Chapter 156 Expose the Dirt
Elena looked at everyone with a serious expression and then shifted her gaze to Catherine sinisterly.
She said coldly, You did sing well, but I think you’re too bad-mannered. You show no respect for the
judges or audience. So, personally, I don’t suggest you advance to the next round.”
As soon as she finished speaking, someone immediately chimed in with her. People were all selfish.
Catherine’s team was so competent. If they advanced to the next round of the contest, they would be a
tough opponent.
The skeptical voice was getting more intense. The complacent smile on Elena’s face also became
bigger. Just now, she received Liana’s hint. Liana suggested that she and Nash would cast an
opposing vote for them. Coupled with the audience’s objections, she didn’t believe that Catherine’s
team could qualify for the next round.
Hearing Elena’s sarcastic words, Bryan and Ronin both looked enraged. The two of them looked at
Catherine simultaneously, waiting for her response.
Catherine looked quite composed, and a faint sneer crossed her pretty eyes. She stared at Elena as if
seeing an idiot.
Maybe Catherine had sensed that Bryan and Ronin were waiting for her to make a decision, so she
turned her head to take a glance at Ronin. Ronin alone could deal with this kind of situation easily. He
had long been itching to do something.
Now that his chance finally came, he was ready to take action. He arched his brows at Catherine,
gesturing with his eyes to her that he could handle this. Ronin turned on the microphone and gazed at
Elena with disdain and contempt.

Elena was frightened by his eyes and couldn’t help saying, “Why are you staring at me like this? What’s
wrong with me expressing my opinion?”
“You’re not wrong!” Ronin replied easily and gave a sinister snort. “Well, answer my question. On what
ground can you sit there to judge us and look down at everyone haughtily?”
“I…”
Before Elena could respond, Ronin interrupted her first, “You don’t know how to answer me, right?
You’re not a graduate of a professional college or a top expert. How can you get to sit there and point
fingers? I’ve already shown you enough respect by standing here. How can you have the cheek to say
that we show no respect for others?”
Seeing that Elena grimaced in a fury, Ronin snorted. “Hmph! Don’t be mad. I’m merely telling the truth.
If you don’t want to hear it, it’s fine. Come and compete with me. Whatever you want to do, I’m in. If I
lose, I’ll apologize to you!”
If Ronin hadn’t given the performance, Elena might have had the guts to compete with him. Yet, as she
had witnessed Ronin’s ability, she would only embarrass herself if she competed with him.
Besides, faced with Ronin’s censure in front of so many people, Elena felt gravely humiliated. She
wanted to argue back, but she just couldn’t. Seeing that Elena was rendered awkwardly speechless,
Liana hastened to take over the microphone.
She said, “Ronin, we understand you disagree with the judge’s opinion. But it’s the stipulation of the
school that we act as the judges. It’s also the voting result of all teachers and students. Besides,
whether you can advance to the next round still remains to be confirmed.
“If you slander the Student Union for your own interest, isn’t it too selfish?”
Unlike Elena’s explicit criticism, Liana’s words were like a soft weapon. With a few words, she
described Ronin as a guy who deliberately dissed the judge because he was unsatisfied with the result.
If Ronin could be easily defeated by Liana, Catherine wouldn’t let him deal with this. After hearing Liana
out, Ronin retorted ruthlessly, “Are you done?”
Liana’s face instantly darkened, but she didn’t snap at once. She knew that someone would make
Ronin pay for his arrogance.
Shortly, he would arouse public wrath. All she needed to do was just wait and see. It was a pity that
they had underestimated Ronin’s ability.
The reason why Ronin came to school was to keep Catherine company. He would feel bad about being
away from Catherine for even one day.
Of course, he had been well prepared before coming to the school. He had investigated everything
about the school well. No one expected that he would directly target the Student Union. Hearing
Liana’s words, he felt like laughing a bit.
“A referendum in the Student Union? Who joined the vote? I didn’t, anyway. How many people here
joined the vote?
He got no response but silence. Usually, these matters were all determined by a random internal vote
among the seniors of the Student Union. They left out many procedures just to save trouble. As no one
spoke, Ronin continued lashing out at Liana.
“Student Union? It’s merely a den of iniquity under the reign of you despicable people. You’ve done
various shameful things. How can you have the cheek to talk about the Student Union. here?”

Instantly, the seniors of the Student Union all looked furious. In particular, Nash was really mad. After
all, he was the leader of the Student Union. He couldn’t allow Ronin to sling mud at the Student Union
like this.
He thumped the table and glared at Ronin. “Ronin, mind your language. If I ever hear you slander the
Student Union again, I’ll teach you a lesson.”
“Hmph, slander? Teach me a lesson? Bring it on! I’m slandering the Student Union? Isn’t the Student
Union a den of iniquity?
“No rush to get miffed. Just let me finish first. Do I need to tell you how much money the Organization
Department has embezzled through the Student Union all these years? And how much money have
you acquired from the sponsorship as kickbacks?”
His words just caused a sensation. Although some people also thought the Student Union was involved
in several shady practices, no one had ever dared to question them, for they couldn’t afford to offend
the Student Union at all. Now, Ronin just laid it bare boldly. He was so awesome!
Nash flushed in anger and yelled at Ronin, “If you continue talking nonsense, I’ll ask the school
superintendent to punish you!”
“Punish me? Absurd! What if I say I have evidence? How can you scam money from other students in
the name of the Student Union? Did you have a good time in the hotel last week? And how did you
spend the kickbacks the Liaison Department obtained from the learning machine supplier? Should you
give us an explanation?”
Everyone present was astonished to hear that. Ronin just offered several examples. The seniors of the
Student Union were dumbstruck. None of them expected that Ronin would be aware of those things.
They looked at Nash with pale expressions, waiting for him to offer a solution.
