Chapter 603: Chapter 633: Do You Have Some Misunderstanding About Being Timid
Xiao Shi shook her head.
Qin Jiao sighed in relief. She turned to the class teacher and said, "Kids their age are just starting to have their first crushes. I’ll have to ask you to pay more attention to this in the future. My sister is timid, and I don’t want her getting bullied at school."
The class teacher actually wasn’t much older than Qin Jiao. When she remembered the boy who had been beaten up by Qin Shi, she didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
’I mean, do you have some kind of misunderstanding of the word ’timid’?’
However, faced with the parent’s request, the class teacher immediately nodded. Besides, this incident was her oversight, so she’d have to pay more attention to the issue of puppy love in her class from now on.
With the issue resolved, Qin Shi had to go back to class. Qin Jiao and Su Yun exchanged a few more words with the teacher before heading out.
As it turned out, Qin Jiao ran right into Meng Lanlan in the hallway.
Last time they’d spoken, Meng Lanlan had mentioned she taught high school, and Qin Jiao hadn’t thought much of it. But now it seemed the school itself must have both high school and middle school divisions.
Since they had run into each other, Qin Jiao gave Meng Lanlan a gracious nod and brushed past her.
Meng Lanlan bit her lip, her expression complicated.
At that moment, Qin Shi’s class teacher asked curiously, "Teacher Meng, do you know that person who was just here? She said she graduated from North City University’s law school. I wonder if that’s true."
"It’s true." Although Meng Lanlan was at odds with Qin Jiao, she had to admit that the woman was genuinely brilliant and talented.
"After she graduated, if she hadn’t gone back to run her family’s businesses, she would have excelled in any field."
The class teacher was stunned for a few seconds before finally saying, "Even for a graduate of North City University, she shouldn’t be so... commanding. In the office just now, her presence was so powerful. It was just like... the tone the principal uses when he holds meetings with us."
Meng Lanlan said with a wry smile, "Well, that makes sense. After all, her family owns more than one company, and she has two just in her own name."
"What?!"
The class teacher was shocked. ’She never imagined Qin Shi’s family was that wealthy!’
Meanwhile, that evening, Liu Zhao—the boy Qin Shi had beaten up—was at the dinner table, wolfing down his food. Mrs. Liu, who had been thoroughly put in her place earlier that day, was pouting angrily. Mr. Liu looked from his son to his wife and asked curiously, "What’s gotten into you two today? Oh, right, who exactly hit Liu Zhao?"
Mrs. Liu sneered, "Ask him yourself!"
Liu Zhao looked up and said with a grin, "I was beaten up by your future daughter-in-law."
Father Liu was completely bewildered.
The couple had Liu Zhao in their thirties and doted on him as the apple of their eye. They were a dual-income family and quite well-off, so once Liu Zhao got into university, getting married would surely be no problem.
’But the little rascal is only in his third year of middle school!’
Father Liu immediately guessed. "Did you bully some poor girl, and then she beat you up?"
Liu Zhao’s eyes widened. "Dad, you’re psychic!"
Mrs. Liu rolled her eyes and sneered from the side. "In your dreams! A classless little girl like that? I would never let her become my daughter-in-law! And judging by her family’s behavior, they’re no better. They’ll definitely be difficult to deal with!"
The words had barely left her mouth when a commercial came on the TV. It was for Jiuyi, a clothing brand that had become very popular in recent years.
Liu Zhao, annoyed by his mother’s comments, pointed at the television. "Mom, can you please stop going on about how they have no class? Do you have any idea who the owner of the Jiuyi Clothing Company in this commercial is?"
