At the gate of Jiangcheng Experimental Middle School, Lu Anning looked at herself in the mirror again, confirmed that there was no problem with her makeup and clothes, took a deep breath, and then stepped into the school.

When they first met, Tang Jingyuan asked her to deal with the problem of children fighting at school. Isn't this deliberately making things difficult for her?

It is said that being a stepmother is difficult. Later, when she meets Tang Rui, she will know what to say.

Her heart was pounding. She was not as nervous as she was now when she and Tang Jingyuan got their marriage certificate.

Before Lu Anning even entered the office, she could hear adults complaining. She knocked on the door and walked in, only to see a little boy standing in the corner with his head lowered. There were faint bruises on his fair face and the corners of his mouth, and his school uniform was torn.

Lu Anning frowned, and his heart ached when he thought of himself as a child.

The head teacher pushed up his glasses and asked politely, "Excuse me, who are you?"

"I am Tang Rui's parent."

As soon as Lu An Ning revealed his identity, the couple next to him immediately surrounded him.

"You are Tang Rui's parent! You must discipline your child properly. He's already learned to hit others at such a young age. Look at how badly he beat my precious son. His face is bruised and swollen. He must be severely punished for this matter."

"That's right! Tang Rui hit my son, and he must pay the price. Teacher, what I mean is, after the injury is examined, not only must he pay compensation, but he must also be given a serious warning. Otherwise, he won't learn his lesson."

Lu An Ning ignored the chattering couple and looked at the beaten child. This sight startled Lu An Ning.

The opponent was a head taller than Tang Rui and looked strong and powerful, with a bruised face and nose, but how could this big guy actually get beaten?

"Don't be impatient, please let me understand the basic situation first, then we can talk later."

Lu Anning asked to talk to the child alone, and the teacher did not refuse.

Lu An Ning came to the corner, smiled and stretched out her hand to the child. The boy looked up at her, said nothing, and walked outside. Lu An Ning had no choice but to follow him.

In the corridor, Lu Anning couldn't help laughing as he looked at the stubborn little figure, and took out an iodine cotton swab from his bag.

"My name is Lu Anning, and I just got married to your father. This is not the way I wanted our first meeting to go. Anyway, let's take care of the wound first. If it's convenient, you can tell me what that classmate did to anger you."

The boy looked at her, somewhat puzzled, but remained silent.

Lu Anning sighed: "You probably don't want your dad to come and deal with it personally! Talk to Auntie, did he bully you?"

"Don't you think I hit someone?"

Lu Anning smiled: "My intuition tells me that you are the victim. Besides, I am the type of person who loves to protect others."

The boy frowned and stared at Lu An Ning. Lu An Ning did not rush him. He carefully treated his wounds and muttered, "You are quite amazing. He is tall and strong, and you actually won."

The boy listened quietly to Lu Anning's chatter. After a while, he finally spoke: "He was the first to start!"

Lu Anning's smile froze and she motioned for him to continue.

It turned out that the other party wanted to borrow Tang Rui's homework to copy. Tang Rui was not happy about it. The other party called him a wild child, and when he saw Tang Rui resisting, he punched him directly.

"It's fine if he calls me a bastard, but he can't call my dad a bastard. He started it first, and I was acting in self-defense."

Lu Anning sighed and touched the child's head distressedly: "I understand. Don't worry, no one can bully you with me here."

Lu Anning brought the child back to the office with a cold glint in his eyes.

Seeing her alone, the other parent was even more arrogant: "What's the matter? This kid beat my son like this, there's no way he'll let it go."

"That's right! He's so cruel at such a young age. What will happen to him when he grows up? In my opinion, he should be expelled."

Lu Anning sneered, "Teacher, I just found out. It seems they were the first to attack! The school has surveillance cameras, so they should be able to prove it."

The head teacher nodded. "It was wrong for him to fight back. Look at what he did to the other kid. While he won't be expelled, he should at least be criticized. If Tang Rui behaves well, we might consider waiving the punishment."

"Oh? Teacher, what you mean is that if you get hit, you can't fight back, right?"

"Of course! Hitting someone is wrong. Even if they strike first, you can reason with them, but you can't fight violence with violence."

Lu An Ning smiled, flexed her wrists, and moved closer to the head teacher. Suddenly, her eyes turned cold, and she raised her hand and slapped the head teacher hard.

The head teacher was stunned by the beating and subconsciously wanted to fight back, but Lu An Ning grabbed his wrist.

Lu An Ning stared at the clear slap marks on the teacher's face and said in a cold voice, "Teacher, didn't you say that you can't fight back when you're beaten? Are you going to fight violence with violence?"

"You! You..." The head teacher was so angry that her eyes turned red and she was speechless for a long time. This was the first time she had seen such a parent.

Everyone was stunned by Lu Anning's actions and didn't react for a long time.

She actually dared to fight with the head teacher!

"Teacher, as the homeroom teacher, you are indiscriminate and have caused my child to suffer in school. I will definitely file a complaint against you. Teachers like you will only lead my child astray. It is better not to attend a school like this. In addition, your children insulted my son and my husband and maliciously hurt them. You can expect to receive a lawyer's letter!"
