He Jing found it funny. “The teacher is right. Since Teacher has said so, I’ll respect Teacher a little…”
As she spoke, she glanced at Zhou Xue’er. “But the prerequisite is that Zhou
Xue’er must apologize to me for her extreme words.”
Zhou Xue’er could not accept it at all. How could she apologize to her?
She was the eldest daughter of the Zhou family. It was fine if her status was lower than hers in the past, but now she was just a commoner. She wanted her to lower her head and apologize to her.
Impossible!
“No, I won’t apologize,” Zhou Xue’er said without thinking. “You were the one who bullied me first.”
All she did was return the favor.
“The bullying you’re talking about is because the teacher scolded you for failing the cooking class homework, but not me, right?” He Jing said. “Zhou Xue’er, may I ask what I did wrong?”
It was her teacher who was afraid of power and disregarded fairness, so she chose to let her go.
She did not let the teacher scold her, and…
“Back then, the cake assignment failed because the two had different opinions, so the third person in the group was forced to cook according to the two of us at the same time. That’s why that happened.”
“If we’re talking about mistakes, we’re both wrong. Why do you think I’m bullying you one-sidedly, Zhou Xue’er?”
Zhou Xue ‘er blurted, “You don’t know how to make a cake, but you still have to point fingers. I…”
Halfway through her sentence, she suddenly stopped.
Some students had already noticed something amiss and began to discuss what she said.
“Student He Jing’s cooking skills are so good. How could she not know how to make a cake?”
“I want to eat the desserts made by Student He Jing.”
“Zhou Xue’er is so funny. She gets angry when others don’t listen to her. She doesn’t want to listen to others either.”
“Had Zhou Xue’er taken a step back and handed all the cooking steps to He Jing, would she have failed that assignment? Maybe their group will be the best. She thinks too highly of herself and blames others.”
Zhou Xue’er pursed her lips and stared at He Jing, feeling embarrassed.
Suddenly, a voice that pretended to be innocent rang out in the classroom. “But Student He Jing was so good at cooking at that time. Why did she hide it and not report it? It caused Student Zhou Xue’er to misunderstand. If Student Zhou Xue’er knew, she definitely wouldn’t fight with Student He Jing for the command.”
Jing’s gaze followed the voice and she said calmly, “It seems that in Cheng Yi’s heart, cooking class is like a hotel kitchen. There are only the head chef and the helpers. As long as the homework is completed, everything will be fine. Nothing else is important.”
Shen Qiuyu and He Jing were already on the same page. She immediately continued, “Unfortunately, the original intention of the cooking class was to improve the students’ culinary skills. Everyone in the three-person group can express their opinions freely.”
“So,” Yan Hanxi added, “even if Student He Jing doesn’t know how to make a cake, she has the right to express her opinion.”
“As for Zhou Xue’er, “Wu Yu added, “She took such a small matter to heart and even held a grudge against Sister Jing for so long. She’s simply rare in the world.”
Zhou Xue’er could not control her tears as they fell.
Cheng Yi was speechless and could only shut up.
Zhou Qiu could not bear to see Zhou Xue’er crying. He clapped his hands and said, “Alright, that’s all.”
At this moment, the bell rang, and the cooking class ended.
However, a few formally dressed school leaders walked in outside the classroom and said, “We received an anonymous report from a student. It’s said that a teacher has violated his ethics and openly made things difficult for the students. He has caused great harm to the students’ hearts. Please come with us for questioning..”
