“Grandma, call the police quick and take her away! She hit me so hard that I fell on the ground!” The little boy shouted very rudely.
An Feng was stunned, she did not expect the child would shift the blame to her.
Wasn’t this a typical behavior of an imp? What an unruly child!
An Feng did not want to argue with the unreasonable grandmother and her grandson. She furrowed her eyebrows and walked to Xiaojie’s classroom without saying anything else.
But that imp ran forward and kicked An Feng hard on the leg.
The child was four to five years old, and looked much taller than most children. This kick made An Feng gasp from the pain.
Enduring the pain, An Feng’s good temper was ruined. Her face tensed up and looked at the naughty child who had kicked her and the old lady who was looking smug. An Feng said angrily, “Children with no manners is mostly because of how adults spoil them. No matter how well they do in school, they won’t be useful people in the future!”
When the old lady heard this, she was livid.
When did an outsider get the right to comment about her darling grandson?!
What’s more, it was a commoner woman.
“Apologize to my grandson!”
The old lady glared furiously at An Feng, ordering her arrogantly.
An Feng found it funny, how come all the old ladies she had met recently were all so unreasonable?
Did she think that just because she was rich and had a noble status she could look down on others?
“Old Madam, you will only harm the child, spoiling him like that.” Although she doted on Xiaojie, she would definitely educate him if he were to be like this naughty child.
It was fine to dote on a child but one could not spoil him unconditionally to this extent. It was important to let children distinguish between right and wrong.
When the old lady saw An Feng’s arrogance, she was full of scorn. “Do you know who I am? Do you not want to stay in the Capital anymore, offending my family?”
The old lady was Li Ying’s elder sister. The Li family used to be a typical nouveau riche. Later, the Li family used their connections to let Li Ying get married to Madam Qiao’s brother. Being with a noble, her status also went up.
Although her status had been raised, the nouveau riche nature deep inside her bones could not be changed.
Usually at home, the old lady doted on her grandson and never let him suffer any grievances. Sometimes when his temper came, he even hit the old lady.
Rather than educating him, the old lady felt that her grandson had a strong personality with a temper and would eventually become an important person anyway, so let him, run rampant.
An Feng had never seen such an unreasonable old lady before and she said angrily, “Are you even reasonable?”
The old lady howled and was extremely overbearing. “My words are reason themselves! Apologize! If you don’t, don’t even think of leaving here today!”
The naughty child also imitated his grandmother, lifting his chin petulantly like he was not in the wrong. “Damn old hag, my grandma asked you to apologize, didn’t you hear her? Apologize!”
An Feng did not want to say anything to such an unreasonable person and wanted to leave, but the old lady stopped her and she fell to the ground when she saw several parents coming over.
“Hey, everybody come and see! A commoner is bullying a noble. My bones were almost shattered by this vicious woman!”
Very soon, many ladies in glamorous clothes and extraordinary temperament gathered around.
The headmaster had also rushed over.
When she saw the headmaster, the old lady started to wipe her tears, looking like she was being bullied. “Headmaster, didn’t you say the security is tight in the school and that other than the parents, not even a fly can get in? But look, this woman pretended to be a parent and slipped in. You must interrogate her properly!”
Many parents also voiced out their concerns seeing that An Feng was unfamiliar and that it was her first time here.
An Feng only wanted to pick up Xiaojie in a low-key manner.
She did not expect that this would happen.
But she could not say that she was Xiaojie’s grandmother in front of so many people.
After all, in the eyes of the public, Mu Sihan was married and was Shangguan Wan’s husband.
The headmaster looked at An Feng, his gaze gentle and said, “Madam, may I know which child are you here to pick up? I’ve not seen you before, how did you get in?”
An Feng went up to the headmaster and said in a low voice, “Headmaster, can I talk to you privately?”
The headmaster was about to leave with An Feng when the old lady started to wail again unreasonably, “Headmaster, you can’t take her away! She must apologize to me and my grandson today, or else don’t even think about leaving!”
“And she didn’t even dare to say who she is here to pick up. She must be a human trafficker!”
“Who would still dare to put their darling in this school if word got out that a human trafficker snuck into the Royal Academy?”
The headmaster did not like the old lady, but because of her status, he could not say anything. He could only look at An Feng and asked, “Madam, you’re here to pick someone up, right?”
An Feng pursed her lips and looked hesitant.
The old lady saw this and was even more sure that she had snuck in. “Look, she can’t even say who she is picking up, isn’t she a human trafficker who kidnaps children? If I hadn’t kept my eye on my darling grandson, he might have been taken away by her!”
When several parents heard this, they held their children tighter in their arms.
“Headmaster, let’s call the police and let them investigate this!”
“Yes, although she doesn’t look like a bad person, it’s better to investigate properly.”
When An Feng saw this she had no choice but to say, “I’m here to pick Xiaojie.”
“Xiaojie is the Fourth Prince’s son. Who are you to come and pick him up? Haha, are you his grandmother? I heard that the Fourth Prince had a commoner girl as a mistress before and had a son with him, then she was dumped. You can’t be that girl’s mother, can you?” the old lady scoffed contemptuously.
The people around started to murmur and gossip.
Royalties from the Royal family were most particular about equality in social status and reputation. Being a mistress was the most criticized status one could have.
An Feng looked at the people pointing at her and her head started to ache. Her temples felt like it was being pricked by needles.
She held her head in her hands and backed away.
When the naughty child beside the old lady saw this, he pushed hard at An Feng’s back.
An Feng lost her balance and fell forward.
Seeing that she was about to fall to the ground, a figure from the crowd suddenly rushed forward, holding on An Feng steadily.
An Feng looked up and frowned when she met with a face full of worry. An image flashed past her mind. In the hospital she had knocked into this person and she had pushed An Feng away with a face full of disdain…
An Feng quickly stepped back to keep her distance with the person supporting her.
When Madam Qiao saw this, sadness flashed past her eyes.
“In-law, why are you here?” The old lady got up from the ground and took Madam Qiao’s hand, complaining tearfully, “Aren’t you one of the board trustees of this school? Tell the headmaster to chase this commoner who bullied me and my darling grandson away! You must blacklist her!”
