Chapter 48: Chapter 48 He Has Hints from the Shi Family"Of course not," Shi Yaoguang’s eyes narrowed slightly, giving off a dangerous aura. "No one can take advantage of me for free." Cheng Lingdang subconsciously pouted. "That’s an understatement. Shi Yiqing has taken your identity for seventeen years and you haven’t fought with her for the Shi Family’s claim." Shi Yaoguang glanced at her sharply, "What did you say?" Cheng Lingdang weakly responded, "Nothing, nothing!" She was just casually making a comment. Shi Yaoguang gave her a look and explained, "The Shi Family doesn’t matter to me." "As for the insignificant Shi Family, since she wants it, I won’t fight with her for it. But... my things are not for taking without recompense." Although Cheng Lingdang didn’t know what she had in mind, the look on her face assured her that Yaoguang would never be at a loss. She clapped her hands happily, "Shi bro, it’s great that you think this way. I’m telling you, people take advantage of the good-natured. That conscienceless Shi Yiqing dared to do what she did to you before because she counts on your kindness, expecting you not to easily hold it against her." "If it was someone else in your place, they would’ve made her pay with her life already." Shi Yaoguang nodded without agreement or objection. At that moment, Qin Hongbo came trotting after the principal, heading towards the principal’s office. Seeing her, Qin Hongbo’s face showed undisguised triumph. Cheng Lingdang felt her teeth itch with irritation at his smug expression. She wrapped her arm around Shi Yaoguang’s and complained, "What kind of person is that? He seems to be waiting for your misfortune." Shi Yaoguang was unfazed, "We had a bet in advance. It was either him leaving or me. Under these circumstances, it’s normal for him to dislike me." Not to mention, even without the bet, Qin Hongbo couldn’t stand the sight of her. Now, all she wanted to know was whether her grades had anything to do with Qin Hongbo. Qin Hongbo, who had been flattering the principal all the way there, erupted completely upon seeing Shi Yaoguang. "Principal, you have to stand up for me today no matter what!" As he spoke, he glared at Shi Yaoguang, his expression one of annoyed embarrassment. "If everyone was like her, disrespectful to teachers, then who would dare come to teach at our school?" The principal glanced over Shi Yaoguang’s unperturbed face and remained silent. Qin Hongbo had to press on, "Principal, it’s not that I want to make trouble. It all started with her disrespecting the teachers. If it weren’t for her provocation, we wouldn’t have had any conflict." The principal, having listened to his prattle all the way, was getting impatient. "All you know how to do is to point out her faults. Why don’t you reflect on yourself? If it weren’t for your own shortcomings, would she harbor dissatisfaction with you?" Qin Hongbo had no intention of reflecting on himself, but was convinced that the problem laid solely with Shi Yaoguang. "I’ve taught not one or two students, but many. Among them, she’s the only one who doesn’t follow discipline. Doesn’t that prove something?" He went on, his tone intensifying. "Principal, you’re not thinking of turning a blind eye for the sake of the Shi Family’s face, are you?" The principal knew exactly what kind of person Qin Hongbo was. Under normal circumstances, if he knew that the Shi Family backed Shi Yaoguang, he would have been the first to bow and apologize. Turn a blind eye? He would kneel and call him daddy if needed! But this time, he was being tough. If there was said to be no issue at hand, the principal would be the first to disbelieve it. Indeed, it wasn’t that Qin Hongbo suddenly grew a backbone. If Shi Yaoguang was the genuine favored daughter named clearly by the Shi Family, he wouldn’t dare to do anything. On the contrary, If the Shi Family didn’t care about her, why should he give her face? Of course, he would deal with her as he pleased. He thought it would be just watching a show and nothing more, but on the first day of the new term, she’d already stirred up trouble. As these thoughts came to mind, Qin Hongbo felt a headache coming on again. Fortunately, he had received hints from the Shi Family. This time, he must completely drive Shi Yaoguang out of the school. Considering himself backed by a powerful support, Qin Hongbo faced Shi Yaoguang, believing himself not to be a coward. Of course, this was based on the fact that he did not know that Shi Yaoguang had lost the support of the Shi Family but had gained the backing of the Quan Family. ... Qin Hongbo, completely unaware of Shi Yaoguang’s real backing, mustered all his efforts, trying to take this opportunity to oust Shi Yaoguang from the school. Even knowing the principal was displeased, he stubbornly refused to relent. "Principal, you witnessed the bet between me and Shi Yaoguang," he said, "Since you didn’t stop it before, it’s like you agreed by default. You can’t back out at the crucial moment." When Qin Hongbo spoke about this, he clung to the principal with all his might, almost hugging him. The principal stepped back two paces, unable to resist rolling his eyes at him, "Speak your mind, but keep your distance from me!" Qin Hongbo pouted, "Principal, what I’m saying is very important. You can’t just ignore me!" The principal was impatient with him, but then Shi Yaoguang suddenly called his name, "Teacher Qin." Upon hearing her voice, Qin Hongbo felt a pang of anxiety in his heart. Since moments before, he had been trying to ignore Shi Yaoguang. He was afraid Shi Yaoguang would cast the same spell as last time. seaʀᴄh thё nôᴠel Fire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. While the principal had not experienced it, he had. She had inexplicably taken control of his ability to act, and if this happened again, he truly feared the unpredictable consequences. This was one of the reasons why he was so eager to drive Shi Yaoguang away. No one could comfortably tolerate such a dangerous element under their watch. Truth be told, if he wasn’t worried that nobody would believe him, he would have liked to expose Shi Yaoguang’s witchcraft to the public. But that was just wishful thinking. Shi Yaoguang knew witchcraft. However, this message could not be spread. Nobody would believe him. On this point, he was still rational. Shi Yaoguang called Qin Hongbo’s name once, and he started to tremble with fear. The principal covered his face, showing an expression that couldn’t bear to look. How had such a foolish teacher been kept on staff? He even considered, if Shi Yaoguang failed to defend herself in this matter, finding an excuse to drive him out. Qin Hongbo was unaware that the principal had already placed an axe over his head, ready to fall at any moment. He was absorbed in thinking about how to deal with Shi Yaoguang. "The conditions of the bet were proposed by you. It’s time for you to fulfill your promise, isn’t it?" Gathering his courage, Qin Hongbo spoke up. Shi Yaoguang replied calmly, "Indeed, I initiated the bet, but—" She hadn’t finished her sentence when Qin Hongbo interrupted her seriously. "You’re not going to tell me that when you bet with me, you didn’t specify whether the first place you mentioned was in the positive numbers or not, are you?" Shi Yaoguang smiled at him, then said frankly, "Teacher Qin need not worry about me going back on my word. Having said that I would rank first, I certainly wouldn’t consider coming in last as an option."
