Rebirth of the Villainous Female Boss

Chapter 490: Chapter 464 Really Looking Forward to it (Monthly ticket 850+ updates)

Miss Zhao, the Class Teacher, only tested the waters, but Professor Liu took immediate action. The meaning was clear: Xiaoqian must be protected. Anyone who dared to mess with Xiaoqian would face her head-on.

This old lady never cared about complex relationships. She would defy anyone and everyone, let alone the Dean or the Principal. Though she might not be very popular, she was a figure no one dared to offend.

When Professor Liu clearly stated her stance, the Homeroom Teacher started worrying.

“This issue can be big or small. If they really want to push a public opinion attack, it won’t be good for us. Please understand, why don’t we let Chen Xiaoqian confront them? If there’s no fault, it’ll prove her innocence. If there is, we can’t ignore the school’s reputation.”

“Reputation? Have you guys ever thought about the school’s reputation when you fail to act as teachers should? She is innocent, there’s no need for confrontation. You guys should resolve it. When I step in, it’ll be serious.”

Professor Liu left no room for negotiation. Xiaoqian silently admired the way her teacher stood up for her. The old lady was quite heroic in this situation.

“But, um…” The Homeroom Teacher was torn between both sides.

She was just a minor character caught in the middle. She couldn’t afford to offend Professor Liu, nor did she dare to report back to the Dean.

Xiaoqian, having had enough of the spectacle, stood up.

“I’ll handle this. I know who’s behind this.”

“Chen Xiaoqian, you don’t have to step in, I’ll sort this out.” In Professor Liu’s mind, it was her responsibility. Regardless of her liking for Xiaoqian, her authorization for Xiaoqian to treat Wang Yafei made her responsible.

“It’s not a big deal. If I can’t handle it, then you can step in.”

The reason why Xiaoqian decided to handle this situation was twofold. On one hand, she wanted to put an end to the issue with her aunt. On the other hand, she was confident in her capability in resolving the problem.

Hiding behind a teacher may calm this storm, but it might also offend other leaders. If it wasn’t this issue, there was always a chance they would find something else to annoy her. There was no need to invite unnecessary trouble.

“You’re right. I trust your capability. Just be sure to resolve this issue. Ideally, handle it privately.” The Homeroom Teacher was satisfied with Xiaoqian’s behavior and nodded repeatedly.

Instant relief, the problem was no longer hers.

“So you and some student also privately resolved his failing grades issue, right? Did he give you cosmetics or a bag?” As soon as Professor Liu started speaking, the Homeroom Teacher felt awkward.

This old lady usually stayed out of such issues, but it seemed like nothing could slip past her.

“You guys carry on eating, I have to leave.”

The Homeroom Teacher couldn’t wait to leave.

Xiaoqian found it amusing to watch Professor Liu in her annoyed state and couldn’t help but console her.

“Teacher, why are you getting angry with them? It’s not a big deal, I have a way to resolve it.”

“I just can’t stand these people. They hide behind bureaucracy when anything happens. Just a small thing and it has been blown out of proportion. This wouldn’t even have been a big issue if the person reporting didn’t have status or influence. Chen Xiaoqian! have you been causing trouble?”

Professor Liu may have been angry, but her attitude towards outsiders is different from her students. The last sentence reflected the attitude of an elder towards a mischievous child.

“I’m as innocent as Dou’e. Who have I offended? Clearly, she just can’t let go of me!”

“You know who it is?”

“Yes, Yu Gangdan’s aunt, Yu Weiguo’s younger sister, Qi Jiao’s Aunt. It’s her. Her son had some past with me, it happened like this…”

Xiaoqian recounted the whole story from beginning to end. She didn’t see her teacher as an outsider. Besides, she had to explain clearly to prevent the old lady from nagging her for years to come.

Starting from how the Admission Notice was hidden by the Homeroom Teacher and her father, her engagement to the scumbag, how she met Yu Gangdan, to repeated conflicts with her aunt.

Professor Liu listened with her brows furrowed tightly, gritting her teeth in anger.

At the end, Professor Liu made a comment that left Xiaoqian amused.

“Yu Gangdan, that rascal, actually did something manly. Very good, he saved a Psychologist for our industry.”

Listening to all that and coming up with this conclusion was quite hilarious.

“So this is what troubles me. I know that relationships between people aren’t just full of conflict, there are also calmer ways to interact. But look at my aunt. She stirs up problems unprovoked. Once she comes at me, I strike back. She recoups and tries again. Tell me, why should I put up with such a paranoid old woman with a beautiful life?”

This time Xiaoqian decided to knock down her Aunt once and for all to end this messy situation. She couldn’t bear the constant annoyance.

“That irresponsible girl, not so smart but malicious. I didn’t like how she bullied Qi Lajiao initially, and it’s surprising she still hasn’t learned her lesson after so many years. I will have a talk with her- remind her about the time in 1983 when her husband was out of town, and she had a secret rendezvous with a mature admirer.”

Xiaoqian was taken aback, “Teacher, are you some kind of secret agent?”

How could she know this? This is unbelievable!

“It’s absolutely disgraceful! They’ve dared to cross me now! I must confront her, at her age, she should focus on gardening or improving herself with music, chess, calligraphy or painting. Instead, she’s constantly pestering others!”

“Teacher, don’t go. This is between her and me, I’ll handle it.”

“You?”

“Mmm, there’s a cause and effect, and it’s time for me to end it all. If I can’t handle it, then you can bring up that older man’s affair. —Teacher, did she really secretly meet with him?”

It’s surprising, who would have thought her aunt was that type of person?

“Hmm, what is done by night appears by day. If she dared to do it, she shouldn’t be scared that others will find out! Xiaoqian, as a psychologist, you may come across many secrets in the future. These secrets should be kept confidential and not disclosed indiscriminately. It’s unethical!”

“… So, are you trying to cover up something?” She balanced blame and praise so well, that it was quite amusing.

“Hmph!” Professor Liu turned her head away indignantly.

Xiaoqian curled her lip, it was time for her to show her abilities. Aunt, I can’t wait to meet you.
