Signing In At The Civil Affairs Bureau, I Was Rewarded With A Gorgeous Wife

"Hello, hello, may I ask which one of you is Secretary Li?"

The middle-aged man stood still, took a couple of breaths to compose himself, and then asked.

Just a few minutes before, he was in his office dealing with paperwork when suddenly a call came from above, saying a leader was coming for an inspection and that he should prepare for the reception.

But how could he be prepared for such a sudden event!

However, since the leader's visit was so unexpected, it might be a test of their responsiveness.

So, while cursing under his breath, he put on his coat in a fluster and ran out to the school entrance without choosing his path carefully.

But upon arrival at the entrance and seeing just a handful of sparse figures, the middle-aged man was startled.

Every time leaders from above came to inspect, it was always with a crowd. Why had this changed?

"That would be me."

Li Tian stepped forward and said indifferently, "I came here because I encountered a very nasty fighting incident on the way! I think I need to have a serious talk with you, the principal who is supposed to educate and instruct!"

"Ah?"

The principal looked around in shock, and when he saw the girl, his heart sank half a beat!

This was definitely a call to account!!!

This Sun Qianqian!!!

Always causing me trouble!!!

"This... how can this be..."

The principal wiped the sweat from his forehead and asked with a slight bow.

"Hmph! This girl organized the beating of a student in broad daylight! Do you think this behavior isn't despicable? How do you, the principal, discipline your students! If anything serious were to happen, you, the principal, would bear the brunt of the responsibility!"

Li Tian's expression was cold as if a layer of frost could be scraped off.

The principal's face turned bitter upon hearing these words.

He, too, wanted to deal with Sun Qianqian appropriately!

He had even considered expelling her on several occasions.

But each time he was about to take action, his superiors would give him a slight hint.

Even whenever Sun Qianqian made a mistake, someone would promptly come to deal with it. As long as she wasn't expelled, whether it involved compensation or apologies, they could take care of it.

And it was precisely because of the generous compensation offered each time that the parents of the beaten students, at most, grumbled a bit but never pursued the matter further.

But this made the principal's job difficult!

This time, Sun Qianqian had hit a snag, and it seemed the principal himself would be dragged down too!

"Secretary Li is right, I reflect and I regret."

The principal said, bowing, "How about we go inside to talk? There are quite a few students coming and going here, and it's not a good influence."

"You still know about influence!"

Li Tian snorted coldly, but he did not deny the other man face, after all, he wasn't the principal's direct supervisor. His purpose in coming to hold them accountable was simply to grasp the "principle" of the matter and incidentally to do a favor for Song Yun and the others.

The principal led the way, and the group entered the principal's office, where the principal rummaged for tea leaves to make tea and pour water for everyone.

"No need for all that fuss."

Li Tian said with a slight frown, "What I want is a resolution. As far as I know, this girl is a repeat offender, right? Every time she bullies her classmates, her family just deals with the aftermath, and then she continues to lord over the school. I want to know, what kind of principal are you!"

"This..."

The principal looked at Li Tian with a bitter expression, glanced at Sun Qianqian who seemed indifferent, and sighed, "How about I call Sun Qianqian's parents here, and you can communicate with them directly?"

At this, Li Tian paused, visibly taken aback. Was this an attempt to shirk responsibility?

Or was it that Sun Qianqian's family connection was so strong that the principal didn't dare to take action?

Whatever the behavior, it was extremely despicable!

Li Tian, as a secretary who had access to the inner circle of power, might not be a top-level secretary, but he had his own set of wisdom. Seeing the principal's expression, he fell into deep thought.

"Alright, you can summon this girl's parents," he said.

Song Yun took a sip of tea and mentioned, "I am quite curious about what kind of family this girl comes from."

"Okay, I'll go contact them now," came the reply.

Although the principal didn't know Song Yun's identity, directives from above made it clear that the secretary visiting was of a very high status, and anyone who could speak beside Secretary Li must also be of no low rank.

"You go back to your class for now, we will handle the matter here," Song Yun said to the beaten young man in a soft voice.

The youth seemed to have deduced from the principal's behavior that these people in front of him were definitely not ordinary!

He bowed deeply to Song Yun and sincerely said, "Thank you for your help."

After speaking, he left the principal's office.

Ten minutes later.

The principal sheepishly said as he opened the door, "Sun Qianqian's parents are very busy and probably won't be able to come personally, but they have appointed a lawyer who said they would arrive within half an hour."

"Appointing a lawyer? What grand treatment!"

Whenever Li Tian went out, it was others who waited for him; the notion of him waiting for others was preposterous!

Though he was 'just' a secretary, it mattered to whom he was a secretary. As a member of the inner circle secretarial office, he interacted daily with high-profile individuals, and people would always greet him with a smile when he was out on duties.

After all, Secretary Liu had the ear of powerful people—should he catch one's minor mistakes and mention them casually, wouldn't the leaders take note?

But today was unusual, for not only did he have to sit and wait for half an hour, he wouldn't even meet the actual concerned party.

"Hmph! Once the lawyer my parents have appointed gets here, I'll make sure you all get sued to your last dime!" Sun Qianqian, who had the cloth taken out of her mouth upon entering the school to preserve her image, and had kept silent up until then, now boldly spoke out, as nobody bothered with a spoiled girl.

Her words startled the principal.

"Sun Qianqian! When you make a mistake, you should have a repentant heart! You can't be so arrogant just because of your special family background!" the principal shouted anxiously.

"That's none of your business!" Sun Qianqian retorted loudly, "I will sue you until you're bankrupt! After all, I'm not short of money or time!"

"Heh,"

Song Yun chuckled and shook his head as he said, "Ouyang Jie, gag her mouth."

"You dare, the lawyer will be here soon... Mmmmm!!!"

Sun Qianqian's words were cut off as Ouyang Jie tore off another piece of cloth from his jacket and stuffed it into her mouth.

"Isn't this a bit..."

The principal sighed numerous times today, wondering what would happen if the lawyer, called by Sun Qianqian's parents, witnessed this scene?

Considering that lawyers were skilled in arguing cases, bringing the dead back to life and sending the living to their graves in court!

And if someone from Li Secretary's side dared to do this, it meant they were ready for an all-out fight!

"Knock, knock, knock!"

Someone knocked on the door of the principal's office. The inevitable was coming.

"Come in."

Two lawyers, dressed in suits and carrying briefcases, walked in.

Upon seeing Sun Qianqian restrained and gagged by a stranger, their expressions began to twist into something odd.
