How could Qiao Nian manage to get into Class A?
"Get it wrong?" Cai Gang didn't hear him clearly.
Qiao Weimin snapped out of his daze and looked at Cai Gang's curious expression. He swallowed the thought "Qiao Chen only managed to get into Class B, how could Qiao Nian possibly get into Class A?" instead of voicing it. He then quietly said, "N-Nothing much."
He remembered what he was here for today. After some struggle, he finally said, "So, Officer Cai, regarding Qiao Nian's fight..."
Cai Gang immediately continued, "Oh, about that."
He had received five calls on the way here—from his direct superior to Jiang Zongnan, to Cheng Feng Corporation, to the Wei family, and even someone from Beijing...
Every one of them was superior to him, and he was so stressed out by the calls that he didn't even manage to finish his meal. He rushed here right away.
Qiao Weimin seemed rather embarrassed, and he turned to glare at Qiao Nian as if blaming her for causing trouble. He then smiled awkwardly at Cai Gang and said, "This child can hardly be disciplined since she was a child, unlike her younger sister. She'd just found her biological parents a few days ago and went to live with them. I only found out about the trouble she caused now.
"Although she's no longer under my care, she's lived with us, after all. I don't wish to see her get into trouble outside. What I'm trying to say is that we can compensate these people whatever amount they're asking for, as long as this situation can be settled..."
He caught a flicker of elitism and arrogance in the corner of his eyes. He didn't even bother to ask if Qiao Nian was agreeable to it. It was as if he should decide it all on his own.
He made his relationship with Qiao Nian very clear, putting distance between the two of them but making himself sound like a nice man.
But he spoke fiercely to Qiao Nian when he turned to her. "Qiao Nian, you'd better apologize when you go down with me later!"
