Paishi Village Primary School did install a landline phone, which was required by the Education Bureau, but the money... came from Lin Yifeng.

"Principal Lin!"

On the other end of the phone was the voice of Wang Xinguo, the director of the Education Bureau. His voice was steady and deep.

"Just a heads up, there's a short meeting at the Shuiyun Town government at 3 p.m. today."

"A meeting regarding student learning arrangements for the new semester, as well as fire prevention, electrical safety, and other safety measures."

"Shuiyun Town invites you and Teacher Bai Yejin to participate together."

Wang Xinguo didn't wait for Lin Yifeng's reply, but instead told Lin Yifeng that he was in a meeting before hanging up the phone.

Lin Yifeng held the disconnected phone, a hint of confusion on his face.

I'm going to a short meeting at the Shuiyun Town government tomorrow.

Holding meetings is nothing unusual, so Lin Yifeng naturally had no objections.

but...

Why not invite him and Bai Yejin together?

If Lin Yifeng were to go alone, he would naturally have no suspicions.

But with the addition of a white hibiscus...

Lin Yifeng couldn't help but think of the leader of Shuiyun Town, the old man named Wang Chengyun.

At the completion ceremony of the new school in Paishi Village, the old man's gaze towards Bai Yejin was strange.

As a man, how could Lin Yifeng not understand that look?

"This old man, he can't hold back anymore so quickly?"

Wang Chengyun, one of the leaders of Shuiyun Town, is a man of considerable influence in the town, as he is practically the top leader.

At Lin Yifeng's current level, he's no match for this old man.

but...

No matter how strong the top official of Shuiyun Town is, he is still just a township official. Lin Yifeng is indeed no match for this old man.

But that doesn't mean Lin Yifeng can't deal with this guy.

If Lin Yifeng wanted to, he could still get Wang Chengyun involved, even if it came at a certain cost.

after all...

Wherever there are people, there is a world of its own.

Wherever there is a world of martial arts, there are also acts of kindness, loyalty, affection, and grudges.

Lin Yifeng did not believe that Wang Chengyun had no enemies.

As long as Wang Chengyun has enemies!

Lin Yifeng could kill him!

...

I'm going to a meeting at the Shuiyun Town government tomorrow, and I specifically asked to bring Teacher Bai Yejin along.

Lin Yifeng noted this down, and after the first class ended, he waved to Bai Yejin, who had returned to her office.

"Teacher Bai!"

"The Education Bureau will hold a meeting tomorrow regarding arrangements for new students and fire and electrical safety."

Lin Yifeng paused for a moment, then looked at Zhou Xuelan and Chen Mu, and said with a smile, "The Education Bureau specifically asked me to take you there."

"But Professor Bai, I'd like to cancel this meeting for you."

What do you think?

"You specifically named me and asked me to attend the meeting?"

Bai Yejin pointed to herself, her expression of surprise mirroring Lin Yifeng's.

She was an extremely intelligent person, and in the blink of an eye, she came up with something.

After exchanging a glance with Lin Yifeng, Bai Yejin confirmed her guess. She suddenly broke into a bright smile and put down the book in her hand.

"Teacher Zhou, I suddenly feel very unwell, so I need you to cover my class tomorrow!"

Bai Yejin blinked: "I'm not feeling well tomorrow, so I need to ask for a day off and rest."

"You'll cover my class tomorrow, and I'll cover yours the day after!"

Zhou Xuelan's doubts deepened. She also placed her book on the table and asked suspiciously, "You two shouldn't be keeping such secrets here."

Is there some special reason why Teacher Bai isn't allowed to attend tomorrow's meeting?

Zhou Xuelan looked at Bai Yejin, then at Lin Yifeng, not understanding why: "Principal Lin, why won't you let Teacher Bai participate?"

Logically speaking, shouldn't teachers attending meetings held by the Education Bureau be beneficial for their chances of being selected as outstanding teachers?

Teachers are evaluated for titles such as outstanding teacher and special-grade teacher.

Once you receive these awards, your salary will naturally increase.

The fact that the Shuiyun Town Education Bureau specifically named Bai Yejin to participate clearly benefits her.

Zhou Xuelan didn't quite understand this.

Zhou Xuelan was still young and had never encountered anything like this before, so she didn't know the intricacies involved.

Lin Yifeng didn't explain anything, but glanced at Zhou Xuelan and agreed to Bai Yejin's request for leave.

"Since you're taking leave, then take two more days off."

"Xiao Jin hasn't been home for a long time, so she'll take three days off to go home and visit."

"Teacher Zhou, I'd like to trouble you a little for the next three days to cover for Teacher Bai's classes."

"Three days from now, I'll also grant you a three-day leave, and let Teacher Bai cover your classes!"

Lin Yifeng said, and Zhou Xuelan waved her hands repeatedly, saying, "It's okay, it's okay, I'm not tired at all."

"I just don't quite understand what's going on here; it seems there must be some reason!"

Zhou Xuelan didn't understand. She had a strong desire to know, and she looked intently at Lin Yifeng, wanting to know what was going on.

"I'll have Bai Yejin tell you about it after school at noon."

"Let's not talk about it here."

It's not that Lin Yifeng doesn't trust Zhou Xuelan.

This matter has nothing to do with Teacher Chen Mu or Zhou Xuelan.

Lin Yifeng didn't take the dead old man Wang Chengyun seriously.

But Zhou Xuelan and Chen Mu are not suitable.

The top official of Shuiyun Town can still instill fear in a group of people.
