As it approached noon, Xiao Junxuan and his wife, Xiao Wanshan, arrived at the library to pick up Xiao Jinli.
However, as they arrived at the entrance, they overheard someone discussing how Director Luoâs son had bullied a girl, only to be taught a lesson by her in return.
All three agreed that the girl must be their own Xiao Bao (sister).
Because, ever since she was a child, their sister Xiao Bao has always been strong and would never lose a fight.
But this made them even more anxious.
This was Director Luoâs son after all.
If he is the chief government officer in Jianggan City, his family must certainly hold considerable power.
They were worried about Xiao Bao (sister) getting into trouble.
Even though they were worried, they couldnât immediately enter and had to wait at the door.
After a while, Xiao Siqian and Xiao Jinli came out.
Seeing them come out, Xiaoâs mother immediately looked nervous and asked anxiously, âXiao Bao, they said that inside the library a chubby kid tried to snatch a book from a girl and wanted to beat her up when he failed. But instead, she beat him up. Was that girl you?â
Xiao Jinli nodded and responded, âYes, itâs me!â
Xiaoâs mother was shocked and asked urgently, âAre you okay then? They say the chubby kidâs family is powerful and influential, and that his parents came later. Child, if something happened, why didnât you call us?â
Xiao Jinli immediately reassured her, âMother, donât worry, Iâm fine. The chubby kidâs parents did come, but they were really nice and reasonable. After they arrived, they punished their kid and they even apologised to me.â
Xiao Junxuan looked around subtly and asked, âBut I heard that they are powerful and influential, couldnât their apology be just for public show, and then they take revenge later in private?â
Xiao Siqian responded, âThe parent is Director Luo from the Yayi Bureau, he seemed very honest and upright, he probably wouldnât.â
Xiao Jinli then added, âYes, he probably wouldnât. After Director Luo apologized to us, he invited us for a meal, but I declined. Then he left his phone number, saying he could be contacted if needed.â
After hearing this, Xiaoâs father paused for a moment and asked, âDirector Luo?
Do you mean Luo Sanbiao?â
âIt seems thatâs his name!â Xiao Jinli added.
Xiaoâs father continued, âIf it is him, then he wouldnât be the kind to seek revenge after a conflict. His character is actually quite good.â
Still worried, Xiaoâs mother asked, âIf he is truly an upright person, then why would his child behave in such a bully manner?â
ââ¦â After thinking about it for a moment, Xiao Jinli replied, âMaybe heâs often busy with work and thus, negligent in disciplining his child. But, he also said that he would properly educate his child after this incident.â
After hearing this, Xiaoâs father nodded and said, âWife, dont worry too much. Letâs wait and see. To him, weâre just nobodies. Perhaps he wouldnât condescend to take revenge.â
Upon hearing her husbandâs words, Xiaoâs mother temporarily put aside her worries.
She suggested, âItâs getting late, letâs find a place to eat.â
Meanwhile, after Luo Sanbiao brought back his son Luo Zhiqiang home, the family was both heartbroken and angry at the sight of the boyâs beaten face.
âOh my, my precious child, who beat you to the point where your face is bright red from swelling? Iâm going to find them and demand an explanation.â
Both of the women, one calling him precious and the other darling, were moved to tears by their distress.
Although Grandpa Luo didnât express his feelings obviously, his facial expression showed that he was distressed too.
Madam Luo immediately found some anti-swelling medication in the house to apply to Luo Zhiqiang. As the medication was being applied, Luo Zhiqiang grimaced in pain, causing the two women in the house to ache for him even more.
Grandma Luo scolded angrily, âJust who was the heartless person that beat up my grandson? Donât they know the status of my precious grandson?â
Only then did Luo Sanbiao understand why his son, at such a young age, was already acting high and mighty, bullying others with his authority.
Luo Zhiqiang cried loudly in a wronged manner, and sobbed, âGrandmaâ¦it was dad who beat me up. He hit me because of a stranger!â
âHa, it was your dad?â
Upon hearing Luo Zhiqiangâs words, both Madam Luo and the others were shocked, as they all then gazed at Luo Sanbiao.
Luo Sanbiao wore a frustrated expression and yelled, âYes, it was me! Iâll tell you, this stinking kid deserves to be beaten up!â
âOkay Luo Sanbiao, so it was you who beat up our precious sonâ¦you⦠Iâll fight you to the death!â Madam Luo charged at Luo Sanbiao and started to hit him all over his body. She cried as she scolded, âYou jerk, have you lost all your humanity â to even beat your own son, and to beat him so badly. Ohâ¦l feel so much pain.â
Grandma Luo also turned around and started berating Luo Sanbiao, âYou useless boy, what has my precious grandson ever done to you for you to be so cruel and heartless. My poor grandson, his face is swollen red, he must be in terrible pain.â
At that point, Grandpa Luo picked up a stick from the corner and started hitting Luo Sanbiao. As he was hitting him, he sternly said, âSince you can hit your son, then I can hit my own son too!â
Dodging his fatherâs stick, Luo Sanbiao shouted loudly, âDad, Dad, listen to me!â
However, his father ignored him.
Looking at his family, who were overly indulgent to his child, Luo Sanbiao thought about what Xiao Jinli had said and made a decision.
He grabbed the stick from his father and said sternly, âEnough! Have you all had enough of your fussing?âSe??ch ?ew???e? .o?g on ?oo?l?
Upon seeing the sudden stern expression on his husbandâs (sonâs) face, everyone was shocked and stopped in their tracks, their faces showed surprise.
Throwing away the stick in his hand, Luo Sanbiao shouted, âIs this the way you pamper this child of yours? You are unconditionally protecting and spoiling him without investigating right from wrong, without asking about the truth of the issue. Do you know the consequences of pampering him in this way? Itâs overindulgence! Itâs because of your overindulgences that he dares to act like a tyrant out there, causing troubles! How is this, do you wish to ruin him in the name of expressing your love for him?â
Upon hearing Luo Sanbiaoâs words, their expressions changed.
Watching their changing faces, Luo Sanbiao continues, âAnd do you know what he did today? Fine, Iâll tell you. He went to the library and tried to snatch a book from a little girl to read. The little girl, whoâs just over ten years old, didnât want to give the book to him, so he wanted to beat her up.
âBut that girl fights back, and he still boasts shamelessly that his dad is me, Luo Sanbiao, the director of the Yayi Bureau. He threatened that if the girl didnât let him read the book, heâd have her locked up! Do you see what kind of things heâs been doing?â
However, Grandma Luo said in a low voice, âItâs just a book. If our boy wants to read it, shouldnât the girl give it to him?â
Upon hearing Grandma Luoâs comment, Luo Sanbiao was furious. He shouted angrily, âMom, will you only be satisfied if Iâm ruined?â
Upon hearing this, Grandma Luo was taken aback and stuttered, âWhat? How could that possibly happen?â
