“Shi Wei, can’t you speak more openly? You’ve been beating around the bush and spoke ambiguously. I get goosebumps when I hear it.”
Han Zhengxiu rubbed his arm and shivered.
Shi Wei rolled her eyes. She didn’t like Han Zhengxiu, so there was no need to give him a good look.
“Han Zhengxiu, this has nothing to do with you, to begin with. What’s the point of you being shameless here? Besides, you don’t know about the wallet stealing incident and robbery. What right do you have to spout nonsense?”
“Heh, it has nothing to do with me. Don’t tell me it has something to do with you? Don’t think that I don’t know about your schemes. Do you really think that you are the empress of the harem? Treating this place as the imperial palace.
“You said that Gu Qingchen stole your wallet. Where’s the evidence?
“You said that she was a robber. Where’s the evidence?
“If she was a robber, she would have been in the police station by now. Would she still be standing here?
“Please use your brain. Otherwise, I would think that you have a watermelon on your neck because your head is so swollen!
“No, I can’t say that. This is an insult to the watermelon.”
Shi Wei was looking for trouble when she tried to smart mouth with Han Zhengxiu. He was very eloquent.
Gu Qingchen knew this. In the future, Gu Qingchen often saw Han Zhengxiu on legal programs. He was the most famous and youngest gold-medal lawyer in Country Z.
Many rich and powerful people looked for him to represent them. Many large companies invited him to be a legal consultant because of his mouth. He was definitely a clever and eloquent speaker who was also good at arguing.
Shi Wei’s expression changed again and again after being countered by Han Zhengxiu. She widened her eyes and bit her lips angrily. In the end, she did not look at Han Zhengxiu. Instead, she gave Liu Ying a look.
Since Liu Ying had taken money from her family and her father had helped Liu Ying so much to get her to the position of the headteacher, Liu Ying had to listen to her.
In Shi Wei’s eyes, Liu Ying was not a teacher, but a servant raised by her family or even a dog.
Liu Wei saw Shi Wei’s gaze and pondered for a long time. She first looked at Han Zhengxiu and said, “Han Zhengxiu, you can return to the classroom first. There’s nothing for you to do here.”
Liu Ying said firmly, even with a hint of warning. Han Zhengxiu’s situation was also very awkward. His mother was sick in bed, and his father had died young. He often took leave because he had to take care of his mother.
Although the school would give him some convenience, in the end, it was still Liu Ying who approved of his leave.
If he went against Liu Ying, it would be difficult for him to take leave in the future. He did not want to be expelled because he skipped class. In the end, he could only look at Gu Qingchen apologetically and left a little unwillingly.
Gu Qingchen did not think that Han Zhengxiu was unloyal. She had learned about Han Zhengxiu’s mother’s situation in the television interviews in the future. Only then did she know why Han Zhengxiu always took leave.
Gu Qingchen knew what kind of person Liu Ying was. She knew Han Zhengxiu’s difficulties very well.
Han Zhengxiu left. Only Gu Qingchen and the three women who were on the same side remained in the office.
“Gu Qingchen, how many times have you caused trouble? Do the math yourself. You can’t be let off easily every time something happens. I won’t hold you responsible for what happened in the past. Today, you actually fought openly with your classmates in the classroom and even injured the teacher. Such bad behavior can be reported and criticized, and you can be directly expelled.”
Taking money from others to help them get rid of trouble.
Liu Ying did a good job on this point.
She was also skilled at twisting the truth.
Shi Wei also began to add fuel to the fire. “It will be easy on her if she were to be expelled. She stole and robbed. She should be taken out and executed.”
Gu Qingchen chuckled and stood there with a straight posture. First, she glanced at Liu Ying. “Ms. Liu, you shouldn’t say this to me, but to the culprit who hurt you.
Could it be… that Ms. Liu you’ve hit your head and lost consciousness?”
At this moment, Gu Qingchen’s eyes were bright, and her body exuded an inviolable aura. After all, Gu Qingchen used to be the daughter of a rich businessman. Deep down, Liu Ying was still afraid of Gu Qingchen.
The reason why she was treating Gu Qingchen like this was all because of Shi Wei. Liu Ying felt a little uncertain when she suddenly saw Gu Qingchen who was so domineering.
Gu Qingchen then looked at Shi Wei and smiled bitterly. “As for you… I paid back the five million that I owe the Shi family yesterday. At that time, many people with status in society could prove it. As for you being robbed, what has it got to do with me.
Don’t forget, Officer Liang also came to me to understand the situation. There are still people who can prove my innocence.
You instigated her to carry out personal attacks on me. As the amount involved is huge, I can sue you for violating Article 246 of the Criminal Law of defamation.
Oh, based on your legal illiteracy, I think it’s necessary to educate you about this. Those who commit this crime are generally sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not more than three years, criminal detention, control or deprivation of political rights.”
The reason Gu Qingchen knew about this was that she had seen Han Zhengxiu’s legal program on television. Now that she thought about it, it was just right for this purpose.
She did not expect it to be very effective, and Shi Wei was immediately stunned.
If it was in the past, Shi Wei might not have been afraid. But yesterday, after she left the hospital, she was called to the police station. Seeing the prisoners and the authority of the police station, she was afraid of that place from the bottom of her heart.
As for Wang Meili, who was listening at the side in a daze, Gu Qingchen directly ignored her.
Before the others could react, Gu Qingchen walked to Liu Ying’s side and lowered her body to whisper into her ear.
“Ms. Liu, don’t you think it’s a little early to bet on the treasure? Be careful… you’ll lose everything.”
That soft tone didn’t seem intimidating, but when Liu Ying heard it, she felt a chill down her spine.
Gu Qingchen… what did she mean?
Could it be that Gu Qingchen saw something and knew that she was targeting Gu Qingchen because she had bet on Shi Wei?
Impossible! How was that possible.
Even if she was biased towards Shi Wei, in the eyes of outsiders, it was normal. Who would have thought that Shi Wei’s father would give her gifts, money, and even arrange for her promotion?
Liu Ying thought that these things were done quietly, and no one knew about it, so how could Gu Qingchen possibly know about it.
Seeing Liu Ying’s expression changed, a hint of disdain flashed across Gu Qingchen’s eyes.
With such a poor mental fortitude, she dared to extend her hand so far. She was really daring.
“Ms. Liu, do you really think that those things were done flawlessly? Hehe, I’ll give you a piece of information for free. Shi Tian has the habit of keeping accounts, and… every single note is very detailed. In fact… some of the money is even in consecutive numbers. The specific numbers are also recorded.”
What?
Shi Tian actually recorded all of it down, and the money was even in consecutive numbers!
If the matter were to be exposed, he would be able to catch it accurately!
Liu Ying’s face turned completely black, but the voice beside her ears didn’t stop.
“Oh, I almost forgot, there is another important piece of news that I haven’t told you…”
