"Your file has been... voluntarily withdrawn."
Once the principal had finished his sentence, he t Shi Yaoguang’s mocking gaze.
He felt a montary guilt, but quickly composed himself.
"What I said is the truth!"
He sneakily glanced at Shi Yaoguang’s loudspeaker, feeling utterly drained.
Once he found out who had offended this little ancestor, he was determined to punish them severely!
Shi Yaoguang’s eyebrows rose slightly, and she laughed scornfully, "Voluntarily withdrawn? It seems the principal doesn’t know that I, the person who supposedly withdrew voluntarily, only found out I had been expelled when I was stopped at the school gates."
The principal felt embarrassed, of course he knew that it couldn’t have been Shi Yaoguang herself who had executed the withdrawal.
But...
He still wasn’t sure who was behind this.
As he puzzled over it, soone reminded him, "Principal, when the Shi Family sent her here, they made a donation of a building to the school. The Shi Family had the authority to make decisions..."
At this reminder, he suddenly rembered.
"Yes, yes, it might have been the Shi Family who did this!"
He said with full confidence, but then his voice weakened.
Even if it could have been the Shi Family, there was a good chance it wasn’t.
After all, Shi Yaoguang was specifically sent here by the Shi Family.
After going through so many procedures to enroll her, how could they possibly let her be expelled so suddenly now?
This obviously didn’t make sense.
Besides, the principal clearly understood Shi Yaoguang’s current status.
She was married to Quan Jinbei, of the Quan Family!
Quan Jinbei’s wife, wouldn’t the Shi Family curry favor with her?
In the principal’s mind, this problem had beco a deadlock.
"It... it might not be the Shi Family’s doing. Give a little ti, and I can find out very quickly..."
Before the principal could finish, Shi Yaoguang politely interrupted him, "Principal, I misunderstood you before."
The principal was taken aback.
What does she an?
How could she have misunderstood?
Only to hear her say: "It must be the Shi Family’s intention to have expelled."
"Ah?" The principal was dumbfounded, "Why would the Shi Family do such a thing?"
This was their own daughter, after all.
Who would treat their own daughter like this?
Shi Yaoguang let out a deep sigh, with a downcast tone: "They felt that I shouldn’t have made Nie Feng apologize to , and even pressured to apologize to the Nie Family."
"Unwilling to compromise, they wanted to cut off my future prospects."
As she spoke, she blinked rapidly, as if to hold back unbidden tears, "Perhaps in their eyes, my dignity is worth far less than the benefits of a good relationship with the Nie Family."
"Doesn’t the Shi Family know how to calculate?"
The principal blurted out a cynical remark, "The Nie Family is nothing compared to the Quan Family, right?"
Shi Yaoguang bowed her head, looking like a pitiful little figure, "To win over the Quan Family, they don’t necessarily need ."
"In their view, it’s better to rely on my sister than to bank on ."
"After all, my sister has beco the fiancée of Quan’s fourth young master, and may have a bright future. They don’t put at the top of their agenda, and that’s normal."
As Shi Yaoguang ca with a powerful charge, the principal felt a headache coming on.
She showed her weakness, and the principal couldn’t help but sympathize with her.
Oh, he’s also a pitiful child.
He’s been keeping an eye on the affairs of the Shi Family as well.
If you ask him, nothing is more important than his own biological daughter.
Even if he values the adopted daughter, he can’t just let her bully his biological daughter.
Isn’t this like stabbing soone in the heart?
While the principal felt indignant for Shi Yaoguang, he also made a covert decision.
That adopted daughter of the Shi Family is quite scheming, such people should not be closely associated with.
...
Shi Yaoguang’s expulsion from school was instigated by the Shi Family.
This news shocked the campus in no ti.
"The Shi Family is really despicable, aren’t they? Their own daughter suffers injustice, doesn’t seek help from her parents to get justice, takes a stand for righteousness herself, and still gets tripped up by her family. Could she have been picked up from the street?"
"The biological daughter they took halfway, how can she be as important as the riches and honor of the Shi Family? The reason the Shi Family did this must be to make a statent, right?"
"Shi Yaoguang asks Nie Feng to apologize to her, and the Shi Family makes her apologize to the Nie Family."
"Shi Yaoguang refuses to compromise, and the Shi Family cuts off her future, that’s real ruthlessness!"
"Heh, if the Shi Family had this kind of resolve in expanding their power, they would have advanced even further by now."
"The Shi Family does have resolve, but who knows if it’s used in the right way? Look how the Shi Family can’t wait to bow down and grovel to the Nie Family, as if they’re ready to kneel and lick their boots. Who knows, maybe all the Shi Family’s fortune today cos from such bootlicking."
The whole school was discussing it, and naturally, Shi Yiqing’s class was no exception.
Listening to her classmates belittle the Shi Family, Shi Yiqing felt her face burning with embarrassnt.
She really wanted to explain to her classmates that things weren’t as they thought.
But she was worried that her explanation not only wouldn’t dispel their doubts but might even backfire.
Her eyes reddened with anxiety, "Stop talking! The Shi Family isn’t like that at all. Our family’s business was built on my dad’s hard work and effort, not by... by groveling to others as you say!"
Without her piping up, nobody would have challenged her.
The mont she spoke up, imdiately, soone who disliked her retorted, "You say it’s not groveling, but you should provide so proof, shouldn’t you?"
Shi Yiqing rubbed her eyes and after a long while said, "The innocent are naturally clear of guilt. The Shi Family’s growth has been honorable and upright, and I disdain to explain to those unwilling to believe in the Shi Family!"
"Tsk," the girl who had spoken earlier laughed out loud, "The innocent are clear of guilt? I always thought seeing is believing!"
"Nie Feng bullied Shi Yaoguang, and her request for an apology was not at all unreasonable, right?"
"What’s going on with your Shi Family? Not only are they not supporting Shi Yaoguang, but they even forced her to apologize to the Nie Family. If this isn’t groveling, what is?"
"We were also doing it for our sister’s own good..." Shi Yiqing weakly defended, "She just ca back and still doesn’t understand a lot of things, she doesn’t even realize what kind of consequences making enemies with the Nie Family could bring."
"Being bullied and still having to worry about the consequences of provoking the Nie Family, doesn’t that seem like cowardice? The Shi Family beca cowards, so not only did they dare not support her, but they even got the school to expel her, as a way to show subservience to the Nie Family."
"Isn’t this bootlicking clear enough?"
Shi Yiqing was left speechless.
She wanted to explain, yet she found that even she didn’t believe her own words.
But if she didn’t explain, she would be stuck with the bla.
Thinking of the Shi Family’s reputation being ruined, she couldn’t help but feel regretful.
If only she had known things would turn out this way, she wouldn’t have tried to stand out.
If she had just let Nie Feng apologize to her directly, wouldn’t this matter have been resolved?
Now, the situation had progressed beyond her control.
As she was filled with regret, suddenly her phone’s email inbox received a ssage.
The subject was tempting.
It read: #I can help you disgrace Shi Yaoguang.#
