Chapter 468: Chapter 468 Protective Mother (4)_1

She turned to Fu Juan and said, "Do you realize what you’re lacking? Quickly correct yourself. As a teacher, we must not overlook mistakes, no matter how small. This is an issue of attitude. You and your wishy-washy ways of dealing with things must change. Learn from Teacher Shu properly."

The homeroom teacher knew this was giving her a way to save face and quickly pushed Wa Yiting beside her.

"Wa Yiting, apologize to Ruan Jiaojiao properly."

Wa Yiting, with eyes reddened, walked up to Ruan Jiaojiao, who was still drinking from her bottle, and bowed in apology, "Ruan Jiaojiao, I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have taken your seat, I’m sorry, please forgive me." As she finished speaking and lowered her head, tears streamed down her face.

Ruan Jiaojiao glanced at her and said, "I don’t accept your apology."

Life in this era was hard; Wa Yiting needed a lot of shrewdness to survive, Ruan Jiaojiao knew, but that was never a reason for her to persistently persecute her.

Her suffering was never caused by her; why should she have to forgive the hurt done to her just because the other was suffering?

Whether in her past life or this one, Ruan Jiaojiao refused to forgive.

Wa Yiting probably didn’t expect Ruan Jiaojiao to refuse her apology. Hearing this, she froze for a moment, then cried even harder, but at this time, no one felt pity or sympathy for her.

Just as Ruan Jiaojiao had said, she suffered and her life was tough, but none of that was an excuse for her mistakes.

Fu Juan was a person of high awareness; she quickly recognized her mistake. In this matter, from beginning to end, she should not have glossed things over, as Shu Jiao had said, a single ant hole can cause the collapse of a great dike. She couldn’t just overlook Wa Yiting’s minor wrongdoings out of sympathy or pity, even foregoing a proper apology, expecting Ruan Jiaojiao to choose forgiveness.

She too crouched down and looked at Ruan Jiaojiao, "Student Jiaojiao, the teacher was wrong too, can you forgive me?"

"Of course," Ruan Jiaojiao nodded with a smile, her head lowered as she pulled a piece of chocolate from her pocket: "Teacher, Jiaojiao forgives you, please have some candy."

"Thank you," the homeroom teacher accepted the chocolate with mixed emotions, feeling ashamed for not seeing as clearly as a child.

With the situation amicably resolved here, the principal took the opportunity to speak out, "Shu Jiao, the young people now are indeed not as rigorous in their attitude as we were back in our day, but they do admit to their mistakes promptly, which is good, don’t you agree?"

Seeing that Ruan Jiaojiao had let it go, Shu Jiao was naturally willing to let things slide as well, and she smiled, "That’s true, Teacher Fu is quite good, young, but she is sure to be more accomplished than us in the future."

After speaking, she turned to Teacher Fu, "I hope you won’t mind that I meddled."

"No, no, no, the fault was all mine," the homeroom teacher immediately shook her head, looking embarrassed.

Hearing this, Shu Jiao dropped the subject, and looked at Ruan Jiaojiao, asking her and Xiu Xi to follow the teacher back to the office, but Wa Yiting spoke up wanting to stay, "Teacher Fu, I have a few words to say to Wa Yiting, may I?"

"Of course," Teacher Fu nodded, greeted the principal, and then left with Ruan Jiaojiao and Xiu Xi.

Ruan Jiaojiao looked at Shu Jiao skeptically, but Shu Jiao waved at her gently. Ruan Jiaojiao could only take back her gaze and follow the homeroom teacher out first.
