!" Jiang Ruoxi continued, "Today I confronted her face to face, and she admitted in front of everyone that she was the one who fabricated and spread the rumor. She also promised to clarify the facts in front of all the teachers and students in the school and apologize to me!"
After hearing this, Zhou Menghua nodded heavily and said, "Well done, classmate Jiang. This kind of malicious rumor-mongering behavior must not be tolerated and must be dealt with seriously to clear your name!"
Her eyes revealed determination. "The school will definitely take this matter seriously. Even if Huang Ying apologizes publicly, the school will punish her accordingly according to the rules and regulations to serve as a warning to others and prevent similar things from happening again!"
Jiang Ruoxi looked at Zhou Menghua gratefully: "Thank you, instructor. I am really worried that these rumors will have a greater impact on my life and studies, and I am also afraid that it will affect my family. I can't let my husband defend the country at the front and worry about his family at the back!"
"Don't worry, the school will fully support you. Don't just say you're a military dependent. Even if you're not, you can't spread such false rumors. This time, Huang Ying will do a deep self-examination in front of all the teachers and students to warn all the teachers and students in the school. I will report this matter to the principal later!"
Zhou Menghua comforted him, "Next, you just need to cooperate with the school to do the follow-up work. If you have any questions or troubles during this period, you can always come to me!"
After leaving the counselor's office, Jiang Ruoxi felt relieved. The sunshine shines on the paths in the campus, making it warm and cozy. She strolled around the campus, looking at the familiar scenery around her, secretly hoping that Huang Ying would fulfill her promise and put an end to this farce.
A few days later, the school organized a meeting for all teachers and students. Huang Ying stood on the podium, her face pale and her voice trembling as she publicly apologized to Jiang Ruoxi, admitting and reviewing her wrong behavior and clarifying the facts. The students in the audience cast strange looks at her. Some felt happy for Jiang Ruoxi, while others condemned Huang Ying's behavior.
In view of Huang Ying's malicious rumor-mongering about military families, which seriously violated campus discipline and ethical norms, and in order to maintain the school's style and discipline, and safeguard campus order and the legitimate rights and interests of military families, the school has decided to criticize Huang Ying through an internal school announcement and give her a warning. I hope that all students can take this as a warning, consciously abide by laws and regulations and campus rules and regulations, and jointly create a clean and healthy campus environment.
Jiang Ruoxi stood in the audience, looking at Huang Ying on the stage, feeling mixed emotions. Although this storm will soon pass, the traces it left behind are difficult to erase easily.
However, she also understands that life must go on, and she must move forward bravely with the love and support of her family and no longer be troubled by these groundless rumors.
Although Huang Ying's matter was over, Jiang Ruoxi couldn't help but feel worried when she had some free time. She thought over and over again that she and Huang Ying had no grudges in the past or present, and had no conflicts of interest at all. She really couldn't understand why the other party would spread rumors and discredit her.
After much thought, Jiang Ruoxi decided to call Lu Tingxiao and ask him to help analyze the situation.
Jiang Ruoxi called Lu Tingxiao's school. The operator politely asked her to call back in ten minutes.
As soon as ten minutes were up, Jiang Ruoxi hurriedly dialed the phone again. Soon, Lu Tingxiao's familiar and concerned voice came from the receiver: "Wife, you are looking for me so urgently, has something happened?"
Jiang Ruoxi let out a long sigh, calmed herself down, and told Lu Tingxiao all about how Huang Ying saw him taking the kids to the park with her on his day off, and how she had spread rumors about him having affairs, and how they had no interactions or conflicts of interest.
After listening to this, Lu Tingxiao was silent for a moment, then analyzed in a calm tone, "Wife, think about it, is it possible that someone behind the scenes instructed her to do this? During the time you were in school, who did you have a quarrel with?"
Jiang Ruoxi recalled carefully and said, "If we talk about conflicts, it's between Zhao Miaomiao and Li Ling in our class. On the first day of school, during the political economy class, Professor Yang asked me a question, and Zhao Miaomiao was making sarcastic remarks next to me. Later, during the public class, she was still like this, and I couldn't help but say a few words to her. But for such a small matter, she wouldn't find someone to spread rumors about me, right?"
"Wife, you are too innocent and kind!" Lu Tingxiao explained patiently, "This may be a trivial matter in your eyes, but in her heart, it may be a huge matter. From what you said, is she not as pretty as you, and her knowledge is not as rich as yours?"
Jiang Ruoxi thought about it seriously for a while, and replied: "It seems to be true. Every time I answer the professor's questions, she likes to mock me!"
"That's right. She must feel that you stole her limelight. She is upset and jealous of you!" Lu Tingxiao paused and continued, "Don't worry about it. I will find someone to investigate it thoroughly. Spreading rumors about military families is no small matter. We can't let it go so easily. We must deal with it properly!"
After hanging up the phone, Lu Tingxiao looked solemn and strode straight to the school's political department. When he met the comrade in charge, he reported the whole story in detail and emphasized the seriousness of the matter in an earnest manner.
Comrades from the Political Department immediately expressed their high attention to the matter, quickly set up an investigation team and launched a comprehensive investigation.
The investigation team first started with Huang Ying and conducted in-depth questioning and investigation on her. At first, Huang Ying still had hope and tried to conceal the person behind the scenes, but under the evidence presented by the investigators and the strong psychological offensive, her psychological defenses finally collapsed. She confessed that it was Zhao Miaomiao who gave her a sum of money and asked her to fabricate rumors to discredit Jiang Ruoxi, and also promised that as long as the matter was done, there would be a generous reward later.
