Jiang Xin went to the bookstore and bought a few books before returning home, only to find that her father and brother were not home.
Before she came back, she had already thought it through. She couldn't hide the fact that Yanling was harassing her from her mother; she needed her mother's help.
Shu Yuqing felt extremely uncomfortable whenever she saw her daughter, and for the first time ever, she even felt a bit embarrassed.
She comforted herself, thinking, "So what if the child likes to pick his toes? It's not a big deal. I wouldn't do that outside!"
There's no need to lecture her over such a small thing. Our daughter is all grown up, and it's perfectly fine for her to have a few quirks.
Just as I was mentally preparing myself, I saw my daughter give me a fawning smile.
Shu Yuqing: "..."
She tried hard to get the smile on her child's face out of her mind, and told herself that she couldn't say that about Xin Xin. How could she use the word "sycophant" to describe her daughter?
She forced a smile and replied to her daughter, "Xin Xin, did you buy the book?"
"I bought it, Mom. I want to talk to you about something."
"What is it? Tell me."
"Here's what happened. Yesterday, when I came home from school, a male classmate stopped me and said he wanted me to be his girlfriend."
What?! This is outrageous! Who's the audacious kid who did this?!
Shu Yuqing tried her best to appear gentle and unassuming, and asked in a soft tone, "And then? What do you want to do?"
It's a good thing that Xin Xin is being honest with herself; she can't let her daughter down.
Besides, the fact that she told herself this meant that she didn't like that boy and might even be bothered by it.
Jiang Xin recounted everything that had happened at school to her mother, including why she wanted to change classes.
Shu Yuqing sneered inwardly: "Ha, what nonsense! Just because Xinxin is your classmate, does that mean you should be able to set her up with her brother? What a big mouth you have!"
And that boy named Yanling, a petty thug, dares to covet her Xinxin! Looks like she has to do something. Maybe she should transfer Xinxin to another school.
"Mom, you don't know, that boy has a terrible reputation at school. He's always getting into fights, skipping classes, and smoking. As soon as I went to class, some female classmates warned me to be careful of him."
Every time I see him, I just greet him normally and don't say a single unnecessary word to him. I don't understand where his confidence comes from!
Whenever Yan Ling is mentioned, Jiang Xin can't help but start complaining. That guy is like a piece of chewing gum, impossible to shake off!
"So I came up with a solution."
"Could you go to the school and talk to the principal about your desire to sponsor two students from impoverished families? As far as I know, Yanling's family is in dire straits. His father has passed away, and his mother doesn't care about him. He is currently living with his uncle and aunt."
After saying that, Jiang Xin let out a chuckle. Shu Yuqing was about to remind her to be dignified, but seeing her daughter's bright smile, she ultimately didn't say anything.
I used to arrange her life in a very orderly manner and give her the best of everything, but even so, she rarely smiled at me. When I saw her, I was like a mouse seeing a cat, and I was even cautious when I spoke to her.
Moreover, Xin Xin is now actually willing to share her feelings with me and even asks for my help, which was almost impossible before.
Well, Xin Xin is fine as she is now. Although she used to look dignified and elegant on the surface, she lacked the youthful liveliness that a little girl should have.
Instead of lecturing her, Shu Yuqing asked, "You want your mother to sponsor Yanling, right?"
Jiang Xin nodded repeatedly: "Yes, Mom. Our Ye family is charitable, so isn't it normal for us to sponsor impoverished students? Don't underestimate him just because he has nothing. He's arrogant and has a strong sense of self-esteem. If you offer to sponsor him, that hoodlum will definitely be shocked and won't come looking for me again!"
Jiang Xin revealed this method after careful consideration. She had mentioned that her mother had apparently used dishonest means against Yanling for her sake.
Regardless of whether what she said was true or false, why dirty her mother's hands to deal with someone like Yanling? As long as she publicly offered to sponsor Yanling, she only needed to put on a superior attitude in front of him to make him lose face.
Yanling, you've delivered yourself right to my doorstep, so don't blame me for being ruthless!
