Chapter 342: 342: Expelled from School


Chapter 342: Chapter 342: Expelled from School


The next morning.


After returning to school, An Mi was scrutinized by Chen Jin, who looked her up and down.


“Jinjin, what are you doing?” An Mi asked.


Chen Jin straightened her up and said, “Checking to see if you’re hurt.”


She had been anxious all night after she and Wu Xiaomin were taken away by the police yesterday.


Though An Mi later told them in the group chat that she was fine, she was still worried.


An Mi gave a resigned smile: “Don’t worry, I’m not hurt. Wu Xiaomin didn’t touch me.”


Chen Jin asked, “Then why were you taken away by the police yesterday?”


An Mi had not mentioned this in the group chat last night.


Moreover, the incident of the two being taken away had spread throughout the school.


Additionally, the school’s official website had been littered with chaotic articles.


However, before she had the chance to read them closely, all the articles had disappeared.


An Mi calmly explained the entire incident from beginning to end.


“…”


After listening, Chen Jin gave her a thumbs up.


“Impressive, that counterattack was great. You really stunned Wu Xiaomin,” Chen Jin said. “From now on, she’ll probably avoid you.”


To An Mi, that wasn’t important. She just wanted to teach Wu Xiaomin a lesson.


Otherwise, Wu Xiaomin would keep causing her trouble.


She really didn’t want to waste her time on such people.


“By the way, Mimi, about those articles on the school’s official website when you were taken away…”


“Yeah, I know about that. Wu Xiaomin had someone do that,” An Mi said, interrupting her.


Chen Jin: “This woman really meddles too much, she’s seriously sick in the head! Suddenly, I find that she and Ye Xuan really are a match made in heaven, truly birds of a feather!”


An Mi agreed with this point.


“…”


The event of An Mi and Wu Xiaomin being taken away by the police had spread in the school, but the school had not made any announcement or explanation.


The next day, An Mi reappeared at school, but Wu Xiaomin was absent until a week after they were taken away.


However, when she did appear, it wasn’t to return to school, but to withdraw.


That day, An Mi just happened to be leaving the Academic Affairs Office and crossed paths with her.


An Mi simply looked at her indifferently and walked past her.


But the next second, Wu Xiaomin stopped her: “An Mi!”


An Mi had to stop and turn to look at her, “Is there something you need?”


Wu Xiaomin stared at her with dark eyes, saying, “Are you happy now?”


The unwillingness and hatred in her eyes were undisguised.


An Mi chose to ignore it and spoke in an even tone, “Wu Xiaomin, you brought this on yourself. What does it have to do with me?”


Wu Xiaomin clenched her teeth: “If it weren’t for you, would this have happened to me?”


An Mi: “…”


This ability to blame others was truly speechless!


An Mi chose to remain silent, not wanting to argue with her.


There was no reasoning with such people.


“An Mi, I’ve been expelled from school. Are you satisfied now?”


Wu Xiaomin looked at her as if she wished she could tear An Mi to pieces. If her family hadn’t warned her against causing more conflicts with An Mi, she would have struck An Mi already.


Hearing this, An Mi was slightly stunned.


She was persuaded to leave by the school?


This was news to her.


But she was only stunned for a few seconds. Whether Wu Xiaomin was withdrawing or not had nothing to do with her.


An Mi “Oh” and then casually said: “It’s not about being satisfied or not, after all, my purpose wasn’t to make you drop out.”


Wu Xiaomin was so angry that her chest heaved continuously: “You…”


An Mi even deliberately took a few steps forward, then continued: “Wu Xiaomin, don’t think the world revolves around you, nor will your path always be smooth. The wrongs you’ve done will naturally come back to haunt you one day. In fact, if you hadn’t started trouble with me initially, you wouldn’t be in this situation now; after all, I’m someone who typically doesn’t look for trouble. I won’t offend anyone unless they offend me.”


