Watching Shu Lulu laugh through her tears, Chu Ge breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed he had come at the right time after all, and not too late either.

He patted Shu Lulu's shoulder again, then turned around and set his sights on the man in a sharp suit but with a disheveled shirt, a tie thrown onto the sofa, and a face full of righteousness still staring blankly at the door.

"This teacher?"

When Chu Ge's voice rang in his ear, only then did Qi Shuyuan snap back to reality. He swallowed instinctively, took a few steps back, and finally met Chu Ge's gaze.

"Who... who are you?" Qi Shuyuan took a hurried breath, making an effort to appear calm as he asked.

"I'm her uncle. Now, Mr. Teacher, how should I address you?" Sitting on the sofa next to Shu Lulu, Chu Ge asked politely.

"I'm the Director of Discipline at No. 3 School, you can call me Director Qi."

"Oh, hello Director Qi, may I ask, what exactly happened with our Lulu?"

Despite being quite wary of the force Chu Ge used to kick open the door, Qi Shuyuan observed that Chu Ge was dressed plainly, spoke politely, and showed no signs of aggression. He was somewhat relieved at heart.

On second thought, this was his territory after all, and the teachers downstairs would certainly rush over after hearing such a commotion, which gave Qi Shuyuan some confidence.

"What happened? Huh! She stole a classmate's wallet!" Returning to his sanctimonious demeanor, Qi Shuyuan sat back in the chair behind the desk, and sternly said.

Chu Ge nodded with a smile and turned to Shu Lulu, "Did you steal it?"

"I didn't!" Shu Lulu immediately shook her head.

Turning his gaze back to Qi Shuyuan, Chu Ge smiled and said, "Director Qi, did you hear? Our Lulu says she didn't steal it."

"She says she didn't steal it so she didn't? I'm telling you, the evidence is already irrefutable, we've already..."

Chu Ge smiled and waved his hand, interrupting Qi Shuyuan's unfinished words, "Compared to you and your so-called evidence, I trust our Lulu more. If she says no, then it's definitely no."

Though he said it just like that, Chu Ge genuinely believed it in his heart.

If Shu Lulu really wasn't living a clean life, she could have taken advantage of her youth and beauty when Liu Weijiang was pestering her, to gain various benefits from him.

Why else would she have come to him, looking like she wanted to give back the iPhone 5S that Liu Weijiang gave her?

So, Chu Ge couldn't be bothered to listen to any bullshit evidence; even using his toes to think, he knew this was clearly a setup to frame Shu Lulu.

Hearing Chu Ge say this, Shu Lulu's tears, which she had only just managed to stop, began flowing again.

She had always thought Chu Ge didn't like her, but to her surprise, when she needed help, Chu Ge not only showed up, but also brought with him unconditional trust in her.

The same words sounded completely different to Qi Shuyuan's ears.

Damn, this inexplicable young guy who had appeared out of nowhere clearly didn't take him, the Director of Discipline, seriously!

"Parent, I must warn you to watch your tone, this is a society based on evidence and the rule of law. I warn you, don't mess with me here!"

Banging the table with a "smack," Qi Shuyuan said angrily.

Chu Ge curled his lips into a smile, got up slowly from the sofa, took a few steps forward, leaned on the table with both hands, leaned forward slightly and gazing at Qi Shuyuan asked, "Sorry, that's just the way I am. And, I want to ask, what does the school plan to do about this so-called nonexistent matter?"

"Expel Shu Lulu from school! And send her to the police station!"

Facing Chu Ge's gaze at close range, Qi Shuyuan instinctively felt a sense of danger, but when he heard the faint sounds of footsteps on the stairs, knowing someone was about to arrive, he mustered up his courage again and said with a sneer.

Chu Ge nodded and asked again, "Oh, and what if I disagree with your decision?"

"Crazy! I have no time to waste words with you!"

Saying it impatiently, Qi Shuyuan picked up the phone, intending to call the police since he had been interrupted by Chu Ge.

But before he could dial, Chu Ge bent down, took off one of his sandals, and placed it on Qi Shuyuan's desk.

"What are you doing..."

Before Qi Shuyuan could finish his sentence, Chu Ge suddenly grabbed his hair without warning and slammed his face down onto the sandal on the table.

In less than a second, a dull "thud" echoed in the room as Qi Shuyuan's nose pressed tightly against the sole of Chu Ge's shoe.

After pressing for about two seconds, Chu Ge finally released his hand. Qi Shuyuan jerked his head up, his face had turned the color of a pig's liver from holding his breath.

"You..."

