Chapter 724 - 664: Spreading Rumors is a Serious Crime!
Once all the guests were seated, the Grand Preceptor looked at the many people who had come to celebrate his birthday and was overjoyed.Even Ren Buqun felt a little moved at the moment.
So many people have come!
I have finally risen to prominence.
So, the Grand Preceptor picked up the jug beside him, poured himself a cup of wine, and lifted his cup.
However, before the Grand Preceptor had a chance to speak, he heard the Cat-eared Lady beside him whispering a reminder, "Grand Preceptor, your health isn’t good, you mustn’t drink alcohol."
Ren Buqun said with a smile, "It’s all right, it’s all right. Today is my birthday, I’m the boss. Drinking one cup, that’s nothing."
As he spoke, the Grand Preceptor raised his cup.
And seeing that the Grand Preceptor had lifted his cup, everyone else also raised their own.
"Today, I am deeply grateful that all of you could attend my birthday celebration. Everyone here, no matter who, is an honored guest of the Imperial College..."
Bang!
Just then, a loud noise came from afar.
Immediately, someone ran in and shouted, "It’s bad! Someone is kicking in the door!"
Afterward, about a dozen figures rushed in like ghosts, heading inside.
They didn’t wreak havoc left and right along the way.
However, suddenly barging in during someone’s birthday feast, and kicking open the door no less, that was very rude.
However, as those dozen figures reached the entrance of the hall, Zhang San immediately stood up, his face a mix of shock and confusion, and greeted the people at the doorway, "Big Sister, Vermilion Bird Principal Officer, why have you come?"
Those who had burst in were the Martial Artists of the Town Martial Office.
The Vermilion Bird Principal Officer stood aside, silent. Her task today was to kick down the door and stand by the side to intimidate everyone.
The one really in charge of communication was Third Miss Gan standing at the center.
"Ladies and gentlemen, my apologies. I am Third Miss Gan, Acting Officer of the Town Martial Office, and this is our Vermilion Bird Principal Officer. Today, we are here to investigate a case concerning Imperial College students spreading rumors about the Wang Family. If we have caused any disturbance, we hope for your understanding,"
As she spoke, Third Miss Gan took out an arrest warrant and read, "Wang Quexiao, Wang Litong, and Wang Buying. These three, they are all students of the Imperial College, right? Could the teachers of the Imperial College please bring these three students over to us? We need to take them back to the Town Martial Office for investigation."
While everyone was bewildered and shocked, Zhang San immediately stepped forward and said, "That won’t be necessary, surely? Although these three are students at the Imperial College, they wouldn’t have done anything wrong. Today we are celebrating the birthday of the Grand Preceptor of the Imperial College. Big Sister, could you give us some face?"
"Hmph!" Third Miss Gan snorted coldly, glared at Zhang San, and said angrily, "These three have been spreading rumors about the Wang Family, about the double prodigies of the Wang Family all over the Capital. They have already caused a great disruption to the work of the Town Martial Office. What now? Are you refusing to hand them over, expecting our Martial Artists of the Town Martial Office to search the Imperial College?"
Zhang San immediately looked towards the Grand Preceptor sitting above, his face full of embarrassment.
And in that moment, the Grand Preceptor himself was completely dumbfounded.
Am I not just celebrating a birthday?oday. My apologies, I am sincerely sorry. Come on, Grand Preceptor, you are a large-hearted person, please don’t hold this against me. Let’s toast."
While speaking, Zhang San took a wine cup from the Cat-eared Lady’s hand and poured himself a drink.
However, the Grand Preceptor, looking at the drop of fresh red spreading in his wine cup, sadly shook his head and then gently set down the cup.
"Drinking alcohol is bad for one’s health, I won’t drink. Everyone, please enjoy yourselves. I am a bit tired. I will take my leave now."
Saying this, the Grand Preceptor stood up shakily and turned to leave.
