She hadn’t understood the situation at all, immediately assuming Zhao Qi was beaten, clearly showing favoritism. However, Zhao Qi didn’t take the opportunity to elaborate and instead remained silent.
Normally this would be fine, but half the people in the office were his subordinates who usually called him “big brother”.
Zhao Qi had just threatened to deal with Luo Yingbai, and now he was running to the teacher to complain about being beaten by this “pretty boy”? He still had some pride!
“Teacher, this is actually a misunderstanding,” Luo Yingbai said, taking the opportunity to explain. “Zhao Qi and I accidentally bumped into each other while walking, and we both became a bit unhappy, leading to a small conflict. Nothing more.”
Luo Yingbai took the opportunity to break free from Zhao Qi and complained to Zou Ying: “Teacher, this is what happened just now. Look, he hit someone for no reason.”
Zhao Qi: “…”
“What are you all making a fuss about?” As everyone was in chaos, another teacher walked in from outside the office, frowning and looking at Zou Ying with a very dissatisfied expression. The students were about to fight, and she was just standing by and not intervening?
This slightly overweight man was the director of this office. Zou Ying was startled, and quickly stood up with an apologetic smile: “Director Zhang, it’s nothing. The students have a small conflict, and I’m mediating.”
Director Zhang’s gaze paused on Zhao Qi’s face. The weather was getting a bit warm, and the office doors were open. He had seen from the hallway that Zhao Qi was grabbing Luo Yingbai’s collar before being stopped.
In Director Zhang’s view, there was nothing to mediate.
The one trying to hit was tall and strong, while the one being grabbed was gentle and refined – it was clear who was causing trouble. He knew exactly who Zhao Qi was, with the same bad temperament as his uncle, absolutely in need of discipline.
Director Zhang frowned and criticized Zhao Qi in front of everyone, then waved his hand: “You can all leave. It was just a small conflict, don’t make a big deal out of it.”
After speaking, he gave Zou Ying a fierce glare.
