In Wen Muyun's office, three parents led three students to sit on either side.
Although she came to "seek justice," her gaze kept sweeping over the man sitting on the only guest sofa in the office, and she felt uneasy.
To be honest, when the parents saw the injuries on their son yesterday, their first reaction was anger, and they immediately wanted to find someone to seek justice for their son.
But after hearing their own little devil recount the cause, process, and outcome of the incident in a half-hearted and intermittent manner, and learning that the person who beat someone up was the wife and daughter of the now-prosperous Qin family, the parents' desire for justice immediately subsided.
Parents know their own child best, and even if the child's explanation is vague, the parents can guess that the problem originated with their own child.
If it were an ordinary family, they could naturally use money and power to intimidate and coerce others, but the other party is the Qin family... and Qin Sheng, the eldest daughter of the Qin family who took action, is the fiancée of Fu Jingheng of the Fu family.
Let's save our breath.
Anyway, it's just some superficial injuries, consider it a lesson learned.
So the parents, after giving their kids a good scolding and a bit of coaxing, decided to let the matter drop.
Unexpectedly, while they were preparing to stop there, some people were unwilling to let the matter rest.
This morning, around six o'clock, the parents of all three parties received a call from the Lu family's housekeeper.
Without explicitly stating anything, they only asked a couple of questions about how they planned to resolve the matter.
But the parents were all prominent figures in the world; how could they not understand the meaning behind the housekeeper's words? He was telling them to cause trouble at the school!
To be honest, everyone was unwilling, after all, the Qin family and the Fu family were not easy to mess with, and no one wanted to offend anyone too badly over this matter.
But the Qin and Fu families are not to be offended, and the Lu family is no better!
After discussing and deliberating for half an hour, everyone agreed to attend.
After all, the Lu family has made it clear that Lu Heng will personally come forward, but from the Qin family's side, it's highly likely that Qin Zhao's parents will be the ones to come.
As long as Fu Jingheng doesn't show up in person, everything is fine...
Thinking this, the three parents exchanged glances. One of them, a male parent with a beer belly, stepped forward and said in a deep voice, "Teacher Wen, are you sure the person is already on their way? It's been half an hour, why haven't they arrived yet?"
Wen Muyun: "..."
If she hadn't been a teacher for over a decade and hadn't developed professional ethics, she really wanted to roll her eyes at the other person on the spot.
Half an hour?
Don't they even know what time it is, or what kind of place Tiandu is?
During the morning rush hour, when there's a traffic jam, it might take half an hour to even get through one street. How could you possibly get to school on a whim?
Wen Muyun maintained her smile and said in a neither soft nor hard tone, "During the morning rush hour, it's common to spend an hour or two getting out of the house. It's all my fault for not giving advance notice and having Qin Zhao's parents come over at the last minute."
The beer-bellied parent's expression changed slightly.
Wen Muyun said this to blame herself, but how could the parents not understand that she was actually blaming them?
Without giving her any prior notice, they immediately asked her to contact Qin Zhao's parents to call for help.
Since it was all a last-minute decision, we should just wait patiently, whether it's an hour or two!
The beer-bellied parent opened his mouth as if to say something, but looking at Wen Muyun's gentle, smiling face, all the words of rebuttal and rebuttal stuck in his throat.
In the end, they could only reluctantly retreat.
Lu Heng, who had been sitting on the sofa with his arms crossed, glanced at Wen Muyun, but only for a moment before looking away and continuing to wait quietly.
His expression was calm and composed.
But where no one could see, his palms were damp with sweat.
Another half hour passed, and not only the parents, who were already busy with other things, but even the students were getting impatient.
Pairs of eyes kept peering towards the doorway.
She really wanted to say, "Maybe we should just forget about it," but when she saw Lu Heng's calm expression, she swallowed the words back.
Amidst everyone's eager anticipation, two figures finally appeared in sight after turning a corner on the stairs.
Everyone paused for a moment.
The two who arrived were a young man and a woman, both very good-looking.
The two arrived side by side, their beauty breathtaking, and they immediately captured everyone's attention upon their appearance.
It was Qin Sheng and Fu Jingheng.
Wait... Fu Jingheng?
Everyone except Lu Heng and Wen Muyun snapped out of their daze and looked at each other with surprise and uncertainty.
The parents, in particular, were so frightened that they staggered.
I really didn't expect that Fu Jingheng would actually come along!
First there was the eldest son of the Lu family, who was actually in charge, and now there's the third son of the Fu family, who has the highest popularity.
Weren't the heirs of these top wealthy families supposed to be so busy that they don't even have time to eat or go to the bathroom? How come they all rushed over for something as trivial as a children's fight?
Are they all fake?
The three parents, already anxious, became even more uneasy. Their eyes darted back and forth between Lu Heng and Fu Jingheng, and they had a vague feeling that they were innocent bystanders caught in the crossfire.
This is way too difficult...
Only Lu Heng was not surprised.
He glanced at Fu Jingheng, then at Qin Sheng beside Fu Jingheng, his gaze shifted, and for the first time stood up from his seat.
He extended his left hand to Fu Jingheng and nodded slightly: "Young Master Fu."
Fu Jingheng looked down at the hand in front of him. The knuckles were distinct, the hand was long and wide, but the palm was tinged with a light red.
He raised an eyebrow slightly, but did not reach out.
She didn't even look at Lu Heng.
She looked up and her gaze fell on the young boy in the corner of the office. She beckoned to him and said, "Qin Zhaozhao, come here."
Qin Zhao lifted her eyelids and glanced at him, pursing her lips in displeasure, but still followed his instructions and went up to him.
Fu Jingheng raised his hand and tapped him on the head, reminding him patiently, "Call someone."
Qin Zhao: "..."
Is this person toxic?
How deep is this obsession with how someone addresses another person? Can't they even say it once less?
Fu Jingheng said: No.
Only after repeatedly confirming that the man who was sometimes a green tea b*tch and sometimes a white lotus was his daughter's younger brother could he resist the urge to strangle him.
Seeing that the boy was staring at him without saying a word, Fu Jingheng wasn't angry. He just raised an eyebrow at him and asked, "Hmm?"
He seemed determined not to give up until he shouted.
Qin Zhao: "...Sister, brother-in-law."
Fu Jingheng's expression softened instantly.
Then, holding Qin Sheng's hand with one hand and putting his arm around Qin Zhao's shoulder with the other, he walked into the office.
As for Lu Heng, who was blocking his way... he ignored him.
The curve of Lu Heng's lips slowly stiffened.
