Chapter 174: A Good Hand of Cards

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

She Imew that the person who consumed her love charm might develop feelings for her, but she didn’t expect him to go to the extent of coming to the school and making such a foolish gesture.

She had thought that if she stayed indoors, the man wouldn’t see her and would eventually leave. However, she underestimated the lack of rationality in someone under the influence of the love charm.

The more she avoided him, the more persistent he became. His voice grew louder as he drove his convertible car around in front of various academic buildings.

Lu Siyu felt a mix of embarrassment and anger, and in frustration, she abruptly stood up and rushed downstairs.

As soon as the man saw her, he got out of the car and knelt down, his eyes filled with devotion.

Some of the onlookers in the hallway joined in, encouraging Lu Siyu by chanting, “Say yes to him, say yes!”

Lu Siyu hurriedly approached him, grabbed the flowers from his hand, threw them on the ground, and gritted her teeth as she exclaimed, “Who wants your affection? Get lost! I never want to see you again. Never appear in front of me!”

She had spent five million on the love charm, and this man had consumed nearly two million of it last night. Now he had come to her school, causing her such embarrassment.

She felt an overwhelming desire to eliminate him!

But the man seemed completely oblivious to her insults, looking at her with profound affection and continuing to speak.

“Siyu, I truly love you. What do you desire? A house, a car, money? I can give you everything! I have already initiated a divorce with that woman, and there is nothing standing between us anymore!”

Upon hearing this, the onlookers started berating him even more, criticizing him as a scumbag and referring to Lu Siyu as a homewrecker.

Lu Siyu had never felt so ashamed in her life. She felt as if she were going crazy, pushing the man away.

She wanted Gu Shiyan to fall in love with her, not this bald-headed man!

However, the man allowed her to hit and scold him, refusing to leave under any circumstances.

More and more students gathered outside the classroom, and soon the entire Zhenhai High School had come out to witness the commotion.

Lu Miao observed with interest for a while.

Love charms affected different people in different ways, but the one thing that remained consistent was their unwavering devotion. Unless there was an antidote, Lu Siyu would likely be tormented by this man for the rest of her life.

Lu Miao didn’t see Lu Siyu as an innocent victim. She believed that Lu Siyu had brought this upon herself and should face the consequences.

Finally, the school security guards arrived and forcibly removed the man.

Lu Siyu let out a sigh of relief.

Just as she was about to cover her face and return to the classroom, someone ran up to her and said, “The principal wants to see you in his office.”

Five minutes later, Lu Siyu nervously entered the principal’s office.

Inside the office, Principal Xu, the head teacher, and their experimental class teacher were present.

“Principal Xu, Head Teacher, Teacher Shen,” she greeted each of them.

Principal Xu set aside the documents in his hand, looked up at her, and spoke sternly.

“Lu Siyu, regardless of your personal life outside of school, you should not bring such matters into the school. Zhenhai High School is a prestigious institution with a long history, and your actions have significantly impacted the school’s reputation. After discussing the matter with the head teacher, Teacher Shen, and myself, we have decided to expel you from the school. Please gather your belongings from the classroom and leave as soon as possible.”

Zhenhai High School had never expelled a student before.

If Lu Siyu were to be expelled, her name would forever be engraved on the pillar of shame at Zhenhai High School.

All future students would come to know that Lu Siyu had been expelled from the school.

The incident involving Lu Siyu leaking the exam questions to the R-country contestant had caused quite a stir. Although she managed to suppress its spread on social media, it was widely known within the industry, and it had dealt a blow to the school’s reputation.

And now, she had gone even further by becoming involved in someone else’s family as a third party and bringing the drama to the school. If news of this spread, Zhenhai High School would face a significant loss of face among other schools. It might even impact their chances in next year’s national ranking of top high schools.

Lu Siyu’s face turned pale in an instant, and she hurriedly explained, “Principal Xu, things are not as you think. I did not ruin anyone’s family or act as a third party. Yesterday, I coincidentally bumped into him at a restaurant. I don’t even Imow him or that he would show up at the school.”

Throughout its many years of existence, Zhenhai High School had never expelled a student.

If Lu Siyu were to be expelled, her name would forever be associated with shame and disgrace, engraved in the history of Zhenhai High School. Every student who came to the school in the future would learn about Lu Siyu’s expulsion.

“So, are you saying that you did nothing, and yet this man abandoned his wife and children, disregarding his own reputation, just to pursue you?” Principal Xu questioned, looking directly at her.

Lu Siyu nodded frantically, tears welling up in her eyes. “Yes, I am telling the truth. I did not lie.”

Principal Xu’s anger boiled over, and he slammed his hand on the table. “I feel like you’re treating us like fools!”

Lu Siyu’s despair deepened, and she turned to the head teacher and the class advisor beside her. “Head Teacher, Teacher Shen, I truly did nothing wrong.”

As the class advisor of the experimental class, Teacher Shen Meng had always shown special favor towards this outstanding student. She had even supported Lu Siyu’s request for a leave of absence to participate in the talent show, despite the school’s objections.

Who could have imagined that in just two short months since the start of the school year, Lu Siyu would single-handedly ruin everything she had worked for?

Unable to bear witness to the downfall of a student she had once favored, Teacher Shen Meng pleaded with Principal Xu, “Principal, perhaps there is a misunderstanding here? Siyu is still young, and she has a promising future ahead. She wouldn’t do something to jeopardize her own future.”

“A misunderstanding? Was it also a misunderstanding when she leaked the exam questions to eliminate her own sister? She has already shown herself capable of such actions at such a young age. Who knows what else she might do in the future? Furthermore, she has now brought this drama to the school. It’s best for her to pack her belongings and leave. Our school cannot tolerate such troublemakers!” Principal Xu declared, not mincing his words.

Despite Teacher Shen Meng’s repeated pleas, she had no choice but to accept defeat. Leaving the principal’s office, she accompanied Lu Siyu, who was now in tears.

“Teacher Shen, please help me. I truly do not want to be expelled,” Lu Siyu implored, her voice choked with emotion.

Teacher Shen Meng let out a heavy sigh. “For now, you should go back. Principal Xu is still filled with anger, and there’s nothing anyone can do at the moment. Give me a couple of days, and I will try to plead on your behalf again. If that fails, Third High School is also a good option. I have a good relationship with their class advisor, and I can recommend you there.”

Teacher

Shen Meng had done her utmost. Even she could no longer bear witness to Lu Siyu’s downfall. Though reluctant, Lu Siyu nodded with tears streaming down her face, without even returning to pack her things. She left directly.

In the afternoon, before heading home, Lu Miao made a stop at the City God Temple, which was relatively close to the city center. Her talisman papers and special ink for drawing symbols were running low, and she needed to restock.

As she approached the destination, she noticed a crowd gathered on the road ahead, pointing and discussing something. Passersby would occasionally steal glances before quickly moving along, clearly drawn to the commotion.

Lu Miao took a few steps forward, and then she saw….
