Chapter 117: Pressuring

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation      Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

After setting down her schoolbag, Nan Yan headed to the office.

Inside the office, the homeroom teacher and the headmaster were both sitting in front of their computers, their expressions quite serious.

“Headmaster, homeroom teacher.”

Nan Yan greeted them as she entered the room.

Upon seeing her enter, the headmaster shifted his gaze from the comments section and looked at her.

“Nan Yan, is the incident exposed on the internet true?”

Standing before him, Nan Yan’s tone was calm. “The video was very clear.” Her action of physically confronting Nan Hongyang was indeed a fact, and there was no need to deny it.

If it weren’t for the fact that he had raised the original host for sixteen years, she wouldn’t have been so lenient.

The headmaster sighed. “You… acted too impulsively.”

He had always favored Nan Yan, but this time, she had really gone too far.

Many people online were already criticizing her, and some even started petitions under the school’s official account, demanding her expulsion.

If this matter wasn’t resolved properly, Nan Yan’s reputation would be greatly tarnished.

The homeroom teacher also couldn’t understand. “Nan Yan, it happened outside of school in front of so many people. Why couldn’t you just endure it?”

“I couldn’t.” Nan Yan didn’t intend to cause trouble for the school. “I’ll handle this myself. Homeroom teacher, headmaster, I will give the school a satisfactory answer, and it won’t affect the school’s reputation.”

“Can you really solve this? This matter could be serious. If you can’t handle it, the school will find a way to help you.”

The headmaster still believed in Nan Yan, believing that there was a reason behind her actions.

Since they had been in contact, he believed he hadn’t misjudged her. Nan Yan was definitely not a bad child.

Moreover, as a medical practitioner, she must be kind-hearted! “No need. Within three days at most, public opinion will shift to others.” In Nan Yan’s indifferent voice, there was a touch of determination. Seeing her response, the headmaster vaguely guessed that there might be more to the situation than meets the eye.

“Alright, then handle it yourself first. If you can’t solve it, the school will try to find a solution.’

After all, the current Nan Yan was a student they were focusing on nurturing.

If it were the Nan Yan from before, the school wouldn’t have paid attention to this matter at all.

Nan Yan politely said ‘thank you’ and then went back to class.

Internet users had been waiting for Nan Yan to make a statement. However, from yesterday until noon today, she hadn’t shown any intention to respond at all.

Not only did she remain silent, but Zhide High School also remained quiet regarding the matter.

This irritated many internet users, and even bystanders were incited to join in, flocking to the school’s official account to criticize Nan Yan.

During lunchtime, a new video shot up on the trending search.

This time, it was an interview titled: #Adoptive Parents Speak Out About Being

Abused by Their Adopted Daughter.#

Given the high level of attention on Nan Yan’s abuse of her adoptive parents, countless people clicked into the video.

The video featured Nan Hongyang and Li Shufen.

Both of them were dressed modestly and looked worn out, especially Nan Hongyang, whose arm was in a sling, appearing quite miserable.

“Nan Yan is our adopted daughter. This matter only came to our attention two years ago. Before that, we treated her as our own daughter.”

“Later, people from An Family came and said they had initially misreported the child. Nan Yan was originally An Family’s biological daughter, and they wanted to take her back.”

“We were certainly reluctant, but in order to provide her with a better education and life, we had no choice but to endure our reluctance and send her back to An Family.”

“Over the past two years, she hasn’t come to see us even once, nor has she made a single phone call. We’ve also been worried about her. That’s why we came to Jin City to find her, but…”

Nan Hongyang and Li Shufen sobbed and cried on camera, repeatedly saying they didn’t blame Nan Yan, asking netizens not to cyberbully her anymore…

This video further incited internet users, with many now eager to vilify Nan Yan even more.

More and more people began pressuring Zhide High School, demanding Nan Yan’s expulsion.

Even the An Family was affected. Internet users attacked them, saying that the An Family members were blind to bring such a troublemaker back.

An Family.

Lu Lehua was fuming.

“I said it back then, not to bring her back. We already have Yao Yao as our daughter. But your father insisted on bringing her back! Look at all the trouble she’s caused!”

Lu Lehua was a person who valued her reputation. Seeing Nan Yan’s news stuck on the trending search and the sharp comments, her blood boiled.

“She doesn’t even show respect to me. Not only that, she dared to attack her adoptive parents who raised her for sixteen years. She’s nothing but a beast!”

Whenever Lu Lehua recalled the scene of Nan Yan hitting An Moyao, her temples pulsed with rage.

This wild and unruly child truly pushed her buttons. She might even be capable of committing murder!

“Mom, calm down. Maybe there’s more to this situation than meets the eye.” While An Mulin didn’t like Nan Yan, he didn’t believe she would attack someone without a reason.

He had seen her react several times and it was always in self-defense; she had never initiated a fight.

“What more could there be? Is someone forcing her to do it?!” Lu Lehua was furious. She picked up her phone and dialed An Yaoqing’s number.

“Husband, how are you planning to handle Nan Yan’s situation? She’s tarnishing the name of the An Family. I think it’s best to release a statement and distance ourselves from her.’

An Yaoqing furrowed his brow. He had been troubled all day because of this matter, and he didn’t know if it was related, but An Family’s stock had been fluctuating slightly.

Currently, the fluctuation wasn’t significant, but it had indeed dipped a little.

“Nan Yan still has value. Moreover, Old Master won’t agree to it.”

He hadn’t abandoned that idea yet.

Lu Lehua was losing patience. “Wake up! Nan Yan’s reputation is completely tarnished now. Who would allow such a woman into their family? Are you still hoping she’ll marry into a prestigious family?”

An Yaoqing agreed. However, severing ties shouldn’t be done casually.

“Let’s wait a bit. Let me talk to Old Master and see what his stance is. We can’t make this decision on our own.”

“Fine, then I’ll go talk to him now.”

Lu Lehua hung up the phone, called An Mulin, and left immediately with him.

After eavesdropping, An Moyao returned to her room.

Standing by the window, she watched as An Mulin drove Lu Lehua to the old residence, a smug smile creeping onto her face.

As long as Grandfather gave up on Nan Yan, she would have to leave the An Family!

Being kicked out of the An Family, Nan Yan would no longer be a threat to her.

She was digging her own grave, otherwise she could have stayed at the An Family obediently and still held the title of the Second Miss of An Family.

But now…

She would make sure Nan Yan couldn’t stay in Jin City any longer!

An Family’s old residence.

Old Master An had just woken up from his afternoon nap and was leisurely sipping tea beneath a parasol in the courtyard.

Lu Lehua and An Mulin had arrived.

Old Master An calmly took a sip of tea and asked, “Lehua, Xiaolin, what brings you here?”

“Dad, there’s something I want to discuss with you!”
