Chapter 280: Apology

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

He Xiao was angry, but they were all colleagues after all. It was not good to fall out with each other before figuring out the situation. He could only hold back his anger and sit in his office. He pursed his lips and said angrily, “Who can tell me why?”

It was obvious that Chen Wei could not answer this question, so he could only ask Su Tang for help.

Su Tang was timid to begin with. Now that she was interrogated by the teacher, she could not say a word.

Shi Man looked at their helpless expressions and sighed slightly. She smiled and said, “Let me do the talking.”

As soon as she spoke, everyone’s eyes instantly focused on her.

Geng Hui felt nervous for no reason. His Adam’s apple bobbed up and down, but in the end, he could not say anything to interrupt her.

Shi Man walked calmly to Su Tang’s side, her expression extremely cold. “I think Bai Yao should apologize to Su Tang and me for what she did in the exam this time. However, she refused to admit her mistake, so Chen Wei stood up for us.”

Hearing her clear and calm voice, whispers immediately broke out in the office.

Many students looked at Bai Yao, wondering what she had done to dare to offend Shi Man.

As they were discussing, someone suddenly lowered his voice and explained to the people around him, “I heard that Bai Yao’s overall score has become zero. This time, she’s the last place in the cohort!”

She had tried her best to lower her voice, but it still entered the ears of everyone present. The scene instantly became silent. Anyone could tell that this might be a big mistake. Otherwise, the school would not have punished her so severely.

Bai Yao’s face turned pale, and her eyes were bloodshot. She clenched her fists and looked up, trembling. “So what if I did something wrong? I’ll apologize to them, okay?”

Everyone looked at each other and fell silent.

Only Shi Man’s lips twitched expressionlessly and she said with a faint smile, “Is this your attitude of apologizing?”

Bai Yao bit her lip and closed her eyes. The blood drained from her face. “I’m sorry, but I’ve already been punished by the school. Can you stop being so aggressive?”

Shi Man raised her eyebrows playfully. “If you did something wrong, you have to dare to bear the consequences. If you had apologized calmly just now and didn’t take any chances, this wouldn’t have happened.”

Bai Yao’s face turned paler and almost transparent. “Shi Man, just wait and see.”

With that, she pushed away the students blocking the door and rushed out with her head lowered.

He Xiao was worried about her safety and chased after her in exasperation, leaving Geng Hui and his students looking at each other.

Someone in the crowd mentioned the gathering first. Only then did Geng Hui come back to his senses. He hurriedly put on a smile and said, “We should go out and celebrate. You can choose any place you want, but the teacher’s bonus isn’t much. Don’t choose anything too expensive!”

This time, the students, who were originally nervous, immediately burst into laughter. Even Su Tang’s face revealed a smile.

Shi Man patted her head with a smile and took the initiative to leave the office with a group of people.

The stack of exercise books that Chen Wei had moved just now had been forgotten in the corner. Later on, Geng Hui would still feel heartache when he thought about the huge sum of money he had spent to buy them.

The students of Class F had never had such a group activity before. All of them found it novel. They originally thought that with Geng Hui around, they would be especiallyeserved. However, they did not expect Geng Hui to be so approachable in private. They immediately let go of their nervousness, as if they were going out to play with good friends. They kept chatting and laughing with Geng Hui.

When the group arrived at the restaurant, they occupied a large dining area.

Shi Man brought Su Tang to a random place to sit down and poured her a glass of fruit juice. She narrowed her eyes in relief and smiled. “You did well today. In the future, if anyone bullies you, you have to fight back boldly, understand?” “Mm!” Su Tang nodded solemnly. Her smile was so sweet that anyone who saw it could not help but like her.

Chen Wei, who was watching from the side, was stunned. It was only when Geng Hui couldn’t stand it anymore and rebuked him that he reacted.

He immediately lowered his head. His dark face was covered in a layer of redness, and his mouth only opened a crack. He said in a muffled voice, “Mr. Geng, I beg you, please don’t tell anyone!”

Geng Hui couldn’t help but laugh. He pursed his lips and nodded. “Alright, but it depends on your performance.”

Chen Wei was instantly dumbfounded. He did not expect that the seemingly upright Teacher Geng Hui would also raise conditions with others. He asked, “What performance?”

“Next semester’s performance.” Geng Hui took a sip of the sweet juice in his glass meaningfully. He thought to himself that this high-end cafeteria was indeed different. Even the taste of the juice was different from those in other places.

Chen Wei smacked his lips and said dejectedly, “Alright, alright, alright. I definitely won’t cause trouble for you in the next semester, alright?”

Geng Hui curled his lips into a smile and said proudly, “Sometimes, with Student Man around, you wouldn’t dare to do it.”

Chen Wei’s strong self-esteem immediately made him want to fight back and refute. However, when he suddenly raised his head and saw Shi Man’s lukewarm gaze, his heart suddenly trembled like a deflated ball.

To be honest, sometimes when Shi Man was in the class, he really did not dare to act rashly!
