Upon hearing this, the students who had just begun to have some thoughts about it all showed disdain.
She changed the locks and then complained that people didn't come back to see her. What an utterly bizarre person!
Having raised her for over a decade, she treats him like a thief. No wonder He Jingcheng had to ring the doorbell when she entered the house earlier.
Cheng Yi choked, immediately feeling embarrassed. He Jing was right; Ye Shuping had indeed changed the locks. She didn't dare continue arguing, fearing things would get out of hand, so she quickly changed the subject: "I'm very sorry about Manman. I wasn't in a good mood that day, which is why I didn't answer her call. The school has rescinded Manman's expulsion, and Manman already knows she was wrong. She wrote a 10,000-word self-criticism, which she will read at the flag-raising ceremony next Monday..."
"He Jing, may I ask you to forgive Manman on her behalf?"
He Jing was not surprised by this result, because this was the only way for Cheng Yi to save her reputation. She just did not expect her to act so quickly. This illness did not make her confused, but made her more shrewd.
Sure enough, after she said these things, the students' malicious thoughts about her began to waver.
Kind people don't want to assume malice in others; what if it really is all a misunderstanding?
One of the more easygoing classmates spoke up: "Does what Zhang Man did have anything to do with you?"
The whole class heard what Zhang Man said that day. Of course, it cannot be ruled out that Zhang Man was provoked by the expulsion and deliberately dragged Cheng Yi into the mess.
Cheng Yi's eyelashes trembled, her eyes red-rimmed: "Please believe me, how could I possibly do such a thing? Manman apologized to me afterwards, saying that she shouldn't have been punished for my wrongdoing while I stayed in Yingao and deliberately smeared me. I have a recording here, and I can play it for you if you want to hear it."
He Jing glanced at Shen Qiuyu, who crossed her arms and adopted an arrogant attitude that seemed to say, "Go ahead and wash, let's see how far you can whitewash yourself." She said, "Go ahead and wash."
Cheng Yi took out her phone and said as she put it down, "This is a WeChat call we made after I got sick."
In the recording, Zhang Man actually apologized to Cheng Yi in a very serious manner, saying that what she said in the classroom before was just nonsense she had talked about after being provoked.
She also vaguely indicated that she would never have lost control if He Jing hadn't misled her with that phone call.
The way the students looked at He Jing changed again.
Yes, Zhang Man clearly only wanted He Jing to let her go that day, but after He Jing's few words of instigation, the situation inexplicably changed. So...
The scheming one wasn't Cheng Yi, but...
He Jing smiled faintly: "I didn't expect Cheng Yi to have such a good habit of saving voice recordings after a call. It seems that even if he loses a lot of money due to online fraud, he can recover it in time and have the Cheng family's legal team sue the other party until they are bankrupt. Since Zhang Man has returned to school, then the matter is over. Does it make any difference whether I forgive her or not?"
Yes.
Why would she record a perfectly good WeChat call?
You've already gotten them back to school, and now you're begging for forgiveness?
So what? If He Jing doesn't forgive him, can she still kick him out of Yin Gao?
Doesn't everything ultimately decide for her, the real heiress of the Cheng family?
The nice guy immediately fell silent.
Wu Yu couldn't listen to it anymore and urged He Jing, "Sister Jing, let's go."
He Jing gave a faint "hmm" and placed the fruit and flower baskets on the coffee table.
As the group turned to leave, Cheng Yi suddenly coughed violently behind them.
Then, the nanny called out anxiously, "Miss!" Before anyone could react, Ye Shuping rushed out of the room, panicking, "Xiaoyi!"
