Chapter 221 Letter of Guarantee and Apology
Shu Cheng'an and Shu Ying didn't want to talk to her.
They were the only two people present who knew where Wen Zhile had gone, and if they didn't say anything, others would have nothing to say.
Seeing that no one answered her, Zheng Lian became even more furious.
"One and the other are both villains who are trying to curry favor with the powerful!"
"Who are you talking about? If you are sick, go take medicine! Why are you going to school in broad daylight?"
"This is our office, not someone's territory to show off."
Teacher Qian spoke in a strangled voice, and Teacher Li, who was watching the excitement at the door, rushed in like a fly, knocking Zheng Lian away and stepping on her foot.
"Teacher Qian, Teacher Qian, Teacher Zheng has been fired, she has resigned, and she won't be able to come to the office anymore. Please have some mercy on her and don't bother with her."
Teacher Qian laughed out loud.
"Yes, yes, Xiao Li is right. We should not argue with her like an unemployed vagrant."
Zheng Lian glared at them, and they glared back.
Qian, Li and Zheng have been at odds with each other for a long time, but they never made it public before and kept it to themselves.
Now that Zheng Lian is leaving, I will have nowhere to vent my anger if I continue hiding.
After two minutes of arguing, the comrades from the Ministry of Education interrupted their argument and took Zheng Lian to another empty office for interrogation.
After an hour they came out.
The local public security comrades in Suzhou continued the interrogation.
He was interrogated for another hour.
When Zheng Lian came out, her whole body was shaking.
After he recovered, he looked for Wen Zhile everywhere.
Wen Zhile is now celebrating his birthday in the highest-standard hotel in Suzhou.
All the family and friends gathered together, and she was overwhelmed with gifts. The last gift was from Zhou Jihuai:
A new guqin carefully made for her by a well-known old guqin maker.
Speaking of the origin of this guqin, it has a long history.
That was more than half a year ago. When Zhou Jihuai first heard that Wen Zhile was learning guqin with Qu Jinghong, he immediately asked someone to find this old guqin maker.
I originally planned to ask him to make a new one, but when I saw that the old master had a guitar that he had made for eight or nine years, I decided to order it immediately.
The master polished it for another half a year and it was completed a few days ago.
You can tell whether a good guqin is good or not the moment you pick it up.
This guitar is made of high-quality wood. When you plucking it lightly, the sound lingers around the beams.
Wen Zhile couldn't put it down.
Qu Jinghong was talking to Shu Ye when he heard Qin Yin look at Zhou Jihuai and said with a smile: "Xiao Zhou spent money."
"As long as Zhizhi likes it."
Zhou Jihuai looked at Wen Zhile's smiling face and felt happy in his heart.
The little girl was already seventeen years old. When he thought back to the six months or so they had known each other, he felt that time had passed so quickly.
When I think about it this way, eighteen or twenty isn’t far away.
…
Today is Monday, a weekday and a school day.
Fortunately, Wen Zhile only had one class in the afternoon, so he played until three o'clock in the afternoon before rushing to school.
On the way back, she took Zhou Jihuai's car alone.
After arriving at the teaching building, the man got off the car carrying a birthday cake and two pockets full of gifts.
When he looked up, he saw Zheng Lian walking towards him angrily.
"Zhi Le!"
Jiang Yuan, who had been waiting outside the teaching building, rushed over first, followed closely by Jing Kun.
Zhou Jihuai turned around and pulled Wen Zhile behind him.
The little girl leaned over to look at Zheng Lian and gave the cake to Jiang Yuan.
"Sister Yuanyuan, this is for you and Senior Jing."
Jiang Yuan quickly caught it: "Oh thank you, I've been wanting to eat it for a long time."
"Someone from the Ministry of Education came this morning and I heard that Zheng Lian was banned from teaching anymore."
"Look, she didn't even have lunch just to wait for you. Be careful with her and don't let her do anything messy again."
"Don't be fooled by her words that she can just stop being a teacher. In fact, if she is really not allowed to be a teacher, she will be more upset than anyone else."
"It's okay." Wen Zhile curled her lips, "Comrade Zhou is here."
Jiang Yuan winked jokingly: "Yo yo yo, yes."
"With Comrade Zhou here, no one can hurt you."
"I've finished what I want to say. I'm not needed here, so I'll leave now."
After saying that, he pulled Jing Kun back to the teaching building.
Zheng Lian tried to get past Zhou Jihuai but failed every time. She could only question Wen Zhile through him:
"How dare you find someone from the Ministry of Education?! I've already resigned, what else do you want? Do you really have to do this to cut off my chances of recovery?"
Wen Zhile wanted to see how her brain worked.
