Sweat beads formed on Qiu Yonggenâs forehead as he spoke, âMr. Jian, itâs like this. When we went to notify her earlier, Rong Qi wasnât in the classroom. So, maybe she wasnât informed in time. Iâll send someone to call her right away.â
With that, Qiu Yonggen signaled to Han Yi and Han Yi left the room promptly.
However, Rong Feiyu, who had been hanging her head, spoke up at that moment. Her voice was gentle as she said, âVice Principal Qiu, Mr. Jian, I might know where Rong Qi is.â
When he heard Rong Qiâs name, Jian Yunzhouâs lips curled into a smile and said, âOh? Please tell us.â
Rong Feiyu hesitated, her face turning pale as she seemed somewhat reluctant.
Vice Principal Qiu furrowed his brows and said, âRong Feiyu, just speak your mind. There are many people here; what are you afraid of?â
Rong Feiyu glanced at Su Yifan, and seeing the encouraging looks from the others, she gathered her courage and said, âWhen we came here this morning, we saw a group of gangsters standing downstairs in the lecture building. They seemed to be looking for Rong Qi, and I suspected that she might have gotten into some trouble. So, 1 wanted to find out what was going on.â
Rong Feiyu continued, her voice trembling slightly, âBut 1 didnât expect those people to yell at me and drive me away. They looked terrifying, like evil spirits. My legs are still trembling now. How could Rong Qi have offended such people?â
âIs that it?â Jian Yunzhou thought as he furrowed his brows.
Jian Yunzhou believed that if one person got scared by a group of people was indeed a sign of having a timid nature. He said, âIt seems that Rong Feiyu is a little timid. If conditions allow, you can ask your parents to take you to the prison for a visit, get to know more people, and maybe you wonât be so scared next time.â
Rong Feiyu bit her lip and thought, âThat wasnât what I meant at all! Visiting a prison? How could I possibly go there!â
However, nobody expected that Jian Yunzhouâs words would turn the situation around completely at that moment.
Others in the room were puzzled. They werenât sure if Jian Yunzhou was comforting Rong Feiyu. Even if he was, it was an unconventional way of doing so.
After that, everyone in the room no longer dared to speak a word.
Fortunately, they didnât have to wait too long. A clear voice was heard from the entrance, âReporting.â
Qiu Yonggen saw the two people at the door and immediately lit up. He said, âCome in, weâve been waiting for you two!â
He Jinghan and Rong Qi entered.
Qiu Yonggen looked at Rong Qi, who had a cold and indifferent expression on her face and couldnât help but frown, appearing displeased. He said, âRong Qi, everyone was waiting for you. Why did you come so late?â
Rong Qi replied indifferently, âNo one informed me, so naturally, I arrived late.â
âDonât lie!â Qiu Yonggen glanced at Jian Yunzhou and glared at Rong Qi. â1 specifically asked Mr. Han to inform you earlier. You must have been slacking off or messing around somewhere, only showing up this late.â
Rong Qi retorted, âThere are surveillance cameras in the corridor. If Vice Principal Qiu doesnât believe me, you can check the footage.â
Qiu Yonggen was at a loss for words, his face filled with anger. He felt like Rong Qi had come here just to oppose him.
Rong Qi looked at the people in the office and continued nonchalantly, âSince everyone is here, 1â11 speak my mind. 1 donât think I have the necessary qualifications for the Academic and Research Society. I tend to get into fights and trouble, so Iâm not suitable for it. Please reconsider and allow me to voluntarily give up my spot. Iâll be deeply grateful, and I promise to study hard, start afresh, and bring glory to our universityâ¦â
Rong Qi had already prepared the speech on her way here, but before she could finish it, she saw the man in the white shirt, who had been facing away from her, turning around and raising an eyebrow as he looked at her.
âSh*t! Itâs Yunâ¦â
Rong Qi almost blurted out Jian Yunzhouâs name.. She was stunned to see him here and cursed in her mind, âWhy didnât anyone tell me about this?!â
