Chapter 243: Chapter 243: 243: Don't Leave After School (4)

Teacher Zhou, as the homeroom teacher,

knew about Xu Chuzheng being bullied; even if she didn’t know every detail, she was somewhat aware.

However, since Xu Chuzheng’s grades were not good and she was usually quiet and didn’t complain, Teacher Zhou naturally pretended to be unaware.

Better to mind one’s own business than to meddle.

At this moment, being called out so directly by Chuzheng, Teacher Zhou felt embarrassed as the complicated gazes of other teachers from different classes fell upon her.

“As a homeroom teacher, I believe you are aware of what’s happening, yet you allow it to continue unabated. Do you even qualify to be a teacher?”

“Xu Chuzheng!”

Teacher Zhou banged the desk and stood up.

The little girl looked at her with a calm expression, not at all intimidated.

Zhu Zian and his buddies were all startled.

This little junior is awesome!

As steady as they come!

“How can you speak to a teacher like that?”

“Speaking human language, can’t you understand?”

Wasn’t that implying that she couldn’t understand human language?

“Xu Chuzheng!” Teacher Zhou shook with rage, forcing herself to take a deep breath, “Right now, we are handling the issue of you forcing a classmate to drink milk tea, don’t change the subject.”

“Show me the evidence.” Without evidence, stop acting like a thug!

“…”

The milk tea had been consumed, where could any evidence be found?

In the end, she even took all those milk tea cups with her.

The tea shop could confirm how many she bought, but that couldn’t prove she made them drink it.

The place they chose was out of the way, usually devoid of people, let alone potential witnesses.

This was a loss that Yu Yue and her group could only swallow.

–

Chuzheng’s stance was clear: produce the evidence that she forced Yu Yue and the others to drink milk tea.

Otherwise, she would never admit to it.

Teacher Zhou, afraid that Chuzheng might mention the bullying incident again in front of the office teachers, although very angry, could do nothing about it.

Yu Yue couldn’t provide any evidence.

Chuzheng left expressionlessly.

Zhu Zian and his buddies were also released.

Zhu Zian approached Chuzheng, warning her, “Little junior, you’ve really offended Yu Yue now.”

“So what?”

The moment I arrived, Yu Yue had already offended me!

That Bastard dared to inflict so many injuries on her.

Zhu Zian gave her a few peculiar looks, “Do you know why Zhou Chu is siding with Yu Yue?”

Zhou Chu? Who’s that!

After a moment, Chuzheng realized who Zhu Zian was referring to.

Teacher Zhou, of a certain age not yet married, was called that behind her back by these flunkies.

To say Teacher Zhou was siding with Yu Yue, there was indeed some truth to it.

Other teachers might not be clear about the original owner’s temperament, but how could Teacher Zhou not be?

Yet it was always the original owner who ended up being bullied.

And then Teacher Zhou had directly questioned her as to why she was bullying classmates.

“Why?”

“You really don’t know?” Zhu Zian looked around, “Our principal’s surname is also Yu.”

“Oh.”

The original owner was not aware of this.

Yu Yue never took the initiative to reveal any relationship with the principal.

Chuzheng’s indifferent reaction made Zhu Zian even more puzzled.

Wasn’t she afraid?

They were in their final year of high school, about to leave school soon, and not planning to continue their studies, so naturally, they weren’t afraid of any principal.

“Little junior, you’re really bold, daring to speak to Zhou Chu like that.”

“What’s there to be afraid of.”

“Were you really bullied by Yu Yue and her group?”

“Yeah.” Xu Chuzheng was bullied by them, but I certainly wasn’t!

Zhu Zian hadn’t paid much attention before, only remembering that sometimes, he indeed saw Yu Yue and her group dragging a girl around.

But that girl always kept her head down, and he never saw her face clearly.

“You don’t seem like it…” Zhu Zian muttered to himself.

How is this like someone being bullied?

It looks more like the one doing the bullying.

Zhu Zian was tall and intimidating, but he wasn’t really that scary. When he spoke, he had a bit of a rascal’s smile, which was quite handsome.

“Little junior, add me on WeChat, will you?”

“I don’t have one.”

“How is that possible? Nowadays, who doesn’t use WeChat? Don’t be so cold, little junior, just add me.”

“I don’t have a phone,” Chuzheng added two more words.

Given the original host’s situation, the Xu family wouldn’t buy her a phone.

Zhu Zian couldn’t believe his ears.

What kind of era is this?

To still have people without phones.

But looking at Chuzheng’s icy demeanor, it didn’t seem like she was lying, so Zhu Zian had no choice but to leave regretfully with his buddies.

This little junior seems quite interesting!

Yu Yue and her girlfriends had also left the office. She quickly caught up with Chuzheng and stopped her at the staircase.

“Xu Chuzheng, I don’t care what tricks you’re pulling, but remember what happened today!”

Having said that, Yu Yue hurried downstairs.

“You think hooking up with Zhu Zian will let you off the hook, Xu Chuzheng, don’t dream. Just you wait!”

“Wait for it!”

“You’ll get what’s coming to you!”

The three girls behind left her with one parting shot each.

Chuzheng looked around, at the end of the hallway was a sink with a bucket next to it. Chuzheng walked to the balcony and glanced outside.

The stairs were on this side, so Yu Yue probably wouldn’t go back to the classroom…

She picked up the bucket filled with who-knows-what water and waited for Yu Yue and her group to leave before pouring it down.

Chuzheng retracted back.

Listening to the screams below, she calmly placed the bucket back in its place.

[Little sister, do you know what this scene looks like?]

“What does it look like?”

[The heroine being tortured by the evil supporting female character.]

“I’m the heroine?”

[No, you’re the evil supporting female character.]

Chuzheng’s indifferent face: “Bastard, are you asking for a beating?”

[…] I’m out of here.

–

The original host didn’t board at school.

Chuzheng went home to the Xu family after school.

The house was very lively, and as Chuzheng opened the door to enter, the noise grew even louder.

Father Xu was drinking with friends, a big table full of men with the smell of alcohol filling the room.

“Yo, Old Xu, your daughter is back.”

“A waste of money.” Father Xu, slightly drunk, just cursed upon hearing, “Drink up, drink up.”

“A daughter is like a little cotton-padded jacket to her father, Old Xu, you don’t know the good fortune you’re in,” the man said with a lecherous gaze circling around Chuzheng.

“What little cotton-padded jacket, I’ve lost all my capital raising her,” Father Xu ranted with nothing nice to say.

Some agreed with him, others opposed, all with a touch of obscenity.

Mother Xu and Xu Shenghui were not there, nowhere to be seen.

Chuzheng, expressionless, closed the door and went to the bathroom.

She had yet to examine this body she now occupied.

In the mirror, the girl was wearing a baggy school uniform, with bangs too heavy, covering her eyes.

Chuzheng lifted the bangs, looking at her reflection from left to right.

Father Xu was average in looks, but Mother Xu was quite attractive.

The original owner inherited Mother Xu’s genes, with a pair of black, broad eyes, double eyelids, and eyebrows like willow leaves, naturally beautiful without any grooming necessary.

Possibly due to malnutrition, her skin lacked luster and she looked lethargic overall.

But all in all, she was still rather cute.

Chuzheng found scissors and trimmed her overgrown bangs.

Only after tidying up did she leave the bathroom and pass through the living room back to her own room.

The original host’s room wasn’t big, with just a bed, a desk, and a wardrobe, leaving no more space for anything else.

Poor thing.
