Ho-ho, Snitching Failed
“What? This really happened?!” After hearing the story Ye Feng told, the few strands of hair that Principal Wang called eyebrows knotted tightly with each other as he frowned.
Ye Feng nodded. Not forgetting to spice up the news, he added, “That’s right… We only intended on bringing this matter up to the principal’s office, putting the student’s name down for severe misconduct before reprimanding her for it. Who would’ve known that apart from being extremely uncooperative, she brought in her bodyguards to intimidate us in a bid to disrupt our work too?”
“Sir, I’m sure you’re aware of how rich and how precious the students in Wisdom are. How many of those among us don’t have bodyguards of our own? Yet, she disregarded the school rules and committed acts of violence on school grounds!”
Ye Feng’s excitement was uncontainable—he could not wait to receive praise and approval from Ruan Jiaojiao.
Even though Jiaojiao was a kind-hearted and innocent girl, he could see that she has experienced many hardships, enduring endless days of torture living with her elder sister—the tyrannical Ruan Mengmeng.
It was all Ye Feng needed to send him on this vendetta against Ruan Mengmeng. There was no way he would sit this out; he refused to standby and let Jiaojiao be bullied by Ruan Mengmeng.
He must utilize this opportunity to chase Ruan Mengmeng out of Wisdom Private Academy!
Principal Wang had always made it his mission to uphold Wisdom Academy’s flawless reputation. When he heard that Ruan Mengmeng brought her bodyguards to school, he felt nothing but excruciating suffocation.
Not to mention, the fatty, Jing Xiangjin, kept blowing up the story at the side.
The Ye and Jing families were two of the most prestigious families in all of S City. On the other hand, that student named Ruan Mengmeng? Based on what he gathered, she was just an unloved daughter from the Ruan family.
Ruan Mengmeng was the guilty one in the matter, and also one without a powerful family to support her. Needless to say, Principal Wang already had his verdict. No investigation needed.
“The audacity! I will never let a student like her remain in our school. All of you wait here, I’m going to give the Office of Academic Affairs a call. I’ll make them revoke Ruan Mengmeng’s status as a student.”
Ye Feng and Jing Xiangjin, along with two other members of the student council, exchanged smug glances with one another. A glint of satisfaction flashed across their eyes.
However, Li Xiuli, who stood at the side the whole time, had her eyebrows furrowed tightly against each other in worry.
She was already in Senior 3. Was it truly necessary for them to expel a student at this stage of their education?
…
Immediately after Principal Wang dialed for the Office of Academic Affairs via the internal phone line, the mobile phone that he left aside on the table started ringing.
He glanced at the phone screen. Immediately, his expression turned serious yet respectful.
“Yes. Yes, this is me… That’s right, that’s what happened… No, no, no, why would I do that? They’re all rumors. Yes. Alright. Yes, rest assured, I’ll handle this matter fairly… Yes, you’re right, sir. Wisdom shouldn’t slander any students at all. Yes, noted, I’ll do my best… I’ll make all the appropriate arrangements now.”
This single phone call from the school director himself sent cold sweat pouring out from Principal Wang’s every pore.
He never would have thought that a mere transfer student could trigger the usually laid-back school director into getting involved.
A polite smile was plastered across Principal Wang’s face. He used the most cautious and servile tone whilst speaking with the director.
After he hung up the phone, only then did he allow himself to heave a long sigh.
“Phew…” Principal Wang wiped off the cold sweat on his forehead. He could not help feeling a crippling fear amounting in his heart in the aftermath.
Good lord. He was that close to expelling Ruan Mengmeng!
Thankfully. Thankfully, he had yet to do anything.
Otherwise, he would not just lose his position as the principal—he might have offended whatever bigshot stood behind Ruan Mengmeng.
At that thought, Principal Wang raised his head to look at Ye Feng and the gang who were standing behind the office desk.
The school principal’s murky black eyes were filled with anger and resentment.
“Sir, the phone call just now…” Ye Feng could sense something went wrong, judging from Principal Wang’s facial expression.
However, it was obvious that Ruan Mengmeng was guilty here. Ye Feng could not think of anything that could turn the matter in their favor.
“Hmph, Ye Feng… I’m very disappointed in the student council! Miss Ruan has outstanding moral integrity and excellent academic performance. Her transfer from City No.1 High School is an honor to us at Wisdom! How dare you slander such an outstanding student?”
