Chapter 59: Come Here Quickly
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
These words did not leave any considerations of dignity. There was originally someone who wanted to help them smooth things over but they stopped moving as well.
Liu Meifeng watched from the side and felt it to be extremely anger-pacifying.
Shen Meijia stood in front of Xiao Ying and assumed a protective posture as she said, “Xiao Ying is great and I won’t allow you to say that about her.”
Madam Xiao looked at Shen Meijia and frowned. “Where did this uncultured child come from? I’m teaching my own daughter a lesson. Is there a need for others to interfere?”
For a second, Shen Dazhuang did not fully process what happened. He didn’t know that his daughter’s friend was in such a situation in the Xiao family.
Seeing his daughter’s stubborn gaze, Shen Dazhuang stepped forward.
He looked at Madam Xiao and smiled. “Madam Xiao, my daughter was being insensible. Please forgive her.”
Madam Xiao’s expression finally improved.
Shen Dazhuang added, “But, towards a child, it would be best not to be overly strict.”
Madam Xiao’s expression turned cold as she said, “Who are you? How dare you lecture me?”
Here, the Xiao family had the capital to be arrogant, so Madam Xiao couldn’t even be bothered to show the gentle temperament she puts up in front of upper-class society.
Shen Dazhuang smiled good-naturedly and said, “I naturally can’t compare to the Xiao family in terms of wealth and power, but I can still say a few words.”
Xiao Lingbo interrupted them and said to Xiao Ying, “If you apologize, I’ll allow you to sit here today.”
All the students in the classroom were sitting with their parents, except for Xiao Ying, who was alone.
If she were really a ten-year-old child, she probably would already be crying.
Xiao Ying said firmly, “No need. Don’t forget that you two are no longer my parents. You should leave the seat beside you to Xiao Ruoxuan.”
Xiao Lingbo’s expression darkened as he pointed at Xiao Ying and said, “Today is the parent-teacher conference. In that case, students without parents can leave.”
Xiao Ying looked at Xiao Lingbo with cold eyes. “Why should I listen to you?”
Xiao Lingbo looked at Liu Meifeng and said, “Miss, who do you think we should listen to?”
Liu Meifeng immediately said, “President Xiao is right. Xiao Ying, hurry up and get out.”
Shen Meijia said unhappily, “Miss, what right do you have to make Xiao Ying leave?”
Shen Meijia had repeatedly come out to cause trouble. Xiao Lingbo did not want to haggle with a child, but now, with his head muddled by anger, he looked at Shen Dazhuang and said, “You should take some time to discipline your daughter. You have to know there are people you can’t offend.”
Shen Dazhuang still smiled merrily, not offending anyone.
He nodded and said to Xiao Lingbo, “Yes, yes, yes. You’re right. I’ll take her back to her seat now.”
Shen Meijia immediately said, “I’m not going back. I want to be with Xiao Ying.”
“Be good and don’t mess around,” said Shen Dazhuang.
He looked at Shen Meijia’s indignant gaze and smiled as he said, “Xiao Jia, hurry up and bring Xiao Ying to sit over here.”
Shen Meijia pouted, dissatisfied with his previous actions. “Why should I listen to you?”
Shen Dazhuang didn’t get mad, he just waited for her cheerfully.
It was not until Shen Meijia realized what he said that she led Xiao Ying forward happily.
The people waiting to watch Xiao Ying’s show were all stunned.
Xiao Lingbo had not expected Shen Dazhuang to dare to humiliate him like this.
With a dark expression, he said, “I wonder where the Shen family got the guts to oppose our Xiao family.”
Shen Dazhuang’s expression was a little stiff, but he looked at his daughter’s expectant gaze and couldn’t bear to do anything to disappoint her.
But he could not afford to offend the Xiao family either.
Shen Dazhuang stood up calmly, as if he was already prepared to face death. Everyone looked at him like they were looking at a fool.
Offending the Xiao family just for a child’s friendship, he probably didn’t want to stay in business anymore.
Before Shen Dazhuang could speak, a chilling voice sounded from outside the classroom.
