Chapter 089 【The Truth Isn’t Like This?】

Xu Qin was notorious for her strictness at Maplewood High School. When she personally called an emergency meeting, none of the other teachers dared to slack off.

Within five minutes, nearly all the teachers had arrived at the school's conference hall.

The meeting room fell into silence. Gazing at Xu Qin's frosty expression, none of the teachers below dared to speak.

Gu Feng and the other teachers in the office all glared coldly at Hu Hua.

Beads of cold sweat formed on Hu Hua's forehead before he knew it. He instinctively wiped the sweat from his brow and nervously glanced at Xu Qin.

"Everyone," Xu Qin began, her voice devoid of any emotion. "I've called this emergency meeting to inform you of a very serious matter!"

As she spoke, her secretary closed the curtains in the meeting room, plunging the entire space into darkness.

"Please direct your attention to the large screen," Xu Qin said coldly, then nodded to her secretary.

At Xu Qin's words, everyone turned their gaze toward the television screen in the meeting room.

Amidst the expectant expressions of the crowd, a scene flashed onto the screen.

The scene showed a very elegant private dining room. Inside, Hu Hua held a wine glass, swaying slightly while leering at Guan Mingyue in the distance. He said with a lecherous smile, "Don't run, sweetie. Come to big brother, I'll treat you right."

Seeing this, the expressions of everyone present instantly darkened!

Among them, Hu Hua's face turned as pale as paper, all the blood drained from his face. His eyes widened in disbelief, as if he couldn't believe the scene on the screen was real.

Simultaneously, including Gu Feng, everyone glared furiously at Hu Hua!

Hu Hua tried to say something, but it seemed as if something was stuck in his throat; he was utterly speechless.

However, the Hu Hua on the screen suddenly put down his wine glass, spread his arms, and lunged toward Guan Mingyue. A lewd smile was plastered on his face as he muttered the words "my little darling."

On the screen, Guan Mingyue seemed terrified, her face filled with fear and helplessness. Watching Hu Hua lunge at her, she hastily dodged while letting out a frightened scream!

"Bastard!" Seeing this, Qi Hui finally couldn't hold back and cursed.

At the same time, Xu Qin signaled to her secretary to turn off the video and switched on the main lights in the meeting room.

Under the lights, all the teachers glared angrily at Hu Hua.

Cold sweat soaked through Hu Hua's shirt. He wiped the sweat from his forehead while standing up in panic.

"Principal Xu, I... I..." Hu Hua tried to explain, but under the gaze of dozens of eyes, he didn't know how to explain.

Xu Qin gave Hu Hua a cold glance, then swept her gaze over everyone present. She said slowly, "The man in the footage, everyone has seen. Most of you probably don't recognize that girl. Her name is Guan Mingyue, and she is a student at our Maplewood High School!"

"What? A student at Maplewood High School?" At that moment, almost all the teachers were stunned!

Some teachers had originally thought it was just a recording of Hu Hua fooling around outside. They never expected the girl to be a student at Maplewood High School!

"Beast!"

"Bastard!"

Immediately, almost all the teachers in the meeting room angrily cursed Hu Hua.

"E-everyone!" Hu Hua took a deep breath, trying his best to control his emotions. Then, facing the dozens of angry gazes, he said, "Things aren't what you think!"

"Then what are they?" Gu Feng spoke up, his brows tightly knitted together, his eyes narrowed into slits.

Seeing Gu Feng's menacing gaze, Hu Hua's expression changed. He then stammered, "Y-yesterday, Guan Mingyue from fourth-grade class 8, along with two other students, invited me to dinner at the Imperial Garden Hotel. Th-then I drank too much..." By the end, Hu Hua's voice had become very small, and he lowered his head.

"You drank too much, so you did something so vile?" The one who spoke was Qi Hui, his expression filled with rage.

"Exactly! Are you even human?" As soon as Qi Hui spoke, others immediately chimed in.

For a while, the meeting room was filled with voices condemning Hu Hua.

"Everyone," Xu Qin gently tapped the table. After everyone fell silent, she continued, "It took a lot of courage for Guan Mingyue to tell me about this. I can imagine how much pain she must be in. Therefore, I have decided that from now on, Hu Hua is dismissed from Maplewood High School!"

Hearing Xu Qin's words, Hu Hua's face changed drastically!

He gritted his teeth, raised his head, and said, "Principal Xu, Guan Mingyue is a student in fourth-grade class 8. Everyone knows that the students in that class are used to playing tricks on teachers. I admit I went to the Imperial Garden Hotel yesterday, but what actually happened is not what you all imagine!"

As soon as Hu Hua finished speaking, the meeting room immediately fell silent. Everyone turned their gaze toward Hu Hua, waiting for his explanation.

Hu Hua also knew that what he said next would determine whether he could continue teaching at Maplewood High School, so he appeared exceptionally calm.

"Think about it, if things really happened as shown, then where did this footage come from?" Although Hu Hua was despicable inside, he wasn't stupid. He quickly identified the loophole.

Hearing Hu Hua's words, everyone was taken aback. Some teachers even showed thoughtful expressions, clearly feeling that Hu Hua's point wasn't without merit.

After all, if Hu Hua had really intended to do that to Guan Mingyue at the time, and Guan Mingyue had been so panicked, it would have been impossible for her to record it. Moreover, a private room in a five-star hotel naturally wouldn't have surveillance cameras or the like.

Seeing some teachers looking thoughtful, Hu Hua gained a bit more confidence. "Principal Xu, the truth of the matter is not like this."
