“Parents, we will handle this matter seriously.”
Lin Siyin put away the mop like a female warrior sheathing her sword, immediately changed her expression, and asked with concern, “Will he be punished?”
Director He, “A warning punishment still has to be given.”
Lu Tong felt wronged. He had been well-behaved in school. But after just two days of following Qin Chu, he got a punishment.
In this situation, this thought naturally crossed his mind — — Was Qin Chu a jinx?
Lin Siyin hurriedly said, “Director He, my son cannot be punished.”
She was right. Old Zhou had previously met with Lu Zhiyan and discussed his admission to Peking University.
Lu Tong was already a sophomore in high school, and the number of guaranteed admission quotas was limited. However, given his grades and the various prestigious awards he had received, admission wasn’t a problem. It all depended on whether Lu Tong chose to take the college entrance exam or receive the recommended admission.
But if this punishment fell on Lu Tong, his admission would be temporarily jeopardized.
Qin Heng consoled her, “Don’t worry, Siyin.”
Lin Siyin spoke, “His homeroom teacher met with Old Lu a while ago to discuss his admission to Peking University. Once the punishment is handed down, it will all be in jeopardy.”
Qin Heng couldn’t help but cast his gaze on Lu Tong.
This kid was truly exceptional.
Qin Heng knew countless people, but when he looked at Lu Tong at this moment, he couldn’t help but admire him.
“There must be some misunderstanding,” Qin Heng continued to console her, “Qin Chu is also an alpha.”
Lin Siyin came back to her senses and looked at Qin Heng, “What?”
Qin Heng said, “That’s why I said that there must be some misunderstanding.”
Director He said, “We still need to think about it.”
He also understood Lu Tong’s situation, but tonight’s incident was outrageous. But how could there be students who would take teachers from the political and educational department for a run like they were walking a dog and playing with them?
As Qin Heng listened to Director He, his gaze shifted back to Lu Tong.
Qin Chu asked Qin Shiwu, “What are you doing here?”
Qin Shiwu, “…… Watching the bustling scene?”
Qin Chu, “Is it good?”
Qin Shiwu, “So-so. If you are to describe it in one word — —”
Qin Chu looked at Qin Heng for a while and then stared at Qin Shiwu, “Three generations are all in the same hall?”
He was becoming increasingly adept at this father-son joke.
Qin Shiwu gave a thumbs-up, “Your use of idioms is excellent! But I don’t think now is the time to discuss that. It’s better to worry about where things are headed.”
Director He asked, “Which class are you in? What are you doing standing in the political and educational department?”
Qin Shiwu was mentioned.
“I……”
Director He didn’t hesitate for a moment and pointed to the door of the office, “Go out.”
Qin Shiwu still wanted to say something, but he was dragged to the door by Ji Rang, who had come in, “You can’t watch from inside. Let’s lie down here and watch.”
Ji Rang took him to the window, and the former asked speechlessly, “Why did you run in so fast just then? I couldn’t hold you back, and you went in.”
Qin Shiwu, “This is a matter of great importance to my life. I have to treat it with caution.”
He has always spoken like a psychopath, and Ji Rang was well-versed in his way of reasoning. So he kept silent and hid tremblingly with Qin Shiwu under the flower bed by the window.
Director He turned his head and said, “Parents, this matter is very serious and must be handled seriously too. What do you think?
What else could she do? Lin Siyin was just keeping up appearances. Would Director He really punish his son?
She had no choice but to look at Lu Tong. In the end, she saw that Lu Tong had his back to her. From her angle, she could just see two teeth marks on the back of his neck.
They deeply overlapped and hadn’t yet faded.
Then, with quick hands and eyes, Lin Siyin grabbed Lu Tong.
As an omega herself, she knew all too well what those teeth marks meant.
Lin Siyin raised her voice, her tone distorted with fear, “What the hell is this?!”
Lu Tong instinctively touched the back of his neck.
Lin Siyin’s expression was incredulous, “You — — How could you have — —”
Lu Tong, seeing that he could no longer hide it, confessed, “…… Second differentiation.”
Lin Siyin’s face paled, “Why didn’t you tell us?”
Second differentiation — — This term was not unfamiliar.
The teachers in the office, also unprepared for this scene, exchanged bewilderment.
Director He was left speechless. He hadn’t expected the situation to suddenly take a turn.
Lu Tong lied, “I forgot.”
Lin Siyin’s eyes turned red, “How could you forget something this serious? I just……”
She had thought that Lu Tong was the alpha, preying on other omegas.
Now the roles had been reversed. Qin Chu was the alpha, and his son was the omega.
Lin Siyin, “Have you ever had a temporary mark?”
Lu Tong, sensing the situation was getting out of hand, nodded subtly.
Lin Siyin, “Then this temporary mark……”
Coincidentally, everyone looked at Qin Chu at the same time.
Qin Chu didn’t hide it either and said, “It’s mine.”
Lu Tong originally wanted to add faster: Don’t think too much. He helped me, and I owe him a favor.
But as soon as Qin Chu uttered the arrogant and cocky “Mine,” Qin Heng struck him in the leg with a stick.
Fortunately, Qin Chu ran fast. Otherwise, if this stick had come down, his leg would have needed six months to recover.
Suddenly, the office was like a pot of boiling water again, hot and lively.
Director He and the others badly burned about their heads from trying to put out the fire[footnote]fig. hard-pressed; under pressure (from a heavy workload, creditors etc)[/footnote]. Having just stopped Lin Siyin, they now swarmed to stop the enraged Qin Heng.
He thought to himself: =口= What sin had I committed!
Qin Chu and Lu Tong took turns getting beaten.
