443 A Matter of a Few Words
“Chu Ning, admit your mistake and apologize. After all, it seems like you’re in the wrong.” Yu Yan also chimed in.
“You two go back now, or I’ll get someone to drag you away.” Song Gui’s voice suddenly sounded from behind them.
Behind Song Gui were Xu Xi, Xiaomi, and some others, including a few boys.
After hearing what Song Gui said, their eyes lit up.
“Class monitor, you’re going too far. Can’t we be at the school gate?” Ye Ting still wanted to argue.
“I will only count to three,” Song Gui said indifferently.
“Three, two…”
“We’ll just leave, why are you so fierce!” Ye Ting had to say this when Song Gui was about to reach the count of one.
She didn’t want to be dragged by the boys to the classroom with Yu Yan.
At the same time, Xu Xi slowly walked toward Dong Nan.
When he passed by Chu Ning, he smiled.
“Don’t worry, I’m here.” As Xu Xi spoke, he had already walked up to Dong Nan.
He looked at the banner and the pedestrians, parents, and even students who were watching.
According to this trend, the number of onlookers would only increase.
Xu Xi squatted down.
Then, he whispered a few words into Dong Nan’s ear.
“What you said… It’s true, you’re not lying to me?” Dong Nan looked at Xu Xi in disbelief.
“If you had a better choice, would you do this? As for whether I’m lying to you, you can try it when you go back. If you find something wrong, you can come back and kneel once more,” Xu Xi said with a smile.
“Thank you!” Dong Nan didn’t get up. Her eyes were no longer dull. It was as if she had suddenly caught a glimpse of hope.
She tossed away the sign hanging around her neck.
Yes, if she had a choice, would she give up her dignity and do this?
Dong Nan was about to kowtow to Xu Xi.
If Xu Xi wasn’t lying to her, she could say that he had really saved her family.
However, just as her forehead was about to touch the ground, Xu Xi’s steady and powerful arms helped her up.
“Big sister, I can’t accept such courtesy.” Xu Xi shook his head and spoke softly after helping Dong Nan up.
“The truth of justice naturally exists in the hearts of the people, you don’t have to worry,” Xu Xi added.
However, when Dong Nan heard Xu Xi’s words, she felt an inexplicable burning pain on her face.
Chu Ning had earlier said something similar to her.
But she had been unmoved.
“I’m sorry, President Chu.” After saying this, Dong Nan left the place.
“Ms. Dong, don’t be in such a hurry to leave. If that student just now threatened you, we will definitely uphold justice for you! You have to believe me, I’m a reporter! Hey! Don’t go…” A reporter had been following Dong Nan, but she was quickening her pace. She obviously didn’t want to talk to this noisy reporter.
Chu Ning looked at Dong Nan’s departing figure and could not help but sigh.
After Dong Nan left, those people who had raised the banner for her also left.
The farce that had yet to completely blow up had been easily resolved by Xu Xi.
“Xu Xi, thank you.” Chu Ning looked at Xu Xi with a complicated expression.
At this moment, the group of people walked towards the school.
Yan Shen likewise heaved a sigh of relief when Chu Ning did not notice.
He slowly put down the phone in his hand and smiled.
“It’s fine now,” Yan Shen muttered to himself.
Chu Ning didn’t go to the canteen. She was in no mood to eat.
Without a doubt, if Xu Xi had not spoken out to help her out that day, she would have been in deep trouble.
Xu Xi could rely on the power of his uncle, the Deputy Mayor, at any time, but Chu Ning couldn’t always trouble the mayor to help her.
The mayor was her trump card, which meant that she could only use it a few times. Otherwise, it would not be called a trump card.
If she turned to the mayor for help whenever she encountered any difficulties, it would indirectly show that she was not capable enough and the mayor had misjudged her.
But if Xu Xi helped her, it would be of a different nature.
Fortunately, this matter was resolved in time and did not cause a public uproar. However, as for how Chu Ning would follow-up on the matter, she still could not let her guard down.
Otherwise, with Zhou Hao’s personality, he might have even prepared a ‘surprise’ for Chu Ning.
“It seems that Father was right. This Xu Xi is indeed not simple. No, the person backing him is very strong!” Yu Yan and Ye Ting walked to the canteen. She knew what had subsequently happened at the school gate.
In her heart, her evaluation of Xu Xi had risen to another level.
“D***ed Chu Ning. What kind of charm do you have?” Yu Yan was a little depressed.
Yan Shen, whom she liked, and Xu Xi, whom her father had flagged out, were obviously biased toward Chu Ning…
