Seeing Qian Xiaoyue’s reaction, the socialite knew that Qian Xiaoyue had likely splashed water on Xia Qingyu.
The other members of the "Thousand Gold Sisters" team either lowered their heads in silence or frantically signaled to their parents.
These surveillance cameras absolutely could not be checked, or they would be the ones losing face in the end.
"Of course... we can't check the surveillance for such a small matter and trouble the school. After all... after all, it's parent-teacher meeting time," the socialite changed the subject. "We'll talk about this later."
"How can that be?" Xia Qingtian would never let her gloss over it. "The main purpose of the parent-teacher meeting is to solve problems with students. Otherwise, why are we all gathered here? To do business and network? That would be too shameless! Exploiting our own children?"
Xia Qingtian's words caused many parents to lower their heads, their expressions subtly complicated.
"Teacher Jiang, I think Mrs. Qian's suggestion to investigate thoroughly is very necessary," Xia Qingtian glanced at someone who had just agreed, saying, "Some people will do anything to steal the spotlight... right?"
The person who had agreed immediately flushed and turned pale, their gaze awkward.
After all, she was also a parent of a member of the "Thousand Gold Sisters group," and her family's business was related to the Qian family. Because of their children, their seven families were quite close.
Today, she had intended to show off a bit to facilitate business cooperation for the next quarter. She never expected Xia Qingtian to be such a difficult obstacle.
"Don't we need to protect students' privacy?" Mrs. Qian saw Qian Xiaoyue's increasingly displeased expression and knew that Qian Xiaoyue had done more than just this one bad deed.
While defending Qian Xiaoyue, Mrs. Qian secretly cursed her for being stupid.
Why leave any evidence when doing bad things?
It should be done without anyone knowing, or a scapegoat should be found before acting!
"While school privacy is important, harboring such a 'rotten apple' is tantamount to turning a rigorous institution like City First High School into a breeding ground for evil, exposing other students to such danger is absolutely unacceptable." Xia Qingtian was unyielding, even quoting the words the socialites had used earlier to retort at them.
This caused the faces of those socialites to become increasingly ugly.
"We will investigate this matter thoroughly. Please rest assured, parents," Teacher Jiang nodded solemnly and said, "We will definitely provide an explanation."
"I'm reassured by Teacher Jiang's words. However, it would be best to officially release the investigation results. Those who bullied should write formal apology letters, as this will serve as a warning," Xia Qingtian said with a smile, glancing at Mrs. Qian.
This Mrs. Qian was both stupid and wicked, no wonder she was easily manipulated by her brother, which eventually led to the Qian Corporation's capital chain breaking and difficulties in operation. Her brother then absconded with the money, and Mrs. Qian became the sinner, expelled from the Qian family. Not long after, the Qian General's mistress, along with her son, took over. Qian Xiaoyue soon became rebellious, frequented places like nightclubs, and was even arrested for drug use, dominating the headlines. In less than a year, the Qian Corporation completely collapsed. The mistress then absconded with a lot of jewelry and cash, and the Qian family thus completely disappeared from City Z. Only the scandals of the Qian Corporation became various popular memes, circulated for a very long time. That's why Xia Qingtian knew about the Qian family's dirty scandals. At the time, she felt it was quite regrettable, but now it seemed the Qian family deserved their fate. She didn't want to stubbornly create enemies for Xia Qingyu, but she absolutely couldn't let those little brats bully Xia Qingyu anymore.
Afterward, the students were urged by Teacher Jiang to leave the classroom.
As soon as they left the classroom, someone came up and asked, "Xia Qingyu, your sister is actually Xia Qingtian! Why haven't you ever mentioned it?"
"There's nothing worth mentioning," Xia Qingyu didn't want to talk about Xia Qingtian with these outsiders. That was her sister.
"Your dress is really beautiful. Where did you buy it?" someone asked curiously.
"I don't know, it's my sister..." Xia Qingyu's words were interrupted before she could finish.
"The style of this dress is the latest from K&S, designed by Madame Camille. Right now, let alone in China, even abroad, only internal staff and K&S VIP members can buy it. Xia Qingyu, I'm not trying to criticize you, but if you can't afford the genuine article, you don't have to wear it. Wearing a fake, what's the point?" A member of the "Thousand Gold Sisters group" came to cause trouble again.
"This material and style don't look like fakes at all. Xia Qingtian is the spokesperson for K&S, so it's not difficult for her to get a dress," someone couldn't help but say. "I'm actually very envious of Xia Qingyu. Your sisterly relationship is so good!"
Hearing this, Xia Qingyu curled her lips into a happy smile. "Yes, my sister is very good to me." If only she could be good to her alone, that would be even more perfect.
"Xia Qingyu, stop being so arrogant! I think your sister is just as selfish as you are! Your sister knew Dr. Li and his wife a long time ago and kept it hidden! How can there be such selfish sisters in the world?" Qian Xiaoyue had been threatened by Xia Qingtian and had been verbally attacked and squeezed by Xia Qingtian in the classroom. She was now full of anger. Seeing everyone gathered around Xia Qingyu as if they had never seen the world outside the classroom made her even more unhappy. That little bitch, why! Xia Qingyu usually tolerated Qian Xiaoyue's targeting her, but today Qian Xiaoyue had belittled her mother and slandered Xia Qingtian, so Xia Qingyu wouldn't tolerate it anymore.
"What right do you have to call others selfish? In the end, you're just angry that you didn't get any benefits! My sister is a hundred times more upright than you, and people like you don't deserve to mention her!" Xia Qingyu warned coldly. "Qian Xiaoyue, I'm not arguing with you because I'm afraid of you, but because I disdain to be like you people." "You're angry because you didn't show favor to Li Xiaozhong before and missed the opportunity to climb the social ladder. That's because your own heart is malicious and you look down on people. Don't treat me like you."
"Indeed." Li Xiaozhong and Shi Xingwu, returning from a walk, saw this scene and stepped forward. "For those who speak of me behind my back as 'gloomy and terrifying,' who make me feel 'disgusted' with just a glance, and who are full of 'stench of poverty,' no matter how much they try to show favor, I will only feel hypocritical and disgusting."
Hearing Li Xiaozhong's words, everyone's expressions became somewhat subtle. They had all spoken less than flattering words about Li Xiaozhong at some point.
"Besides, my sister and Xia Qingyu's sister are best friends, and we became acquainted through our sisters' close relationship. Before that, Xia Qingyu never knew about my family situation, nor did she curry favor with me based on who my parents were. Everything is just your own delusion because you refuse to admit you misjudged," Li Xiaozhong said coldly.
