Tangling with the Western Commander
Chapter 577 - 574

Chapter 577: Chapter 574

Seeing the proof, Li Zaijun couldn’t help but slightly widen his eyes, apparently not expecting him to have obtained such a thing.

Principal Chen even put on his glasses, reviewing her parents’ identity information as his eyebrows knit slightly together.

Shen Lin spoke in a calm and steady tone,

"Principal Chen, actually, it doesn’t matter whether Xiaojun is a widow of a military person or not. If she indeed made a mistake, we would definitely take responsibility for everything. However, if she is innocent, we cannot force her to admit to a wrongdoing. You see ... right?"

A faint smile lingered at the corners of his lips, yet the words he spoke carried a warning between each line.

Everyone heard it.

He then added, "We surely can’t let a widow of a military person be threatened by power, otherwise, it would indeed dishearten these military personnel."

Upon hearing this, Principal Chen’s body stiffened for a moment.

Li Zaijun stood behind him, listening to his words, and slowly raised her head to look at him.

"..."

It turned out he understood more about her than she had thought.

She gazed at him, a complex expression flashing briefly through the depths of her eyes.

This man, when he got serious, was quite convincing.

Then, Principal Chen spoke again:

"Mr. Shen, rest assured on that front. As the school authority, we would not favor any party. We are committed to fairness and justice, but we still hope they can resolve it privately, as they are all classmates. If it really escalates to the police, it would not bode well for the students."

Upon hearing this, Shen Lin smiled, loosening his tie slightly,

"Principal Chen, with your words, I am relieved."

The sharp sound of high heels clicking on the floor along with other footsteps came from the outside corridor.

Everyone clearly knew who was arriving at this moment.

Just then, Principal Chen looked at Shen Lin hesitantly and asked,

"Mr. Shen, do you know ... Shen Yaohua?"

At this, Shen Lin slightly raised his eyebrows, then with a light smile playing on his lips, he said unhurriedly,

"Principal Chen, I didn’t expect you to know my father."

At those words, Principal Chen: "..."

His expression turned extremely complex and subtly changed in an instant.

He had only noticed a resemblance in their faces and had heard his cousin was a military doctor, so he inquired further, but he did not expect this man to be his son.

And Shen Yaohua was a high-ranking official in the central government.

Previously, the morals-preaching head teacher and the female teacher also fell silent, not just silent, but some were even subtly breaking out in a sweat.

At this point, the principal smiled again: "I didn’t expect the son of General Shen to have gone into business."

Shen Lin: "So because of this, my father was so furious he almost broke my legs."

Li Zaijun: "..."

Honestly, Li Zaijun wasn’t very clear about his exact status, only hearing from her aunt that he and her brother were good friends at university, had trained together in the military, but he had left the forces to venture out and do business.

Yet she hadn’t expected his family background to be similar to hers, both hailing from a military family.

It is no wonder that that night he hadn’t——

She thought of something, her eyes briefly flickering.

And as they spoke, the people outside also came in...!
