Stealing Your Heart Chapter 350
“What are you going to do?” asked Lin Xinyan as she turned to the fuming lady. It was a ridiculously minor issue, but that woman insisted on making it bigger than it actually was.
“Oh, we’re putting on an act, are we?” scoffed the woman.
Lin Xinyan frowned. “Your husband may be powerful, but will he really do something to us just for this?”
The entitled woman stared like Lin Xinyan was an alien. Is this not how the world operated? There is no such thing as being fair. We may not live in the past where social rankings were clearly marked, but are those social statuses really gone?
The woman glared discriminatorily at Lin Xinyan. The former thought that the latter was pretty, but lacked a pair of huge breasts. As such, the woman straightened her back and showed off her breasts before saying, “What corporation does your husband own? I will have my husband take good care of him.”
The woman deliberately emphasized the words “take good care” when she spoke.
Anyone who could afford to send their children to a kindergarten like that had to be pretty well off, so the lady asked that question.
Lin Xinyan understood the underlying threat, and she was upset about it.
So she’s abusing her power to bully us, huh?
The principal walked over at that moment. The others might not know who Lin Ruixi and Lin Xichen were, but the principal was well aware of it. Zong Qifeng had said that the kids’ identities should not be exposed, so only the principal knew who the kids really were.
“I’ve looked into the matter. Kids hug and kiss all the time when they play together. Their form of love is more innocent and is different from our love. I have been working in this industry for over thirty years, and I have seen countless similar incidents. Most parents are okay with it, so for the sake of the children hanging out nicely in the future, I’d like to ask both sides to calm down and make up. Will that be okay?” asked the principal.
The lady sneered, “My daughter is her father’s precious little girl. I don’t have to make this a big deal, but the deputy mayor might not see things the same way.”
It was obvious that the lady was abusing her husband’s power.
“Are you really the deputy mayor’s wife, though?” asked the principal. He had seen the uglier side of the world. The deputy mayor was almost sixty years old, so how could his wife and daughter be that young?
That simply didn’t make sense.
The glow in the woman’s eyes flickered for a while before she calmed down and insisted, “All you need to know is that she is the deputy mayor’s daughter.”
Lin Xichen saved the video he just made. He had been recording the woman since the principal stepped foot inside the office. At first, he only wanted to share the video online and teach that entitled woman a lesson, but after hearing the principal’s words… This isn’t as simple as I assumed, thought Lin Xichen.
It was obvious that something else was up.
Lin Xichen tugged at his baby sister’s arm and instructed, “Apologize to her.”
Lin Ruixi wasn’t happy about that, so she argued, “But she’s the one who kissed you first. You’re my big brother, and only me, Mommy, and Daddy can kiss you. Who does she think she is? What gives her the right to kiss you?”
Lin Ruixi was rather possessive.
Lin Xichen winked at his sister and said, “Be good. Didn’t you hear how powerful her dad is? We have no choice but to apologize.”
“But…”
“Do you trust me?” interrupted Lin Xichen.
Lin Xinyan crouched down beside her daughter. That woman’s attitude was terrible, but Lin Ruixi still attacked someone, and that was wrong too. “Ruixi, we’re not supposed to push others when conflict arises. A gentleman uses his words, not his fist.”
“But I’m not a gentleman. I’m just a pretty girl,” refuted Lin Ruixi as her big, round eyes glowed innocently at her mother.
Lin Xinyan was speechless.
She was trying to come up with solutions to convince her daughter to apologize when the phone in her pocket suddenly started vibrating. She fished her phone out and accepted the call. Zong Jinghao’s voice rang up soon after, “Where are you?”
Lin Xinyan shifted her gaze to her children before replying, “I’m out. What’s wrong?”
Zong Jinghao didn’t know the details either, so he didn’t answer. He simply said, “Send me your address. I’ll go pick you up.”
Lin Xinyan took a deep breath before replying, “I’m at the kindergarten.”
Zong Jinghao frowned a little. He tilted his head down to check his watch and noted that it wasn’t time to pick the kids up yet. What is she doing in there?
Zong Jinghao made a U-turn and drove toward the kindergarten.
