Chapter 21 - Punishment for Civilians

  Then, I saw our beautiful bamboo boy's face getting stranger and stranger, laughing so hard that he couldn't catch his breath, stuttering: "Chen Yi slept in that day, and was tied up here by me." I was shocked after hearing this, and hastily asked him to teach me how to kidnap the vigilant Chen Yi, but the young master's face turned black, and he said he had to go home and study, or else he wouldn't be able to beat this ghostly clever girl.

  When I arrived at the classroom door, I realized that the situation was purely coincidental. It was just because Ye Chenyi was sleeping well on the tree and accidentally fell down due to a habitual unintentional roll over, which happened to hit me right on the head.

  To the extent that for a long time afterwards, I didn't know whether to thank him or give him a good beating.

  ……

  I deliberately took a detour to class A, and it was already after the start of class. I still walked slowly. I had long expected this situation -

  I sat obediently on the stool, facing the class teacher's eerie fox-like face, with glasses reflecting light that made me feel chilly all over.

  I forced a smile and said with a flattering face: "Teacher, I was also forced by the situation at that time. Considering that I'm still a good student, let's just forget about it this time." Look how sincere I am, class leader! I'm in a hurry to go back and comfort Mu Youxuan, that young lady, who called me to apologize for offending her kindness.

  Alas, it's a sad story. After class, I was immediately intercepted by You Xuan. Only then did I remember that I had promised to call her, but I forgot and stood her up. With Mu Youxuan's personality of seeking revenge for past grievances, how can I remain unscathed?

  Then coincidentally at this time, the class advisor invited me again to go have tea and chat.

  I nervously gazed at the teacher's completely unmoved face, gritted my teeth and said: "Teacher, say it, how are you going to punish me?" Oh no, please don't make it too severe, if I get a demerit, I'll be expelled!

  But it seems like I'm the only one here who is worried and anxious...

  The class advisor sipped his tea leisurely, smiling exceptionally calmly: "I'm also roughly aware of Comrade Cheng's situation, and if Tianya expels him, then no school will dare to admit Comrade Cheng, right?"

  I hung my head in despair and replied weakly: "Yes."

  "What should I do now in this situation, teacher?"

  "If you didn't have a way out, would you still be here talking with me?"

  "Logically speaking, a commoner student like you, Comrade Cheng, should be expelled for repeated mistakes. Otherwise, you would have to pay 500,000 yuan. Which one will Comrade Cheng choose?"

  I don't want either of them, quitting school is out of the question, and I have no money to pay.

  I stood silently, without noticing a triumphant smile on the face of our class monitor.

  "Alright, I know there's an agency that introduces jobs for minors, go try it out." The fox tail was finally revealed, and the class leader immediately retracted the smile on his face, giving a nonchalant dismissal. Do you need to dismiss me? I've been wanting to leave myself!

  ……

  Although I was dissatisfied, for the sake of continuing my studies and life, I had to come to the intermediary agency mentioned by the class teacher. After taking a look at the luxurious decorations, I secretly felt some apprehension in my heart, why did I always feel like there was some kind of conspiracy?

  Alas, I've also been too cautious and hesitant lately.

  I stood in front of the receptionist and explained my intention, but she just responded indifferently and handed me a small notebook with several large characters written on it - "Debt Repayment Book".

  I looked around and found that this was a special agency for debtors. I felt particularly wronged because I had come very early this morning, but ended up being late due to getting lost, which made me feel extremely depressed.

  I reluctantly opened the book in front of me, and to my surprise, it detailed my job, which was similar to that of a nanny, but I didn't have to live there. The address seemed vaguely familiar, but I couldn't quite recall where it was. However, the salary was unexpectedly high, enough for me to continue studying after two months if everything went smoothly. It was 250,000 yuan per month, which suggested that it was a wealthy family - they were paying a nanny such a large sum of money.

  I walked to work with a happy heart, because of the instructor's order, after handing over the 500,000 yuan, I was not allowed to return to school, and once I accepted the job, I couldn't back down, let alone say directly that I wanted to drop out.

  It turns out that I was wrong to choose a noble school from the beginning. Cheng Xiaofi, must you be so kind?
