Chapter 578: Punishment Decision

Shi Man shrugged innocently. “1 really don’t know. When I went to the office to look for the form teacher yesterday, I didn’t see Teacher Xie.”

Xie Jie nodded in agreement and said, “I should have been in another class at that time yesterday. I really haven’t seen these new students.”

Things were already clear here.

Shi Man and the others were clearly innocent, but it was worth asking carefully how the bracelet ended up in Du Yan’s hands.

“Du Yan.” The dean’s cold voice suddenly sounded above her head.

Du Yan shivered in panic. Her eyes couldn’t help but drift to Tong Su. “Teacher, I didn’t steal…”

Tong Su frowned and her fingers trembled imperceptibly.

For a long time, Du Yan did not hear anyone speak again. She looked up in a daze and met the dean’s cold eyes. Her heart suddenly trembled and she realized belatedly that she had no way out once she was caught by Su Tang on the spot.

She pursed her lips tightly and clenched her fists by her sides. She said in a low voice, “I’m sorry, Teacher Xie, Dean. 1 took this…”

Du Yan’s tense shoulders suddenly relaxed, and her head drooped. She resigned herself to fate and took all the blame.

Otherwise, she probably wouldn’t be able to leave this office today.

She had thought it through very clearly. Instead of dragging Tong Su down with her, it was better for her to take the initiative to confess and would protect Tong Su. That way, she would have done Tong Su a huge favor. When the school punished her in the end, Tong Su would plead for her and not be too miserable.

After hearing Du Yan’s words, the people in the office had different reactions.

Tong Su heaved a sigh of relief.

Bai Xue and Su Tang glared at Du Yan. They did not feel happy that she had admitted it just like that. Instead, they were filled with anger.

It was obvious that Du Yan could not be the mastermind behind the entire matter. The only person who could make Du Yan do this was…

“Why did you steal my bracelet?”

Before they could turn their gazes to Tong Su, Xie Jie walked up to Du Yan excitedly and stared at her with tears in her eyes.

Du Yan panicked and found an excuse. “I didn’t know this bracelet was so important to Teacher. 1 just thought it looked good and wanted to put it back after taking a photo with it. 1 really didn’t mean any harm!”

The only answer she got was a crisp slap.

Xie Jie took a deep breath and couldn’t hold back her anger. The shattered light in her round eyes gathered into a sharp sword, as if it could pierce through the girl in front of her at any time. “You stole from Teacher and don’t know how to repent. The military school can’t have a student like you!”

“No!” Du Yan raised her head with a strange cry. Her panicked eyes quickly glanced at Tong Su behind Xie Jie. Her face turned red as she pleaded for her. “Teacher, I’ve only made this mistake once. Please forgive me! Please!”

Xie Jie was indifferent. When she turned to look at the dean, the tears in her eyes had already been quickly suppressed and she returned to her usual calm. “It’s up to you to decide how to deal with this matter in the end.”

How could the dean decide on such a big matter?

She rubbed her aching eyebrows with a troubled expression and said helplessly, “Why don’t we leave this matter to the principal? Whether it’s expulsion or any other punishments will be decided by the principal himself.”

Xie Jie glared at her. She was very dissatisfied with her prudent way of protecting herself, but she could not make things difficult for her to offend the leader for her sake. She forced out a cold snort from her nose in agreement. When she turned to the students of Class S, her expression was already extremely cold. “Go back first. There will be a broadcast to inform the final outcome of this matter later.”

Shi Man had long expected that this matter would not be concluded by the dean. Anyone with a discerning eye could tell how much Tong Su had participated in this.

If the dean dealt with them selflessly, her seat would probably be given to someone else soon.

If Tong Su apologized to Shi Man like she said, even if the dean was given a hundred guts, she would not dare to give such a command personally.

Su Tang tugged at Shi Man’s clothes indignantly, wanting her to think of another way. She immediately asked the dean to deal with these people. Otherwise, once this matter reached the principal, Tong Su would not be punished at all.

Shi Man glanced at her from the corner of her eye and patted the back of Su Tang’s hand comfortingly. Her expression became even calmer. “Alright, I respect Teacher’s decision.”

Su Tang frowned in confusion, but she could only follow Shi Man back to the classroom angrily.

Soon, the announcement spread throughout the entire school.

Liu Ming and another boy who had beaten up the teacher were punished by the school and asked to apologize to Xie Jie in front of the entire school at the flag-raising ceremony.

Du Yan was supposed to be expelled from school for stealing, but because she admitted her mistake with a good attitude, the school decided to give her a chance to turn over a new leaf and only sentenced her to probation.

If no other mistakes were made within a year, this punishment would automatically be abolished..
