Starting as a War God: Global Goddesses Blocking my Door

Chapter 224 Turmoil at Baiwei Building



Knock, knock, knock!

As Kong Haodong and Dong Dahai chatted and laughed, a series of knocks on the door could be heard from outside.

"They're here!" Kong Haodong's eyes brightened.

Dong Dahai let out a sly chuckle, "Young Master Kong, just watch my performance!"

The next moment, Dong Dahai pretended to be solemn, "Come in!"

"Miss Tang, please come in!" With permission granted, the private room door was pushed open.

Tang Shishi looked dubious. She really couldn't figure out why someone of her minor significance was being summoned by some important person.

Upon entering the private room, the first thing she saw was the smiling face of Kong Haodong.

Seeing Kong Haodong, Tang Shishi couldn't help but get angry, "Kong Haodong, why is it you? I've already said that there's no chance of anything between us. Please stop bothering me in the future!"

Ever since her mother had been critically ill and Kong Haodong had tried to coerce her by claiming he knew the number one divine doctor in Central Plains, Tang Renjie, she'd completely lost all interest in Kong Haodong. Although he kept asking her out and apologizing to her afterward, Tang Shishi rejected all his advances, knowing full well that Kong Haodong's interest in her wasn't genuine but rather an itch he simply couldn't scratch.

"Shishi, listen to what you're saying. I'm not here to harass you today, but rather to discuss your long-term career prospects!" Kong Haodong chuckled.

Tang Shishi replied with a scowl, "I appreciate your concern!"

After saying so, Tang Shishi didn't want to stay another minute and turned to leave.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

"Shishi, why the rush to leave? Didn't you see Principal Dong is right here?" Kong Haodong seemed to have Tang Shishi all figured out.

"Principal Dong?"

Hearing these three words, Tang Shishi was stunned, and she instinctively turned her head to see Principal Dong Dahai watching her with a smile.

Dong Dahai laughed heartily, "Teacher Tang, since you're here, why the hurry to leave? Actually, after some advice from Young Master Kong, I have something to discuss with you!"

"Principal Dong, what... what is it?" Tang Shishi asked in astonishment.

Dong Dahai pointed to a seat, "It's a long story. Teacher Tang, please take a seat first!"

"This..."

Tang Shishi hesitated. She couldn't escape the feeling that something unpleasant was bound to happen when Dong Dahai was together with Kong Haodong.

"Teacher Tang, please sit!" Dong Dahai's tone grew firmer.

As the principal of Baihua Road Primary School, Dong Dahai held absolute power, and seeing him command her to sit, Tang Shishi reluctantly took a seat.

She had no choice—Dong Dahai was her superior, and she dared not offend him.

Once Tang Shishi was seated, Kong Haodong snapped his fingers, "Waiter, bring the drinks and dishes!"

Following Kong Haodong's command, the dishes and drinks prepared in advance by the Baiwei Building were swiftly served on the table.

"Teacher Tang, you've been working hard these days. Here, let me toast to you!" Dong Dahai personally filled a glass with white liquor for Tang Shishi.

Tang Shishi, visibly overwhelmed, responded, "Sorry Principal Dong, I can't drink alcohol!"

"Can't drink?"

Upon hearing this, Dong Dahai laughed boisterously, "Teacher Tang, how can you not drink? You are someone who will be doing great things in the future; you might as well start learning now!"

"Someone who will be doing great things?" Tang Shishi looked puzzled.

Kong Haodong chimed in to support him, "That's right! Shishi, I just inquired about your performance at school. Principal Dong says you've always excelled and that the classes you lead are consistently ranked first in your grade. You've even been named one of the school's top ten class heads of the year. The principal intends to promote you to Grade Director this year!"

"What? Promote me to Grade Director?" Tang Shishi was shocked.

She had only been working for a short time and lacked the necessary experience. What shocked her was that Dong Dahai was actually planning to promote her to Grade Director, which was indeed surprising.

Dong Dahai nodded with satisfaction, "Yes, Teacher Tang, I really admire the way you conduct yourself, so this year I'm planning to make an exception and promote you. Come on, let's drink a toast!"

