In the private room, Principal Tong Bin heard this exclamation and looked up in confusion. He immediately saw the tea set that he had treasured in the cabinet and stood up angrily. “Shi Man! Who allowed you to enter and leave the principal’s office casually and touch my things!”
The principal’s thunderous might frightened the other students in the private room into silence. Liu Xin looked at the door gloatingly, waiting to see how Shi Man would explain her mistake.
However, the panicked expression Liu Xin imagined did not appear on Shi Man’s face.
Shi Man stood calmly at the door and pushed the canteen aunt forward. “Principal, obeying orders is a principle every military school student has to abide by. The leader instructed me to ask for an eye-catching tea set, so I could only look for it in your office.”
Tong Bin widened his eyes and stared at her angrily.
He had spent a lot of money to bid for that tea set for his collection!
Even he could not bear to use it once. Shi Man actually took it out to make tea. It was simply a waste!
Just as he was about to scold her, Shi Man would not give him the chance. She spread her hands innocently and said, “It’s just a tea set that can catch the leader’s eye. 1 thought that since you and the leader are relatives, you shouldn’t be reluctant. That’s why I took it and used it. Principal, you’re glaring at me like this because you don’t want to use your precious tea set for the leader, right?”
Shi Man’s light words stopped Tong Bin. He couldn’t say that he was willing, nor could he say that he was unwilling. He could only endure his anger. Otherwise, people would think that he was petty towards his niece!
But he was really angry!
Tong Bin sat back on the chair and stared at her sinisterly. “Alright, I bought this tea set for Xinxin. Bring the tea over personally.”
He emphasized the word “personally”. Clearly, he did not want Shi Man to take advantage of any loopholes and wanted to take the opportunity to embarrass her.
Shi Man raised her eyebrows slightly and reached out to pour a cup of tea on the tray in the aunt’s hand. She placed one hand behind her back and held the teacup in the other as she walked towards Liu Xin with a smile.
Most of the leaders’ seats were in the innermost corner of the round table. This meant that if Shi Man wanted to pass tea to Liu Xin, she had to pass by Tong Bin.
She knew in her heart that Tong Bin would probably cause her some trouble, so she walked slowly, but no one could find fault with her.
Liu Xin took a deep breath. For some reason, she felt that Shi Man’s deliberately slow footsteps were a little torturous.
She could only sit in her seat and hold her breath as she waited for Shi Man to approach. She had clearly ordered Shi Man to pour tea for her, but now, she had become the nervous one, as if Shi Man was the leader who had condescended and she was the flattered subordinate.
This realization had just surfaced in her heart for a moment when she ruthlessly extinguished it.
She had lost countless things to regain her current status. How could she admit that she had actually lost to a student who had yet to graduate?
Shi Man was just an inexperienced girl. How was she worthy of her fear?
With this thought in mind, the pressure around Liu Xin suddenly decreased. Even the teacher sitting beside her felt a little uncomfortable. She quietly moved her stool to prevent herself from being implicated later.
Although Tong Bin narrowed his eyes and kept looking ahead, he was still paying attention to Shi Man’s actions from the corner of his eye. Seeing that she had already walked close, he suddenly moved his right leg and took a step forward to cross his feet when she was unprepared.
Shi Man was guarding against him using this trick to embarrass her. She chuckled indifferently and suddenly flicked a silver needle between her fingers. In the next second, the principal’s face suddenly turned ashen. He gritted his teeth to not roar in embarrassment.
Shi Man raised her eyebrows and held back her smile. She quickly reached out and placed the teacup in front of Liu Xin. Then, she looked at Tong Bin with concern. “Principal, what’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?”
Tong Bin looked up at her fiercely, then lowered his head to look at his thigh, which would hurt even when he moved a little. He said angrily, “What did you do?”
Shi Man blinked at him innocently. “Principal, I was pouring tea for the leader. Didn’t you see it?”
Tong Bin’s expression turned cold. He could not help but growl, “1 said, what did you do to my leg!”
The people who heard this subconsciously lowered their heads and looked at Tong Bin’s legs. However, when they were glared at by Tong Bin, they immediately sat back down and did not dare to look around.
Others were afraid of the power in Tong Bin’s hands, but Shi Man was fearless. She continued to spread her hands innocently in an infuriating tone.
“Principal, I really don’t know what you’re talking about. My hand didn’t touch your leg just now!”
The more Shi Man said this, the more he felt that the pain in his leg was Shi Man’s doing.. However, how could Shi Man attack silently in front of him and look as though she did nothing?
