Cui Qiuzhen was extremely angry. "He had a reason to hit us. He saved us when the library caught fire..."

Cui Qiuzhen said this to tell Zeng Dehong that Ling Ziqian's character is unmatched.

However, Zeng Dehong looked at Cui Qiuzhen expressionlessly, "The library building caught fire, no one asked him to go up and save people, right? Maybe he started the fire, which is why he was so nervous and ran upstairs to save people."

Zeng Dehong's words left Cui Qiuzhen speechless.

She never imagined that Zeng Dehong, as the director of the school's teaching affairs office, would view Ling Ziqian in this way.

Su Mingxi wanted to explain, but Ling Ziqian stopped her.

Zeng Dehong looked at Ling Ziqian and said, "Don't make any rash moves. If you do anything else, I will definitely fire you. And Su Mingxi, I don't care if there's anything wrong with your voice. You'd better go to the music room to practice singing right now. Otherwise, you'll be fired too!"

Ling Ziqian was furious. His face darkened as he said, "Then fire us!"

"Want to leave Shilian Middle School and transfer to another school?" Zeng Dehong chuckled. "If your student records are gone, transferring schools will be extremely troublesome, won't it?"

Cui Qiuzhen's pupils constricted; student files are extremely important to students.

Zeng Dehong, a director of the teaching affairs office, actually used student records to threaten students!

At one point, Cui Qiuzhen felt a sense of loss regarding Shilian Middle School.

I never expected that such a scumbag existed at Shilian Middle School, and he was even a director!

"Go practice singing in the music room. Your partner is there too. If you don't participate in the New Year's Day performance, I'll assume you want to drop out of school, and then... I'll grant your wish."

Zeng Dehong, with his fat head and big face, sneered and turned to leave.

Su Mingxi was frightened by these words. She wanted to go to the music room and obediently participate in the New Year's Day cultural performance.

But Ling Ziqian held her hand tightly and wouldn't let go.

"Brother, let me go. It's just going to sing a song, it's an easy thing." Su Mingxi smiled at Ling Ziqian.

"You sang at the No. 1 High School's anniversary celebration a while ago, didn't you?" Ling Ziqian frowned.

Su Mingxi's smile vanished, and she lowered her head.

She dared not think about what happened that time, dared not imagine what would have happened to her if Ling Ziqian had not been by her side.

In my heart, grievances welled up like a spring, turning into tears.

She burst into tears, "Waaah, why, why do all these messy things always happen? Why can't they just leave me alone? Is it because I'm a little pretty that everyone's after me...?"

Ling Ziqian was a little embarrassed. This was Cupid's curse, no, it wasn't!

Cupid-chan is just bringing things forward; even if she didn't curse, such a thing would still happen in the near future!

Once upon a time, when Dou Xiaorong was still chubby, she admired Su Mingxi's beauty, while Su Mingxi envied her.

Su Mingxi had had enough of the harassment she had suffered because of her good looks since she was a child!

"If I were plain and ugly, this wouldn't have happened, and my brother wouldn't have been implicated..." Su Mingxi murmured softly, reaching out her hand to touch her cheek.

Ling Ziqian grabbed her hand and held it tightly. "Don't do anything foolish. She's just a school director. She can't cause any trouble. I can protect you."

"But I can't be protected by you forever, you can't always be by my side, the future is still far away, and life is still long..."

"Without my protection, how do you plan to live your future and your life? Will you hide away out of fear and turn yourself into an ugly monster?"

Faced with Ling Ziqian's question, Su Mingxi didn't know how to answer.

Ling Ziqian smiled at her, "Be strong, this situation is not a big deal. I will protect you, and I will protect you until you are strong enough!"

His smile was extremely sunny and warm. In an instant, a thought flashed through Su Mingxi's mind: she would be weak for the rest of her life, so that he could protect her for the rest of her life!

But his own weakness made him unworthy of his protection!

Pulling herself together, Su Mingxi gave an embarrassed smile. The grievances she had just felt had overwhelmed her, and she had almost collapsed.

Ling Ziqian saved her, promised to protect her, and encouraged her to be strong.

At that moment, Su Mingxi suddenly stopped envying Dou Xiaorong.

I used to envy Dou Xiaorong for having a childhood sweetheart who protected her; now I have an older brother who protects me!

This feeling is wonderful!

"Alright, stop overthinking. You should go home today."

"I want to go to class." Su Mingxi lowered her head, not wanting to show weakness.

Ling Ziqian tapped her head, "Listen to your brother!"

Su Mingxi was stunned for a moment, then covered her head and nodded with an embarrassed smile.

Ling Ziqian's reason for letting Su Mingxi go home was simple: he was worried about Zeng Dehong's nephew running into Su Mingxi.

