Chapter 316: Want her to be the scapegoat? No way (5)
Translator: Misty Cloud Translations Editor: Misty Cloud Translations
The moment Elder Yun Xiang saw that elderly man, he froze instantly.
He lowered his head, cupped his fist in his hands: “Grand elder.”
The grand elder?
Ye Qing Luo has seen in the handbook previously, there were a total of fifteen elders in the elder quarters.
But only seven were in power over the school matters.
Elder Yun Xiang was ranked second and he was the acting overall in charge when the grand elder Yun Duan was not around.
As for the rest of the elders, there were either assisting in other branches or travelled around to promote the Academy.
The grand elder was a relatively mysterious one among the elders.
Ye Qing Luo had sensed that there was someone behind the curtains initially but had never expected it to be Elder Yun Duan.
“I have investigated this matter, Student Ye did nothing wrong.” Elder Yun Duan’s gaze shifted from Ye Qing Luo to Liu Xue Yue, “I saw everything that had just happened earlier from the back of the curtains.”
Liu Xue Yue’s face turned as green as leafy vegetables as she suddenly knelt in front of the grand elder.
She was in the Academy for five years and was cleared of Yun Duan’s status.
Even Yun Xiang had to show respect to some degree in front of the grand elder.
If Elder Yun Duan had been behind the curtains all this while, then… her heated action of hitting Ye Qing Luo but got intercepted by elder Yun Xiang… was clearly taken note by him?
Including…. The threats from elder Yun Xiang to Ye Qing Luo, he had heart it loud and clear?
The more she thought, Liu Xue Yue couldn’t help but break into a cold sweat.
In the Academy, she was all along up set up on high, revolving around the leader.
In addition to her own means and abilities, it was because of her vice president’s identity and Elder Yun Xiang’s support.
But…….
She wasn’t too close to elder Yun Duan and by the looks of it, he was on Ye Qing Luo’s side.
“As the vice president of the faculty council, knowing the rules and breaking them, even colluding with the elders in an attempt to cover up the fault and forcibly pushing them to innocent students is a shame of the college!”
Elder Yun Duan gave a cold sneer, a stern and majestic look in his eyes: “From now on, student Liu Xue Yue shall temporarily step down from the vice president’s duties, student Liu Xue Lan will take over, student Liu Xue Yue will receive a major demerit as a warning to others.”
When the news of her position of vice president being suspended was announced, Liu Xue Yue sat down on the ground stiffly and her eyes widened in astonishment.
Her usual aloof and mighty look was replaced by a battered and beaten expression.
It was no longer important for Liu Xue Yue to remember what was reported.
The most critical thing was she was suspended.
She would no longer have the authority to step into the faculty council, which means she would not get to see Si Mu Yan!
“Grand elder! Grand Elder, I have learned my mistake, I am willing to record any number of demerits but please do not suspend my duties…. Even if I am not the vice president, I can just be a basic member of the faculty council!”
Elder Yun Duan’s face remained solemn as he cast a side glance on the Liu Xue Yue who was sitting on the ground, without the slightest pity and cherished for her: “Now, bring her out and announce the news to the Academy!”
A few guards came and dragged Liu Xue Yue out of the elder quarters before she had the chance to respond.
Shortly after, Yun Duan swept a cold glance across to Yun Xiang.
Yun Xiang’s body was tensed up, his head bowed low and dared not make a sound.
There was nothing he could explained after being caught in the act of covering up Liu Xue Yue and threatening a student.
While Yun Xiang was in fear, Yun Duan did not mention anything about punishing Yun Xiang, instead he threw his sight towards Ye Qing Luo.
“Student Ye, this matter is due to the negligence of the elder quarters and almost got you accused, I apologize on behalf of the elder quarter.”
Ye Qing Luo’s eyes flashed brightly, her pink lips curved slightly: “I am relieved to have an elder with such strict and impartial attitude.”
“Is Student Ye satisfied with the punishment given to Student Liu?”
