Chapter 301: Do Not Use Children As Bargaining Chips!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Fang Ya came to the school and found He Peng’s class.
He Peng was sitting alone in the classroom, doing his homework.
Fang Ya walked forward and looked at the homework in He Peng’s hands. She frowned and asked, “Where’s your teacher?”
He Peng looked up at Fang Ya, his face a little aggrieved. “Mom, the teacher said she’s in the office. I can only leave when my parents come.”
Fang Ya’s face turned even uglier when she heard that.
She packed He Peng’s things and told him to wait in the classroom. Then, she quickly walked to the office.
In the office, the other teachers had already gotten off work. Only Hao Mei was sitting alone in the office, doing something on her desk.
When Fang Ya walked up, she heard that Hao Mei seemed to be calling someone.
“Are you busy today? Actually, I still have something to do…” Hao Mei suddenly paused as if the other party had said something.
“Well, I still think…” Hao Mei spoke again in a gentle tone.
“Look, the child is still studying at school. I think it’s best if you come over and we can talk face to face,” Hao Mei added, afraid that the other party would interrupt her again.
Fang Ya’s brows were tightly furrowed. She had already guessed who Hao Mei was calling.
Fang Ya called out to Hao mei from afar, “Teacher Hao, I’m here to pick up the child.”
When Hao Mei heard Fang Ya’s words, her expression instantly became a little ugly.
She stood up abruptly and covered the phone’s microphone. Turning her head to look at Fang Ya, she asked bluntly, “Why are you here?”
Fang Ya sneered, “Why? I’m here to pick up the child. Is there a problem?”
“I’m communicating with the child’s father…” Teacher Hao said as if Fang Ya was meddling in her business.
Fang Ya smiled lightly and showed a contemptuous expression. “The child’s father is very busy. He doesn’t have time to come over now.”
“If you want to wait, you can keep waiting,” Fang Ya said in an unfriendly tone. “I’m going to take the child back.”
Hearing this, Hao Mei’s face turned even uglier. “What do you mean!”
Fang Ya took a few steps forward and walked in front of Hao Mei. “I don’t care what you’re trying to pull off here. Don’t use the child as a bargaining chip.”
Hao Mei’s eyes were fixed on Fang Ya, and she could barely maintain her image as a teacher.
Fang Ya did not give Hao Mei a chance to explode. She said to Hao Mei, “Don’t let me interrupt your call,” and left.
After Fang Ya’s reminder, Hao Mei remembered that she had not hung up the phone, and her heart went cold.
She picked up the phone and put it to her ear. “Hello? Captain He?”
He Feng had not hung up yet, so he had obviously heard the conversation between the two.
He Feng smiled and said to Hao mei, “Thank you, Teacher Hao. You can talk to his mother about the child’s education.”
Without waiting for Hao Mei’s reply, He Feng said again, “If there’s nothing else, I’ll hang up first.”
Hao Mei was about to speak, but she heard a beep from the phone.
Hao Mei gritted her teeth and stared at the phone in her hand, her hands clenched tightly.
Fang Ya brought He Peng home. After dinner, He Peng was so tired that he went back to his room to sleep.
When Fang Ya arrived at the room, she saw three missed calls.
Fang Ya picked up the phone and looked at them. They were all from He Feng.
“What’s wrong?” Fang Ya called him and asked when He Feng had picked up.
He Feng could hear that Fang Ya was not very happy. He smiled sheepishly. “What’s wrong? Are you angry with Teacher Hao?”
Fang Ya snorted and did not respond.
He Feng waited for a while. When Fang Ya did not respond, he said, “Should we transfer He Peng to another school?”
Fang Ya finally sighed and said, “We can’t affect the child because of our matters. It’s better to let him spend his senior years at school peacefully.”
He Feng knew that Fang Ya was thinking for He Peng’s sake. He thought for a moment and asked again, “I know what to do.”
Fang Ya did not understand He Feng was getting at.. She probed him with a “well?” and did not ask further.