Chu Ge gave Qi Shuyuan only enough time to say one word before suddenly grabbing his wrist again and slamming it hard onto the sandal on the table.

When Qi Shuyuan's right wrist was caught by Chu Ge, it felt as though it was clamped tightly by a pair of iron pliers. His facial features twisted in pain, and his right hand instinctively loosened, dropping the phone with a "clang" to the ground.

At the same time, his right palm was firmly pressed against the sole of Chu Ge's shoe, right after his face.

Chu Ge's sudden and inexplicable action stunned Qi Shuyuan and even Shu Lulu as well.

Before they could snap out of it, Chu Ge had picked up the sandal from the table and swung the sole at Qi Shuyuan's somewhat contorted face with a resounding slap.

"Slap!" The crisp sound resonated.

"Slap!" After hitting the right cheek, he hit the left cheek.

"Slap slap slap slap slap..."

Standing at the table, Chu Ge wielded the sandal with both hands, his right hand swinging quickly back and forth, and no one could tell how many times he had struck. The intense smacking sounds seemed to blend into one continuous noise!

Finally, when Qi Shuyuan's face swelled to a pig's head at a visible speed, Chu Ge stopped in satisfaction. Smirking, he tossed the sandal to the ground and slipped his foot into it.

As he leisurely put on his shoe, several teachers rushing from the third floor arrived at the office door. They first glanced in shock at the door panel on the ground, then even more shockingly at Qi Shuyuan's pig-headed face.

"You... you dare hit me?"

Staring wide-eyed at Chu Ge, who looked calm and indifferent as if nothing had happened, Qi Shuyuan opened his lips, now resembling two pieces of sausage, spit out a mouthful of blood, and then shouted in disbelief.

As his voice rang out, he realized that even his voice sounded altered. Just moving his lips felt like pulling a thread that affected his entire body, leaving his pig-headed face burning in pain.

Without immediately responding to Qi Shuyuan's voice, Chu Ge leisurely sat back on the sofa and smiled at Shu Lulu, who was utterly dumbfounded. Then he turned back and unhurriedly asked, "Where's the evidence?"

Qi Shuyuan was nearly exploding with anger, no longer caring about the burning pain on his face. He sharply pointed at the few teachers at the door, staring with bloodshot eyes, almost yelling, "Do you think they're all blind?"

Chu Ge smiled slightly, "Are you sure they saw anything?"

In fact, those teachers hadn't seen anything.

While the teachers exchanged bewildered looks and saw in each other's eyes a glimpse of disbelief, Chu Ge had already pulled out the Apple 5S Liu Weijiang gave him, crossed his legs on the sofa, and dialed Liu Weijiang's number.

"Chu... Young Master Chu?" The phone rang only once before Liu Weijiang's somewhat apprehensive voice came to the ear.

"Hehe, I have something to ask of you. Do you have time now?"

"Yes, yes, yes! Young Master Chu, just say the word."

"Come to the third high school, I'm in the office on the fourth floor."

"Okay, okay, okay! I'll be there right away!"

Amidst stares as if looking at a monster, Chu Ge hung up the phone. He fetched two paper cups from the water dispenser cabinet in the room, filled them with water, and handed one to Shu Lulu while keeping one for himself.

He moved naturally as if he were at home, completely ignoring the presence of all others.

Instinctively taking the paper cup Chu Ge handed over, Shu Lulu opened her mouth but found herself at a loss for words, her mind going utterly blank.

"By the way, Director Qi, let's continue talking about Shu Lulu's situation. As I said, if you want to expel her from school, I won't agree. Can we discuss it calmly once more?"

Sipping a mouthful of water from the paper cup, Chu Ge raised his head, looked at Qi Shuyuan's vividly expressive face, and said leisurely.

"Maniac! Where the hell did this lunatic come from? Who exactly did he just call?"

Seeing Chu Ge's composed demeanor, Qi Shuyuan finally felt that something was amiss. His bloodshot eyes, filled with rage, now had a tinge of suspicion.

Initially, upon seeing Chu Ge, Qi Shuyuan categorized him as one of those good-for-nothing parents. After all, he had been the student affairs director for several years, having met countless parents. He thought he could discern at a glance who were the prominent figures and who were the insignificant commoners.

But at this moment, he wasn't so sure if his self-proclaimed discerning eyes had made a mistake.

While Qi Shuyuan was suppressing the burning pain on his face and internally conflicted about what to do, his brother, Qi Shuheng, who was in class with the senior third year students, also arrived at the office door, adjusting his thick, bottle-bottom-like glasses and peered inside the room.
