“How did he find out about this?”

The sudden heavy news made Liu Meihong feel like she was sitting on flames, being violently scorched.

The female teacher asked timidly, “Principal, what’s… what’s wrong with you?”

Liu Meihong, with no mood to chat, hurriedly urged, “Quickly go see if the parent from just now has left.”

Ah?

What is this all about?

The female teacher was utterly confused and had no idea what had happened.

Could it be that the parent just now had a terrifying background?

That shouldn’t be the case,

As the principal of Rakshasa City Public Primary School, Liu Meihong was a genuine deputy director-level official, and with the resources at her disposal, even some director-level officials meant nothing in front of her.

Who could be so powerful as to scare her like this?

Even though she was completely baffled, the female teacher still obediently walked to the office door, opened it a crack, peeked out, then closed it again and whispered, “Principal, he is still here, but he seems to have fallen asleep.”

Liu Meihong’s brows were unconsciously furrowed into a ‘川’ shape, and she said in a deep voice, “Call him… no, invite him in…”

“Forget it, I’ll go myself.”

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

Liu Meihong stood up from her chair, not bothering to smooth out her somewhat creased top, and walked straight to the office door. Looking at Lin Mo, she asked, “Lin Mo? You’re called Lin Mo, right? What do you mean by this?”

However, Lin Mo appeared not to have heard her, keeping his head down and his eyes closed, as if he truly had fallen asleep.

“You!”

Liu Meihong had just received the information, so she was certain that Lin Mo was not asleep at all.

In her view, Lin Mo’s current behavior was nothing but an act!

A parent of a student from out of town daring to put on airs in front of her made her extremely angry.

But there was nothing she could do,

With the leverage in someone else’s hands, Liu Meihong felt constrained and dared not express her anger.

All she could do was suppress her internal fury and say calmly, “Mr. Lin, if you have any requests, we can go to my office to discuss them slowly.”

Lin Mo remained with his eyes closed, unmoved.

The female teacher, witnessing this scene, became even more convinced of her previous thoughts.

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

This parent called Lin Mo must have a terrifying influence that overshadows the principal’s.

Otherwise, Liu Meihong wouldn’t be acting like this.

The female teacher hesitated for a moment, then asked in a low voice, “Principal, should I wake him up?”

Liu Meihong lowered her voice, “No need. You go to the school gate and get ready to welcome the parents coming for the meeting.”

“Remember what just happened, you’re not allowed to tell anyone, otherwise, you can stop working here.”

The female teacher was startled, promptly nodded timidly, and turned to leave this place of trouble.

In the corridor, only Liu Meihong remained standing at the office door, and Lin Mo sitting in the chair pretending to sleep.

Liu Meihong was very clear about Lin Mo’s purpose—it was to exact revenge for making him wait for hours.

So there was nothing she could do but to wait by his side obediently.

A few minutes later.

Really unable to bear the back pain any longer, Lin Mo slowly opened his eyes.

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

He took out his phone and saw that it was already past 5 o’clock in the afternoon.

“It’s so late already…”

“It’s time to go.”

Lin Mo rose to his feet, completely ignoring Liu Hongmei as if she was thin air, and made his way towards the staircase.

Before he even took a step out, Liu Meihong’s voice had already risen: “Mr. Lin, please wait a moment.”

Lin Mo turned around, surprised to see Liu Meihong, and smilingly said, “Oh? I’m sorry, I didn’t see you there. Are you free now, Principal Liu?”

“Mr. Lin, I apologize for taking up your time. If you don’t mind, let’s talk in my office,” Liu Meihong said, her heart boiling with anger, yet feeling like she had exhausted all her strength punching into a sandbag.

“Really? Are you free now?” Lin Mo asked, nodding with delight.

“Yes, I’m finished with my tasks!” Liu Hongmei clenched her teeth.

The two of them walked into the office, one after the other.

Liu Meihong had barely reached her desk to sit down when she noticed Lin Mo standing by the door, looking at her expressionlessly.

The atmosphere turned bizarre.

Liu Meihong, who had already sat down halfway, finally realized something and stood up again, politely moving a chair for Lin Mo in front of the desk.

“Mr. Lin, please take a seat. Would you like something to drink?”

If she was going to manipulate the situation, she needed to make the other party completely submissive.

Lin Mo, having lived for 30 years, understood these basic psychological tactics.

It’s just that he never liked to interact with people in this way.

“You needn’t trouble yourself, I’m not very thirsty. How could I be after only a few hours of waiting?”

Lin Mo sat down, maintaining a very polite tone as he spoke.

Liu Meihong quickly poured a cup of warm water for Lin Mo, then returned to her seat. After brewing her thoughts for a while, she asked, “How did you find out about that matter?”

“Ah? What matter?” Lin Mo pretended to not understand.

Liu Meihong also realized that her question was redundant and decided to be direct, “Mr. Lin, as long as you agree to keep this a secret for me, you can name your terms.”

Lin Mo smiled, still speaking very politely, “I think you’ve misunderstood. I just wanted to discuss the bullying incident involving Zhang Ziyue from the third grade (class 2) towards a student from out of town.”

Upon hearing this, Liu Meihong was just as astonished as when she received the earlier text message, inadvertently blurting out, “Is… is that all?”

Lin Mo nodded: “The matter was quite simple to begin with, it was you who made it complicated.”

They locked eyes.

The room fell into a brief silence.

After a dozen seconds,

Liu Meihong answered solemnly, “Mr. Lin, I assure you, as long as I remain the principal of this school, your daughter will never be bullied by anyone again.”

“But I beg you, I love my husband very much… Would you please not divulge this matter to him?”

This was the first time Lin Mo had seen, in reality, a person he considered significant, pleading for mercy.

She appeared as humble as a fierce dog with its tail between its legs.

The situation was progressing very smoothly.

But that was to be expected,

for the principal of a public primary school in a prosperous city leads a stable and enviable life.

Yet, if her affair were exposed, her career and family would undoubtedly come to an end, and she would also face social condemnation, not to mention her lover being implicated.

Even though Lin Mo held no concrete evidence, did he need it? Some secrets are powerful just by being known.

Having achieved his goal, Lin Mo didn’t want to waste any more words.

He slowly got up, looking into Liu Meihong’s eyes, filled with shock and fear, and said, “Principal Liu, I don’t understand what you’re talking about. What matter?”

“I’m just a small fry from the countryside, how could I possibly know about your affairs, Principal Liu?”
