C93 – Got Angry

“Did you hear? The individual on duty was let go by the dean and Jia Tianxia escorted him out of the hospital.”

“Seriously?” “What’s the reason?”

“What else could it be? Wasn’t it due to last night’s incident with the principal? He came looking for the principal earlier and then everyone started talking about it.”

“Unbelievable!” Isn’t it an overreaction to terminate him just for gossiping about your indiscretions?”

“Did you know?” Was he a long-time employee? “He’s worked with the former headmaster for almost a decade and now he’s just been dismissed from the academy.”

“Why doesn’t the old principal intervene?” “Haven’t you heard the rumors?”

“Who can be certain? But it was bound to happen eventually. Especially since that Xiao San is a man – quite shocking.”

“I’ve always wondered, what’s the dynamic when it’s two men?”

“Can’t say for sure. But given how eagerly that attendant sought the dean, he might be after some compensation.” “How low.”

“Seems like he’s the type who’s always up for sale. Repulsive.”

“Your remarks are pretty bold.”

Yet, amidst their shock, they internalized her words with a pang of regret.

“If I ever catch wind of you maligning Xiaojie again, I’ll silence you permanently. Understood?” She said, exuding authority.

“Absolutely, we understand.”

How could they protest? They also feared losing their lucrative jobs.

“Hmph!”

Only then did Mu Xiaoxiao’s fury wane. However, as she moved away, a sharp pain almost drew tears.

“Xiao Ming, assist me.”

Possibly, her forceful kick strained her ligaments.

Xiao Ming shot her a bemused look, “Seriously?”

“Yes, yes, I concede. Just help me up now!”

Xiao Ming refrained from commenting, hoisting her gently. He then instructed, “Stay put. I’ll fetch some breakfast.”

“Alright, but grab me some ice cream too. The priciest one.” She cheekily requested.

“Always thinking about food.” He grumbled but seemed amused.
