Chapter 167: From Chen Kun1...
Director Zhao calmly and authoritatively gazed at Zhang Qiu, the pen in his hand gliding between his fingers. Zhang Qiu got straight to the point: "Director, I would like to request leave to go home." Zhang Qiu said, while Jiang Xue quietly observed the director's facial expression, praying that he would agree.
Director Zhao asked calmly, "What for?"
"A family gathering."
Director Zhao pointed at Jiang Xue and asked, "Are you two going together?"
"Yes, we're both going; Second Uncle's family is coming."
Director Zhao inquired further, "Have you talked to your homeroom teacher?"
"Yes, I just came from there after getting the signature." Zhang Qiu handed over the leave request signed by Zhao Guohong.
Director Zhao took it, signed his name with ease, and returned it to Zhang Qiu, reminding him, "You need to study hard during this time; getting into a second-tier university shouldn't be a problem for you."
"Thank you, Director." Zhang Qiu expressed gratitude as he left with Jiang Xue. Once outside the Director's Office, Jiang Xue patted her chest in relief and said, "He really didn't criticize us; my heart was racing."
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Jiang Xue noticed Zhang Qiu staring at her.
Zhang Qiu smiled and said, "I'm just curious. You're not afraid of fighting, but why are you so scared when it comes to Director Zhao?"
"Hmph." Jiang Xue pouted, "I'm not afraid of fighting because you're there; I know you'll protect me. But at school, it's different. The atmosphere here makes me feel uneasy."
Zhang Qiu hugged Jiang Xue and reassured her, "I'll protect you at school too."
"What's going on? We're still at school," Jiang Xue hurriedly pushed Zhang Qiu away, chuckling as she pulled him to walk faster.
Zhang Qiu asked, "You don't believe me? I can't guarantee anything about others, but our grade's Director Zhao will definitely take care of us."
Jiang Xue looked at Zhang Qiu, who didn't seem to be joking. Director Zhao had indeed been very nice just now. Could there be some hidden truth behind this? Curious, Jiang Xue asked, "Why are you so confident?"
Zhang Qiu smiled proudly, "I have a secret about Director Zhao."
"Secret!" Jiang Xue became interested. "What secret?"
Zhang Qiu glanced around and whispered, "Come closer."
Jiang Xue leaned in, and Zhang Qiu quickly kissed her lightly before running away. Jiang Xue's face turned red as she shouted, "Pervert!" and chased after Zhang Qiu, the two of them causing a commotion all the way to the security office.
Zhang Qiu's arrival caused a stir in the security office. Although his identity as Security Chief wasn't too clear, the implications were obvious: this person couldn't be offended. The Red-Faced Guard felt even more nervous upon seeing Zhang Qiu approach; he had just calmed down but now his legs started to tremble again.
"This is a leave request; we need to go out for a bit," Zhang Qiu sincerely handed over the leave slip. He only disliked the Red-Faced Guard; the other security personnel had done nothing wrong. On the contrary, the school's security was commendable due to their hard work.
"Please register," the Gray-Haired Guard said as he took the registration book.
Zhang Qiu signed both his and Jiang Xue's names on it, thanked him, and left with Jiang Xue. As soon as they stepped out of the school gate, he took Jiang Xue's hand. The guards in the security office turned back as if they hadn't seen anything, except for the Gray-Haired Guard who pondered aloud, "This kid will achieve great things in the future."
Riding on an electric vehicle home, Jiang Xue hugged Zhang Qiu from behind and asked, "Is what you said about knowing Director Zhao's secret true or just teasing me?"
"Of course it's true."
"What is that secret?" Jiang Xue's curiosity was completely piqued by Zhang Qiu.
Zhang Qiu stopped by the roadside, grinning, "Kiss me once, and I'll tell you."
Jiang Xue playfully pinched Zhang Qiu's waist. Just as Zhang Qiu let out a squeal, she leaned in and gently kissed his cheek, laughing, "Can you tell me now?"
"Sure." A kiss would suffice; even a pinch would do. Zhang Qiu chuckled as he pulled out his phone from his pocket and brought up the video saved on it for Jiang Xue to see. "Here, this video is the secret. But are you sure you want to watch it?"
"Of course!" Jiang Xue nodded eagerly. Zhang Qiu handed her the phone, and she leaned against his back to watch the video while he continued riding home. Within just a few seconds, Jiang Xue's face turned red, and she poked Zhang Qiu with her fingertip, asking, "Why is it this?"
Zhang Qiu smiled helplessly, "That's the secret."
"Director Zhao... I can't believe it! Director Zhao is actually this kind of person!" Jiang Xue said, both angry and embarrassed as she clutched Zhang Qiu's shirt. Images of Director Zhao's stern demeanor flashed through her mind. Especially during the flag-raising ceremony every Monday when he spoke in a sharply tailored suit with meticulously combed hair, preaching patriotism, lawfulness, and academic excellence. Yet behind the scenes, he was involved in such sordid activities.
"How shameless!" Jiang Xue exclaimed angrily.
Zhang Qiu chuckled and replied, "Men—especially those with a bit of power—aren't they all like this? Wang Guodong fell into a similar situation with his mistress."
As Zhang Qiu spoke, he suddenly sensed a sharp glare behind him and heard a cold voice say, "What about you? Would you be like that too?"
"Of course not; I have no power."
Jiang Xue asked again, "What if you had power?"
"I still wouldn't be like that."
"What about Wang Jinghan?"
"......"
"Hehe." Jiang Xue tightened her embrace around Zhang Qiu, "I believe in you."
Zhang Qiu firmly held the hand pressed against his abdomen, one hand on the handlebars. Fortunately, the traffic was light enough to manage.
"Hey, what's this?" Jiang Xue suddenly murmured.
"From Chen Kun, so many titles, what is this?" Jiang Xue read aloud to herself. Zhang Qiu's heart sank; this was awkward. The files were all copied from Chen Kun's computer, and since they were taken from there, Zhang Qiu had casually named them "From Chen Kun 1..."
"In the future, with me around, you won't need to watch these anymore, okay?" Jiang Xue said softly, her hands gently tracing the contours of Zhang Qiu's abs.
"Okay, I promise you."
Jiang Xue smiled sweetly and hugged Zhang Qiu even tighter.
