Chapter 25: Lawless

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

In a way, the Science and Technology High School could be considered an aristocratic school. Although it was to help the rich families manage their unpromising children, these children all had one thing in common. They were spoiled and pampered since childhood. When teachers punished them, they also took into account their family backgrounds, thus showing some leniency.

However, Zhang Ji was an exception. He could be said to be the biggest rule in the Science and Technology High School.

Zhang Ji dealt with his students with a military-style management, emphasizing rules and orders for everything. He didn’t care whose child you were. Even if it was the principal’s child who caused trouble today, he would punish him as he should.

Therefore, all the students in the school were afraid of him. Even someone as lawless as Shen Ming had to obediently say, “Hello, Teacher.”

Zhang Ji’s cold gaze swept across everyone. Those onlooking students were so frightened that they took a step back. He ignored Miao Dong and the others and said to the group of onlookers, “Go do what you need to do. Go back to the dormitory after dinner. You’re not allowed to stay here!”

The crowd dispersed with a swoosh, and even Li Chen ran away.

Miao Dong was dumbfounded. She even suspected that her eyes were playing tricks on her. These people dispersed too quickly! He scolded Li Chen in his heart. This guy was really a disloyal friend. She had spent so much money to treat him to meat for nothing!

She had completely lost the confidence to scold Shen Ming just now. Now, she felt a lingering fear, worried that she wouldn’t be able to take the punishment later.

Zhang Ji first glanced at Shen Ming, who had just gotten up with a swollen face. “Looks like we’re old acquaintances. Stand aside first!”

Shen Ming and his two sidekicks stood obediently at the side. Their bodies stood straight, and the fingers of their hands were pressed tightly against the outside of their thighs. What a standard military posture!

Zhang Ji looked at Miao Dong again and frowned. On the first day he saw Miao Dong, he was certain that this student was a troublemaker, judging by her mischievous grin.

It would be the biggest joke in the world if word got out that a girl disguised as a boy and entered a boys’ school!

As expected, she had only been here for less than a week. First, she changed dormitories, then she skipped class and didn’t attend evening self-study. Now, she was actually brawling in the canteen openly. She was simply lawless!

Zhang Ji’s voice was dignified. “When you first entered the school, I reminded you that school is a place to study. You have to behave yourself. Is this your attitude as a student?”

Miao Dong gulped and said shakily, “T… Teacher, I really didn’t do it on purpose. It’s all Shen Ming’s fault for provoking me!”

Zhang Ji said, “If you don’t provoke him, will he provoke you? To bring bad things upon oneself as a result of one’s bad character. It takes two to tango. Look at how much trouble you’ve caused since you entered school.”

Miao Dong was speechless. What kind of logic was this? Were all the teachers in the world the same? They were completely unreasonable!

Miao Dong wanted to retort, but Zhang Ji stopped her sternly. “Go over and stand there too. We’ll talk about your problem later!”

Zhang Ji ignored her and turned to look at Zhou Feng.

Miao Dong could only obediently stand beside Shen Ming and imitate his posture.

Shen Ming was really afraid of Miao Dong. He quietly took a step away from her.

Zhang Ji sized up Zhou Feng and frowned. His anger slowly gathered and even his hair stood on end.

He didn’t speak, but Zhou Feng did. “Teacher, if you want to scold me, go ahead. I know I was wrong.”

I know I was wrong???

Miao Dong’s eyes widened. She even suspected that there was something wrong with her hearing. He actually admitted that he was wrong? Did the sun rise from the west?!

Zhang Ji looked at him for a long time. In the end, he suppressed his scolding and snorted. “Go to the Academic Affairs Office and wait!”

Zhou Feng didn’t stand in a deadlock. He didn’t even resist. He just turned around and obediently went to the Academic Affairs Office.

This shocked Miao Dong even more. She felt that this was a big problem. Zhang Ji must be trying to fire Zhou Feng!

Miao Dong saw Zhang Ji walking towards her and hurriedly said, “Teacher, this is all my fault. Don’t punish him! He really just wants to help me. Please don’t expel him!”

Zhang Ji glanced at Miao Dong, who immediately shut up.

Zhang Ji pointed at her. “Take care of yourself first. You’re still in the mood to care about other people’s business when you’ve made a mistake! Pay attention to your identity. You’re different from them.”

Miao Dong knew that he was reminding her that she was a girl. Only the principal, Zhang Ji, and Shen Ming knew that she was a girl in this school.

She admitted her mistake obediently. “Teacher, I was wrong. I’ll definitely be careful in the future.”
