Chapter 933: Xiao Chong Extra 24_2

Judging from the dance skills that Zheng Ying had displayed, her parents surely nurtured her with an ambition to see her excel, pushing her to the utmost within their capacity.

Now, hearing that she might be expelled from school, it’s only natural that her parents find it hard to accept.

It was evident that their communication with the school administration did not go smoothly. Her mother’s voice reached a hysterical pitch, and by the time they left, she was even more defeated than when she arrived.

Just as they were about to descend the stairs, Zheng Ying’s mother suddenly ran to the edge of the balcony and flipped over it. The teacher who was escorting them out was so frightened that her heart almost stopped, and she tightly grasped her hand, refusing to let go.

And Zheng Ying’s father seemed petrified, unable to step forward to help, instead, he just stood aside, slapping his head in regret, muttering "sinful, sinful."

Zheng Ying was also shocked into a stupor, standing beside her dad, mouth agape, unable to move.

"Mrs. Zheng, let’s talk this over," the teacher implored while holding onto her, calling for help.

"No! My daughter’s future is ruined, what’s the point of me living? I’m dying here today, at the very place that ended my daughter’s future, once and for all!" Mrs. Zheng shouted hysterically, struggling while hanging halfway over the fifth-floor balcony.

"Don’t do this, don’t do this! It’s not come to this point, it really hasn’t!"

The teacher and the dean, along with several subject teachers, rushed over and eventually managed to pull her up.

This whole jumping scenario truly was heart-stopping, leaving the school leaders in a cold sweat.

Fortunately, it occurred during class time, for had it been recess, it would have caused chaos at the school.

Lin Wanwan guessed that given the extremity of the incident, the expulsion decision for Zheng Ying might be retracted to keep things quiet; perhaps she’d be allowed to stay under probation.

But surprisingly, at the new week’s assembly, the dean still announced Zheng Ying’s withdrawal, advising all students to take warning from the incident, causing quite an uproar among the students.

After the morning assembly, Mi Yunzhi confronted Xiao Chong in the restroom, angrily questioning why he acted so ruthlessly.

With his skills, he could have easily driven away the thugs with a mere lesson; why escalate things to the point where Zheng Ying was forced to withdraw?

Xiao Chong, while washing his hands at the basin, replied coldly, "Little Mi, figure out the cause and effect of this matter before speaking to me. If you don’t get it, then don’t bother interacting in the future."

After speaking, he dried his hands and tossed the paper towel precisely into the side bin.

"Xiao Chong, was it really necessary to push a girl to the brink of withdrawal?"

Xiao Chong turned around, sneering, "Push? No, it’s reaping what was sown."

He finished speaking and walked off without looking back.

Mi Yunzhi glared at Xiao Chong’s back, gritting his teeth, his face as sullen as if he had eaten dirt.

In his view, the situation wasn’t really that serious; hadn’t there been plenty of fights during childhood!

In middle school, when someone had a crush on the same girl as Xiao Chong, wasn’t he also cornered by people, yet all was resolved by a fight.

Later, even the hooligans around Yongda Middle School knew that this school’s most dashing pretty boy was also the fiercest fighter, not to be trifled with, and no one dared provoke him.

Yet when similar situations arise in high school, Xiao Chong handles it with such extremity.

Ignoring the thugs is one thing, but instantly shattering Zheng Ying’s future as well.

He couldn’t help but harbor resentment, given his feelings for Zheng Ying.

Lin Wanwan quickly noticed the discord in the atmosphere between the two desks behind hers, which used to revolve around Xiao Chong, and recently, Mi Yunzhi hadn’t even spoken to him.

That evening, Lin Wanwan asked Xiao Chong as they snacked together by the window, "Did you fall out with Mi Yunzhi recently?"

"Not exactly," Xiao Chong replied calmly. "Our paths differ, no need to journey together."

Lin Wanwan was sipping the straw on her hot milk, watching Xiao Chong: "Hmm, Zheng Ying really got expelled? It feels somewhat surreal to me."

Xiao Chong slowly took a sip from his cup of liquor: "Not expelled, voluntarily applied for withdrawal, there’s a difference. She could still transfer to another high school as long as there’re connections."

Pausing for a moment, he added with an odd smile: "Her mother’s jump wasn’t completely futile either."

Lin Wanwan propped her cheek, sighing: "Didn’t expect it to turn out this severe, I thought it’d be something like a major demerit."

Xiao Chong chuckled: "Wanwan, have you softened up, feeling sympathetic towards her?"

Lin Wanwan’s eyes widened: "How could I! The scar on my knee might not even fade; setting an example is quite fine. For such a small matter, she dared to call two thugs to corner me, something she’s certainly done often before; I loathe bullies the most. It’s just that you and Mi Yunzhi ended up arguing, makes me feel a bit sorry."
