Chapter 221: Chapter 221: Apologize if You Can’t Afford to Offend

"Honey, what did the police station say? Are you on the way?"

"Tell them to bring more people; this guy’s a thug. He must be brought to justice."

"And that kid, he’ll definitely be up to no good when he grows up."

Li Dongli leaned in to inquire of Dong Sheng.

Dong Sheng’s entire body trembled, then he swiftly turned around and slapped her.

Li Dongli had never expected Dong Sheng to hit her, especially not with almost all his strength.

The whole classroom fell silent, everyone’s eyes filled with confusion.

They truly hadn’t anticipated this situation.

Weren’t this couple united against a common enemy just moments ago?

How had Dong Sheng changed so quickly after picking up a phone call and started hitting Li Dongli?

"Dong Sheng, what are you doing? Are you out of your mind?" Li Dongli covered her face, her eyes fierce.

"I’m out of my mind? You’re the one who’s freaking crazy!"

"Let me tell you, Li Dongli, I’ve tolerated you for a long time. All you do is cause trouble for me day in and day out."

"Go and apologize immediately, or we’re getting a divorce this afternoon."

Dong Sheng pointed at Li Dongli, his emotions running high and his face filled with anger.

Lu Xiao didn’t even glance at the couple; his gaze and attention were entirely focused on Ali.

Of course, he had probably guessed Dong Sheng’s move already—Dong Sheng had just called the police station, presumably realizing he couldn’t afford to mess with Lu Xiao, so he pulled this stunt.

"Dong Sheng, have you lost your mind?"

"I’m causing trouble? My wrist is nearly broken, and you say I’m making trouble?"

"If you’re a man, deal with that brat!" Li Dongli clearly didn’t understand Dong Sheng’s intention and started cursing again wildly.

Dong Sheng’s face grew darker.

He wished he could rush over and beat Li Dongli to death; this idiotic woman really had nothing but a pig’s brain.

I suddenly tell you to apologize, isn’t the implication clear?

I can’t afford to mess with them!

The order came directly from the city bureau; the other party’s influence is beyond imagination.

"Li Dongli, shut your damn mouth!" Dong Sheng shouted at Li Dongli and then walked towards Lu Xiao.

Expecting Li Dongli to cooperate was obviously impossible; he had to handle it himself.

"Sir, I’m sorry; I was too rash just now, my sincere apologies."

Hearing Dong Sheng apologize to Lu Xiao, the parents present, as well as He Xinmiao, were all surprised.

This... changed so quickly?

Just a moment ago, Dong Sheng was shouting about making Lu Xiao rot in jail.

How come he suddenly started to apologize?

Was it because of the phone call Dong Sheng just made?

It seems that Jiang Li’s brother has a lot of clout.

"If I recall correctly, in our neck of the woods, we don’t talk about right or wrong, we talk about power. So, save your apologies," Lu Xiao glanced at Dong Sheng.

Now you know you can’t offend me and you start apologizing? Where in the world do you get such a nice deal?

Cold sweat was already forming on Dong Sheng’s forehead.

The other side clearly wasn’t willing to let things slide.

"Dong Ming, come here!" Dong Sheng yelled at his son.

"Tell me, did you bully them?"

"Apologize!"

"If they don’t forgive you, don’t bother coming home today."

After all, Dong Ming was just a five or six-year-old child. Scolded by his father like this, he immediately started shivering.

"Dong Sheng! On what grounds are you making my son apologize!"

"It was clearly those two brats who knocked over my son’s blocks."

"Xiao Ming, come here! We’re not apologizing!" Li Dongli stepped forward and pulled Dong Ming to her side.

Dong Sheng’s face was extremely grim, damn it, this foolish woman!

"There’s no need to make your son suffer," Lu Xiao waved his hand dismissively.

To be honest, he didn’t think Dong Ming was a big problem.

Ali and Zhang Yufei did knock over his blocks, and him pushing someone wasn’t an unforgivable offence.

Kids don’t have the same emotional control as adults.

Making a mistake, apologizing, and then learning from it is all part of the growth process every child goes through.

So when Dong Ming pushed Ali down, he didn’t even get up to deal with it but left it to the teacher to handle.

The real instigator of the conflict was Li Dongli.

Hearing Lu Xiao’s words, Dong Sheng felt somewhat relieved; the other party was starting to relent.

"Here’s what we’ll do: I’ll host dinner tonight to apologize to you and your child. It’s my fault for not disciplining my child and wife properly; I’ll make sure to manage them better once I’m home."

Lu Xiao let out a disdainful chuckle. I’m not one to call it quits halfway. Once I make a move, I see it through to the end.

Besides, the one you should really be apologizing to is the girl whose arm your wife nearly broke.

They don’t have power or influence, so they don’t fit into your apology narrative, is that it?