Ling Ziqian had previously complained that Su Mingxi was the school beauty. Although Shilian Middle School did not have a so-called school beauty, Su Mingxi's appearance was indeed outstanding.

“Teacher Cui.” Ling Ziqian turned and smiled at Cui Qiuzhen. “I’ll take Mingxi back first. We’ll decide when she comes to school later.”

"Okay, you can go back now." Cui Qiuzhen waved her hand.

Just as Su Mingxi nearly collapsed, Cui Qiuzhen was also greatly shaken.

Compared to the world outside the school, the school should be a paradise, but Zeng Dehong actually brought the outside world into the school!

They wanted to use threats to suppress Ling Ziqian and force Su Mingxi to submit!

When did the people in charge of the school become like this?

Ling Ziqian rode his pink bicycle, carrying Su Mingxi, away from the school.

On the way, he took out his phone and called Dou Xiaorong, "Hey, Dou Rongbao, have you gone to school yet?"

Dou Xiaorong was on her way to school when she received a call from Ling Ziqian, which surprised her.

"You're on your way to school. Don't go to school today. My sister was a little frightened. Stay with her."

"Ziqian!" Su Mingxi tugged at Ling Ziqian's clothes nervously. In her haste, she forgot to call him "brother".

"What's wrong?" Ling Ziqian hung up the phone and turned to look at Su Mingxi.

"Why are you bothering Xiaorong? She has to go to school too!"

“How is this troublesome?” Ling Ziqian scratched his head. “I’m not good at comforting people, but it’s best to have her with you.”

Su Mingxi felt a warmth in her heart and almost smiled. It wasn't that he didn't know how to comfort people; she herself felt incredibly comfortable because of just one sentence from him.

Ling Ziqian rode his bicycle, carrying Su Mingxi, towards Dou Xiaorong's villa.

As they approached the villa, Ling Ziqian received a phone call.

The call was from Ma Shuyao, the girl with tiger teeth.

Previously, when Su Mingxi was invited to participate in the school anniversary performance of the No. 1 Middle School in the city, she met Ma Shuyao, who had tiger teeth, and Zhang Ying, who had freckles, while practicing singing in the music room.

The four of them went to the No. 1 Middle School of the city together, and Ling Ziqian exchanged phone numbers with them to make it easier to stay in touch.

Ling Ziqian was quite surprised to receive Ma Shuyao's call.

When the call connected, Ma Shuyao's soft voice came through, "Senior, are you at school? Can you help me, please help me..."

Ling Ziqian's heart skipped a beat, realizing that Ma Shuyao might have encountered some trouble.

"What happened? Did you call the teacher or the police?" Ling Ziqian asked worriedly.

"I don't dare tell the teacher, and it won't do any good anyway, sob sob, senior, where are you? Please help me, sob sob..."

When Ma Shuyao cried, her voice was extremely weak and pitiful.

Ling Ziqian was quite frightened. "Where are you? I'm coming to find you!"

After finding out Ma Shuyao's location, Ling Ziqian hung up the phone and stopped the car.

After instructing Su Mingxi to stay with Dou Xiaorong and not wander off, Ling Ziqian nervously hailed a taxi and quickly returned to Shilian Middle School.

Su Mingxi wanted to ask what was wrong, but she knew she couldn't help.

At times like these, not causing him trouble is the best way to help!

Chapter 246 Hurry up and come to the teaching office!

Upon arriving at the school, Ling Ziqian ran towards the main building where the music room was located.

Tiger Tooth Girl Ma Shuyao is hiding in a restroom in the complex building.

Ling Ziqian was unaware of what had happened. But he guessed that it must be related to Zeng Dehong's nephew.

Zeng Dehong asked Su Mingxi to go to the music room to practice singing, saying that her partner was there.

Ma Shuyao was also in the music room, practicing her singing in preparation for the New Year's Day performance.

As Ling Ziqian walked upstairs, he encountered several nonchalant boys who looked like delinquent students.

Ling Ziqian was a little worried. He quickly went upstairs and walked to the door of a restroom.

Ma Shuyao was hiding in the women's restroom, but Ling Ziqian had no intention of going in.

He took out his phone, intending to call Ma Shuyao and ask her to come out.

At that moment, a sound came from the bathroom.

"Found it! So that's where it was hiding!"

"I thought she had run away!"

"Oh!"

"what!"

The sound of the door being kicked open, followed by Ma Shuyao's scream, rang out!

Ling Ziqian put away his phone, not caring about anything else, and quickly ran into the women's restroom!

"You come out here!"

"Don't come out, don't pull me..."

Upon entering the restroom, Ling Ziqian saw two girls pulling on Ma Shuyao's arm, trying to drag her out of the stall!

"Hey, what are you doing?" Ling Ziqian shouted.

"No way!" The two girls turned around and saw a boy enter the women's restroom. They were startled.
