Chapter 972 Side Story: Evening in the City (35)



"This..." Song Wan was at a loss for what to do.

The children are still young, but they can already distinguish between good and evil.

If she is not even as good as a child, how can she be a role model for students?

Song Wan bit her lip, first checked James's injuries, then took him to the infirmary, before returning to hold Huo Jiayuan's hand and asking her to come to her office for a private talk.

She carried Huo Jiayuan to the office chair, while she remained squatting in front of her.

"Yuan Yuan, I wasn't blaming you just now." Song Wan smiled and whispered in her ear, "A girl is at a disadvantage in a fight with a boy!"

The little princess's eyes lit up with surprise, joy, and emotion, and tears streamed down her face.

"It's okay, it's okay!" She waved her chubby little hands, trying to reassure her teacher. "I'm not hurt. I'm really good at fighting! Teacher Song, don't worry about me!"

"Hmm." Song Wan patted her head and tidied her messy hair. "Now can you tell the teacher what happened?"

Huo Jiayuan perked up and recounted in detail how James bullied his classmates, lifted girls' skirts, and how he offended her. Finally, she proudly curled the corners of her lips and said, "Teacher Song, don't worry, this little thing is nothing in the world!"

Song Wan burst out laughing.

She knew that the little guy was usually close to his maternal grandfather, who was none other than the famous Lu Lishan. With Brother Shan taking care of the child, one could imagine how well he would raise him.

"So, besides fighting with him, do you use other methods to help your classmates get revenge?"

"Of course I did!" Huo Jiayuan said truthfully, "I told all my classmates to ignore him!"

"You...are isolating him?"

Little Yuan Yuan pouted and frowned, not quite understanding what isolation meant. But since the teacher said so, then so be it!

"Yeah, I'm just isolating him, is there a problem? Grandpa said that you shouldn't play with this kind of mixed-race bastard!"

Song Wan was sweating profusely, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

Although James went too far, the fact that Huo Jiayuan beat him up and left him with a face full of bruises today is undeniable. After this fight, even if Huo Jiayuan was in the right, he is now in the wrong.

This is what Song Wan is most worried about.

She took a deep breath, preparing to take Huo Jiayuan home first, and then discuss with the principal how to deal with James.

However, Huo Junyu was accompanying Jiang Mianmian to a prenatal checkup and couldn't come to pick up the baby. Huo Zhixing and Jiang Can had gone on vacation to Southeast Asia and weren't in Yangcheng.

Song Wan could only contact Lin Zhaojiang, and the two of them sent the child back to the Lu family together.

As soon as she entered, Lu Lishan came running over, anxiously asking his beloved granddaughter if she was injured, how strong the opponent was, and what moves they used...

Lin Yuqing coughed loudly, and Lu Lishan stopped making a fuss.

She looked up at Song Wan and Lin Zhaojiang—these two were already giving her enough headaches, and now Huo Jiayuan had joined in the fun.

I wonder what kind of person James is who fought with her, and who's backing him up...

Lin Yuqing rubbed her temples and politely asked Song Wan about the whole incident. Song Wan briefly recounted it, and Lin Zhaojiang, who was standing next to her, couldn't help but laugh so hard he almost fell over.

"Cough cough!" Lin Yuqing warned again, making sure her blood pressure was still normal.

“Yuan Yuan,” she said, looking at her granddaughter, “it’s not proper for a girl to get into fights outside…”

To everyone's surprise, Huo Jiayuan quickly chimed in: "Grandpa said that women can also make their way in the world!"

Lin Yuqing was dumbfounded.

"But... it's wrong of you to swear. How can you call your classmate a mixed-race little bastard?"

"I haven't even called him a green-haired devil yet!"

"Who taught you that?!"

“Grandpa!” Huo Jiayuan said, proudly searching for her grandfather's figure—but she didn't expect that her grandfather had already squatted behind the sofa.

Lin Yuqing's face flushed red and then turned pale. "What else did your grandfather teach you!"

Huo Jiayuan chattered, "Grandpa said that when people are hungry, they should eat; when they are sleepy, they should sleep; and when they are unhappy, they should curse!"

"Grandpa said, don't be polite to these fake foreigners! Give them three words: Just do it!"

"Oh, my grandpa also said that you were a really good fighter when you were young, grandma!"

"Pfft..." Song Wan couldn't hold it in for a long time, and covered her mouth awkwardly, turning her face to the side.

Huo Jiayuan raised her little face, looking as if she had done something to bring great honor to her ancestors, with a smug expression.

Lin Yuqing nearly choked on her breath, and after holding it in for a long time, she finally erupted in a thunderous roar: "Lu Lishan—"

Even though he hid behind the sofa, Shan Ge was still dragged out by his wife by the ear.

"Lu Lishan, what have you been teaching her?!"

"You've raised such a fine girl like this! How can we face the Huo family? How can I face Can Can?"

"Ouch, you old woman..." Lu Lishan's face turned red, and he grimaced in pain. "What's wrong? Did I teach her wrong? Girls need to be taught to be tough! Otherwise, what if she meets the wrong person and gets bullied in the future?"

"You actually have a good reason for this?"

"Otherwise what? Girls are supposed to have a bit of a temper! If you raise Yuan Yuan to be like Teacher Song, and she ends up with someone like your brother, then..."

"Lu Lishan!" Lin Yuqing couldn't take it anymore, gritting her teeth, "Would you die if you didn't say something?"

"Ouch, ouch, ouch..."

Lu Lishan realized he had said the wrong thing in his haste and quickly tried to cover it up.

Lin Zhaojiang's expression had already turned rather grim.

Song Wan looked bewildered, thinking she had misheard, and awkwardly smiled to smooth things over: "Actually... Mr. Lin is quite nice."

"Ah, yes, yes, yes!" Lu Lishan chuckled. "Very good, very good!"

Lin Yuqing pinched him and glared at him to shut him up.

Lin Zhaojiang took Song Wan home, and when they arrived at the door, he wanted to tell her about Bai Ruogu.

But I don't know how to start the conversation.

Just as Song Wan was about to say goodbye to Lin Zhaojiang, he suddenly called out to her.

"Song Wan!"

"What's up?"

"Hmm..." Lin Zhaojiang hesitated for a moment, "Has your wedding date been set?"

Song Wan's heart tightened. She didn't know why he asked that question, nor how to answer him.

She glanced at the door opposite her; it seemed like she hadn't seen Bai Ruogu in a long time.

"Don't misunderstand," Lin Zhaojiang said gently. "I don't mean anything by it. I just want to tell you that marriage is a major life event, and I hope you can consider it carefully. As for whether your fiancé is someone you can rely on for the rest of your life, you... you also need to think it through."

“Mr. Lin,” Song Wan frowned, “why are you suddenly bringing this up?”

"because……"

All the words were ready to be spoken, and Lin Zhaojiang reached into his pocket and gently squeezed the photograph.

However, at that moment, Song Wan's phone rang.
