The Time-Limited Love and Marriage
Chapter 240

Chapter 240: Chapter 240

"She was arrested, wasn’t she? How come she’s still wandering around outside?"

Yu Man could hardly believe her own eyes and quickly turned to look at Jiang Weiwei.

Jiang Guosheng also asked Jiang Weiwei, "Didn’t you say that Moxi was arrested?"

"I, I really don’t know..."

Jiang Weiwei was also in a state of panic, looking at Jiang Moxi with disbelief.

Because Jiang Moxi’s words yesterday almost amounted to an admission of her hacking into the Information Security Department.

Plus, the mention by the enforcement officers of the real hacker being captured had convinced Jiang Weiwei that it was Jiang Moxi who was arrested.

But what exactly is going on now?

Could they have caught the wrong person again?

However, Jiang Moxi just glanced coldly at the three of them and said to Xiao Zhi, "Sorry, teacher, the traffic was bad on the way here, so I’m late."

If this were in the past, Xiao Zhi would undoubtedly have ridiculed and chastised Jiang Moxi for her poor attitude towards her studies.

But today, Xiao Zhi smiled exceedingly kindly and said, "It’s fine, it’s fine, Student Jiang. Your presence in class is a great support to my teaching."

This scene left the other students somewhat astonished and caused the three members of the Jiang Family to be dumbfounded.

Because they all knew that Xiao Zhi’s pet peeve was Jiang Moxi’s lax attitude towards her studies.

Xiao Zhi also seemed to notice the confusion among everyone and explained.

"This time, Student Jiang has made a great contribution in assisting our National Security Department to intercept the intrusion, so the leadership of the Information Security Department has decided to award the guaranteed admission spot to Student Jiang. She will soon be my colleague!"

A simple sentence sparked intense discussion among the other students and delivered a heavy blow to both Jiang Guosheng and Yu Man.

And Jiang Weiwei, too frustrated to maintain her unassailable persona, started quarreling with Xiao Zhi.

"Jiang Moxi is clearly the one who infiltrated the Information Security Department. She is nothing but a thief crying ’Stop, thief!’ How can you give the guaranteed admission spot to her?"

Xiao Zhi really couldn’t understand why Jiang Weiwei kept insisting that Jiang Moxi was the intruder and was about to say something.

Just then, Si Lin walked in with leisurely steps.

He was dressed in a British-style plaid trousers and a vest shirt today, his whole person seemingly endowed with a mysterious nobility, becoming a scenery unto himself.

As he passed by Jiang Weiwei, his deep eyes were filled with mockery and ridicule.

"If we aren’t giving the spot to Xixi, should we give it to a robber like you who deceitfully seeks to gain extra credit?"

As parents, neither Jiang Guosheng nor Yu Man wanted to see their child insulted by others, so they both stepped forward to reason with Si Lin.

"Weiwei has been wronged and was imprisoned for two days. If you don’t compensate her with the guaranteed admission spot and call her a robber instead, isn’t that blatant bullying?"

"Moxi has made a mistake, and as parents, we are very distressed. Young Master Si doesn’t need to reverse black and white for Moxi’s sake, it will only mar your reputation."

Only Jiang Weiwei, felt somewhat guilty and lowered her gaze, not daring to meet Si Lin’s eyes.

Because she knew that when Si Lin called her a robber, he was referring to her stealing Jiang Moxi’s homework.

Si Lin really thought Jiang Guosheng and Yu Man were irredeemable, the kind that couldn’t be reasoned with, and thus looked towards Xiao Zhi.

"These two are seriously disrupting the normal teaching process. Won’t you call security over to get these irrelevant people out?"

Xiao Zhi knew that Si Lin was angry and quickly explained, "Young Master Si, they said they wanted a statement for Jiang Weiwei before they would leave."

Si Lin raised an eyebrow: "A statement, huh? Just so happens, I’ve brought it with me."

Si Lin even deliberately waved the statement in his hand towards the three members of the Jiang Family, sneered and said, "Let me give you a summary of the main contents."

