The Bumpy Road of Marriage: Divorce Now, Daddy

“Close relationship with the new dean?” Nalan Chunbo had an unreadable smile on his face.

Wen Shan’s face flushed but she was unwilling to surrender in front of Nalan Chunbo. “So what if we’re close? I said I wanted to marry a dean, of course I need to have a close relationship with him. What does that have to do with you?” Wen Shan demanded and pushed Nalan Chunbo aside to go down the stairs.

Nalan Chunbo turned and watched her run off. His smile was getting wider.

He had no objection to her wanting to marry a dean. No objection at all.

But now was not the time to go and look for her. Nalan Chunbo pushed the office door open and went in. Since Old Man Yin arrived, Professor Yin was quickly trying to make him comfortable.

“Dad, why are you here?” Professor Yin asked charmingly. He did not expect the old man to whack him with his walking stick. Professor Yin yelped in pain and hid behind his desk. “Dad, what’s up with you?”

“Did I allow you to come to school so that you can commit crimes?” The old man snarled angrily and kept hitting him with his walking stick.

Nalan Chunbo calmly watched them. When he picked the old man up this morning, he had given the old man the thesis to look at. The old man was quite pedantic with an eye for detail, so he could clearly tell with just one look that it was plagiarised.

The old man probably did not expect that his reputation had been ruined by his incompetent son who was corrupted to the core. Especially after Nalan Chunbo had more or less told him of Professor Yin’s blackmailing of students in the school.

Coincidentally, the old man had caught him red-handed.

It was like the old saying: If one who always walks by the river, his shoes will never be dry.

For Professor Yin, who was in his fifties but howling while being hit by his own father, it was quite embarrassing.

Nalan Chunbo was subtly laughing while watching. When he threatened Wen Shan, he should have known that sooner or later karma would come for him. Even if people cared about their family background, he was an outsider and could not care less.

When the old man had whacked his son enough, he held his walking stick and hissed, “You had better quickly pack your things, resign, and leave. Or are you waiting for the school to fire you?”

“Dad, don’t simply listen to what others are telling you! What have I done that you want me to leave?” Professor Yin cried loudly.

“Why are you not leaving? Are you waiting for the police to come and catch you? Do you not know what you have done? If not for Nalan Chunbo, I wouldn’t have known that you’ve been oppressing people,” the old man angrily shouted and slammed the floor with his walking stick. “Plagiarizing papers, threatening students, misusing your power for personal gain. Yin, how dare you? You have embarrassed your family name!”

“Master Yin, please do not be angry,” Nalan Chunbo finally said and helped the old man sit down. Ignoring Professor Yin who was glaring at him, he calmly said, “You are the founder of this school, so everyone is afraid to bother you. I guess I’m just an outsider who does not know the rules, and rudely bothered you.”

“Dean Nalan, please do not say that. I will look for those people one by one later, but I need to settle this unfilial scoundrel first. If you have any important matters to attend to, please go ahead.” When the old man spoke to Nalan Chunbo, he was a lot calmer.

Nalan Chunbo nodded slightly, then looked at Professor Yin. “Professor Yin, I forgot to tell you. Wen Shan’s graduation slip has been assigned to Gu Juexi’s new movie, so you have no right to report anything on her slip.”
