The Shao family was considered one of the most powerful families in Capital City. However, Wei Hongmian's father was Shao Jingshan's former chief. Therefore, the doctors had to weigh the pros and cons of Wei Hongmian's actions. They would rather risk offending the Shao family to agree to Wei Hongmian's request.
Shao Yibai thought about how he had missed out on so many years with Su Qingcheng because of Wei Hongmian's momentary lapse in judgment. In particular, that half-hearted woman of his had run away again and again because of this matter. Shao Yibai sighed in his heart.
Shao Yibai stood up and left the table. The plainclothes guard beside him followed him out.
January in Capital City was very cold. The north wind howled and drilled into people's skin.
The man staggered a few times in the snow and fell headfirst into the green belt by the roadside. The guard rushed over to help him up. Shao Yibai was half-awake and half-dazed. "Xiaodai, where are you?"
Yan Zhou …
The scorching sun hung high in the sky. It was their third year in Yan Zhou. After years of drought, everything curled up their bodies in the middle of the summer. It was as if they could hear the sound of their skin being roasted …
"Madam Su, please come to school. Su Shaoan had a conflict with other children again."
Su Qingcheng's emotions turned from burning hot to cold when she received a call from Su Shaoan's homeroom teacher.
It was the third time this month.
Su Shaoan was already in the first grade of elementary school, but he still could not change his bad habit of fighting.
Su Qingcheng was getting a headache because he had been invited to school more and more often to fight with other children in class.
She had opened a martial arts training organization in Yan Zhou to teach children and teenagers martial arts. Su Shaoan had been influenced by what he saw since he was young, so his martial arts skills were also good. The parents of the children who were beaten up were naturally unforgiving.
Today, the children who were beaten up were three older children. There were bruises on their heads, and one of them had a corner of his uniform torn.
Su Shaoan was fine, but there was some dust on his clothes. The stubborn expression on his little face angered one of the parents.
"Is this how you educate your child as a mother? Look at what you've done to my son! "
A middle-aged woman in her forties had a loud voice. She spoke in the local dialect of Yan Zhou. She pointed at Su Qingcheng in Teacher Zhang's office and shouted.
The other two parents were also very impulsive. Their words were very harsh. "You're just a child who was raised by a mother but not taught by a mother. Why don't you ask around in Yan Zhou? Is the Hu family a pushover? I'll give you two options for beating us up like this. Either you let us beat you up, or you pay our medical fees and kick your child out of this school. "
When Su Qingcheng saw the situation, she was not annoyed. She ignored the three parents who were clamoring and asked Teacher Zhang slowly, "Teacher Zhang, can you tell us about the situation?"
Teacher Zhang knew that Su Shaoan came from a single-parent family. This child was usually very polite in school, but he was a little cold and aloof when it came to his classmates.
These seniors had gone to the entrance of the second grade class to provoke Su Shaoan, and they had been beaten up. The adults naturally knew what was going on.
However, Teacher Zhang was a little afraid of one of the parents. They were notorious bullies in the village. She had helped Su Shaoan this time, but the parents might use their connections to cause trouble for her in the future.
"Shao An's mother, the child hit someone else. In my opinion, you should quickly pay for the medical fees and let the matter rest …"
"Teacher Zhang!" Su Qingcheng could not suppress the anger in her heart when she heard what Teacher Zhang said. Su Shaoan, who was next to her, saw that his mother's expression had turned very ugly. He moved his small body closer to his mother.
Su Qingcheng lowered her head and saw the fear on the child's young face. She lowered her voice and continued, "Let's let the matter rest. It depends on what happened."
She turned around and looked at the three arrogant and despotic parents. Her gaze was sharp and vicious. She said in a low voice, "If Su Shaoan was the one who hit you, I would naturally teach my son a good lesson. However, can someone explain to me why the three of you attacked one person? Moreover, you're all older than Su Shaoan. What's going on? "
The three parents looked at each other. None of them spoke first. Of course, they knew what kind of person their child was. Moreover, it was a fact that their child was indeed older than Su Shaoan.
Su Qingcheng's aura was still aggressive. Her beautiful face had turned red because she was suppressing her anger. This was a form of provocation in the eyes of the first, second, and third parents.
They glared at Su Qingcheng. They looked as if they could not suppress their anger.
Su Qingcheng's voice was a little hoarse. It was the result of restraining herself. "It's our fault that you lost the fight. Why are you making a fuss here? On the other hand, if you won, I'd like to ask who I would seek justice from today."
The most arrogant of the three was a forty-year-old middle-aged woman. She could not hold it in anymore. She pulled her son over and pointed at Su Shaoan.
"Tell us then. We're fine. Why would we fight with this little bastard for no reason? "
The little boy looked a little arrogant because he had his mother's protection. He rubbed himself against Su Shaoan with all his might.
Su Qingcheng shielded her son and stood in front of Su Shaoan. She sneered and lowered her head to ask Su Shaoan, "An 'an, tell me. Why did you fight with them?"
Su Shaoan's face turned red and white. After a while, his furrowed brows gradually relaxed. The boy lowered his head and said softly, "They said that I don't have a father … I'm a bastard …"
Su Qingcheng trembled slightly. She held her son's shoulder with her hand.
