Throughout the shopping process, the phone remained in the bag, carried by Sister Wan.
She was in high spirits, showing off subtly and modestly to everyone she met, clearly immersed in the role of a successful mother.
When the WeChat message from Wenling arrived, Aunt Wan glanced at the notification but didn't pay much attention to it.
It wasn't until Ding Huizhu stopped to rest at a dessert shop after shopping that she saw the furious WeChat message.
Ding Huizhu's brow twitched violently; the joy she had just felt was like a bucket of cold water being poured over her head.
Seeing that Ding Huizhu's expression was off, Sister Wan dared to glance at the WeChat message and was immediately startled.
"What... what has Miss Xie Li done now? Oh dear, she has completely offended Teacher Wen! What should we do?"
She spoke urgently, but her eyes kept glancing at Ding Huizhu out of the corner of her eye, waiting for Ding Huizhu to unleash her fury.
Ding Huizhu's expression was also not good, but she put down her phone: "This child is indeed too stubborn, I don't know who he takes after."
Sister Wan was taken aback. Ding Huizhu wasn't angry at all?
Ding Huizhu smiled and nodded to the noblewoman who had just left after saying goodbye. The lady had flattered Ding Huizhu quite a bit, her words as sweet as honey, making Ding Huizhu feel like she was the center of attention.
After the noblewoman had walked away, she turned her head and said, "Xie Li's personality has been spoiled by that peasant couple. Our Ding and Xie families have such strong genes. Sigh."
Sister Wan felt she had been with Ding Huizhu for half her life, but she really couldn't figure out what Ding Huizhu's current situation was.
"Madam, should we still go see Teacher Wen tomorrow?"
"Go ahead, of course I'll go!" Ding Huizhu said with a smile. "Xie Li is my own daughter after all. She's immature, and as her mother, I have to clean up her messes."
"By the way, you'll come with me tomorrow. Be humble and show our apology and sincerity."
"I just checked with someone, and this teacher from Wenling is a specially appointed teacher at Linjiang No. 1 Middle School. He's a very talented person, and it's never wrong for us to be on good terms with him..."
Ding Huizhu appeared calm and enthusiastic, but Sister Wan's heart skipped a beat.
While Ding Huizhu was in the restroom, she used her phone to make a call to the Ding family.
After receiving the phone call, Ding Ruoxu's face was ashen.
Grandma Ding couldn't hold back any longer; she had overheard something from the side.
"What did Sister Wan just say? That good-for-nothing actually got first place in the country?"
Old Mrs. Ding was old, her face was full of wrinkles, her eyes were still inverted triangles, and her appearance looked fierce, bearing no resemblance whatsoever to Ding Huizhu's gentleness.
She clearly didn't believe it, her face darkening: "Could it be that you've done something again?"
Ding Ruoxu turned around and helped her sit down, remaining relatively rational: "It's unlikely. The joint exam papers for this year's exams were all sealed and delivered to each school the night before, where they were handed over to designated personnel for cross-safekeeping. The possibility of a leak is slim."
Grandma Ding became anxious upon hearing this, "What about Ziyuan's birthday banquet? Will it be affected? I don't want to be forced to accept a country girl as my niece."
Ding Ruoxu: "Probably not. That guy is inherently rebellious and has offended Wen Ling, the head teacher of the elite class at Linjiang No. 1 Middle School. I'm afraid things won't end well for him."
The Ding family has deep-rooted connections in the education sector and is also familiar with Wenling.
If this matter isn't handled properly, it could lead to enmity.
However, he had no interest in reminding Ding Huizhu. He wanted Ding Huizhu to suffer a setback so that she would know who her real family was.