"I... I really can't drink alcohol!" Tang Shishi said, her face filled with panic.

Kong Haodong's expression changed, "Shishi, Principal Dong is giving you an opportunity, why aren't you cherishing it? You should know, countless people want to drink with Principal Dong!"

"Teacher Tang, you're not going to deny me face, are you?" Dong Dahai's expression turned sour in an instant.

Seeing Dong Dahai get angry, Tang Shishi reluctantly picked up the glass and said, "Thank you, Principal Dong, I toast to you!"

As she spoke, under tremendous pressure, Tang Shishi picked up the glass and downed all the white liquor in it in one go.

"How bold, truly bold! Teacher Tang, if you can drink like that, I will too!"

Seeing Tang Shishi drink all her glass in one gulp, Dong Dahai also finished his white liquor in a single draft.

"Cough, cough!"

After drinking all the white liquor, Tang Shishi felt a burning sensation in her throat and chest, and her beautiful cheeks instantly turned red.

"Newcomers are fierce!" Kong Haodong secretly clicked his tongue on the side.

The glasses used for drinking tonight were disposable, and a full glass held a little over two ounces. A normal person doing well to drink about half a bottle under usual circumstances.

Tang Shishi had never drunk alcohol before, and she had just consumed over two ounces in one glass, which truly surprised Kong Haodong.

Dong Dahai was a veteran of social drinking, and one glass of liquor was merely an appetizer to him.

Seeing Tang Shishi cough, Dong Dahai laughed and said, "Teacher Tang, don't rush, have some food, quickly eat something!"

"Thank you, Principal Dong!"

Tang Shishi felt as if there was a fire burning in her chest. She picked up her chopsticks and hurriedly ate a few bites, which somewhat alleviated the burning sensation.

"Teacher Tang, feeling better now? Come on, let's have another one!" Dong Dahai poured another full glass for Tang Shishi.

With an embarrassed look on her face, Tang Shishi said, "Principal Dong, I really can't hold my liquor. I haven't even recovered from that last glass. How about we don't drink anymore?"

It was only then that Tang Shishi noticed they had been drinking Feitian Moutai tonight, a brand she had heard was not only expensive but also packed a powerful punch.

No sooner had she finished speaking than Tang Shishi felt so drunk she could hardly cope.

"Teacher Tang, we must make the most of joyful times. Tonight, we are rarely so happy, so we must drink another!" Dong Dahai picked up his glass decisively.

Experienced in socializing, Dong Dahai could tell that a rookie like Tang Shishi, who had drunk a glass of white liquor on an empty stomach without any food, was a newcomer with a low tolerance.

Now that Tang Shishi was showing signs of drunkenness, he intensified his efforts. If he could get Tang Shishi completely drunk, his mission for the evening would be over.

Kong Haodong also picked up his glass, his face full of excitement, "Shishi, Principal Dong is right, we must make the most of joyful times. Come on, I'll drink one with you two!"

Meanwhile, Ye Fan and Ling'er had arrived at the Central Plains Southern District, yet they hadn't seen any sign of Tang Shishi.

"Dad, where could Teacher Tang have been taken?" Ling'er said, her face etched with concern.

Ye Fan's expression grew increasingly grim, "The South District is too big, it's indeed difficult to find her. Don't worry, Ling'er, Teacher Tang has good fortune, she definitely won't have any problems."

"Dad, let's hurry up and keep looking. The longer we delay, the more danger Teacher Tang is in!" Ling'er urged.

Ye Fan nodded solemnly, "Okay, let's continue searching!"

Inside the private room, the kick from the Feitian Moutai was getting stronger, severely stimulating Tang Shishi's brain and nerves.

Seeing both Dong Dahai and Kong Haodong pick up their glasses, she quickly waved her hands.

"Principal Dong, I really can't drink anymore!"

Upon hearing this, Dong Dahai's face cooled, and he commanded, "Teacher Tang, what do you mean by that? Are you saying you won't give me face? It's just a simple glass of liquor. Come on, drink it in one go!"
