Chapter 201: County School Aftermath
"That's just nonsense they said because they misunderstood."
"How could I misunderstand something when I saw it with my own eyes?"
"It's just a misunderstanding! I already said it was a misunderstanding! Don't I know whether it's Mingxuan or not?"
Xu Tong was really jealous and unhappy, and said sarcastically: "Who knows? After all, Liang Mingxuan is so smart, you are far worse than him. How could it be easy for him to fool you? You are also stupid. I didn't believe that I would help others count money after being sold. Now, I have no choice but to believe it, hahaha!"
"What do you mean? Are you calling me stupid?"
"Don't overthink it. I didn't scold you. I was just telling you the truth. Honest advice can be hard to hear but helpful, right? I'm doing this for your own good."
"Damn it, you bastard!"
Qin Ning'an originally felt very sad because this matter had caused a lot of trouble to Mingxuan and Sister Xu. Yesterday, Sister Xu and Mingxuan went to his house and finally clarified the matter with his parents. They made peace and the matter was resolved satisfactorily. He was very happy.
Unexpectedly, this matter spread so quickly to the county school.
Not only was the rumor widely spread, but it was also full of nonsense.
Although Qin Ning'an wasn't very smart, he was definitely not a coward. He was so angry that he rushed over and started fighting with Xu Tong, "I told you not to talk nonsense!"
"Ah! Why are you hitting me?"
Xu Tong was shocked and fought back angrily.
The others who were laughing and watching the fun were stunned.
Lu Xiaoyue happened to come in with Liang Mingxuan and was shocked to see this scene.
Lu Xiaoyue rushed forward in frustration: "Xu Tong, how dare you bully me? Do you have any shame?"
Liang Mingxuan hurriedly followed, "Xu Tong, stop it!"
How could someone as honest as Ning An start a fight? He smiled cheerfully at everyone he met. Apart from Dou Zhongli and a few other self-righteous guys, there was almost no one in the county school who disliked Qin Ning An.
They naturally thought that Xu Tong was the one causing the trouble.
Two people stepped forward to try to take sides. An enraged Qin Ning'an seized the opportunity to punch Xu Tong in the face. Xu Tong screamed, "Qin Ning'an, you motherfucker—I'm going to beat you to death! Zhang Miao, why don't you come and help me!"
Zhang Miao, terrified, rushed forward and said, "What are you doing! What are you doing! Stop it!"
The others suddenly woke up and rushed forward to try to separate the two groups.
"Oh, stop it, stop it!"
"Look at Xu Tong, his nose is bleeding. If you keep hitting him, he'll get hurt. Stop it now!"
"We are all classmates, so let's talk it out if we have anything to say."
Everyone worked together and finally separated the two groups of people who were fighting.
Lu Xiaoyue glared at Xu Tong and yelled, "Shame on you!"
Liang Mingxuan pursed his lips: "Why are you bullying Ning An?"
Xu Tong yelled angrily, "How did I bully him? It was clearly this bastard who hit me first! Do you have any eyes? Do you have mouths instead of eyes? Can't you ask clearly?"
Lu Xiaoyue was stunned.
Qin Ningan was furious: "You deserve to be beaten!"
Liang Mingxuan immediately said, "Even if Ning An started it first, it must have been you who said something to get into trouble. In the end, you were the one who started it."
Lu Xiaoyue: “Yes!”
"You guys—" Xu Tong sneered in anger, "No wonder Qin Ning'an, that idiot, was harmed by you but still protected you. You really are very talkative."
Liang Mingxuan frowned: "What do you mean?"
The county school takes the fight between classmates very seriously.
Lu Xiaoyue has a special identity, Liang Mingxuan is the most respected by the gentlemen, and Qin Ningan's family is super rich. If he is really wronged, the Qin family will never give up. It will definitely be a big trouble.
In short, the dean was alarmed and the gentlemen's faces were filled with anger.
"How disgraceful, how disgraceful!"
"Look at you guys, have you read all the sage books? Are you trying to have a group fight? Okay, okay, come on, let's fight one more!"
"Tell me! What's going on?"
Xu Tong was furious and complained, Qin Ningan angrily accused, Liang Mingxuan and Lu Xiaoyue understood and blamed Xu Tong.
The dean stopped the four people who were talking at their own pace and looked at Liang Mingxuan. "Mingxuan, you tell me. I believe you won't lie."
Xu Tong stared anxiously: "Dean——"
"Just shut up. If he lies, just refute him and the truth will eventually come out."
Xu Tong had to swallow his dissatisfaction and felt indignant in his heart: The dean is biased. What's so great about being good at studying?
Liang Mingxuan suppressed his anger and bowed respectfully: "Yes, Dean."
No wonder the dean appointed Liang Mingxuan to speak without hesitation. Liang Mingxuan spoke clearly, had clear thinking and smooth logic. After his speech, the whole story was clear.
Qin Ning'an's eyes lit up with joy and he nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, that's right!" Mingxuan said everything he wanted to say but couldn't say clearly because of his frustration.
After Liang Mingxuan finished speaking, Qin Ningan couldn't wait to say, "Dean, gentlemen, it's true. Yesterday, Sister Xu and Mingxuan came to my house. My parents knew it was a misunderstanding. They felt very guilty and asked them to accompany Sister Xu and the others to the Lotus Restaurant for a banquet with the villagers of Liangjia Village. They also sent our carriage to take Sister Xu and Mingxuan back to Liangjia Village. My parents are not people who can be easily fooled. Don't they care about me? Don't they feel sorry for me?"
The dean and several gentlemen nodded.
"Xu Tong, do you have anything else to say?"
Xu Tong panicked.
After leaving Liangjia Village yesterday with Dou Zhongli and Zhang Miao, he couldn't wait to return to the county school and spread rumors there.
They had no idea what happened later.
"I, I, I don't know what happened next! How could I have known that Qin Ning'an's cousin would lie? How could I have imagined that this was actually a misunderstanding! I didn't know!"
The dean frowned and scolded, "Don't you know? You've been classmates for months, don't you know the slightest bit about your classmate's character? Haven't all those years of reading sage books enlightened you? Don't you have your own judgment when facing things? At the slightest sign of trouble, you start talking nonsense like a gossipmonger. If Liang Mingxuan's eldest sister-in-law hadn't gone to the Qin family with the village head and others to explain things clearly, how would Liang Mingxuan defend himself against this rumor today? You must know that this will ruin him!"
Xu Tong's face turned pale, and his knees gave way, dropping to his knees. "Dean, I, I didn't know it would turn out like this. I—seeing is believing. I really didn't expect that seeing is so unreliable. It's my fault, it's my fault. Please punish me, Dean."
Anyone could protect Liang Mingxuan, but Mrs. Qin and Mr. Qin definitely wouldn't.
"You do deserve punishment," the dean said coldly. "You'll be on duty for a month. Besides cleaning the classroom and wiping the tables and chairs, you'll also have to water the vegetable garden behind the academy after school. Also, apologize to Liang Mingxuan and Qin Ning'an."
Xu Tong secretly groaned, what is going on?
But he didn't dare to object. Not only did he have to swallow his anger and agree, but he also had to thank the dean and apologize honestly.
Lu Xiaoyue pouted. Why did he only apologize to Mingxuan and Ning An? Why didn't he apologize to her?
