The Road Has Narrowed
The messenger of justice always arrives late, only appearing after the villains have been subdued.
That's how it's always portrayed in TV dramas, Su Qi always thought it was just for the effect the drama wanted.
But after watching Yang Ming being subdued and one person after another being taken into the infirmary, Su Qi realized that the TV series was indeed true. It was based on real events.
Principal Lin Sidong hung up the phone with his daughter.
It sounds noisy outside? Maybe the disciplinary office meeting is over? I glanced at my phone—that shouldn't be the case!
With questions in mind, he left the principal's office. From a distance, he saw a large crowd gathered in the infirmary, so he quickly went over.
Pushing through the crowd, I saw Yang lying naked on the ground, covered only by a quilt.
There was also a very large bluish-purple circle under his left eye. Principal Lin Sidong was completely bewildered. What happened? He was injured and needed to sleep in bed? Wasn't the ground cold?
"It hurts, it hurts—"
Just as I was wondering, I heard a familiar voice.
She looked like that little girl who had just come out of her principal's office.
At this moment, Su Qi is receiving wound disinfection treatment.
Although she is now a girl, she used to be a boy and didn't take the pain of disinfection seriously.
But this time she was really wrong. Disinfection is not a trivial matter, and it really hurts.
She was truly crying now, looking at the white medicine on the cotton ball again, and she pulled her left arm back.
Unfortunately, she was firmly restrained by Wang Zijin.
"Stop fooling around, disinfect first!" Wang Zijin felt a little sorry for the little girl at this moment, but the room hadn't been cleaned for too long, and dust getting into her skin could cause illness!
Gu Panpan whispered in his ear, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid!"
Teacher Liu Li felt a pang of guilt as she held the cotton ball, especially since the little girl's right knee had just been disinfected and a lot of white disinfectant foam had come out, causing the little girl to convulse in pain.
Looking at that new, juicy cotton ball, Su Qi instinctively wanted to dodge after just one glance!
"It doesn't hurt at all, don't be afraid. It doesn't hurt, it doesn't hurt!" Teacher Liu Li said, deliberately softening her voice.
Under normal circumstances, Su Qi would definitely remind Teacher Liu Li that, for example, when experiencing pain from an injection, the word "pain" would only emphasize how painful the injury is, which would have the opposite effect.
But at this moment, she was like a fish on a sticky board, completely suppressed! She could only watch helplessly as the round and thick cotton swab came over.
Watching the cotton swab getting closer and closer.
Su Qi shouted: Don't come any closer!
A moment later, Su Qi, lying on the hospital bed, shed two golden tears. Her left arm and right knee were also wrapped in thick gauze.
At this moment, she was complaining to the system: "Why does it hurt so much even though it's just a scrape?!"
"The host's skin undergoes a first change— Condensing Fat' —becoming more delicate and smooth than normal. This skin Condensing Fat change occurs by increasing the activity of skin cells! This is one aspect; the second is that it affects both men and women..."
The pain receptors in the affected individuals differ! This may be because the host is not yet accustomed to the pain from their first injury!
Su Qi was stunned by the system's answer. Was the difference really that big? This was too painful.
Thinking about how she had just shed a few tears over such a minor injury, Su Qi felt extremely ashamed.
I'm a grown man, and I couldn't even overcome the pain! How could I be so weak?
But Gu Panpan and the other girls surrounding her seemed normal. They thought the white foam from the disinfection process was quite frightening! And that white silk stained with blood looked rather creepy too!
They thought that if such a cute little girl didn't cry, there was something wrong with her.
Inside the principal's office, Yang Ming, wrapped in a sheet, looked somewhat awkwardly at the principal, whose face was as dark as Li Kui's.
She had completely lost the ferocity she displayed when she was attacking him; she was like a weak lamb!
Wang Zijin looked at Yang Ming with utter disdain. If he still maintained the ruthlessness he had shown earlier, she would have admired him to some extent.
He looks like the epitome of bullying the weak and fearing the strong!
