That afternoon, all the parents of Zhou Hongmei and her gang were called to the school. When they heard that the school called them because of childrenâs conflict, some parents look unhappy.
âTeacher, if something happen then just give us a phone call, why should you make us go to school?â
âYeah, teacher, quickly say whatâs the matter, I still have to go back to factory. If I leave work for too long, they will deduct half a day wage.â
âYour children beat other student, so we inform you all to come over and deal with this matter.â Facing these roguish people, the homeroom teacher has to hold back his temper.
After hearing this, the parents glanced at the skinny little girl standing next to them.
âYou said she was beaten?â A parent pointed to Su Bei and said, âIsnât she completely okay standing here now?â
âYeah, didnât look like she has been beaten.â
âIsnât it normal for little kids to fight with each other? This girl looks so thin and small, so she surely an easy target. When I was in school, I was often got beaten because I was so short.â
âSince we send our baby to the school for studying, then how they become is surely the school responsibility. If they fight at school, it should be teachers business.â
âTeacher, if there is nothing more, I will leave.â
âWait!â Facing the unreasonableness of these parents, the head teacher who originally staying at the side finally couldnât stand it anymore. A long-lost sense of justice surging from inside.
âYou said itâs reasonable for your children to beat someone at school? They dragged their classmate to the toilet and brutally beat her. Thatâs intentional harm, a crime! Yet they also upload the video on the internet, and maliciously spreading a rumor. This is another crime! These kind of students, we need to expel them.â
The head teacherâs words made the parents change their expressions: âTeacher, your words are too much. We paid tuition, so how could you expel our children? Well, isnât it just a fight between children, how can it be a crime, nonsense.â
âYour children are 14 years old, a 14 years old child already subjected to some criminal responsibility. And donât say that they are just a little kid. Today was campus bullying, but if they continue like this, once they grow up, wonât they became murderer and arsonist?!â
âIf you as their parents do not care, then let us handle it. Our school approach to resolve this matter is to report the police.â Her words successfully frightened the parents.
âWhy should you call the police!â
âDonât call the police, isnât it because our child beat other child? Then Iâll pay compensation. Wonât it be enough if we give her money?â
Hearing this, the head teacher frowned: âYou donât even realize the seriousness of this matter. Is this a problem that can be solved by money? â
At that moment, Su Beiâs voice suddenly rang from the corner of the office, shocking everyone present.
âSu Bei, you think clearly, if these parents pay compensation, it wouldnât be easy to chase this matter later.â
âI knowâ, Su Bei gave the head teacher a grateful face : âLet them pay the money to me.â
âAlright.â The head teacher pondered a bit and nodded.
Just now she was too emotional. The school didnât want to make a big deal about it, and even if the police were called, the preperators were all still underage. The police at most will just give a warning and make them pay compensation. So let the parents pay some money was indeed the best solution.
âLook, didnât I say to just close this matter peacefully? Iâll pay the money. Is 100 yuan enough?â a parent asked.
âOnly 100?â The head teacher coldly stare at the parent: âDidnât you see how your children beat her?! Nowadays even just going to the county hospital to take a CT scan would cost more than 100 yuan!â
âThen how much? You teachers should tell us the amount.â
Finally, each parent present painfully took 200 yuan from their pocket, giving Su Bei a total of 2000 yuan, while Zhou Hongmei and all her gang members got a major demerit record.
Holding the stack of money, Su Bei felt particularly at ease. With this money, after she and Su Xiaobao went to B city, even if they couldnât find their father right away it would be enough to live in a hostel for some time. Curling the corner of her lips, Su Bei put the money into her pocket.
âSu Bei, you rob my familyâs money!â Zhou Hongmei suddenly rushed towards Su Bei.
A crisp slap sounded. It was not Zhou Hongmei who beat Su Bei, but Su Bei who beat Zhou Hongmei. Seeing this scene, people around them, including the parents who had just parted with their money, were dumbfounded.
This girl is so fierce, really their children who bully her? Wasnât it actually a fraud?
Su Bei dodged fast enough, and the teacher who came out of the office blocked fast enough. When Zhou Hongmei, who was beaten, reacted, she had no chance to fight back. With another loud sound, her other cheek got slapped again. This was done by Zhou Hongmeiâs dad, and was much heavier than Su Beiâs slap.
âDamn, youâre too shameful, go home now!â He wasnât a bit angry at Zhou Hongmeiâs bullying. What made him mad was that she not only caused him trouble, but also made him lost money.
âLet me pass.â Su Bei glanced lightly at Xu Lang, the boy with second grader syndrome who wanted to stop her, then bypassed him and ran towards Su Xiaobao.
âAre you all right?â Su Xiaobao nervously asked, carefully examining Su Bei.
âOf course Iâm all right, I even got a windfall. Look at this.â Su Bei took out the stack of money from her pocket and shook it in front of Su Xiaobao.
âAs long youâre all right.â Money, he can earn it anytime.
âLetâs go.â After spending the whole afternoon arguing in the principalâs office, Su Bei took Su Xiaobao home.
At this moment, someone blocked their way.
Itâs one of Zhou Hongmeiâs underling.
âSu Bei, sister Mei told me to send you a word, she wonât let you go, donât think you can ever mingle up again at this school!â It was Xu Shanshan. After Zhou Hongmei dragged home, this little underling become her deputy leader.
Upon hearing this, Su Bei smiled.
âReally?â Just right, she didnât have any plan to continue staying here.
Before leaving, Su Bei left a sentence to Xu Shanshan: âIs it you who made the post on internet?â
