"Wait." Lin Yitang stopped him.
Wang Xiande and his group immediately turned their gazes towards her, with hope and earnestness on their faces.
Lin Yitang's face was as cold as ice. Standing there, she looked like a snow lotus that had been abandoned from the world, cold and indifferent to ordinary people. Seeing everyone looking over, she said calmly, "Although the results are out, I still want to know why classmate Meng Yuan is stirring up trouble for no apparent reason."
Everyone turned their eyes to Meng Yuan, his face flushed the color of liver.
Meng Yuan knew his fate by now, and realized that even Wang Xiande couldn't help him, so he simply gave up and said, "He stole my girlfriend first, and then I took revenge on him."
As soon as these words were spoken, there was an instant uproar and the office fell inexplicably quiet.
Lin Yitang's pupils shrank slightly. Oh my god, the real-life version of the domineering CEO drama was actually being played out on her cheap stepson?
Wen Hangxing subconsciously looked at Lin Yitang, as if explaining to her: "I didn't do such a thing."
When Meng Yuan heard this, he was like an enraged bull, his eyes red as he said, "She likes you so much, how dare you forget her?!"
Even Wen Hangxing, no matter how steady he was, was speechless at this moment. "Tell me, who is that person?"
"You don't know who she is yet?!" Meng Yuan stared at him fiercely, the veins on his neck bulging as if he was furious. He roared. Seeing this, Mother Meng hugged him distressedly.
Yan Junqi seemed to remember something and suddenly said, "A few days ago, a girl came to give Hangxing something, but Hangxing confiscated it. Her name was Zhao Xin."
"How dare you refuse to accept her gift?!" Mei Kai San's roar rang out.
Things were getting a bit dramatic at this point, and everyone had different expressions. Assistant Li was caught off guard and overheard the young master's embarrassing incident. He was extremely embarrassed and wished he hadn't heard anything. Zhao Kunde watched Wen Hangxing's speechless and embarrassed expression with great interest, thinking to himself, "This kid has always been so steady and composed. Today is the first time he's seen him like this."
Lin Yitang also found it somewhat amusing at this moment, and casually covered the corner of his mouth with his hand, which he could not suppress. Unintentionally meeting Wen Hangxing's gaze, he naturally and fluently lowered his hand.
The farce ended here. Lin Yitang naturally had no reason to stay any longer. She turned around and planned to leave with Zhao Kunde and others. However, when she left, she passed by Ye Lin, who looked ashen.
Ye Lin opened her mouth to say something, but found Lin Yitang paused, his eyes still looking forward. "Teacher Ye, I don't need to clarify what role you played in today's incident. I have no interest in dealing with you. But I advise you that as a teacher, if you are trapped by power and fame, the gains will outweigh the losses. As a teacher, you should remember your original intention."
Ye Lin raised her head quickly, the corners of her mouth trembling, and her whole body was tense like a fully stretched string.
Lin Yitang didn't take her reaction to heart at all and walked forward.
Wen Hangxing was originally walking beside Lin Yitang. When he saw her stop and walk towards the door at a leisurely pace, he naturally heard these words. When Lin Yitang walked up to him, he glanced lightly in the direction of Ye Lin.
Ye Lin was suddenly faced with the undisguised malice and coldness. She could no longer support herself and fell down. Cold sweat broke out all over her body. She clearly realized that she was finished.
Lin Yitang heard a "bang" behind her and subconsciously wanted to look back, but she saw Wen Hangxing standing behind her. When he saw her looking at him, he asked, "What's wrong?"
Lin Yitang shook her head and said, forget it, what happened has nothing to do with her.
Wang Xiande stared at the Meng family angrily. Mother Meng was annoyed by his fussing. "Isn't it just leaving Saint-Bilen? With our family's resources, we can easily send you somewhere else."
Wang Xiande sneered at this and said, "Do you think that if you offend the Wen family, your Meng family will be better off?"
The fat lady's face became uneasy. "Brother-in-law, what do you mean?"
Wang Xiande was too lazy to look at her any longer and leaned against the wall in despair.
Neither of them noticed a pair of sad and vicious eyes in the corner.
Lin Yitang was about to go home, but she noticed that Wen Hangxing was still following her at a leisurely pace, so she signaled him with her eyes.
Wen Hangxing asked in confusion: "What's wrong?"
"I'm going back. Aren't you going back to class?"
Wen Hangxing then realized that he had followed her out of the teaching area. He said a little embarrassedly, "It's time for get out of class to end. Can't I go out for a walk?"
It was strange to say, Wen Hangxing had always been a cold and gloomy person. He possessed the arrogance typical of children from aristocratic families, but he never showed it in public. He never wasted time with others, as it wasn't worth it. Therefore, over the years, he had never argued with anyone, let alone bickered like this. But in front of Lin Yitang, he seemed to truly transform into a sixteen-year-old, revealing the liveliness and flamboyance that befitted his age.
Lin Yitang was too lazy to expose him and did not respond.
Seeing that she was silent, Wen Hangxing suddenly seemed a little uncomfortable. After a moment of hesitation, he asked, "Why did you ask me the reason just now?"
"Hmm?" Lin Yitang said matter-of-factly, "You got into a fight, so I have to know what happened. If you're right, I'll defend you and comfort you. If you're wrong, I'll lead you in apologizing and making amends." At this point, Lin Yitang paused, narrowing his eyes at him. "Do you want me to defend you directly? Xiao Wen, that's not in line with modern values."
Wen Hangxing suppressed his expression and looked at her with a complex gaze that Lin Yitang didn't quite understand. He remembered that when he had invited parents before, no matter if he had done anything wrong, the visitors never asked him a single question. They always quickly shut them up and hurried away. She was truly different.
