Chapter 57: Wanwan Is Emotionally Hurt, Third Master’s Panic
The moment Jiang Fengya heard that Qiao Aiyun had called the police, her mind went blank. The autumn wind blew, and the chill seeped into her bones.
“Don’t try to scare me. You hit me too. If the police come, you won’t be able to get away either.” She tried to hold back her teeth from trembling, not wanting them to see her fear.
“You bullied my daughter, so I couldn’t stand it. At most, I will be given a warning. But it’s illegal to hurt someone deliberately, and the heaviest punishment is time in prison.” Qiao Aiyun’s voice was clear and loud.
“You clearly did it on purpose.” Song Fengwan sneered. “If you didn’t do anything wrong, who would be able to frame you? Did I ask you to wait for me here? Or did I beg you to pull me?”
At this moment, the sound of police sirens was approaching. Jiang Fengya’s heart was in her mouth. She’s actually for real.
Ordinary people were in awe of the police. Besides, Jiang Fengya had really committed a crime. She only felt her vision turning black and her head becoming dizzy.
The school and the area around it were under the management of the same district branch as before. The few police officers originally thought that it was just an ordinary dispute. But when they saw Song Fengwan, their minds slightly exploded. It must be another hot potato.
***
In the police station…
The police officers briefly understood the situation and then retrieved the surveillance camera footage from the school. They could indeed see Song Fengwan leaning back in the footage as Jiang Fengya reached out her hand and pushed her.
The moment Jiang Fengya entered the police station, her tears didn’t stop flowing. She looked like she was scared out of her wits. As they were both girls and weren’t that old, the police officers had prepared to mediate first in an attempt to reconcile the two parties.
But when they found out about the relations.h.i.+p between the two parties, they were dumbfounded. It’s f*cking combination of old and new grudges. How can we possibly help resolve it?
Qiao Aiyun’s att.i.tude determined the direction of the entire matter, so one of the police officers could only bite the bullet and do her job first. “Ms. Qiao, Miss Jiang said that she didn’t do it on purpose and is willing to apologize and compensate you. This matter…”
“Don’t worry. I won’t bully her just because of my age or because I have some money. My lawyer will be coming over later to watch the evidence and go through the necessary procedures.
“If she’s innocent, I won’t accuse her wrongly.
“But if she really bullied my daughter, I won’t let her off.”
She sounded firm, and it seemed that there was no leeway to settle things peacefully.
The police officer had no choice but to convey her meaning to Jiang Fengya. “Miss Jiang, I think you should inform your family and discuss with them.”
Jiang Fengya had imagined meeting Qiao Aiyun countless times, but she hadn’t expected it to be such a situation. If she was able to contact Fu Yuxiu, things would be much easier. But now…
He was the only one who could negotiate with Qiao Aiyun.
She gritted her teeth. “Then I’ll make a call.”
The police officer nodded in agreement.
Not long after she ended the call, Qiao Aiyun’s phone vibrated. Song Fengwan was sitting beside her and subconsciously looked at the caller ID.
“I’ll go out and answer a call.” Qiao Aiyun walked out with her phone.
Song Fengwan twisted her clothes with her fingers. At this point, what else could she not understand?
Her mother was using Jiang Fengya to test her father.

“h.e.l.lo.” Qiao Aiyun walked to the yard of the police station.
“Aiyun…” Song Jingren’s voice was a little dry and hoa.r.s.e.
“What’s the matter?”
Song Jingren hesitated for a long time before saying calmly, “Fengya is still young. There must be some misunderstanding regarding this matter. Why do you have to be so aggressive…”
Starting from the first sentence he said on the phone, Qiao Aiyun’s heart was like dead ashes.
“Song Jingren, the two of them had a quarrel, and she pushed Wanwan. Why didn’t you ask Wanwan if she fell or got hurt? Why did you plead for that person straight away?
“I was right there. I know better than you if it was a misunderstanding or not.”
“I just don’t want things to blow up and make everyone be in a difficult situation.” Song Jingren was still finding excuses.