An Mi’s voice was very gentle, but the words she spoke angered Wu Xiaomin beyond belief.


After she finished speaking, An Mi took a few steps back.


“You… you’re just heartless!” Wu Xiaomin, red-faced and neck thick with anger, exclaimed: “I will let Ye Xuan know your true colors. You are not worthy of his affection!”


An Mi looked unimpressed and said, “I don’t care for his affections. Wu Xiaomin, you made a mistake by regarding me as your imagined love rival! It is Ye Xuan who likes me, not the other way around. I’ve also clearly rejected him! Moreover, what belongs to you will remain yours, no one can take it away; what isn’t yours, no matter how you scheme, you might end up empty-handed in the end! Just like now, you’ve lost both the lady and the troops.”


Wu Xiaomin couldn’t find the words to refute An Mi’s statement.


All she could do was glare at her with eyes shooting daggers.


As soon as An Mi left, Wu Xiaomin called out: “Come out.”


Ye Xuan’s figure then emerged from around the corner.


Wu Xiaomin looked at him and said, “You heard, didn’t you? She doesn’t like you at all, she even disdains your affection. You are like a clown jumping around in front of her.”


Ye Xuan’s face was taut, looking extremely displeased.


“So, you called me here just to listen to this?” Ye Xuan’s gaze turned cold as he stared at her: “Do you think this will make me like you?”


Wu Xiaomin: “Ye Xuan, I’m trying to tell you, An Mi isn’t worth your affection.”


Ye Xuan: “Whether she’s worth it or not, I can judge for myself. You don’t need to direct me!”


“Ye Xuan, I can tell you clearly, no matter what you do for her, she will not like you.”


Because your family backgrounds are too different.


She didn’t say this part out loud.


Ye Xuan frowned: “You don’t need to worry about that!”


After saying that, he turned and left.


Wu Xiaomin could only watch helplessly as he walked away.


She really didn’t understand what was so good about An Mi that made him so devotedly fond of her.


After Ye Xuan left, he headed in the direction of An Mi.


But when he caught up with An Mi, he saw her together with those two guys from before.


He later asked around; one was called An Rui and the other Su Heng, both students in the Faculty of Law and School of Business respectively, and both sophomores.


An Rui must be her brother or cousin, given they share a surname, but he didn’t know about the other one.



Meanwhile, in the president’s office at the top floor of DK Group.


“Husband, do you think An Mi is already with Mr. Wan?”


Su He sat on the couch and asked the man reading documents at the desk.


Jiang Yan looked up at her, “Why do you ask?”


Su He said: “A few days ago, when I went to the police station to pick up An Mi, I noticed something strange about the way they looked at each other, but I felt too embarrassed to ask An Mi.”


After all, she had previously said she would not meddle in her private matters.


Moreover, An Mi rarely hides the truth from her. Since she didn’t take the initiative to tell her, it either means nothing’s going on, or she doesn’t want to talk about it for the time being.


Jiang Yan was silent for a while, then spoke: “An Mi is not a child anymore. She has her own thoughts. Whether it’s true or not, when it’s time for us to know, she will naturally let us know.”


Su He nodded: “That makes sense.”


“By the way, my brother and Sang Luo’s wedding date is set, it’s on the fifteenth of next month. Remember to free up your schedule,” Su He reminded.


Su Zhimian and Sang Luo had already registered their marriage, but her brother still wanted to give Sang Luo a complete wedding ceremony.


Although the order was a bit muddled, it didn’t really matter.


Jiang Yan: “Alright, I got it.”


Su He muttered: “I have to attend two weddings this year, it’s really a bit of a brain strain.”


She didn’t know what gifts to give.


Giving cash seems too crude and insincere.


Offering a house or a car, they aren’t lacking any.


In the end, she designed two wedding dresses by herself, one for Sang Luo and one for Jiang You, each unique in the world.


She designed the gifts specifically for their personalities, and it took her a lot of effort.


But since both of them liked it, it was all worth it.


