The students from Class 7 continued with a mocking tone, “1 think you’re doing a great job managing things. It’s quite impressive. We’ve all learned from you… obscuring the truth, being biased and credulous, belittling others, bullying the weak, relying on age to show off, not respecting the young, acting old and outdated…”
The Class 7 students all lowered their heads and counted on their fingers the idioms they had learned that described the higher-ups’ negative traits.
Qiu Yonggen’s eyelids were twitching from anger, and he couldn’t help but retort, “And where’s Xing Han? With such a big incident, the head of the department has vanished?”
However, just as Qiu Yonggen finished speaking, a voice sounded from outside, “What’s the rush? I’m here.”
Speak of the devil. Xing Han’s voice came from outside, and at the same time, he said, “Mr. Ye, please come in.”
As soon as the five words were spoken, everyone inside the office felt uneasy. Everyone except Rong Qi, quickly lowered her head and retreated into the crowd.
“Do you have a mask?” Rong Qi nudged Han Ning and asked.
Han Ning frowned, looking puzzled as he fished a new mask out of his pocket. He said, “It’s new, I haven’t used it yet. What’s wrong?”
“Cough, cough… It’s nothing, 1 have social anxiety. 1 get scared when I see a crowd,” Rong Qi said and quickly put on the mask.
‘Damn it, Xing Han had seen me before. I hadn’t disguised myself too much when I went to find Xing Han and Principal Zhang. 1 better hide my face.’ Rong Qi thought.
Han Ning couldn’t help but roll his eyes. From the moment they came in until now, he hadn’t noticed that she had social anxiety. He thought Rong Qi’s reason was too far-fetched.
Xing Han had arrived and brought two others with him. The people blocking the door automatically made way. However, when they saw the person in the wheelchair, they were all shocked.
Han Ning couldn��t help but squint and thought, ‘Damn, isn’t that the financial backer behind Rong Qi? Is he the one Rong Qi was calling earlier? Has Rong Qi really been taken care of by someone?’
As soon as Ye Nanshen entered the office, the small space instantly felt even more cramped. From the moment he walked in, his gaze remained on Rong Qi, a hint of a smile in his eyes. He thought, ‘She knew I’m coming. But why is she wearing a mask? On second thought, Rong Qi with a mask does resemble Shanon from before.’
Ye Nanshen couldn’t help but sigh for his own lack of observation. He muttered silently, ‘Why didn’t I notice it before?’
Ye Nanshen’s expression was hard to read. Qiu Yonggen and the others didn’t dare to say anything while standing there.
After a while, Qiu Yonggen carefully approached and asked, “Mr. Ye, may I ask why you’re here?”
As soon as he was interrupted, Ye Nanshen furrowed his brows and gave Qiu Yonggen a disdainful glance, frightening him into silence.
Ye Nanshen glanced at the corner where Rong Qi was and said, “The little one at home caused some trouble. So, I came to handle it. What’s the outcome?”
The last word, outcome, caused cold sweat to break out on the people in the office. They wanted to say it, but they didn’t dare to.
The momentum was as if Ye Nanshen hadn’t come to deal with things, but to acquire Capital University. No one dared to speak out.
Qiu Yonggen asked with a glimmer of hope, “Mr. Ye, are you talking about… Rong Qi?”
A smile suddenly appeared on Ye Nanshen’s face, his lips curving slightly as he lazily spoke, “What do you think?”
Though Ye Nanshen was smiling, no one in the room thought he was happy.
Sweat beaded on Qiu Yonggen’s forehead.
“What do you intend to do?” Ye Nanshen posed another life-or-death question.
Qiu Yonggen wished he could die immediately. The thought of expelling Rong Qi just now was instantly extinguished. He had thought that Rong Qi was an insignificant daughter in the Rong family, but he hadn’t expected her to have a more powerful background than the Rong family..
