Jiang Peishan's face turned pale. "Will our Lan family be affected as well?"

Lan Hanwen nodded. "My eldest brother has already handled it at the company. He is quite experienced and I believe he will minimize the impact of this incident."

"What about Xiaoxue?" Jiang Peishan's face was filled with worry. "She's never spent a night outside since she was a child. I don't know if she'll sleep well in the police station tonight..."

Lan Hanwen pursed his lips and said impatiently, "She brought this upon herself."

If it weren't for Lan Xuxue, he might have already reached an agreement with Nan Qiao.

"How could you say that about my sister? She's still young and naive. Why didn't you stop her at the scene?" Jiang Peishan got angry when she mentioned this. "Don't you know that her actions will affect our Lan family?"

Lan Hanwen's eyes widened as he looked at his mother in disbelief. "Mom, how can you blame me? I had no idea she would do such a thing. And when I arrived, it had already happened."

Jiang Peishan crossed her arms and continued to insist, "You are her brother, you should keep an eye on her."

"Now, the company is affected and she's been taken to the police station. What should we do?"

Lan Hanwen took a deep breath and tried to suppress his anger. "I've been trying to save the situation, but you guys always protect her like this. She'll never know where she went wrong. She's completely offended Nan Qiao, and even lost the patent authorization."

"I think Nan Qiao is a jinx. Look how good our family was before she came back. Now not only Jing Cheng is implicated, but Xiao Xue has also been dragged down by her..."

Lan Hanwen looked at Jiang Peishan who was chattering non-stop. For the first time, he realized that his mother was biased to this extent.

I don’t know what kind of tricks Lan Xuxue fed her to make her defend Lan Xuxue so outrageously!

"Mom, do you still think Xiaoxue is better than Nanqiao? Nanqiao clearly..."

Jiang Peishan raised her eyebrows and interrupted him, "Don't mention Nan Qiao. I get a headache when I hear her name."

Lan Zhiming listened from the side and rubbed his temples in frustration: "Stop arguing. Now is not the time to blame each other."

"Hanwen, contact Nanqiao again and see if there's any way to remedy the situation. Peishan, don't worry too much about Xiaoxue. She has to take responsibility for her actions."

"We need to hire a lawyer to defend Xiaoxue and try to get the lowest possible sentence."

After a good night's sleep, Nan Qiao went to school with her schoolbag the next day.

The early morning sun shone on the tree-lined avenue, and Nan Qiao walked towards the school gate with brisk steps.

As soon as she stepped into the school gate, a group of students quickly surrounded her like a tide and surrounded her tightly.

There was curiosity and admiration in their eyes, and they asked questions one after another.

"Nan Qiao, did you really invent the nano-repair machine mentioned in the news?" A girl with a ponytail asked with her eyes wide open and a look of anticipation on her face.

"Of course it's true!" A boy wearing glasses next to him quickly answered, "Nan Qiao won the championship in the International Youth Invention and Creation Competition! The nano-repair machine must be her masterpiece."

Nan Qiao smiled slightly and nodded.

At this moment, there was a burst of exclamations from the crowd.

"Wow, that's so cool! How did you come up with the idea of ​​inventing this?" A girl with short hair stood on tiptoe, trying hard to make her voice heard.

"I'm just usually interested in science and technology, and then I kept trying and exploring during the research process, and I got this result." Nan Qiao explained casually.

"So how does this nano-repair machine repair things? Can you tell us the principle?" A tall boy looked at her with curiosity.

Nan Qiao pondered for a moment, then began to explain in plain language: "Nano-repair machines primarily utilize tiny nano-scale robots. They can penetrate the interior of objects, precisely locate damaged areas, and then repair them using special materials and techniques..."

The students listened attentively, and burst into exclamations of praise from time to time.

Some students even used their mobile phones to record videos, carefully recording what Nan Qiao said.

On the outskirts of the crowd, many students were trying hard to squeeze in, wanting to get close to this campus star.

The whole campus was in an uproar because of Nan Qiao's appearance. Her name and her invention became the hottest topics among her classmates.

Nan Qiao walked through the noisy crowd and headed straight for the dean's office.

Along the way, many classmates cast curious and strange glances at Nan Qiao, wondering where she was going. Nan Qiao had no time to pay attention to these things.

Arriving at the office door, Nan Qiao raised his hand and knocked lightly on the door, and a steady voice said "Come in" from inside.

She pushed open the door and was slightly startled by the scene inside. The principal and the dean of studies were both there, and their expressions were slightly serious.

The principal spoke first, his voice loud and firm: "Nan Qiao, you're here. We were just discussing how Lan Xuxue maliciously locked you in the restroom."

The principal looked at the dean of studies with a sharp gaze. "I didn't realize that the dean of studies had mishandled this matter and seemed to be covering it up. This is a dereliction of duty on the part of the school management. I apologize."

Nan Qiao opened her mouth in surprise, not knowing what to say for a moment.

The principal continued, "After discussion among the school's top management, the Dean of Studies will no longer be teaching at the school from today onwards. We will be expelling him."

"As for Lan Xuxue, her behavior has seriously violated school rules and regulations. We will also expel her."

"The school is a place that pursues fairness and cultivates talents. Such vile behavior will never be tolerated."

The dean lowered his head, his face full of regret. He wanted to say something but swallowed it back.

Nan Qiao recovered and said, "Thank you, Principal, for doing justice for me."

The principal looked at Nan Qiao with a smile and said, "You are the pride of our school. Your talent and hard work are obvious to everyone. We cannot let you suffer injustice and not be treated fairly."

"If you have any problems at school in the future, you can always come to me."

Nan Qiao nodded, and a big stone in her heart finally fell to the ground.

She knew that from this moment on, all the injustices and grievances she had suffered would become a thing of the past.

After the principal and Nan Qiao talked for a few more words about her invention and future study plans, Nan Qiao left the office.

Nan Qiao walked briskly back to Class C classroom. The noisy voices seemed to be paused, becoming quiet in an instant, and then bursting into even more enthusiastic cheers.

Classmate Wang Xiaoxuan's eyes lit up like stars. She jumped up from her seat and rushed to Nan Qiao.

She held onto Nan Qiao's arm tightly with both hands, her voice trembling with excitement: "Qiao Qiao, you're amazing! You don't even know that everyone was discussing the news of your award just now!"