Jiang Yan said, “You don’t need to give Jiang You that gift anymore.”


Su He naturally understood what he meant, “It’s not the same. You give yours, and I give mine.”


“Do we need to make it so clear?” the man asked with raised eyebrows.


Su He: “Money doesn’t need to be divided so clearly. What’s yours is still mine, and what’s mine is also mine, but as for giving gifts, we still have to make a distinction.”


The man’s gaze was soft and doting, his thin lips slightly hooked, “Yes, everything is yours. After all, you are the boss, and I’m just an employee.”


Su He stood up and said with a laugh, “Then keep up the hard work. The boss has other matters to attend to.”


Jiang Yan looked at her with tender affection, “Considering how hard I work, shouldn’t the boss give me a reward?”


Su He was well aware of what kind of reward he was referring to.


After thinking for a few seconds, she walked over to the desk.


She leaned forward with her hands supporting the desk’s surface, and her red lips covered the man’s thin lips.


But it was just for a few seconds before she withdrew.


She said, “There, that’s your reward.”


Jiang Yan: “…”


He didn’t taste anything…


“Isn’t that a bit stingy?” he said.


Su He knew him very well; if she let him get a taste, she wouldn’t be able to leave the office this morning.


“For you to work more efficiently later, I think this reward is enough.”


“…”


Before she turned to leave, she added, “If you work well, there may be another reward tonight, but it depends on your performance.”


Jiang Yan curled his thin lips, “Don’t worry, I’ll make sure to earn that reward tonight.”



After leaving DK, Su He went to A University.


She had received an invitation from the Principal of A University to give a medical lecture to the medical students there.


She didn’t refuse, as the future depends on these young people.


Moreover, City First Hospital has close ties with A University, and it is also one of her responsibilities to recruit more excellent doctors for the hospital.


The content of this medical lecture was suitable for first, second, and third-year students alike.


So, even before the time arrived, the school’s auditorium was already filled with people.


Chen Jin had gone early to secure a spot.


An Mi was delayed because of some work, and by the time she arrived at the auditorium, she almost thought she was in the wrong place.


As soon as she entered, the auditorium was packed with people. Everywhere she looked, it was crowded with people, even the aisles on both sides were filled.


She couldn’t locate Chen Jin at all; just by looking at the crowd, she was already dizzy.


She took out her phone and called Chen Jin right away.


“Hello, Jinjin, where are you? I’m at the entrance of the auditorium.”


Chen Jin stood up and waved towards the entrance of the auditorium, “I see you. I’m waving, can you see me? Walk towards your left, I’ve saved a spot in the middle of the fifth row.”


An Mi looked again carefully and saw her.


She replied, “Okay, I know, I see you.”


Five minutes later, An Mi finally managed to reach the spot Chen Jin had saved.


“My goodness, there are so many people.” After sitting down, An Mi exclaimed.


Chen Jin said, “You should see whose lecture it is. Professor Nil’s lecture is not something you can hear even with money, so of course, everyone would be desperate to attend. Most importantly, you can see her in person and ask questions live, which is an incredibly rare opportunity.”


“Of course, you wouldn’t understand our feelings as ordinary people since you can meet her anytime.”


Nil is An Mi’s older sister, and Chen Jin is the only one who knows this.


Chen Jin looked at An Mi with envy and asked, “Speaking of which, does your sister give you extra lessons?”


An Mi: “It’s not exactly extra lessons; I just ask my sister when I don’t understand something occasionally.”


Chen Jin had only two words left: “Apart from envy, I don’t know what else to say. But does your family all have this gene for studying medicine? It’s enough that your sister is so awesome, but I feel like you will become the next her.”


An Mi: “Don’t say that, I can’t catch up to my sister’s intelligence. As for genetics, I’m not sure. In our family, only my maternal grandfather studied medicine, then it was my sister, and then me.”


Chen Jin: “Your grandfather is?”


