CHAPTER 388: CHAPTER 381: THROWING ONE’S WEIGHT AROUND DUE TO SENIORITY

Sisi, not angered, unexpectedly burst into laughter and suddenly stood up, startling Ms. Peng who dodged aside, thinking that Sisi was going to get physical!

"Is it that a female teacher cannot speak with a male teacher? According to your logic, Ms. Peng, being a married teacher yourself, you should be even more reserved. Just now, I saw you chatting and laughing with Mr. Liu, doesn’t that mean there might be something more than just a simple collegial relationship between you and Mr. Liu?"

Hmph, you two dare to join forces against me, I will splash dirty water on both of you, whether your affair is real or fake, bite first and talk later!

Mr. Liu was so angry that he was trembling all over, his face turned pale with fright. In this day and age, being accused of having an affair is a very serious matter. In mild cases, one could be disciplined, and in severe cases, it could even lead to dismissal. He has been teaching for half his life and this is the first time he has been slandered to his face.

Sisi sneered: "So it’s acceptable for you to say that I lack self-respect, but unacceptable for me to say you have an affair?"

Ms. Peng was also very angry, but her psychological endurance was much stronger than Mr. Liu’s. She immediately regained her fighting strength and began to curse fiercely.

"He Sisi you little devil, I was just chatting with Mr. Liu just now, what nonsense are you spouting with such certainty?"

Sisi scoffed, "I was also just talking to Mr. Li just now, why did you, Ms. Peng, have to say that I was discussing romance with Mr. Li? Are you allowed to ’set fires’ as an old teacher and I’m not allowed to ’light a lamp’ as a new teacher?"

"Also, Ms. Peng, watch your language. What do you mean by ’little devil’? I am as dignified and proper as you, if I’m a little devil, then you are an old devil, no wonder at your age you still have little flings! Truly admirable!"

Sisi rattled off, leaving Ms. Peng stunned and without the chance to retort, turning her into an old devil associated with having an affair. Ms. Peng was so angry that she was gasping for breath, her breathing sounding like a bellows.

The other teachers all frowned, this new Mr. He was really too impolite, another teacher who liked to flaunt seniority, Teacher Du, spoke up to criticize Sisi.

"Mr. He, you are being too frivolous. You’ve only taught for two months and you are being so disrespectful to your seniors. Ah, the young people these days, they just don’t stack up to the past generations!"

Sisi raised her eyebrows, snorted, "Teacher Du, how am I being frivolous? Should I thank Ms. Peng for ruining my reputation? I am not the Buddha, if someone hits me on the left cheek, I’m not offering my right cheek to be hit. Do you, Teacher Du, enjoy debasing yourself?"

Having said these words one by one, seeing that everyone in the office was stunned, Sisi smiled with satisfaction and added, "Teacher Du, you better talk less to me, just to prevent our Ms. Peng from using you to ruin my reputation again."

Teacher Du’s face darkened, he grunted, and ultimately didn’t dare to criticize Sisi again, probably also feeling wary of Sisi’s recent words.

"He Sisi, how dare you speak to me like that? I’ll kill you, you little devil."

Furious, Ms. Peng’s head overheated and she immediately transformed her rage into energy, lunging towards Sisi.

She was extremely incensed, suddenly being slandered by Sisi as having an affair, how could she tolerate that? Although she liked to spread rumors about other people’s affairs, she herself was a comrade of upright conduct!

The teachers in the office were all startled, how did it turn into a physical confrontation? How could this be so uncivilized?

Seeing Ms. Peng nearly reaching her, Sisi cleverly twisted her body, and Ms. Peng ended up slamming into the office desk behind Sisi.

"Bang"

A deafening crash, Ms. Peng, unable to stop in time, slammed right into the solid wood desk, seeing stars as she fell to the ground crying out in pain, while Sisi’s desk contents also scattered all over the floor.

"Ouch, Ms. Peng, what were you thinking? Tsk tsk, you even deformed my desk. I didn’t realize your bones were so tough."

Sisi said with a smile, infuriating Ms. Peng on the floor even more, unable to catch her breath, feeling a burning pain in her side, tears coming to her eyes.

Sisi picked up the books and art supplies from the floor, then provoked further: "Ms. Peng, we’re all civilized people, it’s better not to do uncivilized things. Let’s let it slide this time, but next time I hear something unpleasant, don’t blame me, He Sisi, for not being nice."

At this point, Sisi intentionally let out some aura, instantly making the temperature in the office seem to drop several degrees, even the angry Mr. Liu couldn’t help but shiver, and everyone’s gaze towards Sisi instantly changed, filled with awe.

Sisi contentedly hooked her lips upward, not bad, being fierce has its perks, if annoyed just release some killer vibe to scare people.

The bell rang for class, and Sisi gracefully walked towards the classroom with her art supplies, after Sisi left, everyone finally felt the temperature rise again, feeling more comfortable.

The other female teachers helped Ms. Peng to a seat, asking her with concern if she was alright?

"It’s nothing, just need some liniment when I get home." Ms. Peng shook her head, not daring to lift her clothes to check the bruise on her side, suspecting it was certainly bruised.

"What kind of background does this Mr. He have? Why so arrogant? Didn’t put us, the seniors, in his eyes at all." Teacher Ma, also a middle-aged woman, commented.

Teacher Du shook his head, "I’m not sure, just know that she’s a brilliant student from Tsinghua University, came to our school voluntarily to teach, seems to be a local, never seen her live in the staff dormitory."

"Tsinghua University, so what? She’s just an art teacher, an expendable course."

Ms. Peng bitterly said, she had never been humiliated like this, He Sisi made her lose face in front of everyone, she and He Sisi were now at odds to death.

The other teachers didn’t interject, maintaining a neutral stance, after all, they didn’t have major issues with Mr. He.

While they didn’t like Mr. He either, there was no conflict of interest, after all, He Sisi was just an art teacher, what kind of conflict of interest could she have with any teacher?

The next day, the story of Sisi’s confrontation with Ms. Peng spread throughout the school, and now the whole school knew that the new teacher He Sisi was a fiery character, a real hot pepper!

Although the rumors were annoying, there were benefits too, at least those so-called seniors who liked to throw their weight around no longer dared to trouble Sisi, becoming much more polite.

So, people are bullies but cowards at heart, they dodge when they see a sharp knife, but trample over grass, and He Sisi was certainly not a blade of grass to be trampled on!

She came to this school to live a comfortable life, and anyone who made her uncomfortable, she would definitely make them even more uncomfortable!
