Chapter 498: Chapter 505

Chapter 505 Gentleman “Please watch what you say, Mrs. Wang!” the principal warned.

“What? Am I wrong? It’s either that or the Nan family had paid you off!”

“Mrs. Wang, say whatever you want about me, but please be careful of your choice of words.” The principal was getting more and more anxious.

“Will you just shut up? Shut your mouth!” Wang Shengli finally had enough of his wife.

“Why are you still siding with that b*tch?”

Slap!

Mrs. Wang received another slap across her face.

“Again? How dare you slap me again?” That was the last straw. Mrs. Wang raised her hand and slapped her husband.

“What the f*ck? How dare you hit me back? Do you have any idea how much pressure I’m under?”

Wang Shengli cursed.

Then, the couple started arguing in the principal’s office.

The principal never anticipated the couple to act so brazenly when he decided to invite them into his office. “Hey! Stop it, you two! You’re both influential individuals. Can’t you guys be more civilized?”

After a while, the principal finally managed to break them apart. “I’ve asked the both of you here to have a proper conversation. This is not the time or place for you to bicker!”

“You old fool! I won’t allow you to expel my son! If you insist on not letting him attend school here, I’ll finish you! I’ll get my workers here to bring the whole place down within an hour!” Mrs. Wang pointed her finger at the principal and screamed at the top of her lungs. She was behaving like a hooligan.

“How dare you?” The principal didn’t take the threat well.

At first, he was treating the two of them with the utmost respect due to their social status. However, he didn’t see the point anymore after the scuffle they had in his office.

Indeed, it was about time he stood up to them.

“Why not? It’s just a kindergarten. Do you think my workers can’t manage that?” Mrs. Wang asked arrogantly.

“No, I don’t think so. We’re part of the Education Group under the Nanshi Corporation. Are you sure you’re ready to go up against the Nanshi Corporation? Since I’ve already revealed so much, I guess I should just tell you the truth. All this while, the school had been turning a blind eye to your son’s bullying issues. However, he laid hands on Sir Chen’s daughter this time around! As if that’s not bad enough, Mr. Wang came and asked for an apology from the other party without even finding out what had happened! How innocent of me to think that was it! Mrs. Wang, on the other hand, came and gave Sir Chen’s woman a slap across her face today! Since both of you are so capable of offending them over and over again, please bring your son away. The school can’t afford to deal with you and your family anymore! Please forgive me for being straightforward, but since Sir Chen’s kids are attending school here, I’m sure whoever dares to bulldoze the place down will be forced out of Flower City.”

Although the principal was a perfect gentleman, he could really deliver some harsh words when needed.

“Principal, fine. You can expel my son. However, I have a favor to ask,” Wang Shengli pleaded.

“What is it? If you’re asking me to write your son a recommendation letter, I’d be more than happy to do so.”

“That’s a trivial matter at this point. I have something more important I need your help with.”

“What is it? I’m just an educator. I don’t think I can be of much help.”

“I’d like to ask if you could help me arrange a meeting with Sir Chen.”

“Are you crazy, Wang Shengli? Why would you still want to see him?” Mrs. Wang asked impatiently.

“Get lost! This is none of your business! If I don’t make this right, trust me when I say your luxury way of living is coming to an end!” Wang Shengli roared.

“I can’t help you with that. But since Ms. Ding is here to attend the parent-teacher conference, why don’t you ask for her help instead?” The principal shook his head and continued, “I’ve already said what I needed to say. Your son is no longer welcome here. As for your favor, I’m afraid there’s nothing I can do to help. You guys can sort it out yourselves.”

With that, the principal gestured for them to leave.

“Okay. I better hurry and look for Ms. Ding, then!” As Wang Shengli was saying that, he hurried out of the principal’s office.

To his surprise, he bumped into Ning Ran and her kids at the office entrance.

Although the conference had ended quite some time ago, Ning Ran didn’t want to squeeze with the crowd. Hence, she waited for everyone to leave before making her way out.

Since both she and Nan Chen were busy working most of the time, she wanted to show her appreciation to the educators while bringing her kids along.

Unfortunately, she bumped into Wang Shengli and his wife at the entrance of the office. What’s with my luck today? Why do I have to see them again?

“Hi, Ms. Ding! You came just in time! I have a favor to ask.” Wang Shengli wore a smile on his face.

“Daddy will not see you,” Dabao suddenly blurted.

Ning Ran was taken aback as she stared at her son in bafflement. How does he know that?

Wang Shengli was stunned momentarily as well before he smiled and said, “Little Master of the Nan family, how did you know I want to see your daddy?”

“Although you’re an evil person, you’ve been treating my mommy with a broad smile on your face.

Obviously, you’re scared of my daddy. I bet you’re in hot waters now that you’ve offended my daddy.

Hence, you’re here to resolve the issue. However, you can’t see my daddy. That’s why you’re here to ask my mommy for help.” Dabao kept a straight face as he spoke.

“Wow! You’re incredible! That’s what I was thinking too!” Erbao chimed in, not wanting to be left out.

“You’re right, Little Master. I do wish to see Sir Chen, and I’d like to ask Ms. Ding to help me. Besides, I’d like to apologize again for my silly wife’s actions earlier on. I’d do anything in exchange for forgiveness. Ms. Ding, I’m sorry I’ve failed as a husband and a father. I’m sorry I’ve offended you and Sir Chen. I sincerely hope I can be forgiven.” Wang Shengli was so humble that it made Ning Ran feel bad for him.

“What do you want from Nan Chen, exactly?” Ning Ran asked.

“I just want to ask for forgiveness and nothing else.”

“I doubt it. My daddy is so busy he won’t have time for you. I bet you have ulterior motives,” Dabao said.

Ning Ran instantly gave Dabao a hard stare and scolded, “Kids are not supposed to chime in when grown-ups are having a conversation.”

“Yes, Mommy.” Dabao answered obediently.

“Little Master is right. Sir Chen is indeed too busy. That’s why I’m having trouble meeting him. Hence, I’d like to ask Ms. Ding to help me arrange a meeting with Sir Chen. I’d be deeply grateful,” Wang Shengli pleaded.

Ning Ran was unsure of what to do. I don’t wish to nose around Nan Chen’s business. However, Wang Shengli doesn’t seem like he’d leave me alone if I refused to help him.

“Could you wait for a moment? I want to bring my kids inside to thank the principal. After that, I’ll ring Nan Chen, is that okay? I don’t think it’s appropriate for you to keep holding me up.” In the end, Ning Ran gave in.

“Of course! Take your time, Ms. Ding. I’ll be waiting right here.” Wang Shengli stood aside immediately.

After watching Ning Ran walk into the office, Mrs. Wang couldn’t help but scold, “What’s with you today, Wang Shengli? Since when were you afraid of anyone? Why are you acting like a slave today?”

“You’re a fool! Did you know all the company’s projects were halted because we’ve offended the Nan family? If we don’t seek their forgiveness right away, the company is going bankrupt soon!” Wang Shengli thundered.

“What? Is it that serious?”

“You’re such an ignorant fool! All you do is run your mouth!”

“If that’s the case, you better beg her for forgiveness when she comes out. We can’t go bankrupt! Kneel before her if necessary!” Mrs. Wang was getting scared.
