Chapter 324 - 324 Tell The Truth!
324 Tell The Truth!
For a time, Matriarch Bai was dumbstruck as she watched Chu Xiaoqi.
If Bai Shanshan got cosmetic surgery, what about Chu Xiaoqi?
Bai Shanshan had a 70% resemblance to Bai Jiayao, while Chu Xiaoqi had 50%!
This was especially so for her current appearance. Chu Xiaoqi’s figure slowly fused together with the young Bai Jiayao in her memories. This was especially so given the fact that Bai Jiayao’s favorite food when he was young was apples as well!
This caused Matriarch Bai to be unable to see clearly for an instant. She was confused about whether this vision she was seeing was in the past or present.
She even took a step forward and subconsciously wanted to embrace Chu Xiaoqi and gently coax her.
But at this moment, Shen Wanying took a step forward. She first looked at Bai Yitong and inspected his body. After confirming that he was fine, she then heaved a sigh of relief.
Next, she looked at the teacher at the side and asked, “What’s going on?”
The teacher frowned. “Student Bai Yitong tripped Student Chu Xiaoqi.”
As the sound of her voice faded, Bai Yitong immediately cocked his head and spoke arrogantly, “I didn’t do so intentionally!”
When the kindergarten teacher heard this, she involuntarily turned to Dean Lin.
This special kindergarten had always treated the students fairly. Earlier, the teacher saw Bai Yitong’s action clearly.
He was merely five years old, yet he already knew how to perfectly conceal his emotions and actions?
Bai Yitong’s sneaky look had long since been seen by the teacher.
This teacher was named Teacher Xing. She had never favored kids from powerful backgrounds and would reflect the truth of the situation to the parents. In addition, the influential families in the capital mutually knew that it wasn’t easy to deal with each other.
After all, it was highly possible for each family to be connected via marriage alliances.
This was why the school had always been peaceful.
There were occasionally cases of children being naughty, but the parents of the bullied children wouldn’t seriously pursue it as things were not very critical.
However, Bai Yitong’s action today was something that Teacher Xing had never seen before. After all, one of Chu Xiaoqi’s front teeth was knocked out, and she would surely have a lisp if she spoke due to air escaping from the gap!
Unfortunately, the Bai Family was special, and Dean Lin and Matriarch Bai were best friends. So, Teacher Xing truly didn’t know if she should pursue this.
Just when she was feeling conflicted, Dean Lin took a step forward and frowned. “Speak the truth!”
Bai Yitong would never admit it.
Dean Lin solemnly looked at Teacher Xing and said, “Tell us what you saw.”
She showed completely no signs of favoritism.
Teacher Xing hurriedly said, “Bai Yitong did this intentionally.”
As she said this, Bai Yitong immediately wanted to rebut.
However, Dean Lin looked straight at him. Her kind expression actually exuded an imposing might despite her not being angry. “Child, lying will make your nose grow longer~”
Bai Yitong immediately felt a little scared.
He pouted his lips before shouting out, “Who told her to steal my slot? She scored zero points, so why is she qualified to be more impressive than me?”
After he shouted this, Bai Yitong immediately hid behind Shen Wanying and tugged at her shirt. After that, he poked his head out and ruthlessly glared at Chu Xiaoqi. “I’m a direct descendant of the Bai Family, yet you actually dared to snatch something that belongs to me? You deserve this!”
Chu Xiaoqi basically didn’t hear anything. She continued to bawl loudly.
The doctors stationed in the kindergarten had arrived and were dressing her wound. Although her face was a little bruised, it wasn’t serious. A doctor was using iodophor to disinfect the injuries.
Chu Tianye, Chu Yu, and Chu Xiaomeng who had social phobia stood beside her. The three of them were anxiously looking at Xiaoqi.
Chu Tianye. “Xiaoqi, don’t cry anymore…Be good.”
