Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Ten minutes later, when Shan Yue came out of the shower wiping her wet hair, she realized that the principal’s group was still waiting in the living room. Her expression darkened. “It’s so late. What are you still doing at my house? Get out.”
“We’re here to express our condolences. We still have something to tell you…” The principal quickly smiled apologetically.
Shan Yue’s cold attitude made him feel a little embarrassed. In the past, he would have flown into a rage. However, Shan Yue was now protected by Han Lin, so he had no choice but to endure his temper and continue to flatter her.
“I have nothing to say to you. Everything will be handled by my lawyer. Please leave. I don’t want to repeat myself.” Before the principal could finish, Shan Yue interrupted impatiently. If the principal had been half as nice when she came to the principal’s office to ask for a solution, she wouldn’t have blown things up.
Now that he knew that she was not to be trifled with, he pretended to be pitiful and came over to beg for forgiveness. He just gave some gifts and money and sent her away. Shan Yue was not so tolerant and magnanimous, and she did not like this at all!
“This…” Seeing that the situation was not right, the dean pulled the principal, who still wanted to continue pestering him, and said in a low voice, “Anyway, we’ve already convinced Shan Yue’s parents. We’ll come again next time.”
Only then did the principal stop. At the thought of his precarious position as the principal, he retracted his foot that was about to step out. “Shan Yue, the teachers have taught you for almost three years. Even if they don’t have any credit, they have worked hard…”
“Do you want me to call Han Lin over and personally invite you out?” Shan Yue glanced over coldly.
As expected, as soon as she said this, the principal quickly left without needing the other teachers to persuade him. He wiped his sweat like a mouse seeing a cat and said, “Alright, alright, alright. We’ll leave first. These gifts are from the teachers. You must accept them.”
“Take everything away. Don’t leave a single thing behind!” Shan Yue said coldly.
The few people from the Shan family standing at the side were already stunned by Shan Yue’s series of actions, especially Sun Ling. She was dumbfounded as she watched the principal rub her eyes in disbelief a few times when he begged Shan Yue. She suspected that she was hallucinating.
Seeing the principal and the others chased away by Shan Yue, Sun Ling finally couldn’t help but cry out, “Hey, hey, hey, what are you doing? There’s still 50,000 yuan inside!”
With that, Sun Ling quickly went to the door to stop them. “Principal, teachers, sit down again…”
Shan Chen couldn’t stand Sun Ling’s greedy look anymore. He frowned fiercely and said hesitantly, “Mom, don’t be like this!”
“Like what? How can we chase the teachers who come to our house as guests away? It’s fine if Shan Yue is insensible, but you guys are still so insensible…” Sun Ling muttered as she pulled them home.
“Stupid thing.” Shan Yue was disgusted by Sun Ling’s appearance. She spat out these words in a low voice, turned around, returned to her room, and slammed the door.
Seeing that the person involved had already left and that Sun Ling was overly enthusiastic, the principal quickly stuffed the envelope containing 50,000 yuan into Sun Ling’s hand. “Then Mother Sun, please accept our kindness for Shan Yue first. It’s getting late. We have to leave.”
After everyone left, the Shan family fell silent again. Looking at the gifts all over the ground and Sun Ling counting the money with a smile, Shan Chen felt embarrassed to have such a mother for the first time. His face turned red as he said, “Mom, you shouldn’t be like this. You’re embarrassing Sister too much.”
Shan Yue had already made it clear that she did not accept any of their goodwill, but Sun Ling was still rushing to collect the money. This was too degrading!
However, when Sun Ling heard Shan Chen’s words, she immediately exploded. “Embarrassed? What embarrassment? You just want to say that your mother is embarrassing you, right?”
Shan Chen was speechless from the questioning and could only criticize Sun Ling silently with his eyes.
Sun Ling became even angrier and retorted loudly, “This is 50,000 yuan. If that lunatic Shan Yue doesn’t want it, I want it! Do you know how long it takes for your parents to earn 50,000 yuan? The principal also said that this is mental compensation for Shan Yue. What’s wrong with her mother holding it for her?”
