"Middle-aged man?"
Qu Jingyun thought it over in his mind and had a candidate in mind. After signaling Xiao Li to go out, he picked up the phone and dialed.
As soon as the phone rang, it was quickly picked up:
"Hello, who is this?"
Qu Jingyun smiled warmly and said:
"Hello, Principal Chen, I'm Qu Jingyun."
The person on the other end of the phone suddenly became excited, and even the tone of voice became much higher:
"Oh my God! Captain Qu! You finally called!"
When Qu Jingyun heard this, she knew that she had guessed right. As Guangyao was approaching the critical moment of admission to higher education, the only person who could be looking for her so urgently was Vice Principal Chen!
"Excuse me, Principal Chen, I'm on sick leave for a while. What do you want to talk to me about? Has Guangyao's admission quota been confirmed?"
Qu Jingyun was full of anticipation at this moment. If Qi Guangyao's admission quota really came out, it would be a coincidence that she could solve her urgent problem!
Taking the opportunity to tell Qi Mingyuan this great news, isn't it a small matter for her to ask him for some money?
Vice Principal Chen's hair has turned many white these past two days due to his anxiety. He finally waited for Qu Jingyun to call him, but this silly woman was still dreaming that her son could be admitted, not knowing that his student status would be in jeopardy!
"Captain Qu! You're still thinking about getting recommended for admission. Do you know that I've been badly hurt by your Qi Guangyao?"
Qu Jingyun's expression froze, and the corners of his mouth froze on his face:
"...What happened?"
She had been dealing with Vice Principal Chen for so many years, but this was the first time she heard him yelling so out of control on the other end of the phone. She must have had something serious happen to Guangyao at school, and her heart suddenly tightened.
Vice Principal Chen's voice on the other end of the phone was full of dissatisfaction:
"Captain Qu, didn't I remind you before that the joint exam must be taken seriously and that no evil intentions should be employed? But why didn't you listen?!"
Joint examination?
During this period of time, she was busy dealing with Qi Mingyuan and the art troupe every day, and had no time to be distracted by Qi Guangyao's joint examination. Now that she was accused by Vice Principal Chen, Qu Jingyun felt confused.
"Principal Chen, is there some misunderstanding here? Guangyao's previous joint exam results were pretty good. I've been so busy with work lately that I haven't had time to ask about this matter. How could I have any ulterior motives?"
Vice Principal Chen was furious. He had been caught cheating in the exam. What was the point of pretending to be stupid and refusing to admit it?
"Captain Qu, we've known each other for years. There's no need for official language between us. I'll be frank. Your Qi Guangyao has been caught cheating on this joint exam by the invigilators. The matter has now been reported to the provincial authorities. How do you plan to handle this?"
Vice Principal Chen's words were like a bolt from the blue, causing Qu Jingyun's scalp to tingle. It took him a while to come back to his senses.
"Qi Guangyao cheated on the joint entrance exam? Impossible! You must have the wrong person!"
Vice Principal Chen felt sad when talking about this. It would have been fine if Qi Guangyao had cheated himself, but he actually resorted to hiring a ghostwriter, and another top-performing student in their school was caught as well, breaking the record of cheating in the joint entrance examination in Ning City over the years.
Even if Vice Principal Chen is lucky enough not to be implicated by them this time, this incident will always leave a shameful mark on his work resume, and it will be almost hopeless for him to make any further progress.
"I wanted to make a mistake, but two test papers with the same name and student ID as Qi Guangyao appeared in the examination room. The head of the invigilation team personally sealed and inspected them. That's irrefutable evidence!"
"I called you as soon as I got the news, but you took a leave of absence. I asked your colleagues for your home phone number, but they refused to give it to me. I've been so anxious these past few days!"
"The whole thing has now been reported to the provincial government. I believe a notice will be issued in a few days. By then, Qi Guangyao and the student who acted as the assassin will definitely be expelled from school. You should quickly think of a solution!"
"Also, if the investigation team comes to investigate, remember not to mention that we know each other, and don't even mention the usual exams. The more information the investigation team finds, the more unfavorable the punishment for Qi Guangyao will be!"
After hearing these words, Qu Jingyun felt like her heart was about to jump out of her throat, and the noise was so loud that her eardrums were ringing. Fortunately, her brain kept telling her that now was not the time to lose her temper, and she should try to stay calm so that she could handle the matter as well as possible.
Qu Jingyun took a few deep breaths, trying to slow down his rapid breathing as much as possible, and then calmed himself down and said:
"Principal Chen, I really don't know what you're talking about. Does Guangyao know about this now?"
Vice Principal Chen was surprised to hear Qu Jingyun's tone, which didn't seem like she was lying.
"He didn't know his cheating had been discovered yet. To avoid alerting the suspect, the invigilation team wouldn't announce this to the public until the investigation was complete. That's why I rushed to find you the moment I got the news that day!"
"If you had known about this a few days earlier and used your connections in time, maybe you wouldn't have gotten into so much trouble with the province right now!"
Qu Jingyun was regretting her decision to leave. If she had known that such a big thing would happen in the next few days, she would never have asked for leave. But it was too late to say that now. The most urgent thing was to find Qi Mingyuan and find a way to save Qi Guangyao.
"Principal Chen, I'll go home and figure it out. If you have any updates on this matter, please contact me immediately. My home phone number is..."
After hanging up the phone, Qu Jingyun felt a sharp pain in his temple.
But at this time she didn't dare to delay for another minute, so she picked up her handbag and hurried out of the office.
Xiao Li was also on the phone. Seeing Qu Jingyun coming out of the office, he quickly called out to her:
"Deputy Captain Qu, Captain Liang..."
"I'm busy now!"
Qu Jingyun said this in a decisive tone and walked away quickly without looking back, without noticing the surprised expression on Xiao Li's face behind him.
Liang Jinchun on the other end of the phone was so angry that his face turned green. He heard everything Qu Jingyun had just said clearly. Since when did a superior have to wait until the subordinate was free to talk to him?!
Not only did she take such a long sick leave, but she didn't even bother to come to the office to check in when she first arrived. Instead, she's been hiding in the office making phone calls ever since, leaving him with no choice but to call other people to call her. And she actually said she's busy?!
Liang Jinchun rarely got angry at Qu Jingyun in public, and said harshly to the other end of the phone:
"Call Qu Jingyun to my office immediately!"
There was a suffocating silence on the other end of the phone. After a moment, Xiao Li's trembling voice came:
"Captain Liang, Deputy Captain Qu... is gone..."
