"I know, thank you for your concern," Ye Fei nodded.

"You have to protect me. I'll be busy making up exams for a while and I can't delay my studies. If you are not around me, I won't feel safe." Lin Qingwan c.o.c.ked her head, "Well, I'm going to call Chu Mo and ask her to come over and help explain everything to the director."

Ye Fei did not speak, for he felt it was unnecessary, but he had no objections to her kindness.

Lin Qingwan dialed Chu Mo's phone number. "Hi, Chu Mo, where are you?"

There was a lot of background noise as Chu Mo replied, "I'm with Liu Manman at an internet cafe. She is playing games."

"Can you come to the university? I need your help with something."

Then Lin Qingwan briefly explained what happened that day.

"Oh G.o.d... How can Ye Fei do this? Not only the students, but even the professor? Hmm, fine, I'll take Manman home and I'll be right there." Chu Mo hesitated for a moment, "But... I think it'd be better if someone stayed with Manman while I'm away."

"Well, let's have Ye Fei babysit her." Lin Qingwan winked to Ye Fei and added, "He's done so many things today, I think he is a little tired."

"Alright, send him back as soon as possible!" Chu Mo hung up.

"You heard the professor, Ye Fei. Go home!"

Lin Qingwan told Ye Fei to take a taxi back home. After a while, Chu Mo briskly trotted over.

The two went directly to the director's office. When the director saw Lin Qingwan come in, he frowned, "Miss Lin, why have you come back? I know your father is a sponsor of Shanghai University and invests millions of RMB with us every year, but that does not mean you can let your bodyguard do whatever he wants on this campus."

Lin Qingwan shrugged and said nothing.

To tell the truth, if her father were not such an important sponsor of the university, she would have been punished for what Ye Fei did.

But thanks to her father, she had nothing to worry about.　

Nonetheless, the Yamamoto family's influence was considerable as well, and the faculty could not just let it slide.

Chu Mo followed Lin Qingwan into the office. "Director..."

The director suddenly beamed with friendliness. "Ah, Professor Chu Mo! What are you doing here? Please sit down, I just got a box of West Lake Longjing Tea. Would you like a cup?"

Chu Mo internally scoffed at his smarmy behavior, but still obediently sat down. "Director, I've come on behalf of Ye Fei. As far as I know, Ye Fei is a good-natured man. He has been helping me support a few of the poor students who attend our university."

"Hmm? Is that so?" The director looked surprised and pondered for a moment. "In that case, I suppose we will have to investigate the complaints against him further."

Lin Qingwan was surprised at how quickly the director's att.i.tude changed. The three chatted for a while longer and the director patted his bosom to guarantee that he would seriously investigate the matter and find out the truth.

Outside the office, Lin Qingwan patted Chu Mo on the shoulder and smiled, "Even the director gives you face!"

"Bah, sn.o.bs like him are just trying to get on my father's good side," Chu Mo sighed. Few people knew her father was a senior official in the Bureau of Education.

......

Soon after Chu Mo and Lin Qingwan left, two other people entered the director's office.

One was the deputy director, Su Jinxiu. Beside him was a middle-aged married woman with worried eyes.

As soon as the woman entered the office, the director stood up from his seat and went to greet her. "Mrs. Yamamoto, was there anything else?"

"My son has been beaten!" Yamamoto Meizhu said angrily and loudly. "What about the man who beat him? Have you called the police on him yet?"

The director felt a cold sweat on his back and didn't know what to tell her.

She was a member of the board of trustees of his college and she had a bad temper. Even the director had to respect her.

He stammered, "No... Um, no."

"Why?" Yamamoto Meizhu banged her fist on his desk.

"Because your son was injured in the fighting ring at the karate hall. And… As far as I know, he was the one who challenged Ye Fei to a fight." The director pondered for a moment and added, "He's a young man, it's normal for him to get hurt every once in a while..."

"Normal?!"

Yamamoto Meizhu rummaged in her purse and threw a folded sheet of paper on the desk, "This is the doctor's diagnosis. The surgeon said my son's hands are broken. His life is ruined!"

The director hurriedly picked up the diagnosis and carefully read through it.

"Director, I will take my son back to j.a.pan tomorrow. The medical facilities there are far better than here. If my son's hands can be fully healed, I will not pursue this matter any further. But... If my son is maimed for life because of this... I will tear the b.a.s.t.a.r.d who did this limb from limb and make him regret he was ever born," Yamamoto Meizhu glowered. "So, before that, I want you to have him locked up! Can you do that?"

The director hesitated. After a long while, he said weakly, "Mrs. Yamamoto... We have rule of law here in China. It's your son's fault, you know."

"I don't care!" Yamamoto Meizhu screamed. "Even if he started it, so what? The man who beat my son took it too far!"
