When Liu Mei got home, she saw a house full of people and overheard her son fighting. After these past few days, her mood had calmed down a lot, but as soon as she heard that Fang Ning had caused trouble, she couldn't stop talking.
"How many times have I told you, our family is poor, so don't cause trouble outside, and if someone hits you, don't fight back!"
The adults all looked at Liu Mei with surprise.
“Ahem, I am Shao Zhijie’s parent.” A man spoke up. “I also asked Shao Zhijie, and it is true that he ordered people to beat Fang Ning first, but he did not lay a hand on her. Fang Ning also hit him. I am here to discuss how to resolve this matter.”
Liu Mei glared at Fang Ning, her eyes wide with disappointment, and raised her hand to slap him. Just as the slap was about to land, Fang Zhiyi pulled Fang Ning away, and Director Huang also stopped Liu Mei.
“Children need to be properly educated, and you can’t hit or scold them, right?” Director Huang reassured. “The main reason I’m here today is to discuss this matter. You parents should discuss it among yourselves.”
Liu Mei could tell from just one glance at Shao Zhijie's clothes that his family was wealthy, and she immediately became uneasy: "How about we take the child to the hospital to get checked out?"
Shao Zhijie's parents smiled: "We just wanted to clarify this matter. My son has already gone to the hospital for a check-up."
"I'm so sorry," Liu Mei apologized.
"It's alright, it's alright. It's just kids playing around. The parents can talk it out."
Seeing that the two sides had reached an agreement, Director Huang got up to leave, saying, "Also, Fang Ning, what you did had a very bad impact. Make a tally of how much money you received and return it all to everyone!"
Fang Ning bit her lip and remained silent.
After a long silence, Fang Zhiyi spoke up: "Wait a minute, I have something else to say."
Everyone turned to look at him. Fang Zhiyi smiled at the others first, then stared at Shao Zhijie's parents: "So, I demand that your son apologize to my son, is that alright?"
Everyone was stunned, including Fang Ning. Fang Ning slowly raised her head and looked at her father with disbelief.
"Excuse me, what did you say?"
Fang Zhiyi repeated, word by word, "I said, make your son apologize to my son."
"Mr. Fang, you..." Director Huang was somewhat surprised.
“If my son hurt your son, I’m willing to pay any amount of money. But as you know, your son started it. I think it’s only right that he apologizes to my son. As for the rest, I will teach him a lesson.”
"Fang Zhiyi! Are you sick in the head?" Liu Mei was furious again. She had finally managed to smooth things over, and this man was causing trouble again!
The man was stunned for a moment, then suddenly laughed: "Okay!"
Fang Zhiyi smiled and said, "Then how about I treat your child to a meal and let them talk it out themselves?"
The man looked Fang Zhiyi up and down, shook his head, then nodded: "Okay, my name is Shao Qianjun, and your name is Fang Zhiyi, right?" He extended his hand, and Fang Zhiyi shook it.
Fang Ning was still in shock. Could her father really say such a thing?
Liu Mei was also shocked. What was going on? But when she looked at Fang Ning, she gritted her teeth in resentment.
