Chapter 109: Guilty

Originally, Liu Qingyi was worried about missing the time, so she wanted to call Tang Yating directly, but since the public college has not yet finished class, she is also worried that it will affect the latter. And when she came to the public college and saw that Tang Yating had not finished class, she chose to go to the administrative building of the college first. Because the principal's office was in that building, Liu Qingyi felt that since she was here, she should go to meet her father by the way.

The administrative building of St. Feyton College is adjacent to the teaching office building, although on the surface it seems that the two buildings are separated, but in fact the interior is connected, from the office building to the top of the administrative building, you can also reach the top of the administrative building, and at this moment in the largest office on the top floor, as the president, Liu Cen is doing the final detailed review of the business school's tomorrow activity report, after all, the business school, as the largest and most proud college of the school, is naturally very important in the eyes of Liu Cen. The business school only has a large-scale practical activity once a year.

"Jingle bellโ€”"

A crisp doorbell rang, Liu Cen put the teacup in his hand on the desk, raised his head and said with the majesty that has always been unique to the principal: "The door is not closed, come in." โ€

"Brother-in-law, I haven't seen you for a few years, but your aura has not diminished at all, and you deserve to be the principal of Santa Feyton." A voice that made Liu Cen a little surprised suddenly came from after the sound of pushing the door, and immediately a rather tall figure stood in front of Liu Cen, it was Murong Lei, who came to the door because of Chang Qing.

"Is that you?" Liu Cen slowly raised his head, and after seeing the face of the person standing in front of him, his brows furrowed slightly, as if he was thinking about something, and then his eyes suddenly opened, and his tone finally brought a trace of surprise and inexplicable solemnity, "I remember, haven't you been training at the Songhai National Gymnasium, how did you suddenly return to Santa Fe?" โ€

"Heh, you're really a lonely headmaster, I've been a trainee physical education teacher in your school for almost two weeks, and you don't even know it?" Murong Lei couldn't help but smile when she heard this, and then asked back with some mockery.

"The faculty work arrangement of the college has always been handled by the school director and the vice principal, and my responsibility is not on this basis." Liu Cen's face gradually returned to calm, and then his tone changed slightly, "You came to me, there should be something, right?" โ€

Seeing that Liu Cen didn't explain more, Murong Lei originally wanted to take revenge on him, but she could only secretly suppress it, after all, because of her sister's death, her attitude towards her brother-in-law in front of her was not very good. Murong Lei pursed her lips lightly, and then stopped talking nonsense, and directly stated how Chang Qing physically punished Tang Yating, and then looked at Liu Cen's reaction to this matter.

However, it was expected that Liu Cen would at least be angry because of this, but it did not appear, when Murong Lei saw that she had been talking for a long time, and Liu Cen sitting in front of her still had that breezy look, her original patience was completely exhausted, and she was replaced by dissatisfaction and doubt: "Hey brother-in-law, you should give a reaction, the teacher blatantly punished the students, isn't this a clear violation of the school rules of Santa Feyton?" Why don't you say anything? โ€

"And what do you want me to say?" The corners of Liu Cen's lips rose slightly, picked up the teacup on the table again, brought it to his lips and sipped it gently, and then asked back with a smile.

"What kind of attitude do you have, shouldn't you, as the principal, punish those who violate the school rules? I know that Chang Qing is the backbone teacher of the school's youth level, but this can't be a reason for him to physically punish students, right? Murong Lei propped her hands on Liu Cen's desk, staring at the latter's face slightly blue.

"You calm down first, I will ask him to verify what you said about Evergreen corporal punishment of students. But I'm curious, which student can get you to take such care of her? Liu Cen has a special view of Changqing in his heart, although it is because of his appreciation of his talent, but more because of other reasons. Therefore, he didn't want to constrain Changqing too much to abide by the school rules set by their directors, so after a little muttering, he deliberately changed the topic.

"That's not something you need to do. In short, I've said everything I need to say, and it's your business to do what to do, and I'm just a substitute teacher, and I can't influence your decision. I'm leaving! Murong Lei really couldn't stand Liu Cen's indifferent expression, so she wanted to turn around and leave after saying this, but at this moment, the doorbell of the closed office door suddenly rang again.

"I'll go open the door, just leave directly." Murong Lei glanced back at Liu Cen, and then her tone paused slightly.

