"She's the worst student ever..."
Holding her father's arm, Qiao Yi trashed Feng Wu with the worst slander she could think of until Feng Wu sounded like the worst student alive.
Chief Qiao was frowning the entire time without saying a word.
Qiao Yi cried out, "Dad! She hit me!"
That statement set her father off. Chief Qiao asked, "What did you say?"
Qiao Yi cried like a pretty flower in the rain. "Dad, it happened the other day in the Year 1 office. Feng Wu..." It was Qiao Yi's coup de grace. She accused Feng Wu between broken sobs, making the latter into this domineering girl who had been abusing her power.
Feng Wu had given Chief Qiao a good impression at first, but after Qiao Yi's repeated slander, Chief Qiao changed his opinion of Feng Wu as well. "Is she really that kind of person?" Chief Qiao frowned.
Seeing that her father had wavered, Qiao Yi went on crying, making more excuses. "I... I've been getting along so well with Young Lord Feng, but Feng Wu intervened, and now, Young Lord Feng won't even talk to me... She must have said some bad things about me behind my back..."
Feng Wu would be dumbfounded if she heard that. Since when did Qiao Yi get along well with Feng Xun, and when did she ever intervene? She had never slandered Qiao Yi in front of Feng Xun. To be more precise, she had never talked about this woman in front of him! However, because Feng Wu didn't know what Qiao Yi had been saying about her, she couldn't come to her own defense.
It just so happened that Chief Qiao would become this completely unreasonable old man whenever it came to Qiao Yi. He could be unbelievably biased! He flared up as soon as he heard that Feng Wu had hit Qiao Yi.
An hour had passed by the time Chief Qiao and Qiao Yi came out of the room. Feng Wu realized that something was wrong as soon as she saw the look on Chief Qiao's face. She was right to assume that, since Chief Qiao immediately gave his verdict.
He pushed the application forms back to Feng Wu. Feng Wu's heart sank, but she looked undisturbed when she asked, "Chief Qiao, what's that supposed to mean?"
Chief Qiao smirked. "This isn't the place for a student like you, so please leave." He rejected Feng Wu's application.
Feng Wu's pretty face darkened. She frowned and stared at Chief Qiao.
Chief Qiao stared back at her and ordered, "Feng Wu, I think you should be on your way!"
Feng Wu smirked. "I now see what kind of person you are, Chief Qiao."
Chief Qiao glared at Feng Wu. He believed that with his power, Feng Wu should already be on her knees and begging for forgiveness. However, the girl only stared back at him!
Chief Qiao asked, "What kind of person am I, then?"
Feng Wu smirked. "You're biased, opinionated and subjective, and abuse public power to retaliate against your personal enemy! I'm very disappointed!" Feng Wu promptly turned to leave.
"Stop right there!" Chief Qiao wouldn't take the criticism lying down!
Feng Wu turned around and sneered at him. "You believe everything Qiao Yi says without asking a single question; what would you call that if not biased and opinionated? You don't deserve to be the chief of Year 2!"
"You..." Chief Qiao almost had a heart attack! He had always considered himself the king of Initial, and all his commands should be carried out without question. No one had ever dared defy him, let alone do it in front of other people. In other words, the unchallenged lord of Initial had just been humiliated by Feng Wu!
