Chapter 328 The Orphanage's Lies: The Handsome Flower Boy 28
The principal held a testimony in his hand, which detailed the investigation process, the witnesses who testified, and the mall's office seal.
This serves as proof that their testimony is true. These days, people still want to be good Samaritans; it's an honorable thing.
Not protecting bad people and testifying for good people is a good thing, it's an act of bravery, and it deserves praise!
What's more, they still have their eyes on the letter of praise that Shen Ci promised!
The parents of all three children saw the testimonies and the detailed investigation process recorded therein, and understood the ins and outs of the matter.
They wanted to argue, but given the circumstances and the current situation, there was no room for them to argue. The child was about to be expelled, so what was the point of arguing?
"Expulsion?!"
The parents of the three children were terrified. These days, being able to get into No. 4 High School means that one foot is already in the door of university, and it is the hope and pride of the whole family!
I finally got accepted, how can I be expelled? That would be a waste of my education!
If he gets expelled, his future will be ruined! How can my child be so foul-mouthed outside!
"Quickly! Apologize to them!"
Zhu Yan's father shoved his son hard, and the parents of the other two families also urged him on. The truth was no longer important; what mattered was keeping their student status.
If it's truly a slander or some kind of misunderstanding, we can investigate and prove it gradually after this matter has passed.
The three of them certainly didn't want to go up and apologize, but they didn't expect that the matter would actually escalate to the school level.
They were just saying some unpleasant things outside.
It just so happened that it was said in front of the person in question, and the person's mother caught her red-handed. And coincidentally, Lu Jinnian's mother is a very serious person.
But what if the one they slander and spread rumors about is Lu Jinnian, who doesn't have a mother? Then this bad reputation will stay on his head forever.
What if the person they slandered and spread rumors about was a girl? The impact would certainly be even greater than it is now.
Lu Jinnian had many suitors and received some gifts, but nothing more transgressed.
These days, people aren't bold enough to be more open; confessing your feelings is considered quite a big deal.
Several parents kept urging them on, and all the teachers, students and parents in the school were watching the three of them. The three of them blushed and were pushed onto the stage by their parents.
The arrow is on the bowstring, it has to be released. Given the situation, how can we not go up? How can they escape?
He could only bow deeply to Lu Jinnian, who was standing next to Shen Ci.
Her voice trembled and choked with sobs as she spoke.
"Lu Jinnian, we're sorry! We shouldn't have talked nonsense and slandered you!"
"Aunt Chen, we're sorry! We were wrong!"
"We'll never do it again! Please forgive us!"
“The things we said to Lu Jinnian outside of school are not true. He did not have any illicit relationships with women. We just exaggerated on purpose. I’m sorry.”
Who has the guts to mess around with men and women at such a young age?
Even if they were doing it, they would definitely do it discreetly. How could the three of them possibly see it?
Shen Ci nodded slightly, finally showing a hint of goodwill towards the principal.
"We are grateful to the school for investigating the matter thoroughly and clearing the child's name. We accept the apology and hope that these three students can truly learn from this lesson."
These three students slandered others without any evidence, but I'm letting them off the hook because they're still children, as long as they clarify their mistakes and don't spread rumors again.
I'm willing to give you a chance.
After all, getting into high school isn't easy, and it's just as difficult for others. A few words from you could very well ruin someone's life.
We hope you will be more careful with your words and actions in the future; we will not pursue this matter further this time.
The principal quickly assured her, "Absolutely! Ms. Shen is very understanding! Please rest assured, the school's atmosphere will only get better and better!"
They've gone this far, even tracing it back to the school. Is this what you call not pursuing it? If they really do pursue it, won't it end up in court?
Sending these boys to jail? Sigh, these big shots are not to be trifled with! The principal can only pay more attention to this student named Lu Jinnian in the future.
When these three people went on stage to apologize, so many students in the audience were watching, many of whom were former classmates, and the matter had already been discussed.
"That's Lu Jinnian? Oh my god, he's so handsome!"
"He was the most handsome guy in our junior high school. I think those three are just jealous of how outstanding he is. He's good-looking and academically excellent."
"Sigh, he used to have a lot of fans, but he never dated anyone. I don't know how he got spread these rumors."
"So, according to you, he's not only not the womanizer these three people are spreading rumors about, but actually a person of high moral character?"
"Yes!"
Lu Jinnian's reputation has been basically cleared, and he has even gained a lot of goodwill.
As for Zhu Yan and the other two, they did indeed spread rumors and exaggerated the situation. The scenarios they fabricated have not yet materialized.
Because of this appearance, Lu Jinnian became a popular figure at the new school, and his handsome face attracted attention wherever he went.
The office director has been replaced by that female teacher who was reading the newspaper, and the office phone has been reverted to being a public one. According to the principal, the school must punish teachers like this!
This person has an extremely improper attitude, slacks off during work hours, does things unrelated to work, refuses to accept complaints from parents, and even uses insulting language.
The result was dismissal! Immediate dismissal!
Instead of demotion, salary deduction, or suspension, he was directly dismissed to demonstrate his resolve.
Shen Ci was very satisfied with the decision. The enrollment process went smoothly, and Lu Jinnian would be living at No. 4 High School for the rest of his high school years.
After taking care of the children, she had to get back to her own things. The promised investment was real, but the direction of the investment needed to be changed.
Riding the wave of openness, as long as you have funds, it's very easy to succeed in whatever you do.

Director Wang was fired.
Covered in dust and clutching his belongings, he was kicked out of school as quickly as possible. Clutching to his chest was none other than the novel he'd been sneaking a reading break during work hours.
"Director Wang, are you off work?"
When he ran into a colleague he didn't know on the street and greeted him warmly, Director Wang just gave him a cold look.
Is this intentional? Why bring up something you don't want to talk about?
"Hey, what book is this? The cover is quite nice, and it's pink! Which famous author wrote it?"
An unsuspecting colleague pointed to a book cover peeking out from his chest and asked.
The Domineering Female Bureau Chief's Fierce Pampering
"None of your business!"
Director Wang clutched the novel even tighter and took off running!
This book must not be seen by anyone else. It was obtained from overseas, and the content and plot described in it...
Tsk tsk tsk, he wanted to watch it again after seeing it!
But if someone discovers it and reports it, then we're doomed. The book will definitely be confiscated, and we might even be fined!
Director Wang ran even faster.
