That day, Ji Xiaoxiao and Yunming's parents were called in.
He Fan rushed over, breathless, fearing that if he wasted even a second, his daughter would suffer a great injustice.
"Teacher Liao, who bullied my daughter?"
Your own child is always the best.
Liao Kongmin coughed and said, "Mr. He, please sit down and rest for a while. Mr. Li will arrive in a little while. Once everyone is here, I will explain everything clearly."
He Fan responded with a hoarse "okay," then picked up a glass of water and drank it all.
Another half hour passed before Mr. Li arrived.
Both sets of parents came, and Liao Kongmin told them about Ji Xiaoxiao and Yunming.
Upon hearing this, He Fan remained silent, carefully examining Yun Ming and silently making his own comments.
"Appearance: 60/10"
Yunming was young, but his appearance was just beginning to show; he had delicate features and was quite handsome.
"Family background, 60 points."
The Li family is a century-old prominent family in City A, with businesses spanning various industries. Moreover, the Li family has always been devoted to their members, and each generation consists of legitimate sons and grandsons.
Based on just a few meetings, Yunming's impression on He Fan was barely passing.
"Mr. He, Mr. Li, students dating is detrimental to their studies. For the sake of their future development, you should make a clean break, otherwise you will only cause more trouble," Liao Kongmin said earnestly.
He Fan put down his cup and stared straight at Liao Kongmin. "Teacher Liao, my daughter Xiao Nian came to school to broaden her horizons and learn right from wrong, not to have her nature and interests suppressed by you. I, He Fan, worked hard back then so that my child wouldn't suffer. Now that I'm rich and powerful, my child can't even date. You force her to learn this and that, and tell her not to touch this and not to touch that. If I brought my child into this world just so she could suffer and be unhappy, then I've failed as a father."
Mr. Li crossed his legs, placed his hands on his knees, and said calmly with a cold face, "Teacher Liao, my son Yunming is naturally intelligent. He completed his high school coursework on his own two years ago and is now studying business management."
The implication is that Yunming's romantic relationship does not interfere with his studies.
Liao Kongmin was stunned by what He Fan and Mr. Li said. Normal parents would scold and beat their children when they heard that they were dating. Why didn't it work for them?
Since Ji Xiaoxiao's parents don't object to her being with Yunming, what can Liao Kongmin say?
Liao Kongmin opened his mouth helplessly, but Yunming spoke first, "Teacher Liao, Uncle He, Dad, He and I are not in a relationship. You've all misunderstood."
Yunming's expression was indifferent, neither elated by external gains nor saddened by personal losses, much like a person of noble character.
“We are a couple,” Ji Xiaoxiao stood up and emphasized.
Yunming bowed to the elders present, then pushed open the door and walked out.
Meaningless things are not worth wasting time on.
As Ji Xiaoxiao watched Yun Ming leave, her taut nerves snapped.
Ji Xiaoxiao rushed out, leaped onto Yunming's back, wrapped her arms around his neck, and quickly wrapped her legs around his waist, clinging to him like a koala.
"I love you, I love you, I love you..."
Ji Xiaoxiao kept telling Yunming her feelings. At first, Yunming resisted, but gradually, he let Ji Xiaoxiao do whatever she wanted.
"Xiao Nian, come down quickly." He Fan came out of the office and saw Ji Xiaoxiao shamelessly pestering him.
He Fan was secretly angry and annoyed. He didn't mind his daughter dating, but Ji Xiaoxiao's pursuit was unsuccessful, and she even clung to him, making the He family lose face. He Fan could no longer tolerate it.
"He Nianzhi!" He Fan roared.
The commotion grew louder and louder, and teachers and students alike began to sneak around watching, disregarding the fact that class was in session.
Ji Xiaoxiao wasn't someone who cared about appearances; let outsiders look if they wanted. In her heart, her lover was more important than the world.
"I know you are Yunming, why won't you acknowledge me?"
Why won't you acknowledge me? Why did you abandon me?
Ji Xiaoxiao felt a deep sadness; her warm blood suddenly turned as cold as snow, and with each heartbeat, flesh and blood gushed out.
“I am Li Yunming, He Tongxue, you have mistaken me for someone else,” Yunming insisted.
“I haven’t mistaken you for someone else, you are Yunming.”
Ji Xiaoxiao has no evidence to prove that Li Yunming is Yunming, but after being in love for so many years, how could Ji Xiaoxiao not be able to tell who is real and who is fake?
When it comes to matters of the heart, the one who tied the knot must untie it.
He Fan watched coldly for a while, and seeing that Ji Xiaoxiao didn't know what was good for her, he angrily pulled Ji Xiaoxiao off and slapped her across the face.
"Wake up! He doesn't love you, so why are you shamelessly throwing yourself at him? You are my daughter, He Fan's daughter." You are my daughter, He Fan's daughter, but you can be shameless, but you can't be without self-respect; you can be cruel to others, but you can't hurt yourself; you can live recklessly, but don't forget that you are a human being.
He Fan's slap woke Ji Xiaoxiao up.
Ji Xiaoxiao stood in front of Yun Ming and said coldly, "Do you really want to do this?"
Yunming looked back at Ji Xiaoxiao, his eyes indifferent and cold. "You forced me to do this."
Ji Xiaoxiao pushed Yunming, who was blocking the way, and left the crowded corridor.
Stepping out of the school gates, Ji Xiaoxiao found herself lost and disoriented in the vast world, unsure of where to call home. She stood motionless amidst the bustling traffic, feeling utterly lost.
"Xiao Nian." Remembering the suicide attempt, He Fan quickly chased after her.
"Dad, I'm sorry," Ji Xiaoxiao said, her eyes red.
He Fan took Ji Xiaoxiao's hand; his broad, warm palm made Ji Xiaoxiao feel very comforted.
The He family.
He Fan gave Ji Xiaoxiao a princess carry, who was still sobbing occasionally while sleeping. Ji Xiaobai saw this and hurriedly came over to ask what was wrong. He Fan then stopped Ji Xiaobai.
After putting Ji Xiaoxiao on the bed, covering her with the blanket, and closing the door, He Fan sighed and confided in Ji Xiaobai about the terrible things that had happened that day.
At night, Ji Xiaoxiao slept very restlessly, waving her hands in the air as if trying to grab something.
"It's alright, I'm here."
