Love So Sweet

On his way to the school, the principal; found out the story from one of the teachers and heard the rumors about Bai Xi Xi and Fu Chen for the first time.

Yesterday, Teacher Du was determined to handle things on her own. Therefore, the rumor did not reach his ears.

The Principal saw the names of the students involved and started to panic.

Bai Xi Xi... wasn’t she related to the Zhang family?

There were not many people knew about this. But he was the principal. How can he not know about influential figures in his school?

It took the Principal a while to process this information. Then, he started to wonder which person was stupid enough to cause trouble for this student.

Taking a deep breath, the Principal asked the driver to drive faster and reach the school sooner. His mind whirled to think of a solution so that he would not offend any big figures.

Teacher Du’s expression lit up when she finally saw the Principal appear in front of her. She has been talking to both Zhang Li Xue and Wei Zi Kai for a while. Each time that she spent time with both of them made her grow anxious.

.....

“Principal, you are here!” Teacher Du stood up quickly.

The Principal scanned the room to look at the people in front of him. His gaze fell on both Bai Xi Xi and Fu Chen. Then, he looked at Teacher Du again. “What is going on?”

Zhang Li Xue stepped forward and spoke, “Hello, Principal Mu.” She stretched her hand for a handshake. “My name is Zhang Li Xue. I am Bai Xi Xi’s guardian.”

The light in Principal Mu’s eyes flickered, realizing that the person who stood in front of him was a member of the Zhang family.

However, he still put on a smile and shook hands with her. “Hello.” His back was sweating.

Zhang Li Xue glanced at Wei Zi Kai and spoke, “This is Wei Zi Kai, a lawyer from Wei & Co.”

The corner of his lips began to twitch.

Who did not know that Wei & Co was one of the best law firms in Y City? Moreover, he happened to know that the Zhang family was very close to the Wei’s.

The Principal’s headache was coming again.

He really wanted to know who was that person who dared to mess up with Bai Xi Xi.

Principal Mu turned to Teacher Du and asked her to explain what was going on again.

It turned out that yesterday, someone spread a rumor that Bai Xi Xi and Fu Chen were dating.

Teacher Du had talked to them both and Bai Xi Xi and Fu Chen both had clarified their side of the story. However, someone decided to post a few photos of them on the school forum last evening.

A lot of students had seen that photos before someone deleted them.

“Principal Mu, initially I don’t plan to get involved in this matter,” Zhang Li Xue said. “However, this matter would hurt Bai Xi Xi’s reputation in school. I can’t stand still and do nothing. Someone had malicious intentions toward the two innocent kids. Letting that person go isn’t that right. Principal Mu, I hope that you can understand the reason I had to get involved.”

The principal had an understanding smile on his face. “Of course. Miss Zhang, I understand.” He turned to Teacher Du and spoke, “Teacher Du, how was your investigation?”

“Principal...” Teacher Du had an awkward look on her face. “I am still investigating this matter. There were a lot of students and no one seemed to know where did the rumor started. No one wanted to confess anything.”

The Principal shot an unhappy look at Teacher Du.

Wei Zi Kai stepped up at this time and spoke, “Principal Mu, creating rumor was one thing, but posting a few photos of Bai Xi Xi and Student Fu Chen on the school forum was wrong. A lot of people had seen those photos before the post was taken down.”

The Principal looked at the screenshot of those photos posted on the forum last night and frowned.

In his opinion, it was just a few photos of two classmates walking home together. How was this a dating rumor and how did such a rumor become the talk among the students?

With his experience as the principal at the school, Principal Mu had a feeling that someone was fanning the flame behind the scene. And this person was determined to smear Student Bai Xi Xi and Fu Chen’s reputation.

After all, the school did not allow students to date.

Principal Mu glanced at Teacher Du again and asked, “Teacher Du, do we know who posted these photos on the school forum? Bring that person over.”

Teacher Du hesitated. “Principal Mu, our IT Department had tried to look into this matter but could not find that person. It seemed that the person had created a fake account to post this rumor about Bai Xi Xi and Fu Chen.

Principal Mu had an impatient look on his face.

He knew that if this matter was not resolved today, it would only cause trouble for him and the school.

“Principal Mu, don’t worry. We already knew the person who posted those photos on the school forum,” Wei Zi Kai said. He took out a stack of papers and spoke, “Last night, we managed to trace back the post and found that it was posted from a nearby internet cafe.”

Of course, the person who did the work was Zhang Yi Hai.

“We looked at the internet cafe’s CCTV and found that person.” Wei Zi Kai placed the documents on the table to let the principal and Teacher Du take a look. “Principal Mu, Teacher Du, do you recognize this person?”

Teacher Du’s expression changed when she looked at the photos. “This... This is my student. Jian Chi.”

Principal Mu narrowed his eyes. “Then, what are you waiting for? Go and call Student Jian Chi over and ask him what is going on!”
