Chapter 761: Chapter 761: Returning to One’s Ancestral Roots (17)_1

Ruan Jiaojiao was shocked by the scene before her; she truly hadn’t expected Qi Lian to be so ruthless, pushing all the blame onto his own daughter. And it was bad enough to put the blame on her, but to actually hit her until her ear bled?

How could a father be so cruel!

Seeing Qi Weixin like that, not only did she not feel happy, but she also felt somewhat uncomfortable, distressingly leaning closer to Xiu Xi’s side. Xiu Xi held her hand, silently comforting her.

Ruan Lei hadn’t expected things to turn out this way either, his previous joy turning to silence.

"Shu Jiao, look at this..." Watching the family of three rush away, the headmaster looked apologetically at Shu Jiao, wanting to say let’s just let the matter rest here, after all, Qi Weixin had also suffered such a severe punishment.

But Shu Jiao seemed to read his mind and spoke before he could say it, "Principal Xu, this is your school’s affair, and I shouldn’t interfere too much, but since it’s related to my nephew’s reputation, I still have something to say."

"Although Principal Qi claims that it was Qi Weixin who did it on her own, stealing the exam paper, do you really think with her current grades, she could independently complete that set of questions and score full marks?"

"This..." Faced with Shu Jiao’s sharp question, Principal Xu didn’t know how to answer.

Indeed, Qi Weixin could have stolen the exam paper, but with her level of ability, if no one had helped her, how could she possibly have achieved a perfect score?

"Principal Xu, as teachers, the most important thing is to set an example for our students, don’t you think?"

"Yes." Principal Xu nodded, realizing that this matter couldn’t just be swept under the rug, and he could only nod in resignation.

"Since that’s the case, we won’t disturb you any further. We’ll be going now and will visit you next time to keep you company for a game of chess."

"..." Watching the appropriately smiling Shu Jiao, the headmaster suddenly felt his fondness for chess wasn’t that strong anymore.

As they left the headmaster’s office, they ran into Lu Zishu and Ruan Feng, who had been waiting for them. Seeing that none of them were smiling, he anxiously asked, "Did you guys do poorly on the test? Did that tattle-tale win first place?"

"No." Ruan Lei shook his head, briefly explaining what had just happened in the office.

Lu Zishu listened with his tongue clicking in shock, "Is she really his biological child? How can he be so harsh?" He always felt that he might not be Zhao Li’s biological son, but Zhao Li only criticized him verbally. She provided him with the best food and clothing, and he had never imagined there were really parents in the world that could be so outrageous.

Hearing this, what was supposed to be a joyous occasion silenced the boys; none showed any signs of happiness. After all, they were quite young, maybe a bit naughty, but in their eyes, the world was supposed to be beautiful. They had never witnessed such a cruel scene before.

If they were feeling this way, imagine Ruan Jiaojiao. She remained silent the whole time, her little head bowed down, not uttering a single word.

After leaving the school gate, Shu Jiao didn’t sit in the front passenger seat, but instead sat in the back and took Ruan Jiaojiao, who had been somewhat out of sorts since seeing Qi Weixin getting hit, into her arms.

"Jiaojiao can’t bear it?" she asked, gently stroking her hair as if cherishing every single hair strand.

Feeling her tenderness, Ruan Jiaojiao’s heart grew even more uneasy. She wrapped her small hands around her neck, nestling into her embrace with dependency, and asked in a muffled voice, "Mom, she won’t be hurt, right?"

She knew that kind of beating could potentially make someone deaf.
