Mu Liuchuan didn't feel that there was anything wrong at all.
He was like the most common capable youth in society. His every move was appropriate and generous.
First, she shook hands with Director Zhao very familiarly and reasoned with him sincerely. "Headmaster, I'm really sorry. I initially came to visit you specially. I didn't expect to meet Qiqi here. Qiqi indeed has a deep relationship with me. She made a mistake and violated the school rules. I can't sit idle and remain indifferent…"
"You really know her? And you have a deep relationship with her?" Director Zhao frowned.
The Mu family was a noble family with status in the Imperial Capital. This country girl actually knew the eldest young master of the Mu family?
What the heck!
"Yes, she's my future—"
Before Mu Liuchuan could say the word "wife", he was abruptly interrupted.
"I'm sorry, but I don't know you!"
Gu Qiqi looked at him coldly. Her gaze was so cold that it was as if she was looking at a stranger.
Mu Liuchuan's eyes stung.
He remembered that a few days ago, Gu Qiqi was taken away by a man's luxury car and he couldn't even catch up to her.
Was she so cold to her because of that rich and powerful old man?
How good would it be if she could be a tenth as gentle as Xuexue?
"Qiqi… Don't mess around. You might not know the authority of the discipline office yet. Director Zhao is the highest authority in charge of student discipline. Even the principal can't change his words. Hurry up and admit your mistake to Director Zhao. I'll help you convince him to be especially generous and not expel you…"
Mu Liuchuan spoke beautifully and gave Director Zhao face. Director Zhao felt very comfortable listening to him.
Although he had decided to punish Gu Qiqi ruthlessly today, the evidence wasn't that sufficient after all.
If Gu Qiqi was willing to lower her head and admit her mistake, he could also consider giving the Mu family's young master face and teach her a small lesson first.
Anyway, it would be easy to catch her mistakes in the future under his watch.
When Young Master Mu wasn't paying attention, it wouldn't be difficult to get her expelled.
Director Zhao made up his mind and was about to accept Gu Qiqi's apology.
To his surprise, the girl's cold reply traveled to his ears. "What did I do wrong? Why don't I know?"
Damn it! What an ungrateful thing!
He actually refused to give her face. Then, he shouldn't blame him for being ruthless.
Seeing Director Zhao's expression darken, Mu Liuchuan frowned.
Qiqi was just too stubborn.
She didn't know how to be flexible at all.
This was the Imperial Capital. How could it compare to a rural place like Qing Cheng?
She had to adapt to people's personalities…
What was the big deal about admitting her mistake? Wasn't studying more important? Wasn't she bent on going to Imperial Medical University?
If she didn't lower her head to Head Zhao, does that mean she didn't want to study anymore?
Mu Liuchuan simply couldn't understand.
However, when he met Gu Qiqi's cold eyes, the purity and persistence in them made him feel inferior for a moment.
Those were a pair of eyes that had not been corrupted by the world yet. They also had faith and dignity.
Unlike him, who had long tasted servitude and loss of principles for business.
Mu Liuchuan gnashed his teeth and turned his head away. He said to Director Zhao, "I've really caused you trouble. I've also roughly understood what happened just now. It was indeed Qiqi's fault for hitting someone. Qiqi is shy. She's young and insensible. Let me apologize on her behalf!"
As she spoke, he was about to bow and apologize to Director Zhao.
Director Zhao was surprised.
He never expected Mu Liuchuan to do this for Gu Qiqi.
In the very next second.
A small fair hand blocked Mu Liuchuan so that he couldn't bow at all.
"Who allowed you to make a decision for me? You're not worthy!"
