Chapter 1228 - 824: The Grand Finale: With a Husband to Support Me, I’m Not Afraid of Losing My Job

"Teacher Su, in that case, is there still a need to settle this privately?" Pu Jin sneered.

"You were the ones who proposed to settle privately, not me. Whether there’s a need for it should be for you to weigh, why ask me?"

Xiao Meng found it quite amusing and retorted.

Huang Sheng pursed his lips, regretting his earlier laxity, having thought she was really as easy-going as she appeared on the surface...

"Teacher Su, we all know what Pu Wei did was indeed wrong, and you have grievances in your heart, but since we are settling privately, shouldn’t everyone take a step back?"

"Since it’s settling privately, then the side in the wrong should take more steps back. Professor Huang Sheng, it seems our understanding of the term ’settle privately’ is fundamentally different. If that’s the case, then there’s really no need for us to continue discussing."

Su Xiaomeng spoke and had already stood up.

"Teacher Su, don’t be in such a hurry, there’s room for discussion, there’s room for discussion." Vice Principal Lin quickly urged, trying to persuade Su Xiaomeng while signaling at Beiwai University President.

The Beiwai University President also stood up and said to Xiao Meng, "Teacher Su, let’s sit down and talk calmly. Anyway, those sitting here today are all your seniors, Professor Pu Jin is one of the top sociology professors in the country, Professor Huang Sheng is no less than Professor Qi Jun in linguistics, and this person is also the president of Beijing University, Teacher Su..."

The conversation had reached this point, obviously wanting Su Xiaomeng to give these people a bit of face, not to speak too harshly or absolutely.

"What professor, what president? I don’t see any, I only see knowledge degenerates unwilling to face their mistakes to protect their reputation and status, still intending to use improper means to make mistakes upon mistakes."

"..."

"..."

As soon as Su Xiaomeng finished speaking, the faces of the people opposite really turned ashen, esteemed professors and presidents of Beijing University were labeled as knowledge degenerates by a new university lecturer!

Generally speaking, the professors are quite strong-hearted and won’t get angry just because of others’ doubts, but now they indeed have no standing, and being lectured and insulted like this while being pointed at, even strong hearts can’t endure it.

Though Qi Jun actually supported Su Xiaomeng, hearing her speak like this, he felt a bit uneasy, thinking her wording was a bit too harsh.

The atmosphere in the meeting room turned cold and suffocating, just then, Chi Lun stepped forward to break the ice...

How did this person break it? Raised both hands and started clapping "clap clap clap..."!

"What Teacher Su said was spot on, what professor, what vice principal... hahaha..."

Qi Jun glared at Chi Lun, as Qi Jun was usually quite stern with his own nephew, Chi Lun.

Chi Lun yawned, stretched lazily, walked over to Su Xiaomeng, and put his arm around her shoulder. Since he was tall, his elbow landed on her shoulder just right, looking like they were quite friendly.

"If the one being plagiarized by Pu Wei today wasn’t the president of Yin Group, the wife of Beijing’s elite Yin Family Head Yin Shixiu, the lady of the Yin Family, I doubt Pu Wei would even admit to plagiarism."

"... I should say, if my husband hadn’t restored that audio recording and then posted it online, stirring up so much controversy, I doubt Professor Pu Wei would be sitting in front of me now, right?"

Su Xiaomeng added.

"I don’t know what benefit Vice Principal Lin got from the Pu Family, or how much favor the two Professors Pu have, coming all the way to Beiwai for negotiation. So many talented and virtuous teachers, yet you don’t intend to seek them out, instead protecting this shameless plagiarist..."

Su Xiaomeng concluded with a light chuckle, "Looks like the Education Bureau has one more thing to check these days."

Upon hearing this, Vice Principal Lin was also terrified, quickly saying, "Teacher Su... no need for that, right..."

"I came to the university to teach, thinking the atmosphere felt comfortable, colleagues, seniors all focused on their work, passionate about academic research, but now it seems... I was too naive."

"..."

"My husband Yin Shixiu is a man full of innovative spirit. As his wife, I naturally should have some innovative spirit too! I plan to visit the Education Bureau this afternoon and let the director listen to all the contents of our conversation just now."

Su Xiaomeng said, pulling out her phone, its recording interface still running.

Suddenly, everyone looked at Su Xiaomeng in shock.

Su Xiaomeng immediately looked at Pu Wei, and her gaze was like a fierce beast! This look was not much different from yesterday afternoon’s at the cafe.

"Pu Wei, in front of the professors and presidents, are you still going to forcibly seize it?"

Su Xiaomeng was recording with her phone, which Chi Lun didn’t expect, as most of the time during negotiations, people’s attention is focused on the content, and even if they know recording is important, they don’t record intentionally.

But Su Xiaomeng’s thinking was clear, always knowing where she was and what she was doing.

Even though her phone was smashed by Pu Wei yesterday, today she still remembered to keep the recording going.

Chi Lun glanced around the room. Except for Professor Qi Jun and the President, the people from Beijing University seemed inclined to want to snatch Su Xiaomeng’s phone and smash it to pieces!

"Teacher Su, what you did is indeed... a bit small-minded."

After a while, Vice Principal Lin could only stammer out this sentence.

"Vice Principal Lin, first of all, it’s wise to be cautious and principled, secondly, compared to Professor Pu Wei, Professor Pu Jin and Professor Huang Sheng, compared to you Vice Principal Lin, I think I can’t really be considered small-minded."

Su Xiaomeng smiled faintly,

"It’s about time for my class, if any professors have further questions, let’s address them at the Education Bureau."

Having said that, Xiao Meng walked out of the meeting room in large strides, indifferent to whether it was the president or professors calling her from behind.

Chi Lun shrugged and followed Xiao Meng out, though just an observer sitting on the sidelines, witnessing this drama was indeed quite exhilarating.

Today’s universities are indeed lacking the young blood like Su Xiaomeng’s, not just young but also full of drive.

How many dare confront the university president?

However...

Chi Lun really wondered whether Su Xiaomeng’s courage and boldness were inherent in her character or if it was because her husband was Yin Shixiu, giving her the entire Yin Family’s support...

"Teacher Su."

Chi Lun caught up to Su Xiaomeng, casually calling her.

Su Xiaomeng glanced at Chi Lun, "You came out too? Aren’t you afraid to follow me out like this?"

"Afraid of what?"

"I have a husband to support me, not afraid of losing my job, what about you?"

"..." Chi Lun felt he had overestimated Su Xiaomeng.

Seeing him lost for words, Xiao Meng laughed suddenly, patting his shoulder, saying, "My husband earns well, wouldn’t mind supporting another like you!"

"..."

Chi Lun raised his brows, looking at her coldly, but within seconds, both laughed out loud, laughing so much that passing students began glancing curiously.