Although the child was young and did not really understand the meaning of the word bastard, he already knew that it was an insulting term.
"Son, you hit them well!" Su Qingcheng smiled and said softly, "However, I'm not encouraging you to fight. It's just that you should fight when it's time for someone to bully you!"
Su Shaoan's eyes lit up. He curled his lips and smiled. "Mom, my martial arts skills are alright, right? Those idiots think that I'm easy to bully. "
Teacher Zhang's worldview changed when she heard the conversation between the mother and son. The other three female parents who were present also lost their composure. What kind of mother would instigate her son to fight?
"Woman, how can you say that? We'll help you if you don't know how to educate him … "
"Why wouldn't I know how to educate him? My son wouldn't call someone a bastard!" Su Qingcheng straightened her back. Her aura, which was cultivated from years of martial arts training, made it difficult for the other party to breathe.
Mother A took a step back. She pointed her fat finger at Su Qingcheng's nose and scolded her, "Look at your mischievous face. I knew that you're up to no good. You're pregnant with this little bastard …"
"Yes. I think so too. I wonder who's the sugar daddy that she slept with to open such a big martial arts school in Yan Zhou … "
The three of them began to ramble on in front of the teacher and the child.
Su Qingcheng sneered and said coldly, "All three of your sons can't even defeat Su Shaoan. You can imagine how powerful his mother is. I don't mind teaching all of you a lesson on behalf of the children's grannies, since you can't even watch your mouths!"
When the three women saw the murderous look in Su Qingcheng's bloodthirsty eyes, they suddenly felt a little scared. They looked at Teacher Zhang for help and shouted, "Teacher Zhang, did you see that? What kind of mother raises what kind of child? We haven't even said a few words and she already wants to fight. Tell her who's behind us!"
Teacher Zhang was already scared out of her wits. When she saw the murderous look on Su Qingcheng's face, she quickly stepped forward to be the peacemaker. "Madam Su, don't panic. Let's talk this out."
Su Qingcheng smiled mockingly. "They're the ones who haven't spoken properly since we entered the house!"
Teacher Zhang tugged at Su Qingcheng and said softly, "There's someone above that family. You're an orphan and a widow. It's better if you don't provoke them …"
Su Qingcheng had already guessed this outcome. She smiled and said to Teacher Zhang, "I won't make things difficult for you, teacher. However, if we admit defeat today, Su Shaoan won't be able to stay in this school anymore. After all, as an educator, you think that we should swallow our anger. The others will feel the same way too! "
Su Qingcheng had always been the most obedient child in her family since she was young. She knew very well that being the most obedient did not mean that one would be the most successful.
Teacher Zhang felt embarrassed when she heard what she said. She looked at A, B, and C and sighed. She said to Su Qingcheng, "Then, what do you guys think we should do?"
Su Qingcheng smiled and said, "Admit defeat!"
Admit defeat?
The three of them looked at each other. A stepped forward and sneered. "Are you saying that we're going to be beaten up for nothing?"
Su Qingcheng smiled and looked at the three older children. She said calmly, "Kids, you should have thought of two outcomes when you hit someone. You can hit them or you can be hit! Since you can't beat them, you have two options. First, you can learn martial arts. Auntie's Heaven and Earth Martial Arts Center will give you a 20% discount. Second, don't hit them. Watch your mouth and your hands! "
Su Qingcheng took out a few name cards and stuffed them into the first child's hand. "The address of the martial arts center is written on these. You're welcome anytime!"
She pulled Su Shaoan out of the office without looking back as she said this.
The three of them could not react to the situation at that moment. They did not dare to stop them, so they suffered in silence.
A said angrily, "I'll ask Chief Li to seal your door later!"
Su Qingcheng was naturally not afraid of being sealed. Her martial arts training institution had all five certificates. It had the most advanced firefighting equipment and was certified by the industry. Speaking of which, Chief Zhang Han from Yan Zhou's military district had helped her out.
Zhang Han knew that Little Su was a girl back then, so he guessed that she had an 'affair' with Shao Yibai. He even thought that Su Shaoan was Shao Yibai's son …
Su Shaoan's face was full of pride on the way home. After all, he was still a child. He could not hide the energy on his face.
Su Qingcheng was deeply worried. If this continued, it would not be good for Su Shaoan's growth.
She thought about it, but she did not know what to do. Boys needed their father's company, but she could not accept another man.
When she thought about men, Su Qingcheng could only think of Shao Yibai's figure.
Although he did not have many contacts in Capital City, Su Qingcheng knew that Shao Yibai had been single for the past few years …
Su Qingcheng made a simple meal for the child when she got home. She turned on her computer and logged onto QQ for the first time in many years. She had lost contact with Mu Chenyan and Miao Hong, but she still had their QQ accounts.
Su Qingcheng knew a little about Mu Chenyan's return to Luo Hai. At this moment, Su Qingcheng was happy for them when she saw that the couple had finally gotten together after going through so many hardships.
She clicked on Mu Chenyan's profile and saw the news that Mu Chenyan was pregnant with the second treasure. She suddenly felt an indescribable bitterness in her heart. If she could give birth to a child for Shao Yibai, they would not have to live so hard …
She spent most of the most important years of her life from the age of 0 to 8 years old.
