Tang Lin just wanted to swiftly resolve this mortifying situation. His top-ranked class was caught cheating not just once, but twice. He lost his face in front of the entire university.
If the news went public, there would be all kinds of complaints heâd receive from parents.
At Tang Linâs words, Rong Feiyu stood still, her body drenched as if splashed with a bucket of icy water. A chill ran from her head to her toes.
âNo, donât expel me. I didnât do it. They framed me! They framed me!â Rong Feiyu broke down, sobbing uncontrollably.
Qiu Yonggen slammed his hand on the table, making the water cup on it bounce. His face twisted in extreme displeasure, âExpel them both! No exceptions!â
Han Yi glanced at Su Yifan, disappointment clouding his eyes. His own nephew had thrown away his future for the sake of a woman. He turned around and began typing up the expulsion documents, preparing to make an announcement before the entire university.
âBut what about the apology for Rong Qi?â
A voice suddenly broke the tension in the office, accompanied by an unsettling timbre that sent shivers down everyoneâs spine. While the matter was resolved, Rong Qi, who had been wrongfully accused, had yet to receive an apology.
Su Yifan turned around, his eyes red and his throat choked with emotion. However, when he met Rong Qiâs sneering smile, he found himself at a loss for words. He turned and bolted from the room.
Han Yi could only watch, his fingers hovering over the keyboard in somber contemplation.
Qiu Yonggen approached Rong Qi with sincere regret, even bowing to her. âI apologize for the inconvenience, Rong Qi. Rest assured, we will make things right.â
With the truth revealed, Rong Qi returned to her classroom.
In the hallway, Rong Feiyu was being dragged out of the university by the security guards. The once glamorous Rong Feiyu was now a disgraced cheater. Students in the corridor spat at her and threw things, their faces filled with disdain.
The security guards didnât interfere; their task was simply to get Rong Feiyu off the campus. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âScum! Cheating and framing othersâyouâre a disgrace to Capital University!â
âGet out! I canât believe we were classmates. Youâve embarrassed us all!â
Rong Feiyuâs accusers were mostly familiar faces, many from her own class. These were people who used to share a classroom with her, but now they looked at her as if she were a plague.
In just one semester, Rong Feiyu had ruined her reputation. She tightened her fists as she scanned the sea of hostile faces.
âVery well,â Rong Feiyu thought. âEach and every one of you, Iâll remember this.
I vowed to seek revenge one day, to make them grovel at my feet and regret their actions. And Rong Qi, I wouldnât spare her either. I would make sure sheâll suffer a terrible fate. Just wait and see.â
As Rong Feiyu was escorted away, many students came out to âsee her offâ.
Rong Qi strode down the hallway, heading towards Class 7.
âRong Qi, wait.â
The one who called out was Tang Lin.
Rong Qi raised an eyebrow and looked back, âWhat is it, Mr. Tang?â
Tang Lin stared at Rong Qi, his usually stern face contorted with uncertainty. He took a deep breath and said, âI owe you an apology, Rong Qi. I let my preconceived notions about you cloud my judgment repeatedly. I ignored the truth, and for that, Iâm deeply sorry. I offer you my sincere apologies..â
