Qiaoqiao was listening attentively to the lesson when she saw He Yuan waving from outside the classroom.

Qiaoqiao pointed to herself and asked, "Me?"

He Yuan nodded and gestured for her to come out.

We're in class. What could be more important than that?

Qiaoqiao was a good student and rarely skipped class, but at this moment she could only sneak out from the back of the classroom.

"Teacher He, can't we talk about this after class?" Qiaoqiao asked in the hallway.

He Yuan grabbed Qiaoqiao and hurried downstairs: "How do you know the director of the admissions office?"

"I don't know her," Qiaoqiao said, confused.

"Why would he call me and ask you to go to his office if you don't know him?"

Admissions Office? Who is that? Cheng Zhaopeng?

Qiaoqiao paused for a moment, then asked, "Teacher He, is this Cheng Zhaopeng?"

"Yeah, none of the teachers at our school like him."

"Wu Dan's husband must be doing this because of my lawsuit against Wu Dan."

"Wu Dan? Wu Dan, the one in our class who took the exam for someone else?"

"Didn't she say she didn't take the exam for someone else? Teacher He, what exactly happened?"

"She took the exam for someone else. The school re-examined the math test and investigated students who took the exam for others. Someone gave Wu Dan the information, so she did well on the exam."

Later, we argued, and you filed a case. The police found out she took the exam for someone else, so she was fired, right? I never expected her to turn around and marry Director Cheng. She's got some skills.

He Yuan hates women who break up other people's families. She likes Teacher Zhou, but he's married, so she can only have a secret crush on him.

"Teacher He, Cheng Zhaopeng works in the admissions office, he can't do anything to me, right?" Qiaoqiao asked.

"Hmph, the admissions office is responsible for your job placement after graduation. If you offend Director Cheng, they'll send you to work in some godforsaken place. You'll be crying your eyes out."

"Oh, the admissions office has that authority?"

"You're such a troublemaker. When you see Director Cheng, talk to him nicely. Solve problems if there are any, don't argue with him. When you're under someone's roof, you have to bow your head. Don't let him block your work."

"Okay, thank you for reminding me, Teacher He."

"Sigh, Professor Zhou is so gentle and refined, how did you two end up like this? Sigh..."

Upon arriving at the office building, He Yuan said, "Go on upstairs, don't be afraid, I'll go find you some help."

"Teacher He, please don't tell Wenhui, I can handle it myself."

"I know, I won't go to see Teacher Zhou. You go first. Remember to be gentle and don't argue."

"yes!"

He Yuan turned and left, and Qiaoqiao went upstairs by herself. When she reached the door of the admissions director's office, Qiaoqiao took a deep breath, encouraging herself not to be afraid, before knocking on the door.

"Come in!"

Pushing open the door, Qiaoqiao couldn't help but laugh: "What are you all doing? A joint trial by three judicial departments?"

On the sofa in the office sat Wu Dan and Cheng Zhaoying. The man behind the desk must be Cheng Zhaoying's brother, Cheng Zhaopeng.

"Yang Qiao, be serious," Cheng Zhaopeng said sternly.

Wu Dan rolled her eyes and glared at Qiaoqiao.

Cheng Zhaoying looked at Qiaoqiao with a sarcastic tone and snorted.

Qiaoqiao smiled slightly: "Yes, Director Cheng, what can I do for you?"

"I heard you and Wu Dan have some conflicts, so I've specially called you two together today to mediate," Cheng Zhaopeng said coldly.

"My matter with Wu Dan cannot be resolved privately; let's wait for the court to decide," Qiaoqiao said, neither arrogant nor humble.

"Yang Qiao, aren't you being ungrateful?" Wu Dan said arrogantly.

"How am I shameless? I didn't seduce the commune brigade secretary, nor did I seduce a married man." Qiaoqiao looked at Wu Dan and asked with amusement.

"Yang Qiao, watch your words." Cheng Zhaopeng slammed his hand on the table, startling everyone.

"She's just a country bumpkin, where does she get her manners?" Cheng Zhaoying said casually.

