The young girl was firmly hidden from view by the man, who was mysterious and terrifying, exuding a menacing aura. He treated everyone in the private room as if they were invisible, and no one dared to peek at him.
He picked up the little girl horizontally. She was so short that when he wrapped her in his suit jacket, almost half of her body was no longer visible. She looked like a black silkworm cocoon, which he held with ease.
The man even moved his arm to let her move to a more comfortable position and snuggle into his arms.
Seeing that the two were about to leave, Professor Tang and his wife became anxious. Unable to hold back, Mrs. Tang stepped forward and looked worriedly at Tongsu in the man's arms: "Where...where are you taking her?"
For some reason, seeing the little girl crying so miserably tugged at her heartstrings, making it hard for her to breathe.
Professor Tang was relatively calmer, protecting his wife and glaring warily at the man: "Who exactly are you? Where are you taking her? What is your relationship with her?!"
For some inexplicable reason, Professor Tang felt no liking for this man. Looking at him, she felt a sense of anger, as if her own precious treasure had been taken away, and she picked on him in every way possible.
The cocoon in the man's arms stirred, and Tongsu tried to crawl out. The man held her with one arm and gently patted her with the other: "Your face is all smeared with tears, you look awful. Are you sure you want to come out?"
The silkworm cocoon suddenly froze.
A cold light flickered in the man's deep eyes as he said calmly, "I am... her brother."
The silkworm cocoon struggled briefly, as if in protest.
"From now on, her guardianship will be transferred to me. Tongtong has something to do tonight, so I'll take her with me first. I'll host a banquet for everyone in a few days when it's more convenient, as an apology."
The silkworm cocoon trembled.
"Also, I'm very grateful to everyone for taking care of my Tongtong. However, I don't want anyone to reveal even a single thing about what happened today."
He left without another word, abandoning his cold, deep voice, and turned to leave with Tongsu in his arms.
The master sitting at the head of the table frowned. Suddenly, he received a call from the principal. He answered the call with a cold face, held it to his ear, paused for a few words, and then his expression changed drastically.
The man had already left. Some of the faster students ran to the windows and whispered, "Maybach! That man got into a Maybach with Tongyang—"
Who is that person?
"So handsome, so domineering..."
What is his relationship with Tongyang?
Amidst the chattering noise, the master spoke up, his voice deep and resonant: "Stop discussing."
Professor Tang, unwilling to give up, asked, "Professor Chen, what exactly is this man—"
Old Chen said, "I just received a call from the principal. He knows Tongyang and can take good care of her. Don't ask any more questions. In short, since he's planning to help, Tongyang is absolutely safe."
Seeing that everyone was still puzzled, Old Chen said sternly, "In short, no one is allowed to ask about this matter again, and it is absolutely forbidden to spread it outside, understand?!"
"yes……"
Tong Su was unaware of the commotion unfolding inside the private room. At that moment, she was curled up in the car seat, while the man gripped the reel and drove very fast.
"After Tang Yaoguang assaulted someone, he slipped out to drink. I've already had him arrested. It's difficult to get a criminal sentence for domestic violence these days, so I'm going to arrange for someone to prosecute him for intentional assault. Hua Ping is in the hospital; it's just superficial injuries, nothing serious, she'll recover soon."
Tang Yaoguang is Tang's father, and Hua Ping is Tang's mother.
Tong Su raised her head, fiercely wiped away the remaining tears in her eyes, and pursed her lips: "Thank you."
"There's no need to thank me."
"You helped me."
The man's thin lips curved into a slight smile, and he said meaningfully, "It's nothing. You saved me first. I can't repay your life-saving grace, so how about I repay you with my body?"
