Chapter 266: I Am Xiaoqi’s Father
Upon seeing the district mayor walk over, the director greeted him nervously.
Xie Junhao’s mother shot him another look. As long as he performed well, she could let bygones be bygones and not touch the kindergarten.
“What happened?” District Mayor Xie was used to being flattered. When he was outside, he was a public servant. When he was around his subordinates, he acted in a domineering way. He looked at Ling Sheng with his tortoise-like eyes. “Are you the parent of the child who hit my Haohao?”
Ling Sheng said, “Let’s get this straight. Your child attacked first. My child retaliated in a justified manner and is thus protected by the law.”
“He’s protected by the law? Your child broke Haohao’s leg, yet you are still defending him. You should be defending my child.” District Mayor Xie, who had not expected her to dare talk back, was annoyed. “Are you not planning on apologizing and paying? Do you want to make a scene at the police station?”
She was just a child’s parent, so he could deal with her. There were also people he knew at the police station of the district. If she went in, she would not be able to speak.
“Hubby, make her apologize to me and our Haohao.” Xie Junhao’s mother shook her husband’s arm coquettishly and looked at Ling Sheng angrily.
Upon seeing the scene in front of her, Ling Sheng nearly vomited last night’s meal. She gave them a cold look and said, “Everyone’s speaking without evidence. The kindergarten has surveillance cameras. You’ll understand everything once you see the surveillance footage.”
District Mayor Xie looked at the director and drawled, “Is that so?”
The director, who was covered in cold sweat, shook his head hurriedly. “No, it happened in a blind spot on the stairs. There is no surveillance footage in our kindergarten to watch. Madam, apologize and compensate us. They are all cla.s.smates. There’s no need to make things so awkward.”
Ling Sheng knew that the director had been threatened, but she did not resent or hate him. That was how society worked. Sometimes, people had no choice but to submit. “Then how do you want me to apologize?”
Xie Junhao’s mother said, “Kneel down and apologize to me and my Haohao. His medical bills, emotional distress fees, and mental damage compensation should be at least two million. Right, hubby?”
District Mayor Xie nodded. “Yes, apologize and pay. Then, we won’t pursue this anymore.”
“What if I don’t apologize?” Ling Sheng thought the couple in front of her was hilarious. Who had given them the courage to say such a thing?
“What an uneducated being.” Xie Junhao’s mother smiled sarcastically as she looked at her husband. “Hubby, you don’t know this, but this little b*tch got pregnant before getting married. No wonder she gave birth to such an uncultured fatherless child. What kind of upbringing could she have given him?”
“Xiaoqi is not a b*stard. Xiaoqi has a father!” Xiaoqi’s eyes were red, and he looked as though he was an angered little beast. If Ling Sheng had not pulled him back, he would have dashed out to bite someone.
“You got angry simply because I said a few words?” District Mayor Xie raised his eyebrows and looked sideways at Ling Sheng. “You’re even wearing a mask. Are you too ugly to face others? Or is your job shameful?”
Ling Sheng clenched her fists tightly before she could persuade herself to calm down and not tear apart the ugly, disgusting couple opposite her. She did not care about anything. However, this concerned Xiaoqi, so she could not pretend not to care.
Yes.
Did she not know who Xiaoqi’s father was?
However, so what if Xiaoqi did not have a father? He could live better than any child with a father.
“Why are you glaring at me? Isn’t what my wife said the truth?” District Mayor Xie laughed out loud. “If your child has a father, call his father over and show him to us!”
“I’m the child’s father. Talk to me if there’s anything wrong.”
A magnetic, rich male voice echoed in the corridor and reached everyone’s ears. It was very soft on the surface, but it made one feel fear deep down.
