"So, you’re the one who said it?" Deputy Principal Zhao finally calmed his anger.
He knew Zhang Zhaoyuan! Zhang was one of the top students at their Medical University, and someone with great potential to bee a future leader in the university. Naturally, Deputy Principal Zhao remembered such a student.
Zhang Zhaoyuan nodded. A mistake was a mistake.
The boy standing nearby noticed the principal’s unfavorable expression and quickly explained.
"Deputy Principal Zhao! This time, it was really a misunderstanding. Zhang Zhaoyuan confronted Dr. Bai, Dr. Bai rejected him, and we happened to acpany him to eat afterwards. Who knew we’d run into Dr. Bai dining with other people? Zhang had been drinking and, in his drunken state, might have said some inappropriate things. But there truly was no malice."
"Exactly! Principal, if you really look into it, even Dr. Bai bears some responsibility. When Zhang Zhaoyuan said those things, Dr. Bai didn’t clarify anything at all. That’s why everyone there misunderstood and thought Dr. Bai was unable to refute accusations about some scandal."
"Bai Xiao is something else. Although she’s a trainee, we all know her family’s situation—she es from the countryside—but she was seen with a man carrying a cell phone. It’s inevitable people would get the wrong idea. Besides, many people in the school have noticed that Dr. Bai often leaves the campus on Friday afternoons and doesn’t stay overnight."
"She’s a student from out of town who doesn’t live on campus. Isn’t this an obvious problem?"
"We also hope the school will thoroughly investigate this matter. Who knows, maybe Dr. Bai really has some moral issues."
"Nonsense! What are you babbling about? How could Dr. Bai possibly have moral issues?" Deputy Principal Zhao roared. These people were utterly reckless.
Did they think Bai Xiao was just an ordinary Yun Province student?
Did they think Bai Xiao was easy to bully?
The boy was stunned into silence by Deputy Principal Zhao’s response.
But he still muttered quietly.
"What’s the big deal about Dr. Bai? She needs money too. Deputy Principal Zhao, haven’t you noticed? Dr. Bai wears high-end clothes, and I’ve seen her picked up several times by a private car. This doesn’t seem like typical student behavior at all."
"You idiots! Dr. Bai’s family is actually from Modu, and they’re from a cadre background. Dr. Bai is a salaried doctor, and her husband is the Chief’s son, a squad leader himself! Would someone like Dr. Bai be lacking money? Are you guys out of your minds?" Deputy Principal Zhao was practically fuming with rage.
Zhang Zhaoyuan and the others were dumbfounded. "Impossible, right?"
Dr. Bai has such a background?
No one could tell.
Bai Xiao has always been so friendly and approachable, without any arrogance or flaunting, keeping such a low profile that she seemed no different from a regular student.
"You’re all grown men, yet you can’t even pare to one woman. Let me tell you, Dr. Bai isn’t the kind of person you’re imagining. Do you know that Dr. Bai came from the frontline? Do you know that Dr. Bai and her husband held their wedding on the minefield at the front? At the time, Squad Leader An had a landmine under his foot, and he could have sacrificed his life at any moment. Even so, Dr. Bai bravely stepped forward to join him in clearing landmines together. A couple like that—do you think Dr. Bai cares about vanity or materialism?" Deputy Principal Zhao was furious beyond belief.
Once he found out Bai Xiao was the niece of Director Yu, how could he not investigate further? And after digging into her background, even he was filled with admiration.
A girl like this, with such an exceptional family, has an immensely promising future ahead of her.
