Chapter 16: If the Top Beam is Not Straight, the Bottom Beam Will Be Crooked
Hou Shilin and two others were summoned to the Student Affairs Office, and they were unaware of the situation.
As there had been many issues with the Hou Family lately, Hou Shilin's visit to look for Su Yang was rather rushed and unplanned. Moreover, not knowing Su Yang's personality, he did not dare to come unannounced and could only make this low-key visit, hoping to make a good impression.
To their surprise, no sooner had they inquired about Su Yang at the school than they were led to the Student Affairs Office. The three of them were puzzled but did not say much. After all, this was Su Yang's school, and they did not want to leave a bad impression on him!
After waiting for over ten minutes, Hou Shilin's uncle, Zhang Gaojian, couldn't bear it any longer and said, "What is this nonsense? What are we waiting for here? It's been so long; not to mention tea, there isn't even a chair. What are they doing?"
Hou Shilin was also quite annoyed, but thinking of Su Yang's tactics, he steadied his emotions.
"Uncle, don't worry, let's just be patient a little longer," Hou Shilin consoled.
"How do these school people even do their jobs!" Zhang Gaojian grumbled under his breath, his impression of the school plummeting.
Half an hour later, a deliberately fake cough came from the door, and Liu Xingchao swaggered in. He paid no attention to the three people inside, walked straight to the table, sat down, picked up the newspaper, crossed his legs, and began reading as though the three were invisible.
Zhang Gaojian flew into a rage, but fortunately, Hou Shilin knew his temper and hurriedly addressed the man before others could, "Friend, may I ask where Su Yang is right now?"
Only then did Liu Xingchao raise his head to glance at Hou Shilin and said, "What's your relationship with Su Yang?"
"I'm his friend," Hou Shilin replied with a low chuckle.
