182 As the Saying Goes, a Hero Saves the Damsel in Distress
Su Su felt uncomfortable upon hearing what Su Qiao said about Su Jun. She paused and said hoarsely, “Their our parents. We’re all sad about what happened.”
Seeing that she had rendered Su Qiao speechless, Su Su said earnestly, “Big Brother has been like a parent to us. He has a lot of responsibilities and is doing this for your benefit. Fifth Brother, you”
Su Su didn’t know how to describe what she wanted to convey. It was difficult for the little girl to explain that Su Jun was a father figure to his siblings.
However, Su Su noticed that Su Qiao lowered his head guiltily. She could tell that her fifth brother understood what she tried to say.
Nonetheless, Su Jun and Su Qiao just had a big fight, and the two were in a state of physical and mental pain. Moreover, it would be challenging to prove Su Qiao’s innocence without concrete proof.
Su Su decided to arrange for Su Jun and Su Qiao to have a heart-to-heart conversation after she cleared Su Qiao’s name.
The two children fell silent for a long while. Then Su Su broke the silence and revealed her usual innocent expression. She smiled at Su Qiao and said, “Whatever the case may be, rest assured, Fifth Brother. Take your time and recover. Everything will be all right in a few days.”
Meanwhile, Su Jun seemed busy after his argument with Su Qiao. He was always tired, leaving for work early, and coming home late. He never had time to interact with his family. According to Chen Shun, Su Jun had become gloomy. Perhaps something held him back at the Su Corporation.
To prevent the information from landing in the wrong hands, Su Su told Wan Shuang about Bai Tao lifting a girl’s skirt and then framing Su Qiao.
It was a Friday afternoon, and kindergarten ended early. Su Su led Wan Shuang to Su Qiao’s school and located his classroom. Since Su Qiao had yet to recover from his wounds, he hadn’t been to school for a few days, making Bai Tao happy.
When the bell rang, Bai Tao started bragging to his classmates. He usually bragged about how powerful his family was or how he belittled his sworn enemy, Su Qiao.
A few male and female students gathered around Bai Tao during that time. They were curiously gloating as they listened to him talk. Everyone started to believe that Su Qiao had a horrible personality. They thought that Su Qiao didn’t have any friends because he often offended others. The students happily listened to Bai Tao.
“Wow, Bai Tao. You’re like the girl’s knight in shining armor,” a short female student said with great admiration as she looked at the confident Bai Tao.
“Hmph, that’s right. Unlike that rat, Su Qiao, I am born to be a hero. He doesn’t dare to come back here after making such a mistake,” Bai Tao puffed his chest as he spoke.
Bai Tao initially planned on framing Su Qiao so the teacher would scold him, but he never expected Su Qiao to end up in such a sorry state. Not only did Su Qiao get scolded, but he hadn’t returned to school for a few days.
‘That scoundrel would never come back to school, seeing as he’s a proud person,’ Bai Tao thought maliciously.
Bai Tao patted his belly and wanted to continue slandering Su Qiao, but someone lifted him by his collar. Some of Bai Tao’s neck fat was stuck onto his collar, looking rather amusing.
Wan Shuang lifted Bai Tao with one hand, raised her eyebrows, and said, “A hero saving a damsel in distress, eh?”
Bai Tao and the others barely had time to react before Wan Shuang forcefully dragged him out of the classroom. Then Wan Shuang said to the other students, “Don’t worry. I’m one of Bai Tao’s distant cousins. I came to see if he’s doing his homework.”
The students heaved a sigh of relief when they heard that. Since Bai Tao was usually placed last in his grade, teachers often called his family members. The students had seen several of Bai Tao’s relatives and weren��t suspicious of Wan Shuang.
Bai Tao once hired someone to pretend to be a relative of his so they could deal with his teachers. However, he never expected this trick to bite him in the a*s one day. Bai Tao had unknowingly made it easier for Wan Shuang to drag him away.
