nChapter 221: Investigating Who?

nXiang Huai blinked.

nXue Xi ignored his flirtatious eyes and continued reading. She’d memorized English vocabulary in the morning and was currently doing Mathematical Olympiad questions.

n

n

nSince the first day of the camp, everyone in the Golden Autumn Camp had been given a bunch of papers, so they definitely never had to worry about not having any exercise questions to answer.

nXue Xi was doing her questions seriously when a commotion finally came from outside the classroom.

nLi Xi was in the midst of a heated discussion. When she heard the commotion, she sat up straight and straightened her back. She looked at the door in high spirits.

nAfter a while, Mr. Wei walked in with a few people.

n

n

nThey were all dressed in working attire and were very united. They were holding recording pens and other materials, as though they were going to record something.

nWhen they entered, the entire room fell silent.

nLi Xi gulped and exclaimed, “F*ck, isn’t this commotion too big?”

nWhy is it like that…?

n

n

nDoes a mere student need such a huge line-up?

nWhen Li Xi exclaimed, the rest of the students also panicked.

nAlthough everyone became afraid after what Li Xi had told them yesterday, some of them did not take it to heart. Was their offense so bad as hitting the teacher? How could the punishment be so serious?

nHowever, seeing this today… Everyone gulped. The student beside Li Xi said, “This… Isn’t this too serious?”

nLi Xi became even more elated. She raised her chin very high and was very arrogant. Smiling, she said, “See, I’ve already told you that the Mathematical Olympiad will never allow someone like Xue Xi to exist!”

nEveryone nodded.

n

n

nLi Xuekai frowned too. He could not help but say, “We simply butted heads with the teacher. It’s not that serious, right?”

nSeeing that he was speaking up for Xue Xi time and time again, Li Xi immediately said, “Brainiac, stop talking. Isn’t it a big deal to talk back to the teacher?! If you’re let off for talking back to the teacher now, in the future, you might become disobedient and do things that will hurt society even more!”

nLi Xuekai: “… Li Xi, you can’t be so rigid. Moreover, Xue Xi rebutted the teacher because the teacher insulted a student first. Plus, Xue Xi did not say anything nasty.”

nLi Xi said angrily, “You’re already going so far as to criticize the teacher for being inhuman. Isn’t that too much? Brainiac, aren’t you being too biased?”

nShe continued discontentedly, “Look at her. She’s flirting with that male student beside her. It’s obvious that she’s abnormal, but you’re actually biased toward her?”

nLi Xuekai frowned. “Li Xi, everyone is free to speak up, but I hope you won’t rise to making personal attacks. We are all classmates!”

nLi Xi was so angry that she wanted to say something when Mr. Wei said, “Cough, alright. Everyone, quiet down. The organizers of the Math Olympiad group came to the school today to inspect matters and ask everyone a few questions. Don’t be nervous and answer them as you please.”

nAfter saying that, Mr. Wei looked at the Math Olympiad organizers and said, “Go ahead.”

n

n

nThe small group sat on the stage. Someone lifted his head, looking very friendly. It did not seem like they were quarrelsome. He said, “I want to ask some questions about Mr. Li.”

nThe moment he said this, Li Xi stood up. “Teachers, I think I’m very qualified to speak. Since the day Xue Xi joined the camp, she has been playing some superstitious games. She has proclaimed herself to be a goddess of studies. She wants everyone to touch her and take advantage of her luck. Her attitude is not good!”

nZhang Xiaoxiao suddenly stood up. “That’s not what Xue Xi said. I was the one who shouted it. Everyone was just joking, so why did you take it for real? If I said that you’re a good luck charm and I touched you, does that mean you are also playing with superstitions?”

nLi Xi sneered. “I’m telling the truth. Aren’t you going to let others say it? Moreover, it’s not good to create a bad atmosphere because it will affect my studies!”

nAfter saying that, she continued, “And the next day, Xue Xi started to talk back to the teacher openly!”

nAt this point, the organizing staff immediately asked, “Is Mr. Li that teacher?”

nLi Xi nodded. “Yes! It’s Mr. Li! Mr. Li gave an unsolvable question for everyone to answer. Xue Xi got angry when she could not solve it. She told off Mr. Li for being inhuman! This is what all the students present heard!”

nZhang Xiaoxiao immediately said, “It’s not like that. It’s…”

n“No? What does that look like, then? She didn’t tell off anyone?”

nZhang Xiaoxiao choked. “Telling off is one thing, but because…”

n“No matter what the reason, it’s not right to openly talk back to the teacher in class!” Li Xi’s words suppressed Zhang Xiaoxiao’s words and made her speechless.

nThe staff asked, “Why did she tell off Mr. Li?”

nBefore Li Xi could speak, Li Xuekai said, “Because Mr. Li is undeserving of respect when he scolds students.”

n

n

nLi Xuekai stood up. “Mr. Li has targeted Xue Xi many times in class. There was a classmate who asked to borrow a pen from her, but he did not ask any clarifying questions and instead made Xue Xi stand for the exam for three hours! After that, he insulted Xue Xi many times! It was indeed wrong for Xue Xi to tell off the teacher in the class, but I feel that the situation was special. I think Xue Xi’s circumstances were understandable! If you want to kick out Xue Xi, then you’ll have to kick me out too!”

nLi Xi panicked. “Li Xuekai, how can you threaten the teachers?”

nLi Xuekai calmly said, “This is not a threat. As a student, she is powerless to resist, and we can only use such extreme actions to maintain justice.”

nLi Xi mocked, “Are you crazy?! For Xue Xi’s sake, you’re actually disregarding your future? You’re simply too stubborn!”

nThe staff interrupted, “Which classmate did he scold?”

nEveryone turned to look at Xiang Huai.

nXiang Huai slowly raised his hand and lazily said, “Oh, me.”

nThe staff saw him and was stunned. He took out a pen and paper to record. “What’s your name? Why did Mr. Li scold you?”

nXiang Huai shot a glance at Li Zixuan and said, “Li Zixuan.”

nThe staff nodded after writing down his name. Just as he was about to continue speaking, Li Xi could not help but say, “Aren’t you here to investigate Xue Xi’s matter? Why do you keep asking about Mr. Li? Xue Xi is being a prideful person in this camp. This kind of person is indeed unsuitable for the Mathematical Olympiad!”

nBefore she could finish speaking, the staff interrupted her in surprise. “Who said that we’re here to investigate Xue Xi? We’re actually investigating Mr. Li!”

nLi Xi was stunned. Her head was filled with question marks: “?”

nShe asked in disbelief, “What did you say?!”

nInvestigating Mr. Li? Did they misspeak?
