章 203: Chapter 1 Figure Out Who Our Friends Are

"I can understand your predicament, but understanding is not a reason to indulge."

Principal Zhou calmly gazed at Qiao Hongyi, who was seated before him, and after a long silence, he slowly began to speak.

"You are already an adult, and no matter what principles I try to teach you, you are unlikely to take them to heart. Since that's the case, why say more?"

Qiao Hongyi lowered his head and said, "I am here to apologize."

"You are not my student, don't claim a false relationship."

Principal Zhou shook his head and said, "Back then, I merely praised you a few times in front of your aunt. Now, thinking back, I feel a bit regretful. I thought you might at least learn some of your aunt's abilities, but now… well, you're on your own."

The expression on Qiao Hongyi's face vanished.

In the office, for a moment, only the sound of the clock's second hand moving could be heard.
