Chapter 38
"Um, Sir Princ.i.p.al?" Zhou Lei looked behind him. He didn't remember the princ.i.p.al's name at all...
"Hmm... oh! Uh... what?" The princ.i.p.al was startled. He was thinking about various things when Zhou Lei suddenly called out to him.
"What do you need me for?" Zhou Lei asked nicely. He was very nervous about the princ.i.p.al's answer. If he said that he would be expelled, he would have to plead.
"Ah, that... well..." The princ.i.p.al scratched his head. He didn't have the guts to tell him the reason why he was dragging him somewhere.
Zhou Lei interrupted the princ.i.p.al. He fell down to his knees and pleaded. "Please... please don't expel me!"
He thought that the princ.i.p.al was embarra.s.sed to say it to his face. Of course, who wouldn't be?
The princ.i.p.al was dumbfounded. In the long and quiet hallway, the sound of the handsome man's voice reverberated on the walls.
"E-expel? Why would I expel you?"
"Huh?" Zhou Lei didn't expect this response from the princ.i.p.al. "If you aren't going to expel me, what are going to do?"
"It's like this..." To clear up the misunderstanding, the princ.i.p.al explained to the handsome man his plan.
"Oh! I see... you should've just told me." Zhou Lei nodded as he spoke. He was very relieved to learn that the princ.i.p.al wasn't going to expel him.
"Okay, come with
Zhou Lei and the princ.i.p.al resumed walking.
The students were unnaturally quiet. Only the sounds of footsteps could be heard.
.....
The two finally arrived at the teacher's meeting room. The giant mob of teachers following them frowned as soon as they saw the sign.
"A meeting?" Wen Hui was oblivious to all this, so she asked the teacher beside her.
"Ah, yes. We were supposed to fetch you." Ruan Juan answered.
Ruan Juan and Wen Hui always and a bad relations.h.i.+p, due to the matter of Chen Chen. However, both of them now reconciliated since Ruan Juan wasn't in love with Chen Chen anymore.
"You. Go back to your cla.s.sroom, quietly." The princ.i.p.al sneakily shooed the handsome man away to return to his cla.s.sroom while the teachers were distracted.
"Ah, yes." Zhou Lei had no problem with it. He just followed the princ.i.p.al, and so he escaped the gazes of the teachers.
"Hmm? Where is the young man?" One teacher pointed out.
"Ah, you're right, he's gone." Another teacher replied with a sad tone of voice.
"Let's go look for him!" Chen Chen suggested to the crowd.
"No!" With the princ.i.p.al's temperament, it was a wonder he could last until right now before he shouted.
All of the teachers were startled. They looked at the angered princ.i.p.al and shuddered.
In the end, they could only frown as they walked inside the meeting room.
Once they were all inside, the princ.i.p.al spoke. "Okay-"
Ring! Ring!
The bell suddenly rang, interrupting the princ.i.p.al. The teachers instinctively stood up and walked towards the door.
"Hey, what are you lot doing?!" The princ.i.p.al hurriedly ran towards the door to block the teachers.
"But it's break time." Wen Hui responded.
"That's for the students!" The princ.i.p.al answered angrily.
"Oh, yeah, that's right..." The teachers sat back down.
