She called several people to the office, and after listening to their accounts, her face also looked grim.

Compared to the principal, she trusted these students of hers more, because she had already gotten a sense of what kind of person Qi Lian was from their previous dealings.

Qi Weixin hadn’t attended class the entire afternoon, probably because she was too ashamed to show up.

Before the evening self-study session, Ruan Jianguo returned from the city with Shu Jiao, took a trip to the hospital, brought some food for Ruan Jiandang who was still guarding there, and also brought some for his daughter and the boys.

Seeing Shu Jiao, Ruan Lei and the others were eating. Ruan Jiaojiao, who had a small appetite, finished first, then told her about what happened at school like it was a joke. Ruan Jianguo burst out laughing after hearing it, patting Ruan Lei’s head and praised, "Well done, lad."

Shu Jiao, however, was somewhat silent, not as cheerful as Ruan Jianguo, but rather worried.

This matter seemed like a satisfying reprieve to the children, but to her, it was not that simple. Especially after witnessing the crookedness in this profession, she knew that this wouldn’t really hurt Qi Lian.

No matter how Qi Weixin performed in the exam, he could fully throw off the responsibility by just saying the child was confused and did something regrettable in a moment of folly... At most, he would bear the blame for not educating strictly.

And such a consequence would mean that her daughter’s and Ruan Lei’s future lives in junior high would be very difficult. Qi Lian was a person of dark thoughts and wouldn’t care whether he was offending a child or an adult.

She pondered while stroking Ruan Jiaojiao’s small head, originally not intending to deal with these matters so soon. But now, it seemed that some malignant tumor had to be removed earlier, otherwise it wouldn’t just harm her child, but many other students as well.

"Tonight, Mom will accompany you during the exam, and then we will go back home together afterward," Shu Jiao said.

"Okay," Ruan Jiaojiao nodded without doubt, munching on the apple in her hand, her little mouth shiny and her appearance soft and cute, melting Shu Jiao’s heart.

The evening self-study session arrived as scheduled, with the principal already waiting in his office with the exam papers prepared by Teacher Gu. Considering the commotion caused by the first-year students, the principal took it very seriously and summoned the top ten students in the grade to take the test.

Once the bell for the evening self-study rang, everyone conscientiously arrived, only Qi Weixin was the last to come, her eyes red, clearly showing she had cried a lot.

After she entered, nobody dared to look at her, she just kept her head down and found her seat to sit down.

It was Qi Lian who had brought her over. Compared to his furious demeanor at noon, Qi Lian now seemed calm, but his expression still changed upon seeing Shu Jiao standing outside the principal’s office.

Shu Jiao took the initiative to greet him, "Teacher Qi, long time no see."

Qi Lian looked at her, and as old memories slowly resurfaced, his gaze turned murky, and after a while, he finally said, "Long time no see."

He glanced at the tall and strong man standing beside her, suddenly thought of something, and asked with a hint of incredulity, "Is that Ruan Lei your son?"

"No, he’s my nephew. My daughter is Ruan Jiaojiao," Shu Jiao answered.

Qi Lian’s expression stiffened again, never expecting that the student who constantly opposed him would be a member of the Ruan family. Recalling past events, he felt as uneasy as Qi Weixin did initially and couldn’t face Shu Jiao.
