Chapter 2228: The Plan to Approach Someone Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales Translated by XephiZ Edited by Aelryinth Sancha was about to turn around and leave, her expression cold. Improper dealings were very common in the Aorus Sacred Institute. She did not want to intervene with their ‘enjoyable’ time. “Thank you. If you hadn’t helped me, the school was definitely going to expel me. My father has always been strict with me. If he finds out the school has expelled me, he’s going to beat me to death!” Beatrice’s voice was very clear in the quiet night. Sancha was heading in the opposite direction, yet she could still hear Beatrice’s voice. She subconsciously slowed down. “Don’t do that next time. Do you understand? You must look after yourself. Even if someone like Michelson is threatening you with your score, you should tell the Disciplinary Committee immediately. Do you think Michelson will let you off the hook, knowing the kind of person he is? He’s going to keep doing it to you, since you have no way out. You will only feel more ashamed of yourself,” Zhao Manyan chided her. “Mm, mm, sir, I’ll study harder. Thank you for saving me from that scum... I thought you were like him. I’m sorry,” Beatrice apologized. “Being cautious is a must, especially when you are a girl,” Zhao Manyan warned her again. “But there are bad rumors about you spreading through the school. Do they bother you? I can help clear your name,” Beatrice offered. “More people are going to believe the rumors if you do that. Why would I be bothered by them when I know they are not true?” Zhao Manyan said airily. — Sancha slowed even further. She had a frown on her face. If teachers were abusing their power to force students into something they were not willing, she, as a member of the Disciplinary Committee, would report them to the Dean immediately. Sancha knew who Michelson was. He was a pervert who had tried to pick on her once. She did not expect that he was already preying on his students! A girl like Sancha who was about to be expelled by the school because of her poor results was an easy target for him. She would not dare to say anything, even if Michelson crossed the line. “It’s you. What a coincidence, out for a walk?” Zhao Manyan’s voice came from behind Sancha. The voice shocked Sancha. She turned around and saw the man’s handsome face less than a meter away from her. It was dark in the hall. Sancha could barely see the man’s face there. She knew he was quite handsome based on her first impressions, but she realized he was a lot more handsome than she thought under the bright streetlight. His face was as perfect as a work of art. “Mm, I was just taking a walk... Was that girl Beatrice?” Sancha asked him. “Oh, you know her? Yeah, I feel sorry for her. I wonder what the Disciplinary Committee is doing. If they aren’t doing their job properly, many girls like her will be victimized. Beatrice might have a little bad behavior among the students, but it doesn’t mean others can just prey on her,” Zhao Manyan said. “I’m a member of the Disciplinary Committee. I’m actually the Vice Chair. The name is Sancha,” Sancha introduced herself. Zhao Manyan pretended to be shocked. Zhao Manyan knew who she was from the very first day he had set foot into the Aorus Sacred Institute. 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚 As a matter of fact, Zhao Manyan was acting on purpose in front of Sancha. It was not easy to tackle a cautious woman, yet he had to leave her with good first and second impressions. A woman’s first impression of a man was very important, but the second impression was even more important. Not every woman would fall for a handsome man right away, so the second impression was the key. He must prove to the woman that he was a kind-hearted person while she was not that interested in his body. With these two impressions, it was a lot easier for her to fall into his trap. Zhao Manyan knew she was Sancha. He also knew she was the Vice Chair of the Disciplinary Committee. Most importantly, he knew she was his future sister-in-law, too, as she was Zhao Youqian’s fiancée! However, Zhao Manyan was very curious about the reason why Zhao Youqian would choose the Vice Head of the Disciplinary Committee of the Aorus Sacred Institute as his fiancée, knowing how selfish the man was. Zhao Manyan would never believe Zhao Youqian was interested in the academic scene. All he was thinking of was to make more money and gain more power! Therefore, Zhao Manyan was interested in learning Sancha’s background. However, Sancha was very good at hiding it. He had yet to learn anything useful from his investigation. Zhao Manyan had no choice but to sacrifice himself in order to dig deeper. No one was better at approaching a woman than him! “Beatrice doesn’t have solid evidence to report Michelson. I just happened to pass by when he tried to make his move, so I doubt you’re going to find anything, even if you investigate Michelson,” Zhao Manyan replied helplessly. “Our investigation doesn’t only rely on evidence. The Aorus Sacred Institute has its own laws,” Sancha stated. “But what if it was just an act? The girl might seem unwilling, yet she was beyond redemption too... She managed to prevent herself from being expelled without letting Michelson get his way,” Zhao Manyan commented. Sancha was startled. She had not thought of that possibility... “You are very calm about it all,” Sancha noticed. “I’ve seen many different kinds of people, so I won’t judge a person so easily. People will also change because of their surroundings, don’t you think?” Zhao Manyan said. “You are not wrong,” Sancha nodded. If the woman really was a victim, she should seek help from the Disciplinary Committee, instead of through another teacher! “Forget it, it’s a pleasant night, we shouldn’t waste our time on such annoying stuff. By the way, where’s your little boyfriend? If I remember correctly, isn’t he Prince Beny? An identity whom many respect and are envious of... but it makes total sense as only a prince is worthy of a gorgeous girl like you!” Zhao Manyan quickly switched the topic. “He’s not my boyfriend. He’s just... a friend, a dance partner for the ball,” Sancha sighed. Zhao Manyan put on a happy face. He was pretending to be happy in front of Sancha, but he was totally overjoyed inside! She did not mention her fiancée! It meant she was not trying to chase him away! His plan of leaving a good first and second impression had worked perfectly. Otherwise, she would just tell him to leave by saying she already had a fiancée!