"My attitude is very clear. I will write an apology letter and apologize in public."
"Teacher Zheng, did you forget so quickly?"
Zheng Lian was furious: "Didn't I apologize?"
"A private apology is the first step to resolve the issue, but you refused it yourself."
"If you still need me to help you recall such a small matter, you are definitely not fit to be a teacher."
Wen Zhile didn't want to get entangled with her any more, so she took Zhou Jihuai's arm and walked towards the teaching building.
Zhou Jihuai followed her obediently and glanced at Zheng Lian impatiently before turning around.
The striking appearance at close range and the unique temperament of a superior cultivated since childhood made her freeze in place, not daring to take another step forward.
"Zhizhi, I'll take you to the classroom."
"Okay, bro."
Wen Zhile smiled, seemingly not affected by Zheng Lian.
Seeing this, Zhou Jihuai felt relieved. He sent her to the classroom and chatted with her for a while before leaving when the bell rang.
When he went downstairs, Zheng Lian was gone. He found Jing Kun, chatted with him for a few words, and then drove back to the hotel.
Shu Cheng'an was chatting with the local police officers in Suzhou. When he saw him enter the lobby, he waved and said, "Brother Huai, this way!"
Zhou Jihuai walked over and politely shook hands with the two police officers.
"Hello, Comrade Zhou."
"Regarding the rumors about Comrade Wen, they have been properly handled."
"If Comrade Wen has any other requests, he can call the police station directly."
Shu Cheng'an continued their conversation and handed Zhou Jihuai two pieces of paper.
"Brother Huai, Zheng Lian has written a letter of guarantee and apology that she will never harass Zhizhi again. Please give it to Zhizhi later."
Zhou Jihuai raised his lips slightly: "Okay."
He looked at the two police officers and said, "Thank you for your hard work today."
"I have to go back to the army later, so I'll let Cheng'an treat you two to a simple meal on my behalf."
"Okay, okay, Comrade Zhou, you're busy!"
After that, Zhou Jihuai said hello to Shu Chengan and drove back to school.
Wen Zhile was listening to the class when he suddenly caught a glimpse of Zhou Jihuai standing by the front door of the classroom.
She thought she was dazzled, so she looked away and looked again.
Zhou Jihuai smiled and lifted the two pieces of paper in his hand.
Wen Zhile raised his hand immediately.
The English teacher glanced at her, was amused by the obvious "look at me, look at me" expression on her face, and nodded.
Wen Zhile then ran out along the wall, pulling Zhou Jihuai outside before taking the two pieces of paper.
"Brother, why are you back again? What's this?"
"Hey, an apology letter?"
Zhou Jihuai: "Written by Zheng Lian."
"Good things like this can't wait, so I came back right away."
Wen Zhile quickly scanned the contents, folded them up and put them away with a smile: "This can also be considered one of the birthday gifts."
"Have my dad and the others left?"
"Still in the hotel, do you want to go find them?"
"I want to have dinner together, but the time is limited..."
"There's still time." Zhou Jihuai looked at her with a smile.
"I'll pick you up after class, and then take you back to evening study after dinner."
Wen Zhile was afraid of delaying his work and did not agree, but Zhou Jihuai did not give in and even said, "Just think of it as giving him time to spend more time with her."
The effect was indeed good. As soon as I finished speaking, the little girl stopped talking and blushed.
The matter was settled, and Zhou Jihuai did not return to the army, but waited in school until she finished class.
After having dinner together, I sent her downstairs to the teaching building and accompanied her upstairs to the classroom before leaving.
If it wasn't unrealistic, Zhou Jihuai would have wanted to help her go to school.
After two evening self-study classes, Wen Zhile went to the first floor to find Jiang Yuan and went back to the dormitory building.
As soon as I entered the building, I ran into the dormitory manager who was going out to take out the trash. The latter said, "Hey!" "Wen Zhile? I just happened to have your number."
"The call just ended over there. If you call back now, maybe they can pick it up!"
"Hey, I didn't realize that Captain Zhou is so clingy. He called me in the evening right after I left in the afternoon."
Wen Zhile couldn't help laughing: "Sister Yuanyuan, you go back first."
"Okay, okay, I won't bother you guys with your phone calls."
Jiang Yuan made a few more jokes before going upstairs alone.
Wen Zhile walked to the dormitory management office and looked at the small blackboard standing by the window.
There were several phone numbers and names written on it.
She saw her name at a glance, but the number following her name was not from the Northwest Military Region.
She was a little surprised because the first few digits of the number were a fixed number in Jingzhou.
My parents have all come to Suzhou, and Senior Sister Fang and Sister Qiao have already called to wish me a happy birthday.
It's so late now, who could be calling from Jingzhou?