Chen Jin still hadn’t figured out the family relations in An Mi’s family, mainly because there were too many people.


An Mi: “You probably don’t know him, Su Yiguo.”


Chen Jin murmured to herself.


She felt that the name sounded familiar, as if she had seen it somewhere before.


“Wait, the Su Yiguo you’re talking about, couldn’t be the Professor Su Yiguo from the Chinese Academy of Sciences mentioned in our textbooks, could it?” Chen Jin asked.


An Mi nodded, “It’s rare for you to remember that.”


The next second, Chen Jin’s mouth formed a surprised “O”.


At this moment, Chen Jin couldn’t find the words to describe how she was feeling.


After struggling for a while, she said: “I finally understand where your top-student genes come from.”


At this time, the host’s voice rang out: “Ladies and gentlemen, we need to be quiet now, Professor Nil has arrived. In a moment, we will welcome Professor Nil with our warmest applause, alright?”


An affirmative “Alright” resounded from the crowd.


Before long, the tall figure of Su He appeared at the entrance of the auditorium.


“My goodness, your sister is really beautiful, this is the first time I’ve seen her in person,” Chen Jin said while clapping. “She’s got both looks and talent, being a professor at such a young age, I feel like I’m just here to make up the numbers in this world.”


An Mi: “I have a similar feeling.”


Chen Jin: “Speaking of which, how did your sister become a professor so young? Do we not attend the same kind of school?”


An Mi explained: “When my sister was in school, she didn’t progress step-by-step like we do; she skipped grades. Plus, with the help of my maternal grandfather, she started learning about medicine from the age of ten.”


Chen Jin: “Stop, you don’t need to say any more. I’m even more certain that I’m just here to make up the numbers. Your sister is not ordinary; she is the Chosen One, naturally cut out for this.”


“…”


Su He’s crisp voice filled the entire auditorium.


“Hello everyone, I’ll start with a self-introduction. I am Nil, and I am honored to have received the invitation from your esteemed school to teach you all…”



The lecture lasted for an hour and a half.


Actually, she didn’t spend much time talking; most of it was spent answering questions.


“Susu, you’ve worked hard today, occupying so much of your time,” Principal Tan Shengyuan of A University said.


Su He: “Uncle Tan, you’re too polite. It is my duty to contribute to the school.”


Tan Shengyuan was her maternal grandfather’s student, and he had essentially watched her grow up from a young age.


“Today’s lecture was brilliant. It was very enriching for those kids. If I didn’t know that you’re currently dedicated to research work, I would really want to hire you as a teacher at our school,” Principal Tan said. “Even though I know this wish won’t be fulfilled, I still hope that if you have time, you’ll come back more often to give them lessons, to teach them extra.”


Su He smiled and said: “As long as there’s a need for me, Uncle Tan, just say the word, no need to be shy.”


Principal Tan: “With your word, I am reassured.”


“Why don’t we have dinner together before you go back?” Tan Shengyuan said. “I’ll have someone make a reservation at a restaurant right now.”


Su He: “Uncle Tan, there’s no need to go to such trouble. I have to pick up the kids later. Let’s not. I’ll treat you next time when I’m free.”


Seeing the situation, Tan Shengyuan didn’t insist further: “Alright, then I’ll not delay you in picking up your kids.”


“…”


After Su He got into the car, she said to Fei Xu: “Hold on for a moment, don’t leave yet.”


Fei Xu replied: “Alright, Young Madam.”


After a while, An Mi, An Rui, and Su Heng arrived.


After the three of them got into the car, they called out in unison: “Sis.”


Su He responded with a “hmm” and then said: “Let’s go, Fei Xu.”


Fei Xu started the car, and soon they left the school.


Meanwhile, not far away, Ye Xuan watched this scene, somewhat confused.


Why did An Mi get into Professor Nil’s car?


“Sis, where are we going?” An Rui asked.


Su He: “Grandpa is here.”


She had received the message just ten minutes ago.
