Chapter 2208: Why Be Beaten

The sight of Li Jianyue caught Quan Jingyi by surprise . He was startled for a moment . He tried to hide the slap mark on his face by turning his face slightly .

Quan Jingyi pretended that he had not seen Li Jianyue . He turned his head back and walked outside .

“Quan Jingyi . ” Li Jianyue called out to him . “Did you not explain what had happened clearly? The headteacher doesn’t know the situation that well . I can be a witness for you because obviously, you weren’t the one who started the trouble . ”

Quan Jingyi stopped in his tracks . He may or may not have snorted somewhat disdainfully . “No need,” he said airily .

How unconcerned and apathetic those few words sounded . It seemed as though Quan Jingyi didn’t care at all .

Li Jianyue felt a little uncomfortable staring at his back . From the looks of it, he was over-developed for someone of high-school age .

She turned, entered the homeroom teacher’s office, and knocked on the door .

“Come in,” said the homeroom teacher .

Li Jianyue opened the door cautiously and walked in . In the room were her homeroom teacher, a couple, and a sophisticated-looking middle-aged man .

The couple seemed very young . Standing in front of the couple was the male classmate who had given what he said was his friend’s love letter yesterday .

The male student’s eyes were red . Even his pair of glasses couldn’t conceal that .

When he saw Li Jianyue, he lowered his head . Somewhat timidly, he crossed his hands .

When the boy’s parents saw Li Jianyue, they took a second look . His father said, “This female classmate looks familiar . I think I have seen her somewhere before . ” He asked Li Jianyue, “What is your father’s name?”

That question had been asked of Li Jianyue many times before . “Hello uncle, my father is Li Sicheng . ”

Her answer was: My father is Li Sicheng .

Instead of saying: My father’s name is Li Sicheng .

Although the two sentences differed only by a single word, their meaning was a whole lot different .

On hearing this, the well-mannered, middle-aged man discreetly looked at her up and down . “It turns out you’re Mr . Li’s daughter . You look very much like your mother . ”

Li Jianyue smiled .

The homeroom teacher pushed up his glasses . Looking at Li Jianyue, he asked kindly, “Are you looking for a teacher?”

Seeing the math book in Li Jianyue’s hand, the homeroom teacher added, “Your math teacher’s office is next door . ”

Li Jianyue nodded and said, “I know . But I wanted to come here to help explain . What happened in the classroom just now was not entirely Quan Jingyi’s fault . ”

Yang Zihao was alarmed . He hadn’t expected to hear Li Jianyue say that . He gazed at Li Jianyue as he pinched the hem of his school uniform . He didn’t say a word . Instead, he just bit his lower lip .

Li Jianyue noticed his gaze . Sensing that her gut feeling was right, she felt a little angry . “This classmate butted heads with Quan Jingyi moments ago . Then he picked a fight with Quan Jingyi, who did not retaliate,” she explained .

“Enough . ” A young boy’s voice came from outside .

Li Jianyue turned her head . At the backlit doorway, a tall figure stood propped on the office door . He had an aloof expression on his face . He gazed at Li Jianyue . “What does it have to do with you? I didn’t tell you to be nosy . ”

Li Jianyue was startled . “I’m trying to explain on your behalf because obviously, you didn’t hit anyone . So why…”

Why be beaten?

Just before she finished speaking, she thought she caught a glimpse of Quan Jingyi smiling . He didn’t seem to care and said casually, “Some people have wanted to beat me for a long time . Whether or not I did something wrong is not important at all . ”
