Tang Yi got up and left the conference room. Seeing Tang Yi looking dispirited, everyone guessed that she had been abandoned by Mr. Mo.
Even if this matter was not Tang Yi's fault.
But Mo Shao Xuan was Mr. Mo's biological son.
No father could stand by and watch his son get into trouble without getting angry.
Even if Tang Yi had not harmed Mo Shao Xuan, as his homeroom teacher, Tang Yi had failed to take proper care of her student, leading to Mo Shao Xuan's accident. This was Tang Yi's dereliction of duty.
It would be better if Tang Yi was abandoned by Mr. Mo.
Who told Tang Yi to be so arrogant, ignoring them?
So, the female teachers who had been flattering Tang Yi just moments ago now started to ostracize her.
However, Tang Yi did not care.
Tang Yi had already decided to leave.
After Tang Yi left the conference room, Mr. Mo also came out. Similarly, Mr. Mo's expression was not good.
But compared to Tang Yi's grim face, Mr. Mo appeared somewhat helpless.
Everyone was curious about what exactly they had discussed inside, and why they seemed like completely different people in the blink of an eye.
Tang Yi went directly to the principal's office. The principal was stunned. He didn't expect Tang Yi to come to him so soon and didn't know why she was there.
The principal had witnessed Tang Yi's relationship with Mr. Mo, so when Tang Yi came to him, the principal dared not make any hasty decisions. He could only wait and see, and then inform Mr. Mo.
The principal calmly observed Tang Yi and asked, "Teacher Tang, is there something you need from me?"
Tang Yi cut to the chase and said, "I want to resign. I will submit my resignation letter to you later."
Why would she suddenly want to resign out of the blue?
The principal looked at Tang Yi and asked calmly, "Teacher Tang, what's wrong? Are you unhappy working here?"
Tang Yi wanted to say yes, but the principal had never made things difficult for her. Tang Yi did not want to let the principal know about her unhappiness at work.
So, Tang Yi said indifferently, "It's my own problem."
Hearing Tang Yi say this, the principal was silent for a long time before saying, "Teacher Tang, you should know that we have all signed contracts. You've only been working for a few days and you want to resign. Although our school's salary is not high and the benefits are not good, you can't go back on your word. How can I maintain discipline in the future if you act like this?"
"Principal, this is my fault. I didn't think much of it when I signed the contract with you. I will pay the liquidated damages, but I truly find it difficult to continue this job."
Seeing that Tang Yi was determined to leave, the principal waved his hand and said, "This is not something I can decide alone. Let me think about it first. You can go to class now."
Tang Yi heard the principal say this and didn't insist further. She nodded slightly at the principal and left his office.
After Tang Yi left, the principal quickly called Mr. Mo.
Mr. Mo's tone was indifferent. "Is there something?"
The principal heard Mr. Mo's tone and felt that he seemed to be in a bad mood.
Then he looked at Tang Yi's expression just now.
The principal guessed in his heart that Tang Yi and Mr. Mo had probably quarreled.
The principal coughed twice and said, "Mr. Mo, it's like this, Teacher Tang just verbally offered her resignation to me, but I haven't approved it yet. Regarding this resignation..."
"Do as she says," Mr. Mo replied calmly.
The principal was stunned. He hadn't expected Mr. Mo to be so resolute.
They say that couples can resolve their disputes by the bedside.
Although Tang Yi and Mr. Mo were not yet married, looking at how Mr. Mo cared for Tang Yi, their relationship was clearly not ordinary.
Moreover, Mr. Mo was a mature and steady man.
He wouldn't act impulsively in matters of the heart.
But the principal never expected that such a mature and steady Mr. Mo would also be a "love-struck fool" who would break up at the slightest argument.
If their relationship continued to be in this stalemate, it would be difficult to reconcile in the future.
The principal coughed twice and said, "Mr. Mo, I haven't agreed to approve Teacher Tang's resignation yet. If you are reluctant to tell Teacher Tang directly due to pride, I can say that it is my decision to keep Teacher Tang. After all, Teacher Tang has a contract with our school, and if she resigns without authorization, we have the right to pursue legal action."
"No need. Just do as I said."
Compared to the principal's earnest persuasion, Mr. Mo appeared very calm.
After speaking, Mr. Mo hung up the phone.
Although not all teachers and students had yet undergone health checks, Mr. Mo had already made up his mind that Tang Yi was his biological daughter.
Because his investigation showed that after separating from him, Yu Gui Lan had not had contact with any men and had not remarried. She had given birth to Tang Yi while living under a pseudonym. Considering Tang Yi's age, Mr. Mo deduced that she was his biological daughter.
With this realization, Mr. Mo was filled with emotion. He knew that no matter what he said, Tang Yi would not forgive him or acknowledge him as her father.
However, Mr. Mo genuinely wanted to give Tang Yi the best of everything.
This was to compensate for the more than twenty years he had failed her.
Tang Yi was still in shock.
For so many years, her mother had never mentioned her father to Tang Yi.
Tang Yi remembered that when she was little, she was ridiculed by other children, who called her a wild child with no father.
At that time, Tang Yi said she had a father, but he was just busy with work.
For this reason, Tang Yi specifically went home to ask her mother.
However, Tang Yi didn't expect that her mother said nothing. That night, when she got up to go to the bathroom, she saw her mother secretly wiping away tears.
From then on, even if Tang Yi was bullied and called a fatherless wild child, she would never ask her mother about her father again.
Thus, the mother and daughter lived together for over twenty years.
If it weren't for what Mr. Mo had said to Tang Yi, Tang Yi might not have known who her biological father was even now.
Tang Yi had wanted to ask, "Where were you all these years when I needed you most, and when my mother needed you most?"
Now, her mother was gone, and she didn't need him anymore. Why was he showing up now?
But in the end, Tang Yi said nothing. Tang Yi's silence was to give him some dignity.
She didn't want to make things too complicated.
However, Tang Yi's silence did not mean she had truly forgiven him.
