She doesn't want to pretend anymore

"Student Manshu, don't cry. Director Zhou just said something he didn't mean to offend you."

"Yes, he has a foul mouth. Don't be sad because of what he said."

"What bad student? I think Yan Manshu is a good student. It's just that some people have bad intentions! Just like Su Dongpo looked at Huaisu." Teacher Kong was really offended by Director Zhou. He didn't forget to diss him even when he was in Renhe.

Director Zhou: “…” Although I used to teach biology, don’t think that I can’t understand what the old man is saying.

He didn't expect Yan Manshu to suddenly do this. Of course, he didn't think he was going too far. Instead, he felt that this female classmate was too scheming.

He starts crying when he disagrees with something. Isn't this intentional to make people misunderstand him?

"Student Yan Manshu, please don't talk nonsense. I have no prejudice against you. I just hope you understand that rumors are easy to spread. When you raise doubts, think more about it."

Manshu seemed to be holding back tears: "Since Director Zhou knew that spreading rumors would harm students' physical and mental health, why did he believe the rumors on the big-character poster when he didn't catch me cheating?"

"You have two sets of standards for me and others? I wonder if I did something wrong and offended Director Zhou." Manshu hesitated for a moment, "Or is it because of Director Gao?"

Speaking of Director Gao, Director Zhou's face changed: "Student Yan Manshu, I am just talking about the facts, please don't talk nonsense."

"Director Zhou!" The principal was irritated by Mansu's words.

He knew that Director Zhou's restlessness was related to Xiao Gao.

Yan Manshu was right. He knew the harm of spreading rumors, but he concluded that the students cheated just because Manshu was related to Director Gao.

After finding out that the person had not cheated, he still refused to give up and insisted that the person retake the exam.

Don't think he can't see what Director Zhou is up to.

If it weren't for his older brother, the principal really wouldn't want Director Zhou to stay in the school.

"Principal, I really didn't mean anything else." Director Zhou felt a little weak when he saw the principal getting angry.

The principal gave him a warning look and said, "Okay, shut up. You don't need to deal with this matter. Please leave now."

"Why can't I participate? Principal, I still believe that the student who posted the poster is innocent. We can't let such a child who dares to speak out get hurt just because of the pressure from the Yan family? Who will dare to tell the truth in the future?"

Director Zhou became more and more excited as he spoke, and he felt that what he said was very reasonable: "If students don't dare to speak up for justice in school, will they dare to speak the truth when they enter society?"

"Are you exaggerating?" The principal really wanted to slap him away.

Instead, Manshu tugged at the principal's clothes and said, "Principal, since Director Zhou is determined to uphold justice, let me ask you one question: what if it turns out that the person who posted the big-character poster is not innocent?"

Director Zhou blurted out: "Then I'll leave it to you!"

Manshu curled his lips, he took the bait so quickly.

"How can I punish you? After all, you are a teacher. However, I hope the director can apologize to me publicly, at the flag-raising ceremony every Monday."

The flag-raising ceremony every Monday is a regular meeting for the whole school. Students who have made serious mistakes usually make self-examinations after the flag-raising ceremony.

In front of the whole school, that would be a disgrace to you.

"Public apology?" Director Zhou looked stunned, then his face darkened.

He didn't expect Yan Manshu to be so difficult to deal with. How dare she ask him, a dean of studies, to apologize to her publicly?
