"Then what about the student who's the least diligent?" Gao Qingxue asked urgently. "This... this!" Song Sian hesitated. "Don't be vague—just say it plainly!" Gao Qingxue wasn't willing to beat around the bush. Song Sian felt caught between two stools, with the dean signaling him subtly. As he was about to stammer his way through, the notification on his phone sounded. He checked it, his face paling, and hurriedly waved to the other shareholders before rushing off. This was a completely new endeavor, carried out under the guidance and instructions of the school's board of directors. Gao Liang sat casually on his desk, his expression indifferent, glancing here and there. This was his very first exam at Saint Dorothy Business School—something he had never taken seriously before, and his assignments had been almost entirely completed by his classmate, Gao Ruolan. In fact, since Gao Ruolan had once gifted him a karate DVD, she had started doing the assignments herself again. After all, for someone who had once been the top student in the entire business school, receiving a formal reprimand felt like a wound inflicted upon otherwise healthy skin. As Gao Liang stared at these increasingly unfamiliar questions, he scratched his head and rubbed his arms, utterly puzzled—what could he do? He glanced over at Gao Ruolan on his left, who was now deeply focused on her work, writing swiftly and neatly on the exam paper. Her writing was always clear and precise, and her answers fluent—this was the consistent evaluation of her work, even from Qiu Xingyue, the new class president who had only recently taken office. Now turning to the autumn fragrance, Qiu Xin Yue is also concentrating intently on her exam questions, her thoughts clear and her handwriting neat—clearly, her foundation is solid. Surveying the classroom, students are all hunched over their papers, quiet and focused, the only sound being the rustling of pens on the answer sheets. What to do? If she leaves it blank, how could she face her parents? Especially with her father, Gao Zhongming, who has promised to reclaim the 10-million-yuan credit card she’s been using. She simply couldn’t bear it. She decided to copy—copy—copy. Determined to test her resolve, she quietly glanced at Qiu Xin Yue on the right, who was deeply immersed in her answers, and slowly moved toward Gao Ruolan on the left. To her relief, she managed to catch the answers to the first ten multiple-choice questions. Gao Liang, known for his exceptional memory, quickly filled in the answers with a steady stream of A, B, C, and D. Haha! Gao Liang laughed to himself. With confidence restored, he began copying the short-answer questions as well, and then moved on to the essay questions. This is Gao Liang's most genuine reaction. He was so deeply immersed in his copying that he didn't even notice when Qiu Xingyue's voice came through: "Teacher, he cheated on the exam! He violated school rules—what should be done?" Gao Liang looked up in surprise—what on earth? Without realizing it, Song Si'an had arrived and was caught red-handed. How could this be? With no one supervising, the teacher had directly caught him! Someone must have reported it. Seeing Qiu Xingyue's triumphant expression, Gao Liang immediately erupted. "You're a complete fool! You're a real administrator—what a disaster!" He didn't wait for Song Si'an to respond, launching straight into this, drawing all the students' attention. Only then did Gao Ruolan lift her head, looking at them in astonishment. "The Dragon—last time he had someone write his assignments, now he's cheating on the exam again. According to school regulations, what should we do, Teacher?" Qiu Xingyue turned to Song Si'an, who seemed uncertain, and asked. Su Songan was at a loss when he saw the principal leading a well-dressed middle-aged man into the classroom. The man wore a crisp, high-end suit, looking very spirited, with two young secretaries—male and female—following behind. At first glance, it was clear that this person came from a distinguished background. Songan looked at the principal with a pleading gaze, who quickly introduced the man. With due respect, Songan said to the man, "Good morning, Mr. Qiu, Chairman of the Board!" Mr. Qiu Zhengxiong nodded slightly and scanned the room with a sharp, attentive gaze, then asked the principal only, "What's going on?" Under the principal's guidance, Songan then calmly and honestly reported the situation. Mr. Qiu Zhengxiong's expression darkened, and he said to the principal, "What does the school's regulations say? This matter is up to you." "According to the school's rules, students caught cheating during exams are immediately expelled. However, this student's father is one of our school's major shareholders and has made significant contributions to our school's development." Mr. Qi, I think it's still...” The principal smiled apologetically. Before Mr. Qi Zhengxiong could speak, Ms. Gao Qingxue had already rushed over, knowing the situation. She nodded politely to Mr. Qi, offering a professional, business-like smile that gently melted away some of the frost on his face. In front of everyone, she said, “Mr. Qi, it’s all my fault—I didn’t properly guide this brother who’s so careless about his studies!” Then, turning to Gao Liang, she said firmly, “This is our new Mr. Qi, please go and apologize to him right away!” Under his sister’s intense gaze, Gao Liang reluctantly apologized to Mr. Qi, yet kept glancing sideways at Qi Xinxiumo, who was watching with a satisfied, triumphant expression. At that moment, Teacher Song Sigan smiled warmly and said respectfully to Mr. Qi Zhengxiong, “Mr. Qi, actually, Ou has been quite good in general—just a bit of a playboy, with a good heart. With a little proper guidance, he can certainly grow into a talent.” Gao Qingxue looked at Song Sigan with heartfelt gratitude; when their eyes met, both of them unexpectedly lowered their heads. "Yes! Yes! Song Teacher is absolutely right! My teaching philosophy is never to give up on any student," the principal interjected. "But this isn't something I can decide on my own. We need to convene the school board, study it thoroughly, and then make a decision!" Autumn Chengxiong shook his hand, saying. "Our school regulations are clear: any student found guilty of submitting assignments or cheating on exams will be immediately expelled. I'm requesting that Ouang be expelled right away!" Autumn Xingyue showed no face-saving, making it clear to everyone that Autumn Xingyue and Gao Liang had some underlying issues. Although Zhao Meixuan and Xu Xinyan were formally supporting Autumn Xingyue, they were privately concerned about Gao Liang's future. Autumn Chengxiong's expression darkened. He raised his hand decisively and said, "Let's convene the board immediately!" "After saying that, she stepped out among the crowd, with the principal, Song Sian, and Gao Qingxue following closely behind. Autumn Xin Yue's fiery actions and her triumphant, gloating expressions left Gao deeply annoyed, nearly making him lose his temper—though he was gently restrained by his sister, Gao Ruolan. Yet Autumn Xin Yue remained undaunted, saying, 'You know, someone can be dismissed on the spot for physical misconduct! Hit me! Hit me! See how long you can hold out!' Yet, though that may be said, rules are rigid while people are ever-changing. After all, through the appeals of Gao Qingxue, the principal, Song Si'an, and the other major shareholders, Gao Liang was ultimately allowed to stay away from school for three months, to find private tutors at home. A dedicated evaluator will then assess him after three months; if he fails to meet the standards, he will not be permitted to return. The news reached Gao Liang and his classmates immediately, who deeply regretted it, with many more expressing sorrow that their idol would be leaving campus. Yet, when Gao Liang, facing Qiu Xinxue who had just returned to the classroom with a mournful expression, simply threw his backpack outside and shouted, "I'm free! I'm finally expelled!" his unusual behavior drew everyone's attention. At the Western Paradise Temple, the Buddha sat cross-legged on his throne, addressing the Bodhisattva Guanyin in the hall: "How has the matter of testing Subhuti progressed?" "Your Holiness," replied Guanyin respectfully, "Subhuti has already been expelled from the campus!"
