Chapter 332: Have You Forgotten Whose Son You Are?

Chapter 332: Chapter 332: Have You Forgotten Whose Son You Are?

He Yuming also followed, "If you bully Xingxing, I’ll hit you."

Lele was so frightened that he hid behind his mother.

"Look at you all, only two or three years old, already talking about hitting and killing. What will you become when you grow up? I absolutely will not let my son attend the same kindergarten as you." Lele’s mom trembled with anger.

The principal glanced at the silent Cheng Zhiwei before speaking, "Lele’s mom..."

"This is my demand, otherwise I will report you to the Bureau of Education." Lele’s mom sat down with a thump, threatening fiercely, "I will report you for bullying."

The principal was at a loss for words for a moment. The accusation of bullying was something they could not afford to bear, but Cheng Yang and Cheng Xing were introduced by Guo Cuihua, and she found it difficult to ask someone else not to attend.

She glanced at Zhou Ruoki. When she had first arrived, her parents just registered and left, never showing their faces afterward, she must be from an ordinary family.

She was just a principal, caught between personal relationships and power. She could only choose what was least impactful for the kindergarten and herself.

Besides, everyone said that Zhou Ruoki’s mother was a murderer.

"Zhou Ruoki." She slowly began, "Have you realized your mistake?"

Zhou Ruoki’s face turned pale instantly, lips tightly pursed as she bowed her head and apologized, "I’m sorry."

"Don’t apologize to him." Cheng Yang cried out in anger.

"Enough." Cheng Zhiwei walked over and took Zhou Ruoki’s hand. She had been silent, just wanting to see how these little ones would handle this situation.

She hadn’t expected Zhou Ruoki to proactively admit her mistake, even though she wasn’t wrong, but she was protecting Cheng Yang and the others.

This alone was enough for Cheng Zhiwei to let go of the prejudices against him because of his being Seo Zhenzhen’s son.

And clearly, in this situation, Cheng Yang, regardless of his feelings, acknowledged Zhou Ruoki.

They were all good children.

So how could she let them down?

Even though she was still weak and running a slight fever, she firmly held onto Zhou Ruoki, looking blankly at Lele’s mom, "You keep calling out ’murderer’, I can see whom your son takes after. It’s you who lacks the upbringing."

"Asking them to apologize, it’s not happening."

Zhou Ruoki looked up blankly at Cheng Zhiwei, tears still on her face.

She thought she had been abandoned by everyone.

But Aunt Cheng’s hand was so warm.

"Fine, then. Let’s wait for the lawyers to sue you." Lele’s mom spoke arrogantly.

"Sure, I’ll wait. I really want to see how you can make us drop out."

When Lele’s mom saw Cheng Zhiwei’s tough stance, she immediately changed her expression, looking at the principal, "Alright, principal, you tell us. Will you expel them or not?"

The principal’s face twisted into a bitter expression.

The pressure was enormous.

"Aunt Cheng." Zhou Ruoki’s small face was full of worry.

"Qiqi." Cheng Zhiwei crouched down and touched his face, looking at him firmly, "Have you forgotten who your father is?"

Such status, if not used, is it meant to just gather dust?

Zhou Ruoki lowered his head, his eyelashes still wet with tears, "He’ll be angry."

He had no mother left and didn’t want his father to be angry too.

Cheng Zhiwei’s throat tightened, her sympathy for Zhou Ruoki reaching its peak at this moment.

Even including guilt.

How could she be so narrow-minded as to think that because he is Seo Zhenzhen’s son, he too must be evil?

"He..." Cheng Zhiwei wanted to say that he wasn’t, that he is Zhou Lin’s son, that he was naturally privileged.

But before she could finish, she was interrupted.

"He Yuming." He Lanzhi’s voice came with a feigned gentleness, "The teacher said you were fighting at school?"

He Yuming dashed behind Cheng Zhiwei, already traumatized by He Lanzhi at his tender age.

So upon seeing He Lanzhi, his first instinct was to run to Cheng Zhiwei’s side, to escape He Lanzhi.

He Lanzhi’s expression darkened with annoyance at his reaction, her gaze then coldly shifted to Zhou Ruoki, filling with disgust.

Zhou Ruoki almost managed to utter "Uncle He" but swallowed it back uncomfortably.

His head hung even lower.

"He Yuming, why are you hiding there, come here." He Lanzhi yelled at He Yuming, unable to maintain her composure for more than three seconds.

With Cheng Zhiwei backing him, He Yuming felt emboldened and stuck out his tongue, boldly declaring, "You’re the bad one, I’m not coming over."

"I am your father." He Lanzhi said sternly, "Your mom went on a business trip, so I’m in charge of you now."

Xu Tian had indeed gone on a business trip. She originally did not intend to manage the company anymore, but after a call from Father He, she had no choice but to agree.

Before leaving, Xu Tian asked Cheng Zhiwei’s parents to help look after He Yuming, but the Headmaster didn’t know and couldn’t contact Xu Tian, so he called He family’s home.

That’s why He Lanzhi was here.

"Before Tiantian left, she asked me to look after He Yuming, so He Lanzhi, you have no right to yell at him here," Cheng Zhiwei said coldly.

He Lanzhi didn’t even look at her, just said to the headmaster, "I’ve seen the surveillance; at most He Yuming accidentally bumped into him. I am willing to pay one hundred thousand yuan as compensation."

Still, one hundred thousand yuan to extricate He Yuming from this incident,

but the truth was He Yuming wasn’t at fault.

This way, it was tantamount to tacitly admitting that He Yuming and the others had bullied Lele.

Upon hearing about the one hundred thousand yuan, Lele’s mom immediately agreed, boastfully declaring, "It was not your son I was after, but that murderer’s son."

He Lanzhi replied blandly, "Indeed, a murderer’s son has inferior genes deeply embedded, irredeemable bad roots. He’ll be a menace when he grows up."

"He Lanzhi, what are you rambling about in front of the children." Cheng Zhiwei’s eyes reddened with anger. Even if Zhou Ruoki wasn’t his son, he shouldn’t be talked about like this.

It was utterly disgraceful and despicable.

Zhou Ruoki softly started to sob; he didn’t want to cry, but he felt incredibly wronged and sad.

He didn’t understand what he had done wrong, why everyone disliked him.

"What does it have to do with you, he’s not even your son." He Lanzhi’s words were laced with sarcastic malice. "Cheng Zhiwei, would you defend him so fervently if he was another woman’s son? "

After saying this, he gestured to the butler who came with him to pick up He Yuming.

He Yuming was dodging around, not willing to go, "Bad person, bad person."

The Headmaster, having never met He Lanzhi before, hesitated and then called security, "I’m sorry, sir, but you cannot take the child away right now."

He Lanzhi’s face darkened, "I am his father."

"But he says you’re not, and I cannot take that risk. I need his mother’s consent before he can leave with you," said the headmaster, dutifully.

He Lanzhi thus was unable to take He Yuming with him.

With He Lanzhi’s promise of one hundred thousand yuan secured, Lele’s mom turned her greedy gaze towards Cheng Zhiwei, "Everyone else thinks it is their own child’s fault and has offered compensation, what about you, how long do you plan to hold out?"

"My money, I’m afraid you can’t handle it." Cheng Zhiwei patted Zhou Ruoki’s head, "Besides, his last name is Zhou."
