"Shen, at the end of the day, our school is also responsible. It's our lack of supervision that let such rumors spread among students. Rest assured, after this incident, the school will definitely tighten its discipline and conduct a thorough investigation to prevent this from happening again.
But you see, the matter has blown up and is affecting not just those few but also the reputation of the school. In light of my personal request, could you and Mr. Shen consider letting them off just this once?
Don't worry, we won't let it go just like that—we will definitely punish them later. We'll have them apologize to you in front of the whole school. What do you think?"
Shen Weiyi said, "Alright, in light of Director Li's request, I'll let it go this time. However, I reserve the right to pursue further action if I ever hear anyone talking behind my back and my mother's again— I won't mind letting the lawyer make another trip."
