Chrysanthemum Garden.
Hai Xiu put down his pen, while Feng Fei frowned and asked,
“What’s the matter?” jLxFvJ
Hai Xiu had no idea why he was being called out and shook his head.
“I’ll tell you about it when I come back.”
Ni Meilin left the classroom after she spoke to Hai Xiu. Feng Fei gave way and watched Hai Xiu follow her out, but he didn’t know why Hai Xiu was being called in the first place.
Since there were other teachers in the teacher’s office, Ni Meilin took him to an empty classroom next door and pondered over how she would explain to Hai Xiu. OwkQEg
“I was going to help you apply for the provincial top three places… but something happened.”
Hai Xiu was at a loss.
“What’s wrong? Is it…Is one of my scores not qualified enough? Or is the award record not prestigious enough? That’s okay, I can find the previous award records for the competitions organized by the participating foreign middle schools that can also be verified abroad…”
“It’s not for this reason.” Ni Meilin was exhausted and thought for a while before saying, “That is… the school sorted out your files and found that you had been punished in junior high school. It was even a very serious punishment…” NVpuFY
Hai Xiu’s voice stagnated, his face turning pale.
“Will the punishment in junior high school… also affect it?”
“It seems so.”
Ni Meilin paused and said, “But don’t worry, this will only affect you right now. When you go to university, no one will look at this kind of old account again, I promise you.” TPFywm
Hai Xiu pursed his pale lips and nodded.
“Okay. Thank you teacher Ni, it’s okay.”
Ni Meilin couldn’t bear it, and softly persuaded,
“Don’t take it to heart, it’s my fault. Originally, there were regulations in the school about this kind of stuff. I shouldn’t have guaranteed you in advance before it was decided.” NdMqV8
Hai Xiu shook his head, uneasy.
“I’m not sad because I didn’t get a spot, I, I…” Hai Xiu looked at Ni Meilin with eyes full of fear and worry, his voice trembling. “But how can I explain it to Feng Fei…”

Ni Meilin understood his meaning in an instant, and said in surprise, “You never told Feng Fei that you used to…”
“Shhh…” Hai Xiu hurriedly made a ‘hush’ gesture, and looked at the door of the public classroom that was slightly ajar, and begged in an almost silent voice. “Don’t let him know that I’m sick…” AY fck
Ni Meilin’s chest felt pained, and she regretted it instantly.
“You…” Ni Meilin’s voice became hoarse as soon as she spoke. She did not dare to tell Hai Xiufeng what she already knew at this time, for fear that it would stimulate him again. Ni Meilin adjusted her emotions and said, “Don’t worry about this. I’ll explain to him, and I promise he’ll be able to accept it.”
“And don’t always think about how to explain this to Feng Fei. I told you a long time ago. You can get better! As long as you improve to the level of a ‘normal’ person, what would you be afraid of then?”

“Thank you teacher Ni…I’ll go back now.”
“Don’t go back yet.” Ni Meilin stopped him. “If you go back now, Feng Fei will definitely ask you about what happened. You…you can help me go to the copy room to make copies of the test papers, and then go back after I explain the situation clearly to Feng Fei.”
Hai Xiu gratefully said, “Thank you, teacher Ni. Then… I…I will go now.” XzV0qa
Ni Meilin took out the papers from the folder she brought with her, asked Hai Xiu to make copies, and went downstairs to call Feng Fei.
A few minutes later, in the public classroom, Feng Fei wore an incredulous expression.
““What is this crap? He received that punishment when he was in junior high school. Can they still use it as a reason for not being selected even now that he’s a fucking third year in high school? What is this bullshit? Ha… Why don’t you plan to dig his family’s ancestral grave? Why don’t you check what his grandfather and great-grandfather did wrong too?”
“Watch your attitude!” Ni Meilin said sharply, “You think the punishment in his file was completely made up by others?” n1jRaY
“You should know better than me about how the punishment on his file came to be.” Feng Fei sneered. “Did you forget that it was you who told me this matter? You didn’t have this attitude back then.”
Ni Meilin smiled in anger,
“Are you about to blame me now?”
