Chapter 872: Settling the Score
When the sounds of discussion outside reached the room, the faces of the Jiang couple and the crying Jiang Shuyu turned extremely ugly.
Then, Jiang Shuyu exploded in anger. She yelled at the people outside, “Shut up, shut up! Who are you to talk about me?” Jiang Shuyu still didn’t forget to put on her airs as the eldest daughter of the Jiang family. “If you still want to continue studying at Imperial University, you better shut up!”
Her anger burned her rationality, causing her to threaten others in front of everyone.
The students outside the window were silent for a moment. Then, someone unwillingly chuckled, “Are you serious? Do you think the Jiang Family controls everything? Is this university owned by the Jiang Family?”
The person who said these words did not care about the Jiang family at all, especially after knowing what Jiang Shuyu did. This family was really too despicable.
The Jiang family had power and influence in the capital, but there were nearly ten thousand students in the entire capital university. Could the Jiang Family kick out every student?
“That’s right. If the capital university was really run by her family, with their family’s character, no matter how good this school is, I wouldn’t come here to study!”
“That’s right. We’re to study, not to serve the Jiang Family!”
Hearing the discussions of the students, president Li’s expression immediately turned ugly.
He shot a very serious look at Jiang Shuyu and said in a cold voice, “Student Jiang, this is the capital university. I am the president here. It is not up to you or the Jiang Family if the students can stay here to study or not. We base that on the school’s rules and regulations. Student Jiang, please speak carefully. Don’t treat this place as your family’s territory!”
When Mr. Jiang heard this, his expression became even uglier. ...
“Shut up!” Mr. Jiang reprimanded his daughter sternly again.
Then, he smiled apologetically at principal Li and said, “Principal Li, please calm down. My Shuyu was just in a fit of anger and made a slip of the tongue. I apologize to you. Please forgive her for once.”
Today, he had completely lost his face because of his daughter.
After today’s incident was spread out, she would become the laughing stock of everyone.
However, Jiang Shuyu was his daughter, and he couldn’t just abandon her.
Principal Li said very seriously, “Mr. Jiang, on account of the Jiang family’s contributions to the school in the past, as the principal, I won’t be bothered by student Jiang’s slip of the tongue. However, I hope that in the future, Mr. Jiang will discipline student Jiang.”
Mr. Jiang could only smile apologetically once more. “Yes, yes, principal Li. I will definitely discipline her properly.”
At this moment, Xiao Letong, who had been quiet the entire time, tilted his head and said in a very naive manner, “Grandpa, what kind of hatred does Auntie Jiang have with my uncle that she wants my uncle dead? The purpose of the two attempts to frame him is to ruin my uncle’s reputation.”
Mr. Jiang’s expression froze, and he said embarrassedly, “Little friend, this is the adult’s matter. You won’t understand!”
Xiao Letong shook his head and said, “No, I’m very smart. Once you explain it, I’ll understand.” Then, he continued in an innocent voice, “My teacher taught us that we have to apologize when we make a mistake. Since Auntie Jiang has done something wrong, shouldn’t she apologize to my uncle?”
Mr. Jiang took a deep breath and said, “Okay, I’ll let Auntie Jiang apologize to your Uncle Now!”
Then, Mr. Jiang walked up to Jiang Shuyu and said seriously, “Jiang Shuyu, apologize to Xiao Lingye!”
Jiang Shuyu had been slapped by her father several times, and her face was swollen. Coupled with her crying, her eyelids became red and swollen, and her entire head looked like a pig’s head. Her beauty was gone.
Seeing her father’s serious expression and being forced by the situation, she had no choice but to walk up to Xiao Lingye. She lowered her head and said softly, “Xiao Lingye, I’m sorry!”
Her voice was very soft. Other than herself, no one could hear her.
Xiao Letong said, “Auntie Jiang, your voice is too soft. We can’t hear you. I don’t think my uncle can hear you either. Right, uncle?” Xiao Letong ran to Xiao Lingye’s side and hugged one of his uncle’s legs. He looked at Jiang Shuyu.
Xiao Lingye patted his little head and said with a smile, “Yes, I didn’t hear it either!”
When Jiang Shuyu heard this, she was angry and annoyed, but she had to suppress it. She said again, “Xiao Lingye, I’m sorry!”
Her voice was a little louder, but…
Xiao Letong’s small face immediately said in a very serious tone, “Auntie Jiang, you have to be sincere in apologizing. An apology is more than just a single I’m sorry. With your current attitude, how can we accept it?”
Jiang Shuyu was furious. She gritted her teeth and asked, “Then what exactly do you want me to do?”
Xiao Letong spread out his small hands and said, “Didn’t I say that an apology must be sincere? But your apology just now seemed to be perfunctory. Your voice was so low that it was as soft as a mosquito’s cry. People who didn’t know better would think that we’re bullying you. So…” Xiao Letong said very seriously, “You must apologize loudly and sincerely. It must be loud enough that even the people outside can hear you. Actually, wait,” Xiao Letong suddenly frowned, “You’ve harmed my uncle’s reputation on campus. You should apologize to him in front of the entire school. Daddy, shouldn’t this be the case?”
Gong Tianhao nodded, “That’s right. Since Miss Jiang made a mistake, she should pay the corresponding price. She wants to ruin your uncle’s public image. Your uncle was hated by the whole school. Now that the truth is out, of course, she needs to apologize in public to clear your uncle’s name.”
Mr. Jiang was the first to say awkwardly, “Mr. Gong, this…”
Apologizing to Xiao Lingye in front of the entire school would embarrass her daughter. How could she continue to survive in this school in the future? Her reputation would be ruined.
Gong Tianhao immediately waved his hand to stop him and said, “Mr. Jiang, that’s the price she needs to pay for her mistakes.”
There was no room for negotiation!
