Chapter 27
Lu Yao's father is a member of the school's board of directors. He came to the school today as a representative of the board to hear the principal's summary of the first half of the school year and future work plans.
Since the report finished early, Lu Yao's father was about to leave. As he and the principal passed by Lu Yao's classroom and saw a crowd gathered, including Lu Yao and Lu Qi, he decided to come in and see what was going on.
The homeroom teacher wiped the sweat from his forehead, his brows furrowed in distress, wondering how he should explain the situation to the principal.
Even just the principal knowing what happened would lead to a severe reprimand, let alone Lu Yao's father, who had now arrived.
Seeing that Mr. Tang was unable to explain, the principal's expression showed confusion. Why was Mr. Tang acting so strangely today?
At this moment, Jiang Bai suddenly spoke up, "Principal, Uncle Lu, this matter is a bit complicated. Perhaps I should explain the whole situation to you?"
Lu Yao's father, familiar with Jiang Bai's reputation, nodded slightly. "Thank you, Jiang Bai."
Jiang Bai's lips curved into a slight smile. "You're welcome, Uncle Lu."
He then turned to Lin Xiang, Lu Yao, and the others, saying, "If I make any errors in recounting what happened, feel free to correct me."
Seeing Jiang Bai say this to Lu Yao, Lu Yao's father raised an eyebrow. Was this related to Lu Yao?
Jiang Bai recounted the entire event in chronological order, including how Li Guigu had led others to suspect Lu Yao and how Xia Yue had secretly stoked the flames.
He presented the facts plainly without embellishment, but even so, Lu Yao's father's face gradually turned a dark shade, and the atmosphere in the room grew colder and more tense.
Hearing Jiang Bai's account made it clear that from the beginning, Li Guigu had harbored malicious intent toward Lu Yao, trying to frame him.
Feeling the terrifying aura emanating from Lu Yao's father, the principal also began to sweat nervously.
Jiang Bai said, "Uncle Lu, this is everything I saw and heard. Since no one has disputed my account, it should be accurate."
Lu Yao's father responded, "Thank you for your effort, Jiang Bai."
He then gave Li Guigu a cold glance and turned to the sweating principal. "I won't question how the school handles student discipline. Call the other party's parents over so that we can discuss how to handle this matter."
With that, he took out his phone and dialed a number in front of everyone. "Lawyer Dong, please come to Huiying High School right away. I have an urgent matter that needs your attention."
Handling the matter according to school rules was one thing, but Lu Yao's decision to report it to the police was another. These two actions could proceed simultaneously without conflict.
Lu Yao's father did not lower his voice intentionally, so the classmates clearly heard his words.
Hearing that Lu Yao's father had called Li Guigu's parents and a lawyer, the students started whispering among themselves.
"If I'd known this would happen, I wouldn't have acted so hastily."
"Li Guigu seems a bit pitiful now!"
"Put away your misplaced sympathy. Li Guigu's plight doesn't change the fact that Lin Xiang and Lu Yao were victims earlier."
Li Guigu, having been frightened out of his wits when he saw Lu Yao's father at the classroom door, turned pale with fear upon hearing that a lawyer was coming.
