Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The entire cla.s.sroom was stunned.

Li Xuekai was stunned. “Investigating Mr. Li? Isn’t Huaxia University investigating Xue Xi?”

The few organizing staff were even more stunned. “The task we were asked to investigate was the complaint about Mr. Li’s style of teaching, so we came here. We have already obtained some evidence of Mr. Li accepting bribes from students and selling answers to test questions at the Golden Autumn Camp. Now, we are only here to see how he is doing in school.”

The moment he said this, Li Xi’s legs turned weak and she sat on the chair with a loud thud.

Meanwhile, Zhang Xiaoxiao, whose eyes were red from anxiety, looked at Xue Xi in disbelief and then at the staff…

Zhang Xiaoxiao suddenly recalled the calm expression on the Master’s face yesterday. Thinking about how she was still playing games last night, she felt that the reason why the Master was so calm was that she knew that this matter had been settled!

She could not help but gulp. So this matter had something to do with the Master?

After the cla.s.sroom quietened down, the staff turned to look at Xiang Huai. “Mhm, can you explain in detail how Mr. Li scolded you? And what did he do to you?”

Xiang Huai lowered his eyes and smiled. “Oh, I forgot.”

The staff: “…”

They had already gathered all the evidence against Mr. Li. There was nothing else that needed to be said. The staff had come here only to make an appearance.

Seeing that Xiang Huai did not say anything, they simply asked for more details and questions before leaving.

After they left, everyone in the cla.s.s turned to look at Li Xi.

Her face was pale. After the staff had left, she rushed to the door and stopped Mr. Wei. “Mr. Wei, where is my uncle?”

Mr. Wei sighed. “He has been arrested today and can’t come to work for the time being.”

Li Xi gulped. “When can he come back to work, then?”

Mr. Wei said, “That will depend on the higher-ups. Moreover, if we can confirm his crimes, he might not return to work again.”

Li Xi was about to cry. She took out her phone and walked out. “I’m going to contact my father!”

The situation had been reversed and the cla.s.s was in an uproar again.

Everyone who’d thought that Xue Xi would be unlucky could not help but look at her. Even the other two people in the same dormitory felt extremely guilty. They approached Xue Xi and said, “G.o.ddess, we… we’re sorry. Can you forgive us?”

Xue Xi looked at them and replied slowly, “There is nothing to forgive because I have never blamed you guys.”

She was not a saint.

Instead, she had never considered the two of them as friends.

What was a stranger’s love or disgust to her?

The two of them heaved a sigh of relief when they heard her words. However, they had no idea how hard it was to become Xue Xi’s friend and what they had missed.

Zhang Xiaoxiao pouted indignantly. “They were the ones who were afraid of being implicated yesterday, yet they still have the cheek to ask you to forgive them today. I’m really speechless.”

Xue Xi smiled at her. “Have you finished your paper?”

Zhang Xiaoxiao instantly became anxious. “No. Eh, I don’t know how to answer this question. Studying G.o.ddess, lend me your paper~”

Xue Xi pa.s.sed her the papers that she had already answered and Zhang Xiaoxiao started to do the questions seriously.

The cla.s.sroom finally quietened down. Everyone was engrossed in their studies. After all, the first day of Mr. Li’s incident did not cause any impact on everyone.

Mr. Wei quickly took over Mr. Li’s position. The Math Olympiad team sent a few teachers to the cla.s.s together. During the self-study cla.s.s, the teachers were all in the cla.s.sroom, making it easier for the students to ask questions at any time.
