The color drained from Rong Feiyu’s face, and she exclaimed sharply, “Why? Mr. Ye, what did I do wrong? It was clearly my sister…”

“Was it me? Rong Feiyu, think carefully before you speak,” said Rong Qi as she looked at her, a teasing smile on her lips.

Rong Feiyu glared at Rong Qi resentfully and said, “Qi, I was just a witness. I merely spoke the truth about what 1 saw.”

“The truth? How about the incident where your classmates ganged up to bully Lu Qi? Why didn’t you mention that?”

“I did…”

“Right? Let me guess how you said it. Was it something like: Lu Qi had a fiery temper and clashed with Zheng Zhixuan, leading to a misunderstanding? You downplayed a big issue, hoping to cover it up?”

“I…” Rong Feiyu was left speechless by Rong Qi’s retort because that’s exactly what she had said.

Lu Qi took a step forward, pointing at the injuries on her face, and said mockingly, “Vice Principal Qiu, how come you didn’t feel sorry for me when a whole group from their class attacked me alone? My injuries are real and so many people saw them! I’m also your student. You can’t be biased!”

Qiu Yonggen had grown extremely fed up with Class 7 by now. Hearing Lu Qi’s words, he responded impatiently, “Who saw it? The witnesses who came forward all said you were the ones bullying others. The surveillance footage in your classroom happened to be damaged. Can we trust what you’re saying based on just your words? Unless some students from your class can testify for you, no one will believe it.”

“You’re clearly biased!” Lu Qi exclaimed. She was so angry her chest hurt.

Tang Lin also sneered, “Of course, your words alone are not reliable. The facts are as they are now. Principal Qiu, Mr. Ye, the students from Class 1 aren’t at fault. They were only trying to defend their classmates. Are you really going to be criticized because of this incident?”

It was a threat to use Ye Nanshen’s reputation.

Rong Qi’s eyes were slightly chilled. She had intended to end this, to let them go. But now, it seemed some people wouldn’t learn unless they were taught a lesson. She thought, ‘They could defame me, but they couldn’t touch Ye Nanshen.’

Rong Qi turned her head and gave a wry smile. She said, “You want evidence, right? The classroom surveillance is damaged, but the corridor surveillance is still intact. Do you want to see that? How was Lu Qi dragged into your class? Or maybe, if Mr. Tang feels this is unjust, you could bring in a few journalists to report on it, and let netizens decide?”

Rong Qi lowered her gaze, her voice continuing, “Someone who stole someone else’s work and claimed it as their own has no credibility. Also, if I’m not mistaken, the cheating incident during the entrance test for freshmen, neither Vice Principal Qiu nor Mr. Han has identified the person behind it yet, right? Maybe you should look into it again? If you can’t find them, I don’t mind having Class 7 help. Or, I believe Ding Ding from BAE could find them too. While we’re at it, we could restore Capital University’s reputation and expose the person behind the cheating.”

Rong Qi took a step forward, looking at the stubborn Tang Lin, and said coldly, “If you really want to report this, do you believe Capital University’s reputation will be ruined by your own hands? From the very beginning, you listened to one side and didn’t investigate the truth, which’s injustice; you intensified the conflict between the classes and judged right and wrong based on grades, which’s bias; you let a habitual liar testify, that’s foolishness; you only dealt with Class 7 and kept Class 1, that’s acting in cahoots with the tiger, it’s unkind and unjust, aiding and abetting wrongdoing! So, are you going to make a big fuss about this? Do you dare? Expelling a few scum from Class 1 is a small matter, but destroying Capital University’s century-old reputation is a big deal! Do you think good grades make you invincible? Do you think you can walk arrogantly just because of your grades?”
