"Yes, Teacher Tang, my son's grades were decent this time. Thank you for taking care of Senjie," Qin Manwen's demeanor softened instantly, smiling kindly at Tang Yuqing.
"Director Qin, it's my duty as a teacher!" Tang Yuqing replied respectfully with a courteous smile.
"Director Qin, the graduation ceremony is about to start. Please join us," the vice-principal said, hurrying over with two teachers, bowing slightly as he invited her.
"Alright, I understand," Qin Manwen nodded gracefully. Turning to Wen Ting, she said softly, "You're Wen Ting, right? You're pretty, and I hear your grades are excellent. But you'd better understand your place and stop harassing my son. You two are from different worlds."
With that, she gave Li Bin a disdainful glance. "Young man, be careful. Some people aren't for you to offend. Apologize to my son now, and I'll let this slide."
Apologize? Her son was clearly in the wrong, and she wanted him to apologize?
Li Bin clenched his teeth, glaring coldly at the haughty Qin Manwen, itching to slap this arrogant, insufferable woman!
"Li Bin! This is Deputy Director Qin Manwen of the Education Bureau, Wang Senjie's mother. Do you know her?" Tang Yuqing subtly tugged at Li Bin, who looked ready to snap, giving him a warning look while smiling awkwardly.
Tang Yuqing knew about the incident but pretended otherwise, subtly warning Li Bin about Qin's status to keep him from crossing this powerful woman.
The sharp-witted Wen Ting caught on, tears in her eyes as she tugged Li Bin's sleeve. "Brother-in-law... Let it go... I'm graduating soon, and I won't see these people again... Let's just go!"
Seeing Li Bin's angry but restrained expression, Wang Senjie smirked triumphantly.
"Young man, my patience is limited. Don't let a moment of bravado make you and your sister regret this for life!" Qin Manwen sneered arrogantly, her eyes brimming with confidence.
Li Bin gritted his teeth, fists clenched, taking a deep breath. Ultimately, he held back from arguing further, grabbing Wen Ting. "Little sis, let's go!"
"I'll find out about you soon enough. Don't regret today's decision!" Qin Manwen's haughty, scornful voice followed as Li Bin and Wen Ting walked away.
Her melodious, crisp voice, in that moment, filled Li Bin with disgust.
Did this woman think she could do whatever she wanted just because her family had money and power? Did she think he was helpless against her?
Just wait! A malicious sneer curled on Li Bin's cold face.
A wicked, bold idea began forming in his mind! In the past, he'd have been powerless against someone like her, even fearing her retaliation.
But now, things were different! Today, Li Bin would make this overbearing woman pay!
"Li Bin, Wen Ting, don't be impulsive. Wang Senjie's mother is the deputy director of the district's Education Bureau, and his father runs the biggest real estate company in the area. Their family's influence is immense. They have countless ways to deal with ordinary people like us. Wen Ting's grades are great, but if they interfere, she could face trouble. Just swallow your pride for now! Sometimes, you have to bow under pressure. Nothing happened that night, right? Wen Ting won't be in the same school as him anymore. Let it go," Tang Yuqing said, catching up to them in the auditorium, still worried and trying to console them.
Her words, though meant to comfort, stung Li Bin and Wen Ting's strong sense of pride, making them feel awkward and humiliated.
Wang Senjie was clearly the instigator, yet because his family was rich and powerful, the blame always fell on ordinary people like them?
To Tang Yuqing, it almost seemed like they were the ones provoking Qin Manwen and Wang Senjie!
Power was truly a magical, omnipotent thing! It could subtly twist everyone's sense of right and wrong!
"Yuqing, is Director Qin speaking on stage later?" Li Bin ignored Tang Yuqing's advice, staring coldly at Qin Manwen as she was ushered to the stage, asking a seemingly unrelated question.
"Yes, someone like her? Even our principal bows and scrapes to her. She's not someone we can afford to cross. Be careful. Before, Wang Senjie broke another student's leg, and it was swept under the rug. The school didn't dare touch him. His father made a few calls, and it was all hushed up. The student's family had to transfer schools to avoid trouble," Tang Yuqing sighed helplessly.
