Chapter 431: Making Trouble
Chapter 431: Chapter 431: Making Trouble
"Director, you are my idol, you’re like a god to me! How did you manage to invite him?!"
In the conference room of the night school, Zhang Yue’e, Xiaoli and others surrounded Suizi, expressing their endless admiration for her unabashedly.
Su Zhe had come to the school to teach Mathematics.
When his wheelchair appeared at the school gate, even the principal thought he was seeing things.
In response to her colleagues’ astonishment, Suizi simply replied with two words: sincerity.
However, the principal wasn’t quite receptive to Su Zhe, a character filled with controversy.
Su Zhe had almost offended the entire academic circle in the province, and no universities dared to hire him.
If he were to teach here and offended anyone...
Suizi quickly shut him down with a retort.
"If the higher-ups cause trouble because of Su Zhe, I’ll take the blame. As for you—"
As Suizi was considering how to phrase her words without offending anyone, a mocking voice came from behind her.
"What’s there for the big brother Principal to worry about?"
The principal looked at Yu Jingting who had just arrived and felt like his head was about to explode.
His biggest worry was this guy...
"In his heart, there is no fear. He is free from delusion and nightmares." Suizi picked a phrase from the Heart Sutra to describe the principal at that moment.
The principal accepted Suizi’s goodwill and was about to express his sentiments when Yu Jingting’s translation itch struck again.
"According to my wife, you have reached the bottom and cannot fall further. You’re about to retire so you don’t need to worry about others retaliating. You shouldn’t be stressed about trivial matters, right, honey?"
Choking back his sentiments, the principal gave Yu Jingting a furious but silent gaze, then left the room feeling wronged.
"You’re really a piece of work," Suizi reprimanded him.
"I’ve merely spoken the truth." Yu Jingting sat on Suizi’s desk, swinging his legs leisurely.
It was almost lunchtime and he came to take Suizi home for lunch.
Wang Mengmeng and Zhang Yue’e were getting water and passing by Suizi’s office door.
"The director is really lucky to have a brother-in-law who comes to pick her up every day, even though it’s just a short distance away."
"Well, some people are just show offs without much to show for. The more they stick together, the more guilty they seem—oh, I’m just talking about a book I read, no other implications."
Wang Mengmeng raised her voice intentionally so that the people in the office could hear.
As soon as she finished speaking, something flew out from the open door and hit Wang Mengmeng right in the forehead. She cried out in pain.
Upon closer inspection, it was a frozen pear.
"Oh, I guess my hand slipped. I didn’t mean anything by it." Yu Jingting’s smug voice came from the room, sounding lazy but with a hint of hostility.
Zhang Yue’e watched as Wang Mengmeng held her head, running back to the office, giving Yu Jingting a thumbs-up from her position.
His aim was really good.
After Wang Mengmeng returned to the office, she made a great racket slamming office supplies around, muttering curses.
"Brother Ting is here!" Xiaoli shouted.
Wang Mengmeng quickly hid under her desk.
She only realized she had been tricked when she heard the laughter from her colleagues.
Furious, Wang Mengmeng crawled out from under the desk, slamming her hands on the table and shouting:
"I’m not afraid of any of you, I have nothing to fear because I’ve done nothing wrong!"
Clunk, another frozen pear flew over and hit her square on the forehead.
"Good grief, did it form a pair of dragon horns?" Xiaoli and Zhang Yue’e clapped as Yu Jingting led Suizi past the office door. The pear that hit Wang Mengmeng was the same one as before.
It was picked up and used for a second time.
"Ah, my hand slipped again, my bad." Yu Jingting casually waved his hand, checking on the person with two lumps on her head. How are you doing over there~
Wang Mengmeng crawled under the table again, ignoring the laughter of her colleagues.
"Why were you treating her so seriously?" After leaving the school, Suizi thought about the "dragon horns" on Wang Mengmeng’s head, which looked quite symmetrical.
"How annoying she is."
Yu Jingting’s status has changed, but his temper remains the same.
He spoils no one he dislikes.
"You really are..." Suizi didn’t know how to describe him.
"Candied haws!" Yu Jingting pointed ahead.
"Don’t buy any for me, just get some for my mom and Jiaojiao."
Her weight had stopped dropping and stayed at 118 kg for the month, indicating a weight loss plateau.
Suizi planned to increase her workout intensity and change her diet.
Although she really liked candied haws, she still wanted to control her diet.
Yu Jingting waved his hand, whether he heard her or not.
Suizi looked down at her own legs. Given her height, her weight was reasonable.
She looked fine on normal days, but Suizi was not satisfied. When taking pictures, the whole family was too good-looking, and her weight ruined the picture.
Especially Yu Jingting, he always took pictures from strange angles.
He always captured some pictures that made her legs look short and face large, even claiming it reflected the reality of life.
Thinking about those strange and ugly photos, Suizi felt her blood pressure rising.
She thought if she could lose another 10 kg, maybe Yu Jingting could take good pictures.
"Chen Hansui!"
When Suizi turned around, a woman with bandages on her head stood behind her. It was Lun Lamei.
"What happened to your head?"
"Isn’t it because of you?!"
"Me???" Suizi pointed to her own nose. She hadn’t been to the Su Family’s house for days, had she?
"It’s all your fault! You gave money to Su Zhe, it’s all because of you! You bring disaster! Wherever you are, nothing good happens to me!"
"???"
From Lun Lamei’s resentful accusations and abuses, Suizi finally extracted the key information and pieced together the cause and effect of this issue.
Yu Jingting had given Su Zhe a 1,000 cash prize, which Lun Lamei had her eyes on.
Before, she tricked the Su Family parents with sweet words and got money from them for buying medicinal herbs.
After Suizi and her husband showed up, the Su Family parents no longer trusted her and refused to give her money.
Unaware that the Pharmaceutical Company’s Du Zhong was friends with Suizi and her husband, and also had some relationship with Su Zhe - they were the godfathers of a pair of boy and girl twins.
Because of this relationship, the Pharmaceutical Company delayed in paying her for the herbs she delivered. Lun Lamei ran out of money.
In her urgent need for money, she quarreled with Su’s mother.
She believed since she and Su Zhe were married, she should be the one managing the 1,000 Su Zhe had earned.
Lun Lamei also brought up Suizi’s home economics as an example.
Even though Suizi lives with her mother-in-law, Wang Cuihua never touches her personal finances. What the young couple earns belongs to them.
Every month, Suizi provides Wang Cuihua with some money for groceries and gives her some pocket money, but that wasn’t necessary after Yu Shuisheng returned.
Yu Shuisheng has more money than he can handle, disdaining to accept any small sum.
Seeing Lun Lamei’s unreasonable demands, Su’s mother got angry and they began fighting physically, and Su’s mother smashed Lun Lamei’s head with a spittoon, which she later got stitched up.
Lun Lamei did not realize that her misfortunes were all orchestrated by Suizi. But she did realize that her good luck ended when Suizi appeared.
That’s why she came over, to continue her interrupted "mission" from last time: to annoy Suizi.
