Chapter 1140: Ridiculous
Jiang Hai, on the other hand, naturally did not remain indifferent to this matter, but he was always worried about Yue Qingqing's connection with Zhou Yiran, so he dared not act rashly.
After finally using various contacts in the school to find out clearly, the person who made the move was a young man.
Apparently, he is the boyfriend of a girl in Yue Qingqing's dormitory.
It actually had little to do with Yue Qingqing herself.
Knowing this, Jiang Hai breathed a sigh of relief.
Yet he found that the best time to handle the matter had already passed.
The student council members were also in heated discussions, and those involved in this incident were living in constant fear.
However, there were also some who felt reassured by luck, thinking that since it involved the school's reputation, the school would handle it cautiously and might even cover it up for them proactively.
Jiang Hai and other core members of the student council, whose families were wealthy and influential, also thought of using their connections to manage the situation.
However, the school authorities' thunderous wrath was more terrifying than they had imagined.
The school quickly announced a thorough investigation into the matter and had clear names in hand.
They identified all the students with obvious problems in their usual scores.
And the teaching assistants responsible for grading were all severely reprimanded without exception.
This would be documented in their records and could be seen by employers.
Everyone was anxious now.
Those relying on the belief that too many would not be punished lost their luck completely.
Jiang Hai was overwhelmed with calls, and finally went to see the principal.
"Principal Cai, I understand that this matter has indeed had a great impact, but not all of these scores are due to the student council. As teaching assistants, grading inherently contains subjectivity, and some students indeed had violations, so it was reasonable to deduct their usual scores. But isn't it unreasonable to treat everyone the same way now?"
The principal did not speak, and Jiang Hai grew increasingly anxious.
"If the punishment is too severe this time, how can student council members continue to work for the school? How will they take the risk of being severely reprimanded to be teaching assistants? Will teachers have to take their own attendance and grade their assignments from now on?"
Seeing Jiang Hai become more and more enthusiastic, the principal finally snorted.
"Jiang Hai, are you threatening me?"
Jiang Hai was taken aback, "You've misunderstood, what I mean is..."
"What you mean is that the school can't run without your student council? That all teachers have to rely on you to teach?"
The principal looked at Jiang Hai, who was stubbornly unaware, and was truly angry.
"We encourage students to manage themselves to improve their organizational ability, and also because we believe communication is better among students. But it's not for you to wield undue authority and make the school a mess!"
"This matter is not over yet. We are currently verifying with staff from each department. If any student council managers are found to have been involved in this matter or benefited from it, they will also be reprimanded."
Jiang Hai took a deep breath, "Principal, we were indeed at fault in this case, but the student council has contributed a lot to the school over the years. Even if there is no merit, there is hard work. Isn't the school's reaction a bit disheartening?"
The principal was so angry he laughed.
"Everyone understands that mistakes have consequences. Don't you? Ordinary students face punishment for wrongdoing, and the same applies to the student council! You are placing yourselves in a privileged position, as if you have some sort of immunity. Don't you find it ridiculous?"
"Jiang Hai, I know about your situation. I heard your girlfriend was also the top GPA scorer in the entire department this time? Don't you feel guilty for such a number one?"