Quickly walked to the office door and opened it, Murong Lei, who was still dissatisfied on her face, suddenly brightened her eyes when she saw a pink shadow standing in front of her at the moment, and then suddenly showed her face, and then rushed to ask someone with a little joy: "Qing'er?" Why are you here too, are you out of school? โ€

"Huh?" When he heard Murong Lei's words, Liu Cen's expression on the seat finally changed slightly, could it be that his daughter Liu Qingyi was here? However, even if she usually comes to the public college, she usually doesn't take the initiative to come to the office to find herself, right? Then it was so coincidental that he suddenly came to see him after Murong Lei today, could it be said that it was also for the same thing?

"Huh? Auntie, you're here too! That pink shadow was naturally Liu Qingyi, who came to see her father by the way, and when she saw Murong Lei standing in front of her as soon as the door opened, there was also a touch of surprise on her face, "Of course I'm here to see my father." What about you? โ€

Liu Qingyi walked into the office while asking, his eyes swept over his father Liu Cen's face, Dai Mei pursed her lips slightly, and then turned her head to look at Murong Lei: "What's the matter, you and your father quarreled?" โ€

"Who would dare to quarrel with him? Qing'er, you can ask him yourself, I'll leave first if I still have something to do. Well, I'll make an appointment with you on the weekend, let's go to Central Park for fitness together. The corners of Murong Lei's mouth lifted a rather sly smile, and then waved at Liu Qingyi, and walked out quickly behind the door.

"Eh, auntie-" Liu Qingyi shouted at her back with some confusion, but Murong Lei had already walked away, so she could only turn around and look at Liu Cen with a slight expression, "Dad, auntie, she came to you, what is the matter?" โ€

"You don't know? You came to me, aren't you also here to ......" Liu Cen stared at Liu Qingyi in some surprise, but at this point, it was still sudden, if Qingyi didn't know about it, then it was naturally better for him not to mention it.

"What, I just came to the public college to look for someone, and then I saw that I haven't finished class yet, so I just came to see your work by the way." Liu Qingyi walked to a sofa by the windowsill in the office and sat down, then stretched slightly, and his tone carried a touch of concern for his father.

"Oh, okay, sit down then. Dad does have a job, just don't bother me. Liu Cen naturally heard the hidden feelings in Liu Qingyi's tone, and immediately smiled, then lowered his head and continued to look at the report sheet and practical activity planning on the desk.

When Liu Cen looked at the documents on the table, he still habitually wanted to pick up the teacup beside him. However, when he stretched out his hand, he did not touch it in its place. Liu Cen immediately raised his head, but saw Liu Qingyi holding his teacup back in front of him, and the teacup was obviously steaming: "Oh, I took you a cup of hot water again." The original cup is cold, so don't drink it. Tea like Takayama Longjing is not good for your health if you drink it too cold. โ€

"I know, you, you are just as nagging as your mother in this kind of trivial matter......" Liu Cen replied with a smile a little unconsciously, but when Liu Qingyi's mother was mentioned, his face, which was still smiling, suddenly eased, and then lowered his head and took a sip of tea, no longer speaking.

"What, does mentioning Mom make you feel guilty again? Dad, since you feel sorry for Mom, why do you want to marry that...... Why did you marry another woman not long after your mother died? After three years, Liu Qingyi's original attachment in his heart has finally been reduced a lot, his wife unfortunately died early, he can understand his father's loneliness emotionally, but he doesn't need to be so anxious to remarry, right? But what made Liu Qingyi unwilling to accept Jiang Hongxia the most was that she always felt that her father loved this woman more deeply than her mother.

"Didn't Dad say that those things are in the past. Actually, isn't it nice to be like this now? You and Yunxiao are in love, and you and Aunt Hongxia are also truly in love. I admit that it was Dad's fault to prevent you from being with Nalan Yunxiao before, so you should also understand this feeling. Our family can live together in harmony, which is the most important thing, whether there is a blood relationship or not, in fact, it is not so important. Liu Cen sighed lightly, and then explained with a slightly solemn expression.

"Forget it, every time you use these words to prevaricate me, I'm tired of hearing them. Dad, I just want to ask you, you answer me honestly, did you already know your mother before she died? Liu Qingyi also took a deep breath as she said this, preparing for the worst answer in her heart. She knew that if her father really answered yes, wouldn't it mean that Jiang Hongxia had actually become a third party who destroyed her family?

"Yes." Liu Cen frowned slightly, and responded lightly, and when Liu Qingyi was about to say something, he took the lead in blocking the latter's words, "I know what you want to say, but things are not what you think." The reason for this is that it is too deep to tell you now. You'll figure it out later. โ€
