Chapter 13
.
I saw the principal blocking the door with one hand and quickly handed a card to the leader, seemingly a ** bank gold card.
After receiving it, the leader immediately had a complete change in attitude.
He walked to the coffee table and put down the briefcase in his hand, and cleared his throat.
"This matter has a significant impact, and there are still some details that need careful consideration." I was shocked, what kind of operation is this? Did the dean openly bribe the leader to protect Xia Tian? Is Xia Tian his own son? In my disbelief, the leader spoke again: "Shen Qian was not substantively violated, which indicates that Teacher Xia did not have subjective intent.
Therefore, it cannot be considered as harassment.
As the two students just mentioned, Teacher Xia has always cared for students and is a rare outstanding young teacher." Shen Qian's figure slightly swayed, and her face turned even paler.
I couldn't tolerate them distorting right and wrong like this, so I resisted Shen Qian's obstruction and argued, "This is fake! They planned it in advance.
It was clearly a performance, and such poor acting skills, can't you see through it, leader? Xia Tian has a history of misdeeds, and to describe him as a 'role model' is an insult to the entire education industry!" The dean enthusiastically babbled to the leader, "This student, Wang Xin, taking advantage of her good grades, repeatedly applied for a recommendation for graduate school from the school.
But according to the principles of fairness and justice, we gave the recommendation to a more outstanding student.
Therefore, she harbors resentment towards the school and deliberately slanders, which truly brings shame to our institution." The leader, having received the money, completely sided with the dean and others.
He solemnly said, "With such despicable qualities, even in society, one cannot create value.
Since you are the dean, you have a responsibility to educate.
When it's time for punishment, don't be lenient.
That Shen Qian is full of lies and defames her superiors.
I think expulsion is not excessive." The dean repeatedly nodded in agreement.
As I watched them colluding together, I became frustrated but powerless.
I could only clench my fists tightly.
Suddenly, Shen Qian grabbed my wrist and shook her head at me, saying, "They are all the same kind of people.
Don't engage in pointless arguments anymore.
I don't want to involve you." Involve? The whole reason for this incident was that I wanted to fight for the opportunity I lost for myself, and Shen Qian happened to lend a helping hand when I was most helpless.
At that time, Xia Tian used the recommendation for graduate school as bait to lure me to his office.
Shen Qian suggested that she would go instead of me.
At first, I didn't believe her.
Why would she be willing to take risks for someone she didn't have much interaction with? She told me the story of a girl who was deceived by her university teacher and eventually committed suicide in despair.
She admitted that she did all this to ensure that the person who had done wrong would receive the punishment they deserved.
I asked Shen Qian who that girl in the story was to her, but she clenched her lips tightly and refused to say.
She told the story with such sincerity and emotion, as if a wounded person was revealing their scars.
The vivid pain and blood could not deceive anyone.
Therefore, I decided to cooperate with her in implementing this plan.
On one hand, it was for her, but the greater reason was that if the plan succeeded, I would regain my qualification for further education.
From the beginning, Shen Qian told me that the plan carried risks.
So even if it ultimately failed, I never felt it was her fault.
Instead, I desperately wanted to argue for her.
However, in the hands of these influential figures, we were like a lump of mud, being manipulated and molded by them.
