Mo Shiyun also knew that if she lent the money to Qiu Yizhen right now, she probably wouldn’t be able to get it back in a short period of time.

And thus, Mo Shiyun hesitated before responding.

“Shiyun?” Qiu Yizhen asked. She was still waiting on the other end of the line for Mo Shiyun’s response.

Mo Shiyun sounded quite awkward as she said, “Sister Qiu, you know that I’m in a lot of trouble right now. I really need the money. Furthermore, I only have two thousand dollars. It wouldn’t be of much help to you. However, if you need my help in any other way, I will definitely help you.”

Qiu Yizhen was quite disappointed when she heard Mo Shiyun’s response. However, she knew that she couldn’t blame Mo Shiyun.

She knew that Mo Shiyun had her own difficulties and problems to deal with.

However, upon hearing the response, she was still sad.

Qiu Yizhen assumed that the Mo family’s lawsuit wouldn’t be filed right away. And furthermore, she just wanted to borrow the money for a few days only.

Jian Yiling was called to the office by the Head of Teaching.

“Jian Yiling, what’s wrong with you? Do you know how old you are? And you’re dating already? Do you not know that dating will affect your studies? It will also damage the school’s reputation at the same time!”

Teacher Li got angry as soon as he saw Jian Yiling.

Shenghua High School already had enough trouble to deal with recently. There was already a scandal with the school’s chairman. The Board members had held several major meetings to deal with these matters. They already had to deal with public relations and lawsuits.

And now, Jian Yiling was still trying to make matters worse for them? Why was she still trying to cause trouble for the school?

No wonder Qin Chuan kept defending Jian Yiling last time! Back then, he knew that something was fishy!

“Why don’t you learn from Mo Shiyun? She’s also a student from Shenghua High School. Why is there such a big difference between you two?”

After the last chemistry competition, the Head of Teaching had paid special attention to Jian Yiling’s grades.

However, he found out that her homework and papers still had many incorrect answers. Chemistry was not an exception from this.

And thus, the Head of Teaching was convinced that Jian Yiling had cheated in the chemistry competition. Jian Yiling’s award was just a show put on by the rich and powerful.

The head of the Yao Li Chemistry and Advanced Materials Research Institution was also from a rich and powerful family. As a result, he was likely to not be a serious academic either.

As the Head of Teaching was in the middle of his speech, his office door suddenly opened.

The Head of Teaching glanced at the door. He saw a striking-looking young man walk through the door. He was followed by a group of men in suits.

“Who are you? This is the school. This is my office. How can you barge in without saying a word? Where are the security guards?”

Zhai Yunsheng didn’t say anything. Instead, he walked over and sat down in the Head of Teaching’s chair.

His actions were slow and arrogant.

At the same time, his eyes fell on Jian Yiling. Jian Yiling was standing in front of him. As he looked at her, he started to unconsciously frown.

“Who the hell are you? I’ll call the security guards right now!”

Just as the Head of Teaching was about to step forward, he was stopped by Zhai Yunsheng’s bodyguards.

“Do you guys disregard the law of something?” the Head of Teaching said as he pulled out his phone. He was ready to call the police.

Yu Xi had come into the room late. He quickly explained the situation to the Head of Teaching, “Don’t shout anymore. Master Sheng just became a member of the Board at Shenghua High School.”

Because of the incident with Qiu Liyao and Qiu Yizhen, Shenghua High School was in a crisis. Many of their shareholders wanted to sell or transfer their shares.

And this, Zhai Yunsheng had taken the opportunity to buy a large number of the Shenghua High School shares. By doing so, Master Sheng had become a shareholder of Shenghua High School. Then, at a meeting, the Board had agreed for him to join as a member.

The Board saw Master Sheng as a savior.

Having Master Sheng as a shareholder would bring them a lot of benefits.

A man leaning against a big tree can enjoy the shade that it provides.

The Head of Teaching who was just about to make a phone call immediately stopped in his tracks.
