Reborn Heiress: Seeking Revenge-Chapter 56 Apology Like This_1

"That’s right, Youyou, we’ll vouch for you!" Zhu Li, exceptionally excited within the crowd, cried out, supporting Youyou unconditionally in whatever she did.

"Indeed, all of us present here, as well as the viewing audience in front of their TVs, are willing to testify for you," Gui Mo’s voice, tinged with a smile, rang out, as if encouraging the situation to escalate.

"A teacher without a sense of responsibility, a teacher who doesn’t dare to take responsibility for his own words and actions, doesn’t have the qualifications to educate students. Such a teacher will only lead students astray."

Yang Liwen’s body shook violently a few times, and with trembling lips, he stood up from his seat. He strode towards the stage.

"I hereby offer student Shangguan You a solemn apology. For my past statements that severely affected her mental and physical health, as well as the interests of the school, I solemnly say, ’I am sorry.’ My actions violated school regulations and posed a serious threat to the interests of both the school and its students. Starting today, I am resigning to take full responsibility for my words and actions." Yang Liwen took several deep breaths and, with difficulty, spoke word by word. Facing Shangguan You and everyone else, he bowed deeply. In the flash of all the cameras, his face showed clear shame before he rushed out of the lecture hall.

This humiliating incident, an event that brought him nationwide infamy, was the most shameful moment of Yang Liwen’s life. He had truly shot himself in the foot.

"Good! That’s what a teacher should be like: admitting when you’re wrong, not deserting your post or running away in denial."

As Yang Liwen left, all the cameras once again swept over Shen Jia, Li Ruo, Liao Sisi, and Gao Yuanyuan, also capturing their parents on screen for the vast audience to see clearly. "Is that Mr. and Mrs. Shen of Shen Pharmaceuticals? I never expected their daughter to be such a person. In the future, it would be best to avoid business partners like them."

"Exactly! If the daughter lacks integrity, it’s likely the parents do too. It seems we can’t dine at the Li Family’s restaurant anymore. With such character, it’s evident their restaurant probably passes off inferior goods as quality ones."

As more and more people began discussing loudly, the faces of Shen Jia and the others turned as pale as paper. Not only were their reputations in tatters, but their family businesses were also facing competitive repercussions due to their daughters’ character issues.

"Jia, go apologize!"

"Ruo, go apologize!"

"Yuanyuan, hurry up!"

"Sisi, you must go on stage and apologize today, or our Liao family will be finished—ruined at your hands!"

Considering the bigger picture, the parents of the four girls issued stern commands almost simultaneously. If this commotion continued, not only would their daughters be ruined, but so would their family businesses.

Let’s go. If we just admit our mistake, everything will be fine.

The four exchanged glances. Their steps were wobbly and their lips trembled as they reluctantly walked toward the area with the most cameras. Their hands were clenched tightly together; despite their unwillingness and, even more so, their profound embarrassment, they had no choice but to move step by step toward the stage where Shangguan You stood, her expression cold.

"I’m sorry. From now on, we won’t appear before you again," Shen Jia said, her voice strained as if through gritted teeth.

"I’m sorry. I will withdraw from school and keep a wide berth from you if I see you," Li Ruo said, her voice slightly panicked.

"I’m sorry. We will take a detour whenever we see you in the future," Liao Sisi said, her voice trembling slightly.

"I’m sorry. I won’t dare to do it again," Gao Yuanyuan said, her voice sounding close to tears.

As the four finished speaking, more whispered conversations rippled through the audience.

Why were Shen Jia and the others so afraid of Shangguan You? Just moments ago, before the exam, they had seemed so pleased to watch the drama unfold. Yet, in the blink of an eye, their expressions had changed, as if Shangguan You had bullied them. However, all the reports, and even their wager, were laid bare for everyone to see. Was their current demeanor of any use? Moreover, the once sensational controversy surrounding a "4P" event resurfaced in the minds of many journalists. The reporters from Genesis Media, in particular, had a keen glint in their eyes, ready to create another sensational story at the opportune moment. freeweɓnovēl.coɱ

"Heh heh." Shangguan You chuckled softly at the four’s misleading demeanor. She wasn’t angry; instead, a unique Spiritual Energy emanated from her, and a noble temperament radiated from her composed actions, compelling everyone to look up to her in awe.

"I took this exam again, publicly, before the entire nation, because I wanted to prove to you—to all the students who didn’t believe in me, to everyone who doubted the teaching quality of our No. 1 High School—that my grades were entirely the result of my own hard work, not obtained by buying exam papers as you claimed. Now, I have done so." Shangguan You’s clear voice filled the air. She paused, facing all the cameras with confidence, beauty, and grace. "As for the apologies from Teacher Yang Liwen and the rest of you, I accept them."

Her voice continued, resonating brightly, "I have proven my worth and shown that everything I achieved was through my own efforts. Therefore, the previous bet is void. You may continue your education at No. 1 High School, and likewise, Teacher Yang Liwen can continue to teach here." Her words earned the unanimous admiration of many, perfectly embodying the principle of being gracious in victory and resilient in defeat.

Shangguan You’s petite figure seemed to grow taller in the hearts of all the television viewers. As her words concluded, many in the lecture hall shouted their approval, their admiration for the young girl deepening. To face her slanderers so calmly, knowing that if her willpower hadn’t been strong enough, their words could have utterly ruined her life—and yet, before the entire nation, she chose to embrace all their faults with such a magnanimous heart.

Such magnanimity, such breadth of spirit, was not something just anyone could achieve.

The lecture hall erupted in thunderous applause. Shangguan You stood before them all, a light smile on her face, her bright eyes shining, the very picture of grace. This image was etched deeply into everyone’s mind.

Through this vindication, Shangguan You became an idol for many young men, the dream girl in their hearts.

「At the Qing Gang headquarters.」

Li Lan watched Shangguan You’s enchanting figure on television and cried out, "This is my Young Miss! This is the proud elegance that truly defines her!"

Both Li Qing and Zhong Mingyang felt immense pride. At such a young age, she could face the entire nation without batting an eye, possessing such extraordinary composure and bearing.
