Silence Her with Strength

Chapter 52: Shutting Them Up with Strength

The head of department said gravely, "Xi Yan, think this through. Once it is confirmed they cheated, your teaching career will be over."

Xi Yan expressionlessly replied, "I've thought it through. I trust them."

Luo Songhua sneered, "Overestimating your capabilities. Just wait to pack your bags and get out!"

The head of department instructed, "Go to Class 20 and call Meng Jinyang and Shen Huan down."

A teacher stood up. "I'll go get them."

"Wait." Xi Yan suddenly spoke up.

Luo Songhua said dismissively, "What? Regretting it now?"

Xi Yan cast a cold glance at her before looking back at the head of department. "I have a condition. If it's proven they did not cheat, everyone present must apologize to both of them."

Luo Songhua crossed her legs, leaned back, and smiled. "If they didn't cheat, let alone apologize, if they want to transfer into my Class 10, I will open the doors wide for them."

Xi Yan said nothing, merely staring at the head of department.

The head of department fell silent for a few seconds. "Fine. As long as it's confirmed they didn't cheat, I will apologize to them personally."

"Alright, Teacher Wang, then I'll trouble you to bring them down," Xi Yan said.

...

Class 20 was having a math class, and most of the students were dozing off.

At that moment—

"Teacher Chen." Teacher Wang stood at the doorway of Class 20 and called out. Instantly, all the students in the classroom snapped awake and looked over. He continued, "Please send Meng Jinyang and Shen Huan from your class."

Teacher Chen gave the two girls a profound look. "You two, go ahead."

Meng Jinyang and Shen Huan stood up and walked out, looking puzzled.

Gu Mang looked at the backs of the two girls with icy eyes, thought for a few seconds, and stood up. "Teacher, I need to go to the restroom."

Teacher Chen immediately recalled Gu Mang's zero, the only zero in the entire school, which made him question his life.

He sighed and waved a hand. "Go."

Gu Mang raised an eyebrow, turned around, and walked out through the back door.

Lu Yang watched the girl leave, frowned with hesitation, but ultimately lacked the courage to follow her out.

He felt that if he were criticized by the school, his biological father would probably tell him "well done."

If Gu Mang were criticized, his father would probably tear down half the school.

...

Gu Mang walked straight to the senior year conference room. Xi Yan was leaning against the railing by the door.

Seeing Gu Mang, Xi Yan was slightly stunned and straightened up. "Gu Mang, why did you run down here instead of being in class?"

With her hands in her pockets, Gu Mang walked lazily over to her side, casually resting her arm on the railing with her wrist hanging loose, and nodded toward the conference room next to them with a lift of her chin. "Are they inside retaking the exam?"

Xi Yan nodded. Assuming Gu Mang was worried about Meng Jinyang, she said, "Don't worry, I know Meng Jinyang didn't cheat. This time, our Class 20 is going to win!"

Gu Mang gave her a deep look and said nothing.

Her eyelashes dropped lower, the tip of her shoe tapping rhythmically against the floor, while the corners of her lips slowly curved upward.

She had known all along that Xi Yan would not surrender easily. In that case, she would use pure strength to shut them all up.
