In that case, he would not poke his nose into other people’s business. After all, he would not be the one who would feel awkward if President Gu’s identity was exposed. Song Shiyu snorted angrily. “No, Madam was never bullied.”

It was already good enough that Madam did not bully the Qiao family.

Gu Zheng paused for a moment before asking, “Did she say anything after you went over to help her settle the matter?”

Song Shiyu nodded. “Yes, Madam was very polite. She even thanked me.”

Gu Zheng narrowed his eyes. “Thank you? Only you?”

Song Shiyu: “?”

Otherwise? He was the one who did everything. Who else could she thank but him? Should she thank the Qiao family for taking the initiative to look for trouble?

“I asked you to help her. Shouldn’t she be thanking me? Or did you not tell her that I asked you to back her up? Song Shiyu, do you want your salary to be deducted again?”

Song Shiyu: “…”

Salary deduction? He only knew how to deduct his salary every day! It seemed that Madam was right. President Gu was a wretched man!

“By the way, President Gu, I heard that there’s a teacher in the university who was expelled and doesn’t like Madam. They want to create trouble for her. Do you want me to go over and handle it?”

Gu Zheng paused and looked at his schedule. He was busy with work and had asked Song Shiyu to support Qiao Xi, but she was only thanking Song Shiyu.

“I don’t want to help someone who doesn’t want to thank me,” Gu Zheng slowly said, “But I saw on my schedule that I’m going to Li City University for an inspection. Report to me when that person attacks Qiao Xi.”

Song Shiyu: “…”

‘If you want to support Madam, just say it. Who are you kidding?

‘As the director of Li City University, it’s rare for you to appear even once a year. Now that Madam is teaching in Li City University, you’ve been to Li City University more often than you work.’

Hmph!

…

A few days later, the two collaboration projects with the Qiao family were withdrawn. The family was in a difficult period. Qiao Zhenguo was pleading for help everywhere. Gu Moling, as the future son-in-law of the Qiao family, was also helping out.

However, no matter what the two of them did, it was useless.

Qiao Xi touched the pistol in her bag and recalled what Song Shiyu said about him being the adjutant. She then hacked into a system but found no one named Song Shiyu on the list of retired adjutants.

Song Shiyu had probably told her that he was an adjutant because he thought she did not understand and it did not matter if he told her. However, he would not have expected that she not only understood but also knew a lot about it. If even she could not find out Song Shiyu’s identity, it meant that his identity was mysterious enough. However, such a mysterious person was willing to stay by Gu Zheng’s side as his assistant…

It was very difficult for ordinary noble families to obtain a pistol, much less a modified pistol. Gu Zheng casually gave the modified pistol to her as if he was giving her cabbage… In that case, it could only be said that this modified pistol was not important to Gu Zheng, or perhaps it was not worth mentioning.

Hence, Gu Zheng’s identity was worth investigating. Who was a man who could casually give a pistol to someone?

Qiao Xi narrowed her eyes and suddenly felt that the marriage partner she found on the spot was very interesting.

At this moment, a panicked voice sounded not far away.

“Ah? Who is this? Why are you covered in injuries?”

Qiao Xi had just walked to the entrance of the university and was about to turn around when she heard a voice. She saw a crazy woman covered in blood suddenly pouncing toward her.

“Teacher Qiao, please let me go! I’m still young! I don’t want to lose my job! I have my elders and children. You can’t do this to me!”

Qiao Xi frowned. Who was this person?

A student in the distance scratched his head in confusion. “This person looks like a teacher from the design department. Why has she become like this?”

“I don’t know. Why is she begging Qiao Xi to let her off? Could it be that Qiao Xi did something to her?”

The surrounding students instantly became excited. Ever since Qiao Xi came to Li City University, there had been a lot of things going on in Li City University. The group of people watched the show with interest. It added a lot of fun to their boring university life.

Qiao Xi was stopped. She looked at this woman whose face was covered in blood and could not be seen clearly. She tried her best to search for information related to this woman in her mind, but unfortunately, she was unable to find anything.

“Teacher Qiao, I was wrong. I was really wrong. I shouldn’t have listened to those things on the forums that were saying bad things about you. I apologize. I can apologize for all the bad things I’ve done to you. Please be kind and let me off, okay? I really can’t lose this job..”
