Zena took my hand and protected me behind her. Rena reacted quickly, her face gloomy, and she looked straight at me.

"Not up to standard? Jason, are you going to let others throw dirty water on Qiyun Technology like this? Are you really going to go against me just for a country girl?"

Zena ignored her and turned to me and said, "Businesses without conscience will eventually destroy themselves. If you encounter a black-hearted boss, run away as soon as possible. I'll let the principal slaughter a sheep to celebrate later."

She waved her hand and said something in Tibetan, and the students rushed forward, pushing Rena and Ethan out the door.

Ethan shouted in grievance: "You actually helped others bully me, you are not worthy of being my father."

Rena just said coldly: " Jason , you'd better not regret it." I watched the students pick up tools and confront each other cautiously. Finally, Rena turned away with a dark face, and her anger almost broke the tranquility of the plateau.

Surprisingly, I didn't feel any emotion, only a sense of relief. It's been ten years, how could I not miss it? I tossed and turned countless times, just wanting Rena to win, wanting her to get what she wanted. But some people can easily reap the fruits without any effort.

Zena patted my shoulder and handed me the wild fruit. "You're reluctant to part with it."

I didn't deny it. I couldn't just let go of something I had put so much effort into.

However, the storm did not subside. Less than two days of peace, a large number of reporters gathered outside the gate of Ai Xin Primary School. The camera was pointed at me, and the flash was flashing wildly.

" Jason , I heard that you defected from Qiyun Technology and even chose to abandon your wife and children to avoid debt. Is this true?"

"Are you qualified to be a teacher with your character and qualities?"

"How can we allow a tainted person like you to become a volunteer teacher in this pure land of Tibet?"

Sharp questions came one after another. I carefully judged and roughly understood the reason from those biased questions.

Rena returned to S City, she put all the blame on me in the latest clarification meeting and made the divorce agreement public in front of many media reporters. She said that I used my identity as a volunteer teacher to cleanse myself because I didn't want to take responsibility.

And Lu Boran's first appearance was as a person who was appointed in a critical situation.

"Jason created this problem, so someone has to solve it. The public opinion and difficulties that Qiyun Technology is facing now are only because the AI technology released by Jason is not yet mature. I will perfect and improve it in the coming days, and I will definitely give everyone a satisfactory answer."

He received warm applause, but also trampled my reputation under his feet. After the press conference, he even gained a group of female fans on the Internet.

[He is responsible, handsome, and has such a high level of education. Qiyun Technology really got a great bargain. 】

【A blessing in disguise. A bad guy left, a top guy came, I made a profit!】

And those journalists and media who didn't want to miss the hot spots were eager to pull me out as a control group to belittle me. The microphones rotated in front of my eyes, and I was surrounded by people, and there was a stalemate for a while.

A stuffy air blocked my chest and I couldn't catch my breath. My eyes went dark and I fell straight down.

I have never been a smooth talker. Facing these unprovoked disasters, the more I tried to explain, the more depressed I felt. The moment I fainted, I seemed to see someone running towards me. I thought of Rena ten years ago , and how she cried and told me that no one could help her. I thought of her appeals to me, but then she stood against me, pointed at my spine and scolded me.

" You are from the countryside, you have never even left the country, you have a narrow vision, and you are restricted in doing things. How can you compare to Bowen ?"

My face turned red at that time. Facing her sarcasm, Ethan also echoed: "That's right, my father's hometown is in the mountains, and Uncle Bowen's hometown is in a big villa in the city. How can my father be better than Uncle Bowen!"

I am a child from the mountains. Even in the mountains, my family is the poorest one. My father told me that families like ours should talk less and do more, so as not to be looked down upon.

So I kept my head down, studied hard, and tried to escape. I just wanted to go higher, so that I would no longer be laughed at or looked down upon.

Ten years ago, Rena begged me, and I stopped for the first time. I thought I won the bet, but I didn't expect that failure would come ten years later.

When I woke up again, Jimmy was sitting next to me, his eyes full of worry. "Teacher, are you dead?"

I choked for a moment: "No, I just fainted."

Zena walked in from the doorway, holding a bowl of milk in her hands. "You're talented if you can hold yourself unconscious."

I just felt my face getting hot and my heart aching. When I left, I never thought Rena would do something so extreme. After being married for ten years, I thought she would at least be more restrained.

"She treated you like this, and you still want to save her face?" Zena looked down at me, "Show me the evidence, I'll say what you can't say."

I was struggling in my heart. In fact, I don't think I'm a coward, I just want to be decent. When I was a child, I couldn't win over others, and when I grew up, I subconsciously didn't want to fight with others.

Zena frowned, not seeming to understand my hesitation. "I've learned a little bit about the situation these days," she said seriously, "It seems that AI's comments caused controversy, and your company needs to send someone to take the blame, and you became the cannon fodder, right?"

She took out her phone and put a picture in front of me. "As far as I know, this AI software was deliberately put into the field of youth education, and the content it guides is extremely controversial. I can't help but guess that way."

" How many years did that man named Bowen study abroad?" I frowned, and the melancholy and depression had long been swept away. What was in front of me was a more serious problem than personal feelings and company interests.

I stood up quickly, my face serious, my voice trembling uncontrollably: "Ten years."

Zena's tone was cold: "Ten years is enough."
