The principal almost considered writing the words 'mind your own business' on his face. Mr. Yi had been teaching at the school for the longest time, so he was willing to give him some respect.

Eke International High School catered primarily to the children of wealthy families. Even if they accepted exceptional students who excelled in their studies, it would not alter the school's fundamental nature. This was a school designed for the offspring of affluent families.

Therefore, many conventional teaching methods were not suitable here. The principal had always grappled with how to change this situation, so he disagreed with Mr. Yi's outdated perspective.

"Principal, whether they're rich or noble, they're still students. And students can certainly learn from their teachers," Mr. Yi persisted in his viewpoint.

The principal was impatient to handle these matters and asked, "Then what is it that you want?"

Mr. Yi said agitatedly, "We should summon Miss Manobal and give her a proper lesson. She needs to understand that this is unacceptable and make an apology to me."

The principal could barely contain his laughter. Mr. Yi had the audacity to suggest educating Lalisa. She was an internationally renowned scholar. If it weren't for her desire to find a local school to teach at, even if he were to offer a fortune, she wouldn't be persuaded to teach at Eke.

Furthermore, she was the eldest daughter of the Manobal Family. Regardless of their previous interactions, she still carried the Manobal surname, an identity the principal couldn't afford to offend.

"Mr. Yi, despite Lalisa's younger age, her teaching abilities far surpass yours. I would advise against discussing education in this context," the principal tactfully reminded him, hoping to spare Mr. Yi from embarrassment.

However, Mr. Yi paid no heed to his advice. He was consumed by Lalisa's perceived disrespect and was determined to make her face the consequences for her words.

The principal couldn't tolerate Mr. Yi's incessant pestering in his office, so he simply asked the secretary to invite Lalisa for a face-to-face conversation with Mr. Yi. After all, he would still stand with Lalisa.

In the teacher's office, Lalisa was engrossed in playing a game. She had a strong liking for this new map. When it was officially released, it was bound to attract a larger player base.

As the CEO of Lily Technologies, she hoped to see the game improve continuously. Back when her godmother's health deteriorated and she needed money, she had explored various ways to make money. This was the reason she established Lily Technologies as a game company.

However, at that time, the team was too small to generate substantial income. They had to create mini-games to keep the company afloat. It wasn't until last year when she met the programming genius, An Rosè. With Rosè's ability to bring her ideas to life on a computer, Lily Technology decided to develop a large-scale game, investing half a year to release 'Future City'. This is why Lalisa paid close attention to students' feedback on the game.

After Lalisa finished reviewing the new map, she sent her idea to the company. The principal's secretary observed her rapid typing on the keyboard and wasn't sure if she should bother her.

All the teachers paused what they were doing and turned their attention toward Lalisa. The principal's secretary rarely visited the teacher's office, and given Mr. Yi's recent agitation, they wondered if he had mentioned anything to the principal.

The secretary had been instructed to treat Lalisa with respect. She patiently waited for Lalisa to close her computer before saying, "Miss Manobal, the principal would like to meet with you in his office."
