Free Web NovelChapter 657: Chapter 655: What Is a Sister-in-law?
Su Shuochi saw the resentment on the teacher’s face. His eyes bored into her, deep, sharp, and cold.
"Grandma Lin, if you’re going to spoil your grandson like this, then just have him transfer schools!
A child’s character is set early. Lin Xiaopang is already acting like a hooligan at his age. Can you imagine what he’ll be like when he’s older?" Gu Jiaojiao demanded, glaring at Grandma Lin.
Grandma Lin recognized Gu Jiaojiao. She knew this was someone even the Bao Family wouldn’t dare to offend.
’But my grandson can’t just get beaten for nothing. I don’t dare to cause trouble for Gu Jiaojiao, but can’t I at least make trouble for the school?’
So she turned to her grandson’s teacher with a defiant look. "Teacher, look at this! They show up and immediately try to force my grandson to transfer."
"Transfer schools? Susu’s mother, do you have any idea who Grandma Lin is?" the teacher’s voice rose. She thought Gu Jiaojiao was going too far.
Her barely-abated headache flared up again. ’I originally thought Susu’s parents would come, apologize to Grandma Lin,
pay some compensation, and this whole thing would be over. Who would have thought Susu’s parents would be even more unreasonable? What is this mess?’
"Since the teacher can’t bear to let Lin Xiaopang transfer, then my Susu will transfer instead! My Susu was just helping you teach Lin Xiaopang how to be a decent person,"
After saying her piece, Gu Jiaojiao swept out with her entourage, leaving no room for anyone else to speak.
...
The teacher wanted to say something more to persuade Gu Jiaojiao, but the woman’s imposing aura was so intense she couldn’t even meet her gaze.
Yet, she was so beautiful that even her high-and-mighty, arrogant posture wasn’t repulsive.
The anger in her gorgeous eyes held a unique allure, making her the very image of a rose with thorns.
’The only thing that makes me happy about this is hearing that Susu is transferring. I could almost clap my hands and cheer them on their way.’
The teacher watched their retreating backs and said wearily, "Grandma Lin, Susu’s parents said they’re transferring their daughter. So, can we just let this matter rest now?"
"Fine, I’ll do as you say, Teacher." Before, Grandma Lin hadn’t known that the girl who hit her grandson was Gu Jiaojiao’s daughter.
’If I’d known it was her, if I’d known she was coming to the hospital, I never would have stayed in this room!’
The teacher felt she had accomplished something remarkable. But the moment she returned to school, she was summoned to the principal’s office.
He immediately unleashed a torrent of curses. "...You idiot! Pack your things and get out. Now."
"Principal, what did I do wrong?" the teacher asked, completely baffled.
"You? Do wrong? No, I’m the one who was wrong. I was blind to have ever hired you at this school."
The principal gritted his teeth as he spoke, looking as if he wanted to tear her face off.
’How could I have such an idiot working for me? She doesn’t even recognize the major players of the Imperial City!’
’And she just kept kissing the Lin Family’s ass. Doesn’t she know that the ones who flaunt their power aren’t the truly scary ones?’
’The truly scary ones are the ones who are low-key. In fact, I only just found out myself after a call from the Board of Education. Several of the first-graders have extraordinary family backgrounds.’
’And their homeroom teacher, for the sake of that washed-up Lin Family, managed to offend all the most influential figures in the Empire.’
’And she dragged me down with her!’
"Principal, if you’re going to fire me, at least tell me what I did wrong," the middle-aged teacher asked defiantly.
’It’s not like I don’t have connections,’ she thought. ’The Bao Family are distant relatives of my husband, and Grandma Lin is a daughter of the Bao Family. My backing isn’t insignificant!’
"You still have the nerve to ask? Do you know who Divine Doctor Su Gu is?" A vicious glint appeared in the principal’s eyes.
"Divine Doctor Su Gu? What does a major figure like that have to do with us? Or with me being fired?"
The principal was so angry his temples throbbed. His voice grew hoarse. "You met her today."
"Who is he? I didn’t see any old men today," the teacher asked, frowning.
A flicker of doubt crossed her mind.
"Su. Gu." The principal snorted, his voice thick with rage. "You tell me. Who is she?"
Hearing the principal’s words, the teacher’s pupils shrank, and her body went rigid.
She muttered to herself, "Could it be... her?"
’No wonder she was so aggressive when she confronted me. So that was Susu’s mother.’
’They say even the Bao Family deeply respects the Divine Doctor.’ At this thought, beads of sweat broke out on the middle-aged teacher’s forehead.
She was overcome with regret. ’If I had known it was the Divine Doctor herself, I wouldn’t have dared to act so presumptuously, not even if my life depended on it...’
Susu’s father settled her into the back seat of the car. She pouted and asked, "Dad, Mom, am I really transferring schools tomorrow?"
’I don’t want to leave at all! Usually, when a classmate does something wrong, I just beat them up.
Then, the person I beat up learns their lesson, fixes their mistake, and even tries to be nice to me afterward. Most of my classmates like me, and all the girls really depend on me.’
"Sweet Susu, if you don’t want to transfer, then of course you don’t have to. We’ll just have your eighth nephew replace the principal. Problem solved. As long as our Susu is happy, Mom and Dad will make it happen for you."
Gu Jiaojiao stroked her daughter’s head and comforted her in a gentle voice. ’Her two sons are geniuses, but even geniuses have to study hard.
They’re so young, but they only come home once a month. With my daughter by my side, it’s inevitable that I dote on her, but I’m so afraid of spoiling her rotten!
Rich or poor, being a parent is just so hard!’
"Thanks, Mom!" Susu threw herself into her mother’s arms, cuddling up to her. She then turned to her father. "Is Daddy not going to scold his precious daughter anymore?"
"Daddy could never bear to blame you. But more than that, Daddy believes that Susu can solve her own problems. Just don’t make your mother angry. In Daddy’s heart, your mother always comes first."
Su Shuochi said to his daughter with a smile. As much as he adored his daughter, he treasured his wife even more.
"Hee hee, we already knew that," Susu said with a grin, nuzzling her head against her mother’s chest.
"You little rascal. As long as you know. Don’t make Mommy angry again, and you’ll be my little treasure."
"Oh my gosh! If I accidentally make Mommy angry, does that mean I’m not your treasure anymore?" Susu asked, sticking out her tongue and making a funny face.
"Darling, I dote on you and the boys the most," Gu Jiaojiao teased her husband. "You’re the people I love the most."
"Wow, Mom, you’re so brave, saying that right in front of Dad!" Susu chimed in.
"Did your father tell you that you’re his treasure behind my back?" Gu Jiaojiao asked her daughter with a laugh.
"Of course not! He always says that Mommy is his big treasure, and I’m just his little treasure."
"Our Susu is the best. You’re Mommy’s big treasure. Come here and give Mommy a cuddle." With that, Gu Jiaojiao cupped her daughter’s chubby cheeks and gave her a loud, smacking kiss.
Up front, Su Shuochi watched his wife and daughter being all lovey-dovey in the back seat, and a wide grin spread across his face.
’Now this is what life is all about!’
"Susu, in half a month, we’ll pick up your two older brothers. How about we all go to Hong Kong City to see Little LuLu?"
"Okay! That’s great! Uncle Zhou said that when Lu Lu gets older, she’ll be my sister-in-law. Mommy, what’s a sister-in-law?"
"A sister-in-law is your big brother’s or second brother’s wife," Su Shuochi explained from the front seat.
