Chapter 201: Chapter 201: Who Will Bear the Responsibility Chapter 201 Responsibility: Who Should Bear it? The female student from last year was expelled upon Liang Zisong’s suggestion and despite opposition from many others. Even the principal did not agree with the expulsion, preferring to keep her under observation at the school, but it was Liang Zisong who insisted on making an example out of her! Because of Liang Zisong’s persistence and his connections, the principal couldn’t ignore him. As a result, Qiu Ziyin, the student involved in a romantic relationship, became the "chicken" that was "slaughtered," and the rest of the students, out of fear, became "monkeys" too scared to interact with the opposite sex. For a long time, male and female students didn’t even dare to speak to each other, for fear of being caught by the school authority and teachers and made into another "chicken" to be "slaughtered." Liang Zisong was originally quite pleased with himself, thinking that he had taught the students a lesson, ensuring they would focus on their studies. But what he hadn’t anticipated was the fiery temperament of Qiu Ziyin, which ultimately led to a tragedy. The mother of that female student even came to the school to cry her heart out, but he managed to suppress the incident. What he had always been worried about was not the possibility of this issue escalating to higher authorities, for he had connections. What concerned him was the inability to cover up the incident, fearing that it would spread beyond his control. Unexpectedly, the incident was brought back into the light because of the alleged "premature romance" involving Mengyu. What should he do? He knew that no matter what he did next, for now, he must disperse the gathering students immediately, preventing them from congregating further. He had made a mistake; he should have decisively dispersed them earlier. He slipped out through the back door and then, pretending to have just walked in from outside, he approached the students. He glanced over the students: "What are you all doing here? Trying to start a revolt, huh?" Upon seeing the Director of Student Affairs arrive, the students immediately fell silent. Chu Zisong looked at Wu Jiangsheng: "Mr. Wu, what are you trying to do? Do you think this is another major movement? You want to be a student leader, do you think this is the May Fourth Movement?" Wu Jiangsheng, fearless by nature, was not intimidated by Chu Zisong at all. He directly addressed Chu Zisong: "Student leader? I was simply discussing with others that the school should not prohibit normal interactions between male and female students, because you claimed I was in a premature romance earlier today." Chu Zisong surveyed the crowd: "Who said our school prohibits normal interactions between male and female students? We only prohibit premature romance. When did we ever ban normal friendships between boys and girls? Is there such a regulation?" The students looked at each other in confusion: Has the school never prohibited normal interactions between male and female students? Had they spent the whole past year not daring to speak to one another for no reason at all? The students felt bewildered, as if they had been confined within an invisible barrier for a year, only to be suddenly told by their captor, "I didn’t confine you, it’s not my fault you didn’t come out." However, the revelation that they were free was, after all, good news. But Wu Jiangsheng felt something was amiss. "Then why, when Jiang Mengyu and I were only engaging in a normal relationship, did you label it as premature romance and want to expel us?" Chu Zisong scoffed, "I merely received a report claiming you were in a premature romance and issued you a verbal warning. Do you really think I have the final say in expelling a student?" Many students nodded internally, thinking, of course, how could the Director of Student Affairs have the final say in school matters? But in his heart, Chu Zisong sneered; in this school, he really could have the final say. Didn’t he get Qiu expelled singlehandedly last time? However, he realized he needed to find a way to amend the minutes of the meeting—this was a responsibility he couldn’t bear alone. At the very least, he needed to push the principal to the forefront to take the heat!
