Lin Ruyu could only nod aggrievedly and let out an "oh", then stood up and supported the half-dead Ye Hao...

"Very good, very good! Xue Zhaolong, I usually see you being very well-behaved, but who would have thought you're this kind of person? You disregard the camaraderie between classmates and resort to violence. As the class sports representative, you're ruthless and cold. Do you even see me, Teacher Xia, as your teacher? Are you challenging my authority?" Xia Zhu said, her beautiful eyes flickering with rage as she looked at the silent Xue Zhaolong sitting below.

"I didn't! Teacher, I really didn't..." Xue Zhaolong protested, looking aggrieved. But anyone could tell he was putting on an act, as everyone had clearly seen him hit Ye Hao, yet he was pretending to be wronged.

"Then tell me, what is the truth of the matter? I want to hear whether it's Ye Hao who incited everyone to frame you, or if you really hit Ye Hao and won't admit it! Here's your chance, either explain why you hit Ye Hao or tell the whole story so I can help you analyze who's right and who's wrong." Xia Zhu, filled with anger, looked at Xue Zhaolong, but then glanced at Ye Hao, who looked half-dead, and walked over with some concern, asking softly, "Are you alright?"

Hearing this from behind, Xue Zhaolong felt even more internally wounded. I'm the one who's truly hurt, okay? Since when has the world started overturning my perceptions! My world view, values, all have been overturned. The so-called eyes of the masses are as clear as a bell, I won't believe it anymore!

"Teacher, I'm fine. Zhaolong didn't hit me hard. See, I can still move freely now." Ye Hao said, and even turned his body, but as he turned, he let out a "hiss" sound, which gave everyone the impression that Ye Hao was enduring pain to exonerate Xue Zhaolong.

In their hearts, they felt Ye Hao was so great. Such a man does not fuss over small matters and is worth being close friends with!

Xue Zhaolong slapped his forehead and shouted, "Shit, can you act any more?"

But at this time, his two mischievous friends came to add fuel to the fire, and Xue Zhaolong had the urge to run out of the campus...

"Ye, don't move. Don't move. The teacher will check your injury. If Zhaolong really hit you hard, I will cover all your losses myself. Even though I don't have much money, if my good friend made a mistake, I have to back him up. As for repentance, let him handle it alone!" Lu Yunsong said to Xue Zhaolong in a disappointed tone but was actually laughing heartily inside.

"Exactly! If Yun Song can't pay enough, I'll chip in a bit too. It's all our fault for not stopping Long in time when he made a move, letting him cause such a disaster. Long, you shouldn't have done that." Zhuorong Town expressed his regret, and severely criticized Xue Zhaolong again.

Xue Zhaolong, at this moment, felt as if not ten thousand but billions of "Ni Mas" were galloping through his mind, unable to describe his current mood.

"All of you, shut up," Xia Zhu glared at Lu Yunsong and Zhuorong Town, then turned to Ye Hao and said, "Ye, where did Zhaolong hit you? Let the teacher check to see if you need to go to a hospital for a check-up." Xia Zhu intended to see where Ye Hao was hit, if it was serious, she would take appropriate measures, if not, she would downplay the issue...

"Teacher, really, there's no need, Zhaolong didn't hit hard. I can understand his passion for liking a girl. He went crazy because he likes her, really, no need, teacher..." Ye Hao held back his laughter, thinking about how he would deal with Xue Zhaolong this time, plotting wickedly in his mind.

"No, I must see if the hit was light or heavy. If it's too heavy, I won't let him off. If there's nothing serious, that's fine. Where did he hit you? Let me see..." Xia Zhu resolutely insisted on Ye Hao showing where he was hit.

"Well... Teacher, there's no need, right? If my muscles are swollen from the hit, does that count as serious?" Ye Hao asked with a mischievous smile.

"Of course, if it's swollen, it's serious. Show me!" Xia Zhu nodded, but there was tension in her eyes. She truly hoped Xue Zhaolong hit lightly; after all, the less trouble, the better, and at least it wouldn't result in parents being called to school just as the term begins.

Especially with a big family like the Xue's, if their offspring caused trouble at school, prompting their parents to come, they would see it as a disgrace and might give Xue Zhaolong a hard time. Xia Zhu was a kind-hearted woman who, even if students made big mistakes, would give them a chance to explain. If they were stubborn, she would naturally not stick to the old rules, but if a student could provide a passable reason, even as an excuse, she would find a way to be lenient.

"Really want to see?" Ye Hao asked, holding back his laughter.

"Yes! Let me see," Xia Zhu said sternly.

The classmates in the class all put on a playful look, eager to see how Ye Hao's belly looked after being punched by Xue Zhaolong.

