Looking at Huang Jiajia, who was blocking her path, Ye Wushuang narrowed her gaze and spat out two words:

"."

Huang Jiajia was stunned, then said angrily, "Is that how you talk to a teacher!"Full novel: The Academic Queen Wears Many Masks — read the rest free on N​o⁠v​e⁠l​C⁠o​d⁠e​x⁠.​o⁠r​g⁠

It was one thing that she couldn't afford to offend the School Board Member, but what was Ye Wushuang anyway?

Did she really think that just because she had the Shen Family behind her, she wasn't a wild chicken from the countryside anymore?

"I don't think someone who demands that a student apologize and admit fault the moment they arrive is worthy of the title of teacher," Ye Wushuang said in an indifferent tone.

"You—" Huang Jiajia was speechless.

Beside them, Shen Wenyu wore a sullen face and said unhappily, "Stop while you're ahead, Ye Wushuang."

Ye Wushuang turned to look at Shen Wenyu, her eyes filled with a coldness that could freeze ten thousand miles: "In what capacity are you ordering me?"

She had originally thought that Shen Wenyu, who was renowned throughout the school, would be able to argue reasonably with Sun Hongxia. Instead, the moment Sun Hongxia brought up business, he became as humble as a dog, wishing he could take her head to Sun Hongxia to apologize.

When it came down to it, he was just a straw bag with a golden exterior and a rotten interior.

"In the capacity of your fiancé!" Shen Wenyu couldn't help but raise his volume, his gaze filled with disgust.

If it weren't for his grandfather saying that the engagement between him and Ye Wushuang could only be continued or canceled by Ye Wushuang, he would have long since ended this absurd and ridiculous engagement by proxy.

"Not anymore!" Ye Wushuang's voice was even louder, her aura even more imposing and powerful:

"The engagement between the Ye Family and the Shen Family is void from this moment on. You, get lost too!"

As her words landed, the surroundings became terrifyingly quiet.

What was wrong with Ye Wushuang?

It was one thing to beat up Sun Hongxia and her son and have a bad attitude toward the Homeroom Teacher, but how could she cancel the engagement between the Ye and Shen families?

Didn't she like Shen Wenyu very much?

Besides, even a ten-year-old child should understand that the Shen Family was the only reason Ye Wushuang could gain a foothold at Feiao High School, right?

Without the Shen Family, how could she contend with Sun Hongxia and her son?

Shen Wenyu's expression was somewhat ugly.

In his heart, even if this engagement were to be canceled, it should have been Ye Wushuang exiting with an inferior attitude of "blessing and resignation."

Not like this, with a face full of disgust, as if he were the one unworthy of her!

"I originally wanted to help you out of consideration for the past friendship between the Ye and Shen families, but you don't know what's good for you and insist on breaking off the engagement. Then handle this matter yourself. After all, I, Shen Wenyu, don't have the habit of throwing myself at people!"

Having said that, Shen Wenyu retreated to the side with a haughty expression.

He wanted to see just how much capability Ye Wushuang had left without the help of the Shen Family!

"Ye Wushuang, you aren't going to tell me that you intend to handle this all by yourself, are you?" Sun Hongxia didn't understand what Ye Wushuang was trying to do.

She had originally thought that Ye Wushuang would cling tightly to the Shen Family and use them to protect herself. Who knew that not only would she not cling to the Shen Family, but she would also kick them away!

"To deal with a small character like you, if I don't handle it myself, do I need to invite thirty or fifty people to help?" Ye Wushuang glanced at her from the corner of her eye, her attitude light and breezy.

The meaning behind her words, however, was so arrogant that it made the others break out in a cold sweat.

Sun Hongxia was one of the top noblewomen in Yan Cheng!

If she counted as a small character, then in this Flying Bird Academy and this city of Yan Cheng, how many big characters were left!

Ye Wushuang must have had her brain kicked by a donkey!

"I am a small character? Hah!" Sun Hongxia turned to look at the vice principal and said, seemingly casually, "Vice Principal, the school's funding for the next semester hasn't arrived yet, right?"

The vice principal understood immediately, picked up the microphone, and said righteously, "Ye Wushuang has ignored school rules, committed insubordination, and bullied and insulted a School Board Member and a classmate. She is hereby expelled. I hope all students will take this as a warning!"

