Chapter 443: Can't afford to pay
Hey...
Tang Zhiguo sighed, his face full of disappointment.
Zhao Jing looked at Su Mengyao and said, "I'm sorry, Su Mengyao. You lent me such a valuable Walkman, but I failed to protect it well. Now it's in this state."
"This is not your fault, so don't blame yourself too much."
Su Mengyao felt sad that the thing was broken, but it was not Zhao Jing's fault after all.
Bai Lingshan had no intention of doing this, and since everyone lived in the same dormitory, they had no way of guarding against it.
Woo woo woo...
Bai Lingshan cried hard, as if her tears at this moment could make up for everything she had done.
However, her tears did not gain anyone's sympathy.
Tang Zhiguo's face was serious, even a little gloomy.
"You know how to cry now, if you had known this would happen, you wouldn't have done it in the first place!"
Now that the truth has come to light, Zhao Jing did not falsely accuse Bai Lingshan, and the fight between the two is no longer a big deal.
Tang Zhiguo looked at Su Mengyao and said, "Student Su, since Bai Lingshan has admitted that she did it, I don't think there's any need to call the police anymore."
"Things that happen within the school, I think are best handled within the school."
Tang Zhiguo didn't want to call the police anymore, but Su Mengyao didn't care. She had never thought about sending Bai Lingshan to jail.
He nodded and agreed, "I'll follow the school's instructions on how to deal with this. However, my Walkman has been smashed to pieces and is completely broken. Someone must be held accountable for this."
"Either compensate me for the original price, or give me an identical one."
Su Mengyao expressed her attitude very clearly.
Looking at the broken Walkman on the table, it was impossible to repair it.
Su Mengyao demanded compensation according to the price, which made everyone in the room feel heavy-hearted.
However, Su Mengyao's request was not excessive at all. After all, such a valuable item was deliberately broken by someone. No one would accept such a huge loss in vain.
Tang Zhiguo turned and looked at Bailing Mountain.
"You caused this trouble, and you dropped the Walkman on purpose. Now, tell me how you're going to compensate them."
pay?
How could Bai Lingshan compensate for this luxury item worth 1300 yuan? She simply couldn't afford it.
At this moment, Bai Lingshan no longer cared about the festival with Su Mengyao. He looked at Su Mengyao with tears in his eyes, his eyes full of pleading.
"Su Mengyao, I'm sorry. I know I was wrong. It's all my fault. I was blinded by greed and did something like this."
"I apologize, I'm sorry, and I promise you I will never do anything like this again."
"You are a great man and don't bear grudges against the little ones."
"I beg you, please forgive me..."
Bai Lingshan begged Su Mengyao, hoping that Su Mengyao would soften her heart and not let her pay compensation.
This is also what she is best at.
It’s a pity that this walkman was bought by Lu Ye, and Bai Lingshan deliberately broke it. Su Mengyao didn’t intend to let her get away with it.
Facing Bai Lingshan's apology with ulterior motives, Su Mengyao said calmly:
"You don't need to apologize to me. You framed Zhao Jing, and the Walkman was just a tool for you to do it."
"If you want to apologize, you should apologize to Zhao Jing."
"As for my Walkman, you only need to compensate me for the price. There is no conflict of interest between you and me."
Su Mengyao's words were also recognized by several teachers in the room.
Su Mengyao lent the Walkman to Zhao Jing. While Zhao Jing was in possession of it, Bai Lingshan deliberately hung it in the air so that it fell and broke.
There is Zhao Jing between Su Mengyao and Bai Lingshan, so there is really no conflict of interest between the two.
Hearing this, Bai Lingshan's face froze.
Su Mengyao clearly wanted her to pay compensation.
But she simply couldn't afford such an expensive item.
Seeing that his confession of fault did not win Su Mengyao's sympathy, Bai Lingshan changed the subject and pretended to be from a vulnerable group again.
"Su Mengyao, your family is rich, a Walkman is nothing to you."
"You clearly know that I can't afford to pay for it, so why are you forcing me like this?"
"Don't you have any regard for the friendship between classmates? Do you have to force me into a desperate situation?"
"I'm begging you now. I can fix it for you. I'll definitely find the best repairman in the city to fix it for you. Isn't that enough?"
Bai Lingshan's words were a form of moral kidnapping. She created a weak image for herself and deliberately said in public that Su Mengyao's family was rich.
If Su Mengyao continued to force her to pay compensation, it would give people the impression that she was bullying others and was unreasonable.
But her idea is good.
But the people in this room were not fools, so how could they not hear the sinister intention in her words?
Looking at his student who had done something bad but pretended to be innocent, Zhang Huaiyu showed an expression of disgust on his face for the first time.
Su Mengyao even directly retorted:
"Let's be clear, you broke my Walkman on purpose. I'm only asking for compensation. How can you say I'm forcing you?"
"If you follow this line of thought, doesn't that mean that no matter what bad things you do, as long as you say you can't afford it, others can't demand compensation. Otherwise, it would be aggressive. What kind of logic is this?"
"If that's the case, then is there still law? Is there still law?"
Su Mengyao and the others all studied philosophy, and logical thinking is a compulsory course. How could they easily fall into Bai Lingshan's trap?
Zhao Jing was outspoken and shouted directly at Bai Lingshan, "Stop pretending! Everyone in the dormitory knows that you've always been jealous of Su Mengyao. Who are you pretending to be wronged for now?"
"Wuwuwu... I've already apologized to you, what else do you want? I admit that I was confused for a moment, but I really can't afford to compensate." Bai Lingshan sobbed.
Tang Zhiguo was very angry when he saw this scene.
Bai Lingshan is a cadre of the Student Union, yet he looks like this.
How can a person who behaves like this be a good academic leader? He is simply corrupting the school's atmosphere.
However, no matter how angry he was, Tang Zhiguo, as the teacher handling this incident, had to come up with his own suggestions at this moment.
Looking at Su Mengyao, Tang Zhiguo said to her:
"Student Su, the school is aware of your request. Bring the Walkman's credit card to the school as soon as possible to prove its value. The school will help you seek justice."
"Okay, thank you Teacher Tang." Su Mengyao nodded. This was better. She was too lazy to talk nonsense with Bai Lingshan.
Tang Zhiguo looked at Zhao Jing and said in a deep voice:
"Although Bai Lingshan framed you first, this is a school after all. If you encounter any problems, you should report them to the school teachers first. How can you fight in the dormitory?"
"However, considering that you have your reasons, I can give you a lighter punishment and give you a warning. Please go back and write a self-criticism and submit it."
No matter what, it was definitely wrong for Zhao Jing to beat someone in the dormitory.
A warning is a relatively light punishment, and it will not be recorded in the file. As long as Zhao Jing does not violate school rules in the future, this punishment will be automatically lifted after a period of time.
"Yes, I know I was wrong, and I will definitely reflect on myself deeply."
Zhao Jing's attitude was very sincere and she accepted Tang Zhiguo's handling of the matter.