"Well... Teacher, shall we forget it? I'm afraid it might scare you because I feel my muscles have gotten swollen, even in lumps, no need, right?" Ye Hao sincerely wanted to laugh at this moment. Damn it, I have abs. I wonder if I could fool this beautiful teacher and make Xue Zhaolong pay.

"Ye, please adopt the mindset of a student. Are you embarrassed in front of your teacher? Even if you're entirely swollen, you're still my student. Show me quickly." Xia Zhu said seriously, looking at Ye Hao.

"Alright then!" Ye Hao put on a face as if he was reluctantly complying, and under everyone's gaze, slowly lifted his shirt...

The first thing visible was a scar over ten centimeters long, followed by a bulging muscle. The protruding muscle didn't make his body look menacing but made people feel that his waist had a powerful explosive force upon glancing...

"Ah!" Xia Zhu screeched loudly, then turned to glare at Xue Zhaolong, shouting, "Xue Zhaolong, look at you, you even managed to swell Ye Hao's belly. How could you hit so hard? Don't you have any sense of camaraderie left? Even if there was a huge grudge, couldn't you talk it out? You... go to the counselor's office immediately."

Xia Zhu's words made Xue Zhaolong show a face more wronged than Dou E, thinking to himself: Teacher, can't you see? Can't you see that's a six-pack? That's a six-pack...

Xue Zhaolong inwardly groaned powerlessly, but under Xia Zhu's angry gaze, he could only suppress his grievance and walk out.

"Teacher, there's really nothing wrong. Just a small lump, really." Ye Hao's exposed six-pack wasn't much, just a patch on the lower left! If it were all exposed, wouldn't Xia Zhu know it's a six-pack?

But the other keen-eyed students, or those with some understanding of six-packs, knew clearly that it was Ye Hao's six-pack, but they were too lazy to explain for Xue Zhaolong, after all, this whole thing was created by Xue Zhaolong...

"How can you say it's nothing? You also need to go to the counselor's office, I'll apply some medicinal wine and reduce the swelling." After Xia Zhu finished speaking, she stomped over in her high heels to Ye Hao's seat to help him up.

Ye Hao blinked at Lin Ruyu, as if asking whether he should go or not.

Lin Ruyu glanced at him, looking disdainful, as if saying if you want to go, then go, why should I care?

"Alright then! I'll go." After Ye Hao said this, he leaned on Xia Zhu and let her support him to the counselor's office...

When Ye Hao arrived at the counselor's office, several teachers who knew him came over and laughed, "You're really a tough troublemaker to deal with! Are you causing trouble for Teacher Xia again?"

"Haha! Look at this guy, seems decent and all, who would've thought he's such a troublemaker. He was just at the counselor's office last week, and now he's back again..."

Ye Hao awkwardly lowered his head, sighing inwardly that this has nothing to do with him! He was just called over by Xia Zhu to apply ointment.

"Teachers, you've misunderstood, this student isn't a troublemaker. I called him here to give him some instructions," Xia Zhu said as she supported Ye Hao to her seat in the counselor's office.

This left the other teachers a bit confused. Not a troublemaker? But seeing how Xia Zhu supported Ye Hao, they understood maybe he really wasn't.

When Ye Hao reached Xia Zhu's desk, he saw Xue Zhaolong standing there like a stunned bird, giving him a mischievous look.

Xue Zhaolong glared back at Ye Hao, just as Xia Zhu caught it, and Xia Zhu sharply scolded, "Xue Zhaolong, you're incorrigible! Even at the counselor's office, you treat the classmate you bullied like this. Do you still acknowledge me as your teacher at all? Or do you think you can skip learning and get straight into college with your current grades?"

Xue Zhaolong was scolded so harshly by Xia Zhu he was left speechless, not daring to say anything further.

Xia Zhu then turned to Ye Hao, softly saying, "Ye Hao, take a seat first, and I'll apply some medicinal wine for you later."

Ye Hao nodded after hearing this, then sat in Xia Zhu's seat. He saw Xue Zhaolong's disgruntled glare but cheerfully said, "Zhaolong, come sit too!"

Xia Zhu was rummaging through her drawer, hearing Ye Hao's suggestion, she stood up and glared at Xue Zhaolong, saying, "Don't expect to sit down, soon I'll make you feel my wrath..."

After saying this, she continued to search her drawer while Ye Hao grinned mischievously.

Xue Zhaolong felt even more wronged, thinking damn it, Ye Hao is the one showing off, why am I the only one getting punished? Is there no love or sense?

After searching for a while, Xia Zhu finally found what she was looking for, then stood up and said to Xue Zhaolong, "When class ends at noon, write me a one-thousand-word reflection. During class, you don't need to listen, just copy down my lecture fifty times. If you can't do it, bring a parent over..."

Upon hearing this, Xue Zhaolong nearly lost his balance...

(Ps: During class, whoever is secretly looking at their phone, be careful the teacher doesn't confiscate it)
