Chapter 33: It’s Not Worth It
“You ill-bred girl, apologize to my child!” Mrs. Hong became arrogant again.
“I have no upbringing when I hit someone, but your son spoke about prost.i.tution and body-selling. Is that your upbringing?” Lin Yin replied coldly. “Didn’t you ask him why I hit him?”
“You! You’re shameless! How could my son say such things?!” Mrs. Hong was furious. She glanced at Hong Yi. Her son was still young. How could he say such things? This must be slander!
“You know how to lie and ruin my son’s reputation at such a young age. I’ll beat you to death!”
Mrs. Hong, who had always been rough, felt a little smug when she met a parent like Supervisor Jiang. She almost forgot which school she was in.
As soon as Mrs. Hong finished speaking, Su Zhen’s deep and powerful voice came from the entrance of the infirmary. “Who are you going to beat to death?”
When everyone saw Su Zhen enter, Supervisor Jiang and Madam Hong were stunned. Mrs. Hong’s words of “I’ll beat you to death” fell into Su Zhen’s ears.
Half of Mrs. Hong’s anger dissipated. She glared at her son, who her heart ached for just now.
Their family had business dealings with the Su Family, but fortunately, Su Zhen did not know her. After all, Hong Yi’s father was the one who went to discuss business and did not bring her along.
Without the support of the Su Family, it would be difficult for the Hong Family’s business to advance. It was fine if they were beaten up by someone, but why did they have to be beaten up by the Su Family’s daughter?
Overwhelmed by shame and anger, Mrs. Hong was speechless and did not know what to do.
Supervisor Jiang was the first to react. He nodded at Su Zhen and even wanted to hand him a cigarette. He touched the cigarette in his pocket and realized that it was not of quality, so he could only continue to bow awkwardly.
Although he had never seen Su Zhen before, Su Zhen was a famous figure with a powerful background and was a frequent guest on various financial programs. Supervisor Jiang immediately treated him warmly and had even thought of an apology in his heart.
“She said she wanted to beat me to death. Beat me to death.” Supervisor Jiang smiled apologetically. Jiang Qi’s expression became even uglier. The surrounding students still wanted to laugh, but they could only hold it in and not dare to make a sound.
Su Zhen frowned slightly. There were so many people in the infirmary and he felt a little uncomfortable. Teacher Feng had already realized that it was inappropriate to have too many students and quickly waved his hand to chase them away. “Go back. Go back to cla.s.s and study. Stop looking!”
They still wanted to see what else was going to happen, but they could only leave obediently. After walking a few meters away, they couldn’t help but start discussing. “Wow, this is the first time I’ve seen someone call a parent like this. Amazing. Look at Jiang Qi’s expression. Let’s see if she’s still haughty in the future.”
“I thought Hong Yi was someone amazing. He’s just so-so. Let’s see who’s still afraid of him in the future!”
“Amazing! I’ve never seen such a scene!”
Su Zhen greeted Supervisor Jiang and Mrs. Hong before looking at Teacher Feng. Teacher Feng quickly said, “President Su, Miss Lin Yin beat them up today because... because...”
After waiting for a long time, this great Buddha finally arrived. Teacher Feng’s forehead was covered in sweat. He stopped talking halfway. He was also a little confused. He did not understand why they fought.”
“Lin Yin, apologize.” Before he could organize his words, Su Zhen gave Lin Yin an order. In his opinion, this small matter had already seriously occupied his time. If Lin Yin apologized, it would end sooner.
“No need, no need. It’s a small matter. A child’s joke!” Supervisor Jiang quickly apologized. “Jiang Qi, apologize to her quickly!”
Jiang Qi straightened her neck and did not say anything. She knew that she had been utterly embarra.s.sed. Her father might as well not say anything. Making his presence known would only embarra.s.s her even more.
“Apologize? You’re asking me to apologize without asking anything?” Lin Yin didn’t want to give in at all.
“If you don’t want to apologize, don’t hit people in the future.” Su Zhen frowned. He knew that his daughter was stubborn.
“I’ve never hit someone for no reason. They made up rumors about me in front of me. If I didn’t hit them, the Su Family would have been branded as prost.i.tutes. I can’t refute or hit them when they say that. Is this how the Su Family should be?”
“They humiliated and slandered me. Should I hide in the corner and not say a word? I’ve never suffered such grievances in the slums. Now that I’m at the Su Family, I should suffer silently?”
If she wanted him to care, she could only drag the entire Su Family down with her. Su Zhen’s expression became even uglier.
