The Female Cannon Fodder With Boundless Merits
Chapter 575 - 579: Singlehood (4)

Chapter 575: Chapter 579: Singlehood (4)

The next day, a sensational post pinned itself to the top of Jinghua University’s forum homepage.

"Is it human nature’s distortion or the degeneration of morals that has brought the students of Jinghua University, pillars of Hua Country’s university students, to such a state where one can only sigh at the decaying academic atmosphere....."

A lengthy headline attracted the attention of most students at Jinghua University and quickly fermented, catching the notice of the leadership.

At the same time, an audio recording was sent to the leaders’ emails.

Considering the audio, in another context, it wouldn’t count for much.

It was just a few students gossiping about others with some subjective speculation.

It just happened to appear at this crucial juncture.

As a prestigious school, its academic environment had become increasingly ineffective.

Instead of contemplating how to study seriously, students were corrupted by various capitalistic influences, with their minds preoccupied with dating and shopping.

They were the cornerstones for the nation’s prosperity, but if even the students of a renowned school displayed such behaviors, what then can be expected of the future?

The content of the post indeed contained exaggerations, but after fermenting, it attracted not only the campus’s attention but also that of the larger society.

Even if school leaders wanted to explain, the public wouldn’t listen.

They would only choose to hear what they wanted to hear.

Therefore, if this matter wasn’t handled well, the impact would be enormous and could not afford the leaders’ leniency.

Even Xiao Xi and Zhi Zhi, who shared a dorm with Su Li, didn’t expect that they would be made examples of by the school in a public criticism.

However, during the announcement, their names were withheld to avoid making their campus lives more difficult.

Meanwhile, the school organized several events to purify the school’s discipline and rectify the ethos, determined to strike against the deviant influences beyond education.

"Mo Xiaoxi, Tan Zhi, the homeroom teacher wants you to come to the office."

When the class monitor delivered the message, Mo Xiaoxi and Tan Zhi were in the midst of a gathering of girls, making faces and gossiping about Su Li, who was sitting alone in a secluded corner.

Especially with the addition of Mo Xiaoxi and Tan Zhi, who shared a dorm with Su Li, the speculations about Su Li seemed particularly credible.

Different from boys, girls’ minds often seem more complicated.

Sometimes, even if you haven’t done anything, there will be people who disapprove of you, thus the saying: "Why should women make life difficult for other women?"

Women often face harsher judgment from their female peers.

Why are mother-in-law and daughter-in-law relationships often so difficult? Because many mothers-in-law endured hardship themselves, and once their time to shine comes, they want their daughters-in-law to go through the same.

Especially if you are beautiful, capable, academically successful, and popular with boys...you will receive a lot of backlash from other women.

It’s as if demeaning others might somehow prevent themselves from appearing inferior.

Is it that difficult to acknowledge someone else’s excellence?

Upon reaching the office, Mo Xiaoxi and Tan Zhi discovered that not only was the homeroom teacher present, but two vice principals had also shown up.

Mo Xiaoxi and Tan Zhi were the best performing students in the class apart from Su Li, and the homeroom teacher did not anticipate such behavior from them.

Especially Tan Zhi, who had a good reputation among students.

The homeroom teacher had a very positive impression of her, known for being charitable and helpful... even managing to mediate conflicts among students quite well, despite Su Li’s less sociable nature.

The homeroom teacher was even confirming with the vice-principals whether there had been some mistake.

But facing the irrefutable audio, no one could argue.

To say that this audio clip really amounted to nothing would be an understatement.

Gossipy people spreading badmouthing behind others and creating a few painless rumors is a common occurrence.

Mo Xiaoxi and Tan Zhi couldn’t imagine that they would receive criticism because of it.

As soon as they left the office, the two rushed furiously towards the classroom.

Mo Xiaoxi, even more enraged, stormed into the classroom like a rocket launcher, rolled up her sleeves, and tried to slap Su Li across the face.

However, she didn’t anticipate that she wasn’t dealing with a softie but rather a heated, thorny piece of steel.

Yes, as everyone has learned in physics class, every action has an equal and opposite reaction.

The force of Mo Xiaoxi’s strongest slap rebounded back onto herself.

"Slap..." A blood-red handprint appeared clearly on her cheek.

A step behind, Tan Zhi pointed at Su Li with resentment, "Su Li, I didn’t expect you to be this kind of person, hitting Xiao Xi now..."

Su Li stood up, lazily leaning on the table corner, and wagged a finger.

"You’re wrong."

"First, that slap was from her own hand, who knows what’s wrong with her, liking to hit herself."

"Second, what kind of person do you say I am? As if you know me so well... let me clarify in advance, we’re not close."

After Su Li’s sharp sequence of words, the other classmates began to realize something different about Su Li.

She had a commanding presence that demanded respect.

Tan Zhi clenched her fists, her voice breaking as she spoke, "Don’t tell me you don’t know about that audio clip..."

Su Li: "Oh, that thing, I know about it."

"I recorded it. You’re allowed to talk behind people’s backs, but I’m not allowed to record it and let the teachers and leaders listen?"

"What’s the big deal, I love studying, not boys; how does that bother you?"

"In your eyes, the men you can’t match, the men you only dare fantasize about in your hearts, I simply don’t fancy them... did I stab your lung?"

"They have good studies, knowledge is important... I just love to study, striving to be someone beneficial and constructive to the country."

Mo Xiaoxi: "....."

Tan Zhi: "..."

The classmates watching: "..."

The school leaders standing outside: "....."

Initially, Su Li mocked Mo Xiaoxi and Tan Zhi with cold indifference, sharply poking at their egos.

But it was just poking Tan Zhi in a sore spot, making her explode in fury.

Without Su Li, she would have been the center of attention, and with her slick persona, if not beloved by everyone, she would have been immensely popular.

But the presence of the original owner dimmed her shine, especially since the boy she liked first admired Su Li’s appearance, which was an insult to her charm.

Tan Zhi and Mo Xiaoxi felt so provoked by Su Li’s words they almost wanted to explode on the spot, but in the next second, Su Li’s tone shifted.

From cold mockery to a powerful declaration of intent.

This student is different...

Her ideological awareness is high, very good... Students in their school should indeed reach such a level of consciousness.

The two vice-principals, quietly standing outside the door, led the applause, admiringly looking at Su Li: "This student, you, are quite impressive."
