Chapter 5 An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth (36)

  A week has finally passed, and Tang Sugar has been waiting for Xia Ye's return all this time.

  It's only been seven days since we last met, and the summer night seems to have grown even longer, his figure appears more upright, and even his temperament has improved, it's not an exaggeration to describe him as "national color and heavenly fragrance", although this phrase is rarely used to describe a man. But he is like a shining pearl, no matter where he is in the corner without drawing attention, he still shines brightly, making people can't help but notice him.

  After returning, his childhood friend Xu Zhiwei reported to him with great loyalty about the various things that had happened in school over the past seven days.

  Xia Ye's face quickly fell, but he had never been very expressive, so Xu Zhiwei didn't notice. He hesitated for a moment before lowering his voice to tell him: "Your sister... seems to have found someone she likes." As he spoke, he observed Xia Ye's reaction, knowing that although Xia Ye was usually rational, he could be terrifying when impulsive. He knew how Xia Ye felt about Sugar, so he wanted to give him a heads up in advance, lest things get out of hand when Xia Ye met Chen Xiaonuan.

  "Who is it?" Xia Ye's tone was always icy when she spoke at night.

  Xu Zhiwei pointed to the playground, where Chen Xiaonuan was playing badminton with Tang Sugar. Behind Xiaonuan stood a group of girls from the school's cheerleading squad.

  In fact, without these cheerleaders, Sugar was at a disadvantage. How could she possibly beat Chen Xiaonuan, who was so agile and nimble?

  Xia Ye's gaze lingered on Chen Xiaonu for a short moment, but after recognizing him, he didn't bother to look at him again. His eyes shifted and fell on Tang Sugar, seeing her vibrant youthfulness, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but overflow with joy, but it quickly disappeared: Ah yes, she's very happy now. But that happiness wasn't because of him, but because of him!

  He looked at Chen Xiaonuan deeply for several more times.

  Xu Zhiwei said with some concern: "You... won't go looking for trouble with him, will you?"

  "No way!" Xia Ye said resolutely.

  This answer was beyond Xu Zhiwei's expectations. He said in surprise: "You gave up?"

  "Who said that?" Xia Ye's eyes were sharp as she stared at Xu Zhiwei.

  Xu Zhiwei shrank his neck like he was afraid of the cold: "Then what are you going to do?"

  "Robbing love with a horizontal sword!"

  "Digging under the wall?" Xu Zhiwei's jaw dropped in shock.

  "What a wall corner!" Xia Ye's voice was always low and calm at night, but suddenly rose in decibels, almost scaring Xu Zhiwei to death!

  His eyes were wide with indignation: "I've known Sugar for almost ten years, and he's only known her for a few days! He must have dug my corner when I wasn't around!"

  "Yes! Yes! Yes!" Xu Zhiwei hastily chimed in; "It was that naughty kid digging a hole! Xiao Ye, I'll definitely help you teach him a lesson!"

  "That's not necessary!" Xia Ye smiled faintly, "He's not a bad person after all."

  Not bad, huh? You've hooked up with the one you love! Xu Zhiwei muttered to himself in his heart. He felt that he had wasted all these years being bosom buddies with Xia Ye, and it seemed like he was getting more and more out of touch with him.

  "I'll deal with school first!" Xia Ye's face turned dark and terrifying.

  Xu Zhiwei had a feeling of impending doom.

  Summer night classes were also cancelled, and they rushed directly to the principal's office. Xu Zhiwei was actually entangled in the back, whether to follow or shrink his neck and ignore it.

  Finally, he plucked up the courage and stepped forward with his two trembling legs, as if rushing to the front line to die a heroic death. He thought that if Xia Ye really impulsively wanted to hit the principal, at least he could stop him. If not, he would also get involved. His wealthy father couldn't just stand by and do nothing, right? At that time, he would definitely rescue Xia Ye too.

  Xu Zhiwei saw Xia Ye walk to the principal's office door, and his heart suddenly rose to his throat, afraid that he would burst in.

  It's okay, Xia Ye knocked politely on the door and then went in.

  Xu Zhiwei followed in, stuttering.

  The principal looked up and stared at Xia Ye, whose face was not looking good. He was too famous, even the reclusive principal knew him, but he wondered why this kid had a belly full of fire?

  "Anything wrong?" The principal unfolded a smile, kindly asked, and took a glance at Xu Zhiwei's pale face behind Xia Ye. He didn't pose any threat, so he put his full attention back on Xia Ye.

  "Revoke the punishment for Sugar Sugar! Expel Tong Hua and Gu Xiannian!" Xia Ye's voice was firm and cold, making Principal Li shiver. This kid, not only is he a great student, but how can someone so young have such an intimidating aura that even adults can't handle?

  He still had a very gentle attitude and smiled brightly.

  This kid is the school's signboard, the school's giant panda, very precious. He just won first place in an international physics competition and brought glory to the country. The principal only looks at immediate benefits, with such a talent in this school, the level will be raised again, and when the time comes, high-quality students applying to Donghu Middle School will be like fish crossing the river, the school will become even more famous, and his own career will also rise rapidly. So, he must be carefully catered to, otherwise, if the academic tyrant gets angry and goes to another school, he will suffer a great loss!

  "So, Xia Ye, the school's disciplinary actions against any student are always carefully considered and cannot be taken lightly. It can't just be a matter of you saying something and then it being withdrawn or a punishment being given out arbitrarily. That's too childish!"

  "Is that school going to turn black and white upside down?" Xia Ye's sharp words were directed at Mai Meng, coldly interrogating.

  The principal was taken aback, unaware of the relationship between Xia Ye and Tang Sugar. He thought someone had instigated him to come and question him, driven by a sense of justice and passion typical of youth. He couldn't help but glance at Xu Zhiwei several times, thinking he was the one fanning the flames. Enraged, he put on a stern face and glared at Xu Zhiwei: "What are you doing here in my office instead of attending class? Are you spreading rumors?"

  "I——" Xu Zhiwei suddenly felt like June snow, more unjust than Dou E! He was clearly here to put out the fire, how did he become the one who started it?

  "Don't change the subject!" Xia Ye's sharp eyes stared coldly at the principal, saying sternly: "Why are you distorting the truth?"

  The principal felt his whole body burning hot, as if being roasted over a fire, and even began to sweat on his head: "Xia Ye, there must be some misunderstanding here." He continued to explain patiently.

  "I'm only asking if you'll do what I say or not!" Xia Ye said bluntly, with a hint of threat.

  The principal stared at him for a long time, knowing that he was not easy to get rid of, so he had to use the tactic of delaying: "Alright, Xia Ye, you go to class first, give me three days, and I will definitely give you an answer. After all, this matter is important, and I need to convene a meeting with the school leaders to discuss it. I alone can't make the decision, right?"

  "Alright! I'll give you three days!"
