Finally, Lin Zhou and Ye Zhiyu stood at the entrance of the principal's office.

There are several principals at Yinshan Academy, each in charge of a different area, but Ye Zhiyu's mother is the most special one. She is not only a principal but also the largest board member of the academy. It can be said that she has the ability to control everything within the academy.

This is precisely why the student council, which is directly responsible to the school board, has exceptionally great power. Gu Yuning's ability to become the president required unimaginable effort from ordinary people.

Yinshan College is also quite special, as many students have gone all the way up from the main campus of primary school, so a considerable number of people have spent two or three decades of their lives at this college.

A number of master's and doctoral graduates stayed on as teachers at the university and spent their entire lives there.

Your classmates and teachers probably know more about your dark history than you do.

The college offers very generous scholarships, boasts a strong faculty, and collaborates with numerous large companies. If you're willing, you can almost always find a well-paying job based on your major.

Those with the best grades can get a job at a multinational corporation, such as Xiaoyu's father's family business, which is a super company worth trillions.

"Let's go in." Lin Zhou was still holding Ye Zhiyu's hand, which was soft and slightly cool.

"No." Ye Zhiyu pouted.

"What are you talking about? We're already here, let's go inside." Lin Zhou tugged at Ye Zhiyu, but found her resisting. "I don't want to go. Let's get a room and play cards."

"Are you crazy? Let's go." Lin Zhou grabbed Ye Zhiyu, but he was no match for her strength, and the two remained locked in a stalemate.

How can this guy be so strong?

That makes sense, it seems like their physical condition is at its peak.

"Besides, you didn't need to help me in the first place," Ye Zhiyu muttered.

"What are you talking about? How could I possibly just stand by and do nothing about you?" Lin Zhou glanced sideways and tightened his grip on Ye Zhiyu's hand.

Upon seeing Lin Zhou's profile, Ye Zhiyu paused for a moment, her resistance lessening slightly. However, Lin Zhou suddenly pulled her closer, and she angrily bared her fangs, biting Lin Zhou's arm.

"That stinky man uses this trick? Good tactic!"

"Huh?" Ye Zhiyu didn't bite hard, and Lin Zhou was a little confused after being lightly bitten.

The two arguing outside the office attracted the attention of those inside. Soon, a cold voice came from the doorway, "What are you two doing here? Keep the office quiet."

Lin Zhou and Ye Zhiyu looked up and saw a petite, long-haired girl with her arms crossed and a cold expression on her face.

"Yu Ning? What are you doing here?" Lin Zhou was stunned when he saw Gu Yu Ning standing at the door.

"Stop pulling and tugging, let go of her hand." Gu Yuning glanced at Lin Zhou holding Ye Zhiyu's hand.

"Oh." Lin Zhou let go, but Ye Zhiyu still kept biting Lin Zhou's arm.

Lin Zhou was embarrassed: "Uh..."

"Come in." Gu Yuning turned and walked into the office.

"it is good."

Lin Zhou used his arm as bait, pulling the fish he had caught all the way into the office. After closing the door, he soon saw the long-haired beauty sitting on the sofa not far away.

Principal An, Ye Zhiyu's mother, remained calm and composed. After seeing Lin Zhou bring Ye Zhiyu in, she glanced at their strange behavior and simply said:

"What's wrong?"

Lin Zhou patted Ye Zhiyu, who pretended to be dead and hid behind Lin Zhou. Reluctantly, Ye Zhiyu wrote words on Lin Zhou's back, poked a few times, and drew circles.

A turtle.

Turtlefish.

You're usually quite bold, so why are you acting like a coward now?

Lin Zhou could only smile and say helplessly, "Xiao Yu wants to come over and apologize."

Ye Zhiyu, standing behind him, immediately became displeased.

What?! I need to come here to apologize?! Didn't you bring me here?!

"Oh?" Principal An picked up his teacup, took a sip, and then?

"Then I came over to apologize. I was wrong last time; I shouldn't have gone racing with Xiaoyu," Lin Zhou said. "If possible, I'm willing to accept the punishment with Xiaoyu."

Principal An remained silent and listened quietly.

Gu Yuning was also sitting there.

The atmosphere was very quiet.

until--

"Tsk." Principal An suddenly clicked his tongue, looked up at Ye Zhiyu who was hiding behind Lin Zhou, and said, "Hey, how long are you going to hide? Isn't Lin Zhou more responsible than you?"

Ye Zhiyu reluctantly stepped out from behind Lin Zhou, turning her head away.

"You...do whatever you want, I was wrong."

Is this an attitude of apology?

"..." Ye Zhiyu was about to say something, but Lin Zhou squeezed her hand, and Ye Zhiyu whispered something.

"Wrong."

"I can't hear you, speak louder!"

Upon hearing this, Ye Zhiyu pulled a folding megaphone from under her skirt and shouted, "I—was—wrong—beep—"

The loud noise, mixed with other sounds, echoed throughout the office, as if everyone on the entire floor could hear it.

Gu Yuning and Lin Zhou had already covered their ears with their hands, while Principal An remained with his legs crossed, giving a disdainful smile.

"Not bad, you're quite strong, but—"

"This is not your power."

"You wanted to get beaten up, didn't you? Come here."

Upon hearing this, Ye Zhiyu pouted and walked to stand next to Principal An, then closed her eyes and said, "Go ahead and hit me, you've hit me plenty of times anyway."

"Does spanking count as hitting your bottom when you misbehave?" Principal An said. "But since you put it that way, then I..."

As she raised her hand, the resulting breeze caused Ye Zhiyu to instinctively close her eyes and tense her body slightly.

But the expected slap didn't come. Ye Zhiyu felt her cheek being pinched, then gently stroked, and asked in a tone she had never heard before, "Does it hurt?"

Ye Zhiyu opened her eyes and found Principal An looking at her with an emotion she couldn't understand.

"..."

"Mom..." Ye Zhiyu lowered her head, her nose tingling with emotion.

"Do you know you're wrong?" Principal An asked again.

"I was wrong."

"Did Mom hit you?"

"right……"

"No," Principal An said. "I shouldn't have hit you. I was furious at the time... but you're my only daughter."

She pulled Xiaoyu into her lap and sat her down. "I don't want to see you do dangerous things. Of course, this time it's not entirely your fault, since it was someone else going against the flow... but I hope you can value your safety more."

"Oh..." Ye Zhiyu responded softly as Principal An held her.

Hearing her daughter's sincere apology, Principal An gently patted Ye Zhiyu's face, then looked at Lin Zhou.

"Xiao Zhou, you two grew up together. From now on, you'll keep an eye on her for me and make sure she doesn't do anything reckless."

I only have one daughter.

Lin Zhou found it strange; was this entrusting his daughter to him?
