Chapter 2187 - 2388: I Am Not Wrong!!!

She turned serious and said, "Let's not ramble. Do you know who Gu Peng's parents are? You know you've hurt his son, and now he's lying in the hospital, his parents found out, you know!"

Actually, Hao Jian didn't hit Gu Peng very hard. Hao Jian knew he was just a student and controlled his strength well, at most causing him a little pain and a brief fainting spell, no serious after effects beyond superficial injuries.

However, what he didn't expect was such a trivial matter leading to hospitalization, and even less that Gu Peng's mother was a mother hen. Seeing her son was beaten and hospitalized, she was furious and immediately demanded the school expel Hao Jian.

Knowing the full story, Gu Peng's mother blamed Hao Jian, claiming he started the fight, and such students should not be allowed in school and should be expelled. Li Weiwei was unaware of this until she overheard it while delivering materials to the teaching office yesterday.

The incident happened last night, and originally angry at Hao Jian for skipping class, news of expulsion made her anxious.

Yawen isn't a public school, it's private, and Gu Peng's parents are major shareholders. If they apply for Hao Jian's expulsion, it's likely to happen.

Though she hasn't been at Yawen long, she knows what kind of person Gu Peng is. He abuses his power and commits various misdeeds, and because of his family, even the class teacher doesn't dare to punish him. Initially scolding him when he caused trouble, he made a call to his mom, who made a call to the principal, resulting in the teacher being scolded instead. Now, he turns a blind eye unless things escalate.

She's heard about Gu Peng's misconduct, like injuring classmates and breaking bones, yet if someone hurts him, they face expulsion.

This infuriates Li Weiwei, partly because Hao Jian has helped her a lot, and despite outwardly disliking him, she secretly admires him and doesn't want him expelled. Also, she detests Gu Peng; aside from the school authorities, every teacher fears and dislikes him.

So, she immediately informed Hao Jian.

To her surprise, Hao Jian shook his head indifferently and said, "I don't know."

His nonchalant attitude pissed her off, thinking she's worried while he's unfazed, akin to the eunuch worrying when the emperor doesn't, she retorted, "Don't know? Now that I've told you, aren't you even a bit anxious?"

Hao Jian still shook his head leisurely and said, "Not at all!"

This truly exasperated Li Weiwei, and without a word, she kicked him in the leg and said, "Then just wait to be expelled."

Hao Jian just smiled, saying, "Not necessarily, perhaps he doesn't have the capability."

Li Weiwei was dumbfounded, previously hearing him boast about having more money than he could ever spend, now claiming even the school's major shareholders can't expel him made her want to laugh, unsure whether Hao Jian was naive or childish.

"Alright, just leave." Feeling unable to communicate with Hao Jian further, she waved him off dismissively.

Hao Jian didn't argue, turning to leave. But Li Weiwei suddenly stopped him, "Wait."

"What now?" Hao Jian asked.

Li Weiwei seriously said, "Write a 3,000-word reflection for skipping class yesterday and another for Friday's issue, totaling 6,000 words. Submit it tonight."

She no longer expects much from Hao Jian but can't bear to see him expelled, hoping his reflection can be given to the principal to potentially mitigate the situation; it's all she can do now.

What she didn't know was Hao Jian's wealth claim was true and Gu Peng's parents expelling him was impossible. She thought he was joking, but he spoke the truth.

"Also, make Friday's reflection profound, acknowledge your mistakes deeply. That's all, go back now, remember to submit it tonight!" Li Weiwei said.

"Okay, fine." Hao Jian nodded, then headed outside and returned to the classroom.

As soon as he got back to the classroom, Hu Lai and Fatty leaned over, asking what Li Weiwei had done to him. He simply said it was nothing, just a lot of scolding, what else could there be? He certainly wouldn't reveal the conversation content to Hu Lai and Fatty, otherwise, it would betray Li Weiwei's good intentions.

Upon hearing this, Hu Lai and Fatty saw Hao Jian being called to the principal's office but still maintaining a calm demeanor. Immediately, they both showed looks of admiration and clasped their hands together.

"Brother, I'll count on you to look after me from now on," Hu Lai said with a smile.

Fatty followed along, saying, "Indeed, you're the big brother. Such courage truly earns my deepest respect."

Hao Jian couldn't be bothered with the two of them, saying, "Go, go, move aside, I have things to handle here."

Seeing the situation, Hu Lai and Fatty didn't bother Hao Jian any further and went off to their own activities. Hao Jian then took out some paper and spread it on his desk, picked up a pen, and secretly began writing the reflective essay Li Weiwei had instructed him to write.

A three thousand-word piece, two pieces totaling six thousand words. Hao Jian basically spent the entire morning writing the essays and did nothing else. After finishing, he threw aside his pen with a flourish, collected the two essays, and laid down on his desk to sleep.

While he slept, he even missed lunchtime, as he'd previously told them not to wake him, so no one called him to eat. When he woke up and opened his eyes, the fifth class had already started. Feeling a bit hungry, he looked up and found a bottle of milk on his desk, left by some unknown person, but it was definitely intended for him.

He didn't linger, picked up the milk and drank it, finishing the whole bottle in less than thirty seconds. Shortly afterward, class ended, and he prepared to take the essays he'd written in the morning to show Li Weiwei.

Walking into the office, there weren't many teachers present at that moment, aside from Li Weiwei and just one or two others. He went straight to Li Weiwei, placed the two essays on her desk. Li Weiwei glanced up, surprised to see Hao Jian delivering the essays already—she hadn't expected him to write two six-thousand-word essays so quickly, within just one morning.

She felt a sense of satisfaction, believing Hao Jian had a commendable attitude this time, and promptly picked up the essays to read. The first essay was about skipping class yesterday, which made her smile as she read—it was well-written, quite thoughtful, and promised not to skip again. But who can say for sure about the next time?

However, upon seeing the second essay—about Friday's fight with Gu Peng—her expression changed immediately. The essay simply read, "I'm not wrong," sprawling over many pages, totaling over three thousand words, with a thousand repetitions of "I'm not wrong."

Immediately, she was infuriated, picking up the essay and tossing it onto Hao Jian, angrily saying, "What is this? I asked you to write an essay, not thousands of 'I'm not wrong'."

Hao Jian picked up the essay from the floor, looking nonchalant, and said, "You asked me to write an essay; I wasn't wrong, so I wrote it like this."

Li Weiwei's commotion had been quite loud earlier, maybe due to an outburst she couldn't contain. Even though such scenes often occurred in the principal's office, when Li Weiwei threw the essay at Hao Jian, the teachers in the office couldn't help but look over.

Li Weiwei suddenly realized she may have been a bit too irritable, seeing Hao Jian's nonchalant demeanor she changed her tone: "You're not wrong? Then it's my fault, huh? You should know what I intended with this essay, how can I help you if you do this?"

Hao Jian shook his head, saying, "I can handle this myself, no need for you to worry."

Seeing that even now Hao Jian was jokingly showing off, Li Weiwei decided not to bother with him anymore, saying: "Alright, then handle it yourself."

Hao Jian nodded, agreed, and said, "Fine."

Suddenly switching to a cheeky grin, he leaned closer to Li Weiwei and asked: "By the way... has Aunt invited me over for dinner lately? I'm really craving it."

Fortunately, Hao Jian spoke in an exceptionally low voice; otherwise, had he said such things aloud in the office, Li Weiwei might have wanted him out of the picture.

Still, even with his low voice, she was somewhat irate from Hao Jian's abrupt change in tone, kicked him lightly, and whispered angrily: "Eat your head!"
