Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio  Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Lu Xiaochuan quickly came to his senses. He knew what had just happened, but he couldn’t resist the urge to tell the truth. Now that everything was out in the open, he had no way to go back on his word. He just didn’t know why he suddenly wanted to tell the truth.

But things had already happened, he could not change his word anymore, so he could only ask Principal Lu for help, “Principal, you must save our family. I didn’t listen to director Jiang today. He will definitely make a move on my family. I don’t want to see my father go to jail.”

With Lu Xiaochuan’s urgent plea, Principal Lu and the other teachers believed Lu Xiaochuan’s words even more.

“Lu Xiaochuan, don’t worry. Our Hongfeng also has some experience in dealing with such cases. If your family really owes money to the Jiang family, you can make an application to the school. The school will sponsor you and help you repay the debt in advance.”

Hongfeng had always spared no effort in dealing with such cases. This was also one of the reasons why so many students who had left Hongfeng were loyal to Hongfeng.

Jiang Yi stood there and felt that the situation was not good. He had to think of a way. It seemed that after he returned, he would discuss with his younger brother Jiang Zhong to see how he could resolve this matter.

Since Principal Lu had removed his position so easily, he had no need to respect him. Jiang Yi turned around and was about to leave.

“Wait.”

Just as Jiang Yi was about to step out of the room, Gu Qingchen opened her mouth to stop Jiang Yi from leaving.

Jiang Yi was already holding back his anger. When he heard Gu Qingchen’s voice, he wanted to strangle her to death. He turned around and glared at Gu Qingchen. “Gu Qingchen, do you really think that you can order me around just because you’ve hooked up with Young Master Rong?”

Jiang Yi was not afraid of Gu Qingchen. He was only afraid of Young Master Rong, who was behind Gu Qingchen. He did not want to have a direct conflict with Gu Qingchen before he knew about the relationship between Gu Qingchen and Young Master Rong.

However, he had even been removed from his position as director by Principal Lu. He was in rage, so why would he care so much.

Gu Qingchen did not care about Jiang Yi’s anger. She stood there like a queen, “Director Jiang Yi was very busy on the day of the performance. I think he did not have time to drug a student. What I want to know is, who did Director Jiang give the drug to and who did it?”

Jiang Yi was so angry that he laughed. Gu Qingchen seemed to be the only one in his eyes. “Hehe, do you think I will tell you? Dream on!”

Gu Qingchen curled her lips slightly and her eyes flashed. “Oh? It seems that this matter really has something to do with you, Director Jiang. Don’t worry. We will know who did it very soon.”

Only then did Jiang Yi realize that he had said the wrong thing. This was definitely an indirect admission that the drugging incident had something to do with him.

All the teachers looked at Jiang Yi with a look of realization. Jiang Yi did not care about anything else and turned around to leave the office. He could not stay here any longer.

Principal Lu did not stop Jiang Yi. If they investigated thoroughly, Principal Lu would also know where to find Jiang Yi.

Gu Qingchen’s mission was completed. On her way back to the classroom, she met An Ge. An Ge had been pacing around anxiously, looking very uneasy.

When he saw Gu Qingchen coming out of the office, he was stunned for a moment, then walked up. “Gu Qingchen, what’s going on inside?”

An Ge couldn’t care less about his bad relationship with Gu Qingchen, so he took the initiative to ask.

Gu Qingchen suddenly felt that it was funny. An Ge’s skin was really as thick as a city wall.

“Director Jiang Yi has been dismissed from the position of director because he was the one who provided the drug that caused Guo Yuxuan’s illness.”

Boom!

An Ge almost lost his balance. He staggered a few times before he finally stopped, “What… What did you say? Director Jiang Yi was dismissed? He admitted that he was the one who provided the drug? How… How is this possible? Why is this happening?”

An Ge’s mind was in a mess. Jiang Yi was his last resort. If Jiang Yi was really fired, the school would find out sooner or later that he was the one who drugged Guo Yuxuan.

Gu Qingchen seemed to appreciate An Ge’s dejected look, so she continued to provoke him. “That’s right. Not only was Jiang Yi dismissed, but he might also be fired next. He might even have to face a lawsuit.”

Every time Gu Qingchen said something, An Ge would take a step back. There was no focus in his eyes anymore, and he no longer had his usual elegance. He looked very down and out.

“Of course, this matter is not only related to Jiang Yi. He only provided the drug. The person who drugged Guo Yuxuan will probably end up even worse.”

Gu Qingchen’s voice was like a cold chill, drilling into the back of An Ge’s spine. An Ge felt his entire body freeze, and his mind was filled with Gu Qingchen’s words.

Jiang Yi, as the director, had already received such a heavy punishment. He was only a student. If Jiang Yi gave him up, what would he do?

Previously, he still had leverage to threaten Jiang Yi to protect him. Now that Jiang Yi had been exposed, he also had no leverage. What should he do? What should he do?

Even if Gu Qingchen did not need to read his mind, she knew that An Ge was definitely worried about what he should do.

“An Ge, you’re so concerned about this matter and even paid special attention to Director Jiang Yi. It seems like you have a good relationship with Director Jiang Yi.”

A sentence that was meaningful and thought-provoking.

An Ge was already feeling guilty. After hearing Gu Qingchen’s words, he was like a rooster that had its hair standing on end. “Don’t talk nonsense. This matter has nothing to do with me!”

Gu Qingchen chuckled. “Oh? is that so…”

Every time An Ge heard Gu Qingchen speak in such a tone, he felt as if Gu Qingchen had seen through him completely. In front of Gu Qingchen, it was like there was no way to keep any secrets. It was the same last time, and it was even worse this time!

“Of… Of course!”

He did not have any confidence at all. Even he himself could not believe what he said.

Gu Qingchen just smiled and narrowed her eyes. After a while, when An Ge felt like he was about to explode from Gu Qingchen’s stare, Gu Qingchen said slowly, “I hope you really have nothing to do with this. Then… I wish you good luck!”

After saying that, Gu Qingchen walked past An Ge. When she passed by An Ge, she glanced at him with disdain, as if An Ge was some kind of lowlife.

An Ge was deeply provoked. He had always been an outstanding elite in the eyes of others. However, when he came to Gu Qingchen, he felt that he was even inferior to the dirt on the ground. He could not ignore Gu Qingchen’s arrogant attitude towards him.

An Ge looked at Gu Qingchen’s back and clenched his fists tightly. His eyes were gloomy. “Gu Qingchen, just you wait. One day, you will come and beg me!”

An Ge was very ambitious, but he had no chance. It was not easy for him to arrive at Hongfeng School. He did not want to leave like this. No matter what method he used, he had to stay here!

Even if he really could not stay here in the end, he had to find a good way out first. He could not come to Hongfeng for nothing.

The people that Principal Lu had sent out had already begun to investigate. Jiang Yi hurriedly returned home and discussed with Jiang Zhong what countermeasures he had.
