Chapter 427 My Disciplinary Punishment hasn't been Revoked
"It all depends on how you are going to cooperate, "
Linda turned her head around and said to the principal arrogantly. With a second look at the principal's
face and body, she felt even more disgusted. His fat body seemed to have indicated how many bribes
he had taken secretly, as if each penny had eventually turned to a portion of fat inside his body.
Linda didn't want to see him even for one more second. She left the office without saying anything
more.
After they walked out of the office, Anna couldn't restrain her laughter and told Linda, "My Lady, did you
see the headmaster's face? It was as red as blood. I am so amused by his angry expression."
"He must have done a lot of other bad things behind the scenes. I will teach him a lesson after I've
punished Amber Tang, "
Linda said indifferently.
"Hmm... That's a good idea, " said Anna.
It was already noon, and Linda was hungry, so she intended to have lunch with Anna first. Since Anna
was here, Linda didn't go to the canteen of the school; they went outside for some nice restaurant.
When they reached the gate of the school, Linda noticed a familiar figure. She looked at him carefully
and found that it was John Li.
"John, " Linda shouted toward the man.
John was walking out of the store near the school gate, holding a cup of instant noodles in his hands.
He was surprised to see Linda there.
"Miss Xia, are you back to working in the school again?" asked John.
"Yes. Why are you eating instant noodles here? Why didn't you go to the canteen in the school?"
John curled his lips with embarrassment and said, "The food in the canteen taste so bad, but the Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
school demands us to pay for the meal. I don't like eating them, yet we are not allowed to leave the
school at noon time. So... here I am, buying instant noodles."
"You are still an adolescent, a growing boy. It's not good for your health to eat too much instant
noodles. Come with me. I will take you out to have lunch with us, " said Linda.
It was the written rule that students were not permitted to go out of the school at noon, not unless with
a proper reason. Since John was going out together with Linda, the security guard at the gate didn't
stop him.
There were quite a lot of restaurants near the school. Linda chose a cleaner restaurant and entered
one of the private rooms in it.
They sat down and ordered some dishes. Linda specially asked John to order some of his favourite
food. Then, Linda asked him, "How are your studies going? Have you been getting good grades?"
John's eyes flickered with pride and answered, "Yes. I ranked first place of the whole Senior Grade
Three during the mock examination."
"First place? Amazing! You should be able to get a good recommendation to enter college, " marvelled
Linda.
Every high school had merits of recommendation for deserving students. Basically, the top students of
each school could be sent to universities on recommendation, and some of them would be exempted
from taking the college entrance examination. When Linda heard that John was doing great in school,
she felt relieved. She was initially worried that John might have abandoned his studies again after she
had left.
But John turned his proud face to melancholy when he heard Linda mention the word
"recommendation". He sighed and said, "Miss Xia, I won't have the chance to get a recommendation.
My disciplinary punishment hasn't been revoked. Even if I want to enter an average college, there is a
good chance that they won't accept me."
Linda said with shock, "How could that happen? I had already investigated your case before I left the
school. I had also cleared your name to the school. Why hasn't your punishment been revoked yet?"
John shook his head and said, "They've left the matter unsettled after you left the school. I have
submitted my appeal to dismiss the punishment to my head teacher, but my head teacher said that she
had handed it to the superiors of the school, but they haven't approved my application. They said that
they needed to look more into the event. It's May now, and close to June. The college entrance
examination is coming soon. I think they are deliberately delaying it."
Linda frowned with anger as she heard John talk about it. She thought that Amber Tang must have had
something to do with it. Amber was also involved in the event of Linda going missing. It was so easy for
Amber to bring trouble to John after Linda had disappeared from the school. Moreover, at that time, in
order to seek justice for John, Linda had scolded Amber in front of other people.
Amber must have felt so humiliated about it, so she tried to torture John while Linda was absent from
school.
Did Amber know what was the most important thing for a student who had worked hard for so many
years? It was to pass the college entrance examination and enter a college he liked. Because of the
disciplinary punishment on him, John might not be able to enter a college even if his scores were good
enough to pass the exam. What an injustice to John!
"Don't worry. I will help you solve it in one week. Now, have your lunch first, " said Linda.
Linda didn't expect that Amber would overdo things like that. The punishment had already made John
suffer a lot, almost ruining his promising life. Linda thought she had already taken care of it. But Amber
still carried on the punishment on John. She had indeed gone overboard.
A teacher like her dared want to attain a senior professional title? Did she even know what ethics
meant? Why were there so many immoral people in the school? Linda felt so disappointed.
But she had to admit to the fact that there were all kinds of people in the world. It was true even in the
school. Some of the teachers regarded their occupations as something very holy, While some of them
took it as a tool to earn money and fame.
If immoral people entered the education industry, it would be a really great disaster to the country.
"Thank you, Miss Xia. I heard that you left the school because of your pregnancy. I was afraid that I
wouldn't be able to see you again before I would graduate. Luckily, I've met you again, " said John.
Linda didn't want to tell John about the true story of her leaving the school. After all, John was still a
teenager.
"Yes, I am back for good. Don't worry about anything. If you come across any trouble, just come tell
me. I am in the same office as before."
John's eyes brightened up with excitement.
With a better look at John, Linda now noticed that John had become more handsome in the past
months. He was taller, and his skin has whitened.
He would be very popular among girls in a few years.
"Miss Xia, can I touch your belly and say hello to the baby?"
John asked hesitantly as he looked at Linda's big belly.
"Yes, of course, you can." A pregnant woman was always full of motherly love in her heart. When Linda
heard John's words, she immediately waved at him and beckoned him to come over to her.
John's hands trembled as he slightly touched Linda's belly.
"Many years ago, my mother was also pregnant with my little sister. Her belly was as big as yours. But
she didn't allow me to touch her belly. I suppose that she might have watched too much negative news,
so she was afraid that I would treat my sister badly, " John said with a bitter smile.
"Really? You have a younger sister?" Linda asked.
"Yes, but my parents have left me alone ever since my sister's birth..."
John said casually. But Linda felt so sympathetic for him.
