Chapter 220: Chapter 220: Appearances are Guided by the Heart (Compensation + Update)

Tension began to brew between Suizi and the pudgy woman.

The skinny man on the side spoke.

"How dare you, a mere office director, speak to our Sister Zhang in that manner?"

"She is your second-in-command, not ours in the night school; we all take orders from the principal."

This was a pretty harsh blow from Suizi. At first listen, it seemed as though the principal was instigating her to cross swords with Zhang’s gang.

As expected, the pudgy woman fell into Suizi’s trap, shouting the principal’s name, and scolding him for a while.

Suizi turned to her male colleagues, whispering: "Report her words exactly to the principal, word by word."

The two male colleagues nodded, both thinking: ’Our director should be the rightful leader. Look at her capabilities; the principal is streets behind her.’

"Let’s just talk business. Have your approved documents ready. We will follow procedures." Suizi cut to the chase, not wanting to tangle further with the pudgy lady.

"The environment in your place is awful. The heating is so weak, what if your cold building freezes our people? The temperature must at least be guaranteed. The class timings are an issue too."

A whole bunch of unreasonable demands.

Those who deemed themselves privileged tended to nitpick and make mountains out of molehills.

Every other unit could accept the night school’s conditions, except for Zhang’s gang.

Suizi couldn’t see anything in this woman dubbed Sister Zhang that suggested she cared for her subordinates.

She assumed that these demands were just an act to flaunt her status and connections.

Dealing with such people is simple. Agree to their demands, flatter them a bit, and later, just maintain the status quo.

For instance, she complained about the cold temperature. Agree to consult the heating control guy about more coal usage, and then simply not follow through.

Suizi initially thought of doing just that. Arguing with a nag is a waste of time.

Just as Suizi was about to conclude the argument, the pudgy woman turned her gaze to Suizi’s belly.

"Are you married?"

Suizi furrowed her brows.

"Looking like a pig and still married off, haha."

The pudgy woman laughed outrageously while the room fell silent.

Even the skinny man who came with her tried hard to hide his embarrassment.

This lady...does she never look into a mirror?

On being insulted, Suizi’s first reaction was not anger, but relief.

Thankfully, her street-stray wasn’t there.

If he had heard, could he have controlled himself?

"Which psychiatric hospital failed to lock up its doors and let you out?" In harmony with an attracting disturbance, the door opened.

Yu Jingting was leaning against the door frame, grinning, with a murderous glare in his eyes.

Suizi exhaled deeply.

Exactly what she feared had happened.

"Who are you?" The chubby woman inquired.

"Don’t care who I am. I’m not an employee of this night school. I see you’re just a piece of ignorant swine."

And he unleashed a frenzied tirade.

Actually, he was just passing by to use the bathroom. But he unfortunately overheard someone insulting his chubby wife, which was something he couldn’t tolerate.

"How dare you speak to me like that?!"

"I not only dare speak to you in such a manner; I even dare shout it out loud. Listen up! You’re element number 51!"

"What do you mean?"

"Umm, he means you’re an idiot." Suizi even supplied the translation.

The situation was quickly escalating out of control.

The pudgy woman was shaking with anger, screeching at Yu Jingting.

Yu Jingting strode up to her, clutching her collar, yelling louder than her voice:

"Everyone knows you’re nuts, can you stop making it so obvious?"

The woman was left reeling from his ferocious onslaught. Yu Jingting added:

"Are you bothered by the volume of my voice? Can’t help it, we have a rule in our hood - when speaking to a sow, you must use your loudest voice!"

The two male colleagues from night school were stunned by this wild rant. The director’s man is a badass!

Unable to out-yell Yu Jingting, the woman turned to the man she had brought along.

"Xiaowei, are you just going to stand there and watch me be bullied- Xiaowei?"

The couch where a man once sat was now empty.

The man who came along with the plump woman had suddenly disappeared.

Suizi was taken aback. A man disappearing just like that?

There was just one door. Where could such a big man disappear?

"Crawled under the coffee table, the coward. Come out. I can see you-" Yu Jingting gave the coffee table a kick and out crawled a man, hands covering his head.

"What’s the matter? Did I go easy on you that night?"

The man was scared out of his wits. He sprang up and left amidst the astonished stares of those in the room.

"The next time you go out, remember to carry a fierce dog with you. This one is too weak for me to fight." Yu Jingting loosened his grip, letting the woman stumble, and exited, leaving the night school’s people in awe.

"Who, who is he?" The plump woman took a while to recover.

"Umm, he works for Fan Hua, the factory director, at the Tobacco Company. There’s not much we can do about him."

Suizi stirred the pot, but avoided mentioning him as her man.

"Fan Hua! Alright. I’ll remember him!" As expected, the plump woman shifted her focus elsewhere, and with a forceful kick on the coffee table, left to chase after the man.

As Suizi saw her off, turning around, Xia Zhang and Xia Li simultaneously presented Suizi with a thumbs-up.

"Director, you’re impressive! Zhang Linlin is backed by a solid lineup, acting tyrannically wherever she goes. It’s the first time we’ve seen her lose face."

"Remember, we’re just the bottom-tier staff and are not capable of dealing with such well-connected people. Understand?"

Suizi tried to keep a low profile.

When Zhang Linlin retaliates, she’ll find Fan Hua and the principal, not her.

The best thing is watching these savages fight each other.

Later, Yu Jingting told Suizi that the cowardly man was Wei Si, Wang Hui’s ex-husband.

The one Yu Jingting thrashed in the alley.

No wonder he was terrified on seeing Yu Jingting.

Suizi couldn’t figure out how Wang Hui, a strong woman, could have married such a wimp?

"Wei Si told the workers at my job that Wang Hui had a fling with a director. He couldn’t bear the dishonor of being a cuckold, so he divorced her."

"Not reliable. I believe Wang isn’t that kind of person. On the contrary, Wei Si, with his malicious face, can’t be trusted. I don’t believe a word he says."

Suizi thought for a moment and added,

"The men who smear their ex-wives’ names after divorce all fall into the scumbag category."

Which normal man would brag about being cheated on?

Especially spreading such rumors in the ex-wife’s social circle - it’s as despicable as polluting the air.

Thankfully, Sister Wang was mentally strong. For someone else, such embarrassment might have caused a breakdown.

In recent times, a woman’s reputation has become incredibly crucial.

Suizi didn’t completely believe in the phrase ’character influences appearance’, but Wei Si’s eyes were deceitful. He didn’t come across as a good man.

She wouldn’t believe a single word from his mouth.

After having lunch, Yu Jingting lazed around at home. He’d been tired these past few days and finally had a day off, so he decided to rest.

Suizi went to work by herself. Halfway there, she began feeling uncomfortable. Her belly stirred consistently; as if the twins were hinting at upcoming events.
