406: Section 406

Tang Baichuan's expression immediately became a bit more ingratiating.

"Xiaoying, I just have a few words, I'll hang up right after. Lin Yi is in trouble!"

"What?"

Tang Baichuan had just finished speaking when Director Yi Xiaoying's sharp voice came through the phone.

The piercing shriek made Tang Baichuan instinctively pull the receiver away from his ear.

"Tang Baichuan, what did I tell you?"

"Lin Yi is at your Xingwu University, and I told you to keep an eye on him for me. Is this how you're taking care of him?"

"How is he now? Is it serious? Is he injured, or..."

As the saying goes, concern leads to confusion.

When Director Yi Xiaoying heard that Lin Yi was in trouble, her first thought was that Lin Yi had been injured or something worse had happened.

After a long pause, Tang Baichuan hurriedly said: "No, listen to me first!"

"Lin Yi isn't hurt. He was sparring with a senior and ended up injuring him!"

"He even caused internal injuries, and now the person is unconscious!"

"I can handle the student's family, but if this matter reaches the Martial Suppression Bureau, and they classify it as a fight between Martial Artists..."

After Tang Baichuan finished speaking, Director Yi Xiaoying on the other end of the phone finally let out a long sigh of relief.

"It's good that Lin Yi isn't the one who's hurt!"

"Has the Martial Suppression Bureau already intervened in this matter?"

Director Yi Xiaoying's tone finally calmed down. Reason had regained the high ground.

Tang Baichuan hurriedly shook his head: "No, wait, I'm not sure... The incident just happened, and Old Qiao came to tell me about it!"

"You know how the people from the Martial Suppression Bureau are, they're everywhere!"

"Any fight or brawl reaches them, and I'm worried the Martial Suppression Bureau..."

Before he could finish, Director Yi Xiaoying said in a calm tone: "I'll handle the Martial Suppression Bureau!"

"You should properly appease the injured student and his family!"

"Pay whatever compensation is necessary, and do whatever needs to be done!"

"We're not in the right here... However, this must absolutely not affect Lin Yi!"

"I'm afraid it will create an unnecessary burden on his mind!"

"My dad just reunited with him; don't let this affect him mentally!"

"What? Dad reunited with Lin Yi?"

Tang Baichuan said in surprise just after Director Yi Xiaoying finished speaking. After he spoke, Director Yi Xiaoying's tone turned cold.

"Tang Baichuan, you're always like this. No matter what I tell you, you never grasp the main point!"

"Also... don't forget, we are already divorced. That is my dad, not your dad!"

"That's all for now, I'm going to handle the Martial Suppression Bureau!"

After Director Yi Xiaoying finished speaking, she hung up the phone directly.

Tang Baichuan listened to the 'beep-beep-beep' busy signal coming from the phone. He couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

He had originally planned to use the opportunity of taking care of Lin Yi to make Director Yi Xiaoying change her opinion of him, so they could remarry.

Who would have thought that something like this would happen.

Although he was the principal of Xingwu University, he had no authority to intervene in matters involving the Martial Suppression Bureau.

Let alone him, even the Monster Hunting Bureau and the Martial Arts Alliance couldn't interfere with the Martial Suppression Bureau... let alone a principal like him.

However, with the Face of the Yi Family and the backing of the Weaponry Bureau, the Martial Suppression Bureau could surely compromise a little, right?

...

Martial Suppression Bureau headquarters. Director He sat in his office, busy deploying work tasks.

Just then, a call came in.

"Hello?" Director He answered the phone.

"Director He, Director Yi from the Weaponry Bureau is here and wants to see you!"

"Who? Director Yi? Which Director Yi?" Director He was stunned; he couldn't recall who this was for a moment.

Before the person on the phone could finish, someone else snatched it away.

"Director He, I am Director Yi Xiaoying from the Weaponry Bureau. Can I meet with you?"

"Director Yi Xiaoying? Oh, I remember now. Come in!" Director He nodded in sudden realization.

After hanging up the phone, he still felt a bit strange.

Although he knew General Yi Nanshan and they had some friendship, there wasn't much interaction between the Martial Suppression Bureau and the Yi Family.

After all, the Martial Suppression Bureau mainly managed the security issues of the New District.

The Yi Family's main position was in the Martial Arts Alliance; General Yi Nanshan was a Garrison Commander, and his two sons were generals in the two major war zones.

Their daughter worked in the Weaponry Bureau; they had nothing to do with each other.

If not for Lin Yi, their Martial Suppression Bureau might never have had any intersection with the Yi Family in their entire lives.

And Director Yi Xiaoying was even less qualified to see Director He.

Soon, the office door was knocked on. Director He looked up and said: "Come in!"

The door opened, and a beautiful woman walked in.

"Director He..."

"You are? Director Yi, right? Nice to meet you, nice to meet you. Xiao Hu, go brew a pot of tea!"

"Yes!" The secretary outside nodded quickly.

Director He also smiled and walked out from behind his desk. He accompanied Director Yi Xiaoying to sit on the sofa.

"Director Yi, did you come to see me today for official business or personal business?" Director He asked first.

Director Yi Xiaoying was stunned at first. She had never had contact with Director He before and didn't know what kind of person he was.

She only knew that Director He, with a 6-star Realm, was able to manage the Martial Suppression Bureau, so he naturally had unique methods.

And to tell the truth, let alone her, Director Yi Xiaoying, even for the entire Yi Family, apart from General Yi Nanshan, there wasn't a second person who could speak to Director He.

The Martial Suppression Bureau was under the Martial God and was not subject to any department. They even had the right to speak in front of the Monster Hunting Bureau and the Martial Arts Alliance.

And the former two departments dared not provoke the Martial Suppression Bureau easily.

Although the Weaponry Bureau was responsible for researching and manufacturing weapons, they had no intersection with the Martial Suppression Bureau.

Therefore, she hadn't expected Director He to be so straightforward. He didn't even continue with small talk and asked directly.

Director Yi Xiaoying smiled: "Director He, I came here today mainly for a private matter!"

"Oh?" Director He was stunned, then smiled and nodded: "Since it's a private matter, Director Yi, please be straightforward and just say it!"

"It's like this... I would like to consult with you first: if an injury occurs during sparring, does that count as a brawl?" Director Yi Xiaoying said with a smile.

Hearing this, Director He's brows furrowed deeply. He glanced at Director Yi Xiaoying from the corner of his eye: "Sparring? How were they sparring? Where were they sparring?"

"The term 'sparring' is very vague. If two Martial Artists get into a fight on the street and they both claim it's 'sparring', can such a statement be convincing?"

"Furthermore... if they are sparring in a designated location and an injury occurs, that is indeed sparring. As long as no one dies, pay the compensation, and the Martial Suppression Bureau will not intervene!"