Feng Fei also knew that this matter had nothing to do with Ni Meilin, and suppressed his anger. He was silent for a moment, and said, OYZIcp
“Sorry, I couldn’t control myself for a moment… What you should do about Hai Xiu… I will try to figure out what to do about the punishment in the file. I will definitely be able to clear him before the result of the selection.”
Ni Meilin frowned.
Chrysanthemum Garden.
“What will you do?”
“In the process of transferring to another school, some of his files will be destroyed.” Feng Fei took out his mobile phone, opened his address book, and said, “Hai Xiu transferred to another school a year ago. It is not uncommon to lose files when transferring from a long distance away like he did…” Feng Fei remembered that a friend in his family had a similar situation before, and he had done it like this. If others could do it, then he believed that he could do it for Hai Xiu as well. RNQbSL
“Don’t bother.” Ni Meilin rubbed her forehead tiredly, and put her hand on Feng Fei’s phone to block him. “Don’t disturb your relatives, listen to me first.”
Feng Fei frowned, making Ni Meilin feel even more exhausted. She stated, 
“It’s useless to toss and turn so much. Hai Xiu’s punishment in junior high school will theoretically not affect this selection… Although there are regulations that you cannot have any major punishments during school, he was in junior high school back then, so he shouldn’t be affected.”
Feng Fei said angrily, “Then why did you–!” PxfW50
“Listen to me first!” Ni Meilin interrupted Feng Fei. “However, this morning, a girl came to me and told me that although Hai Xiu was silent on the surface and had very good grades, he, in fact, had bad morals in private, claiming that he is a homosexual and a pervert, specifically with men…”
Feng Fei stood up abruptly, his face instantly changed.
“You can imagine for yourself the way she described him.” Ni Meilin was also irritated. She barely held in her temper. “She asked me if I could handle it. If I couldn’t handle it, she would tell the school board and others… you tell me, how can I solve this?”
The blue veins on Feng Fei’s forehead bulged, and he said nothing. MvcIwH
Ni Meilin continued. “If this kind of news comes out, who do you think will suffer the most? Hai Xiu will soon take the college entrance examination, how could he not be affected? He already has that kind of illness, and if people gossip and point fingers at him, won’t his mental illness flare up again?”
“I promised that girl that I would deal with it very seriously.” Ni Meilin said calmly, “Even though I know that Hai Xiu shouldn’t lose his quota because of this; even though you may blame me for not being able to separate right from wrong; I can only deal with it like this. For certain things, although I can understand, others may not. Of course, you can also deny the rumors, but you can’t control what people think. Oftentimes attacks by public opinion are more terrifying than actual harm.”
Feng Fei closed his eyes and nodded.
“I understand you are doing the best thing in this situation…” P5M kD
“Of course, I can also tell her that this can’t be a reason to judge the quality of her classmates, but if she can’t get the results from me, what do you think she will do next? If this kind of foolish person goes crazy… Who knows what she’ll do.” Ni Meilin also felt suppressed. “But… I talked to the girl and told her that an art candidate like her might become a public figure in the future. Once she becomes famous, she will forget about her student days. Something that is not so glorious can be easily unearthed. This kind of thing tells people everywhere that she ruins others, and she bullies and slanders classmates… are all stains that she can’t cleanse.”
Ni Meilin said with exhaustion. “She was frightened by me, and should not be making a fuss about it anymore. She…she looked very uncomfortable at the time, and I feel that she is also scared, and should not continue to make trouble.”
Feng Fei said quietly, 
“What is that girl’s name?” 6TN7Wn
Ni Meilin did not answer, and said, “I was afraid that Hai Xiu would think about it too much, and would be too stressed while preparing for the exam, so I didn’t mention it. The reason that the director remembered… he was selected as a candidate and then removed from the list using his previous bad record as a reason.“
Feng Fei sneered.

“Does the director also know?”
“I didn’t elaborate…” Ni Meilin asked back, “Otherwise, how do you think I should explain to the director that there is no place for Hai Xiu in the selection? Do you think the school leaders would agree?” 1z ldo
Ni Meilin kept an eye on him and said, “This is also to let the director remind the girl’s head teacher to supervise the girl for me, and make sure she doesn’t make any trouble. Maybe… if they do their job well, they can also let the girl promise not to mention it again, and there might be opportunities for the quota…although there is little hope.”
