Chapter 28: Commendation

At this moment, the homeroom teacher and the English teacher, Qi Yue, walked in.

The homeroom teacher said, “Students, our police comrades from Jiangcheng have something to announce. Please quiet down.”

The students all quieted down, looking at Ye Xuan with a gloating expression.

They speculated that Ye Xuan must have done something wrong and was going to be taken away by the police. The reason for announcing it in front of everyone might be to serve as a warning to other students not to make the same mistake!

Then, several police officers came up on stage, and the police officer who saved Ye Xuan said, “Students, today we are here to express our gratitude and commend Ye Xuan for his bravery.

Just yesterday, our police department encountered a serious incident, and thanks to Ye Xuan’s courageous act, he stepped forward and not only protected the lives of the citizens but also saved my life.

Therefore, after discussions in our department, we have decided to award Ye Xuan with a bravery medal and a prize of 50,000 yuan. We hope that everyone can learn from Ye Xuan and develop in all aspects of morality, intelligence, and physical fitness.”

As the police officer spoke, he led the applause, and the homeroom teacher and Qi Yue also joined in.

At this moment, Qi Yue’s impression of Ye Xuan also underwent a significant change. She originally thought Ye Xuan was a troublemaker. Not only did he defy her, but he was also in a relationship.

But these things were actually trivial matters for a person. Ye Xuan’s act of bravery and helping the police was a great act of righteousness.

It can be said that Ye Xuan was a good child, with small flaws but great righteousness!

The students in the class were stunned by this sudden turn of events, but with the teachers and police officers leading the applause, they couldn’t just stand there. They all started clapping.

Among them, Su Mengli applauded particularly vigorously. Her beautiful face was filled with a smile, and her hands were almost red from clapping. It seemed as if she had won the honor herself.

Ye Xuan also went on stage amidst the applause and pinned the bravery medal on his school uniform. In addition, he prepared 50,000 yuan in cash and handed it to Ye Xuan on the spot.

The stack of white banknotes was visually much more intense than a bank card.

For a student, 50,000 yuan was already a considerable sum of money, and everyone looked at this scene with envy.

After receiving the medal and the prize money, Ye Xuan humbly said a few words and then stepped down from the stage.

“Alright, students, that’s it for today. We won’t disturb you anymore. Study hard!”

Afterwards, the police left, and Ye Xuan went down the stage with the thick stack of cash.

The homeroom teacher and Qi Yue praised Ye Xuan again before resuming the normal class.

During this class, everyone’s hearts were not calm. The bravery medal was one thing, but the 50,000 yuan in cash was truly tempting.

At this moment, Su Mengli felt that there was a glow on her face and felt extremely proud.

Yesterday, those classmates said that Ye Xuan had committed a crime and such, and she heard it all. Today’s scene could be said to have slapped them in the face.

And at this moment, Ye Xuan handed the 50,000 yuan to Su Mengli and said, “Mengli, you keep this money.”

Su Mengli immediately said, “How can this be? This is your money…”

She felt a bit shy in her heart. What did Ye Xuan mean by treating her as his wife? She heard that in a marriage, the wife usually controlled the family’s finances…

Ye Xuan explained, “Mengli, my family doesn’t lack money. If I bring this money home, the most likely thing is that my parents will confiscate it because they’re afraid I’ll spend it recklessly.”

Su Mengli hesitated and said, “But such a large sum of money, aren’t you worried about any trouble?”

Ye Xuan smiled and said, “What is there to worry about? In any case, I’m asking you to keep it for me. Don’t refuse.”

Su Mengli could only say, “Okay, then I promise you. I’ll keep this money for you, and you can come to me whenever you need it.”

She felt quite happy at this moment because she felt a sense of trust from someone.

At a mahjong hall in Jiangcheng, Zhang Xiulan was playing mahjong with someone. One of her mahjong friends said, “Xiulan, I heard that your ex-husband has become rich!”

Zhang Xiulan sneered, “Nonsense! Becoming rich? Based on him? I don’t believe it even if you beat me to death!”

Another person said, “It’s true. I also heard that he not only bought a house but also bought a four-wheel Audi worth four to five hundred thousand!”

“Yeah, this Su Guodong used to have no abilities at all. I didn’t expect him to get rich in such a short time after the divorce!”

Hearing so many people saying this, Zhang Xiulan knew that this matter was probably true, but how did this bastard do it?

Zhang Xiulan had been married to Su Guodong for nearly twenty years, and she knew him better than anyone else. Where did he get the money from?

Zhang Xiulan was very suspicious of the source of Su Guodong’s money because her lover was beaten up by Ye Xuan last time and was still in the hospital. They had less contact now.

She had no source of income now, and Su Guodong was so prosperous, enjoying the good life. How could she bear it?

Zhang Xiulan was anxious. After playing this round of mahjong, she immediately called Su Guodong.

“Su Guodong, I heard that you’ve become rich? Buying houses and cars. When we were together, where did you get this ability?”

Su Guodong heard Zhang Xiulan’s words and sneered, “It’s simple. You’re just a jinx. After divorcing you, I suddenly became rich!”

Zhang Xiulan heard this and angrily said, “You’re talking nonsense! I’ll sue you. Don’t bullshit. Where did the money come from?”

Su Guodong sneered, “What does it have to do with you? You’re quite concerned. Let me tell you, we’re already divorced. What qualifications do you have to control me?”

Zhang Xiulan coldly laughed a few times and said, “I have no right to control you? Fine, then I’ll report you to the police. I’ll say you’re committing fraud and that your huge wealth has an unclear source. That house and car, at least worth one to two million, where did you steal the money from?”

Su Guodong angrily said, “You crazy woman, you’re really crazy.”

Zhang Xiulan coldly said, “Are you going to tell me or not? If you don’t, I’ll report you!”

Su Guodong was really afraid that Zhang Xiulan would report him because his relationship with Su Mengli and Ye Xuan’s family, although severed, could be described as extortion if worded differently. Su Guodong didn’t want to lose everything he had now.

Therefore, he said to Zhang Xiulan, “Fine, I’ll tell you the truth. I have severed my relationship with Mengli and her boyfriend’s family.

Her boyfriend’s family gave me two million yuan and asked me to sign an agreement to sever the relationship. Anyway, he’s not my biological daughter, so if it’s severed, it’s severed, right?”

Zhang Xiulan was surprised and said, “Severed his father-daughter relationship? They gave you two million? Is it true?”

Su Guodong directly said, “Believe it or not, it’s up to you!”

After Su Guodong finished speaking, he hung up the phone.
