Chapter 196 - 196: Betrayal

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Wu Rongying was shocked. She had heard that the school had a new vice-principal, but she did not expect the new vice-principal to be this young Physics teacher.

The students of Class 1 were also collectively shocked.

Someone said weakly, “Didn’t he say he was just an ordinary teacher?”

How was being a vice-principal in his twenties ordinary??

After learning that Xiao Yize was the vice-principal, Wu Rongyings attitude changed drastically. She was no longer as arrogant as before, but she was still a little unwilling to apologize to a student like Gu Jin. “Gu Jin, I was wrong about you. Don’t take it to heart.”

Gu Jin ignored her and leaned on the table to sleep with a book covering her face.

The veins on Wu Rongying’s forehead twitched. Just as she was about to complain to Xiao Yize, the vice-principal, that this student did not respect her, she turned around and saw Xiao Yize leaving.

Wu Rongying was infuriated. She was very agitated throughout the entire English period, and from time to time, she would secretly mock Gu Jin.

“Some students shouldn’t be arrogant just because they were lucky enough to do well. I’ve been teaching in First High School for more than ten years, and I’ve seen many people who are usually arrogant end up crying during the college entrance examination.”

“Your family’s money can help you for a while, but can you interfere with the college entrance examination?”

Not to mention Gu Jin, even Gu Yang wanted to sleep.

Even if the evidence was conclusive, Wu Rongying still stubbornly believed that Gu Jin had relied on the Gu family’s connections to get first place.

Five minutes before the period ended, the school broadcast announced that Xu Xuanyan had forged evidence and slandered Gu Jin for cheating.

Xu Xuanyan’s expression was ugly. Her good impression of Xiao Yize had dissipated because of this.

How could a mere vice-principal of First High School not give her face? She wanted to make Xiao Yize and Gu Jin unable to stay in First High School!

After returning to the Gu residence at night, Gu Yang realized that the house was much quieter than before.

Ruan Xueling didn’t greet her with a smile like she usually did when she saw her return. The maids and servants at home were very careful in cleaning and didn’t dare to make too much noise.

Ruan Xueling leaned against the sofa. Her eyes were a little empty, and her face was a little pale. She looked like she had suffered a huge blow.

Even the usually noisy Gu Pei felt that something was wrong with Ruan Xueling. He lowered his voice and said to Gu Yang, “Big Sister, Mom doesn’t seem to be in a good mood.”

He was used to seeing his mother scolding him when she was frustrated. Now that he suddenly saw such a shrewish woman become fragile and quiet, he was at a loss.

Gu Yang roughly knew why. She placed her index finger in front of her lips and gestured for Gu Pei to keep quiet. Then, she walked towards Ruan Xueling and sat beside her.

The sun was scorching outside, and the air conditioner in the house was on.

Gu Yang reached out to hug Ruan Xuelings arm. She could clearly feel her slightly cold temperature from the cold air. She looked at Ruan Xueling and said gently, “Mom, don’t hold it in if you feel upset.”

Instead, the negative emotions would accumulate more and more. It was best to vent them appropriately.

Ruan Xueling, who was originally a little numb, suddenly felt a slight warmth from her arm. Hearing her daughter’s gentle words of concern, all the grievances instantly surged out like a flood breaking a dam. She was in tears. Her eyes turned red. “Yangyang, I didn’t expect Director Mu to really be the company’s spy! I knew him in high school and have been friends with him for almost 30 years. Back then, when he was at his wits’ end, I was the one who hired him to work in Xue Yao Jewelry. We’ve worked together for more than ten years. I really didn’t expect him to betray me..”