Director He and the others were exhausted from trying to persuade one and then the other. They came to school to be teachers! Not to be spinning tops!
“Parents, calm down.”
If Lin Siyin’s beating was a bluff just now, Qin Heng’s thunderous fury was very terrifying, and all the real blows landed on the person.
“You’re feeling pretty smug, aren’t you?”
Qin Heng rarely got angry. Qin Chu gave a surprised “Whoa” and quickly hid behind the screen.
He gritted his teeth and said, “You damn old man, you’re being so fucking ruthless.”
Lin Siyin, seeing that the situation was amiss, quickly grabbed Qin Heng, and their roles were reversed again.
“Old Qin! Old Qin, there must be some misunderstanding. You ask him first.”
“Misunderstanding? What kind of misunderstanding could there be?” Qin Heng held the same mop Lin Siyin had brought with her, “This little brat has been defiant of the law and lacking any sense of morality[footnote]lawless[/footnote] since returning to China and is capable of doing anything. If I don’t deal with him, he’ll be in jail tomorrow. Your mother spoiled you!”
Qin Chu confronted his father, and they opposed each other with equal harshness, and neither was prepared to give an inch. “How dare you insult my mother!”
Qin Heng, “How dare you talk back?”
Lin Siyin, at a loss for words, repeated Qin Heng’s words, and the scene became eerily familiar. She said, “Even if you’re angry, you can’t hit a child!”
Everyone was speechless: Ma’am, do you think you have the right to say that?
Everyone tried to pull Qin Heng back, but they couldn’t.
So Lu Tong had no choice but to pull Qin Chu to his feet. Lin Siyin said, “You take little Qin away first. We’ll deal with you two later!”
“Go? Who dares to take Qin Chu away? If I don’t teach him a lesson today, then my last name isn’t Qin!”
It turns out that when it comes to disciplining their sons, there was no distinction between wealthy CEOs and ordinary folks.
All angry fathers were awful.
Director He couldn’t stop Qin Heng. This man actually had the guts to beat up his own son.
Qin Chu was no pushover either. His dodging skills were exceptional, and it was obvious he’d been through a lot. His abilities to leap onto roofs, vault over walls, cross waves with subtle steps[footnote]The phrase describes light and agile movement, originating from a poem in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms and famously used by Jin Yong.[/footnote], and soar through the air had already been brought to the point of perfection[footnote]lit. the stove fire has turned bright green (allusion to Daoist alchemy) (idiom)[/footnote].
Lu Tong stepped between the two men. “Uncle Qin, it’s not what you think.”
Qin Heng angrily shouted, “Get out of my way! I won’t hit you.”
Lu Tong said, “Uncle Qin, listen to my explanation. There’s nothing between Qin Chu and me……”
Qin Heng, “Don’t defend him! How could I not know this brat’s character? He’s just superficial and only cares about looks! How could I not know what he’s up to?”
Qin Shiwu, watching his father being beaten, rejoiced a bit.
After all, half an hour before he had traveled through time, Qin Chu had been beating him in the political and educational department.
Karma is a b***! He never thought that he would travel through time and see Qin Chu getting beaten!
Awesome!
But seeing Lu Tong standing in the way and inexplicably getting beaten, Qin Shiwu couldn’t sit still.
He kicked open the door of the political and educational department at once, adding more fire to the political and educational department, which was already in a mess.
Lu Tong saw him running over in a hurry and immediately said, “What are you doing here!”
“I’m here to take you away! Enough romance? Damn, you’re just standing there in the middle getting beaten? You let him beat Qin Chu! He’s his son; he wouldn’t be able to bear to kill him!”
Qin Heng beating Qin Chu was non-negotiable.
On one side, Lu Tong had to deal with Qin Heng, and on the other hand, he had to pull away Qin Shiwu, who was causing trouble. Additionally, he also had to stand in front of Qin Chu, whose legs were broken. Momentarily, he felt extremely exhausted.
— — Even the wives of wealthy families in TV dramas wouldn’t be as exhausted as him!
Qin Heng’s stick fell again, and Qin Chu was beaten on the shoulder, which caused him to groan muffledly.
Lu Tong’s heart jumped, and he suddenly raised his voice, “Uncle Qin!”
With this sound, the whole office fell silent.
Lu Tong was really a little angry.
He appeared aloof and indifferent, but when he truly got angry, his anger was quite pronounced; even the adults were intimidated.
He frowned, took a deep breath, and said, “Uncle Qin, stop it! If you keep hitting — —”
Lu Tong’s next words were supposed to be, “If you keep hitting him, Qin Chu’s legs will be broken.”
He had barely gotten the first half of his sentence out, but after a series of attempts to break up the fight and the air being choked by the crowd, Lu Tong finally felt a tightness in his chest, and a nauseating stench of eggs rose from his stomach. Leading him to swallow the rest of his sentence directly.
He covered his mouth, doubled over in full view of the crowd, and went, “…… Ugh.”
The air froze for about ten seconds.
The stick in Qin Heng’s hand fell to the ground.
The sound was crisp and loud, and it was very obvious in the silent office at this moment.
Qin Shiwu stared at Lu Tong tremblingly, and as if he were blessed to the soul, made up the second half of Lu Tong’s words, “If you keep hitting…… There will be one corpse and two lives lost?”
Lu Tong：？
Wait?
What do you mean?
After he vomited, he raised his head and saw a group of petrified people.
Oh my god — —
Lu Tong had the late realization, and his facial expressions gradually faded.
…… Oh — — My — — God — —
He also became petrified.
Misunderstanding!!! That was not what I meant to say!!!!
