Chapter 992 - When His Highness Met His Love Rival (1/2)

Although Little Fatty Cheng was a timid boy, he was just like his mum. He could bully others, but he could not stand being bullied.

He made the call secretly behind Li Meng’s back.

It was because Little Fatty Cheng was so terrified when they left the hotel. His father kept insisting on divorcing his mom, he had never seen his dad so angry before.

Once his call went through, Little Fatty Cheng started crying miserably. First, he mentioned that his parents were quarreling. Then, he lamented that he was bullied by his cla.s.smate today and he begged his grandfather to seek justice on his behalf.

Everyone knew that the Li family had only one daughter, thus this grandson had become Li Qingzhu’s treasured grandson.

Li Qingzhu became greatly infuriated as he could not stand it when he heard that his grandson was bullied. He was in the education ministry, so he had quite a temper too. “Tell grandpa, is it the b.u.mpkin that you mentioned who bullied you?”

“Uhm!” Little Fatty Cheng immediately answered affirmatively, and continued crying so dramatically that he started belching.

Li Qingzhu swore silently before consoling him, “Cheng Cheng, tell grandpa where you are now. I will get someone to fetch you, are your parents still there?”

“Yes, they are,” he wailed. “We’re at E-Emperor Hotel, come quickly, grandpa.” Little Fatty Cheng sobbed as he hung up the phone, adamantly plotting his revenge to return the blow he received on his face. His mother had mentioned before that his grandfather had the authority to forbid people from receiving any education, so even the rich had to succ.u.mb to politicians like him!

Li Qingzhu stared at his phone momentarily and called the kindergarten immediately. First, he angrily berated the headmaster, which made him feel slightly better. However, his tone was still dissatisfied as he growled, “I tell you, you must transfer this Helian Qingchen out today! What kind of students are you taking in? What poor upbringing they have!”

The headmaster apologized incessantly, but he still replied responsibly, “Is there any misunderstanding between the two children? What if I get Qingchen to apologize to Cheng Cheng?”

“Headmaster Dong, children can be forgiven if they make mistakes once or twice. If they keep repeating their faults, as the Deputy Minister, I have to wonder if you are fit to be in your current position.” Li Qingzhu was obviously pressurizing him with his status. After saying that, he hung up immediately without waiting for the headmaster’s reply. He believed that the headmaster would be able to weigh the pros and cons, and settle this matter accordingly. How can a small b.u.mpkin even think of comparing themselves with our Cheng Cheng? He should look at himself in the mirror!

Li Qingzhu had just risen from his chair and was about to pick up his grandson, when the phone on his desk rang again.

He did not pay much attention and a.s.sumed that it was Headmaster Dong. Thus, he swiftly picked up the phone and yelled, “You’ve made up your mind, right? Fire him as soon as possible!”

“Deputy Minister Li.” A familiar chuckle echoed from the receiver. Every word that the caller spoke sounded extremely threatening, like an insurmountable pressure weighing on one’s shoulder, “Who are you thinking of firing?”

Li Qingzhu’s eyes trembled all of a sudden, his voice turned unsteady as he stammered, “Tang, Master Tang…”

“Heh.” The man indifferently propped his slender legs on the desk, as the abnormally sharp rays of light that were s.h.i.+ning through the large French windows fell on his boots.. Then, he asked casually, “I just received some information about your corruption from the Jue Wei Group today. I was going to take action in two to three days, but your att.i.tude makes me want to expedite your case.”

Li Qingzhu’s lips paled as he muttered, “N-No, Master Tang, please hear me out. I thought you were…”

“You thought it was Headmaster Dong that was calling?” The man interrupted his stuttering, as he fidgeted a long cigarette with his fingers. A smile was on his face, but his eyes were freezing cold as he continued, “Li Qingzhu, don’t you know that little Helian Qingchen is under the protection of Tang Sect? Oh right, you really don’t seem to know. But that’s ok, at least I know that your grandson frequently calls him a b.u.mpkin and you asked Headmaster Dong to expel him.”

This news was like a thunderbolt out of a clear sky!

Li Qingzhu fell weakly back into his wooden chair in shock. When he looked up again, someone had already handcuffed him.
