Chapter 447: A Slap in the Face!
Xue Xi paused. She did not expect Mr. Guo to say it himself.
This meant that he was fearless.
Xue Xi clenched her jaw and quickly started thinking. What does Professor Derry care about the most? What should I use to persuade him to give up on Mr. Guo?
Such a person was not worthy of being a teacher.
Just as she was thinking this, Liu Zhao finally squeezed over. Hearing Mr. Guo say this, she immediately supported him and said in English, “I think Xue Xi’s actions were wrong. Mr. Guo is her teacher and should be respected. If everyone reports their teacher, how can the school teach?”
She wanted to leave a good impression on Professor Derry.
Mr. Guo gave her an encouraging look.
Liu Zhao became even more excited. “Moreover, we can’t be sure what exactly happened. Actually, until now, there’s no direct evidence that Mr. Guo pocketed the students’ subsidy, right? It’s all just the students spouting nonsense. In the beginning, those people did not spout nonsense. Later on, it was Xue Xi who’d said something, right? Then that group of people started to talk back.”
Everyone: “…”
This Liu Zhao was simply despicable.
Mr. Guo lowered his eyes and smiled.
He gave subsidies to the students, and they were all given cash. Only the person in question knew that he had merely signed the forms for cash being received.
That was why they had been living in harmony for so many years.
Did they really think that he would be so stupid as to leave behind evidence?
However, with the students as witnesses, he was beaten down.
Liu Zhao’s words were evidence. Anyway, once he was overseas, he would never admit it.
Moreover, Professor Derry did not care about this at all. He sighed and said, “Alright, this matter is over. Professor Derry, Xue Xi is also very brave. Don’t blame her.”
Professor Derry’s face turned cold. “Did Xue Xi report you?”
This tone…
Mr. Guo gloated and felt that Xue Xi would definitely be reprimanded. He sighed. “Yes.”
As expected, Professor Derry said, “Then we can’t let this matter rest so easily.”
Mr. Guo lowered his head and became even more excited. “Although it’s a huge loss to my reputation, I think we should forget it.”
Beside him, Liu Zhao became even more supportive. “No, Mr. Guo, how can you be so magnanimous? We can’t let your kindness be used as a capital for others to bully you! We must not let this matter rest!”
The entire cla.s.s suddenly quietened down. All the students turned to look at Xue Xi in unison, feeling that it was over this time. It was Xue Xi who had acted rashly.
Feng Xingshen frowned.
If Sister Xi was reprimanded by Professor Derry, then even if he had to risk offending Professor Derry, he could not let Sister Xi suffer this grievance!
Mr. Guo was smug. “Professor, I…”
Before he could finish speaking, Professor Derry said, “I originally thought that the matter was not serious, so I invited you to Scanford. I didn’t expect it to be like this. I’m not your professor at all! Please don’t call me that! It’s simply an insult to the profession of teaching!”
His words stunned the students who were worried about Xue Xi.
Feng Xingshen opened his mouth and swallowed the words he’d been about to retort.
Xue Xi was also quite surprised, but she felt that this was as should be. What’s anomalous was that Professor Derry had hired Mr. Guo in the first place, alright?
Mr. Guo widened his eyes in shock and disbelief.
Professor Derry frowned. “I didn’t know what had happened before, but now that I know, please leave. Director Feng, such a person is not worthy of being in Huaxia University.”
The moment he said this, Feng Xingshen stood up. “Yes, such a person is not worthy of being in Huaxia University. Security, chase him out!”
Fearing that Mr. Guo would take revenge on the students when he returned to school, Feng Xingshen had especially arranged for the security guards to follow them. At this moment, the security guards rushed in and pulled Mr. Guo out.
Mr. Guo shouted, “Professor, aren’t you mistaken? I-I know Huaxia University very well! I’m very valuable to you!”
Professor Derry, on the other hand, had a cold expression. “No matter how knowledgeable a person like you is, our Scanford University will not dare to accept you! Director Feng, I think your punishment was too simple. You should report it to the mathematics world. Such a person is not worthy of studying mathematics! It’s an insult to mathematics!”
This completely cut off Mr. Guo’s scientific research path!
Mr. Guo was stunned and his entire body softened.
Even if Feng Xingshen had previously revoked his teacher’s certificate, he could still have gone to a private company and do scientific research. After all, anyone who studied mathematics was formidable in any field.
But now!
Derry had said that he was not worthy of studying mathematics… He had cut off his path!
Mr. Guo could not figure out what was going on. Didn’t Professor Derry know about the deduction of the students’ allowance?
No, Professor Derry only started to make things difficult after Xue Xi had said that she was the one who had reported him.
He seemed to be afraid that he would make Xue Xi unhappy…
This thought made Mr. Guo turn to look at Xue Xi!
It was Xue Xi!
Professor Derry’s motive for coming to China this time was Xue Xi! She had harmed him!
After Mr. Guo was dragged out, Professor Derry turned to look at Liu Zhao, but he did not scold her on the spot. After all, this was not his student. He only shook his head in disappointment.
This silent look made Liu Zhao even more embarra.s.sed.
Following that, the bell rang and everyone returned to their seats. Professor Derry did not mention anything about the exchange student. He felt that after what had happened with Mr. Guo, they should calm down first.
After two periods, Professor Derry and Feng Xingshen chatted and left.
After cla.s.s, everyone went to another cla.s.sroom for another cla.s.s. Having packed their books, they were heading to other cla.s.srooms and walking along the corridor of the school building when Xue Xi suddenly heard Liu Zhao’s voice. “Xue Xi!”
Xue Xi turned around and saw her saying fiercely, “If you knew Professor Derry, why didn’t you say so earlier? Did you do it on purpose just to embarra.s.s me?!”
Xue Xi: “…”
This person is simply too crazy and shameless.
She ignored Liu Zhao and took two steps forward. Liu Zhao rushed over again. “I will definitely not let you live well!”
Liu Zhao ran away while crying.
She’d offended the entire cla.s.s and even offended Professor Derry. If she could not become an exchange student, what would happen to her future at Huaxia University?
Xue Xi ignored her. When she arrived at the new cla.s.sroom, she found a seat by the window and sat down. She switched on her phone and continued to watch The Most Beautiful Girl, intending to see if Cen Bai had defended the chatterbox.
At this moment!
From the corner of her eye, she saw a black figure flash past the window. Immediately—
Bang!
Following that, the students downstairs screamed, “Someone jumped! Someone jumped!!”
