Ji Wufeng's nose tingled, and he wiped the tears from Yanran's face, saying, "Yanran, don't cry. Big brother isn't angry. You're not a wild child. If anyone dares to insult you again, I'll make them pay, harshly, and big brother will help you!"
The few泼妇 (rude women) immediately glared and angrily said, "Great, I thought only this wild child was uncivilized, but it turns out the whole family is uncivilized. It's fitting that your family is going bankrupt!"
"You're about to be begging on the streets, and you're still so arrogant!"
Ji Wufeng turned to Yu Li and said coldly, "Teacher Yu, I already know what happened. These children insulted my sister first, and even beat her. I hope you can give me an explanation."
Yu Li rolled her eyes and said sarcastically, "I didn't see if they bullied Ji Yanran, but I saw Ji Yanran beating them. And from what I know, these children are all excellent in both character and studies. They would never bully or insult their classmates."
"The truth will be easy to figure out. Just pull up the classroom surveillance video, and everything will be clear."
Ji Wufeng said.
Because of frequent cases of child abuse, every classroom now has surveillance cameras. Since the incident happened in the classroom, the cameras must have recorded everything.
Ji Wufeng was very sure that with Ji Yanran's obedient and innocent nature, she would never start trouble or bully her classmates.
Sure enough, Yu Li's face changed immediately upon hearing this.
Since the Ji family was once prominent, the teachers pampered Ji Yanran, and the parents of her classmates warned their children to always please Ji Yanran and give in to her in everything. This made some children jealous of her from the start.
After learning that the Ji family was going bankrupt, the teachers started to be cold to her, and many children no longer approached her. Some mischievous children even began to bully her.
Ji Yanran had been enduring it all, but when some children called her a wild child and even hit her, she couldn't control herself and fought back.
"Sorry, the surveillance is broken, nothing is recorded."
Yu Li said coldly.
Ji Wufeng sneered, broken?
You're just afraid to show it to me, right?
The few泼妇 (rude women) also knew what kind of children they had raised and immediately chimed in, "Oh, bullying others and then turning around to accuse them, how shameless."
"With such students, I wouldn't dare let my son stay in this school. Expel this wild girl."
"Yes, if you don't expel her, we'll all withdraw our children."
Ji Wufeng was furious. Expulsion would have a significant impact on a child's academic record, leaving a permanent stain. He never thought these women would be so malicious toward a six or seven-year-old child.
Seeing the few黄脸婆 (yellow-faced women) speak like this, Yu Li panicked and said with a forced smile, "Ladies, please don't be angry. I promise I will give you a satisfactory resolution."
Then her face turned cold as she said to Ji Wufeng, "She's a wild child, and now she's with an uncivilized family. Take her home. She doesn't need to come to school tomorrow, so she doesn't ruin the whole pot with one bad apple."
Ji Wufeng was so angry that his whole body trembled. The right and wrong were clear, but the final result was to expel the bullied Yanran, which was heart-wrenching.
Yanran, however, reached out and touched Ji Wufeng's cheek, saying timidly, "Big brother, don't be angry. Yanran can skip school. This way, I can stay home every day and wait for Mom and big brother to come back. I have a secret to tell you, Yanran can cook now."
But Ji Wufeng knew that Yanran's happiest thing was going to school every day and being with her peers. She was just trying to comfort him.
"Okay, if you don't like this school, we'll find a better one."
Ji Wufeng picked up Yanran and prepared to leave.
But the few黄脸婆 (yellow-faced women) sneered, "You're about to go bankrupt and be kicked out of your home to sleep on the streets. You still want to find a better school? What a joke."
"I think you should hurry and find a spot under a bridge so you won't freeze to death in winter."
Ji Wufeng clenched his fists to control his anger. He was really worried that he might lose control and hurt these malicious women.
Just as Ji Wufeng was about to call a taxi to leave, two cars drove up quickly, and two middle-aged men got out of them.
Seeing one of the men, Yu Li's eyes lit up, and she ran over, saying with a fawning smile, "Principal Wu, what brings you here today?"
Principal Wu had a cold face and said, "Wasn't there a student fight today?"
Yu Li's expression turned nervous, and she said, "Yes, but such a small matter, why would you, Principal Wu, come in person? I've already handled it."
Principal Wu almost never dealt with such trivial matters, but today he came specifically.
"Handled it? Hmph, I'd like to hear how you handled it."
Principal Wu said with a cold snort.
Yu Li quickly said, "Principal Wu, it's like this. Ji Yanran is usually very unruly. Today, she had a conflict with several excellent students, and she even insulted and beat them, causing a very bad influence. So I decided to expel her."
"Is that really what happened?"
Principal Wu's eyes blazed with anger.
"Of course, these students and their parents can all testify."
Yu Li said.
"Yes, Principal Wu, it's exactly as Teacher Yu said. We can all testify."
The few黄脸婆 (yellow-faced women) quickly chimed in.
The other middle-aged man, carrying a briefcase, walked over to Ji Wufeng, extended his hand, and said with a smile, "You must be Mr. Ji Wufeng. I'm lawyer Wang Qiming. You can call me Xiao Wang."
Ji Wufeng didn't understand why a lawyer would come to him, but from his polite and even respectful attitude, it didn't seem like he was there to cause trouble.
"I am Ji Wufeng. What's the matter?"
Ji Wufeng said.
"Here is a document. Please take a look. If there are no issues, just sign it."
Lawyer Wang took out a document from his briefcase and handed it to Ji Wufeng.
Ji Wufeng took it and saw that it was a share transfer agreement, transferring 60% of the school's shares to his name, and it was a gift, requiring no payment from him.
"What does this mean?"
Ji Wufeng said.
Lawyer Wang quickly said, "Regarding the unfair treatment of your sister at this school, Old Master Mei is deeply distressed. To express his apology, he hopes to give this school to Ji Yanran as compensation. Since she is a minor, we need you to handle it on her behalf!"
