The skinny childâs parent noticed Gu Qingcheng asking her a question and immediately shot her a look.
âShh, lower your voice,â she hurriedly whispered, âIf you speak up for me, I promise not to forget about your money.â
Money was the last thing Gu Qingcheng needed, yet she was being humiliated by the man in front of her.
NO!
To be more precise, she had been humiliated by this woman in front of her son!
The bodyguard protecting her wanted to push her away, but she signaled him to back off with a look.
âBaby, who do you think pushed whom first?â she asked Huo Xuan gently.
Huo Xuan didnât expect his mother to ask him to answer this question. He was stunned for a moment, seeing the gentleness and seriousness in his motherâs eyes.
He knew that his mother would protect him, and she had taught him to be brave and upright.
âYour son pushed someone else first,â Huo Xuan replied.
Hearing Huo Xuanâs words, Gu Qingcheng threw the money in her hand at the parentsâ faces.
âBribe me? I donât lack money!â
The parent who had wanted Gu Qingcheng and her son to lie for her looked extremely embarrassed.
âDid you hear that? You pushed my son first,â the fat childâs parent scolded the thin childâs mother, âYouâre really immoral. You didnât even apologize when you hit my sonâs head. You even pulled someone else to lie for you. Youâre a person with bad morals!â
âYou⦠Youâ¦â The person who was scolded was so ashamed that they couldnât speak.
âApologize to my son!â the fat childâs family shouted angrily.
âIâm sorry.â
âBaby, you did the right thing,â Gu Qingcheng watched as the whole thing ended. She kissed Huo Xuanâs cheek and said, âYou have to admit when youâve done something wrong. You canât lie.â
âThis is because your mother taught you well,â Huo Xuan said obediently.
âYou and your son shouldnât care about such a trivial matter,â a parent nearby added, âItâs unnecessary. Youâre meddling in other peopleâs business. All of us saw that skinny child pushing someone. Actually, itâs fine if someone gets pushed at the amusement park. Itâs not a big deal as long as the child isnât seriously hurt.â
Gu Qingcheng wasnât happy to hear that. She snapped, âMind your own business? My son was pushed down, and I havenât even settled the score with that person. How can I be a busybody if I explain the whole thing clearly? Does it really have to wait until a child is seriously hurt before holding someone accountable? Tell me!â
Huo Xuan saw that his mother was angry and quickly comforted her. âMom, thereâs no need to pay attention to such people.â
âNo,â Gu Qingcheng glared angrily at the person who had criticized her. âSpeak!â
âI mean no harm,â the man mocked Gu Qingcheng. âWhy are you being so fierce? Iâm just saying that you donât have to care about these small things. Just take your child and leave. Why are you standing out?â
âStanding out? A person must have at least three principles and morals,â Gu Qingcheng raised her voice and became even angrier. âYou said you saw the whole fight, and instead of standing up for me, youâre blaming me for being nosy?â
The more she spoke, the angrier she became. âThe world doesnât lack good-for-nothings like you! When you encounter something unfair, you can choose to hide in a corner and remain silent, but donât mock or slander me, who is braver than you, because the sunlight we fight for will shine on you!â The parent dragged the child away after Gu Qingchengâs retort.
âMom, donât be angry,â Huo Xuan comforted his mother gently. âItâs not worth getting angry over an outsider.â
If Gu Qingcheng hadnât brought her son to play today, she wouldnât have let go of the person who had just insulted her.
She looked at Huo Xuanâs worried expression angrily and quickly took a few deep breaths to calm herself down so that she wouldnât scare her son. âMom, donât be angry. This is a small matter.â
Huo Xuan heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that his mother had calmed down.
âMom, Iâm hungry. Letâs go have dinner,â he changed the topic. âI saw that the childrenâs meal here looks delicious. Can we have dinner here tonight?â n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âOf course,â Gu Qingcheng replied.
In the dining room, Gu Qingcheng booked a private room for the convenience of eating.
Huo Xuan looked at the cute-looking childrenâs meal and happily ordered it.
Gu Qingcheng checked the time and contacted Huo Sicheng.
Since it was already six oâclock, she and her son wouldnât be returning to Wanmei Villa for dinner. She had to inform Huo Sicheng in advance.
Her call was picked up instantly. She said gently, âHubby, what are you doing?â Huo Sichengâs eyes were filled with gentleness. âIâm still busy with the company.â
Gu Qingcheng listened to Huo Sichengâs deep, magnetic voice and smiled happily. âI thought you were on your way back to the villa at this time.â âYou and your son arenât home,â Huo Sicheng said softly. âIâll be back later.â
âIâm not happy.â Gu Qingchengâs face turned sour when she heard Huo
Sichengâs words. âI told you not to investigate me, and you still did this.â
âI didnât check on you,â Huo Sicheng immediately explained. âI called back to the villa to ask if you and Huo Xuan were home. The maid said that you werenât home, so I knew you werenât there.â
Gu Qingcheng was stunned. No one was protecting Huo Xuan during school?
However, Huo Sicheng had told her that Huo Xuan was protected. âWhat exactly are you trying to say, Mr. Zhao?â she asked, her frown deepening..