Chu Yu. “Is it very painful? I’ll get my mommy to give you a medicinal paste. Once you apply it, you won’t feel pain anymore!”
Chu Xiaomeng pondered and eventually passed her dinosaur soft toy to Chu Xiaoqi. “It won’t be painful once you hug it!”
Every time there were a lot of people, she would hug her dinosaur soft toy tightly and then would feel a boundless sense of security!
As the three consoled her, Chu Xiaoqi gradually stopped crying.
She stretched out a pudgy hand and rubbed her eyes. After that, she looked at the apple in her hand and wanted to take a bite out of it. However, he was soon stopped by the meticulous Chu Yu. “Xiaoqi, one of your front teeth has been knocked out. You cannot eat apples!”
Chu Xiaoqi was dumbfounded. After that, she lifted her head and started crying even more miserably!
(I no longer have front teeth, so I can no longer chew on my favorite apples? Boohoohoo!)
The three children. “???”
Dean Lin Yi also quickly crouched down and consoled Chu Xiaoqi. When she finally stopped crying, Dean Lin Ye then looked at Bai Yitong. “Student Bai Yitong, you have to apologize to Chu Xiaoqi!”
However, Bai Yitong lifted his head. “Never! She snatched my slot first! That’s why I tripped her!”
Dean Lin Yi frowned.
At this moment, she suddenly regretted requesting one more slot for Bai Yitong.
If there were only three slots, how could something like this happen?
In addition, Bai Yitong was clearly spoiled. He was too unreasonable!
However, Dean Lin Yi also couldn’t punish the child, so she could only look at Shen Wanying.
Shen Wanying looked at Chu Xiaoqi. The latter’s face was dirty from tear stains, and there was also iodophor smeared on it, causing it to look even filthier.
Shen Wanying furrowed her brows in disdain before saying, “Xiaoqi, Little Tong is insensible. I’ll educate him properly after returning home.”
After saying that, Shen Wanying contemplated and took out her wallet, removing a wad of cash from it. She then handed the money to Chu Xiaoqi. “This is a token of our sincerity and can be considered compensation for your medical fees and psychological damage.”
Upon hearing this, Dean Lin Yi stared at Shen Wanying in disbelief.
Although she already knew this person was a hypocrite, she still felt that Shen Wanying’s current actions were simply too much!
She spoke unhappily, “Madam Shen, this isn’t too good…”
However, Shen Wanying stood up.
Ever since Dean Lin Yi invited Sparton for the sake of Shen Ruojing’s children, Shen Wanying was already very dissatisfied with the dean in her heart. Now, she couldn’t be bothered to fawn over the dean anymore and directly spoke in a gentle tone, “Dean Lin, what do you think we should do then?”
Lin Yi. “Bai Yitong should apologize to Chu Xiaoqi.”
Shen Wanying then pushed Bai Yitong forward. “Little Tong, apologize then.”
“Oh, sorry.” Bai Yitong rolled his eyes and apologized in an insincere manner. Everyone could tell his apology wasn’t from the bottom of his heart.
Shen Wanying then looked at Dean Lin Yi and passed the money to Chu Xiaoqi. However, Chu Xiaoqi didn’t take it, so Shen Wanying stuffed the money into Dean Lin’s hands. “Little Tong has apologized, and we have compensated for the medical fees and psychological damage. I believe $20,000 is enough. If Xiaoqi’s parents feel this is insufficient, we can always add more.”
Shen Wanying looked sincere, but her words were very shameless. “Dean Lin, do you think this is acceptable? If not, why don’t you propose a solution?”
Lin Yi. “??”
She immediately felt anger rising in her heart.
However, she choked.
This was originally something between children. Shen Wanying and Bai Yitong knew this and thus had compensated money.
But why would she feel so aggrieved?
Moreover, if they didn’t accept this, what could they do? Call the police?
Even if the police came, this was probably the only method of resolution.
Right now, Dean Lin Yi felt so stifled as though there was something clenching her heart.
