Chapter 46: Sure Enough, It Was His Doing

“My apologies to you, Principal,” the secretary said, her head bowed.

The Principal had been napping with his chin cupped in his palm. He had been so astonished upon hearing the bang of the door that his arm had jerked up, causing him to hit his head on the table.

Holding his head in pain, he almost scolded the person furiously.

However, seeing that the person who had rushed in was Mu Xiaoxiao, his furious face became a smiling one.

“Student Mu, what’s the matter?” Come over and have a seat. Ms. Secretary, get a glass of juice for Student Mu over here.”

The secretary gaped in surprise. Other than Young Master Jie, it was her first time seeing the Principal fawn over a student.

“Uh, okay…”

Returning to her senses, she rushed out of the room after the Principal signaled at her with his eyes.

The Principal waved Mu Xiaoxiao over to a seat and spoke to her cordially.

Mu Xiaoxiao’s face was still burning with fury, and she refused to sit. Instead, she walked up to his table and rapped on it. “Uncle Principal, why did you fire that security guard? Is it because of me? Did Yin Shaojie order it?”

The Principal cupped his chin in both hands and studied her expression carefully. He said, “Are you unhappy with this outcome? If you are, what else do you suggest I do? Do you want his pay to be cut? Or do you want to block him from being recruited for a similar job at other schools? These are easy things to execute; with a single word, I will be able to do it.

Hearing his words, Mu Xiaoxiao wanted to burst with rage.

“Pow!” She hit the table again, but this time, she hit it too hard, causing her hand to feel a little numb. She frowned and retracted her hand.

“That’s not what I meant! I don’t want to do anything to him! Can you listen to me first?”

“Sure, sure, sure; please speak. Take a seat first and tell me about it. There’s no rush, no rush at all. Uncle Principal will listen to you no matter how long you want to talk.” The Principal humored her as though she was a little kid.

Just then, the secretary brought in the juice and placed it respectfully in front of Mu Xiaoxiao.

“Student Mu, please have a drink. Mr. Principal, if there’s nothing else, I’ll be leaving to do some work.”

The secretary went out.

The Principal smiled widely. Gesturing with his hand at the drink in front of her, he said to Mu Xiaoxiao, “Have something to drink first. You can tell me about your requests slowly.”

Mu Xiaoxiao was thirsty from her lengthy exchange with Lu Yichen. Abandoning all restraint, she took up the glass and drank the juice.

She licked her pink lips after she finished the drink.

It was a strawberry-flavored juice, and it was quite delicious! She was satisfied, and it had quenched her thirst.

Putting down the glass, she did not sit down but said immediately, “What I mean is, I don’t want him to be fired. Rehire him and let him work here again.”

The Principal looked as if he was in a tough position. “About this… it’s not something that’s easy to do; it’s an order from Young Master Jie. You should discuss this with him, I feel, and then tell me about it once you have arrived at a conclusion, okay?”

Of course, this was Yin Shaojie’s doing!

Mu Xiaoxiao’s face was gloomy.

She said, “His reason for firing the security guard was because he wanted to stand up for me, so it wouldn’t matter if I don’t mind it. Uncle Principal, let the man come back to work here, okay? Please?”

“This…” The Principal sat in his chair with his fingers crossed, looking indecisive.

“No — !”

A domineering voice interrupted suddenly. Yin Shaojie, pushed open the door and entered, his expression cold and his countenance like that of a king. His aura was impossible to ignore.
