After hearing this, all the girls secretly gasped.
Chief Gu Shan acted vigorously and resolutely, and in just two hours, the matter was clearly investigated. The severity of Sheng Jinyue's punishment was even more shocking.
It’s just a zero point for the monthly exam. It’s embarrassing to post an announcement and self-examination in public. Not to mention, it’s a warning, and if you do it again, you will be expelled from the academy!
"Are you thinking that my punishment to Sheng Jinyue is too harsh?"
Gu Shanchang's eyes suddenly brightened, as bright as a candle, and his voice rose slightly: "Lianchi Academy has been advocating friendship and harmony among classmates for more than ten years. Such acts that harm classmates are taboo!"
"You stood out from hundreds of students who applied for the exam and became students of Haitang Academy. You have the honor to study together with your classmates. How lucky you are and what a fate. If anyone is like Sheng Jinyue, who harbors jealousy and murders others, I will never
incompatible!"
"Sheng Jinyue was born in the Huainan Prince's Palace and has always been proud and conceited. She thought that even if she made a mistake, I, the mountain chief, would have to tolerate it for the sake of the Huainan Prince's Palace."
"It's a pity that she was wrong! I will never condone, let alone shield! I will only punish severely!"
"If she wants to continue to stay in Lianchi Academy, she must abide by the rules of the academy and accept punishment. Otherwise, she will be expelled immediately!"
"You also need to remember this lesson and never make similar mistakes!"
All the girls were filled with awe and responded in unison.
Li Xiangru's heartbeat was racing and his breathing was a little short. He didn't have the courage to look at Gu Shanchang and responded in a low voice.
After Chief Gu Shan said these words, he called Xie Mingxi's name again: "Xie Mingxi, you come with me."
…
Lin Wei was startled and quickly looked at Xie Mingxi.
Chief Gu had already punished Sheng Jinyue, so why did he call Xie Mingxi away? Shouldn't he be angry with Xie Mingxi because of this?
Xie Mingxi looked quite calm, responded, and stepped forward.
Unexpectedly, the Sixth Princess also came forward: "Shan Chief, this matter is also related to me, so I will go too."
Xie Mingxi: "..."
Xie Mingxi quickly glanced at the Sixth Princess beside her, feeling a little complicated.
The Sixth Princess was worried that Chief Gu wanted to make things difficult for her, so she insisted on going with her...
Facing the Sixth Princess who came forward, Chief Gu Shanchang did not soften his attitude and said calmly: "The matter I want to ask Xie Mingxi has nothing to do with Her Royal Highness. Her Royal Highness will stay for now."
Before the Sixth Princess could open her mouth, Xie Mingxi suddenly said: "I'll come as soon as I go. Your Highness, there is no need to worry."
The sixth princess just shut up.
After Xie Mingxi left with Chief Gu, the girls were whispering again. This time, the focus of the discussion among the girls became: "Oh my God! It's scary when Chief Gu loses his temper!"
"Yeah, I was so scared just now that I didn't dare to move at all!"
"Sheng Jinyue deserves it! Who made her have bad intentions and want to use such despicable means to frame sister Xie. Fortunately, sister Xie did not fall into the trap today!"
"We should all take this as a warning. We must not have similar thoughts in the future. Otherwise, it will be announced on a public notice and we will have to reflect on ourselves in front of all the students and teachers. It will be really embarrassing."
"Perhaps Sheng Jinyue can't afford the shame and doesn't want to come to Lianchi Academy again."
"It's possible..."
…
Li Xiangru returned to the dormitory alone.
As soon as the door closed, Li Xiangru's calm mask was immediately removed, replaced by panic.
Did Sheng Jinyue confess her?
Probably not! Otherwise, Chief Gu would have called her name just now. Chief Gu didn't even buy it from the Huainan Palace, and he probably wouldn't let her go for the sake of her grandfather, Mr. Li Ge.
Therefore, she will be fine. She will not be implicated.
To say the least, it was Sheng Jinyue who confessed her, and she didn't say anything outrageous at the time. It was Sheng Jinyue who "actively" and "proactively" wanted to harm people. At most, she didn't report what she knew...
Button!
There was a sudden knock on the door.
Li Xiangru was startled, and his voice was sharp and high-pitched: "Who is it?"
The person outside the door was also startled: "Sister Li, it's me."
Li Xiangru's violently beating heart calmed down a little, he composed himself, and stepped forward to open the door. Standing outside the door was none other than Yan Zhenzhen.
Yan Zhenzhen opened her big round eyes with a frightened expression: "Sister Li, what happened to you just now? I only knocked on the door, why did you shout like you saw a ghost?"
Li Xiangru smiled perfunctorily: "I was thinking about Sheng Jinyue and lost my mind for a moment. I was startled by the knock on the door."
Yan Zhenzhen glanced at Li Xiangru with doubt.
To be surprised so easily? This is not Li Xiangru's style. She has always been known for being calm and calm.
Li Xiangru didn't want to be noticed, so she quickly squeezed out a smile and pulled Yan Zhenzhen into the dormitory: "Sister Yan suddenly came to see me, why?"
Yan Zhenzhen sighed gloomily: "It's nothing. It's just that Sheng Jinyue made such a big noise today, and I was a little panicked."
"To tell you the truth, after I made the bet with Xie Mingxi, I also had the idea of doing something... Fortunately, I wasn't brave enough and didn't dare to do anything. Otherwise, I would be the unlucky person now!"
Li Xiangru: "..."
Li Xiangru was in a complicated mood, and his expression was hard to describe.
"After this incident, I finally figured it out. Studying hard is the right path. It's meaningless to think of any crooked means to defeat Xie Mingxi just once by luck."
"Forget it, I'll just lay out paper and grind ink for her for the next month. Just take it as a lesson learned."
After Yan Zhenzhen vomited the bitter water, she left quickly.
Li Xiangru was left to continue struggling alone in the dormitory.
…
Lin Weiwei also had a worried look on her face, lying on the bed with her eyes open, not even the slightest bit sleepy.
Fang Ruomeng said softly: "Don't worry too much. This matter is all Sheng Jinyue's fault. Sister Xie can't be blamed. Shanchang Gu called Sister Xie over, probably to ask about the cause and effect. Sister Xie will be fine."
Lin sighed slightly: "That's what you say, but I'm always a little worried."
Fang Ruomeng had almost blind confidence in Xie Mingxi: "Even if something happens, Sister Xie can resolve it safely."
Lin Weiwei laughed dumbly and looked at Fang Ruomeng: "You have confidence in her."
Fang Ruomeng looked serious: "I'm not kidding. Think about it, it's been more than a month since we entered the Lotus Pond Academy. Have you ever seen Sister Xie suffer a loss?"
This is true.
No matter who confronts Xie Mingxi, they will always suffer the consequences. Even the sixth princess was treated submissively by Xie Mingxi.
Although Chief Gu Shan is more strict, I think Xie Mingxi can handle it.
After Lin Weiwei figured it out, she smiled and said, "That's all, let's take a nap first. It won't be too late to ask her in detail when she comes back."
