[Seeking Recommendations] 23: Chapter 23 Where to Reason?
[Seeking Recommendations] Huh?
Did I brush my teeth?
Is this guy seriously asking me if I brushed my teeth?
Tang Xiaoxiao was a picture of embarrassment, her anger flaring as she lifted her leg and kicked towards Li Chen.
Li Chen dodged to the side, narrowly avoiding the kick.
Seeing her kick miss, Tang Xiaoxiao grabbed Li Chen’s arm, attempting to throw him over her shoulder in a fit of rage.
Unfortunately, she still missed as Li Chen skillfully dodged again.
She was left panting and out of breath, not only failing to hit Li Chen but not even grazing his clothes.
Li Chen paused briefly, gathering his thoughts, and said, “Ms.
Tang, the world is so wonderful, yet you are so irritable.
Annoyed at being released by Li Chen, Tang Xiaoxiao lifted her leg to kick at Li Chen again.
Just then, the iron door of the interrogation room creaked open.
A middle-aged man in his forties saw Tang Xiaoxiao about to raise her long leg and scolded angrily, “Tang Xiaoxiao, what do you think you’re doing?
The higher-ups have repeatedly ordered no torture during interrogations.
Why don’t you listen?”
Before Tang Xiaoxiao could finish her sentence, Li Chen purposely put on a deeply aggrieved face and cried out, “Director, you’ve finally arrived.
You must uphold justice for me!
Just now, this officer has hit me more than a hundred fists.
She almost beat me to death!”
Seeing Li Chen tattling first, Tang Xiaoxiao hurriedly explained, “It wasn’t a hundred punches, I only hit him once.
Plus, two punches missed!”
As soon as the words left her mouth, she realized she misspoke and quickly covered her mouth with her hand.
Director Zhao’s face darkened as he pointed at Tang Xiaoxiao and chastised, “Tang Xiaoxiao, you never learn from your mistakes.
You won’t need to come to work for the next few days.
Go home and reflect, and write a self-critique of three thousand words.
Hand it to me when you come to work next Monday!”
“Director, it was him…”
“Enough, don’t say any more.
Little Wang has already told me everything.
Was it necessary to be so harsh over such a trivial matter?”
Tang Xiaoxiao felt extremely wronged.
She was bullied by Li Chen, and now she had to write a three-thousand-word self-critique.
Where could she even start to reason with this?
With that said, he gestured toward Little Wang and then pointed at Li Chen, “Little Wang, take him away and notify his family to come and pick him up!”
Hearing the words about notifying a guardian, it was Li Chen’s turn to be stunned!
Stop joking, if Ye Chuxue found out about this, she would die laughing.
After thinking it over, Li Chen felt there was only one person suited for the task…
