66 Disputes
In the principal’s office, as one of the insiders, the principal naturally knew that the two students had been wronged. However, he did not expect that the rumors would become so exaggerated in just one day.
He had just been discussing with the vice principal how to deal with this matter when the parent committee Chairman called and asked him to give a reasonable explanation.
“How come even the parent committee is involved?” The principal had a headache.
“They’re also worried that Mingcheng’s reputation will drop and affect their children’s studies.”
The vice-principal suggested,
“Why don’t we make a public announcement to clarify things?”
“I’m afraid that this alone is not convincing enough.” The principal muttered to himself.
As for the students, as long as Le Wan and Zhai Jing came to school, the rumors would slowly die down. However, there were many nitpicking people in the parent committee. Moreover, the stories were spreading too quickly. He was even more afraid that someone would deliberately spread it. It would be troublesome if it spread on a large scale.
“We have two main tasks now. One is to find out the source of this rumor, and the other is to contact the police and see if we can get any useful information.”
The vice-principal nodded.
“I’ll contact the administrator first to clear the posts on the campus network.”
The principal was about to contact the Public Security Bureau, but just as he picked up his phone, the security room called the secretary, saying that the police officer from the previous day had come again.
The principal’s eyebrows twitched.
“What’s the matter now? Didn’t they say that the case had already been solved?”
“He said that he’s here to give student Le Wan the certificate of bravery,” the Secretary replied.
The principal was overjoyed. “Quick, quick, quick. Please come in.”
Although he didn’t know when this student Le Wan had done a good deed again, the timing of his delivering the medal was just like someone delivering a pillow after a nap.
It was officer Xing and the other man who came to deliver the medal.
Early this morning, he received a call from Zhai Jing, who said that Le Wan had been criticized in school because he was taken away by the police in public yesterday. Zhai Jing asked him if there was any way to eliminate this negative impact.
It just so happened that the Medal of Bravery that they applied for on behalf of Le Wan had been approved, so officer Xing made a special trip here.
On the other hand, Le Wan, who was focused on her revision and paid no attention to the outside world, was pulled away by Feng Ying, who suddenly appeared.
“What’s wrong?” Le Wan was still holding a pen in her hand when she was dragged down the stairs.
“Yin Huai is fighting with someone down there!” Feng Ying explained to her as she pulled her along.
When Le Wan heard this, she immediately took the initiative and quickened her pace. The two of them hurried down the stairs and saw Yin Huai and a boy rolling on the ground under the shade of a tree. The two of them punched each other and were exchanging blows.
The people around them were all cheering blindly, and no one stopped them.
Feng Ying was a petite and cute girl. She didn’t have much strength, and she couldn’t pull the two boys away by herself. Just as she was anxious, she saw a gardener watering the trees with a water pipe in the flower bed next to her.
An idea came to Le Wan’s mind. She ran over and snatched the water pipe from his hand. She held the pipe’s muzzle and shot it at the boys who were fighting. The two boys were drenched in cold water and could not be bothered with the fight anymore. They turned their heads and glared at the person who had shot the water at them.
“Le Wan, what the f*ck are you doing?!”
Gu Shan, who was pressed under the water, rolled on the ground again because he was wet. His white school uniform looked as if he had rolled in a quagmire.
He shot Le Wan a very nasty look.
“What, you want to fight two against one?”
“Pei Pei Pei!” Yin Huai spat out the water in his mouth. Seeing Le Wan’s face as dark as the clouds in the sky, he shrank back.
“Boss, why are you here?”
“If I didn’t come, how could I have seen your valiant and heroic bearing?” He actually dared to fight in school. He was getting more and more confident.
When this matter was brought up, Le Xuan was angry!
“Boss, it’s Gu Shan. He’s a man and a gossip. He’s talking bad about you and spreading rumors!”
Gu Shan was unconvinced.
“Why? she has the face to do those things, but she doesn’t allow others to say it?”
“Pfft, if my boss really killed someone, would she still be standing here with you drenched in water?” Le Xuan replied.
Gu Shan sneered.
“Who doesn’t know that she’s the Le family’s little princess? Even if she breaks the heavens, the Le family will find a way to get her out!”
