Principal Lu also looked at Jiang Yi. He had heard a little about the grudge between Jiang Yi and Gu Qingchen, but Jiang Yi was an old man from Hongfeng after all. Logically speaking, he shouldn’t have drugged the student.
Gu Qingchen smiled at Jiang Yi before shifting her gaze to Principal Lu. “Before answering this question, I would like to know how Principal Lu is going to deal with the person who drugged Guo Yuxuan.”
Principal Lu was not vague at all. He said bluntly, “Expel him and call the police.”
Gu Qingchen nodded in agreement when she heard Principal Lu’s straightforward solution.
“Actually, it’s very easy to find out who drugged Guo Yuxuan. I have a way. Although I can directly say who was the criminal, I don’t think my one-sided statement will convince the public. I have a way to get the criminal to admit their doing.”
Gu Qingchen did not directly say who was the criminal, but chose another method.
Principal Lu was stunned for a moment, but after thinking about it, he felt that Gu Qingchen was right. Since they had to change their clothes backstage, it was impossible for anyone to keep an eye on them. In this era, there were no surveillance cameras. If they wanted to convict the criminal, Gu Qingchen’s one-sided story would not convince everyone.
However, wasn’t Gu Qingchen’s method a little too unreliable? How could the criminal to admit it? Or did Gu Qingchen have a way?
After Principal Lu thought it through, he looked at Gu Qingchen and asked, “What method do you have?”
Gu Qingchen looked around and found that Jiang Yi’s gaze had not left Gu Qingchen. He was obviously worried that Gu Qingchen really had a way.
“The fewer people who know about this solution, the safer it will be. So, Principal Lu, I only want to tell you.”
Principal Lu did not object, and the other teachers did not say anything. Only Jiang Yi objected, “How can we do that? This is not a small matter. As the school’s top management, we all need to have the right to know. Or are you just trying to be mysterious?”
Gu Qingchen raised her eyebrows, “Director Jiang, there are so many teachers here. It seems that you are the only one who is very concerned. I am doing this because the fewer people who know, the greater the chance of success. Director Jiang would not want to not catch the person who poisoned the student, right?”
Principal Lu also looked over. Jiang Yi’s behavior today was indeed a little abnormal. Gu Qingchen did not want to tell others, so it was understandable. Moreover, he was the principal. It would be the same if he knew the method. Why was Jiang Yi so insistent on knowing the method.
Jiang Yi seemed to have realized that he had been impulsive. He glanced at the principal and had no choice but to give up, “I just think that I am in charge of all the freshmen. I have to responsible for this incident. I want to find the person who poisoned Guo Yuxuan more than anyone else.”
Gu Qingchen looked at Jiang Yi meaningfully and said indifferently, “Don’t worry, Director Jiang. If this matter has nothing to do with you, the school will not blame you, right, Principal Lu?”
Principal Lu nodded and patted Jiang Yi’s shoulder comfortingly, “I know you’re anxious, but the most important thing is to find the criminal. You have to manage so many new students by yourself, so it’s inevitable that you can’t take care of them. Don’t blame yourself too much.”
Jiang Yi wanted to say something else, but looking at Gu Qingchen’s half-smile, he really didn’t want to say anything else. Otherwise, he would make too many mistakes and get caught by Gu Qingchen.
Everyone left the principal’s office consciously. Gu Qingchen then told Principal Lu the method.
After a while, the door of the principal’s office opened. The two of them looked normal, so no one could tell what was going on.
Jiang Yi had been staring at Principal Lu. Seeing that Principal Lu didn’t look at him, he was slightly relieved, but he was thinking about something.
This matter had to be resolved immediately. If he really waited for Gu Qingchen to find a way to catch the criminal, he would be in a passive position.
It seemed that… he really had to take action.
Although Guo Yuxuan’s drug was not given by Jiang Yi, the drug was indeed provided by him. If An Ge was really caught red-handed, he would definitely give him up.
Yesterday, An Ge had already looked for him in private and asked him to think of a way to protect himself. Otherwise, An Ge would expose the fact that the medicine was provided by him.
Although Jiang Yi did not want to be threatened by An Ge, the situation was urgent now. He could only help An Ge cover up this matter first and then think of a way to deal with An Ge later.
When Gu Qingchen left, she took a deep look at Jiang Yi. That look seemed to have seen through him completely. It was as if he did not have any secrets in front of Gu Qingchen.
This feeling made him shudder.
That night, after Gu Qingchen finished school, she went to the jade shop. Xiang Yang told Gu Qingchen everything that had happened recently. Yan Xiaoju thought about it for a long time and finally made up her mind. She took her father and stepmother’s family to court.
The court had already started to accept this matter. According to the lawyer that Xiang Yang hired, they had a good chance of winning this case because Yan Xiaoju was rescued in front of many people. There was also the testimony of the nanny of the Yan family. It proved that they had been treating Yan Xiaoju badly for many years. There were also the testimony of some neighbors. The situation of the Yan family was still very unfavorable.
The people of the Yan family could be considered to have been involved in a lawsuit this time.
Mr. Yan, Yan Xiaoju’s stepmother, and Yan Jiaoyue had been struggling all day. Mr. Yan even blamed his wife and Yan Jiaoyue. It was because the two of them treated Yan Xiaoju badly that things had come to this point.
At the same time, he also hated Yan Xiaoju very much. He thought that Yan Xiaoju was an ingrate. He had raised her for so many years, but Yan Xiaoju had actually sued him in court. She was simply unfilial.
He had been complaining about this and that. He had never thought of he was also one of the reasons that caused their dire situation.
Yan Jiaoyue and her mother had been living a very miserable life recently. Not only were they being looked down upon, but they also had to live in fear all day long, afraid that they would really go to jail. If they really did go to jail, their lives would be ruined.
It would take some time to go to court. On the other side, Gu Qingchen’s second uncle, Gu Yuanguo, and Jiang Zhong were also in a bad mood.
Jiang Zhong was a ruthless person, but when he met a shameless local scoundrel like Gu Yuanguo, he also had a headache.
In addition, Gu Qingchen had spread a lot of news. His family’s business had been greatly affected, and the officials had also joined in. It was the vice president of the Jade Association who used his influence to force Jiang Zhong to return the Jiang Jewelry Store to Gu Qingchen.
In addition, Gu Yuanguo and the police said that Jiang Zhong had tortured him in private. The results of the medical examination at the hospital also proved that Gu Yuanguo had been severely tortured before, and the police had also found Jiang Zhong.
During this period of time, Jiang Zhong had a bad temper. It was precisely because of this that he had told his brother, Jiang Yi to punish Gu Qingchen in Hongfeng. That was why Jiang Yi had provided the drug to An Ge. He wanted to make things difficult for Gu Qingchen.
In the end, he had not been able to plot against Gu Qingchen. Now, he had gotten himself into trouble. Not to mention how regretful he was now. Therefore, Jiang Yi was a little resentful of Jiang Zhong. When Jiang Zhong had first gotten into trouble, he had helped him. Now, he did not even want to see Jiang Zhong.
