"Teacher Lin, don't speak too soon. Just because soone has a bad attitude, it doesn't necessarily an it's Ge Dongxu's fault. What if Secretary-General Sun was in the wrong first? Do we not allow Ge Dongxu to protest then?" Wu Yili, seeing that Teacher Lin was clearly biased because of Sun Yuncheng's position, couldn't help but glare at him with displeasure and said.
Teacher Lin was imdiately at a loss for words.
No way, Secretary-General Sun had said as much, wasn't Professor Wu's statent tantamount to openly doubting his character and slapping him in the face?
"Professor Wu, what do you an by that? Please clarify, I am a parent, the Secretary-General of the Jinzhou City governnt, do you think I would bully a college student for no reason?" Sun Yuncheng was also angered upon hearing this, and his face turned the color of iron as he spoke.
"There is no rule stating that the Secretary-General of the city governnt can never make mistakes. Since you said it was Ge Dongxu who confronted you with a bad attitude, may I ask for the specifics of the situation? If it truly is Ge Dongxu's fault, I will definitely call him over to apologize to you in person. But if it is due to your prejudice, or even because you were swayed by what your son said, leading to this conflict, then I am sorry, as a teacher, I will not allow anyone to slander my students." Wu Yili's pretty face turned frosty as she confronted him directly.
That simple smile, those deep and clear black eyes, Wu Yili would never forget them in her lifeti.
How could Wu Yili possibly choose to believe Sun Yuncheng over Ge Dongxu based on Sun's baseless words?
Even if Sun Yuncheng was the Secretary-General of the Jinzhou City governnt, it was useless!
"You, Professor Wu, if you're going to protect your student like this, I have nothing more to say!" Sun Yuncheng didn't expect that even after speaking to this point, Wu Yili would still stand her ground against him, which left him feeling both angry and anxious.
However, if he truly explained the matter, not only could he not prove Ge Dongxu had a bad attitude, but it would also make him, Sun Yuncheng, appear petty, complaining to a teacher over a trivial matter and trying to rectify Ge Dongxu.
Of course, Sun Yuncheng could also fabricate things, but the problem was that this matter wasn't solely between him and Ge Dongxu—others like Lu Ming were also present, and with Wu Yili's attitude, calling them all in for verification later would only embarrass him, Sun Yuncheng!
"Secretary-General Sun, as a teacher if I don't protect my students, who will? If this incident happened to Sun Wenjun, I would protect him just the sa. Of course, that's provided he truly is a good student," Wu Yili said coldly, her face growing even more icy.
As sharp as Wu Yili was, Sun Yuncheng's statent of having nothing more to say already said everything, which infuriated her greatly.
Ge Dongxu was just a student from a mountainous area—if she didn't know him well, she couldn't imagine what consequences would await Ge Dongxu because of Sun Yuncheng's words today.
"Secretary-General Sun, Professor Wu, I think a severe warning is unnecessary here, but Ge Dongxu's disrespect to his elders is still wrong. I'll speak to Ge Dongxu later and tell him to be mindful next ti," Teacher Lin, as the horoom teacher, felt compelled to diate between Secretary-General Sun and Professor Wu as they argued.
"Being a person is just like conducting scientific research, what is true is true, what is not is not. If it is Ge Dongxu's fault, as his teacher, I have the responsibility to correct him and make him apologize. But if he's not at fault, why should we bla him? That's unfair to him and will have a very negative impact on our students' education," Wu Yili directly refuted Teacher Lin's peacemaking approach.
Sun Yuncheng had been hoping to climb down using Teacher Lin's ladder, but Wu Yili gave him absolutely no face, turning his cheeks from green to red with anger until he felt like his lungs were going to explode.
It just so happened that Wu Yili was a university professor, and what's more, she was his son's university professor. He had no authority over her and, because of his son, was, in so ways, in need of her favor. This left him with no outlet for his rage, even though he felt like exploding.
Seeing Sun Yuncheng's face turn from green to red, unable to utter a word, it wasn't just Wu Yili who had already confird her suspicions—both head teachers of Environntal Chemistry Classes 1 and 2 had also co to understand the situation and couldn't help but privately disdain Sun Yuncheng's character.
However, they were all young teachers with no background or much experience, and even if they wanted to take on so local projects in the future, they wouldn't do without the help of Sun Yuncheng, the Secretary-General of Jinzhou City's governnt. So, although they disdained him internally, they didn't show it on the surface, let alone speak of it.
But Wu Yili was different. Ge Dongxu was her life-saving benefactor and now her student, and there was Sun Yuncheng, blatantly slandering him. How could she tolerate that? Seeing that Sun Yuncheng wouldn't speak, she stood up directly and said, "Thank you for the al, Secretary-General Sun, but I must leave now due to prior engagents."
Without heeding the head teachers' attempts to keep her there, Wu Yili walked away.
"Secretary-General Sun, please don't mind. Professor Wu's temper is just like that, once she's set on sothing, she wouldn't even give face to the dean." Seeing Wu Yili leave in anger, the two head teachers felt uncomfortable all over and worried that Sun Yuncheng wouldn't be able to save face, so they quickly tried to smooth things over.
"It's normal for soone who's returned from overseas, and is a professor, to have a bit of temperant, perfectly normal," Sun Yuncheng said with a bitter smile, taking the opportunity to step down.
"What 'normal'? Teacher Wu is just especially good to Ge Dongxu." Sun Wenjun had already been burning with jealousy seeing Wu Yili defend Ge Dongxu again and again, but he hadn't dared to speak up before. Now that she had left, he couldn't help but complain resentfully.
"Sun Wenjun, you can't talk nonsense like that!" As soon as Sun Wenjun blurted that out, the head teachers of Environntal Chemistry Class 1 and 2 imdiately changed their expressions and scolded him severely.
"I wasn't talking nonsense..." Sun Wenjun, relying on his father being there, retorted unwillingly upon hearing this.
"Shut your mouth!" Sun Yuncheng, as the Secretary-General of Jinzhou City's governnt, could still discern the gravity of the situation and seeing his son still stubbornly back-talking, he glared at him fiercely and scolded.
At the sa ti, he inwardly blad his son for not having inford him earlier about this matter. If he had known earlier about the close relationship between Ge Dongxu and Wu Yili, he certainly wouldn't have brought up the topic of dealing with Ge Dongxu.
Seeing his father angry, Sun Wenjun could only lower his head and dared not speak out of turn anymore.
...
"Eh, isn't that Teacher Wu?" Inside the hall, as Ge Dongxu and the others were dining, Li Chenyu, who was facing the private room area, spotted Wu Yili coming out, his eyes lighting up instantly, and he said with surprise and delight.
While Ge Dongxu and the rest were eating, the sight of Wu Yili erging from the private room area caused their faces to light up with happiness.
"Teacher Wu? Where?" Lv Semi-Immortal imdiately turned his head with shining eyes towards the private room area. Spotting Wu Yili indeed coming out from there, he stood up imdiately and waved toward her, calling out, "Teacher Wu, Teacher Wu!"
