After they left the classroom, Qin Mucheng asked, âWhatâs wrong?â
âItâs my counselor who told me to go to his office. He said that Hu Hao and Liu Bowenâs parents are here.â
Qin Mucheng remained silent.
When they got into the car, Qin Mucheng said, âHu Hao and Liu Bowenâs parents came over to look for you through the teacher.â
âI know.â Ji Yuanyuan nodded. âThey definitely want me to forgive Hu Hao and Liu Bowen so that their crimes can be reduced. Even though I called the police, 1 only had a superficial wound. Moreover, 1 heard Hu Haoâs family is quite rich. If they have my forgiveness, coupled with Hu Haoâs familyâs connections, with a little manipulation, perhaps the two of them wonât be punished. At most, he would be expelled from school, or he wouldnât even have to.â
At this point, Ji Yuanyuan let out a long sigh, âAlthough I will suffer some grievances, 1 believe Hu Hao and Liu Bowen will not dare to provoke me in the future. And our family will also get a large sum of money.â
Hu Haoâs family was rich. If he wanted to gain her forgiveness, he would definitely have to pay a price.
Upon hearing Ji Yuanyuanâs casual words, Qin Muchengâs heart ached a little as he asked, âThen do you want this? Do you want to forgive them?â
Ji Yuanyuan did not speak for a long time.
Qin Mucheng kept looking at her, his eyes filled with tenderness.
After a while, Ji Yuanyuan turned to look at Qin Mucheng and asked uncertainly, âIf I said that I didnât want to forgive them and wanted them to get the punishment they deserved, would you think that 1 was too petty and vicious?â
After all, if she didnât forgive them, not only would Hu Hao and Liu Bowen have to drop out of B University, but they would also have criminal records.
Their lives might be ruined.
Qin Mucheng naturally understood what Ji Yuanyuan meant.
His heart ached as he hugged Ji Yuanyuan, âItâs my fault that you donât have enough sense of security, which is why youâre so conflicted. Yuanyuan, their lives were already fixed the moment they pulled out the knives.â
Ji Yuanyuan sniffed and rubbed her head against Qin Muchengâs shoulder.
âIf you werenât so skilled, perhaps if they have more people, then today, the one whose life has been ruined will be you. Even if you agree to a settlement, 1 wonât agree. I have plenty of money. 1 can give you as much as you want. Thereâs no need to be greedy for that small profit. Even if you and I agree to reconcile, do you think Uncle and Auntie will agree?â
Even if Hu Family offered io million or 20 million, Li Xu and Zhang Kun would never agree.
They would not use their daughter to make money.
âI donât want to forgive them! Why should 1 forgive them? They bullied me again and again. 1 donât want to forgive them!â Ji Yuanyuan said firmly.
Qin Mucheng laughed when he heard that.
He patted Ji Yuanyuanâs back, âThen, stay in the car later. Donât go see them. Let me, Uncle, and Auntie deal with the rest of the things, okay?â
âOkay!â Ji Yuanyuan nodded.
After that, she lifted her head from Qin Muchengâs arms and said seriously, âBig Brother Mu Cheng, then you must convey my attitude to them very seriously. Tell them that 1 will never forgive them!â
Qin Mucheng nodded seriously, âAlright, Iâll definitely help you convey the message to them.â
Ji Yuanyuan took a deep breath and fastened her seatbelt, âLetâs go!â
The counselorâs office was far away from the teaching building where they were currently attending classes.
Qin Mucheng drove the car and under Ji Yuanyuanâs instructions, they soon arrived outside the office building.
Ji Yuanyuan called Li Xu and found out that they were still on their way.
The two of them waited in the car for a while. Not long after, Li Xu and Zhang Kun came over.
Qin Mucheng left the car keys to Ji Yuanyuan and got out of the car.
âUncle, Auntie, Yuanyuan, and 1 have discussed it. Yuanyuan wonât be going. If thereâs anything, we can decide on her behalf.â Qin Mucheng said.
Li Xu nodded in satisfaction, âThatâs good. Your uncle and 1 have the same idea. We definitely wonât reconcile. If those two families are desperate and Yuanyuan is present, 1 wonât be at ease.â
âLetâs go in then. Yuanyuan told me the location of the counselorâs office just now.â Qin Mucheng quickly said.
Li Xu took a deep breath and held Zhang Kunâs arm. She followed Zhang Kun and Qin Mucheng into the office building valiantly.
In the office, the other teachers had already been cleared out. Only Ji Yuanyuanâs counselor, a teacher who was slightly older than the teacher, and Hu Hao and Liu Bowenâs parents were left.
When everyone saw that Ji Yuanyuan was not among them, their expressions changed.
The fact that the person involved didnât come was already very obvious.
After entering the door, Li Xu was also quietly sizing up the two couples.
One of the couples dressed like rich people, but they did not have much taste. At most, they were a pair of nouveau riche.
There was a black luggage bag under the manâs feet. It was bulging inside, and it was unknown what was inside.
The other couple was dressed more plainly and looked like they were from the ordinary office worker. The man lowered his head while the woman wiped her tears.
Li Xu also knew that it was not easy for a child from an ordinary family to get into B University. However, no matter how difficult it was, he couldnât do such a thing.
âMr. Zhang, Mrs. Zhang, this is the dean of our school. He heard about Ji Yuanyuan and was very worried. He came over early in the morning.â The counselor quickly introduced.
They didnât know where they got Zhang Kunâs surname from, but they finally got it right this time.
Li Xu patiently waited for the tutor to finish introducing the students. After they greeted the dean, she said, âLetâs get straight to the point. I know what the school wants, but we donât agree to settle this privately. Since weâve already called the police, let them handle it. None of us should interfere.â
The hospital director was a wily old fox. He immediately explained, âMrs. Zhang, please donât misunderstand the schoolâs intentions. The school has no intention of doing anything about this matter. Just as you said, since weâve called the police, weâll let the police handle it. Itâs just that Mr. Hu and Mrs. Liu feel very sorry for Ji Yuanyuan and want to personally apologize to her. Thatâs why the school has provided a venue for us.â
Li Xu had naturally heard this kind of official word many times.
âWeâre very grateful for the schoolâs concern. Yuanyuanâs body is fine. Sheâs just frightened and doesnât dare to see anyone. However, my words are also Yuanyuanâs meaning. We wonât do this privately. Weâll leave it to the police.â âIt seems that Mrs. Zhang has the final say in the family? Mrs. Zhang had said so much after coming in for so long, but Mr. Zhang did not say a word.â Hu Haoâs father said sarcastically.
It was obvious that this was a provocation.
However, Zhang Kun did not fall for it at all. He nodded calmly, âYes, my wife has the final say in our family..â
