Today, however, Mr. Sun had slammed the table and glared at her over the issue of the two children fighting. It had already left her feeling resentful, and now seeing Ye Xuan not showing any intent to apologize, the rage she had suppressed for so long finally erupted. “How should this be handled?” Li Hongyan looked frosty as she sternly scolded Ye Xuan, “Ye Ling’er has fought in school. You parents bear a great responsibility for this. This incident will be recorded as a major demerit. If such an incident happens again, she will be immediately expelled.” Hearing Li Hongyan’s method of handling the situation, Sun Wanxiang was not very satisfied but didn’t say anything, only glancing sideways at Ye Xuan and saying, “I, Sun, can easily afford the medical expenses, but your sister must apologize to my daughter.” At that moment, in the spacious office, many teachers turned their attention towards them. Despite feeling slightly discontented with the aggressive stance of Li Hongyan and Sun Wanxiang, they remained silent. Seeing the defiant attitude of the two, Ye Xuan appeared very calm. He slowly stood up and walked over to Ye Ling’er, asking, “Ling’er, between you and this classmate, who threw the first punch?” Looking at Ye Xuan’s calm expression, Ye Ling’er weakly said, “She hit me first, and then I fought back.” Seeing the siblings’ exchange, Li Hongyan’s expression changed before she self-righteously said, “Her hitting you was wrong, but you hitting her back was also wrong.” Li Hongyan’s rhetoric seemed impeccable and even had the other teachers nodding in agreement. Indeed, fights among students happened from time to time, just like the commonly used analogy nowadays: If a dog bites you, can you bite it back? The school’s educational stance was to teach students to comfort themselves, not to fuss over unworthy people, which is the essence that students should embrace. Listening to Li Hongyan speak so righteously, Ye Ling’er bit her lips tightly. She wanted to retort, but when the words reached her lips, she didn’t know what to say, her eyes brimming with immense grievance. Suddenly, she turned around. Ye Xuan walked leisurely towards Li Hongyan, and the next scene left everyone in the office dumbfounded. Slap! Ye Xuan fiercely slapped Li Hongyan across the face, sending her staggering, with a bright red handprint starkly visible. Silence, an intense silence. Li Hongyan was stunned by Ye Xuan’s slap and it took several moments before she regained her senses. Her face was flushed with immense shame and rage, and she rushed at Ye Xuan, claws bared. Slap! Ye Xuan backhanded another slap, this time sending Li Hongyan flying, spitting out several teeth, her graceful body crashing into the office desk. “I hit you, and it was wrong of me, but why did you hit back?” Ye Xuan said softly. At this point. Li Hongyan’s cheeks were purplish-blue, hair utterly disheveled, and she was momentarily speechless from Ye Xuan’s question, her eyes filled with rage, unable to formulate a response. The teachers observing were left with complex expressions. While Ye Xuan’s actions seemed extremely violent, they couldn’t fault them. “Parents hitting teachers, this is like turning the world upside down. What kind of school is Tianlan Academy?” Although Sun Wanxiang was surprised by Ye Xuan’s actions, he was here to vent for his daughter, leading him to look even more unfavorably at Ye Xuan. “Mr. Sun, are you this student’s father?” Ye Xuan pulled over a chair and sat directly opposite Sun Wanxiang. He no longer bothered to glance at Li Hongyan, while Ye Ling’er silently moved behind Ye Xuan, her eyes filled with a mix of complexity and admiration. “Hmph, don’t think just because you’re a martial practitioner, I’ll be afraid of you,” Sun Wanxiang disdainfully said. “My sister hitting your daughter was wrong. On her behalf, I apologize to you.” Ye Xuan’s attitude left Sun Wanxiang dumbstruck, for he had thought that the other party intended to intimidate him with force, but he hadn’t expected Ye Xuan to apologize. This led Sun Wanxiang to mistakenly believe that the other knew his identity and had already softened. “Hmph.” “An apology can settle this, then what’s the point of having arrest officers in the Suspended Mirror Department?” Sun Wanxiang claimed the upper hand uncompromisingly. “How about this, your daughter was injured, any medical expenses needed, I will compensate.” Ye Xuan said with an unflinching expression. “Medical expenses?” Sun Wanxiang was startled. Although he wasn’t short of money, he naturally favored having more, causing him to scrutinize Ye Xuan more closely before sneering: “My daughter is a precious lady; the medical expenses should at least be one million.” Following Sun Wanxiang’s statement, the entire office’s teachers gasped, looking at Ye Xuan’s humble posture with a hint of disdain in their eyes. “I can.” Ye Xuan wasted no words and directly pulled out a Golden Card, handing it to Sun Wanxiang: “This card contains one million, consider it the medical expenses for this student. The password is the last six digits of the card number.” Watching Ye Xuan’s actions, Ye Ling’er anxiously spoke up, “Brother, you shouldn’t give it to him.” “Ling’er, don’t make a fuss.” Ye Xuan said calmly. Taking the Golden Card from Ye Xuan’s hand, Sun Wanxiang hadn’t expected this young man to actually compensate him with one million, which significantly lifted his mood. He rose from his seat and said, “Since your attitude is very good, let’s consider the matter settled.” As Sun Wanxiang spoke, he called his daughter to walk towards the door, but before they had taken a few steps, Ye Xuan’s calm voice resonated once more. “We’ve apologized and compensated the medical fees, isn’t it time to talk about my sister’s injuries?” “Huh?” Sun Wanxiang’s face changed drastically, and he abruptly turned to look at Ye Xuan, his voice darkening: “Kid, don’t bite off more than you can chew. Some people you simply cannot afford to offend.” “There’s no one in this world that I cannot afford to offend. The matter isn’t resolved yet, do you think you can just leave?” Ye Xuan’s expression gradually darkened. “Ha!” Seeing Ye Xuan’s change of attitude, Sun Wanxiang felt a sudden unease. “What do you want?” Sun Wanxiang said sinisterly. “I’m a reasonable man. My sister’s face is scratched up, and I need you and your daughter to apologize to her and also cover her medical expenses.” Ye Xuan stated icily. “Apologize, medical expenses?” “How much money do you want?” Suddenly, several bodyguards entered outside the office door, standing directly behind Sun Wanxiang. Their looks toward Ye Xuan were menacing. “One billion Xia Country Coins, and they must apologize to my little sister in front of the whole school,” Ye Xuan directly ignored the bodyguards next to Sun Wanxiang, his voice growing colder. “Kid, it seems you’re seeking death.” “Get rid of him.” Sun Wanxiang spoke viciously, commanding the bodyguards to advance towards Ye Xuan with a menacing smile, while the teachers in the office paled and retreated, fearing they might be caught in the crossfire.
