Xu Chang'an didn't ask her for help, and Li Zhibai bypassed her to seek out the Profound Sword Bureau.
This is the real reason for her anger. Just Xu Chang'an alone isn't enough to make Zhu Pingniang gnash her teeth in hatred.

Xu Chang'an blinked upon hearing this.
Is this what the teacher thinks?
At the time, he only made the request because the atmosphere demanded it, yet the teacher actually thought of the Profound Sword Bureau, warming his heart for a moment.
However, listening to Zhu Pingniang's mutterings, Xu Chang'an rubbed his forehead.
Now he understood why she was angry.
Women... even someone like Senior Zhu, can really be—troublesome.
"Senior, the teacher ought to know you've been busy in Beisang City for years and didn't want to trouble you, so he just sought some information," Xu Chang'an explained.
