Chapter 437: Will he really let him go?

——

I originally wanted to find some artists to collaborate with, but who knew things would turn into such a mess afterwards?

The principal had no intention of letting Jiang Cheng off.

After the incident, he told all of this to his previous partners.

Those partners were furious.

"Are you crazy? You dare to oppose this guy?"

"Do you not know what he's been up to lately? You've made things like this with him—isn't this just deliberately making things difficult for us?" The partners were truly infuriated by the principal's foolish, ignorant actions.

Everyone knows what Jiang Cheng has been up to lately, right?

Whoever provokes him fears there won't be any good outcome!

His temper is no joke!

And——

He's always stirring up trouble!

The things he causes are each more vicious than the last.

Everyone who previously opposed him ended up in chaos, didn't they?

At that time.

Everyone was feeling agitated.

Why provoke anyone when you had to go provoke Jiang Cheng?

You mess things up into a haze and feel satisfied?

The principal truly didn't expect that in the end these people would unleash a torrent of insults at him.

They said he was good for nothing.

For a moment, he paused slightly.

His face slightly stiff, he was at a loss, his complexion faintly paling.

He appeared somewhat flustered.

"I never intended for this to happen; I just wanted to discuss cooperation properly with the other side. If he was willing, I'd surely continue working well with him… but who knew Jiang Cheng's temper would be even more explosive than I imagined?"

"Then he launched into a tirade against me, spouting nothing but a bunch of especially vulgar words!"

"I also think he's being completely unreasonable, which is why we ended up arguing." The principal then stood there, overwhelmed with guilt; after this happened, he clearly panicked and, for a while, stood there helplessly.

Watching everyone heap a frenzy of insults upon him, he stood there the whole time like someone who'd done something wrong, feeling extremely embarrassed.

"What should we do now? Is there any way to fix this?" The principal was completely flustered.

As soon as the incident happened,

He also didn't expect that you people, who used to be by his side, would instead unleash a harsh barrage of insults on him.

At that time.

He was frightened quite badly all at once.

If he'd known things would turn out like this, he should have restrained himself back then and not opposed Jiang Cheng like that! But now that it's come to this, what should he do?

He looked like he was about to cry at any moment, truly panicked.

Others looked at him with exasperation, wishing he'd shape up.

"I see you're clearly taking our recent troubles too lightly—otherwise why would you dump this pile of junk on us for no reason?" Those partners stared at him, exasperated, practically half-dead from anger.

It's infuriating!

This principal really—why do anything else but mess things up like this?

"I didn't expect this either!"

His face flushed with embarrassment as he defended himself: "You know I couldn't have provoked him, no matter what I said back then, given how angry you'd be."

"But now that it's happened, what else can I do?"

He sighed.

For a moment, he was utterly irritable.

"Can't we look for another solution? Otherwise we can't just watch things keep spreading like this?" He forced a smile, looking at the big bosses before him, and could only ask hesitantly.

If he'd known it would turn out like this, there's no way he could have told those big bosses in front of him back then.

Is it all right now?

It's clearly picking up a stone and smashing it onto his own foot!

His face now looked somewhat deathly pale; burdened by this, he felt extreme inner anguish, verging on utter despair.

What should be done?

His mood slightly stiff, he was on the verge of collapsing into despair.

"I advise you to quickly explain things clearly to Jiang Cheng and apologize; if he doesn't forgive you, you'd better be careful for a while. If you let things worsen further, don't blame us for not warning you—any consequences will be yours to bear."

"I'm telling you, the situation is serious—it can't be cleared up in just a few words!"

He gave a dead‑pan reminder.

These big bosses

all launched a fierce condemnation at the principal before them.

The principal at that moment collapsed, his mindset as if it had utterly shattered in that instant, a wave of despair surging through his heart.

He couldn't help but give a wry, bitter smile.

That despairing mindset had already left his mood feeling like he'd fallen into an abyss.

Faced with those people, he finally had to concede: "I understand—I'll go apologize to Jiang Cheng right now and seek his forgiveness! If he won't forgive me, I'll kneel before him and beg for his pardon…"

It seems that aside from this, he truly has no other option right now.

If we don't promptly handle the apology, we'll truly have to watch the situation get even worse; at least he currently has no way to do anything.

So he said he'd apologize, and he did.

The bosses' expressions only then eased a little.

But they continued to warn: "If Jiang Cheng doesn't forgive you, and we get found out on our side, we'll definitely make you regret it!"

"It's clearly a small matter, but in your hands you've made it a mess — I have reason to suspect you're deliberately tormenting us." Those bosses looked at the person before them with hatred, their eyes naturally showing some resentment.

When everyone started condemning, the principal had already been scolded from head to toe.

At that time, the principal's face was tense.

He forced a smile and was respectful.

"You're right, I really did mess up these things — I apologize!"

"I'll also quickly think of other ways to make amends; I hope you'll give me another chance."

He lowered his eyes.

If the principal had known from the start that provoking Jiang Cheng would lead to this, there's no way he could have decided on his own!

Is it alright now?

He really lifted a stone only to drop it on his own foot!

The key is now, he wants to find a solution — but how should he solve it?

His relationship with Jiang Cheng at the scene became so awkward; will Jiang Cheng really let him off? (End of chapter)