After obtaining this key clue, the investigation team immediately launched an investigation into Zhao Miaomiao. When faced with the investigators' questions, Zhao Miaomiao initially denied it, but as evidence piled up before her, she could no longer argue and had to admit that she had done such a stupid thing out of jealousy of Jiang Ruoxi.
After the investigation was completed, the Political Department fed back the results to Lu Tingxiao. After learning the truth, Lu Tingxiao solemnly stated that the rumormongers must be punished accordingly in order to safeguard the legitimate rights and dignity of military families.
Subsequently, the school imposed severe punishments on Zhao Miaomiao and Huang Ying in accordance with relevant regulations. Zhao Miaomiao was not only criticized and given a demerit by the school, but was also required to publicly apologize to Jiang Ruoxi and clarify the facts at the school assembly; because Huang Ying had already made a self-examination and clarified and apologized at the school-wide assembly of teachers and students, and the school also gave her a school-wide criticism and warning, she was not dealt with separately.
After Jiang Ruoxi learned the truth of the matter and the outcome of the incident, she finally felt relieved. She was filled with emotion and cherished her life with Lu Tingxiao even more.
After this incident, the relationship between Lu Tingxiao and Jiang Ruoxi became even deeper. They experienced the ups and downs together and worked together to protect each other's love and family.
After the dust settled on the rumor-mongering by Zhao Miaomiao and Huang Ying, the school attached great importance to the problems exposed by the incident and regarded it as an important opportunity to strengthen the construction of campus atmosphere.
The school has organized many special education activities. From theme class meetings to school-wide assemblies, school leaders and teachers have repeatedly emphasized the disciplinary requirements that strictly prohibit the spread of false rumors. They have stated in stern terms that any behavior of wantonly spreading false information in the school will be dealt with seriously and will not be tolerated.
Those detailed case analyses and legal explanations have made every teacher and student deeply aware of the adverse impact and serious consequences of rumor-mongering, and sounded a deafening alarm for the entire school.
After that, the atmosphere on campus changed quietly. Students became more cautious in their words and actions when communicating with each other. The soil for the breeding of rumors was completely eradicated, and Jiang Ruoxi was finally able to devote herself to her studies without distraction.
In class, she is always fully focused, her clear eyes closely following the teacher's every move, and the pen in her hand constantly recording key knowledge; after class, she dives into the library, absorbing nutrients from the vast sea of books, and when encountering difficult problems, she humbly asks teachers and classmates for help.
Her hard work and concentration are obvious to all, and teachers of all subjects praise her highly. Professor Zhang, who teaches advanced mathematics, always praises Jiang Ruoxi for her quick logical thinking and unique problem-solving ideas in class; Teacher Wang, who teaches the literature appreciation class, often uses Jiang Ruoxi's homework as an example, praising her for her solid writing skills and profound and unique understanding of the works.
These recognitions and encouragements turned into a constant source of motivation, inspiring Jiang Ruoxi to go further and further on the road of seeking knowledge.
As the studies progressed, the school organized a high-level academic competition covering multiple professional fields. With her solid knowledge and excellent adaptability, Jiang Ruoxi stood out in the preliminary round and successfully entered the finals.
The final was filled with experts and the atmosphere was suffocatingly tense, but Jiang Ruoxi was not at all stage fright. She responded to each difficult question calmly and confidently, expounding her own views with witty remarks, and finally won excellent results. When she stood on the podium, holding the certificate of honor in her hand, the audience burst into applause. At that moment, she not only won honor for herself, but also added glory to the school.
On the campus of Beijing, Jiang Ruoxi is like a rising star, shining with her own dazzling brilliance.
In class, she has a quick mind and always speaks to the point, which makes the professors nod in praise frequently; in academic competitions, she stands out with her profound knowledge reserves and excellent adaptability, and achieves excellent results, becoming a role model in the eyes of her classmates. Her name is praised on campus, and everyone admires this excellent and hard-working girl.
Meanwhile, at the military academy on the other side, Lu Tingxiao was also shining brightly. In the much-anticipated military academy competition, he was like a god of war, overcoming all obstacles and winning championships in multiple events with his iron will, superb military skills and outstanding strategic thinking.
When running cross-country with a load, he walked with firm steps, as if walking on flat ground, and was the first to cross the finish line; on the shooting range, he had a sharp eye, and every bullet hit the target, with his results stunning the audience; in tactical drills, he commanded with confidence, led his teammates to perfect cooperation, and broke through the "enemy" defense line time and time again.
The brilliant performance in the competition made Lu Tingxiao famous in the military academy and he became a respected soldier king. His deeds have inspired successive generations of students to train hard and pursue excellence. No matter it was scorching hot or freezing cold, students could always be seen sweating under the guidance of Lu Tingxiao on the training ground.
Lu Tingxiao knew very well that these honors not only belonged to him, but also carried the expectations of the country and the military. In addition to training, he also shared his experiences and skills with his comrades to help them improve their military capabilities. Under his leadership, a strong atmosphere of positivity and striving for excellence was formed throughout the military academy.
Although they were far apart, Jiang Ruoxi and Lu Tingxiao's hearts were always closely connected. They shine in their respective fields, care about each other and encourage each other. When Jiang Ruoxi encountered difficulties in her studies, she would think of Lu Tingxiao's perseverance in the face of difficulties, and thus muster up the courage to move forward; when Lu Tingxiao was tired from training, Jiang Ruoxi's warm smile would appear in his mind, and he would be full of motivation again.
