Hearing what Huo Tianzun said, everyone immediately wailed in dismay yet couldn’t resist scratching their chests and hearts out of intense curiosity.
It was clear that the boss cared a lot about the person in question—who could have possibly tamed such a fiend?
So, after Huo Tianzun left, people quickly surrounded Zhou Yi, "President Zhou, what’s going on? What does sister-in-law look like? Spill the beans!"
Hearing this, Zhou Yi helplessly said, "There’s no use asking me; I haven’t seen her in person either."
"But the boss said you could vouch for him!" Sun Yi didn’t buy it.
"It’s true. Remember that video conference the other day? The boss suddenly covered the camera. It wasn’t until the end of the meeting, when I was about to close the laptop, that I saw there seemed to be a woman sitting on the boss’s lap..." Zhou Yi explained.
At these words, everyone immediately began to clamor excitedly, "Holy shit! She was sitting on his thigh! There must be something fishy going on!"
"I never would have imagined the boss was like that! Keeping a beauty hidden!"
"Should we ambush the boss’s apartment someday? If we all visit together, he can’t possibly kick us out, right?"
Hearing this, Zhou Yi glanced at everyone, "I need to make an appointment even to visit the boss’s apartment, and you’re all thinking of going together? You’d definitely be kicked out. Enough of this gossip; you might as well go program something. If you really can’t focus on coding, go find a wife for yourself!"
No sooner had he finished than everyone looked at Zhou Yi with contempt, "President Zhou, don’t talk as if you have a wife yourself."
Hearing this, Zhou Yi was momentarily at a loss for words and then glared at the crowd.
So what if I don’t have a wife? I have money!
Just watch, I’ll go on blind dates and find a rich and beautiful lady!
As Qianxun had just gotten on the bus, Lin Yuwei leaned in and whispered, "Su Qianxun, did you know that Qin Siyu’s father has been put under observation for punishment?"
Although she didn’t concern herself with her father’s affairs, she was aware that Qin Jun was her father’s rival. She hadn’t expected that he would crumble this time because of Qin Siyu.
The last incident at the Qin Family had stirred up such a fuss and yet had not touched him.
But this time, what a mess—he was ruined by his own daughter.
Luckily, she always behaved modestly in school and didn’t offend her classmates, otherwise, she might as well tell her father to just go back to farming early if she had been like Qin Siyu.
Hearing this, Qianxun smiled faintly and said, "What’s so strange about that? ’To neglect teaching one’s child is the parent’s fault.’ Since Qin Siyu is like that, Qin Jun certainly bears responsibility."
If it weren’t known before, it was now after causing such trouble. Not to mention the higher-ups, even the citizens of S city wouldn’t trust Qin Jun to be their mayor, would they?
Lin Yuwei, upon hearing Qianxun’s response, couldn’t help but pout. She sounded just like her father.
But when they arrived at school, they heard yet another big piece of gossip.
"Hey, have you heard? The math department head at No. 3 Middle School, Wu De was his name, true to his name, indecent. Last night he molested the principal’s daughter and got caught! Such people are simply a disgrace to teachers! He’s tainted the nation’s flowers!" said a boy angrily.
Upon hearing this, Qianxun felt a stir in her heart.
Li Qingting, quite efficient indeed.
But what surprised Qianxun came after: the next day, news spread that Wu De had drunkenly stumbled into a river and drowned.
The next time Qianxun saw Li Qingting was on the evening of the day when the news of Wu De’s death broke.
It was a Friday, and the school would be closed for the weekend.
She was still wearing the No. 3 Middle School uniform, her face very pale. Her eyes, still filled with terror, lit up when she saw Qianxun.
