Reborn not to be a simp, the school beauty's whole family goes crazy

Chen Dong's father is powerful and influential; he can make him lose his job or even send him to jail at any time.

Thinking of this, Pan Hongda quickly suppressed such thoughts.

But the idea was deeply imprinted in his mind and he couldn't shake it off.

It would pop out and bother him from time to time, like a ghost.

On the surface, Pan Hongda tried to appear calm.

But the slight sweat on his forehead betrayed his nervousness.

Pan Hongda, his face cold, raised his voice and demanded, "Tao Hao from Class 8, right? What exactly caused your fight?"

"Now tell me everything clearly, without hiding anything. If you dare to lie, you will face the consequences!"

Pan Hongda's voice echoed in the office, carrying an undeniable authority.

When the teacher asked, Tao Hao quickly gathered his thoughts.

Then, taking a deep breath, she began to recount: "Teacher Pan, this is what happened last Saturday afternoon."

“I went out to buy things for my family, and then I happened to see a well-dressed middle-aged woman on the street.”

"His clothes and appearance clearly indicated that he was not an ordinary person; he was very glamorous."

"At the time, she was driving a three-wheeled vehicle, and Chen Dong was sitting in the passenger seat."

"They chatted and laughed all the way, and were as intimate as lovers in the throes of passion."

"Moreover, there were large and small bags of gifts in the carriage of that three-wheeled vehicle. Isn't that obviously suspicious?"

At this point, Tao Hao glanced at Chen Dong and said with a sneer, "Given Chen Dong's ordinary family background, his parents are just making a fixed salary."

"Even if leaders in government agencies have high salaries and good benefits, they don't spend money like this."

"Where did they get the money to buy these things and take a ride in a three-wheeled motorcycle costing several thousand yuan?"

"Therefore, I maintain that Chen Dong was kept by a rich woman."

"When I saw this, I was so angry. I felt that Chen Dong was bringing shame to our school."

"That Chen Dong guy is simply..."

Chu Mengran, who was listening from the side, was extremely anxious. Before Tao Hao could finish speaking, she immediately spoke up to refute him.

Her face flushed bright red, as red as a ripe apple, her eyes were firm, and it seemed as if a flame of anger was burning in them.

"I don't believe it! Chen Dong is definitely not that kind of person!"

"Given his family's financial situation, there's absolutely no need for him to do something like this."

"Although Chen Dong is generous, it's his own saved pocket money. He's an honest and kind person!"

"He often helps his classmates, you can't wrong him like this."

Guo Miao, standing to the side, nodded repeatedly, glaring at Tao Hao like a little lion that had been thoroughly provoked.

His eyes burned with rage, as if they could scorch Tao Hao. He muttered, "That's right, Brother Dong isn't the kind of person you're talking about. Don't spread rumors and slander here!"

“We know Dong Ge's character best. If he knew you were slandering him like this, he would definitely not let you off the hook.”

Tao Hao, upon hearing Chu Mengran and Guo Miao's rebuttals, not only showed no remorse but instead looked at Chu Mengran with a cold smile.

A mocking smile curled at the corner of his lips, a smile tinged with contempt.

"Oh? So your defense of him means you're admitting that Chen Dong's father embezzled funds?"

"Otherwise, where would a high school student like him get so much money to squander on gifts?"

"Especially those three-wheeled vehicles, which cost several thousand yuan. Even if his father didn't embezzle, he probably would have to go without food or drink for more than ten months to afford one."

"You wouldn't just give away something this expensive, would you?"

"Don't be fooled by his appearance."

This question was like a bombshell, leaving Chu Mengran speechless.

She opened her mouth, wanting to refute, but couldn't find a suitable reason.

I stood there, stunned, my mind blank.

But soon, Chu Mengran came to her senses and angrily accused Tao Hao, "You're making baseless accusations. The two things have absolutely nothing to do with each other."

"Don't try to confuse the issue and deliberately smear Chen Dong."

"Chen Dong's father is an upright man, how could he possibly embezzle? That's pure malicious speculation!"

Yu Qin stood aside, listening quietly to their argument.

Hearing Tao Hao ask this question, he was somewhat surprised.

Subconsciously, I followed Tao Hao's line of thought and realized that his reasoning seemed to make some sense.

Yu Qin secretly pondered: If Chen Dong's father wasn't embezzling, how could he possibly give Chen Dong so much pocket money on a regular basis?

"This pocket money is probably more than a hundred yuan a month, while most workers in society only earn about fifty to seventy yuan a month."

"Chen Dong's pocket money is almost as much as the wages of workers in society. The difference is too big."

Thinking this way, Yu Qin hesitated.

She didn't speak up for Chen Dong as firmly as before, but instead looked around nervously.

His eyes kept scanning the faces of the crowd, intending to observe first and see how things would develop.

After all, the issues involved seem to be getting more and more complicated.

Pan Hongda stood aside, listening to their back-and-forth conversation, and was also stunned for a moment.

Upon closer examination, I realized that Tao Hao's words did make some sense.

She couldn't help but look at Chen Dong, her eyes filled with doubt and scrutiny, as if trying to see through him.

Chen Dong noticed Pan Hongda's gaze, sneered at Tao Hao, and thought to himself, "Since you're courting death, then don't blame me."

Then, Chen Dong, with a cold face and eyes like two sharp swords, stared straight at Shen Yue.

He questioned, "Shen Yue, do you share Tao Hao's view?"

The voice was as cold as frost and snow in the dead of winter.

Shen Yue was startled by Chen Dong's sudden question, and her body trembled involuntarily.

Although Shen Yue wanted to steadfastly support her white moonlight.

But whenever Shen Yue thought of her impoverished family, the days when she had to wait for rice and oil to cook, and her deal with Chen Dong, she was overwhelmed.

More importantly, without these things, her parents would suddenly lose confidence in the possibility of her being married off casually for a little money.

Shen Yue stammered, "I... I just think Tao Hao makes a good point."

"But only you know whether that's true or not..."

The sound was as soft as a mosquito's buzz.

Seeing Shen Yue's wavering attitude, Chen Dong secretly sighed in regret.

If Shen Yue continues to stick to her previous attitude, then I can take care of her while I'm at it.

That way, I won't have this guy bothering me at school all the time.

Unfortunately, Shen Yue changed her attitude at the last minute.

Tao Hao was surprised by Shen Yue's wavering attitude.

He looked at Shen Yue, staring at her incredulously, his face full of incomprehension.

It seemed as if he was questioning Shen Yue with his eyes: "Shen Yue, how could you betray me? Have you forgotten all the wonderful times we shared?"
