Chapter 355: Chapter 355 Shen Mianmian Scammed Money 2

Just as Shen Mianmian arrived at the classroom door, she was called into the office. Upon entering, she saw more than twenty students standing inside—all the students who had asked her to buy hair ties for them.

Their eyes were blazing with anger, and their faces full of animosity towards her.

Seeing this scene, how could Shen Mianmian not understand what was going on?

The headmaster hadn’t seen Mianmian for a while and was surprised at how much she had changed. He composed himself before asking, "Shen Mianmian, they have all reported you for cheating them out of money. What’s this all about?"

Speaking of which, the headmaster was also puzzled. Why did it seem that every issue could be linked to Shen Mianmian?

If it had been the Shen Mianmian of the past, he would have expelled her long ago. But the current Mianmian was not only the link between the school and the town’s business owners but also a top student, ranking first in three subjects.

She was his pride to flaunt wherever he went, casting him in a tremendously favorable light.

So even though more than twenty students had reported her together, the headmaster still addressed the situation with a gentle demeanor.

Yet she was not panicked at all and calmly replied, "Headmaster, they all asked me to buy things for them."

No sooner had she finished speaking than a girl retorted, "Headmaster, look, she’s admitted it. She took our money but didn’t buy the items."

Hearing this, the headmaster’s face also showed difficulty. He had thought there was a misunderstanding, but it seemed that Shen Mianmian really did take the money.

"Shen Mianmian, why did you take the money without buying the items for them?"

By then, he had already figured out a way out for Mianmian, as long as she said she couldn’t find the items, he would let her refund the money, and the matter would be considered resolved.

Shen Mianmian blinked, "I did buy the items for them though!"

"You’re lying. You didn’t buy anything."

"Right, we never received anything. You’re just a scammer."

A few female classmates started to raise their voices in agitation, glaring at Shen Mianmian with teeth clenched in anger.

Headmaster: "..."

The commotion from these students was giving him a headache, but he also sensed that something was off, so he signaled everyone to calm down.

"You say you bought them, but they say they didn’t receive anything. What’s going on here?"

Shen Mianmian looked innocent, "Headmaster, I don’t know what happened. We had agreed that I would bring the items on Monday, but as soon as I arrived at school, I was called here."

The girls: "..."

Headmaster: "..."

Understanding the situation, the headmaster asked, "Are you saying that you did buy the items for them?"

"Yes, I did!" Shen Mianmian nodded.

"She’s talking nonsense," one girl said excitedly, pointing at Shen Mianmian. "She spent all the money on new clothes."

"The money for new clothes came from a progress reward and from working last Sunday," Shen Mianmian explained calmly, then, under everyone’s watchful eyes, she took out a notebook and a bunch of hair ties from her backpack. "These are what you asked me to buy for you."

Upon seeing Shen Mianmian take out the hair ties, the headmaster smiled with a face full of wrinkles, "You didn’t let me down; I knew you wouldn’t have taken their money."

After speaking, he turned to the students who had come to complain and rebuked them, "You should ascertain the truth of a matter before unjustly accusing someone like that."

From the moment Shen Mianmian brought out the hair ties, the female students were already stunned. After hearing the headmaster’s words, they immediately turned their accusation towards the girls who had urged them to go to the office.

"Headmaster, it was them who said Shen Mianmian was cheating us and had spent our money on clothes," they said.
