"What are you doing!"

Zhou Rong screamed and pushed him away, frantically wiping her face with her hands.

Just then, several voices came from the edge of the woods.

"Who's there!"

A majestic voice rang out.

Zhou Rong turned her head in alarm and saw Principal Gao, Director Wang of the Moral Education Department, and her parents.

There were also two police officers in uniform.

He was standing at the edge of the woods, staring wide-eyed.

His eyes were filled with disbelief.

The boy who had just confessed his feelings had already run away like a rabbit.

The atmosphere in the principal's office was somber.

Zhou Rong sat in the chair, his face deathly pale.

Her parents were standing next to her; they had rushed over after receiving a call from the university president.

Unexpectedly, I saw my daughter and the boy as soon as I reached the grove...

Mr. Zhou's face was ashen, his fists clenched tightly.

Zhou's mother kept wiping away her sweat, occasionally turning her head to glare at Zhou Rong.

Sitting opposite them were Fu Hua and Lin Bei, both with calm expressions.

There were three girls huddled in the corner; they were Zhou Rong and Fu Chaochao's usual followers.

Principal Gao sat behind his desk, his face more serious than ever before.

Two policemen were also seated, the national emblem on their caps standing out prominently under the lights.

"Zhou Rong,"

Principal Gao's voice was exceptionally clear in the quiet office.

"Please explain the rumors circulating at school about targeting Hua and Lin Bei."

"I...I don't know..."

Zhou Rong's voice was weak, but his expression was very firm.

"have no idea?"

Principal Gao looked at the three girls in the corner.

"You tell me."

The three girls pushed and shoved each other, and finally one of the smaller girls whispered, "Yes, Zhou Rong told us to say it... She said Fu Hua seduced Lin Bei, and told us to spread the word..."

She also said, "The harsher the better."

Another girl added, "They said this would make it impossible for Fu Hua to stay at school..."

"We really didn't know it was fake..."

The third girl was crying.

Zhou Rong said she saw it with her own eyes...

Zhou Rong suddenly stood up: "You're talking nonsense!"

"sit down!"

Mr. Zhou slapped her across the face, his voice echoing throughout the office, "You've been fooling around with men in the woods, what else wouldn't you do?"

Zhou Rong covered her face, tears welling up in her eyes.

She looked at Fu Hua, her eyes filled with resentment: "It's her, she's a vixen, am I wrong? Otherwise, how could Lin Bei have gone to Class 6? And..."

"My joining Class 6 was voluntary and had nothing to do with Fu Hua."

Lin Bei interrupted Zhou Rong, his brows furrowed: "Besides, we have three people tutoring each day, including Zhang Wen, who can testify to that."

"Everyone knows Zhang Wen and Fu Hua are friends, what she said..."

"That's enough!"

Principal Gao slammed his fist on the table and stood up. "Zhou Rong, we have investigated the matter thoroughly. It was you who instructed others to spread these baseless rumors, causing a terrible impact."

Your actions constitute defamation and insult. If Fu Hua and Lin Bei pursue this matter, you will be held legally responsible!

The older police officer said in a serious tone: "The consequences of this matter are very serious. I called you all here to discuss a solution."

Zhou's mother knelt down with a thud: "Principal! Please, my child is still young and doesn't understand... We are willing to apologize and compensate... Please don't send him to the police station!"

She then turned to Fu Hua and Lin Bei: "Fu, Lin, I beg you... Rongrong knows she was wrong..."

The office was silent except for Zhou's mother's suppressed sobs.

Principal Gao looked at Fu Hua and Lin Bei: "You are the victims, what do you suggest we do?"

Lin Bei looked at Fu Hua and said calmly, "I'll listen to Fu Hua."

All eyes were on Fu Hua.

Fu Hua sat quietly with her back straight.

The osmanthus-patterned hair tie on her wrist gleamed warmly under the light.

The faint fragrance emanating from her seemed to ease the heavy atmosphere slightly.

Fu Chaochao is behind this.

Zhou Rong didn't have the brains to plan all of this.

The details in those rumors were far too specific.

But she had no evidence.

Therefore, the only option is to completely remove this fang.

"First,"

Fu Hua spoke, her voice clear and calm.

"Zhou Rong must issue a public apology over the school's public address system, explaining that she fabricated the rumors and clearing my and Lin Bei's names."

Mr. Zhou nodded quickly, "Of course! Of course!"

"second,"

Fu Hua looked at Principal Gao and said, "I don't want to see Zhou Rong at school anymore."

The meaning of this statement is very clear.

Either transfer schools or drop out.

Zhou's mother wanted to say something more, but Zhou's father stopped her.

He gritted his teeth and said, "We'll transfer schools. We'll complete the procedures tomorrow!"

Principal Gao nodded, then looked at the police officer: "Officer, what do you think..."

The older police officer said, "Since the victim is not pursuing the matter, we will handle it according to school rules."

However, Zhou Rong's behavior is suspected of being illegal. This is a warning; if it happens again, it will be dealt with seriously.

The principal finally announced: "Zhou Rong, this is a major demerit on your record, and you are expelled from school. Starting tomorrow, you don't need to come to school anymore."

This was unprecedented at Minghua High School.

Even if Fu Hua hadn't said anything, he would never have allowed such a student to stay.

One bad apple spoils the whole bunch.

As I stepped out of the principal's office, it was almost dark.

Zhou's parents pulled Zhou Rong towards the school gate.

Zhou's father kept cursing all the way: "You shameful thing! You've completely disgraced me! How many more embarrassing and disgraceful things will you do?"

Zhou's mother cried and hit her daughter: "How could you be so foolish! How dare you spread such rumors! Now look what's happened, you can't even go to school..."

Zhou Rong numbly allowed his parents to beat and scold him.

Until they reached the school gate, she suddenly shook off her mother's hand.

Tears welled up in her eyes: "It was Fu Chaochao! Fu Chaochao made me do it!"

Mr. and Mrs. Zhou were stunned.

"She said Fu Hua stole everything from her... she said she was hypocritical..."

"Did she personally tell you to do these things?"

Zhou's father pressed for more information.

"You brat, are you trying to get yourself killed? Why didn't you say anything in front of the principal and the police?"

Mr. Zhou glared at Mrs. Zhou, signaling for Zhou Rong to answer first.

Zhou Rong clutched the hem of his clothes, stammering, "She...she didn't say it, but that's what she meant..."

Zhou Rong cried so hard she could barely breathe.

"I thought that once the rumors started spreading, Fu Hua wouldn't be able to stay at school... I didn't expect it to be this serious... I really didn't expect it..."

Mr. Zhou was trembling with rage: "You, you idiot! How could I have given birth to such an idiot? You've been used as a pawn without even realizing it!"

Zhou's mother hugged her daughter, and the two of them burst into tears.

In the distance, Fu Chaochao stood quietly behind the wall.

Seeing the Zhou family members embracing and weeping,

A cold smile curved at the corner of his lips.

idiot.

Blame it?

She sneered inwardly; how could someone mess up something so simple?

Why is she dragging Lin Bei into this when she's dealing with Hua?

Serves you right!!
