Chapter 461: Complaint 1
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
When Ye Lengan entered the principal’s office and saw the person seated inside, she understood why the principal had summoned her.
At that moment, Zheng Anyang was in his chair, wearing a slightly impatient expression as he glanced at the person sitting across from him. However, he felt somewhat powerless in this situation.
In reality, if this wasn’t his own office, he would have preferred to avoid the situation altogether and not deal with the person before him. He recalled that the last time, it was also Ye Xiyuan’s parents who had come to file a complaint.
Initially, he had a favorable impression of Ye Xiyuan. She had good academic performance and was modest in her demeanor. However, during the recent Mathematical Olympiad class, Ye Xiyuan didn’t participate at all, nor did she request leave. Consequently, the results of the competition were plain for all to see.
Now, it was once again due to Ye Xiyuan that her parents had come to complain. Unfortunately, the key person involved was absent, which left him in a difficult position. Moreover, Ye Xiyuan’s parents appeared quite arrogant, as if it were a privilege for their daughter to attend this school. It was truly trying.
“Principal, did you have something to talk to me?”
Even though she could clearly discern the situation, Ye Lengan didn’t spare a glance at Lin Wanqin and Li Deze. Instead, she walked directly to Zheng Anyangs desk.
Zheng Anyangs expression remained unchanged, and his tone was matter-of-fact as if he were simply narrating a fact without any reproach.
“This is Ye Xiyuan’s mother, and she has come to say that you hit Ye Xiyuan.”
“Oh,” Ye Lengan responded indifferently and didn’t say anything more.
“Ye Lengan, don’t attempt to evade responsibility.” Seeing Ye Leng’an’s nonchalant attitude, Lin Wanqin couldn’t suppress her anger. She promptly stood up, went over to Ye Lengan, and launched a barrage of accusations. “Deze is a witness, and you admitted that you hit Xiyuan yourself. Don’t think you can get away with it.”
Upon finishing her statement, she turned to Zheng Anyang and spoke rapidly as if firing off a string of bullets. “Principal Zheng, you mustn’t favor Ye
Lengan just because she excels academically. You should know that Xiyuan’s academic performance is also quite good.”
When discussing Ye Xiyuan, Lin Wanqin couldn’t help but hold her head high, her pride unapologetically displayed. In her view, Xiyuan was exceptional, and the recent failure to secure a place in the Mathematical Olympiad was but a momentary setback.
“Mrs. Ye.” In response to Lin Wanqin’s accusations, Zheng Anyangs eyes darkened. ‘You need not worry. If what you say is true, I will naturally handle it impartially. However, before taking any action, I must first understand the details of the matter.’
“Principal Zheng, are you attempting to shield Ye Lengan?” Lin Wanqin saw Zheng Anyangs words as a pretext. “If you can’t handle this matter fairly, I won’t let it rest. Even if it means lodging a complaint with the Education Bureau, I’ll do so.’
“Mrs. Ye, I haven’t had the chance to take any action, and you already assume that I’ll be biased, is that it?” Zheng Anyang looked at Lin Wanqin with a sharp gaze. “If you’re so concerned about my handling of this matter, you should have gone directly to the Education Bureau or the police, rather than coming to me.”
Lin Wanqin wanted to say more, but Li Deze held her back.
“Auntie, please don’t worry.” Li Deze hurriedly restrained Lin Wanqin. “You should trust the principal; he will certainly handle it fairly.”

Lin Wanqin couldn’t discern it, but Li Deze could clearly see that the principal’s expression was far from good. If this continued, offending the principal was inevitable. Not to mention whether Ye Lengan would be held accountable, the days of both him and Xiyuan at the school would undoubtedly be challenging.
Ignoring Lin Wanqin and Li Deze, Zheng Anyang turned his attention to Ye
Lengan and asked, “So, Ye Lengan, do you have anything to say?”
“l did slap Ye Xiyuan.” Ye Lengan nodded and replied, “However, it was Ye Xiyuan who initiated the physical contact. I was just defending myself. If you consider it, this could be seen as self-defense!”
“You’re lying. Xiyuan would never do such a thing.” Upon hearing Ye Leng’an’s words, Lin Wanqin couldn’t contain herself any longer. “During ordinary times, our Xiyuan wouldn’t even harm a single ant, let alone resort to violence. Ye Lengan, you’re spouting nonsense. You’re trying to defame Xiyuan to absolve yourself of blame..”