Whoa.

This caused quite a stir below the stage.

She was expelled just like that?

Sun Hongxia and Zhang Chao weren't seriously injured. According to school rules, Ye Wushuang should only have received a major demerit, not direct expulsion, right?

While everyone was puzzled, Ye Wushuang spoke calmly: "Vice Principal, you can change the nine characters on the sculpture at the entrance of Flying Bird Academy."

"What do you mean?" The vice principal's expression was slightly angry.

The nine characters on the sculpture were: Strive for the cause of education for a lifetime.

This was the oath taken when Flying Bird Academy was founded, and it was also the face of the academy.

Changing these words wouldn't that be slapping his own face?

"From the time I hit someone until now, some of you asked who instigated me, some told me to stop while I was ahead, and some directly expelled me, but no one asked me why I hit Sun Hongxia and Zhang Chao.

Isn't it ridiculous that this kind of thing happens in a place that focuses on educating students?"

Ye Wushuang's black pupils were like torches as she stared directly at the vice principal.

The vice principal's expression stiffened.

Indeed, after this incident happened, no one asked Ye Wushuang why she hit Sun Hongxia and Zhang Chao.

Out of concern for his face, the vice principal said firmly, "Is there any justification for hitting people? Tell me, why did you hit School Board Member Sun and Classmate Zhang?"

Sun Hongxia and Zhang Chao looked at each other, secretly thinking that things were going poorly.

"Today was the day to change seats. I hit Zhang Chao because he called me over to be his desk mate, and when I went over, he insulted me, saying I was unworthy of sitting there like a human being.

I hit Sun Hongxia because she was the first to reach out and hit me, saying I hit her son and that I didn't know what was good for me.

From beginning to end, they were the ones provoking trouble, yet I am the one being expelled for resisting them.

If an ordinary student curses, it's not allowed.

If a School Board Member's son curses, it's allowed.

If an ordinary student hits someone, it's not allowed.

If a School Board Member hits someone, it's allowed.

If that's the case, what is the point of striving for the cause of education for a lifetime?

Wouldn't it be more appropriate to change it to 'strive for the cause of the wealthy for a lifetime'!!"

Ye Wushuang's cold voice was like a sniper bullet, striking directly at the hearts of everyone present!

For a moment, no one could refute her.

They knew what kind of person Ye Wushuang was; her family had no money, her background was humble, but she followed the rules and never made mistakes.

They also knew what kind of people Zhang Chao and Sun Hongxia were; they had money and immense forces, especially Zhang Chao, who often bullied others in school by relying on his mother's status as a School Board Member.

Today was clearly as Ye Wushuang said: Zhang Chao and Sun Hongxia wanted to bully Ye Wushuang, but were instead dealt with by her in an uncharacteristic fashion.

If the school expelled Ye Wushuang, wouldn't it just be serving the "wealthy"?

Then, was there any need to stay in such a school?

It wasn't as if everyone was as wealthy as Sun Hongxia and her son...

The vice principal's complexion suddenly became very colorful.

"You... you're lying!" Seeing that the atmosphere was wrong, Zhang Chao immediately stood up to defend himself: "You say I humiliated you, where is the evidence? Who saw it? Who can prove it?"

He walked to the front of the stage and looked at the students of Grade 12 Class 2: "Can you prove it?"

Sun Hongxia's eyes lit up, and she also walked to the front of the stage, asking a question she already knew the answer to: "Ye Wushuang says this School Board Member hit her and scolded her, did you see it?"

The students of Class 2 looked at each other.

One was an old established wealthy family of Yan Cheng and a School Board Member, and the other was a country girl who no longer had any connection to the Shen Family.

Was there any need to think about who to help?

They scrambled to say:

"We didn't see School Board Member Sun and Classmate Zhang hit or scold Ye Wushuang."

"What Ye Wushuang said is fake."

"Poor mountains and treacherous rivers produce unruly people; everyone must not be deceived by Ye Wushuang!"

"People from the countryside are just very uneducated!"

This was the price of Ye Wushuang breaking off her engagement with the Shen Family!
