Several boys still had unfinished business to say.
What they wanted to say was that since Ming Xiaoxiao's grandmother had saved Xie Li's life, the Xie family should repay the old lady properly. What was an antique compared to that? They heard it was a sandalwood box, worth at most a million, which was nothing to a wealthy family like the Xie family.
Since the crisis a few days ago, the Xie family has received investment from mysterious capital, and their stock has soared, making them the richest family in Linjiang City.
It's really unsightly to escalate the situation to the point where an elderly woman was arrested and taken to the police station.
At this moment, the boys completely forgot how awful Ming Xiaoxiao had been and how she had harassed Xie Li; they just thought Xie Li was cold-blooded.
"Xie Li, can't you just ask your family to drop the lawsuit? They're your saviors, after all. You can't really be that heartless, can you?" The boy who spoke looked righteous.
Xiao Di was displeased upon hearing this: "What do you mean by heartless? I hope you can be this magnanimous and saintly when your house is burgled."
"What a bunch of idiots, all they know is how to be generous with other people's money." Xiao Di rolled his eyes dramatically.
The boys' faces turned bright red, and they said unhappily, "We can't forget our roots. How are we being saints? We're just stating the facts!"
Su Ying smiled and said, "It's hard to say who saved my life. All I know is that this Ms. Ming Caiyun, oh, that is, Ming Xiaoxiao's grandmother, used to be a servant in the Ding family."
Some of the boys didn't quite understand the implied meaning of those words, but Ming Xiaoxiao stiffened for a moment.
"Ah, I get it! What Su Ying is saying is that Ming Xiaoxiao's grandmother should know Xie Li, so why didn't she say anything when Xie Li was trafficked to their village?"
"That's right. Before Li Shen left, they pointed the finger at Old Madam Ding, saying that she instructed the servants to sell Li Shen. Now look at it—it's terrifying to think about!"
"No way, no way, selling their granddaughter to a small mountain village and even sending people to watch over her, what kind of game is the Ding family playing?"
"This theft might have been orchestrated by the Ding family too."
The discussion grew louder and louder. Su Ying looked at the group of girls with satisfaction. Not bad, these were the students of Linjiang No. 1 Middle School. They were smart, unlike those boys who seemed like complete idiots.
"Nonsense! You're slandering and defaming me!" Ming Xiaoxiao couldn't hold back any longer, got up, pointed at the girls who were discussing, and prepared to confront them.
"Let's go." As soon as she stood up, Xie Li took a step and left, finally with no one blocking his way.
By the time Ming Xiaoxiao realized what was happening, Xie Li had already walked quite a distance. She wanted to chase after him, but the head of the teaching department had already arrived.
"Xie Li, are you feeling guilty?!" Ming Xiaoxiao couldn't help but shout loudly, unwilling to give up.
Xie Li: "Feeling guilty? I just don't want to talk to a madman. By the way, instead of putting on a show here, you should think about how to explain things to the Spring Bud Project investigation team."
Ming Xiaoxiao was completely stunned. What did Xie Li mean by that?
She quickly realized what those words meant.
The dean of students didn't come alone; he brought several serious-looking middle-aged men with him. One of them, with a slightly somber expression, said, "Ming Xiaoxiao, is that right? Please come with us."
The news that Ming Xiaoxiao had been taken away by the Spring Bud Project investigation team quickly spread throughout the entire school.
Just as everyone was speculating, the Spring Bud Project investigation team and Linjiang No.1 Middle School issued a statement.
The statement mentioned that ten years ago, Ming Xiaoxiao's perfect score in all subjects and first place in the total score during the selection of the Spring Bud Project was achieved by stealing other people's scores, and the person whose scores were stolen was Xie Li.
