Chapter 585: Five hundred and eighty, a designer with dreams in their heart.

Gu Chen watched from the side without saying a word.

Nowadays most methods of education seem to follow the idea that filial sons are the product of strict discipline.

So his use of corporal punishment wasn’t uncommon.

At that moment, Peng Peng’s father walked over to the car.

He glanced at Gu Chen and the bald man.

"You must be the car owner," he said, directing his gaze at the bald man.

Because Gu Chen was holding Tiantian, it was clear that he was the other child and parent Teacher Li had mentioned.

"I’m the car owner," said the bald man, who also seemed to be a boss and responded politely.

"Are you Tiantian’s parent?"

Although he was very polite to the bald man, he wasn’t so courteous to Gu Chen.

Especially considering Gu Chen seemed to bear some antagonism towards him.

It felt as if Gu Chen was indebted to him in some way.

But Gu Chen was still very polite in response, saying, "Hello."

Peng Peng’s father took a look at the side of the car.

He noticed there was only one scratch on it.

"That’s not right, your car has only one scratch. It couldn’t have been two kids, there must have been just one who did it," he quickly pointed out the inconsistency.

After hearing this, the bald man nodded, "It looks like it was done by one kid. This gentleman also just mentioned it was likely scratched with a key. I remember when a friend’s car was keyed, the damage was similar to what’s on my car now."

He too thought that it must have been just one child who had caused the damage.

That made things interesting.

It meant that it must have been either Tiantian or Peng Peng who was responsible.

"Teacher Li, shouldn’t we clarify this matter?" Peng Peng’s father asked Teacher Li.

Upon reflection, Teacher Li thought that it made sense.

Clearly, it was one of the two children who had done it.

"Tiantian, Peng Peng, tell your teacher who did it," Teacher Li asked Tiantian and Peng Peng.

Neither of them spoke, somehow both fell silent.

At that time, Peng Peng’s father glanced at Tiantian with a look of certainty that she was the culprit.

However, instead of confronting Tiantian, he directly reprimanded his son Peng Peng, "I’m asking you! Did you do it? If you don’t speak up, there’ll be no dinner for you when we get home, and you’ll go stand outside as punishment!"

As he said this,

Gu Chen didn’t doubt for a moment that if there weren’t so many people around, Peng Peng’s father would have definitely started hitting his son right there and then.

Upon hearing these words, Tiantian suddenly spoke up, "Uncle, it was me who damaged it, not Peng Peng."

After she spoke, Peng Peng’s father seemed unsurprised at all.

"I knew it. You rascal wouldn’t dare cause me trouble," he said to Peng Peng.

At that point, Peng Peng looked at Tiantian.

Then he openly stated, "No, Teacher Li, it was me who did it."

After he finished, everyone present was stunned.

What was going on with these two children? Why were they competing over something like this?

Everyone around found it strange, as this wasn’t something worth fighting over.

"You little rascal, say that again!"

Peng Peng’s father became anxious upon hearing this.

He quickly reached out to grab Peng Peng.

But Teacher Li, as if already prepared, quickly moved away with Peng Peng.

"Peng Peng’s father! What are you doing? How could you treat a child like this!" Teacher Li was somewhat frightened by Peng Peng’s father’s method of disciplining.

At that time, the other children started looking at Peng Peng’s father with a bit of fear.

They had never had such education in their home.

Peng Peng was directly frightened to tears at this moment.

He clung tightly to Teacher Li’s hand, looking as if he had grabbed his last lifeline.

"You little punk, tell me again, who is the one who damaged it!"

Peng Peng’s dad didn’t care about any of that and loudly demanded an explanation from Peng Peng, as if he was going to devour him.

Upon seeing this, Teng Teng immediately became anxious and hurriedly looked to Gu Chen.

Seeing Teng Teng’s plea for help in her eyes, Gu Chen immediately understood what it meant.

He knew in his heart who had actually scratched the car.

He had guessed it earlier, actually.

Because Teng Teng didn’t have the keys on her at all.

At this point, Gu Chen could only speak up, "Peng Peng’s dad."

Peng Peng’s dad turned his head to look at Gu Chen, intending to see what he had to say.

"Now that the incident has happened, let’s not talk about the child anymore.

It’s not clear who caused the scratch, but I think both children might have had a role."

After he said this, Peng Peng’s dad’s face immediately showed displeasure.

"Are you suggesting our families should compensate together? But there’s only this one scratch on the car!"

Clearly, Peng Peng’s dad was not willing to pay the money.

Fixing a Mercedes would cost a few thousand yuan.

And a few thousand yuan was not a small amount for their family either.

Even the big gold chain around his neck was only a bit over three thousand yuan.

"If you’re not willing, our side can pay the full amount.

There’s no need to check the surveillance; the incident has already happened."

Before, Gu Chen had planned to look at the surveillance footage.

Now that the answer was almost clear, watching the footage seemed pointless.

"What do you mean by that, are you suggesting we’re reluctant to spend the money?

If our child damaged the car, then, of course, I would pay.

But right now, it’s not certain who damaged the car!"

Peng Peng’s dad felt like he was losing face.

After all, Gu Chen said he would take on all the cost, which seemed like charity.

Gu Chen felt helpless after hearing this; there were many who cared about face in society, and Peng Peng’s dad was clearly one of them.

As the two were unable to reach an agreement,

suddenly a figure appeared.

"Boss Gu! Are you Boss Gu from Ping’an Real Estate?"

A young man looked at Gu Chen with fervent eyes.

His eyes fixed on Gu Chen as if trying to discern whether he was the same person he had seen on TV.

Gu Chen was taken aback for a moment after seeing his expression,

but then he simply said, "Hello."

"Boss Gu! It really is you!"

"It really is Boss Gu, everyone come here!"

As he spoke, he waved his hand towards the distance.

Then several people around his age immediately ran over.

"Boss Gu, we have been looking for you for a long time."

"Let me introduce myself; I graduated from Yan City University, from the design institute. After graduating, I returned to Chuan City. Knowing that Chuan City is now undergoing urban planning, I wanted to contribute to my hometown. I have made many design drafts, but there has been no opportunity to use them, so I want to cooperate with you."

He spoke to Gu Chen very excitedly.

The entire urban planning project of Chuan City was in Gu Chen’s hands.
