"Teacher Yang should know what Ye Wanwan's family background is like. The word 'poor' will cause Ye Wanwan a lot of harm, not to mention the extremely insulting word 'bitch.' What's wrong with me asking her to apologize to Ye Wanwan?"

Chen Dong spoke with righteous indignation, his words tinged with dissatisfaction.

I did nothing wrong, Lao Yang, what right do you have to fire me?

This is also why he didn't let Liu Yumo make a move. Once he did, even if he was in the right, he would still be wrong three-tenths of the time, and Old Yang would definitely not give him another chance.

"Is that really the case?" Yang Xuesen asked skeptically.

"The whole class is witnessing. Teacher Yang can ask me anything. If I tell even one lie, I'll leave immediately." Chen Dong clenched his fist, gave a thumbs-up, and pointed to the classroom behind him.

"I will definitely ask for the truth, but even if what you say is true, it's not your place to uphold justice." Yang Xuesen glared at Chen Dong, but his tone was no longer as angry as before.

"Ms. Yang, do you think Ye Wanwan would dare to stand up for herself and demand justice? And which of the classmates would dare to offend Shu Ya for her sake?"

Chen Dong countered with a question, then patted his chest, "Only Liu Yumo and I can do it."

"Dong-ge is right," Liu Yumo continued, playing the straight man.

Yang Xuesen didn't refute them, but he was speechless at the two of them, especially at Chen Dong.

His pursuit of Shuya was no secret in the class, nor was it a secret to him. Don't underestimate the homeroom teacher's knowledge of the students' situations.

Sometimes the teachers would even make a joke about it in the office, after all, everyone has a youth.

But why would this kid demand an apology from Shu Ya on behalf of Ye Wanwan?

She even told him about Ye Wanwan's situation, implying that Ye Wanwan's life was difficult and not easy, as if she had taken the wrong medicine.

Don't I know these things better than you? Didn't I tell you these things before?

When did you ever take it to heart?

"Go back to your study hall," Yang Xuesen snapped at the two of them impatiently.

Regardless of whether Chen Dong took the wrong medicine or not, as long as he didn't commit any crimes, that's fine.

And that child, Shuya...

"Ye Wanwan, come out here for a moment."

After telling the two to go back to the classroom, Yang Xuesen didn't rush to find Shuya. Instead, he gently waved to his favorite student, seemingly to inquire about the truth, but more so to show concern and comfort.

After calming Ye Wanwan down, he found Shu Ya in an empty classroom on the top floor.

Regardless of Shuya's personality, she is still just a child. As a teacher, it is our duty and responsibility to guide and comfort her in this situation.

"Teacher Yang, why did you tell Chen Dong that I told you about what happened last night?" Shuya cried, feeling wronged and a little angry.

It was all because of Lao Yang that Chen Dong held a grudge against her, making her lose face in class and become a clown.

"I didn't tell Chen Dong about this."

Yang Xuesen shouldn't take the blame. Chen Dong's question about when Shu Ya said it startled him, but he remained calm and brushed it off.

All I can say is that once a boy regains his senses, his intelligence will once again take over.

Shuya didn't believe it, but she couldn't possibly question the teacher to the end, and besides, there was no point in asking more questions if Lao Yang didn't admit it.

Sobbing, she pleaded pitifully, "Teacher Yang, could you please ask Chen Dong to stop coming to school? His presence disturbs so many people; no one can concentrate on their studies..."

She has the right to say that.

Not from other aspects, but from achievements.

Although she is not a top student, she has consistently ranked in the top ten of her class. She has never fallen out of the top ten since the first year of high school, but she has never broken into the top five.

His grades are very stable; otherwise, how could a mediocre student be qualified to compare his grades with Ye Wanwan and the others?

Why would you want to humiliate yourself when you have nothing better to do?

"Shuya, your teacher believes that we should learn to be tolerant and give more opportunities to students who have made mistakes or are not good at studying." Yang Xuesen earnestly advised and guided her.

Shuya couldn't listen to any of that. All she knew was that she was too ashamed to stay in class, especially now that Chen Dong was back. She was terrified that Chen Dong would come after her.

Moreover, she believes that students who make mistakes should be punished. If bad students who make mistakes deserve more opportunities, then who will give them those opportunities?

"Don't worry about what Chen Dong might do. He wrote a guarantee that he won't cause any more trouble, even if it affects just one person. Otherwise, he'll have to go home permanently. I'll go warn him later, so don't worry," Yang Xuesen reassured him.

Shuya, who was sobbing with her head down, did not respond, but her red eyes seemed to brighten slightly.

"Senior year of high school is one of the most crucial times in your life. Your teacher hopes that you will not be affected by other things in the outside world and that you can devote all your energy to your studies for at least the next six months."

Yang Xuesen comforted and encouraged her, assuring her, "If you encounter any difficulties outside of your studies, you can always ask your teacher for help. Teacher Yang will definitely do his best to help you solve them, okay?"

Shuya didn't respond, she just lowered her head and cried.

These are not the results she wanted.

"I know you're upset, so I'll give you the evening study session to go home and get some rest. Try to put this out of your mind, and tomorrow we'll be the studious Shuya we always are, okay?" Yang Xuesen said.

The word "home" made Shu Ya tremble almost imperceptibly.

Will she really be able to get a proper rest when she goes back?

If she could, she would rather never go back to that suffocating home.

……

Shuya didn't attend evening self-study, and only she knows whether she went home or not. Anyway, Chen Dong wasn't interested in these things, and when Lao Yang came to him to remind him not to affect Shuya, he readily agreed.

Soon evening self-study ended, and the busy day of studying finally came to a pause. Many students showed a rare relaxed smile on their faces.

"School's finally over."

"Jiang Lina, is your family's hair salon still open?"

"Get lost, you idiot! You think you can have the fourth period of self-study? You'll be in for it next semester."

The school offers a fourth evening self-study session, which is a genuine self-study session without teachers, but it is not mandatory and is entirely voluntary for students. Anyone who wants to attend this class can do so.

However, this requirement will be enforced in the second semester of senior year, in order to make senior students go all out to prepare for the college entrance examination, and to study as hard as they can.

"Brother Dong, shall I head out now?"

Liu Yumo put down his book, greeted Chen Dong, and tried to run away.

"Don't forget to memorize the vocabulary; there will be a dictation test tomorrow morning," Chen Dong reminded him.

Liu Yumo immediately deflated like a punctured balloon, and helplessly pulled out an English book to take home.

Soon the classroom was empty, and none of the top students, except for Ye Wanwan, had finished the fourth period.

Of course, she wasn't rolling around; she was waiting to tutor Chen Dong.

Seeing that only Ye Wanwan remained in the front row of the classroom, Chen Dong picked up his math workbook and walked towards her.

"How are you feeling?"

Instead of immediately asking for advice, Chen Dong inquired with concern.

Ye Wanwan knew what Chen Dong was asking, so she gave a soft "hmm" and lowered her head.

What does that mean?

Chen Dong was a little confused and wanted to ask again, but then he heard Ye Wanwan say in a soft voice, "Thank you."

"What?" Chen Dong didn't hear clearly.

Ye Wanwan mustered her courage, looked up at Chen Dong, and said again, "Brother Dong, thank you."

After saying that, she hurriedly and timidly lowered her head, her bangs covering her flushed face.
