Chapter 102: Recording

As soon as He Jing revealed the truth, those students who had formed certain thoughts regarding the strange situation wore looks of disdain.

Changing the door locks and then blaming He Jing for not seeing her… What kind of peerless weirdo was she?

Ye Shuping had raised He Jing as if she were her daughter for over ten years, yet now she guarded against her as if she were a thief. No wonder He Jing had to ring the doorbell before entering what was once her home.

Cheng Yi choked in embarrassment. He Jing was telling the truth. Ye Shuping had changed the door locks when the truth came out that He Jing was not her daughter. Knowing nothing she said could remedy the situation and fearing that further debate would worsen things, Cheng Yi hastily changed the subject.

“I’m very sorry about Manman. I was in a bad mood that day and did not want to answer her call. The school has already rescinded Manman’s punishment, and she has also learned her lesson. She even wrote a 10,000-word reflection, which she will read aloud during the flag-raising ceremony next Monday…”

“He Jing, can you find it in yourself to forgive Manman? If not for her, then on my behalf?”

He Jing was not surprised by what Cheng Yi had accomplished behind the scenes; it was the only way she could save her reputation. She just had not expected her to act so quickly. Cheng Yi’s sudden illness made more sense now.

Cheng Yi’s words swayed the students’ hearts.

Kind-hearted people were less likely to judge others with malice. Perhaps it had all been a misunderstanding?

“How does what Zhang Man did relate to you?” One of the students asked.

The whole class had heard what Zhang Man had said that day. Of course, they could not rule out the possibility that Zhang Man had cooked up the story and wanted to drag Cheng Yi down with her if she was going to be expelled.

Cheng Yi’s eyelashes quivered, and her eyes turned red. “Please, believe me! How could I do such a thing? After the incident, Manman apologized, saying she should not have blamed me for her actions. She said what she did out of impulse and fear that she would be expelled from Yin High School. Here. I recorded her words for anyone who wants to hear it for themself.”

He Jing glanced at Shen Qiuyu. Shen Qiuyu crossed his arms in front of his chest and had an arrogant attitude that said, ‘Go ahead! Let’s see if you can wash away your sins!’ “Play it,” he said.

Cheng Yi took out her phone and said, “This is the recording of our conversation via WeChat.”

In the recording, Zhang Man apologized to Cheng Yi in all seriousness, claiming that all she said in class was nonsense.

She also insinuated that her loss of control was because He Jing had misled her.

The students looked at He Jing differently.

That’s right. That day, Zhang Man had only wanted He Jing to let her go. After He Jing’s few words of provocation, the situation inexplicably changed. In that case…

Then, the dishonest one was not Cheng Yi, but…

He Jing smiled faintly. “I never expected you to be the sort to record conversations on your phone, Cheng Yi. Even if you lost a huge sum of money because of online fraud, you’ll still recover in time, using the Cheng family’s legal team to sue the other party into bankruptcy. Now that Zhang Man has returned to school, the matter is over. Does it matter whether I forgive you or

That’s right.

Why would she record a conversation on WeChat?

Cheng Yi had gone so far as to have Zhang Man return to school and ask He Jing’s forgiveness.

So what? It was not like He Jing could have Zhang Man expelled from Yin High School just because she did not forgive her. Wasn’t everything decided by Cheng Yi, the real daughter of the Cheng family?

Silence filled the air.

Wu Yu could not stand it anymore and urged He Jing, “Sister Jing, let’s go.”

He Jing nodded, placing the fruit basket on the coffee table.

The group was about to leave when Cheng Yi coughed violently.

Then, they heard the housekeeper call out anxiously, “Miss..” Before anyone could react, Ye Shuping rushed out of the room and cried in a panic, “Xiao Yi!”
