Chapter 222: My Foster Daughter Is A Bad Student

The look in the Principal’s eyes altered slightly when he heard Lu Xia’s explanation. His lips curved into a smile and he walked over to the window with his hands behind him.

“I’d like to know what your father thinks of this matter,” replied the Principal indifferently.

Lu Xia looked at the Principal’s back and could not help feeling slightly uneasy. But then she thought about her father’s text and relaxed again.

Wei Mingzhe contemplated before pitching in. “Shall we call Huo Yao over to clarify things as well?”

Did Wei Mingzhe want to see her getting maligned by both her foster father and sister?

The Principal kept gazing outside the window without even turning around. He replied in a deep voice. “There’s no need.”

Lu Xia let go of her tightly clenched hands when she heard the Principal.

Before long, her father arrived at the school. He entered the office with a bright smile on his squarish face. “Sorry, I was caught in a jam.”

Lu Xia wanted to speak up, but her father glanced at her, gesturing at her to stay calm.

He had met the Principal before. Looking at him now, he said apologetically, “I’m so sorry that my foster daughter’s actions caused such a commotion at school. In reality...”

Everything he said sounded similar to what Lu Xia had expressed, but it just felt more credible when it came from him. Especially when he was talking about how badly Huo Yao performed at her previous school.

“To be honest, my foster daughter always stood last in the previous school but she insisted on participating in the National Quiz Contest. Hence, I committed a folly and helped her cheat,” confessed Lu Xia’s father with his head lowered, seeming to be particularly remorseful.

The Principal looked at him, and an inconspicuous look of mockery emerged on his face. Just as Mr. Lu was about to continue with his charade, he asked him in a mild manner. “Mr. Lu, are you saying that Huo Yao performed badly at school?”

Lu Xia’s father was taken aback at the change in topic but he nodded in affirmative. “That’s right. Honestly, she only made it into high school because I pulled some strings.”

Anyone with a discerning eye could tell that he was trying to imply that Huo Yao got into high school because of his influence.

Wei Mingzhe was hoping that Mr. Lu could prove that he did not wrongly accuse a student, but his brows scrunched up tighter and tighter as he listened to the man.

It was one thing if Huo Yao cheated during the National Quiz Contest, but paying to get her a high school placement was a different matter... It was starting to sound deliberately malicious now.

Lu Xia immediately realized her father had said the wrong thing when she noticed the strange look on the Principal and Wei Mingzhe’s faces.

She had not told her father how Huo Yao had been performing excellently ever since she entered the school.

Lu Xia’s lips parted, but the Principal’s voice beat her into silence. “That’s such a strange coincidence since I had a hard time getting Huo Yao to come to No.1 Middle School.”

Mr. Lu was stunned. “Erm... How can that be? Are you joking? With those terrible grades of hers...”

Since No.1 Middle School was one of the top five middle schools out of thousands in the country, only the elites could get in.

However, the Principal just implied that he went out of his way to get Huo Yao to enter the school.

It sounded absolutely ludicrous and made no sense. Mr. Lu was sure about Huo Yao’s potential despite paying little attention to her grades.

The Principal was so angry that he laughed. A look of sarcasm emerged on his stern face. “Mr. Lu, are you saying I don’t even have the basic judgment despite being the principal of No.1 Middle School?”
