  The eyes of the teachers were not friendly as they looked at Qiao Weimin. Even Teacher Jin said, “Mr. Qiao, we want to discuss with you regarding Jing Yunzhao……”


  “What’s there to discuss about?! I want her to withdraw! What can you teachers do to stop it?!” Qiao Weimin said haughtily.

  “Of course we can’t stop it. But you must first prove to be qualified as Jing Yunzhao’s guardian! Plus, given that her grades are excellent, it’s most likely that doesn’t have to spend a single cent of yours to attend school. While relying on her own abilities, what right do you have to deprive her of her privileges?”Teacher Jin retorted.

  “Are you all out of your minds? Even if I didn’t pay for her school fees, I still raised her for all these years! Her fooling around outside will affect our Qiao family’s reputation!” Qiao Weimin was seriously angry. He didn’t think that even undergoing a mere withdrawal procedure would be this troublesome!

  If it were any other day, these teachers wouldn’t care this much about Jing Yunzhao and would only sigh at her misfortune. But today, Qiao Weimin took things too far.

  The moment he stepped into the school, he had started insulting the teachers. Now, these teachers wanted to do something ethical to shut Qiao Weimin’s mouth up.

  Logically speaking, as long as they had enough evidence to prove that Qiao Weimin was unworthy of being a guardian, they could contact the town’s leaders. Removing his rights as her guardian would only be as easy as lifting a finger.

  “You say I’m fooling around outside? Fine. Earlier, the teachers have mentioned that those hooligans have already been caught and things that needed to be investigated must have already been completed. Since I also need to go sign and testify, why don’t we all go together?!” Jing Yunzhao suggested coldly.

  “Okay! Let’s go! Just you wait, you stubborn brat! When we get home, I’ll fucking kill you!” Qiao Weimin threatened aggressively.

  Jing Yunzhao wasn’t scared. When they get home? She might not even return to that so-called ‘home’!

  Jing Yunzhao’s incident had already become huge. She had endless rumours circulating about her at school, but was also ranked as the top scoring student in the whole school. Because of that, if things were to be handled half-heartedly, the school’s reputation would definitely be a?ected negatively. Thus, the director took Teacher Jin, Jing Yunzhao, Qiao Weimin and the rest to the police station.

  Because they were contacted beforehand, the police had already prepared the necessary papers and handed it to them once they arrived.

  “Student Jing Yunzhao, are these the right hooligans?” After verifying her identity, the o?cer asked.

  Jing Yunzhao frowned, trying her best to recall the scene at that time. She thought for a while and kept thinking that they were missing a person. She said, “Mr. O?cer, Director, I remember there were six people, but there’s only five here…… Additionally, the one missing is probably their leader, and these people only listen to him……”


  The o?cer was surprised and said, “Did you remember wrongly?”


  “No, the man wasn’t too old, in his early twenties. He had ear piercings and didn’t have any distinctive features……” Jing Yunzhao described him slowly.

  A person without any distinctive features was the worst. How would they find him in a sea of people?

  He probably escaped to another place after these people were caught.

  But this crime couldn’t be considered a major one, especially since there were minors among the hooligans. The problem was that there was a policeman who witnessed had them attempting to rape Jing Yunzhao. If they were charged to have committed attempted rape, they would never be able to wash that crime o? for the rest of their lives.

  “Sigh, this isn’t good. These hooligans don’t have much reputation in the county town. They only did minor and sneaky things in the past. They were lucky enough to have never ended up here, but I didn’t think they would be this bold…… However, you don’t need to worry. We, the police, will try our best to catch the missing person, but don’t have too much hope. It has already been a while after all. He might not even be around here anymore.”


  Jing Yunzhao understood, but the situation just seemed a little regrettable.

  “Hmph! What do you mean he’s not around here anymore?! Jing Yunzhao, you can just keep pretending! You left the house at 7am today, but only arrived at school in the afternoon. Where did you go during that time?! I say, you definitely went to that hooligan’s place to do shameful things during those hours!” Qiao Weimin suddenly spoke up.
