When Ye Feng and Fang Qingxue returned to school, the class bell just rang, and the two of them parted ways and each headed for their respective classrooms.
However, just as Ye Feng had arrived at the door of Clinical Medicine Class 002, he found that there were already two women waiting there.
"Ye Feng, hurry up! Everyone is waiting for you!"
Among the two women, one was a mature lady and the other was a mature woman, specifically Vice-president Jiang Ying and the head teacher Shu Yuehua!
Both of them had faces full of concern at the moment, and upon hearing their words, Ye Feng was taken aback,
"Who is waiting for me?"
"The board of directors! Today, the board will vote to determine the punishment for you! You still have one last chance to defend yourself, and we'll accompany you there!" Jiang Ying was speechless with this guy, such a big deal and he hadn't taken it to heart.
It was then Ye Feng remembered that Jiang Ying had told him about it just yesterday, and he scratched his head, "Let's go then. Where is the board meeting held?"
"At the university hall! This time, not only are the school directors involved, but many teachers and students are also allowed to observe. The school might use your case as an exception to warn about the recent bad atmosphere around the campus!"
Jiang Ying was very worried, and when she learned that students and teachers would be observing, she felt a sense of foreboding,
"You need to be mentally prepared this time, the school might give you a severe punishment!"
Hearing this, Ye Feng simply shrugged indifferently, but Shu Yuehua's pretty face darkened,
"If the school really expels Ye Feng this time, I will resign as well!"
Hmm?
Shu Yuehua's words were full of determination, but they took both Jiang Ying and Ye Feng by surprise.
With a flash in his eyes, Ye Feng understood Shu Yuehua's intentions and felt somewhat moved.
And Jiang Ying was quite astonished as she began to sense an unusual relationship between Shu Yuehua and Ye Feng.
"Don't worry, this time I will try my best!" Jiang Ying certainly didn't want Ye Feng to be expelled from the school either and now held Shu Yuehua's hand, offering consolation.
The three of them chatted as they made their way to the university hall!
Jiangnan University's hall was generally used for meetings and training sessions with teachers and school leaders and sometimes served as the venue for thesis defense competitions, but this was the first time it was used for a board meeting!
When Ye Feng and the other two entered the hall, they saw that thousands of seats were already more than half-filled.
Many teachers and students were sitting in the back rows, whispering among themselves, while the front rows were reserved for the directors and leaders of Jiangnan University.
In addition, on the podium of the hall, there was a long table where President Luo Zhiyuan and the Vice-president Wang Shi were sitting.
As soon as Ye Feng and the others entered the hall, they immediately attracted everyone's attention, with people pointing and talking about Ye Feng.
Not just them, but some of the directors in the front row also started discussing among themselves. Although they had heard of Ye Feng's reputation for causing trouble and fighting, the majority of them were seeing him in person for the first time.
Vice-president Wang Shi, who was sitting on the stage, glanced at his wristwatch, and seeing that Ye Feng was nearly a quarter of an hour late, his expression immediately darkened.
"Student Ye Feng, don't you have any respect for the board of directors? Don't you have any regard for the rules of the school? Making so many directors and teachers and students wait for you, you really think highly of yourself!"
Wang Shi, wearing a pair of large-lensed black-framed glasses, looked to be in his sixties and exuded an extremely conservative, stubborn, lifeless vibe.
And at this moment, he rebuked Ye Feng sharply and sternly!
Upon hearing the Vice-Chancellor speak up, one of the directors stood and accused Ye Feng, "Vice-Chancellor Wang is right! Ye Feng, you have no sense of time, making so many people wait for you, you're showing contempt for the school and the board!"
"Exactly! A student who is late even to his own school board hearing, it's easy to imagine what his daily conduct is like. I suggest that we should expel such a student directly!"
"I agree! Within the school, we should weed out such thorny students to avoid tarnishing the image of Jiangnan University!"
…
With many of the directors not having heard Ye Feng's defense, they had already made their attitudes clear at this moment.
Seeing this scene, Jiang Ying and Shu Yuehua's expressions became even grimmer, feeling that Ye Feng was indeed in dire straits this time!
Yet, Ye Feng ignored the directors' reproaching words and scanned the crowd of students and teachers, spotting a few familiar faces.
"Boss, we support you!"
"Boss, you can do it!"
Ling Shaofeng and the other two had skipped class and come specifically to hear Ye Feng's defense and cheer him on.
Ye Feng, upon seeing these three guys, felt a touch of emotion and nodded at them with a smile.
Apart from Ling Shaofeng and the others, Professor Fei Shen had also come, currently nodding at Ye Feng with a full face of concern.
Besides them, Ye Feng also noticed in the crowd Jiang Yiran with a face full of bitterness and Nangong Meili with a face filled with playful malice.
Jiang Yiran, ever since he had been humiliated by Ye Feng at the Taekwondo gym, was both afraid and resentful towards him and had also skipped class to see how this fellow would get expelled.
However, aside from them, what attracted Ye Feng's attention the most was a fragile figure in the corner of the stage.
She was a young girl with long hair cascading over her shoulders, her figure slender as a willow, looking slightly malnourished. She emitted a faint, graceful aura that also gave off a sense of ethereality.
However, the girl's face was mostly covered by a large wine-red birthmark, giving her a rather fierce appearance; likewise, everyone who looked at her did so with scorn and disgust.
Chouchou!
"Why is Chouchou here?" Ye Feng was surprised, knowing that Chouchou had class this morning and should have been in the classroom.
Chouchou also saw Ye Feng, and a smile spread across her lips, her phoenix eyes filled with tenderness.
"Alright, everyone quiet down!"
At that moment, School President Luo Zhiyuan frowned upon hearing the noise downstairs, and then spoke up indifferently.
As Luo Zhiyuan's words resonated, the hall slowly became quiet, and everyone knew that the board meeting was about to start.
"Principal Jiang and Teacher Shu, please find seats as well. Ye Feng, come up to the stage!" Luo Zhiyuan then said to Ye Feng.
Ye Feng, hearing this, nodded to Jiang Ying and Shu Yuehua and walked straight up to the stage to stand with Chouchou.
"Very well! Now that Ye Feng has arrived, the board meeting will officially commence!"
Luo Zhiyuan then looked meaningfully at Ye Feng before speaking to the crowd, "What has happened with Ye Feng is widely known, and this matter has had a very negative impact on our university. The board's initial solution to this issue was to expel both Ye Feng and Wang Chouchou. However, the school's mission is to educate and nurture, and now we will give Ye Feng and Wang Chouchou a chance to defend themselves. The board will make its final decision based on their defenses!"
