...

Chen Pangzi, consumed by rage, had his chubby face contorted into something quite ferocious, with beads of sweat dropping down like they cost nothing…

This Fatty had a problem that terribly affected his image, or else he wouldn't be stuck mingling within the school rather than holding a position in a governmental department.

When Chen Pangzi got angry, he really tossed all caution to the wind, he immediately handcuffed Qin Fang's hand, the one holding the cell phone, with a clack, and just like that, Qin Fang was cuffed.

Almost at the same moment the handcuffs snapped shut, Qin Fang's phone dialed a number.

...

Others may not know, but Chen Pangzi was a case of a family member aware of his own kin's matters; his rise to the position of vice principal, with an administrative grade leaping to the department level, had absolutely nothing to do with his personal ability. It was entirely because someone was supporting him from the shadows that he managed such a transition.

To be more specific, it was Chen Pangzi's brother-in-law, a significant figure with a particularly distinguished position, who, although not so fond of Chen Pangzi, had this connection in place. There were always people willing to help Chen Pangzi, and with this, plus some luck and opportunity, he was able to climb to the position he held today.

Although called a vice principal, Chen Pangzi was the one with the least power among them, just a title holder in name only. He really lacked actual authority, and despite his loudmouth claims of wanting to expel this student or that, he truly didn't possess that power…

It was precisely because of his lack of power that he cared so much about this collaboration. Now, with Tanaka being beaten and Xiao Chuan threatening to terminate the partnership, Chen Pangzi had to take a risky move. By dealing with Qin Fang and having the "little devils" blow off some steam, the collaboration could continue and naturally, he'd be able to rake in money.

Having a big backer, Chen Pangzi, though a bit apprehensive, didn't think too much of it. In his opinion, Qin Fang was just an insignificant student, whose potential background was of no use. Could it possibly be bigger than his brother-in-law's?

Unless it was a top-tier heir from the Capital City, the kind Chen Pangzi truly wouldn't dare provoke, as even his brother-in-law would find it troublesome. But would such a person mingle with these poor students, having meals and drinks together?

Not to mention personally beating Tanaka, some people would lend a hand in that…

Thinking this way, Chen Pangzi felt much more at ease, and naturally his apprehensions faded away, as he went ahead and handcuffed Qin Fang.

"Director Xing, is this how your police handle cases?"

With one hand cuffed, Qin Fang was still composed as he turned his face towards Director Xing, whose face had taken on a somewhat gloomy shade, and asked with amusement.

"This…"

Director Xing really didn't look too pleased.

Not to mention Qin Fang's possible complex identity, just with this case alone, whether to use handcuffs was debatable. But for someone who wasn't police to snatch a pair of handcuffs and cuff Qin Fang, the suspect… It was really becoming hard to explain!

If Qin Fang decided to not let go of this matter, it could mean Director Xing might not be able to stay in his position. He might even have trouble keeping his job!

As a police officer, if someone could easily snatch away your handcuffs, the same could be said for your gun. If you can't keep your own belongings safe, how can you be expected to fight evil and punish the wicked?

"Forget it, I won't trouble you anymore…"

Seeing Director Xing's awkward expression, Qin Fang didn't feel like teasing him anymore. Just then, the call connected, and of course, Qin Fang couldn't keep the person on the line waiting.

"Fourth Brother, what are you busy with?"

Qin Fang promptly put Chen Pangzi aside and spoke leisurely on the phone.

The call was to Fourth Brother, who was actually one of the brothers Qin Fang had met after coming to the Capital City; he was Qiao Zhenfei's crowd. Nowadays, Qin Fang was ranked as the youngest, and Fourth Brother was the Lu Jun he had met.

"Youngest, what's up? What brings you to call me today?"

Lu Jun was somewhat surprised to receive a call from Qin Fang, considering they had even planned to meet before Qin Fang left the city; they all had their own busy lives.

"Heh, surely you know I wouldn't come to the temple without a cause... I need a little favor!"

Qin Fang spoke somewhat sheepishly.

"Alright, tell me…"

Lu Jun didn't hesitate but immediately sat down to listen.

"So here's the thing. I was over at Capital University having a meal when, coincidentally…"

In front of Chen Pangzi, the Japanese Xiao Chuan, and Director Xing, Qin Fang went ahead and roughly explained what had happened to Lu Jun, of course not forgetting to mention Chen Pangzi, the deputy principal of Capital University.

"I'll ask about this for you... Pass the phone to the leading cop..."

After hearing this, Lu Jun couldn't help but chuckle, teasing Qin Fang about his "good luck," yet he still took the initiative to help Qin fix this troublesome situation.

"Director Xing, there's a call for you..."

Qin Fang smiled and handed his mobile phone to Director Xing.

