Chapter 18: Chapter 18: Slapping the Face (End)
"Director of the Education Bureau? Looking for Zhu Fei?"
At this moment, Tang Mengyun and Pan Tingting were both a bit confused, unable to understand why the Director of the Education Bureau was looking for Zhu Fei.
"Hehe, if I’m not mistaken, you both must be Zhu Fei’s classmates, right?"
Perhaps seeing the confusion in the hearts of the two girls, Gu Tianyu suddenly stepped forward, smiling gently, and kindly spoke:
"I’ll be frank with you, Zhu Fei is a younger relative of one of my leaders. He entrusted me with taking special care of him. Do you know where Zhu Fei might be right now?"
Hearing Gu Tianyu’s explanation, Tang Mengyun and Pan Tingting suddenly shivered, finally fully regaining their composure.
Tang Mengyun was particularly excited, even though she still didn’t understand why Zhu Fei was connected to the Director of the Education Bureau.
But one thing she was sure of was that now, with the Director of the Education Bureau involved, neither Guo Shaonjun nor Feng Guohua could possibly tamper with things and expel Zhu Fei.
With this thought, Tang Mengyun’s heart suddenly stirred, and she couldn’t help but sadly say, "Well, if there isn’t anything else, Zhu Fei should be in the Senior Year, Class 1 classroom right now."
"It’s just that a moment ago... Zhu Fei he..."
As she spoke to this point, Tang Mengyun pretended to hesitate, causing the faces of those present to slightly change.
Gu Tianyu was more direct, his expression immediately darkening as he said, "What happened to Zhu Fei just now? Tell me everything."
Even before coming here, Gu Tianyu had received a call from the Secretary of the Lan City Committee, asking him to give special attention to a student named Zhu Fei at Lan City No.1 High School.
It was said that the request had come from higher-ups.
One could imagine how daunting the backing was for someone who could make the Secretary of the Lan City Committee personally call the mere Director of the Education Bureau.
Now, hearing the implication in Tang Mengyun’s words that something might have occurred with Zhu Fei, Gu Tianyu felt a sudden anxiety.
"Um, Director Gu, it happened like this..."
Upon saying this, Tang Mengyun detailed the entire incident that had just occurred with Zhu Fei.
Of course, the facts she described were all from Zhu Fei’s perspective.
Hearing this, Gu Tianyu became suddenly furious, turning to Li Wei with a very displeased face, "Principal Li, what on earth does Feng Guohua think he’s doing?"
"Just over a fight, such a trivial matter, he wants to expel a student who’s about to take the college entrance exam? And that too when the mistake was on the other party’s side. When did the school leadership’s work become so frivolous?"
Gu Tianyu’s outburst startled Principal Li and the other school leaders.
But doubt still lingered in Principal Li’s heart; he remembered clearly that Tang Mengyun was usually not like this.
Not to mention that she usually doesn’t interact much with boys, even the current situation didn’t suit her usual character.
But given the circumstances, Principal Li couldn’t ponder over it. He could only explain with a forced smile, "Director Gu, please calm down. The issue indeed lies with Feng Guohua’s mishandling. I’ll have someone look into it right away."
Little did he know, Li Wei’s words only deepened the cloud on Gu Tianyu’s already stern face.
All he did was let out a heavy "hmmph," causing Principal Li and the others to jump inwardly again.
"No need to investigate. I’ve also heard of that Guo Shaonjun, the son of Guo Long from Guo Corporation. What kind of person he is, shouldn’t the school leadership be well aware?"
"Let’s go, let’s head to Senior Year, Class 1 now. Oh, and call that Feng Guohua along too. I really want to see how he plans to expel Zhu Fei in front of me!" freēwēbηovel.c૦m
With that, Gu Tianyu didn’t even glance at those present but walked straight ahead.
Watching Gu Tianyu’s retreating figure, Principal Li could only helplessly smile wryly.
However, as he passed by Tang Mengyun and Pan Tingting, he couldn’t help but whisper to Tang Mengyun softly, "You see Mengyun, you really got Uncle in a tight spot this time."
"That... that, Uncle Li, sorry, I didn’t mean to."
Hearing Li Wei’s whisper, Tang Mengyun also felt a bit embarrassed.
No matter how one looked at it, Li Wei was, in a sense, her father’s friend.
Now, for Zhu Fei, to teach Feng Guohua and Guo Shaonjun a lesson, she had inadvertently dragged Li Wei into it, giving rise to some remorse within her.
"Hehe, never mind, but I see you care quite a bit about Zhu Fei. Let it be, I’ll pretend I don’t know about this."
As he spoke, Li Wei took a deep look at Tang Mengyun, then shook his head and hurried after Gu Tianyu.
...
After leaving the guidance office, Zhu Fei did not leave the school but went directly to his classroom in Senior Year, Class 1.
As soon as he entered the classroom, Zhu Fei went straight to his desk, took out the study notes Tang Mengyun had given him earlier, and began flipping through them.