"The village woman isn't like some people who ask men for watches or bicycles."

Qiaoqiao tossed her two black braids and said with a smile.

Today's Yang Qiao is no longer the timid Yang Qiao. She has confidence now. She's not afraid of the three of you alone.

"You, you stole my Wenhui and still dare to spout such nonsense!" Cheng Zhaoying stood up angrily.

"If Wenhui marries you, he'll be incredibly unlucky. You dare to take anything from any man; you'll have emptied the Zhou family's coffers." Qiaoqiao retorted coldly.

"Yang Qiao, don't be so smug. Wenhui is just using you to take care of him. Do you really think he loves you?"

You wanted to take care of him, but unfortunately you didn't have the chance.

"You, you think you're superior just because you're cleaning up after people's excrement and urine?"

"What's wrong with cleaning up poop and pee? I'm not going to go asking someone for a bicycle while licking up poop and pee, am I? You've gotten Platoon Leader Li into jail. Won't you have nightmares tonight?"

"You, Yang Qiao, you're talking nonsense. He did it voluntarily."

They were exchanging words, and it looked like they were about to fight. Cheng Zhaopeng impatiently shouted, "Stop arguing, Yang Qiao. I called you here today to mediate your conflict with Wu Dan. Why are you acting like a dog, biting anyone you see?"

"You're the dog, your whole family are dogs."

Qiaoqiao fought against the three of them all by herself.

"Yang Qiao, let's get to the point. Go to the police station and withdraw your complaint. After you graduate, I'll arrange a good job for you."

Although it was supposed to be a discussion, Cheng Zhaopeng's tone was very dismissive.

Qiaoqiao paused for a moment. "Don't make a fuss, don't make a fuss. Teacher He said that Cheng Zhaopeng has the right to assign jobs. What if he sends her to the frontier? Wouldn't that be the end of her?"

After much hesitation, Qiaoqiao said calmly, "I will not withdraw the lawsuit."

"Why are you so stubborn? You broke my head, and I didn't ask you to pay compensation. I'm just asking you to drop the lawsuit and I'll even give you the job I've arranged for you. It's a win-win situation, so why are you unwilling?"

Wu Dan was getting anxious; Yang Qiao was completely unyielding.

"I disagree because you've slandered my family. Wu Xia was imprisoned for having illicit relationships, yet you claim my parents used their power to sue her for insulting military families. You just open your mouth and say whatever you want, and then expect me to forgive you? No way."

"Hey, Yang Qiao, that's all in the past, why are you still holding onto it?" Wu Dan's eyes reddened with anxiety.

Qiaoqiao was about to argue when Cheng Zhaopeng waved his hand and said, "The best job for history majors is as a history teacher at the No. 1 Middle School in the city. I'll reserve this spot for you. You can withdraw your lawsuit."

A teacher at No. 1 Middle School? Yang Qiao was somewhat tempted, but she couldn't compromise.

Whether I can become a teacher at No. 1 High School depends on my own grades. You can't use your power to arrange students' destinations on your own.

"You, Yang Qiao, are you a little stupid? You think you can get into No. 1 High School just because you have good grades? Dozens of students are vying for one teacher's spot."

Cheng Zhaopeng was amused by Qiaoqiao's antics.

"Someone like her shouldn't be a teacher, lest she corrupt the students," Cheng Zhaoying said with a cold snort.

"I can't be a teacher, you should be. You're perfect for it, perfect for teaching students how to steal men." Qiaoqiao was furious.

"You... Yang Qiao, if you continue to slander me, I'll sue you."

"Fine, go ahead and sue me. See you in court." Yang Qiao didn't want to waste any more words and turned to leave.

"Yang Qiao, are you really not going to reconsider? Are you really willing to go to the border region to teach?" Cheng Zhaopeng said coldly.

"You... do you think you can control everything?"

"Yang Qiao, this is something that should be resolved by both sides taking a step back. If you insist on being stubborn, you can't blame me for handling this officially."

You, you're bullying others by abusing your power...
