From Su Linlang's expression, it wasn't hard to tell she was hesitant and didn't want to get him involved.

It seemed like it wasn't a minor issue.

Chen Xuan didn't press further; he didn't want to force Su Linlang.

"Linlang, I'm going out to buy a pack of cigarettes, I'll be back soon."

Chen Xuan said with a smile, then turned and walked out of the apartment.

He dialed Jin Jiu's number, "Find out where He Jian is as quickly as possible."

After speaking, he hung up the phone and smoked downstairs, waiting for news.

It wasn't long before Jin Jiu called back, "Brother Chen, he's having a barbecue with some friends on Barbecue Street."

"Got it."

Chen Xuan extinguished his cigarette and got in the car to leave.

Jin Jiu had already arrived there ahead of him, "Brother Chen, over there."

Following the direction of Jin Jiu's pointing, Chen Xuan saw He Jian, sitting next to two other men.

These were two of the six colleagues they had dined with last time.

Chen Xuan walked directly over, "He Jian."

"Chen Xuan?"

He Jian was startled, "What... what do you want? I haven't been bothering Su Linlang!"

The two others were also afraid of Chen Xuan, their expressions somewhat anxious.

"I ask you, who bullied Linlang at school today?" Chen Xuan asked coldly.

He Jian had a peculiar expression, "No one bullied her, it was just a dispute with Zhao Hongxia."

"What was the cause of the conflict? Explain the situation to me in detail." Chen Xuan lit a cigarette and sat beside He Jian.

He Jian felt uneasy all over and spoke in a low voice, "It's just that today they were selecting outstanding teachers, Su Linlang was selected, and Zhao Hongxia wasn't."

"She started badmouthing Su Linlang, and the two of them got into an argument."

"Did Zhao Hongxia get physical?" Chen Xuan took a drag and exhaled slowly.

He Jian grimaced, "Yes, a little. Zhao Hongxia lost her temper, grabbed Su Linlang's hair, and held her wrist."

"But we separated them in time, so Su Linlang didn't suffer any loss."

Bang!

Chen Xuan suddenly slammed the table, "You call that not suffering a loss? With Linlang's personality, she definitely wouldn't have initiated any physical confrontation."

He Jian didn't dare refute, muttering quietly, "Yes, from start to finish, Su Linlang tried reasoning with her and didn't get physical."

"Zhao Hongxia couldn't out argue her, so she lost her temper and went physical, pulling out some strands of Su Linlang's hair, that's how it was."

Chen Xuan was expressionless, "How did the school leaders handle this matter?"

"It wasn't reported, and they don't dare to report it either."

He Jian forced a bitter smile, "Even if it were reported, it's unlikely Zhao Hongxia would be punished."

"She has connections, she's a distant relative of the school director's family."

Ha ha!

Chen Xuan let out a cold laugh, "Who's the school director? Let me see how impressive their background is."

"Ling Family's eldest daughter, Ling Yanran, is the school director! Zhao Hongxia is the daughter of Miss Ling's second aunt's family, in terms of relations, Miss Ling still has to call Zhao Hongxia cousin!"

He Jian wore a helpless bitter smile, "What strong connections! No one can do anything to Zhao Hongxia, even the principal has to give some face!"

"This time, it was only based on teaching results that Su Linlang was selected as an outstanding teacher, which is why Zhao Hongxia wasn't, causing her dissatisfaction and taking it out on Su Linlang."

Chen Xuan understood, he thought it was a more formidable relationship, just this?

"Got it, I came tonight just to ask about this matter."

"You all enjoy your meal, I'll head out first."

Chen Xuan got up and left, not making things difficult for He Jian.

"Old He, do you think Chen Xuan will go straight to the school tomorrow and stand up for Su Linlang?"

"I think he might just do it! But who knows if he can scare Zhao Hongxia."

The two men beside him whispered, looking at He Jian.

He Jian smirked arrogantly, "Chen Xuan only has some connections with Brother Bao, but the Ling Family is one of the top families in Jiangbei City, they don't fear Zhang Zhibao."

"Besides, no matter how good Chen Xuan is with Zhang Zhibao, Zhang Zhibao wouldn't directly offend the Ling Family for him!"

"Mm, makes sense, probably Chen Xuan just came to clarify things, likely won't dare to really confront Zhao Hongxia at the school." The two nodded slightly.

At that moment, Su Linlang called Chen Xuan, "Weren't you going to buy cigarettes? Why aren't you back yet?"

"I'll be back soon, just wait a moment."

Chen Xuan accelerated and quickly returned to the apartment.

"Where did you go, taking so long?" Su Linlang asked suspiciously.

Chen Xuan softly replied, "Linlang, I went to find He Jian and figured out what happened."

"Tomorrow, I'll go to the school with you, we must settle this for you!"
