Once the newspapers came out, the story began to blow up.
Reporters swarmed the school, and some parents went to demand an explanation.
After about three days, the school issued a response.
The school cafeteria staff was completely replaced, the vice principal was fired, and the principal received a formal demerit. For all the children affected by the incident, the school would cover their medical expenses and waive their cafeteria fees for the rest of the semester.
Xue Yue found this outcome acceptable. She was relieved now that the staff members involved had been fired.
Shiyi was fine now, too. Ruanruan teased him, "What is with you? Last time you were carried off and almost got lost, and now you get food poisoning. How are you so disaster-prone?"