“I think you’re afraid that she’ll have a record and won’t be able to enter the Fu family, right?” Qiao Aiyun snickered.
Song Jingren’s thoughts were exposed. He gritted his teeth and said stiffly, “I’m the one who let you down in everything. Why do you have to vent your anger on a child?”
“She’s a child, but Wanwan isn’t? Is she going too far, or am I being too aggressive?” Qiao Aiyun harrumphed coldly. “When the engagement was broken, if I wasn’t taking your face into consideration, do you think I really didn’t have any means to deal with her?”
Song Jingren gritted his teeth. “What exactly do you want? Do you have to make things so difficult for everyone?”
“If you have the guts, why don’t you tell Wanwan about what you’re saying right now? As long as she agrees to let this person who hurt her and even wanted to destroy her family off, I have nothing to say.”
“Qiao Aiyun, you…” Song Jingren evidently didn’t expect her att.i.tude to be so tough.
“Song Jingren, I actually want to see how shameless you can be for her.”
With that, she hung up. On the other end, Song Jingren was so angry that he was ashen-faced. He hurled the phone, and it smashed against the wall, breaking in half.
Qiao Aiyun gripped her phone tightly, and her eyes were already red.
She had been married to Song Jingren for nearly twenty years and had a child with him. She had always tried to convince herself that there was still a need to retain this marriage.
She didn’t intend to be ruthless and really send Jiang Fengya to jail. She just wanted to see Song Jingren’s att.i.tude and give herself a reason to convince herself.
So she took a gamble. Now it seems that…
… her hesitation was so foolish that it was laughable.
She calmed down and adjusted her breathing. When she turned around to go back into the police station, she found Song Fengwan standing at the door.
“Wanwan, why are you out here?” Qiao Aiyun smiled and walked toward her. “I’ll tell them later to let you leave first. Don’t let this delay your studies. Leave these things for me to handle.”
Song Fengwan held her hand. “Mom.”
“What’s the matter?”
“I missed you.” She reached out her arms to hug her mother’s waist tightly.
Qiao Aiyun had been suppressing her feelings for too long. When Song Fengwan hugged her, she had a lump in her throat, and her fingers trembled slightly as she patted her back. “There’s people watching. Why are you acting like a child?”
“You’ve lost weight.” Song Fengwan held back her tears. She knew what her family would face next.
“Wanwan…” Qiao Aiyun’s eyes were red. “I originally wanted to wait for your college entrance examination to end before settling the family affairs. Now, it seems like… your father might…”
… not want us anymore.
Her body trembled slightly, and she didn’t dare to say these words.
Song Fengwan suddenly let go and giggled at her. “Didn’t you say you haven’t eaten much because you were driving all the way? I’ll go out and buy you some food.”
Without waiting for Qiao Aiyun to speak, she jogged out of the police station.
She knew very well that she would have to face some things sooner or later. But when it really came, her heart hurt so much that it was almost killing her.
She had just taken a few steps when a familiar black car stopped in front of her.
Before she could wipe away her fallen tears, Fu Chen, who just opened the car door, saw everything clearly.
Their eyes met for a moment before she quickly turned around to leave.
Fu Chen frowned and moved even faster to reach out his hand to hold her wrist, pulling her back.
His palm was warm and dry. He held her, restrained but not losing his strength, while her arm was cold and soft, seeming like it could not bear to be held.
The little girl’s eyes were red and glistening with tears. She looked away, as if she was trying her best to hold back some emotions.
“I heard something happened to you, so I came over to take a look. Why are you crying? Who bullied you?” Fu Chen didn’t have any experience in comforting people, so he could only try to slow down his tone.
He didn’t expect the little girl opposite him to cry even harder.
It was the first time these people who had been following Fu Chen had seen Third Master panic in front of a young lady.
From the side, s.h.i.+ Fang watched anxiously.
What is he doing at such a critical moment when he usually flirts with her so enthusiastically?!
F*ck!
Go hug her! Hold her in your arms and hug her tightly!
