Lu Mian has always protected her own people.
The hierarchical injustice in the chess academy ran so deep, Su Luo had suffered countless indignities, both openly and secretly.
This was something she wouldn't stand for.
If they dared to expel Su Luo like this, they'd better be prepared to beg her to come back.
While she was scrolling through her phone, Jing Pei reached out from across the table and stopped her movements.
Su Luo and La Wenwen looked up, holding their breath nervously.
Deep down, they couldn't help but fear this unpredictable master, especially since Master Jing had a good relationship with the academy. This could spell trouble…
Just as the two of them were growing increasingly uneasy, Jing Pei lazily fanned himself and said, "Why do *you* need to get involved? Let me handle this!"
Lu Mian glanced up at Jing Pei with a calm look and said, "Go ahead."
She temporarily set aside the idea of asking Sikong Jian to intervene.
