Chapter 29

The Dropout

When Ye Lengan was still lost in thought, a student ran over and asked her to go to the princ.i.p.als office, saying that the princ.i.p.al wanted to talk to her.

Ye Lengan raised her eyebrows. Was the princ.i.p.al a psychic? But when she arrived at the princ.i.p.als office and saw the people inside, she cast this thought aside.

She greeted Ye Li and Lin Wanqin sitting in the princ.i.p.als office with a nod and smile, h.e.l.lo, Uncle Ye and Auntie Lin.

Both Ye Li and Lin Wanqin froze when they heard what Ye Lengan called them. They were probably used to hearing Ye Lengan address them as mom and dad. They somewhat felt a little uncomfortable with the sudden change.

After the greeting, Ye Lengan glanced at the princ.i.p.al of Shengan High School, Zheng Anyang. Princ.i.p.al Zheng, what is it you want to see me about?

Although she had no idea about what was going on, she knew that this wasnt a good thing when she saw Ye Li and Lin Wanqin here. Apparently, Ye Xiyuan had done something behind the scenes to make Ye Li and Lin Wanqin come to the school directly. Ye Lengan hoped that they wouldnt say they missed her since even a fool wouldnt believe that.

Zheng Anyang looked at Ye Lengan without changing his facial expression. He simply repeated the fact, Mr. and Mrs. Ye came here today to make you quit school. Youre the student, so I think I should ask your opinion.

He of course had heard about what was between Ye Lengan and Ye Xiyuan, but he didnt care about it too much. There were too many rich kids in Shengan High School. Whether she left or stayed, it didnt make any difference. Moreover, the Ye family could only be considered a middle-cla.s.s wealthy family in the capital.

Oh, really? Ye Lengan wasnt angry when hearing this. She just shook her head with a smile. Princ.i.p.al, as you said, Im the one whos involved. Then Ill tell you my thoughts now! I have no intention of dropping out. Moreover, I dont think they have the right to make me leave school and handle the dropout procedures for me.

Good, I understand. There was amus.e.m.e.nt in Zheng Anyangs eyes when he saw Ye Lengan remain so calm. He turned to Ye Li and Lin Wanqin. Mr. and Mrs. Ye, you heard that. Since Ye Lengan doesnt want to quit school, we cant force her to do so.

In the past, he hadnt paid much attention to Ye Lengan. It was only recently that he had heard a lot about her and Ye Xiyuan. Today they finally met, but to his surprise, Ye Lengan wasnt as willful and arrogant as in those rumors!

Ye Li didnt expect that his request would be rejected. He suppressed his anger and said, Princ.i.p.al Zheng, I believe you knew that Lengan and Xiyuan were swapped when they were little. And we sent Lengan to this school. Now, the two of them have returned to their respective places. After that, we cant continue to pay Lengans tuition fees. But since weve been together for many years, weve already found another school for her. We are here to help her with the dropout procedures today so that she can go to the new school earlier and adapt to the new environment.

What a high-sounding excuse! It sounded as if they really did so for Ye Lengans sake.

Ye Lengan just sneered when hearing that. You dont have to worry about whether I can afford the tuition fees in the future or not. Anyway, I will not drop out of school today. However, I still have to thank you for your kindness.

Lengan, why did you insist on staying? Lin Wanqin frowned. It wont do you any good if you continue to stay in Shengan High School. We are doing this for your own good. You should go to a new school as soon as possible and start a new life.

I know that you want me to leave because of Ye Xiyuan. Ye Lengan shrugged her shoulders and told the truth. So theres no need for you to say its for my own good.

If you stay here, you and Xiyuan will meet every day. Wont you have any bad thoughts? Ye Li looked at Ye Lengan, his expression cold and stern. Besides, youll have to leave sooner or later. Instead of doing this, why dont you start a new life as soon as possible?

Uncle Ye, you dont have to worry about my business, Ye Lengan said firmly. I have no intention of leaving Shengan High School. As for my tuition fees in the future, you two dont have to worry about it.

You Ye Li was really angry that Ye Lengan couldnt tell the difference between good and bad. Ye Lengan, you have to leave now. Im the one who paid your tuition fees, so I have the right to make you leave.

Oh, do you mean that as long as I return the tuition fees to you, I can make my own decision? Ye Lengan nodded. If thats the case, then give me your bank account number. Ill return the tuition fees to you now.

She did not expect Ye Li to say such words. It seemed that he was really furious.

Ye Li was boiling with rage after hearing that. He wanted to say something, but Lin Wanqin tugged at his sleeve and stopped him. This also allowed him to temporarily regain his reason and slowly calm down.