"What was your mindset when you did this?" Principal Lin Sidong asked, looking at Yang Ming in front of him.
Having just watched the recording, he couldn't imagine what Su Qi would have been like now without Wang Zijin's intervention.
He was really disappointed to see such a student, because the essence of education is to improve a person's quality.
As a student at Su University, one must have studied diligently for ten years to gain admission. Yet, this high-achieving student hasn't even established the most basic values! What a failure!
Yang Ming looked at the principal with a serious expression. The principal, who was usually humorous, was quite frightened by this change in his demeanor.
"Speak up!" Before Lin Sidong could speak, Wang Zijin, who was standing to the side, spoke up.
Her voice carried an imposing pressure that made Principal Lin Sidong take a second look. He knew Wang Zijin; after all, a university only had one Student Council president.
Most Student Council presidents take office in their junior year, but Wang Zijin is only a sophomore yet she already seems capable of taking over. She has been working on the handover recently, and it's a certainty that she will become the Student Council president this semester.
Considering the facts she had just recounted and her current aura, Principal Lin Sidong couldn't help but think that this year's Student Council president was quite capable.
Yang Ming was somewhat helpless at this moment. He was not wearing any clothes, and after listening to the principal's statement, he realized that his behavior had reached the point where he could be arrested directly!
"I just wanted to talk to her, that's all! After all, he's a man, isn't he?" At this moment, Yang Ming recalled a joke told by Zhang San, a popular lawyer on the Douyin platform.
Zhang San took a fancy to Li Si's wife and, taking advantage of Li Si's absence, rushed into the room intending to commit an indecent act.
But before it even started, Li Si went back to his home and put it under control.
Zhang San consulted the first lawyer, who said that he only wanted to rob people of their property and had nothing to do with the people involved.
But the second lawyer said, "What you want is the male Master of the household, what does it have to do with the Master?" Yang Ming now felt like he was Zhang San, and he thought his move was brilliant. But he was met with indifferent glances from the two lawyers.
It was as if it was silently telling him, "We've guessed everything you're thinking!"
Principal Lin Sidong, with a dark expression, picked up his phone and played a clip of Yang Ming's performance in the infirmary!
That reminded him that Su Qi could be considered male, but Wang Zijin definitely couldn't!
Although Wang Zijin was unaware of the recording, she knew that the current legal system was very comprehensive. Even men were protected! Therefore, his imprisonment was unavoidable!
Logically speaking, she could have left the principal's office long ago after stating the facts.
Her purpose at this moment was to prevent the principal from being too lenient and letting Yang Ming off the hook.
As someone about to take over as Student Council president, Wang Zijin was well aware of the principal's current stance. Although he was angry with Yang Ming, he was even more afraid of damage to the school's reputation.
Wang Zijin could understand, but she couldn't accept it.
She wouldn't allow anyone who harmed Su Qi's past to escape due punishment! After all, in her eyes, the school...
Principal Lin Sidong was indeed thinking about the matter, just as Wang Zijin had guessed, weighing the pros and cons.
Handing it over to the public security authorities is tantamount to making this public. Such an incident on campus will have a significant impact on the school administration. It definitely wasn't something he wanted to see!
But if he gets off easy, not to mention there's the Student Council president watching him closely.
If he were to be spared, the thought of that little girl screaming for help on the 8th floor, and him not answering his own phone calls, would be unbearable.
Si Dong immediately regretted it!
Su Qi's pale face in the infirmary just now showed that she was terrified. If this matter were resolved hastily, wouldn't that be unfair to that little girl Su Qi?
Yang Ming looked at the principal, who held the key to her fate, with a thoughtful expression on his face.
Then he remembered that the root of the problem was Su Qi, the person he had always bullied. His eyes immediately filled with three parts resentment and seven parts ruthlessness.
Little did they know, this action was the final straw that broke the camel's back!
Wang Zijin breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Principal Lin Sidong also giving Yang Ming that look! She looked at Yang Ming, wrapped in a sheet, with a hint of pity, and silently said to him in her heart:
This time, your path has really narrowed!