At this point, Chen Pangzi also vaguely felt that something was amiss. Though he hadn't figured out whom Qin Fang had sought for help, judging from Qin Fang's composed tone, it seemed like Qin Fang's connections were far from ordinary.

Director Xing, who took Qin Fang's phone with some skepticism, started listening to the call, and his expression changed immediately. He quickly walked to a corner to continue the conversation, all the while seeming to explain something. Shortly after, he returned and respectfully handed the phone back to Qin Fang.

Seeing that the call had not been disconnected, Qin Fang immediately picked it up.

"Chu Zongyuan is your brother-in-law, right..."

But before he could say much, Qin Fang, holding his phone, suddenly turned to Chen Pangzi and asked a question.

"Uh... yes!"

Chen Pangzi was slightly taken aback, obviously caught off guard, but he still responded subconsciously.

By the time he realized what had happened, his chubby face had already changed color. He rarely told anyone who his brother-in-law was, mainly because his brother-in-law did not think highly of him as a brother-in-law.

Now that Qin Fang had figured out his backer with just a phone call and still appeared so indifferent, Chen Pangzi, no matter how foolish, sensed that the situation might have changed.

Or rather, it had gradually exceeded the scope of what he could control...

Thinking of this, Chen Pangzi glanced at the shiny handcuffs on Qin Fang's wrist, and he couldn't help feeling uneasy.

"That... that, Xiao Qin, I think... there seems to be a bit of a misunderstanding..."

The more Chen Pangzi thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong. He couldn't summon his courage, and seeing Qin Fang picking up the phone as if about to call someone, he became more flustered.

In his panic, he became disordered. Now his thoughts weren't about standing up for himself or seeking revenge for Xiao Chuan and Tanaka; he vaguely felt that this time he might be in trouble too. For the sake of his career and position, he had to reluctantly bow his corpulent head...

Chen Pangzi's chubby face now sported a brilliant but bitter smile, his facial flesh bunched together, making him look particularly frightening... Even the tone of his speech became unusually gentle, and calling "Xiao Qin" so affectionately almost made Qin Fang stumble and fall.

Qin Fang gave the Fatty a sideways glance, thinking, "Am I that familiar with you? Your affectionate calling..."

However, outwardly, Qin remained impassive, giving Chen Pangzi a sidelong look, "I say, Principal Chen, what's gotten into you? Just a moment ago, you were swearing to put me behind bars and show me a lesson... How come within such a short time, you've suddenly changed your tune?"

"This... this... this is all a misunderstanding! Misunderstanding..."

Chen Pangzi was left speechless by Qin Fang's retort, which would normally be combatted with slamming the table or smashing a stool, calling for a scene. But now, he clearly didn't have the courage to do so, and could only meekly negotiate with Qin Fang, hoping to put this incident behind them.

Especially upon seeing the handcuffs on Qin's wrist, his complexion appeared extremely panicky and hesitant. If Qin's background was genuinely powerful, then he had indeed caused a catastrophe.

"Misunderstanding... Quite a big misunderstanding indeed..."

Upon hearing this, Qin Fang scoffed coldly in amusement, and at that moment his phone began to ring. He checked the number and his smile grew even brighter.

Ignoring Chen Pangzi, he directly answered the call and put the phone to his ear. The caller was none other than Qiao Zhenfei—the Third Young Master—Qiao Sanshao, who had the best relationship with Qin Fang.

He naturally called concerning Qin's situation, and when Lu Jun got a clear picture, he directly advised Qin, "Chu Zongyuan is a man of the Qiao Family, and for this kind of thing, Third Brother is the most suitable..."

Originally, Qin had sought Lu Jun's help because Lu Jun worked at the State Council, and Lu's father had retired from being the second-highest leader in the nation, with significant influence in this sphere.

To act against Chen Pangzi, approaching from this angle seemed quite appropriate.

Only by chance did he find out that Chen Pangzi had solid backing too, and what's more, that Chen's brother-in-law was actually a member of the Qiao Family, which made things much easier.

Therefore, as soon as Qin's call ended, Lu Jun called Qiao Zhenfei to inform him of the matter, for it was more appropriate for Qiao Zhenfei to handle it.

"Your kid's troubles are truly not ordinary, casually stepping out and you bump into these kinds of petty issues..."

As soon as the call connected, Qiao Zhenfei berated Qin jovially, and indeed, just as he said, there was hardly a day when Qin didn't give people a headache, either stumbling into one situation or encountering another hassle—he could hardly keep up with cleaning up after him.

Of course, it was a jest; the number of times he actually had to clean up after Qin could be counted on one hand, and it was only because Qin shared a good bond with him. Otherwise, why wouldn't he ask someone from the Old Tang Family for help? (To be continued.
