"Student Ma Yi, I'll talk to the school about this. Since you framed a classmate for plagiarism, you'll have to retake the course next semester."
After saying that, the teacher chased after Shi Wan in the direction she left, his eyes faintly filled with excitement and anticipation.
"Student Shi Wan!"
"Teacher." When Shi Wan saw it was him, she already had a general idea of what it was about.
"I'm sorry about what just happened. I misunderstood you."
"It's your duty. I just hope there won't be similar things in the future. I hope the teacher can figure things out before speaking."
Teacher Gao nodded. "There's another thing. Are you a member of the Hacker Alliance?"
"I've watched your competition. It seems that everything you did was by coincidence, but you managed to control the time very precisely. You weren't unable to break through that firewall. You just didn't want to, right?"
Before Shi Wan could say anything, he quickly added,
"Just a coincidence."
Shi Wan half - lowered her beautiful eyes, her hands in her pockets, and her lazy stance exuded an air of nonchalance.
"Actually, I've always admired the Hacker Alliance, but my skills aren't good enough. I really want to find my wife."
"Oh."
Teacher Gao: "..."
"Student Shi Wan..."
"Wanwan!" Zheng Zhi also chased out. After what had just happened, she was still a bit on guard against Teacher Gao.
"Teacher Gao."
"In that case, I'll leave first."
"Wanwan, what did Teacher Gao want with you?"
Zheng Zhi only started to ask after seeing Teacher Gao leave.
"I don't know."
"Originally, I was sad that he wouldn't teach us next semester. Now, I just can't wait for him to leave."
"What's wrong? Do you hate him so much?"
If she wasn't mistaken, there was obvious sadness and hatred in Zheng Zhi's eyes when she said this.
"I... I just hate this kind of teacher." Seemingly recalling something sad, tears gradually welled up in Zheng Zhi's eyes. "I had a conflict with a classmate before. I was so naive that I went to the homeroom teacher. At first, the homeroom teacher told the classmate to apologize to me after hearing my story. But that person refused and said arrogantly, 'Why do I only pick on her and not others?' Then the homeroom teacher just kept silent and even asked me to apologize."
At that time, she was soft - tempered and too clumsy to refute.
The look in the homeroom teacher's eyes at that time still made her wake up in the middle of the night even now.
Shi Wan patted her on the back. "It wasn't your fault."
This conflict was probably more than just a simple one.
"They advised me to let it go and not to care, but why should I? It wasn't them who went through it. How could they so casually tell me to let it go?"
So when she saw the look in Teacher Gao's eyes when he looked at Shi Wan, for a moment, it was as if she had returned to the high - school office that night.
"What do you think of college?" Shi Wan bent down to wipe away her tears. "Do you want a hug from your sister?"
Zheng Zhi burst out laughing and choked back sobs. "Wanwan is great, but you're not allowed to be my sister. I'm older than you."
She chuckled. "Then take your sister out to eat?"
"Okay."
...
Early the next morning, she heard that Ma Yi from Class 3 next door had dropped out of school.
"Shi Wan, could you come out for a moment?"
Shi Wan, who was in class, never expected Ma Yi to come looking for her.
"I have something to tell you about what happened yesterday."
Shi Wan didn't even lift her head. All the classmates in the class knew what had happened yesterday, and no one paid any attention to Ma Yi at the moment.
What she didn't expect was that Ma Yi was still waiting outside even after school.
"Speak."
Shi Wan leaned lazily against the wall.
"Shi Qing asked me to do this. I just wanted to save my mother in the hospital."
As a classmate, she had thought about asking Shi Wan for help, but she had inquired and found out that Shi Wan charged a high fee, and her family had no more money.
Just then, Shi Qing found her and said that as long as she helped her with this, she would treat her mother for free.
"What does it matter to me?" Shi Wan's tone was tinged with impatience. "You have to bear the consequences of what you've done."
Hearing this, Ma Yi burst into tears. "I know. I came just to tell you that Shi Qing will continue to post things about you on the Internet to frame you. And, I'm sorry."
"I'll leave now. I'm really sorry."
"Wait." Shi Wan called out to her and stuffed a pill into her hand. "Take this back for your mother."
"You..."
Ma Yi looked up in surprise, but only saw the girl's back as she walked away.
"Shi Wan, thank you!"
There were no classes in the afternoon, so Shi Wan went to Bai Yun's law firm.
The matter of Liu Yicheng had been resolved, and he had gone back to his hometown with his aunt.
Bai Yun looked at the girl sitting leisurely in her office chair. "Why do you still go to school and waste your time? Is it really necessary?"
"Yes. I can learn a lot in school and also make money."
Bai Yun was annoyed by her carefree attitude. "Make money? Can't you make more outside than in school?"
"It's different. It's easier to make money in school." She said lazily, "For example, I just made ten thousand yuan by typing on the keyboard."
Bai Yun: "..."
As far as she knew, this girl just took the money and didn't want the award.
"In that case, let's go out."
Shi Wan: "Why?"
"Let you treat me!"
"Sure. Wait a minute for me."
She smiled, picked up the computer, typed for a minute, then stood up. "Let's go. I'll treat you."
"What did you do on my computer just now?"
"Nothing. I just checked the time. After all, I'm a married woman. I have to go home and take care of my man."
"... Good - for - nothing."
"You're so capable, but I don't see you accepting someone?"
"Shi Wan!" Bai Yun blushed. "You're really... What's so good about Shen Siyan? It's only been a short time, and you're already protecting him like this?"
"The gap between you two will only get bigger. To be honest, you're not suitable."
She didn't mean to look down on Shen Siyan. It was just that the gap in their social status was too big. Moreover, he had no special skills and would only be a burden to her.
"Not suitable?" Shi Wan rubbed her fingertips and chuckled. "You're right. I think he's prettier than me. This is indeed a problem. But it doesn't matter. If he's more good - looking than me, I'll just work hard to make him mine."
"You're bewitched!"
As they were talking, they had already arrived at the parking lot. Bai Yun walked around to the driver's seat and got in the car.
The two of them went to "Those Years" barbecue restaurant. Just as they sat down and got their food, Shen Siyan came in carrying take - out.
"Shen Siyan!"
Bai Yun followed Shi Wan's gaze and saw Shen Siyan deliver the take - out to a customer and then walk towards them.
"Baby, Miss Bai."
"Have you eaten? Join us?"
"Okay."
Shen Siyan sat down beside Shi Wan. The obvious doting was in his eyes as he looked at her.
"Mr. Shen, are you done with your work?"
"Work isn't urgent. Accompanying my wife is the most important thing."
As the man spoke, he had already placed the dishes Shi Wan liked in front of her and started to barbecue.
On the other side, the person who had just received the take - out left the barbecue restaurant and came to a corner.
He said dejectedly, "Brother Fengtong, what should we do with this take - out?"
