I am chasing a rough man in the 80s
Chapter 183: The Street Urchin Who Mastered Core Competitiveness

Chapter 183: Chapter 183: The Street Urchin Who Mastered Core Competitiveness

The principal never expected anyone to dare get physical with him.

Yu Jingting grabbed his collar, and the principal was hoisted up by him.

"What are you trying to do!" the principal stammered fearfully.

Throughout his many years of work, he’d never encountered anyone who dared to resort to the brute force.

"To cut you down to size."

With that, Yu Jingting brutally threw him against the wall, his knee striking upwards.

The principal howled in pain as he clutched his stomach.

"You want to lose your jobs?! Assaulting a superior is something that goes on the record!"

"Oh, really?"

Yu Jingting suddenly leaned in and murmured something only audible to the two of them.

Suizi was curious and listened with rapt attention, but she couldn’t catch what he said.

She saw the principal’s face turn deathly pale, his legs buckled, and he collapsed onto the floor.

"You, you, how did you find out?"

"No matter how I found out, is it true or not?"

The room plunged into silence.

One minute later.

"Director Xiaochen’s work performance has been pretty decent. Show some more initiative and next time I’ll nominate you for the outstanding teacher award."

The principal clambered to his feet and patted Yu Jingting’s shoulder.

"Just a misunderstanding. All a misunderstanding, haha..."

Yu Jingting quickly agreed.

"I may have remembered it wrong, so there’s nothing to it."

"The picture—-" On the verge of wringing his hands, the principal put on an ingratiating expression.

"Let’s talk about it after my wife gets the outstanding teacher award—you know her work performance. Wouldn’t she be wasted if she wasn’t recognized for her talents?"

The principal managed a twitchy smile.

While he cursed Yu Jingting’s eighteen generations of ancestors in his mind, he didn’t dare to show it and continued to grovel like a grandson.

"Alright, get out. My wife and I have more to discuss."

Yu Jingting sat on the bed with his legs crossed, waving him off. With this kind of swagger, anyone would believe he was an emperor if he told them. All that was missing was the phrase, ’You may leave now.’

The principal didn’t dare to tarry and slinked out. The instant the door closed, his smile crumbled, leaving him with a look of despair.

"How did I attract such a calamity? How am I going to handle this..."

Suizi moved closer to Yu Jingting, curiosity filling her large eyes.

"What did you say to him?"

Yu Jingting adjusted his posture and gave a smug expression.

Like a servile maid, Suizi stood at his side, extending a hand to massage his shoulders.

Finally, Yu Jingting gained a sense of dignity. He had Suizi massage first his shoulder, then his leg and finally demanded a cup of tea.

In order to sate her curiosity, a compliant Suizi brewed the tea for him.

Yu Jingting held a white enamel cup, nearly as large as Suizi’s head, and blew on the tea leaves floating on top:

"The weather’s getting cold. It’s time to close the curtains and discuss poetry and prose."

"Yu Tiegen! When will you stop?! If you keep acting the old devil, you’ll be sleeping on the floor tonight!"

Suizi was exasperated. Yu Jingting finally chuckled, put down his tea cup, pulled Suizi onto his lap, and whispered in her ear.

"What?!"

Suizi’s mouth dropped open into an ’O’ shape.

Good lord, such a thing was possible?!

The principal had previously worked at the Education Bureau.

He had an intimate relationship with a woman in the office.

Yu Jingting had just informed the principal that he had pictures of the principal fooling around with the woman.

The principal was nearly scared to death.

If this got out, not only would his future prospects be ruined, but his family would also be broken up.

The principal’s wife was away on business these days, and she was known to be a fierce woman.

If she found out, both of the principal’s legs would be broken.

"No wonder you dared to get physical. You’re not reckless..."

Suizi took a while to digest this tidbit of gossip. Who knew city folks were into such wild things?

"Did you think I was so stupid that even when I knew someone was plotting against my wife, I’d still foolishly feed her to their mouth?"

Yu Jingting chuckled.

The day Suizi reported to work, when the principal had sent him away, he had caught a glimpse of the old man trying to touch Suizi’s leg several times through the window.

Yu Jingting smashing his window was just him releasing his anger.

He knew that if he didn’t deal with this cunning old man, he would find ways to take advantage of Suizi in the future.

"Although I don’t think this job is that great, if you like it and you want to do it, then you should feel comfortable doing it." Yu Jingting’s hand lazily slid across her stomach. "Pregnant women shouldn’t overthink things. It’s not good."

He didn’t want his wife to stress over such issues, so he rolled up his sleeves and took it upon himself.

In addition to force, the most effective remedy to suppress someone vile is by revealing their vulnerabilities.

Having the principal’s secret in the palm of his hand and knowing his weaknesses, the old fool will never dare to lay hands on Suizi again.

"But how did you find out about this?" Suizi asked curiously.

"You think digging up information is that difficult?"

There are no secrets in this world that would not be revealed.

In the past few days, Yu Jingting managed to extract a lot of information from Wang Mengmeng. Wang Mengmeng inadvertently mentioned that the principal’s promotion had the help of an influential figure.

Following this clue of the influential person, Yu Jingting frequented the snack stalls and restaurants near the entrance of the Education Bureau.

Relying on his excellent social skills, after chatting with the vendors and piecing together fragmented clues, he concluded that the influential figure was the Bureau Chief’s wife.

"So, there were no pictures?" Suizi lowered her voice.

Yu Jingting spread his hands.

"Given our background, you think we have one?"

Do you think he, a "simple" farmer, could afford such a foreign contraption like a camera?

Suizi sympathized with the principal for a moment.

The principal was not fit for his position. He lacked emotional intelligence and the capability to handle certain things. When faced with Yu Jingting’s cunning tactics, he was easily deceived by a single phrase.

"Just focus on your pregnancy. You don’t need to worry about work too much. Make sure you give birth to the baby in your stomach safely. You don’t need to worry about other things."

In a whimsical mood, Yu Jingting placed his ear on Suizi’s stomach and lightly tapped it:

"Hey you two in there, call out ’dad’!"

"..." Suizi was unsure whether this man’s IQ was high or low.

He’s like a northern wolf outside the house, but at home, he’s as docile as a Husky... his IQ seemed to be like a rubber band, with great elasticity, fluctuating up and down unexpectedly.

"They’re too young. Their hearing hasn’t developed yet, and they can’t hear prenatal music, let alone call you ’dad’."

"So when will their ears develop?"

"Um, if we’re talking about their hearing, it should be at least 15 weeks later. Prenatal education can start then— just be careful with your words. I don’t want our child to curse the moment they learn to speak."

"Fifteen weeks..." Yu Jingting calculated the days in his heart, clenching the lottery ticket in his pocket. There was still time.

With the principal’s core secret under control, Suizi’s standing in the office soared like a rocket.

During the afternoon meeting, the principal introduced Suizi to the part-time lecturers in all seriousness.

He boasted about Suizi being the backbone of the country and a rising star in the field of education.

If she hadn’t understood the principal’s EQ level and knew he wasn’t capable of any deep schemes, Suizi would have thought he was setting her up.

All the teachers were curious, what exactly did the young Director Xiaochen have that stood out?

In Suizi’s first class, apart from Yu Jingting, the paranoid husband in the front row, a few other teachers sat in the back.
