"Did such an incident actually happen, have you investigated it?" Song Yan asked.
"No, absolutely not," Principal Wu immediately interjected, his face stern, "As soon as I heard such rumors circulating in the school, I immediately found Teacher Wang. Although I trust him deeply, as a principal, I must take responsibility for my students."
"After the investigation by me and the security department, and after questioning the rest of the students in the class, we determined that Teacher Wang had no issues; the students all think highly of him."
