I Refused to Be a Substitute, and Shot to Fame on a Variety Show With My Mother-In-Law - Chapter 55

55 Mind Is About to Collapse

Li Xiwu shouted, “You’an.”

Pei You’an reluctantly stepped forward. Under Chi Xia’s surprised gaze, he slowly said, “I’ve reflected on my mistake. This mistake was that I shouldn’t have accepted your love letter.”

The form teacher pulled a long face. “Rascal, you’re still stubborn, right? You were the one who wrote nonsense to Chi Xia.”

Pei You’an was furious. “She didn’t do anything wrong. It’s my fault. I shouldn’t have been in her class.”

!!
The form teacher glared at Pei You’an. “Is this how you apologize?”

At this moment, Chi Xia said, “Pei You’an, I’ve only tutored you twice in English. I didn’t expect my good intentions to cause me trouble. Actually, I caused this myself. It has nothing to do with you…”

One moment, she said that she was not in the wrong, and the next moment, she blamed herself. Pei You’an felt like his mind was about to collapse. This girl was poisonous.

The form teacher’s heart ached for Chi Xia. She turned around and said angrily, “Pei You’an, apologize properly. Otherwise, you will be expelled from school if the matter is serious.”

Expel? Pei You’an wanted to laugh. His father invested ten million yuan a year in the Fourth High School. It must have been fed to the dogs, right? How dare they expel him!

When Chi Xia heard from her form teacher that it was so serious that they were about to expel Pei You’an, her expression turned anxious. “Mr. Yang, I accept Pei You’an’s apology.”

Although this matter had escalated to the point of calling parents, Chi Xia definitely did not want Pei You’an to be expelled. It wasn’t that she was afraid of being exposed. Since she dared to do so, she wasn’t afraid. However, she was afraid that Pei You’an would leave school. That way, she would not be able to see him! She had taken a fancy to Pei You’an, so he would always be hers.

The form teacher sighed and said earnestly, “Pei You’an, listen to this. Chi Xia is so understanding. She’s afraid that you’ll really be expelled, but look at you! What kind of person are you!”

Li Xiwu glanced sideways at Pei You’an. After receiving Li Xiwu’s gaze, Pei You’an let out a shaky breath and finally accepted his fate. “I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have written such nonsense for you. I already realized that such behavior has caused you a lot of trouble. I’m sorry, Chi Xia.”

This time the apology was sincere. After Chi Xia’s surprise, a hint of smugness flashed across her eyes. She thought that no one had seen her. After adjusting her expression, she said gently, “Pei You’an, since you’ve apologized, let’s forget about this matter.”

Pei You’an snorted. Li Xiwu patted Pei You’an’s arm gently. Pei You’an’s heart warmed. At this moment, Li Xiwu said, “Chi Xia, thank you for your understanding. Don’t worry, such a thing will never happen again.”

Chi Xia smiled. “Sister is sensible.”

Li Xiwu raised an eyebrow. After Chi Xia called her sister, she turned to look at Pei You’an. When she saw Pei You’an’s avoidant gaze, the smile on Chi Xia’s face gradually disappeared. “Pei You’an!” Her voice was neither loud nor soft, but it sounded sinister to Pei You’an.

He looked at Chi Xia. “I’ve already apologized. What else do you want?”

Chi Xia said, “Let’s forget about this matter. If there’s a need in the future, I’ll still forget about the past and tutor you in English.”

Pei You’an snorted. “I…”

Li Xiwu grabbed Pei You’an’s wrist. “You’an, go in and apologize to the teachers again. Guarantee that you’ll study hard in the future and have a proper attitude.”

Pei You’an: “?”

Li Xiwu smiled. “Go.”

Pei You’an: “…”

Although he didn’t understand, he listened to Li Xiwu. The form teacher wanted to say that there was no need, but Pei You’an’s parents were so sincere that he could not reject them.

After Pei You’an entered, Li Xiwu said to Chi Xia, “Hurry up and go back to class.”

Chi Xia was not suspicious. She turned around and went back to class. Before she left, she did not forget to say, “Sister, I’ll leave first.”

Li Xiwu nodded.

After Chi Xia left, Li Xiwu entered the office. “Miss Yang, You’an’s temper has been easily irritable since he was young. This matter has caused you trouble. This time, I want to apply for leave for him. I’ll let him go back and adjust his emotions before reflecting on himself.”

Pei You’an looked flattered!

The form teacher did not want to let him go. After all, the time to prepare for the college entrance examination was precious now. However, Pei You’an’s parents’ attitude could not be found fault with from the beginning to the end. It would be unreasonable if they did not agree.

After all, she was not the one who mediated the situation. How big of a fuss would this matter be? It would save her the process of writing a self-reflection letter. Moreover, tomorrow was Saturday. No matter how unwilling she was, she only nodded in agreement. “Alright, Pei You’an. Go back and study hard.”

Li Xiwu did not ask Pei You’an to return to the classroom to get his bag. Pei You’an walked out of school with Li Xiwu with his head lowered. Until he got into Li Xiwu’s car, he still felt unreal.

Li Xiwu said, “Still doesn’t feel real?”

Pei You’an came back to his senses and lowered his head. “Sister-in-law, you’re really closer than my biological mother.”

Li Xiwu smiled brightly. “I’m tired of hearing you call me ‘Mother’.”

Pei You’an immediately raised his head. “Who else calls you that?”

Li Xiwu said, “Many.”

Pei You’an treated it as a joke and calmed down. As he fastened his seatbelt, he asked, “Sister-in-law, why did you help me take a day off? I didn’t even take my bag.”

Li Xiwu’s expression darkened. “Prepare to transfer schools.”

Pei You’an, who was fastening his seatbelt, was stunned. “Transfer?”

Li Xiwu said, “Yeah.”

Pei You’an’s small head was filled with confusion. He felt like he was in the clouds. The moment his sister-in-law arrived at school, she resolved this matter through the most effective and simplest method. Although he had suffered a little, compared to letting his father and brother know, this little grievance was nothing.

But now that the matter had been resolved, Sister-in-law actually said that she wanted him to prepare to transfer schools??

Pei You’an could not understand.

Li Xiwu asked him, “Has Chi Xia been harassing you for a long time?”

Pei You’an was surprised. “Sister-in-law, how did you know?”

Li Xiwu inhaled. “You just said that she chased you and pestered you.”

Pei You’an was speechless. It did seem like he had said it himself.

But harassment was indeed more appropriate. There were many girls chasing him. Chi Xia was the only girl who was very clingy, but she was the kind of clinginess that others could not see.

Li Xiwu’s tone was calm. “Combining this matter, my current suggestion is that you’d better transfer schools as soon as possible. Don’t go back to school for the time being. I’ll discuss the process of your transfer with your brother. It’ll be as soon as possible. Sigh, that’s why it’s better to go to a noble school. How can people born in Rome learn to run with ordinary people?”

Pei You’an looked at Li Xiwu’s serious expression and recalled the extreme things Chi Xia had done to him during this period of time. He did not notice it at the time, but now that he thought about it, it was terrifying.

He suddenly understood why his sister-in-law wanted him to apologize and transfer schools as soon as possible.
