The man’s expression collapsed in an instant. He slumped weakly to the ground. He seemed in despair.
“Don’t tell my wife and child… I-I don’t know that girl. Someone came to me and asked me to do this. The person gave me 500,000 yuan, and it tempted me. I know I was wrong. Please let me go!”
The man knelt in front of Qiao Chen with a “thud”.
Qiao Chen looked daggers at the lowly ant-like man in front of him.
How do these people have the audacity to bully Xu Wan?
“Who found you?” Qiao Chen asked coldly.
“I don’t know.” There was a look of confusion in the man’s eyes. “That person contacted me through the phone and even used a voice changer. However, I asked her a few more questions. I asked her what feud she had with Xu Wan. Why did she insist on using such a method that’d ruin Xu Wan’s reputation to teach Xu Wan a lesson? That person said that Xu Wan was a b*tch and stole her man. She cursed Xu Wan over the phone. I felt she hated Xu Wan a lot.”
Qiao Chen’s expression changed upon hearing this.
“I have nothing else for you now. Go write a clarification statement and post it on the school website. Then post an apology to Xu Wan on Weibo.” Qiao Chen ordered callously.
The man agreed meekly and walked out of the office.
“Master Qiao, do you know who framed Xu Wan?” the vice-principal asked carefully as he observed Qiao Chen’s expression.
Qiao Chen stood up abruptly. “I’ll remember your help in this matter. In the future, I don’t want to see anything happen to Xu Wan in school. Do you understand?”
“Understood! I will definitely protect Xu Wan well. I will contact the Academic Affairs Office regarding this matter. It won’t affect her results. When the time comes, we will give her a chance to compete normally for the guaranteed admission slots of the research institute. Master Qiao, the research institute will review the guaranteed admission slots on their end. I can’t help Miss Xu with this matter. Please forgive me,” the vice-principal said reverently
“Yeah, that’s fine. Does she want to get into a research institute? What’s so good about that damned place?” Qiao Chen furrowed his brows and asked. However, he didn’t need the vice-principal’s answer. After settling the matter, he left T University.
It was getting late by the time he walked out of the university gate.
As he thought about how that delicate and stubborn woman was still waiting for him, Qiao Chen felt like he was missing something for the first time.
He had never experienced such a miraculous feeling before.
Back at the hotel, Xu Wan received a call from Qiao Chen. She came out of the hotel and got into Qiao Chen’s car. She looked at him cautiously. “How is it?”
Seeing how arrogant Xu Wan was previously, Qiao Chen had thought that she was fearless. It turned out that she was also worried about this matter.
“It’s all done. You can go to school for your lessons normally now.”
Xu Wan heaved a huge sigh of relief and said to Qiao Chen uneasily, “Thank you for this time.”
“Indeed, I did you a huge favor.” Qiao Chen admitted shamelessly. He had no intention of being courteous to Xu Wan. He smirked and glanced at Xu Wan. “So, how would you thank me?”
“Ah?” Xu Wan was stunned. “Aren’t we in a business relationship? I’ll act as your fiancée while you help me settle this matter. I don’t owe you anything!”
“You act as my fiancée, and I’ll pay you a salary, so we’re in an employment relationship. Me helping you settle your school matters is doing you a favor. In short, you still owe me.” Qiao Chen took advantage of Xu Wan unabashedly.
Xu Wan frowned and pondered for a while. Why did she feel that what he said made sense?
She never thought that the reason she wanted to act as Qiao Chen’s fiancée was that he forced her to. If it wasn’t for Qiao Chen’s threat, she wouldn’t have voluntarily acted as his fiancée.
“If you have any troubles in the future, I will help you too. Although I feel you won’t encounter any problems that you can’t solve, right? If there are problems you can’t solve, I don’t think I can either.” Xu Wan replied sincerely.
“You can’t say that.” Qiao Chen grabbed Xu Wan’s hand and placed it on his knee. “There are some things that I can’t solve by myself.”
“Like what?” Xu Wan blinked and stared at Qiao Chen.
“Like matters of biological needs.” After Qiao Chen said this, he saw Xu Wan’s face turn red at a speed visible to the naked eye. Xu Wan glared at him indignantly. “How could you be so shameless!”
Qiao Chen laughed out loud. He felt that teasing Xu Wan was a very interesting thing.
This little girl wasn’t stupid, but she wasn’t as smart and cunning as him. Hence, she would always be bullied by him.
The two of them were sitting in the car when someone suddenly knocked on the window.
Qiao Chen looked outside and saw Han Bing’s face.
“Qiao Chen, are you still a man? What’s so great about forcing a woman? Return Wan Wan to me. She doesn’t like you. If you have some self-awareness, get lost quickly. Don’t stop me from dating Wan Wan!” Han Bing glared at Qiao Chen..
