Qi Yu looked up at Huo Xiao with a complicated look in his eyes.

He had never thought that he would meet his mother in such a way, nor did he expect her to be so excited to meet him.

All he wanted was to be by her side!

Huo Xiao sighed helplessly and turned to Ms. Ling again. “I think you don’t have good judgment on people. You’re not capable of educating us at all!”

Ms. Ling looked at Qi Yu with a strange gaze. After a long while, she walked out of the classroom without saying a word.

Seeing this, Qi Yu hurriedly chased after her.

Shen You had wanted to stop him, but Huo Xiao stopped her.

The director of studies was so angry that his face turned ashen. He pointed at the students in front of him with a trembling finger. “You bunch of ungrateful people…”

The director was so angry that he could not continue speaking. He waved his hand and turned to leave.

Shen You raised her eyebrows at Huo Xiao. The two of them looked at each other and smiled.

The rest of the class finally realized that the devil seemed to have been chased away by Huo Xiao and Shen You. They instantly cheered.

While the group of people was excited, the principal walked in through the back door.

He coughed lightly and the class instantly became quiet.

The principal raised his chin at Huo Xiao and Shen You. “You two, come here!”

Shen You stuck out her tongue at Huo Xiao, and the two of them followed the principal out of the classroom.

When they arrived at the principal’s office, the principal walked past the office desk and sat down.

Huo Xiao and Shen You stood in front of the office desk, waiting for the principal to lecture them.

“The two of you are really smart. You actually dare to use me as a shield!” The principal glared at the two of them with an unperturbed expression.

Without waiting for Shen You to speak, Huo Xiao spoke first. “It’s not Shen You’s fault. I found out something on my own.”

“So you dragged me, an old man, into this?” The principal snorted discontentedly.

“Principal, you can’t say that!” Shen You immediately spoke up.

“Look, after what Huo Xiao had said today, in our hearts, you are a hidden and insightful expert behind the scenes!” Shen You gave the principal a thumbs up.

However, the principal looked at the two of them with disdain. “Don’t flatter, I’m tired of hearing it!”

“Let me tell you, the only reason I allowed you to mess around today is that I hope…” the principal said and hesitated for a moment.

Shen You immediately continued, “You hope we can use our words to clean up the atmosphere in the school!”

The principal glanced at Shen You. “You know the best!”

Shen You chuckled and said, “Don’t worry, Principal. I guarantee I’ll do what I have promised you!”

“As long as that woman stops bossing our class around, I guarantee the entire class will graduate smoothly!” Shen You promised.

Huo Xiao was a little surprised when he heard this promise. “That’s it? Do you really think the principal has agreed to help you just because of this?”

Shen You pouted unhappily. “Can’t you be simpler?”

Huo Xiao sighed and said, “Principal, if there’s anything else you want, just say it!”

The principal laughed and leaned back on his chair. He looked at Huo Xiao and said, “Huo Xiao, you’ve really inherited all the good qualities of your parents!”

“I’m not hiding anything from you guys. I’m also under a lot of pressure for this Ms. Ling to come,” the principal looked at the two of them and said helplessly.

“I just want to use you to get her out of the school,” the principal said with his eyes darting between the two of them.

“Of course, I’m also very satisfied with the guarantee that Shen You gave me,” the principal revealed a sly smile. “After all, it’s not easy to manage that group of monkeys in your class!”

“Although you’re all students of the elite class, you know how your grades are!” The principal said and sighed.

“I don’t expect you to win any glory for the school. As long as you can graduate successfully, It’s considered I have done my part in the eyes of your parents.” When the principal said this, he looked especially weary.

Shen You glanced at Huo Xiao and pursed her lips, feeling as if she had been cheated.

Since it was a sure-win business for everyone, everyone was happy.

However, was Ms. Ling really that easy to defeat?

Shen You and Huo Xiao returned to their class, but what greeted them was the coldness of the class.

Even Xie Xiao looked at Shen You with a strange expression.

Shen You felt a little strange. She grabbed Zhu Ge and asked, “What’s wrong with you two?”

Zhu Ge shrugged and said, “Why didn’t the two of you tell us such a big thing!”

“Besides, do you know how regretful those girls who used to laugh at Qi Yu are now?” Zhu Ge said as he looked at the girls in front of him.

Shen You followed Zhu Ge’s gaze and saw the resentful eyes of those girls.

Shen You quickly raised her hands to show her innocence. “I was not aware either! Really!”

After Shen You said that, everyone looked at the culprit — Huo Xiao.
