Zuan said with a grin, "With the academy's status and your abilities, Principal, collecting debts from the Plum Blossom Gang shouldn't be too difficult."
Jiang Luofu said with a half-smile, "I was wondering why you were so generous, giving away 7.5 million taels of silver to the academy so easily. Well, I felt a little unfair to you before, but now I feel a bit better. I'll arrange the spot for you. Go to class now."
"Alright, goodbye beautiful principal!" Zuan waved with a smile and ran faster than a rabbit.
Jiang Luofu smiled slightly and murmured to herself, "He's quite an interesting lad."
However, when his gaze fell upon the IOU in front of him, and he remembered that the other party had just pulled it out from the sole of his shoe, his smile froze. He felt as if there was a faint smell of feet in the room. After putting the IOU away, he flicked his finger and simply threw the pen into the trash can.
Zu An walked towards the classroom with a relaxed expression. He had accomplished a major task and finally felt relieved. However, the loss of 7.5 million taels of silver still stung a little.
Forget it, let's leave it with the beautiful headmistress for a few days as a dowry. We'll take it all back, money and all, in the future.
If anyone at the school knew what he was thinking, they would be shocked. Many men like Principal Jiang, but he is the only one who dares to have such thoughts.
When I returned to the classroom, I found that class had already started. The teacher was a thin, middle-aged man with greasy hair and his bangs were styled in a middle part, which was very distinctive.
As Zu An tiptoed toward his seat, a loud slam rang out on the podium: "Who let you in!"
Because of the loud noise, many students who were fast asleep in the class were instantly awakened, and everyone's eyes were focused on Zu'an.
Zuan was completely baffled, wondering why this guy was getting angry at him. He could only say, "I saw the teacher was lecturing very seriously and didn't dare to disturb him, so I came in quietly."
The man with the middle parting snorted, "You were clearly late but didn't report it, and just swaggered in. You have no respect for your elders!"
Zuan was immediately annoyed. This guy was clearly using this as an excuse to cause trouble. I don't even know him, why is he targeting me like this?
The other classmates watched this scene with schadenfreude. Obviously, Zu An had previously won the favor of a great beauty, making countless men beat their chests in frustration. Naturally, they couldn't wait to see him suffer a setback.
However, Zu An calmly replied, "The reason I was late was because Principal Jiang called me in for a talk. If you don't believe me, why don't you go ask the principal?"
The thin, middle-aged man with a middle parting caught his breath. This guy actually used the principal to intimidate me?
Yang Wei's anger level increased by 44! (This is a cameo appearance by a reader named "Mr. Xue, who wishes to remain anonymous." It's chilling to think about why he would choose such a name for himself.)
Upon seeing the name in the back office, Zu An immediately gasped. "Hmm, the name really does reflect the person; you can tell just by looking at their face."
At this moment, Yang Wei on the podium was somewhat surprised and uncertain. Could this guy be related to Principal Jiang? He had never seen Principal Jiang care so much about a student.
The people over there asked for my help. I thought dealing with an ordinary student would be a piece of cake, so I readily agreed. Now it seems a bit troublesome. But we're all in the same boat, so it's too late to regret it now.
"What does Principal Jiang want with you?" To dispel his doubts, Yang Wei hurriedly asked.
Zuan shrugged: "He just asked me if I was settling in well at school or something."
Yang Wei frowned: "Go back to your seat first." Then he continued lecturing, but in his heart he was wondering what kind of relationship Principal Jiang had with him. She would never care about a student like this before.
After thinking for a while, he suddenly realized that Principal Jiang had been alone all these years, and apart from that girl in another class, he had never heard of her having any relatives or friends. How could she possibly have any relationship with this guy?
It seems that the Duke of Mingyue's mansion entrusted her to take care of things a little, and she gave him a few instructions out of politeness. Humph, she was almost fooled by him!
Yang Wei's anger level increased by 58!
Zuan, who was sitting in his seat, was stunned. When will this guy ever stop? Why is he picking on me?
He became secretly wary, wondering where he had offended this guy. But no matter how hard he thought about it, he couldn't think of any reason why they had a grudge. Could it be that he was too handsome, which led to too many women being infatuated with him, and the woman he liked was one of them?
"Boss, you're amazing!" came Veso's distinctive voice from the side.
“I have many impressive skills, which one are you referring to?” Zuan asked.
Vesso gave a thumbs up, this unique shamelessness is truly befitting of the boss: "Of course it's about the Silver Hook Gambling House winning 7.5 million taels of silver. The news has spread throughout the whole place, and everyone is wondering how you did it."
Zuan chuckled: "Of course, it's because of my unique charisma."
