"Without daddy, could you have gotten so many girlfriends?" the bald man snorted.
That was actually true.
If it weren't for Ji Dali's father being a vice-principal, with his looks alone,
it's estimated that the only girls willing to be his girlfriend would be those who were blind.
A pair of beady eyes, filled with lecherousness.
Often not washing his hair, yellowish skin, and numerous pimples — just disgusting to look at.
But at least one thing was for certain.
That was Ji Dali was definitely his own flesh and blood, perfectly inheriting his daddy's inferior genes.
As the saying goes, if you're ugly, you should hit the books more.
This phrase fits Ji Jian so very well.
He, too, once lived in humiliation.
Mocked everywhere he went.
Because he was ugly, he worked hard.
Ultimately, he succeeded academically, earning a Master's degree, a PhD, and even a postdoctoral fellowship.
At 29, he became the head of the academic affairs department.
By 38, he was the vice-principal of Jiangdu's First High School.
It can be said that his rise was meteoric.
A man, once he has status, power, and money,
looks no longer matter.
No matter how ugly, there won't be a shortage of women.
Ji Jian got married when he was 30.
His spouse was also a teacher.
Average-looking, but more than enough to match Ji Jian.
After establishing a family, Ji Jian initially was conscientious, doing his job well.
That was until one day, when a new female intern teacher
proactively knocked on his office door.
In fact, this female intern teacher wasn't particularly good-looking.
Small eyes, slightly dark skin, which makeup could hardly conceal her mediocrity.
So, for her to climb up the ladder, it was especially tough.
It was as if a door had been opened for him.
The first time the female intern teacher came to him, it was for her official appointment.
The second time, it was for a professional title evaluation.
And then there was no third time.
Because Lv Jian's taste had already become picky.
He had already tasted the flavor of power.
And from then on, it was a slippery slope.
He no longer cared for those who threw themselves at him, selectively targeting the good-looking female teachers.
Through threats or enticements.
The success rate was nearly one hundred percent.
Gradually, Ji Jian's appetite grew larger.
He even started coveting female students.
Ji Jian didn't have much time to mingle with the students, but his son could.
Thus, father and son began to conspire nefarious plans.
Of course, they targeted the female students who were poor and without any influential backing or family support.
That way, even if something happened, they could easily clean it up.
As vice-principal, they could readily grasp those female students' family backgrounds.
And obviously, Chen Qian was just the type of powerless girl.
A single parent, her mother working as a housemaid.
Such impoverished students were easily manipulable by them.
At worst, they figured they could squander some money to settle it later.
Ji Dali had originally intended to pursue Chen Qian himself.
Unfortunately, after a great deal of effort, not only did he fail to win Chen Qian over, but he also caused her to feel disgusted.
She didn't even want to see his face.
No choice then, he had to pull his daddy into the picture.
Initially, Chen Qian had been consistently refusing, but unexpectedly, she agreed tonight.
Lanhe Hotel.
"Su Chen brother, then, shall I go up?" In front of the hotel, Chen Qian appeared a bit nervous.
"Don't worry, Xiao Qian, everything is under control with Brother Su Chen here," Su Chen said, taking out his phone.
If he was going to act, naturally he wanted to understand the situation of his opponent first.
Now that Reverse Dragon was dissolved, the intelligence network was gone too.
But he still had ways to gather information.
Chen Qian nodded, then entered the hotel.
Su Chen's call also went through.
"Sweet enemy, finally thought of your sister? Did you forget the promise you made to me?"
The owner of that voice was none other than Jiangdu City's...
Such a powerful woman, yet there she was, pettishly complaining that he had forgotten his promise to her.
This feeling, was simply too wonderful.
Moreover, speaking of which, Zhang Shu was the most impressive woman Su Chen had encountered since returning to the country.
Although in her thirties, she was incredibly attractive.
Not at all inferior to women in their twenties.
In fact, Su Chen could unabashedly say that being in the company of Zhang Shu felt very good.
"Uhh, sorry, Sister Zhang, I've been quite busy recently..." Su Chen said, a bit embarrassed.
"Uh-huh, I heard about your situation; you need to protect yourself," with Zhang Shu's means, she naturally knew about Su Chen's plane accident.
She asked softly, "Tell me, what's up now, little brother?"
"Do I have to be in need to seek out Sister Zhang?" From Zhang Shu's tone, Su Chen could hear that Zhang Shu genuinely cared about him.
"Giggle, I've got things to tend to as well, hanging up now," Zhang Shu said with a light laugh.
"Don't hang up... Sister Zhang, I, I need a favor."
"I knew you needed something. Spit it out, what is it?" Zhang Shu laughed again.
"It's like this, I want you to help me check some information on Jiangdu City's First High School's vice-principal," Su Chen said.
"What do you want Ji Jian's information for?" Zhang Shu was slightly taken aback.
"Sister Zhang, you know Ji Jian?" Su Chen was somewhat surprised.
He didn't expect that someone of Zhang Shu's status would know a high school vice-principal.
"How can I not hold a side job? Jiangdu's First High School is the finest in Jiangdu, if I don't even know who the principal is, how can I hold my position?" Zhang Shu laughed.
"Damn, Sister Zhang, you're too awesome," Su Chen couldn't help but exclaim.
He hadn't expected Zhang Shu to have this sort of status.
This was going to be easy!
Although, with Zhang Shu's status, dealing with a mere high school principal would be too easy.
But after all, it wasn't her place to meddle, and who knows, there might be complaints if she got involved.
But Zhang Shu as the head of the Education Bureau was different.
She was Ji Jian's direct superior.
She could do whatever she wanted to him!
What an unexpectedly pleasant surprise.