Jiang Weiwei met Si Lin’s smiling eyes and felt very uneasy.

Because her intuition told her that Si Lin was not so kind-hearted!

But before Jiang Weiwei could speak up to stop him, Si Lin had already begun to speak.

"The Justice Hacker who caused the massive traffic hub paralysis yesterday has been caught, and Jiang Moxi, who assisted the National Security Department in intercepting the Justice Hacker, has been awarded a first-class merit. The Information Security Department has decided to grant Jiang Moxi the qualification for direct admission to the National Security Department!"

Then, after glancing at the Jiang Family of three, Si Lin continued.

"As for Jiang Weiwei, though she isn’t the one who infiltrated the Information Security Department, she has repeatedly used Jiang Moxi’s work to deceive and gain extra marks, which is a severe violation. Therefore, after consultation with all the senior officials, it has been decided that Jiang Weiwei will be expelled."

"No, this can’t be!"

Jiang Weiwei couldn’t believe she was being expelled just like that, she quickly snatched the statement from Si Lin’s hand, wanting to verify the truth.

What she saw was not only the clear decisions written on it, but there were also the joint seals of the Information Security Department and the National Security Department.

In other words, the statement was real!

She felt as if her legs had lost their strength in an instant, stumbling and barely able to stand.

Meanwhile, Jiang Guosheng and Yu Man were still unwilling to give up and continued to argue with Si Lin.

In their eyes, Jiang Weiwei was the one they had put in countless efforts to cultivate, her abilities naturally surpassing those of Jiang Moxi, who grew up in a poor and remote area.

Especially in the field of computing, she surely had to be far better than Jiang Moxi, who had only encountered electronic products in recent years.

So, full of confidence, they berated Si Lin.

"Weiwei needs to use Moxi’s work? Young Master Si, do you have any evidence?"

"Even if you want to protect Moxi, don’t wrongfully accuse Weiwei!"

Si Lin sneered: "It seems you won’t turn back until you hit the south wall! Fine, I’ll show you the evidence, and let you hit that wall."

As soon as Si Lin finished, Jiang Weiwei almost knelt down: "Please don’t..."

Jiang Guosheng, seeing Jiang Weiwei’s reaction, had already guessed something.

He wanted to stop Si Lin, but it was clearly too late.

At that moment, Si Lin was already using his phone, which had projection capabilities, to cast an image in the classroom.

In the video, Jiang Weiwei attempted to grab Jiang Moxi but was blocked by the cell door, and could only yell resentfully:

"You knew I was always using your work, that I used a computer to view your assignments, and you even put software on a USB drive!"

"Even if I took your work, wasn’t it also for the sake of your parents? They’ve always hoped that I would be more successful than you, hoping that I could make a splash and rise above others with them!"

"Jiang Moxi, can’t you think of your parents for once? If something really happens to me in this cell, they would be devastated."

The video had been edited, cutting out the part where Jiang Weiwei accused Jiang Moxi of being the Justice Hacker.

But every word was indeed spoken by Jiang Weiwei herself.

At that moment, everyone was looking at Jiang Weiwei in utter shock.

The nobler Jiang Weiwei had been in front of others, the more vile her words in the video seemed.

At this point, what Jiang Weiwei was most worried about was how Jiang Guosheng and Yu Man viewed her.

After all, there was no blood relation between them and her, Jiang Weiwei; if they truly detested her, they could just as well kick her out of the house.

Without their protection, she, Jiang Weiwei, would not only lose her status as a Yan City socialite, but even surviving in Yan City would be in question!

Jiang Weiwei knew the importance of winning over the hearts of Jiang Guosheng and Yu Man and hastily reached out to pull Yu Man’s hand: "Mom and Dad, please listen to me..."

But before she could speak, Yu Man forcefully shook off her hand, delivering her a fierce slap!

"Mommy!"

"Don’t call me mom! You bring shame upon us!"

After dropping those words, Yu Man turned and walked away.

Jiang Guosheng also felt it was too embarrassing and followed after her.

Jiang Weiwei could only follow them, chasing after the two...
