CHAPTER 511: CHAPTER 510: RUMORS ABOUND

"Zhen Yu student! Gu Qing student! Please come to the school’s guidance office immediately after hearing the broadcast! Zhen Yu student! Gu Qing student! After hearing the broadcast..."

The announcement was broadcasted three times in a row; after a minute passed, it was broadcasted three more times! All teachers and students throughout the school heard it loud and clear! Naturally, this also included the three people on their way to the school infirmary.

Once they stepped out of the classroom building, Han Mingyue realized that Zhen Yu was dressed rather thinly, so he quickly took off his down jacket and wrapped her in it. Upon hearing the broadcast, Han Mingyue put his arms around Zhen Yu’s shoulders and said directly: "It’s okay! I’ll go with you in a little bit!"

Zhen Yan also said, "Yeah! I’ll go with you too! It’s just a fight, what’s the big deal!"

Zhen Yu readily accepted the care and protection from these two without any refusal.

Because there might be a lot to explain later, and she wasn’t sure she could make it clear!

She had seen the guilt in Zhen Yan’s eyes just now, and she heard Gu Qing’s words "hide away" clearly.

Since it wasn’t her who had hidden her mother away! Then it must have been Zhen Yan... So it was necessary and made sense to let him come along!

After all, Mrs. Zhen wasn’t just her mother alone!

So, after bandaging her hand, the three of them went together to Director Luan’s office.

As soon as the plump Director Luan saw only Zhen Yu had come, he asked, "Where’s Gu Qing? Did you see her?!"

"She probably ran back home," Zhen Yu answered nonchalantly.

Since the other party involved was not present, they could only discuss Zhen Yu’s side of the story for now.

Director Luan, frustrated and upset, extended a thick, short finger, tapping on the desk and said: "You tell me! Zhen Yu! What exactly happened with you?!"

"I’m not too clear, let Zhen Yan explain!" Zhen Yu directly tossed the blame to her brother!

Zhen Yan sighed inwardly, seeing that his sister had figured it all out!

So, he had no choice but to obediently start talking, describing everything about Mrs. Zhen and Gu’s father from the day the hospital called him to the present.

But he omitted the child’s hydrocephalus, as it wasn’t much related to today’s issues.

"So! Your mother and stepfather are getting divorced, and Zhen Yan, you blocked your stepfather from seeing your mother, is my summary correct?!"

"My mom is sick right now! Plus, she’s indecisive..." Zhen Yan defended himself a bit.

"This isn’t an excuse for bringing such trouble to school! Do you understand?!" Director Luan slammed the desk and shouted angrily a couple of times, and Zhen Yan immediately became docile.

Then, Director Luan’s tone suddenly softened quite a bit as he asked Zhen Yu, "You didn’t know anything about this, right?!"

"Yeah." Zhen Yu nodded and added, "Now I know."

"But it’s too late for you to know now!" Director Luan roared again suddenly, "Gu Qing went into the broadcast room and yelled like that! How do all the teachers and students in the school regard you now?! Postpartum depression and she’s calling it madness! Have you ever thought about how people in the school will think of you and regard you?!"

Zhen Yu remained silent, and both Zhen Yan and Han Mingyue’s faces turned an ashen hue.

Yet Director Luan suddenly pointed at Zhen Yan and scolded, "It’s all on you! Zhen Yan! You started all this trouble! Now go and bring your mother here, straight to the school!"

"Understood! I’m on it!" Zhen Yan quickly complied and immediately turned to leave the guidance office.

With Zhen Yan gone, Director Luan then turned to Zhen Yu, "You know where Gu Qing lives, right?"

"I do," Han Mingyue answered quickly!

"Good! Han Mingyue, you make a trip! Tell them that the school asked you to pass the message, let Gu Qing and her father come to school before afternoon classes start! If they don’t come, Gu Qing will be given a significant demerit!"

Han Mingyue immediately agreed! "Okay, Director Luan, I’ll go right after school at noon!"

"Alright! You and Zhen Yu go back to the classroom for class! We’ll talk about this matter when everyone is here this afternoon!"

"Yes!"

"Okay, Director Luan."

——

But within the last two periods of the morning, the news that ’Zhen Yu’s mom might be mentally ill’ raced around the campus like it had legs! All the teachers and students were discussing it openly and in whispers.

The students in class one, out of consideration that Zhen Yu was sitting in the classroom and after hearing she had beaten Gu Qing out of shape, none dared to spout nonsense to her face and only whispered behind her back.

However, the students from other classes were not afraid, after all, Zhen Yu couldn’t hear them! Thus, nearly all the students from other classes were openly discussing the authenticity of this rumor in their classrooms.

——

Every class has its annoying characters, and class two and class ten were no exceptions.

During the break of the third period, a boy from class two leaned on his desk, snickering, "Hey, what do you think! Zhen Yu’s grades are so inconsistent, could it be because she’s crazy? Having fits unpredictably?"

"Ha ha... that’s quite a fresh take! Is mental illness like that?!" A girl across the aisle casually joined in the conversation with him.

But before her words even finished, a loud "bang!" came from not far behind her!

"Watch your words!" Han Mingyue’s voice was cold, and her gaze towards the person was like that of a ferocious beast!

The girl immediately lowered her head!

But the boy raised his right hand and rubbed his nose with his index finger! How could he show weakness in front of so many classmates?! "I can say whatever I want with my own mouth! What business is it of yours?!"

Han Mingyue ’swooshed’ to her feet! Staring down the boy, she barked, "You dare badmouth Zhen Yu, let’s see you try!"

"The hell what if I just did?!" The boy clamored defiantly, "What the hell’s your relationship with that nutcase Zhen Yu?! Why you taking her side, huh?!"

Han Mingyue raised a fist and swung it straight into the boy’s face! How could the boy not fight back?!

And then, in an instant, the two were grappling with each other, amidst flying books and overturned desks and chairs!

Leaving all the other students staring in dumbfounded shock.

The class monitor of class two was a girl, who, regaining her composure, screamed and directed the boys in the classroom, "Quick, quick, quick! Hurry up and break it up! Break it up, you guys!"

While the scene in class ten’s classroom wasn’t any better at the moment! Only, instead of Lu Huai, it was Bai Xue who made the move.

"Ah! You dare pull my hair!" A girl screamed, clutching Bai Xue’s clothes, trying to pull back!

Bai Xue gave a hard yank and actually pulled off a lock of the other girl’s hair!

"Ah! Bai Xue! You #%..."

Without a word, Bai Xue grabbed another handful of hair and then said, "Serves you right! If you dare say another bad word about Xiao Yu, believe it or not, I’ll make you go bald!"

"Ah! Bai Xue let go of me! I swear I won’t leave it at this!"

"Then don’t leave it! Keep mouthing off and see if I don’t slap you with a good one!"

"What are you doing! Let go at once!" The class headteacher of class ten suddenly arrived in the classroom.