As for the various looks cast his way at this time, Zhu Fei chose to ignore them completely, not caring at all.
Time ticked away, and just as the bell for class rang outside the classroom, Gu Tianyu, Li Wei, Tang Mengyun, and others also arrived at the entrance of Senior Class One.
Upon reaching the entrance of Senior Class One, Tang Mengyun took the initiative to point out Zhu Fei’s location to Gu Tianyu.
Gu Tianyu nodded with a smile, then said to Tang Mengyun, "Tang, could you and Pan please go to the classroom and call Zhu Fei, tell him someone is looking for him, and then you can go to your own class."
Hearing Gu Tianyu’s words, Tang Mengyun and Pan Tingting did not hesitate, stepped into the classroom, and soon approached Zhu Fei’s seat.
Before Tang Mengyun could do anything, Pan Tingting had already knocked on Zhu Fei’s desk and pointed outside the window, saying, "Zhu Fei, someone outside is looking for you. It’s Director Gu from the Education Bureau. Could you come out for a moment?"
"By the way, once this matter is resolved, you should really thank us, Mengyun. She spoke up for you before, you know."
"Tingting, what are you talking about? When did I do that? Director Gu came here specifically to see Zhu Fei; what does that have to do with me?"
Tang Mengyun’s cheeks flushed slightly as she glared at Pan Tingting.
"Hmph! Don’t deny it. If it weren’t for you, how would Director Gu have known about Zhu Fei’s situation so soon? And how could he say in front of so many people that he wanted to deal with Feng Guohua?"
"I think you’re silly, clearly helping someone, yet not knowing how to claim credit..."
Listening to the sudden exchange between the two girls in front of him, Zhu Fei was also somewhat astonished.
In fact, Zhu Fei had already been aware of the group of people in the hallway and the two girls coming his way.
However, he hadn’t understood a word of the girls’ conversation just now.
What Director Gu? Taking care of himself? Since when did he know any Director Gu?
Thinking that, Zhu Fei couldn’t help but look up with confusion and said to Tang Mengyun, "Mengyun, what are you talking about? Are you saying those people outside came looking for me?"
Startled by Zhu Fei’s question, Tang Mengyun and Pan Tingting stopped their teasing and a hint of confusion also appeared in their eyes.
However, they didn’t ask further questions at that moment, and Tang Mengyun simply nodded and said, "Yes, the person looking for you is named Gu Tianyu. He’s the head of our Lan City Education Bureau. You should go out now, he seems to need you for something."
"Oh."
Zhu Fei nodded his head, a spark of realization crossing his mind as if he had just thought of something.
He then stood up and suddenly gave Tang Mengyun a smile.
"Mengyun, no matter what, I have to thank you."
After that, Zhu Fei walked straight out of the classroom and approached Gu Tianyu, Li Wei, and the others.
Seeing Zhu Fei come out, Gu Tianyu immediately stepped forward with a smile and kindly said to Zhu Fei, "You must be Zhu Fei, right? Haha, I’m Gu Tianyu. Someone asked me to look after you. How is it? Are you getting used to the school?"
As soon as Gu Tianyu finished speaking, the faces of the accompanying Li Wei and others immediately showed nervous expressions, as if fearing they would hear something they did not want to from Zhu Fei’s mouth.
At that moment, the anxious expressions that flashed across the faces of Li Wei and others naturally did not escape Zhu Fei’s eyes.
He gently smiled and replied, "Well, it’s fine, except for certain people. Overall, I feel quite well studying at this school."
"Phew—"
Hearing Zhu Fei’s response, a sigh of relief finally escaped the hearts of Li Wei and the others.
They clearly understood whom Zhu Fei had referred to as "certain people," but what did that have to do with them?
At this point, as long as Zhu Fei didn’t speak ill of anything else at Lan City No.1 High School, they were fully content.
With that thought, their gaze toward Zhu Fei unconsciously carried a trace of gratitude.
"Principal Li, were you looking for me?"
Just at this moment, a person suddenly came running from not far away, and from the look of it, it couldn’t be anyone but the guidance counselor, Feng Guohua.
With his forehead drenched in sweat and his face slightly pale, the hint of panic between his brows became more evident.
Clearly, Feng Guohua was somewhat aware of the events that had transpired earlier.
As Feng Guohua approached the group, his vision darkened again upon clearly seeing the situation before him, and the cold sweat on his forehead flowed even more freely.
However, at this time, Li Wei had no intention of allowing him to speak. He simply raised his hand and pointed toward Gu Tianyu, his tone indifferent, "It wasn’t me who wanted to speak with you but our Education Bureau’s Director Gu. Whatever it is, you should talk to Director Gu directly."
"Hmm, are you Director Feng? Really wielding a lot of ’official’ power huh, wanting to expel whomever you please. Why don’t you just go ahead and expel me from my director position too, what do you think?"
At that moment, Gu Tianyu had already turned his head, his eyes piercing as he looked at Feng Guohua, his voice devoid of any emotion.
