The parent, whose tooth had been knocked out by Gong Yi, spat out blood and shouted:
"Who are you? What right do you have to hit me?"
Gong Yi punched him on the other side of his face again, knocking out another tooth.
"I am Hua Xiu Ning's father. Your children bullied my daughter, and you still have the nerve to say that? Do you really think my daughter is made of paper? Did you even bother to find out who her parents were before you started bullying her?"
"You haven't asked around, have you? Well, let me tell you right now, my daughter Hua Xiu Ning's father is the garrison commander of the Xiangcheng base, and her mother is the management commander of the Xiangcheng base. Do you understand? How many heads do you have that you dare to hit my daughter?"
Hearing what Gong Yi said, everyone realized that this person was actually the commander-in-chief of the Xiangcheng base. The parents around them all rushed over.
Someone pointed at Gong Yi and shouted, "Just because you're the commander doesn't mean you're so great! Does that give you the right to hit people? Aren't you afraid of being unworthy of your position?"
"What's it to you? The land you're standing on was built with money paid by my wife, and the supplies you're eating were all stockpiled by my wife and sold to you. Get your subordinate relationship straight. I'm not your waiter."
Gong Yi's eyes were red. Just thinking about how his sister was being bullied by so many big boys made him so angry he wanted to kill someone.
"All I know is whoever bullies my daughter, I'll beat them up! You're all bullies, aren't you? Come on, let's see who's stronger!"
"You're being unreasonable. If you're so arrogant and domineering, who will dare to be friends with your daughter in the future? Aren't you afraid that your daughter will follow your example and never be able to get married?"
A woman's voice rang out, "She had better follow suit. She has excellent parents who serve as role models for her. You yourselves said that this is the apocalypse now, who still cares about the old ways before the apocalypse?"
"Besides, does a woman have to get married if she's strong enough? Isn't it better to be beautiful on her own?"
The speaker was Hua Mi, who walked out of Xiangcheng. Behind her followed a large group of management personnel from the Xiangcheng base, including Chi Chuan and Yang Honglin.
In the end, even Qin Zhen stood behind Hua Mi.
The group of survivors, unaware of Hua Mi's identity, pointed at her and shouted, "Who are you? Who gives you the right to speak here?"
Hua Mi turned her body slightly, looking directly at the person who asked the question, "Who do you think I am?"
She was already standing at the entrance of Xiangcheng, and all the prominent management personnel of the Xiangcheng base were quietly following behind her. So, who could she be?
Everyone looked at Qin Zhen, then at Hua Mi.
Given Qin Zhen's status and position, she was already considered the second-in-command of the Xiangcheng management team.
Xiangcheng is now standing behind Hua Mi in a subordinate posture, so Hua Mi's identity is self-evident.
Besides Hua Mi, the commander of the Xiangcheng base, who else could she be?
The crowd suddenly perked up, pointing at Hua Mi and saying, "Your husband hits someone and you're not going to do anything about it?"
“I didn’t see my husband hit anyone. I only saw a father’s daughter being hurt and not receiving an apology. The children who hurt our daughter didn’t know anything about their wrongdoing, so the father was furious.”
Faced with Hua Mi's attitude, the crowd became even angrier. "Are you really that arrogant? Do you even deserve to be a commander?"
"Am I not worthy of you? Do you have as many supplies as I do? If you don't like me, you can leave the safe zone outside the Xiangcheng base. Or I can call your safe zone chief right now and have him block you all!"
Hua Mi unleashed her full power, even more ferocious than Gong Yi. Gong Yi merely attacked people and spoke arrogantly, while Hua Mi directly cut off everyone's escape route.
She truly made everyone present understand her status, and theirs!
Anyway, even if Hua Mi and Gong Yi had a dozen mouths, they still couldn't explain it clearly.
They didn't want their son and daughter to be different from others; their current reaction is the reaction any parent should have.
Any parent who knows their child is being bullied will want to storm into the other party's house and beat them to a pulp.
But they seem to be being manipulated by public opinion, or perhaps this public opinion is deliberately trying to control the couple.
Whenever they get angry, people will say that Gong Yi and Hua Mi are abusing their status to protect their daughter and that they are not raising Hua Xiu Ning well, and so on.
Why did Gong Yi and Hua Mi still try so hard to explain? Was it to prove that they hadn't abused their power?
What is the significance of this proof?
Since that's the case, then Hua Mi and Gong Yi can bully others by taking advantage of their power, how about that?
The parents surrounding Hua Mi were angry, but it was all in vain. They could only take their children back and leave, cursing and swearing.
Although they disliked Hua Mi and Gong Yi very much, there was nothing they could do; the Xiangcheng base was just the best.
The safe zone outside the Xiangcheng base is also good.
Compared to some so-called bases, even the safe zone outside the Xiangcheng base is much more formal than those bases.
It's one thing for their generation to be like this, but they can't possibly ruin their own children. Besides, the Xiangcheng base has only said that classes will be suspended, not that they don't want their children. Why should they follow those parents of the children who beat Hua Xiu Ning down a dark path?
Seeing that the situation was turning against them, the children who had bullied Hua Xiu Ning all lowered their heads.
Faced with the fact that they had become unregistered residents, they gradually realized how serious the problem was.
After a child had his ear pinched a few times by his parents and they whispered a few words in his ear, the child pushed his wheelchair to Hua Mi, looking pitiful.
"We're sorry, Auntie. We shouldn't have bullied Hua Xiu Ning. We've been punished now. Can you forgive us this time?"
Hua Mi stared at the child expressionlessly, and finally uttered a single word.
"No."
As an adult, she wouldn't hit a child; as a mother, she has the right not to forgive the children who hurt her daughter.
"Hua Mi, you can't be so heartless! The child is so young, and he has already admitted his mistake. Can't you forgive them?"
"Do you know that by rejecting them like this, you're ruining their lives?"
The parents started arguing with each other, demanding that Hua Mi forcefully forgive them and let the matter rest.
They even started using PUA tactics on Hua Mi.
Hua Mi said, "What does your child's life have to do with me? They are your children, not mine. You beat my daughter like that and still try to get my forgiveness as their mother. There's no such thing as a free lunch. You have to bear the consequences of your own crimes. Otherwise, you should think carefully before you do anything."
