Chapter 633: Chapter 633: It Seems Like You Forgot Something

"Principal Wang, you’re covering up for the teacher." Principal Yang wasn’t that angry at first, but hearing Principal Wang’s words, he really got angry.

Would the matter just pass once they left?

Then, didn’t he come all this way with two students for nothing?

"Principal Yang, what you’re saying isn’t right. If you were in my shoes, would you take someone’s word for it just like that?" Principal Wang looked at Shen Mianmian, "When Teacher Wan went to complain, you didn’t immediately conclude that Shen Mianmian had stolen money, did you? The same logic applies, so why can’t you understand when the perspective changes?"

"You..." Principal Yang was at a loss for words.

"Principal Wang, it seems you’ve forgotten something." Shen Mianmian couldn’t help but interject, "It was Wan Dongcheng who went to our school to cause trouble. We came here just wanting an explanation from you. The two situations are completely different and shouldn’t be conflated."

Shen Mianmian pointed out the flaw in his argument.

"Right, the concepts are not the same. It was Wan Dongcheng who came to our school looking for trouble." Principal Yang immediately echoed Shen Mianmian’s words.

Principal Wang: "..."

This young girl, despite her age, was quite articulate.

Just as he was trying to figure out what to say next, Wan Dongcheng’s voice suddenly came from the entrance.

"Principal."

Seeing Wan Dongcheng, Principal Wang’s expression darkened but also relaxed, "Teacher Wan, your arrival is timely. Principal Yang from No. 3 Middle School has reported that you caused a scene at their school. How do you explain this?"

He finished speaking with a stern look on his face, hoping that Wan Dongcheng would come up with a reasonable explanation to deftly handle the situation.

"Principal, here’s how it was: these two are former classmates and cousins of Shen Mianmian. They said that Shen Mianmian hasn’t been home for a long time, and her family is going crazy looking for her. Since I’m acquainted with Shen Mianmian and knew she was studying at No. 3 Middle School, I took them to find her. But Principal Yang wouldn’t listen to me at all and even brought them here to our school," explained Wan Dongcheng.

At these words, Zhao Xinlan and Zhou Siyu were both stunned. Clearly, they hadn’t expected Wan Dongcheng, who spoke so nicely at the school gate, to change his story upon entering.

And the thing was, there didn’t seem to be anything wrong with his explanation.

Zhou Siyu was the first to snap out of it, immediately saying, "Principal, it’s indeed true. I am Shen Mianmian’s cousin, and my family has been searching for her for months."

Having snapped out of it as well, Zhao Xinlan hurriedly added, "I can vouch for that too, I’ve been Shen Mianmian’s classmate for three years in junior high. We were in the same class."

"That’s utter nonsense." Principal Yang became furious, "A teacher actually lying with students, I never thought that such a thing would happen at No. 2 Middle School."

His face turned purplish with rage, visibly very angry.

Shen Mianmian and Lu Siyuan were rather calm though, having already understood the character of the three; it was natural for them to know the trio wouldn’t easily admit to the wrongdoing.

"I am not your cousin, I’ve said this at No. 3 Middle School before. Don’t claim to be my cousin in front of strangers in the future." Shen Mianmian’s tone was gentle as she reminded Zhou Siyu, dissuading her from pretending to be her cousin in front of others.

"Zhou Siyu, if I were you, I would be too ashamed to bring it up again. Are you trying to claim a relationship with Mianmian just because she’s doing well in her studies now?" Lu Siyuan felt a headache every time he saw Zhou Siyu.

Initially, even before he was familiar with Shen Mianmian, he had disliked Zhou Siyu, and now he disliked her even more.

Principal Wang was left confused by their words, "Zhou Siyu, what exactly is your relationship with Shen Mianmian? Are you or are you not cousins?"
