Chapter 23 - Defend
Even if you refuse to acknowledge HuMing, what was the meaning behind your life-threatening action?
Ye QiuXue, her senses heightened, scanned her surroundings as if searching for a crucial clue.
Abruptly, she spotted someone nearby pointing at their phone and having a hushed conversation.
Without any hesitation, she quickened her pace and headed towards them.
Meanwhile, everyone was shocked by the scene unfurling before them.
No one expected HuMing to act this way. Regardless of whether she was correct or wrong, she was his biological mother!
Most students had been distracted by SunZhe moments before and failed to notice what Lu GuiFang had done.
Only Han ShuYi stood aside with a furrowed brow and was thinking about how to handle this situation. Lu Guifang was too stupid. Instead of making a big deal from it, she had placed herself in an unredeemable situation.
Most of the students have begun to look at HuMing with sympathy. Public opinion might have shifted if not for HuMing\'s slap.
He looked at HuMing, his voice tinged with helplessness as if HuMing was the one acting unreasonably.
"HuMing, you\'ve gone too far this time."
"I suggest you not to say another word. Otherwise, you won\'t even have a chance to save yourself later."
HuMing stared coldly at Han ShuYi, causing his back to have a cold sweat. He realized HuMing wasn\'t bluffing. He had serious intentions of doing something to Lu GuiFang.
HuMing\'s words sounded like threats to him. But he dared not say anything more.
Seeing Han ShuYi remain silent, HuMing turned his gaze back to Lu GuiFang.
At this moment, Lu GuiFang finally recovered from her shock but was confronted with her burning cheeks and the crowd\'s stares. Her rage overcame her reason, and she struggled to get up from the ground before reaching out to grab HuMing\'s neck.
But before she could approach, HuMing kicked her to the ground, rolling her over twice before finally stopping.
ZhaoWei\'s quiet expression finally changed. He looked at HuMing, his hoarse voice tinged with displeasure.
"HuMing, do you understand what you are doing? Aren\'t you afraid of people gossiping about you?
"You two are already thick-skinned enough to come here and cause trouble, so why should I be afraid? I see her skin itching, so I\'ll help her out; what\'s the big deal? "
(TL: The skin itching here means she\'s looking for a beating.)
HuMing crossed his arms in front of himself. Although his words lacked respect, there was no sign of humor on his face.
Lu GuiFang, lying on the ground in obvious pain, gritted her teeth and yelled at HuMing.
"I will make you pay the price! If the school doesn\'t expel you, I\'ll come daily to cause a scene!"
Lu GuiFang focused solely on HuMing.
Regarding her physical pain, she would seek compensation from the Han family, which would undoubtedly tarnish their opinion of HuMing. With this strategy, Han ShuYi\'s position within the Han family would be strengthened.
Thinking about it, she couldn\'t help but be excited about her plan. She refused to back down as she pointed at HuMing.
Han LiTian frowned deeply, his face grim. HuMing\'s slap had clearly complicated the situation.
[He\'s too impulsive.]
Han Litian hesitated for a moment internally before making up his mind. Was it still the HuMing he knew if this matter was not resolved in this manner?
ZhaoWei moved forward to help his wife up but was pushed back by Lu GuiFang. She is determined to ruin HuMing\'s reputation!
"Pay the price? What face do you have to make Han HuMing pay the price?"
A voice drew everyone\'s attention. All eyes were drawn to the speaker. There, Ye Qiuxue stood, coldly staring at Lu GuiFang, who was on the ground, her eyes filled with anger.
Someone else\'s phone was in her hand, showing the scene that had just occurred.
Although that person was looking at HuMing at the time, his hand remained fixed, perfectly capturing the entire scene as it unfolded.
On the screen, when HuMing turned around, Lu GuiFang reached out and pushed him forward.
"I don\'t know on what grounds you speak of Han HuMing. But do you have the qualities of an adult when you accuse him of lacking upbringing? And why do you have the audacity to threaten HuMing when you refuse to acknowledge him as your child?"
When confronting Lu GuiFang, Ye QiuXue did not show the usual respect for her elders.
Because, in her eyes, Lu GuiFang lacked the qualities of a human.
If HuMing had been stabbed just now, wouldn\'t Lu GuiFang have attempted murder!?
Ye QiuXue shuddered involuntarily at the thought. Although HuMing could be annoying at times, he was changing, at least better than before.
Ye Qiuxue generally does her best to help such students. Not to mention that she and HuMing have a good relationship now.
Lu GuiFang could not maintain her pride in the face of Ye QiuXue\'s unexpected appearance and confrontation.
She stood up abruptly, pointing at Ye QiuXue and shouting angrily, and Han ShuYi couldn\'t stop her in time.
"Who are you? Why are you meddling with our business?"
Everyone who supported Hu Ming was now considered an enemy by Lu Guifang. Having come from the countryside, she naturally didn\'t recognize the girl in front of her.
Other students couldn\'t help but take a deep breath after hearing this. That\'s Ye QiuXue, a well-known student throughout the city. Is this woman crazy?!
Ye Qiuxue frowned. The woman in front of her was utterly unreasonable. As more students arrive for school, this could have a negative impact if it continues. She looked at the surrounding students and said,
"Other students, please return to your classrooms immediately. Do not forget that today is a regular school day."
When Ye QiuXue spoke, the gathered students scattered and returned to their classrooms. Even though gossip was all over their faces, the teachers who had just arrived led them inside.
Lu GuiFang became increasingly anxious as she watched the nearby students leave. She had planned to ruin HuMing\'s reputation in public, but now that everyone had left, who could witness her act?!
Thinking this, she grew even more disgusted with the girl before her.
"What are you up to?! Did Han HuMing tell you to do it? Instead of assisting others with such issues, a young person like you should behave properly. Do you have an inappropriate relationship with him?"
Lu GuiFang reached out to grab Ye QiuXue\'s coat, attempting to hold her firmly.
But the next moment, she screeched and was sent flying.
"You\'re truly nauseating. Unless locked up for a few days, you will never learn!"
Sirens sounded in the background.
Lu GuiFang looked at the flashing police lights behind her, which appeared particularly glaring to her.
