Chapter 291 - 291 Standpoint
291 Standpoint
“Ai Yan, you’re wrong. This doesn’t seem to have anything to do with whether the school pampers Chu Ning. Your behavior itself is wrong. How can you still be so aggressive when you knocked her books onto the ground?” The other students nearby could no longer stand it and immediately spoke up.
“I’ve already done it, so what!” Ai Yan placed her hands on her hips, looking fearless.
“Alright, alright. Let’s not argue over such a small matter. Take your seats and prepare for the next lesson.” The class monitor, Song Gui, came to smooth things over.
Although he didn’t like Ai Yan’s behavior, as the class monitor, he couldn’t have a clear personal stand. He had to prioritize the unity and stability of the class. What made things difficult for him was that Ye Ting liked to form small groups in the class, especially after Chu Ning had been suppressed by the school.
“Class monitor, you weren’t like this in the past,” the straightforward Xiaomi suddenly looked at Song Gui and said.
Other than being classmates, Song Gui and Chu Ning were good friends in private. But now that Chu Ning was not around and her things had been knocked to the ground, Song Gui still refused to stand up for her.
Xiaomi was an innocent person. She didn’t want to see Chu Ning’s things being trampled on. She wasn’t aware of how terrifying Chu Ning’s true strength was.
However, Song Gui understood Chu Ning. There was a reason he could become the class monitor. Song Gui knew that Chu Ning would definitely have other arrangements and means.
“Look at how smart the class monitor is. He knew that Chu Ning can no longer stay in school, so he chose to cut off all ties with her. Unlike you, you’re really… a little silly.” Ye Ting’s deskmate and lackey, Wang Li, finally spoke at this time. She had been waiting for this moment.
“Wang Li, you’re really a b*tch. You’re so arrogant just because Chu Ning isn’t here!” A female student immediately stood up and spoke up for Xiaomi.
“I think everyone has the right to speak. Do we have to wait for Chu Ning to be in a good mood before we can speak? Are we still in a feudal society?” Ye Ting said softly at this time.
“Ye Ting, don’t be too proud!”
“Zhao Ying, be quiet. There’s nothing wrong with what Ye Ting said!”
More and more female students began to join in the conflict. They were divided into two camps — one supporting Chu Ning and the other supporting Ye Ting.
Many male students in the class looked on in anticipation. They had been pleased to see the female students having conflicts previously. Of course, some didn’t want this to happen. After all, those who supported Chu Ning and Ye Ting didn’t want them to be the core of public opinion.
“Enough, go back to your seats!” Song Gui looked at the situation that was gradually getting out of control and instantly shouted. At this moment, he also lost his usual easygoing attitude and became serious.
The noisy classroom abruptly quietened down. The class monitor, Song Gui, was a person who always had a smile on his face, but when he was truly angry, these female students really didn’t dare to refute him.
Song Gui’s face darkened. His gaze slowly swept across the two groups of female students.
“Whoever says another word, I want you to write me a 10,000-word reflection by hand,” Song Gui said slowly.
“All of you, return to your seats!” After hearing Song Gui’s words, the group of female students silently returned to their seats. As for their inner thoughts, the rest of the students in the class had no chance to hear them.
“Hmph, Chu Ning, you’re no match for me,” Ye Ting thought to herself.
Even though she had been scolded by Song Gui, Ye Ting was not unhappy at all. She knew that as time passed, Chu Ning would only become more passive.
After Xiaomi sat down, she sprawled on the table and covered her face with her arms, sobbing soundlessly.
She felt helpless. Not only for herself, but also for Chu Ning.
Song Gui looked at the quiet classroom. His eyes remained calm, but when he looked at Xiaomi, he couldn’t help but sigh.
“It’s only been two days and it’s already become like this. Chu Ning, please come back quickly. You’ve caused me to be misunderstood,” Song Gui thought to himself.
Xu Xi was still reading his book. He wasn’t even interested in looking up at what had happened in the classroom.
How could a person who had been praised by the mayor of M City be bullied by these high school students?
Thinking of this, Xu Xi couldn’t help but smile. He was looking forward to Chu Ning’s next move.
Chu Ning’s book was picked up by the other students and placed back on the table. There hadn’t been much of an impact; there was only a little dust on the book.
However, the significance of this was great.
Chu Ning’s position had been shaken. She was no longer ‘The One’ in the school. Even if her learning ability was unparalleled, she would not be recognized by the school.
