Will you compensate for my loss?

Xu Ning remained silent, looking at Wu Mingxiang with a half-smile, his eyes like he was watching a circus clown perform.

At this moment, Yu Qiang, who was protective, couldn't help but frown.

"Old Wu, don't scare him!"

"What are you talking about, school or no school!"

"Ai Wei is a student of the school, so why isn't Xu Ning?"

"The school won't meddle in disputes over private property!"

"If you have that attitude, then I'll let Xu Ning go back!"

Xu Ning couldn't help but give Yu Qiang a thumbs up. Although Teacher Yu was always good-tempered, he wouldn't tolerate anyone speaking ill of his students!

Wu Mingxiang was somewhat annoyed. He picked up his teacup and took a sip to suppress his anger, but his gaze at Xu Ning was as if he wanted to devour him whole.

Seeing that Wu Mingxiang had stopped talking, Yu Qiang turned to Xu Ning.

"Teacher Wu said that you deliberately let Ai Wei break your watch, and then you demanded seven or eight hundred thousand from Ai Wei. What exactly happened?"

The reason Yu Qiang called Xu Ning was because of Wu Mingxiang's complaint.

Although he didn't believe it, Wu Mingxiang was so insistent and swore to it that it made him a little unsure.

Wu Mingxiang clearly stated that if the matter couldn't be resolved, he would take it to the department, and even to the school, to make Xu Ning suffer the consequences.

In desperation, Yu Qiang could only call Xu Ning first to inquire and understand the situation.

Xu Ning almost laughed when he heard it!

He had guessed that Wu Mingxiang would definitely distort the truth and stir up trouble.

"Teacher Yu, it's like this..." Xu Ning calmly recounted the entire incident to Yu Qiang.

When Yu Qiang heard that Ai Wei and the two others had insulted Huo Xuefeng because their request for a job from him was unsuccessful, his anger immediately flared up.

Absolutely shameless!

They brazenly asked for a job, and when they didn't get it, they revealed their ugliest faces!

To cultivate such people was simply a disgrace to the school!

That saying was truly correct: education only filters out academic failures, not moral failures.

And upon hearing that Xu Ning had just inherited his great-uncle's inheritance, Yu Qiang was also incredibly shocked by this plot twist that only appears in movies.

"It's true that Ai Wei broke your watch."

"It's also true that the watch repair fee is 780,000."

"You can guarantee the truthfulness of what you said, right?"

Yu Qiang asked Xu Ning with a serious attitude.

Xu Ning nodded, his attitude calm and confident, saying, "I have surveillance footage from when the incident occurred, and I also have the repair invoice provided by Richard Mille's official service. These are enough to prove the truthfulness of my words!"

Yu Qiang slammed the table, a look of relief appearing on his face.

"Since you have proof, I guarantee that the school will not interfere in your private dispute!"

"And you have just inherited an inheritance, so whether you applied for a student loan or a scholarship before, it doesn't count as a violation!"

"Some people make mistakes, and they have to pay the price!"

Hearing Yu Qiang's decisive words, Wu Mingxiang was furious, pointing his finger at Yu Qiang and Xu Ning.

"You..."

Xu Ning's face showed a sarcastic smile, and his tone was full of mockery.

"Are you pointing at me because you want me to knock your hand off too?"

"It's just that you don't seem to be wearing a watch on your wrist!"

Wu Mingxiang was extremely annoyed, but since things had come to this, he could only suppress his anger and speak through gritted teeth.

"Xu Ning, Yu Qiang's guarantee is useless!"

"The school will definitely intervene in this matter. The school cannot stand by and watch its own students suffer!"

"I'm not trying to scare you, but if Ai Wei goes all out and posts the matter online, and public opinion escalates, the school won't be able to withstand the pressure!"

"Moreover, it's better to forgive when you can. You've already inherited an inheritance, so you probably don't care about this watch, do you?"

"So, let's just drop this matter here; it's better for everyone!"

Listening to Wu Mingxiang's gritted teeth, yet suppressed, manner of speaking to him, Xu Ning smiled brightly.

"I don't think this is good for everyone!"

"I just want to ask, why should it be?"

"If we just let it go, then will you compensate me for my losses?"

"Don't tell me that I have money so I don't care about this watch."

"This kind of argument is simply ridiculous!"

"There are so many rich people in the world, but I haven't seen anyone tell them—you're all so rich, so give me this house, give me this car!"

"No matter how much money I have, it's mine, and I have the right to decide how to spend it!"

"I'd rather burn it to ashes than let you benefit from it!"

"As for using the school to pressure me, that's a childish trick, so don't try it again. Do you think I'd be worried?"

"Is the school so bored that it would meddle in students' private affairs?"

"Of course, you can try to let Ai Wei blow up the matter online, but then who will be in a terrible mess, I don't know!"

"Also, I think it's necessary for me to remind Teacher Wu Mingxiang of one thing."

"Today I stand here as a student, and you can speak to me with this attitude."

"But once I graduate, you will understand how easy it is for a rich person to deal with an ordinary person!"

"Your cousin Ai Wei is the best example!"

After speaking, Xu Ning shrugged, his expression still calm.

Wu Mingxiang's pupils constricted, his heart filled with extreme dread.

He was truly intimidated!

Just as Xu Ning said, it was incredibly easy for a rich person to ruin an ordinary person.

Although he was a university counselor, it seemed like he had the school's backing.

But don't forget, Xu Ning was also a student of the school.

The school couldn't possibly show favoritism!

If he no longer had the school as his backing, Xu Ning would probably truly be able to manipulate him however he wanted!

He didn't believe at all that the young man in front of him lacked cunning.

His cousin had to pay 780,000 in compensation; how could there not be something fishy about that?

Wu Mingxiang looked deeply at Xu Ning, then left the office without a word.

Having been mocked and refuted so thoroughly by Xu Ning, how could he still have the face to stay there?

At this moment, Yu Qiang's gaze towards Xu Ning was filled with satisfaction.

He wouldn't think that Xu Ning did anything wrong!

People truly can't be too honest, otherwise, others will bully them.

Originally, he was worried that his student, with his steady and honest personality, would suffer losses in society!

But now there was no need to worry at all. With the sharpness Xu Ning displayed today, only others would suffer losses!

"Don't mind him; just continue to demand compensation in your own way!" Yu Qiang patted Xu Ning's shoulder.

Xu Ning nodded, "I've already fully entrusted it to a law firm, so I don't need to worry."

Just then, he suddenly saw a stack of documents on the innermost side of Yu Qiang's desk, and the topmost document caught his attention.

"Notice Regarding the Preparatory Work for the 60th Anniversary Celebration of the School"

60th Anniversary Celebration?

Xu Ning blinked, lost in thought. Their school really seemed to have been founded 60 years ago...
