77: Chapter 77: Inquiring 77: Chapter 77: Inquiring Ye Qiu knew that with Li Qianqian calling her father, the expulsion issue would be easily resolved. “Soon.” Ye Qiu said. When he rode his bike to Liu Lingxiu’s house, her parents were still very warm towards Ye Qiu, despite knowing he had been expelled from Jiangbei No. 3 Middle School. The couple’s attitude towards Ye Qiu had not changed. When Zhang Yuehong called Ye Qiu and Liu Lingxiu to wash their hands and eat, Liu looked at her mother and said: “Mom, the school will soon revoke Ye Qiu’s expulsion notice.” Actually, Liu Lingxiu didn’t know when exactly, but she wanted to reassure her parents. After Ye Qiu and Liu Lingxiu finished lunch with her family, her parents went back to the factory to work, and Liu Lingxiu prepared to go to her room to rest. As Liu pulled Ye Qiu into the room, she said: “Ye Qiu, take a nap with me.” “You sleep. I’ll read here.” Liu Lingxiu lay alone on the bed, quietly watching Ye Qiu. At around one in the afternoon, the alarm clock rang. Liu Lingxiu got up to wash, then left for school with Ye Qiu. As Liu Lingxiu sat on Ye Qiu’s bike, he asked: “What do your parents do at the factory?” “My dad works in the quality control department, my mom in the production department. They often work overtime, but they don’t eat at the factory during mealtimes.” It was clear that Liu Lingxiu’s parents worked very hard. However, Ye Qiu felt that Liu Lingxiu’s parents were better off compared to his own parents and sister. When he rode his bike to the school gate and went inside with Liu Lingxiu, she went to the classroom alone. Ye Qiu headed back out of the school. In the morning, Li Qianqian called her father, Li Zhiguo. Zhiguo then called his secretary, Xiao Zhang, who called Deputy Mayor Liao’s secretary, Xiao Li. After discovering that this matter was connected to Deputy Mayor Li, and receiving confirmation from Deputy Mayor Liao, Secretary Li personally drove to the education bureau of that district in Jiangbei. The staff at the district education bureau knew that Secretary Li was Deputy Mayor Liao’s secretary. Since he was here, he was either inspecting on behalf of Deputy Mayor Liao or conveying a message from above. But Secretary Li did not look happy. When the relevant leaders of the district education bureau came to greet him, Secretary Li maintained an unhappy expression. Upon entering the meeting room, he immediately said: “Relevant personnel, have a meeting now.” Quickly, all the main district leaders came to the meeting room for a meeting. At the meeting, Secretary Li directly pointed out some leaders’ inaction and others’ misuse of power to interfere with the normal work of the school, among other points. What Secretary Li said left everyone mystified; they couldn’t figure out what he was talking about. However, when Secretary Li mentioned the incident in which Ye Qiu, a student from Jiangbei No. 3 Middle School, was beaten by classmates but was instead expelled, many district education leaders seemed to realize something. “Secretary Li, who is this Ye Qiu?” “Who? He’s a student at Jiangbei No. 3 Middle School, but he’s also someone who saved Deputy Mayor Li’s daughter. Now you tell me, who is he?” “Now, Secretary Zhang of Mayor Li and Mayor Liao sent me here to investigate this matter. This issue involves you, so explain it clearly.” Secretary Li said calmly. At this point, it was clear to everyone that a higher authority was looking into this seriously. Though it seemed simple, a misstep could cost them their jobs. Quite a few people, even many in the district government, had called the school, pressuring Jiangbei No. 3 Middle School until the school leaders had no choice but to expel Ye Qiu. Indeed, rank often crushes people. This was no exception. “Secretary Li, rest assured, we will investigate this matter immediately and clear student Ye Qiu’s name.” “Resolve it quickly, or I will handle it myself.” Secretary Li said. As the district education bureau leaders invited Secretary Li to another office for tea, the other relevant leaders stayed to continue the meeting. They didn’t know the full details, only that Zhang Dongliang’s son had been bullied by Ye Qiu, even forced to eat feces. These leaders assumed Ye Qiu had bullied Zhang’s son, so naturally, such a student should be expelled. Now, it seemed the matter wasn’t so simple. “Old Liu, call the principal of No. 3 Middle School and find out what happened?” Said the district education bureau director. Old Liu, the deputy director, picked up the landline, put it on speaker, and called the school’s principal’s office. Soon, the principal answered. “Principal Zhou, tell us what’s going on with Ye Qiu?” “Director Liu, Ye Qiu has been severely reprimanded and expelled.” “That’s not what I asked. What’s the story behind his fight with Zhang Wei?” The deputy director Liu asked.

He didn’t want to hear from Zhang Dongliang, knowing Zhang likely wouldn’t tell the truth. “The full story? You already know, right?” “Explain in detail.” The deputy director Liu said. “According to the investigation by the political education office, here’s what happened: Ye Qiu was called to the boys’ bathroom by Zhang Wei and four other classmates. Zhang Wei and those four wanted to teach Ye Qiu a lesson, but they were the ones taught a lesson by Ye Qiu. You know the rest.” It was clear that Zhang Wei and the other four students were the ones at fault initially.
