Chapter 160: The Monk Can Run, But the Temple Cannot
Wang Zhengxiang stared at Zhang Qiu with a puzzled expression, wondering why he suddenly collapsed.
Zhang Qiu pointed towards the front of the classroom and whispered, "Just look for yourself."
Following Zhang Qiu's finger, Wang Zhengxiang saw the classroom door being opened, with several security guards in uniforms standing at the entrance. He immediately recognized the lead guard, Red-Faced Guard, and thought, Aren't they supposed to be at the main gate? What are they doing here? Connecting this with Zhang Qiu's reaction, Wang Zhengxiang exclaimed, "Brother Qiu, are they here for you?"
Zhang Qiu could only smile wryly and replied, "Yes."
"Brother Qiu, what trouble have you gotten into?" Wang Zhengxiang became anxious upon realizing it was related to Zhang Qiu.
While Zhang Qiu and Wang Zhengxiang were discussing the situation, the guards approached the Geography Teacher, saying, "Teacher, we are looking for two students."
The Geography Teacher nodded slightly but did not stop his lecture. He continued to point at the ocean current distribution map on the big screen and said, "Where is this? The Japanese Warm Current, right? Remember that this is one of the world's four major fishing grounds, the Hokkaido fishing ground. Does anyone know how it forms? Zhang Qiu, you go ahead."
The Geography Teacher deliberately called on Zhang Qiu, who had almost been late.
"Oh no, what a coincidence!" Zhang Qiu thought to himself as he slowly stood up from his seat. "The Japanese Warm Current meets the Kurile Cold Current to form..."
"That's him!" Red-Faced Guard pointed at Zhang Qiu and said to the Geography Teacher, "Teacher, this is the student we are looking for."
"Oh?" The Geography Teacher looked at Red-Faced Guard with confusion. Red-Faced Guard explained, "This student was caught holding hands with a girl at the school gate. When I confronted him, he not only refused to admit his mistake but even dared to run away!"
Red-Faced Guard was fuming as he scanned the classroom for the other person—the girl. He thought there was a good chance these two students were in the same class. Soon enough, he spotted Jiang Xue, who was looking worriedly at Zhang Qiu.
"You and you, come here," Red-Faced Guard said sternly while pointing at Zhang Qiu and Jiang Xue. He then turned to a man with a square face wearing a blue-gray striped shirt and said, "Section Chief, these are the two students."
The man referred to as Section Chief nodded seriously and looked intently at Zhang Qiu and Jiang Xue with his bright black eyes. Zhang Qiu stepped forward protectively in front of Jiang Xue and softly said, "Don't be afraid; I'm here."
Jiang Xue smiled gently and replied, "I'm not afraid with you here."
"You two, come out and talk." The Section Chief said this and stepped out of the classroom first.
"Make way." Zhang Qiu walked up to the Red-Faced Guard and shot him a fierce glare. The Red-Faced Guard instinctively stepped aside for Zhang Qiu. Zhang Qiu and Jiang Xue passed by one after the other, with the Red-Faced Guard following them out, looking displeased. An older guard slightly nodded at the Geography Teacher before leaving.
In the hallway, the guards formed a semicircle, surrounding the Security Chief in the middle. Zhang Qiu and Jiang Xue stood at the center; Jiang Xue looked a bit scared and hid behind Zhang Qiu, while Zhang Qiu calmly stared at the Security Chief. In the past, Zhang Qiu would have been afraid, but after going through so much, he felt indifferent to these situations.
The Security Chief glared at Zhang Qiu and Jiang Xue, shouting, "Do you two know what you did wrong?"
"What did I do wrong?" Zhang Qiu pretended to ponder deeply and asked the Security Chief, "Where did I go wrong?"
"You still dare to talk back!"
"I’m not." Zhang Qiu looked innocently at the Security Chief. Due to his agitation, two strands of hair that were neatly combed back fell down on his forehead.
The Red-Faced Guard punched Zhang Qiu in the chest, shouting, "Do you know who this is? This is our Security Chief! You better behave!"
"What are you doing!" Jiang Xue screamed as she rushed over.
Zhang Qiu's expression changed instantly; he pulled Jiang Xue behind him and grabbed the Red-Faced Guard by his collar, speaking slowly and clearly, "Are you looking for death?"
"What do you want? Let go of him!" The Security Chief said sternly, raising his hand to command Zhang Qiu.
Zhang Qiu shot a glare at the Red-Faced Guard and suddenly released his grip, pushing him back. The Red-Faced Guard stumbled a few steps backward.
Fuming with anger, the Red-Faced Guard wanted to retaliate but was held back by the presence of the Security Chief; it wasn't his place to act. He could only stand aside in frustration. The Red-Faced Guard knew very well that this couple would not have an easy time.
The Security Chief pressed closer, saying, "You’re both seniors about to take your college entrance exams. Instead of studying hard, you're messing around with relationships? The school has repeatedly stated that abnormal relationships are not allowed; don’t you understand that?"
Zhang Qiu coldly looked at the Security Chief and questioned, "What gives him the right to hit someone?"
"No one hit you," the Security Chief scoffed at Zhang Qiu's questioning. He was always the one asking questions; how could anyone question him? The Security Chief emphasized again, "I ask you, the school does not allow inappropriate relationships. Do you understand?"
"Why would he hit someone? I will ask one last time. If there is no answer, then I will hit back," Qiu Wan said, looking expressionlessly at the Red-Faced Guard.
"You've got some nerve! I see you're getting bold!" The Security Chief's face turned red as he waved his hand. "Take them to the security room." He added, "Don't get cocky. I'll call your homeroom teacher to let her see what kind of good student she has raised."
Zhang Qiu was not afraid of going to the Director's Office, but the thought of the homeroom teacher coming made his heart skip a beat. He said to the Security Chief, "Since we're going to the Director's Office, why bother calling the homeroom teacher? She has enough on her plate. Let's just meet with the Director directly."
The Security Chief glanced at Zhang Qiu. "Oh, so you do care about others."
"I think he's actually afraid of the homeroom teacher," the Red-Faced Guard interjected.
Zhang Qiu frowned and looked at the Red-Faced Guard beside him. He had already decided that if he faced punishment, this person would not be spared.
The Director's Office was only separated from Class Eighteen by a corridor. The soundproofing in the teaching building was poor, and with the windows open, the students in the classroom could hear everything clearly during the verbal sparring between the Security Chief and Zhang Qiu. Especially when they heard Zhang Qiu repeatedly questioning why someone had been hit, Zhao Pingchuan, Gao Zhi, and Wang Zhengxiang were almost ready to rush out of the classroom. Even Yao Yu, who had withdrawn from the club, felt anxious for Zhang Qiu and kept glancing at the window, but unfortunately, it was too high to see what was happening in the corridor.
The Geography Teacher pounded on the blackboard vigorously, repeatedly emphasizing, "Pay attention!" He kept an eye on Zhao Pingchuan, Gao Zhi, Wang Zhengxiang, and others who were restless until he heard that the Security Chief was taking them to the Director's Office. Only then did he return to normalcy and continue his lesson smoothly.