Feng Fei asked again. 
“What is the girl’s name?”
Ni Meilin said irritably,  lq4VNX
“What’s the use of asking this? What would you do if you knew?”
“It’s Ji Yaqi, isn’t it?” Feng Fei stated, “A female art examinee who deliberately wanted to make trouble for Hai Xiu… It was definitely her.”
Ni Meilin said helplessly, 
“Feng Fei, know that Hai Xiu will have to carry the blame of any actions you do on impulse.” a5T8sX
“Don’t worry.” Feng Fei’s face was dark and scary, but his tone calmed down. “I agree with the way you handled this, but I have a request. You tell Hai Xiu what happened just now, don’t let him think that the matter from his middle school days can still affect him right now.”
(EN for some reason Feng Fei is acting like a mafia boss hahaha)
Ni Meilin hesitated.
“Are you sure you can guarantee that he wouldn’t get worse?” x lidT
“I’m sure.” Feng Fei put away his phone. “What Hai Xiu is afraid of most…I know best.”
Ni Meilin hesitated for a few seconds and nodded.
“Okay, I’ll tell him in a moment.”
“Thank you, teacher Ni.” Feng Fei was completely calm at this moment. “I was a jerk just now, if it weren’t for you… Hai Xiu has a lot of things going on in his life right now, so I will try my best to help him through it.” FGCoQO
Ni Meilin waved her hand and said, 
“No need to tell me this. Today’s matter… I know that I didn’t handle it quite right, but this is all I can do. I’ll go and talk to Hai Xiu.”

Feng Fei nodded.
“You’ve worked hard…I will leave first.” cz862X
Ni Meilin felt that Feng Fei was faintly angry, and said, 
“You…why don’t you sit down for a while, don’t be impulsive.”
Feng Fei shook his head.
“Don’t worry, you should worry about Hai Xiu right now. I will go back first.” nZ1bl0
Feng Fei walked out of the public classroom.
He went all the way downstairs, and as he walked, he unbuttoned the first two buttons on the top of his shirt, and rolled up the cuffs, revealing his thin arms bursting with veins.
Feng Fei walked faster and faster. He didn’t stop at the slightest when he passed Class 7 and walked all the way to the classroom of Class 5 and walked directly in through the classroom’s front entrance as if it was empty.
The history teacher from Class 5 was still teaching, and was shocked when he saw Feng Fei walk in like this. eOQUyX
“Hey, you…hey, who let you in?! Stop him!”
The students in Class 5 didn’t react for a while, and only a few boys stood up to stop him when they heard the words of teacher Luo. Feng Fei pushed away the boys trying to stop him with force, and several boys slammed into the table and chairs beside him, making them collide against each other. Feng Fei’s eyes were filled with cruelty, and those several boys dared not come any closer.
Feng Fei walked to Ji Yaqi.
Ji Yaqi had a bad feeling in her heart. Her face was pale with fright, and her legs were too weak to stand up. xQYIFS
Feng Fei sneered at her, raised his fist and smashed it down!
With a bang, Ji Yaqi hugged her head and screamed. Feng Fei’s fist fell like thunder, and smashed a deep crack into Ji Yaqi’s desk.
The whole class was so silent you could hear a pin drop.
Feng Fei leaned down and whispered, “Trying to threaten me behind my back?” UvOJix
When Ji Yaqi opened her mouth, she found she was unable to speak.
“You can only do this much to irritate me?” Feng Fei stared at Ji Yaqi with a piercing gaze.
Chrysanthemum Garden.
“Do you believe that if I were to retaliate, I could stop you from ever graduating?”
Ji Yaqi’s face was pale, and she nodded, shivering. PUAFSY
“You’d better believe it.” Feng Fei straightened up. “Do it again, and I’ll make sure neither of us will graduate. I don’t care whether I graduate or not. Let’s see if you dare to play any more games.”
Feng Fei rubbed his wrist and turned to leave the classroom.
It took half a minute for the whole class to react. The history teacher hurried to see what happened to Ji Yaqi, who felt like she was scared to death. After a while, she started to cry regretfully, hugging her arms in fear.
