Chapter 441: Chapter 440: Just Call the Investors Over to Make the Decision!
Wan Haixiang slammed his book shut and stormed out the door, seething with anger.
At this, the classroom erupted into chaos as all the classmates turned to stare at Lu Mian, accusing her.
“Lu Mian, it’s one thing to be confrontational with us, but how could you not even spare a professor?
He’s a senior professor specially invited from the laboratory by the committee!”
“You may not study yourself, but you shouldn’t delay everyone else like this!”
“The teacher kindly reminded you to concentrate on your studies, yet you created such a scene.
Lu Mian, you’ve gone too far!”
“You should go apologize to the professor right away!”
Zhang Yanyan, hearing the chorus of scolding, quickly took out his earphones from his bag and kindly asked Lu Mian, “Do you want to listen to some music for a while?”
Lu Mian shook her head, her complexion not looking so good due to menstrual pain.
She had not expected the other party to threaten her with suspending the class, but a mistake was a mistake; there was no room for explanation in her book.
She remembered this problem very well because she had also gotten it wrong in the past, so she was very sure that the professor’s method and answer were incorrect.
Lu Mian simply sat steadily, even as the noise around her grew loud, she felt no guilt whatsoever.
Zhang Yanyan looked at his deskmate and admired her even more.
He found that she seemed somewhat divine, always serene and confident, never taking anything to heart yet capable of everything.
He couldn’t stand the reproach around him and, though not good at speaking up, still shouted, “Stop arguing, I believe Lu Mian is right.
If this problem is indeed wrong, isn’t she helping you all?”
“Then can you help us get the professor back?” someone retorted sharply.

After leaving the classroom, Wan Haixiang went straight to Bi Jun’s office, furious.
Seeing him so enraged, Bi Jun felt a chill in his heart.
They could not afford to offend such a high-level figure, so he quickly took a pleasing tone and asked, “Professor Wan, what’s the matter?
Classes haven’t ended yet; why have you come out?”
Wan Haixiang was beside himself with rage, slamming his hand on the desk as he shouted, “You go ask your star student!
After scoring first twice, she’s become too arrogant, now even I can’t teach her, right?”
Upon hearing this, Bi Jun knew what was going on.
It was definitely about Lu Mian again!
He really was troubled.
It was good that Lu Mian was excelling in her studies, but she always caused conflicts, and now she had infuriated the professor, which made him even more worried.
“Professor, please calm down.
How about I talk to her?
She is still a student, still a child.
Please don’t stoop to her level.”
“What is the duty of a student if not to study?
I could overlook her not paying attention in class, turning a blind eye.
But today she claimed the problem I set was wrong without even looking at it.
What is she trying to do, rebel?”
Wan Haixiang vented his anger in a tirade, ending with a fierce ultimatum.
“I’m putting it in plain terms here: if Lu Mian doesn’t come to apologize to me, I absolutely won’t step half a foot into that classroom again!
You can find whoever you want to replace me, but I’m done teaching!”
Bi Jun’s head was throbbing with pain, but he felt helpless and agreed, “Okay, I’ll go talk to her right now.”
Bi Jun hurried to the classroom, called Lu Mian out with a serious expression on his face.
He sighed and spoke with considerable dissatisfaction, “Lu Mian, go and apologize to Professor Wan.
Just say a few good words to the professor, and it’s all done.
Otherwise, he really won’t teach the class anymore, and that would be a loss for everyone!”
Lu Mian remained arrogantly defiant, lifting her eyes, her clear gaze meeting Bi Jun’s.
She asked lightly, “If it’s wrong, should we continue to learn it?”
Bi Jun didn’t know how to answer that question, because in his heart he didn’t believe Wan Haixiang was wrong.
Rather, it was Lu Mian being too picky, too much of a stickler.
He tried to smooth things over somewhat ineffectively, “Let’s not talk about whether the problem is right or wrong for now.
Just go apologize to Professor Wan first.
That will solve everything, won’t it?”
That was the easiest solution.
It was also the most convenient way.
The girl’s clear eyes clouded over after hearing these words, and she let out a forced laugh.

For some reason, she thought of Ding Cai, who would never act like this.
In hindsight, it seemed that only the naive and sweet teacher Ding Cai had always been wholeheartedly kind to her.
Lu Mian’s smile deepened, her complexion pale yet determined, “I don’t accept this mistake.
Whatever the consequences, let them come at me.”
“Lu Mian!” Bi Jun was also angry, “You’re really going too far this time.
A simple apology would have solved everything, so why make such a big fuss?
If Professor Wan hears what you said, he’s definitely going to be even angrier!”
In fact, Wan Haixiang had indeed heard all this.
He stood at the office door, his fingers trembling as he pulled out his phone.
“Lu Mian, you’re really something!
Let’s talk to the investors now, then!
Let them judge and decide how to deal with you!”
As he spoke, he dialed a number.
Bi Jun wanted to stop him but it was futile, he sighed deeply, “Lu Mian, you’ve really caused a big disaster this time!”
Why did Wan Haixiang want to call the investors over?
Because he had heard that the investors were in this hotel, not too far away, that’s why he dared to make such a big move.
This incident was quickly notified to Xiao Qimo.
Upon learning that Lu Mian was in trouble, Xiao Qimo immediately dropped what he was doing and left Zitan Pavilion.
——
In the classroom.
Some students were still discussing Lu Mian’s incident, causing a noisy uproar in the class.
Suddenly, someone screamed, “I just heard, Professor Wan has called the investors over!
Lu Mian is doomed now!”
When it came to the investors, the class immediately fell silent, their eyes turning to Xiu Qian.
Xiu Qian was silently working on math problems, uninterested and indifferent to the commotion.
But the class was already in an uproar.
“We won’t be unlucky because of Lu Mian, will we?
The investor has the ultimate say.
With this mess caused by Lu Mian, what if he withdraws his investment?
What if he kicks us out?”
Upon hearing the risk of being kicked out, Fang Xilan nervously clutched her ballpoint pen.
Would she be able to get a refund for her meal card?
If it was nonrefundable, she would have to ask Lu Mian for the money first!
After all, it was Lu Mian who had caused all this trouble!
However, as a die-hard fan of Xiu Qian, Qu Weiwei, seeing her deskmate remaining so composed, reassured everyone, “Don’t worry, as long as Xiu Qian is here, the investor won’t withdraw the investment.”
Everyone suddenly remembered.
“Right!
With Xiu Qian here, we’re safe!”
“Thank goodness for Xiu Qian…
I hope the investor quickly gets rid of Lu Mian, don’t let her affect us anymore!”
“Exactly, with something like this happening, it’s Lu Mian who should bear the responsibility!”
——
Xiao Qimo reached Yulan Pavilion in almost two minutes.
He moved swiftly, his long legs taking two steps at a time as he headed towards Bi Jun’s office.
As he passed by the classroom, the students could only catch a glimpse of a hurried figure, far too quick for them to get a good look at his face.
