Punishment, Cai Lao's Another Deliberate Difficulty

"Uh, Cai Lao, I feel this matter is indeed inappropriate, so please allow me to explain briefly," the law enforcement officer said.

"Fine, whatever."

"That's right. Actually, after our investigation, we found that Wu Yang Jin, who Work-study student, had a heart-to-heart talk with his companion late at night and then shared the good news with his family."

"Then, Wu Yang Jin, feeling somewhat excited, wanted to find someone to share his joy, so he suddenly thought that Yuanen might not have slept. Moreover, the other party did not intend to contact Yue Zhengyu."

"Next, it was because I saw a dormitory and thought it was Yuanen's dormitory, but I didn't know what they were doing. Also, if it weren't for this, Wu Yang Jin might not have known that the other person was a girl."

"Finally, seeing the dorm lights on, I wanted to go closer to take a look, but I was afraid of disturbing them, so I just glanced over, thinking I'd stop if they were busy. But then, I happened to see someone washing... uh, washing..."

The more he talked about it, the more embarrassed he felt, and this must have been the most shameful and infuriating thing for Yuanen.

"Alright, no need to say more, I understand." Cai Yue'er waved her hand and said.

Therefore, not only is it embarrassing to talk about this, but even the person who caused the accident is extremely embarrassed.

However, after hearing even a little bit of the explanation, Cai Lao's expression still became strange.

"In short, it was Work-study student Wu Yang Jin, for some inexplicable reason, wanted to share his joy and ended up accidentally peeping at a young girl taking a bath, even though he claimed he didn't know it. But that's what led to this whole series of events," Cai Lao said coldly.

While his words seemed to imply ignorance and that it was a fluke, they also contained harsh criticism.

However, after Cai Lao finished speaking, everyone fell silent.

However, Tang Wu Lin and his group, including Wu Yang Jin, were the only ones who experienced a different kind of emotion.

Yuanen, who was standing next to Wu Yang Jin, also sensed something was wrong, as if the others were showing signs of dislike.

Of course, Yuanen couldn't possibly have imagined at this moment that what the others were thinking was that they knew Cai Lao might use this as an excuse to make things difficult for them.

"Alright, that's right. The teachers might not believe it, but I absolutely didn't do it on purpose, nor did I have any malicious intent. It's true, I just stumbled upon this by accident and wanted to share my joy. However, overall, whether this incident was intentional or not, it was indeed caused by my recklessness. Therefore, I can accept whatever decision is made in the final matter," Wu Yang Jin said.

Yuanen could tell from this that the previous few sentences were meant for Cai Lao.

In other words, it's up to you whether you believe it or not, but he certainly didn't do it on purpose.

However, regardless of the reason for peeping at Yuanen taking a bath, he admitted his mistake and accepted the punishment.

However, even with such words, and even though Yuanen knew him to some extent, he was still very unhappy.

Even so, Wu Yang Jin's apology was actually quite sincere, and he did genuinely want to explain beforehand.

"Hmph, you're really something, and it's only been a short time since the start of the semester? You think it wasn't intentional? You just say it is? If this kind of thing isn't punished, it won't set a good example or serve as a warning to all the students." At this moment, Cai Lao said sharply.

Cai Lao seemed to be thinking about something, but he didn't show it on his face.

"Trying to deny it is useless. So, Work-study student Wu Yang Jin, you! As the perpetrator of this accident, the instigator of this incident, I don't care whether you did it intentionally or not."

"Your punishment will be a deduction of 40,000 Contribution Points, which you must repay within one month, or you will be expelled from school. In addition, you will need to compensate Yuan En Yehui for her emotional distress with 50,000... no, 60,000 Contribution Points. Why? Because we're afraid you'll be dissatisfied and even smug. And you'll have three months to pay it off," Cai Lao said.

Yuanen was indeed wronged by this, but she wasn't completely brainless.

Therefore, upon hearing Cai Lao's punishment for Wu Yang Jin, he was momentarily stunned, but this feeling was quickly overshadowed by his sense of grievance.

However, everyone who heard about this punishment gasped in shock.

Forty thousand, plus sixty thousand, that makes a total of one hundred thousand Contribution Points to repay.

Wu Yang Jin raised his head in response, but did not show anything, though he understood that Cai Lao on purpose.

"Also, as the class monitor, your extra Contribution Points will be halved for the next six months. Meanwhile, the Contribution Points for the Forging Committee Member will not be deducted for the time being," said Cai Lao.

As a result, even Yue Zhengyu, whose brain was probably not very big, felt that something was not quite right when he said that.

However, it is true that 100,000 Contribution Points is a lot.

However, Wu Yang Jin is naturally lucky, and with his own strength, he has enough Contribution Points.

At the same time, there are many ways to exchange Contribution Points, whether it's returning them or providing compensation, and how to do so.

However, Gu Yue and Hu Meier were furious about the extra Contribution Points Cai Lao added and the deducted Contribution Points for the class monitor.

Of course, the others were also in a bad mood, but no one could be blamed, because they couldn't be allowed to stir things up at this point.

"No, I refuse to accept this!" Tang Wu Lin said without hesitation.

At this moment, everyone's eyes were on him.

"Oh? You're still not convinced?" Cai Lao asked.

"That's right, I'm not convinced, this is unfair!" Tang Wu Lin said.

"Yang Jin made a mistake, but that's no excuse for deliberately withholding funds. There can be punishment, and I would accept it if it were me. But, Cai Lao, what you're doing is simply..."

"Alright, that's enough! Let me tell you, you might think it's unfair, but remember, this world and this society are realistic."

"Fairness? That's laughable. Neither you nor I have the strength to talk about fairness. If you're a small country, and others see you as weak and attack you in various ways, and those opponents might even be stronger than you..."

"At this point, you're telling those people it's unfair? Do you think they'll feel any remorse? Let me tell you, you think I'm unruly and abusive because of my status. I'm telling you, wait until you're strong enough to rival me before you talk to me about fairness!"

"But you're spouting fallacies, using reason to..."

"This will be the case. If you disagree, you can drop out of school."

"Oh, right, you just mentioned it, so I should continue. As Work-study student, especially you, Tang Wu Lin, as the class monitor of First Year, Class One, Grade 1, and simultaneously the class monitor of two classes, you failed to promptly resolve the situation when your companion got into trouble."

"Furthermore, if you don't resolve conflicts when they arise, and someone doesn't arrive in time, wouldn't you also join the fight? Let me tell you, no matter what your situation was at the time, you couldn't escape."
