The vice-principal finally understood the situation. “I was wondering why the school has never announced the special enrollment quota. You hid it so well!”
The principal smiled. “The parents didn’t want to make this information public, so 1 could only keep it a secret.”
The principal looked at Bai Xue and said, “Bai Xue, whether you apologize or not, I will announce that you maliciously framed Jiang Ling’er.”
Bai Xue was speechless. Her face turned pale, and her eyes were filled with tears. She looked at Li Yan pitifully, hoping that her boyfriend could do something.
The principal didn’t have any sympathy at all. “Crying won’t solve the problem.”
Then, the principal looked at Li Yan and said, “Apologies, Young Master Li. I won’t let go of someone who maliciously framed another student.”
Li Yan frowned and said, “Principal, I’ll help her with the transfer procedures as soon as possible.”
Hearing that, Bai Xue immediately said, “Li Yan, no, I like this school very much. 1 can apologize. I was deceived this time.”
She had to stand up from where she fell. ‘Jiang Ling’er, you b*tch. 1 swear that 1 will make you pay!’
Li Yan, on the other hand, felt as though a slap had landed on his face. His brows furrowed as he said, “Have you thought it through? You don’t need to stoop so low.”
Li Yan stared at Bai Xue, his emotions running amok. ‘Do you really like the school Jiang Jun has arranged for you? You’d rather apologize than transfer to another school?’
Bai Xue said seriously, “I’ve thought it through. 1 don’t want to transfer schools. I can protect myself in the future.”
Li Yan nodded. He stood on the side as a self-deprecating smile appeared on his face.
Jiang Ling’er laughed. Things had already reached this point, but Bai Xue was still trying to shirk responsibility. ‘Do you really think that if you don’t admit it, someone else will take the blame for you?
One of the invigilators whispered, “Shameless! You’re still claimingthat you were deceived?”
Another colleague immediately patted the invigilator, willing him to calm down.
Li Yan looked at Bai Xue doubtfully. ‘Did you really frame Jiang Ling’er on purpose? Where did my pure and kind girlfriend go?’
Li Yan said, “Principal, if there’s nothing else, well be leaving.”
The principal said, “That’s all, Young Master Li.”
The principal looked at Bai Xue and said, “Bai Xue, you can’t be late tomorrow, and you shouldn’t find any excuses to not come. This incident will be publicized regardless.”
Li Yan didn’t say anything else and left with the sobbing Bai Xue.
Old Master Jiang looked at the principal and said, “I originally wanted to let the media cover this incident, but forget it. I’ll let the school handle everything. I hope that after tomorrow’s apology, my granddaughter’s name will be cleared.”
The principal said, “After hearing what happened, 1 immediately rushed over. I’m really sorry to have troubled you.”
Old Master Jiang said, “I’m not afraid of trouble. 1 just want to clear my granddaughter’s name. I’ve let go of many incidents because my granddaughter didn’t want to pursue them. Now that she needs my support, of course, I will do my best.”
The principal said, “Old Master Jiang, I’ve wasted your time. We won’t let Jiang Ling’er be slandered again.”
Old Master Jiang said with a smile, “We’ll go back first. Just contact us if there’s anything else.”
The principal stood up and respectfully sent Old Master Jiang and the others off.
Jiang Ling’er and Wen Nuan returned to the classroom.
Yue Ling immediately stepped forward and said mockingly, “You’re finally back? When are you going to pack up and scram?”
Jiang Ling’er laughed and thought inwardly, ‘You actually dare to confront me? Did Bai Xue not tell you anything?’
Jiang Ling’er asked, “Why don’t you try cheating and see if you can get first place? Do you even have evidence that I cheated? If you say things irresponsibly, do you think anyone can protect you?”
Yue Ling shouted excitedly, “With your poor grades, how can you possibly get first place? It’s simply impossible!”
Jiang Ling’er said indifferently, “Yue Ling, you just want to die, don’t you? The one who should take the initiative to drop out is you. We made a bet, and everyone in the class heard it.”
Yue Ling’s eyes widened. ‘Why is Jiang Ling’er not afraid at all? Did she really not cheat? But Bai Xue said that there was enough evidence to prove that Ling’er cheated!’
Yue Ling said, “Impossible! I’m going to clarify this with the dean!”
With that, Yue Ling stormed out!
