Rebirth: A Super Foodie and Her Cat Demon Husband

After Cui Xue left, Xiang Zhiqiang instantly collapsed on the sofa.

He rubbed his face hard, then stood up and slammed the door that Cui Xue had left open.

Looking at the phone in his hand, he hesitated for a long time before making another call.

The three little mice were in a dilemma. After discussing for a long time, they drew lots and decided that the third mouse would follow Cui Xue.

The first and second rats continued to stay here and stare at Xiang Zhiqiang.

The call was quickly connected, and Xiang Zhiqiang was heard saying to the other end of the phone: "Hello, is this Lao Xu? This is Xiang Zhiqiang."

"Yes, that's right. Can you tell me what's going on?"

In order to hear the voice on the phone clearly, the two little mice tried their best to get closer and climbed onto the back of the sofa where Xiang Zhiqiang was sitting.

They heard someone say on the phone: "Lao Xiang, I advise you to be careful. I don't know what Cui Xue is planning. But she definitely doesn't want to help you climb up the ladder. I won't say much about other things, I'll just tell you what happened."

Then the man called Lao Xu came on the phone and told the details of the conflict between Xiang Yushan and Liu Liuyuanyuan, even mentioning the theft of books and other things.

Hearing this, Liu Yuanyuan was instantly confused. This Old Xu was probably the head of their department, but how did he know so much about the conflict between her and Xiang Yushan?

He even knew everything about Wang Mengmeng. This realization made Liu Yuanyuan angry again.

Since the head teacher knew so much yet still protected Xiang Yushan, it seemed like it was really because of her father. And judging from their conversation, they did have a very good relationship. The head teacher was really good at smoothing things over.

Liu Yuanyuan continued to listen to the three little mice in a bad mood.

Xiang Zhiqiang's expression became even uglier when he heard what Old Xu said.

He said in a somewhat dry voice, "Old, Old Xu, you, you must be kidding. Shanshan has always been a very obedient child. How could she do something like this?"

Old Xu on the other end of the phone sighed deeply, "I can't believe it either. When Yangyang first told me about it, I thought he and Shanshan had some conflict again. Then the Wen Bureau came to see me."

Your Cui Xue was so patient that she threatened the Wen Ju. Of course, it's not your Cui Xue's fault, after all, she didn't know the Wen Ju's identity. But the Wen Ju witnessed what your Shan Shan did.

The evidence of your Shanshan stealing was found by the Wen Bureau. The Wen Bureau also witnessed your Shanshan hitting the child in the face. He said the child's face was bruised for at least a week. It was swollen like a pig's head. He felt terrible just watching it.

All these messes happened because Director Wen brought his dog to search your Shanshan's things, which is why your Shanshan holds a grudge against her. That's why your Cui Xue is so upset with her.

I always thought your Shanshan was a good kid, but I never thought she'd become like this after entering high school. She looks old. You have to know that it was the Cultural Bureau who helped you get Shanshan to come to No. 2 Middle School.

Otherwise, with her grades, she wouldn't have been able to get into No. 2 Middle School. I knew at the time that you were planning to go to the private part of Yucheng and have her attend there. But I don't know why you ended up going to No. 2 Middle School. But the terms Cui Xue negotiated with Old Sun were definitely not in your favor.

Xiang Zhiqiang suddenly felt that he had difficulty breathing. He took two deep breaths, then gritted his teeth and said to Lao Xu, "Lao Xu, thank you in advance. Director Sun mentioned this to me, but he didn't tell me what it was specifically about. Can you tell me a little bit?"

Old Xu on the other end of the line was silent for a moment, then sighed and said, "Lao Xiang, we were classmates and from the same hometown back then. I once advised you to work steadily, one step at a time, and start from the grassroots. But you insisted on getting entangled with Cui Xue. Do you regret it now?"

Old Xu's question made Xiang Zhiqiang silent instantly. He had no choice in this matter.

But Old Xu didn't wait for his answer. Instead, he continued, "They didn't shy away from me during the discussion. I guess Old Sun thought that if there were any problems later, he could use me to clear himself. After all, he was speaking out for the sake of the school."

Xiang Zhiqiang took another deep breath and said, "Okay, Old Xu, stop keeping me in suspense. I'm feeling really bad right now."

"Alas, Lao Cao also wants to climb the ladder, and this time he's interested in the position you're aiming for. You know, the position you want to take will be recommended not only by your bureau, but also by the presidents and vice presidents of various campuses, so you're under a lot of competition.

Cui Xue and Lao Cao had agreed to help Lao Cao obtain approval from her father for the expansion of the No. 2 Middle School Arts and Sports Building. This would count as Lao Cao's political achievement. However, Cui Xue insisted that his brother's company also bid. Furthermore, when the recommendation was made to the leadership, she would ask her father to support him.

"Old Prime Minister, what have you been trying to achieve all these years? If Lao Cao gets this project, his political achievements are undoubtedly undeniable. If Director Cui approves it personally, everyone will have to think carefully before voting."

Hearing this, Xiang Zhiqiang shouted in disbelief: "What did you say?"

Old Xu sighed again and did not answer Xiang Zhiqiang's subconscious question. Instead, he changed the subject and continued, "Old Xiang. After so many years, have you ever thought about why you have been standing still in this position?

I can't believe such a large Education Bureau doesn't have any chances for promotion. After all, Director Cui is already the director. And he also has a representative position. Even if he can't find a job for you within the bureau, it's not impossible for him to find you a job in other departments."

After Old Xu finished speaking, both of them fell silent. Finally, Xiang Zhiqiang spoke with some difficulty, "Old Xu, thank you for this. I will find a chance to take Cui Xue and Shan Shan to apologize to the girl, and I will also go to the school to have a good talk with Old Cao. I'm sorry to bother you with this matter."

"Okay, then you take care of yourself. You'd better come as soon as possible. The little girl is still at home reflecting on her mistakes. If you miss too many classes, it will be bad for her."

Xiang Zhiqiang's eyes were red and he gritted his teeth, but he tried hard to suppress his emotions and said calmly, "Okay, I know."

Xiang Zhiqiang hung up the phone, looked at the phone in his hand with bloodshot eyes, suddenly raised his arm and threw the phone hard against the wall.

After Cui Xue left home, she drove her car back to her parents' home.
