Chapter 134 Shocking news! A certain student was expelled from Songhai Academy! (1)
Wen Yantong always wondered what had kept Chi Jingxi so busy these three days.
While still lost in thought, Chi Jingxi slowly moved away from the crowd and walked over. His eyes were still dark and deep, but it seemed that there was exhaustion hidden in them, he lacked his usual energy.
Wen Yantong unconsciously scratched the mud between her fingers. Completely disregarding the rest of the people at the scene, her eyes kept staring at Chi Jingxi uncontrollably.
Sun Qiu, Li Boyuan and others also arrived. They were already made aware of the situation before they arrived, their faces looked very gloomy.
Stealing was the act of a thief. As a well-known academy handed down throughout the country, Songhai Academy absolutely did not tolerate such behavior from their students. Not to mention that stealing was against the law, if this news was spread out, it was enough for the world to laugh at for a while.
Furthermore, it was one of Little Marquis' items that was stolen.
Wu Yutian knew the seriousness of this matter, so once all of the Teachers were present, he immediately wanted to condemn Wen Yantong. He was ready to push her down a well, never allowing her to see another good day.
Wu Yutian quickly walked up to Wen Yantong, glared at her, and said, "Wen Yantong! Now that the Teachers are all here, your misdeed has been exposed! Why don't you dig that item up and admit your mistakes."
Wen Yantong's gaze moved away from Chi Jingxi's body. When it fell on Wu Yutian, her eyes looked frosty cold, and there was an uncomfortable silence in the air as their gazes contested for a while.
Wen Yantong should have feigned panic and pretended to be scared, but she currently wasn’t in the mood and couldn’t muster up the energy to fake a reaction. So she answered in an indifferent voice, "I just buried a small plaything. I didn't violate the Academy's regulations, is it necessary to mobilize so many teachers like this?"
Unexpectedly, Wu Yutian was already convinced of her wrongdoing. He just thought she was pretending to be calm after her incident was exposed, so Wu Yutian became more confident. He pointed to the uplifted earth on the ground and interrogated, "Are you clear of what you buried in there?"
Wen Yantong stood up slowly and replied, "A box."
The surrounding people continued to watch the spectacle. Li Boyuan wanted to go up to participate, but Sun Qiu stopped him and shook his head silently.
Wu Yutian sneered, "What's in the box?"
Wen Yantong looked at him, was about to speak, but heard a loud voice, "Who dares to bully our Little Cripple!"
Everyone turned their heads to look, and saw Mu Yang quickly making his way over. He suddenly jumped in front of Wen Yantong, raised his hand, and pushed Wu Yutian. "Why is it you again?!"
Whether it was Mu Yang's great strength or Wu Yutian's weak body, either way, this push caused the latter to fall to the ground.
Fu Zixian had followed Mu Yang over. He was running in a hurry, so when he stopped, he kept panting, trying to catch his breath. He pulled Mu Yang's sleeve and advised in a low voice, "The Teachers are present, don't be impulsive."
Mu Yang straightened his back. "This surnamed Wu guy is always spreading false rumors, he deserves a beating!"
Wu Yutian hollered back, "I didn't spread baseless rumors! It's true! Wen Yantong stole something from the Little Marquis, hid it in a box, and said he was going to sell it. I heard him say it with my own ears!"
Mu Yang retorted angrily, "Then tell me what he stole?"
Wu Yutian said, "It's the Little Marquis’ jade token!"
After hearing this, Mu Yang was stunned, turned his head to look at Chi Jingxi, and muttered, "Brother Xi's jade token is indeed lost..."
Immediately there were buzzing discussions around, with many criticisms against Wen Yantong.
"It's been lost for a while, it's impossible for Wen Yantong to pick it up." Mu Yang stated.
Wu Yutian saw that there was still an opportunity, so he hurriedly shouted, "Wen Yantong must have stolen it! Young Master Mu, don't be fooled by him!"
Mu Yang rolled up his sleeves, as if ready to beat him up.
"Yang'er." Chi Jingxi suddenly called out.
Mu Yang turned his head and responded, "Brother Xi, Wen Yantong won't steal from you, he's not that kind of person..."
Chi Jingxi's eyes were profound, but his expression was still calm as he said, "Come here first, don't be a hindrance."
The surroundings suddenly quieted down. Although he stood by the side like a bystander and did not participate, Chi Jingxi was the main ‘character’ in this matter.
When he said ‘don't be a hindrance,’ everyone thought that this was Chi Jingxi trying to embarrass Wen Yantong. But Wen Yantong's heart skipped a beat after hearing this sentence.
His words were too ambiguous. She didn't know whether Chi Jingxi was referring to hindering Wu Yutian's interrogation of her, or hindering this scheme that she had designed.
If it were the latter, wouldn't it mean that he already knew what she did?
How much does he know? Did he also know that the jade token was really in her hand?
Wen Yantong suddenly felt timid, and she didn't dare to look at Chi Jingxi again.
Mu Yang felt tangled, he looked at Chi Jingxi, then at Wen Yantong. In the end, he took two steps to the side. He believed that Wen Yantong did not steal anything, and he also believed that Chi Jingxi must have his own judgment.
His retreat was misunderstood by Wu Yutian. Thinking that he was supported, and his arrogance became more and more vigorous. Not minding his clothes stained full of mud, he jumped up and shouted, "Wen Yantong, there are many people watching! You should give up struggling as soon as possible. Tell the truth, the Teachers are people who can distinguish right from wrong, so don't even think about trying to muddle out of this one!"
Wen Yantong said, "I already said it. This is just a box, stop trying to distort the truth."
Wu Yutian didn't believe it, so he rushed up and started to dig the soil. Wen Yantong saw the opportunity and moved her foot, trampling Wu Yutian's hand with the soil.
Without holding back any strength, Wu Yutian’s hand sunk into the soil and he immediately screamed, "My hand! My hand!"
Wen Yantong put more force on her foot, and stated in disgust, "You are really annoying, why make such a big deal when others choose to bury something into the ground."
Wu Yutian yelled, "You have a guilty conscience! If you are capable, show everyone what you have buried!"
Before Wen Yantong could speak, she heard Chi Jingxi's voice, "Teacher, please enlighten this student. How should we deal with people who make trouble out of nothing and frame their classmates?"
Li Boyuan had always favored Chi Jingxi, so when he heard him ask this question, he spoke before Sun Qiu could. "Such students ruin the atmosphere of the Academy and endanger the budding friendship of classmates. They are unworthy of studying at Songhai Academy and would be expelled from the Academy, reported to His Majesty, and severely punished!"
