Chapter 842: Playing with Fire (Part 3)

s chest was grievously wounded! It looked like he'd fallen from some great height, at least three ribs were broken! Furthermore, there was a clear penetrating wound under his left shoulder. Clearly c..."Xiang Ting, trust me, I can take care of you!" Ye Fan reached out and gently wiped the tears from her face.

But she was pushed away by Li Xiangting. Li Xiangting stubbornly said, "I don't need you to worry about me. I can take care of myself. Besides, you're still my student. If we're talking about taking care of someone, it should be me taking care of you!"

Ye Fan was a little speechless. How come all the girls nowadays were so proud In Li Xiangting, he seemed to see the shadow of Murong Xue, thinking of that beautiful girl who was also unwilling to lower her noble head easily. Yet, she had given him her whole heart, while he could only choose to leave silently...

Ye Fan's heart was a little unsettled for a moment.

Ye Fan had no choice but to change the subject. "By the way, Xiang Ting, how come the school suddenly changed principals And what's with all the personnel transfers Putting a teaching teacher in charge of filing This makes no sense at all!"

"Hey, please call me Teacher Li!" Li Xiangting said to Ye Fan with a coquettish tone.

"Oh, it's Teacher Li... But, Xiang Ting is more approachable. Anyway, you'll fall in love with me sooner or later..."

Li Xiangting : “......”

Ye Fan learned from Li Xiangting's conversation that the former principal of Linhai University had been doing a very good job. For decades, he had always kept to his duties and worked diligently in his position. He was originally just waiting to retire and enjoy his old age.

But for some reason, ever since the term change in Kyoto ended, not only did all members of each faction at Linhai move positions, but even the departments changed their primary responsible persons. And as for the president of Linhai University, due to organizational requirements, a capable, thoughtful, and experienced person was sent to manage it again, which is this Du Zilin.

It is said that he has a very close relationship with the current authorities in Linhai City. It was this person in power who ensured his admission to Linhai University, bypassing the Ministry of Education's process. The Ministry of Education only received the news after Du Zilong had already arrived at Linhai University. This goes against procedure, but since those above had spoken and a formal document was issued, the Ministry of Education had no choice but to accept it.

After arriving at Linhai University, Du Zilong's first act was to initiate personnel changes. Among these changes, Li Xiangting was transferred to the archives department. The positions of other relevant personnel were not significantly altered.

When Ye Fan heard this, his brow furrowed. Could Du Zilin be specifically targeting Li Xiangting Was his goal to get her kicked out

Is this Du Zilong's own meaning or that of the person behind him Could it be related to Li Shujing Ye Fan felt it was necessary to investigate further, and coincidentally, he could use Du Zilong as a lead.

Apart from the change in headmaster, there's another noteworthy thing happening at the school. The position of head of teaching department has also seen a shift. Originally, Wang Qin, who was the head of teaching department, had been promoted to vice principal. However, ever since Du Zilin arrived, Wang Qin has returned to her role as head of the teaching department. Although she still holds the title of vice principal, she primarily manages the affairs of the teaching department and there hasn't been any real change in her responsibilities.

This left her feeling perplexed. Generally, once a promotion was confirmed, it wouldn't be revoked unless there was a serious mistake. However, Wang Qin was different; before she even had the chance to exercise her authority as vice principal, it was taken away from her. As a result, after all that preparation, she remained in her previous position as Head of the Teaching Department.

She had once gone to talk to the principal, but the principal brushed her off with a, “This is a decision made by the school committee,” and sent her away. In reality, everyone knew that this was Principal Du deliberately targeting Wang Qin. Or perhaps, in this school, Principal Du wanted to cultivate people who belonged to him. He wanted absolute control over the school. However, no one dared to speak up, because everyone knew that Principal Du had someone backing him!

As Li Xiangting spoke, her anger grew. She became increasingly agitated, shaking her small fist as if Du Zilong were right in front of her. She wished she could punch that old bald man to death.

"So, this Du Zilong wasn't elected through normal procedures"

"That's definitely not the case! He must have bribed everyone above and below to get to where he is. Otherwise, with his kind of character, there's no way he could have reached this position!" Thinking about that bald bastard's ugly face, Li Xiangting couldn't help but feel a surge of anger again.

"Who is the current Party Secretary of Linhai City" Ye Fan asked.

"His name is Wang Qiuyang. He seems to be from Beijing." Li Xiangting was quite familiar with this person who had taken over her father's position.

From Beijing Looks like you're quite important, Ye Fan seemed to have figured something out.

Then he suddenly asked, "What about Luo Chao, the deputy commander Wasn't he the most likely to succeed your father before What happened to him now"

“Him” Li Xiangting said resentfully, “Mayor Luo seems to be constantly being targeted by Secretary Wang because of their political disagreements. Now I hear that Mayor Luo hasn’t left his house for a long time and is essentially under house arrest, with no freedom.”

Ye Fan was astonished. As a deputy mayor, how could someone restrict his movements

"Why is this happening How could Mayor Luo, such an honest man, be imprisoned"

Li Xiangting shook her head and said, “I don't know the specifics. I heard that the city’s Commission for Discipline Inspection received a public report, so they formed a temporary investigation team to look into his criminal evidence, but it seems like there has been no progress.”

"Is it right to restrict someone's personal freedom without any progress in the investigation Do they intend to wait until they find evidence of Mayor Luo's crimes before releasing him" Ye Fan sneered repeatedly.

"I don't know about that. They've always been very discreet."

"I'm afraid that was when Wang Qiuyang took advantage of Mayor Luo being inspected and came to Linhai to become the secretary, wasn't it" Ye Fan already had a clear outline in his mind. Wang Qiuyang and Du Zilong could be drawn as a line, and Wang Qiuyang and the Yan family Probably also a line

If that were really the case, then it seemed like both Wang Qiuyang targeting Lu Chao and Du Zilin going after Li Xianting were aimed at himself. In other words, he had implicated them, though they didn't know it yet.

Ye Fan suddenly felt a surge of anger in his heart. How dare anyone lay their hands on the people around him Unforgivable!

Ye Fan's eyes flashed with a killing intent. Wang Qiuyang, he must be eliminated. As for Du Zilong, he could just use him to test Wang Qiuyang's influence in Linhai...

After hearing Ye Fan's question, Li Xiangting replied: "I don't know about that. Before, our Li family and the Luo family were considered good friends. After something happened to the Luo family, I contacted some old acquaintances, but they all kept their distance from me. I couldn't get any information from them at all. Some kindhearted ones even advised me not to get involved and told me to leave Linhai as soon as possible to avoid getting burned."asn't a member of the Ye family Since that's the case, what does the family rule have to do with me And whether or not I am a member of the Ye family is none of your business, you scum!" Suddenly, Ye...
