I have few friends, but many childhood sweethearts.

Chapter 37. Parent-Teacher Meetings and Conflicts (Part 2)
Xu's father, a tall man over 1.8 meters, had his short-sleeved shirt pulled up to his shoulders, revealing his muscular physique, and stood behind Xu Qingfan like Galio making his heroic entrance.

The parent who was pushed down got up and was about to get angry, but when he saw Xu Aiguo's tall and strong figure, his arrogance immediately died down. "Like father, like son. The whole family is no good!"

Unable to resort to physical confrontation, the parent switched to a more subtle approach.

“Exactly! It’s supposed to be a prestigious elementary school, but they admit just anyone. What bad luck!” The mother of the boy whose son’s face was swollen from being beaten also chimed in.

Xu Aiguo glanced at the two who were arguing incessantly. "An adult hits a child, and you're acting all high and mighty? Son, tell me, what happened?"

"If you've got the guts, give me your name. I can find all your information in five minutes. Then I'll be all high and mighty, so what!" The parent felt insulted by the contempt in Xu Aiguo's eyes and took out his phone to make a call.

"What? Why are you in such a hurry to speak? Are you my son? I don't have an unfilial son like you!"

"You! You! You! You just wait!"

Xu Qingfan was surprised to find that his father was so sarcastic. He stood aside and listened, and it was truly a case of the old lady making the man laugh when she got into bed.

"What are you all doing gathered here?" Lin Wanning's father had also come over at some point. The two tall men, each over 1.8 meters, stood together, creating a huge pressure field on the other side.

"Why is Yi Yi crying? Who bullied our Yi Yi?" Wen Wanqing squatted down and wiped away the tears from the corners of Zhang Yi's eyes.

Xu Qingfan turned on the loudspeaker: "Quiet down, everyone. I'll recount the whole story. These two!" He stepped forward and pointed to two children hiding in their parents' arms, secretly wiping away tears. "I saw them trying to snatch Zhang Yiyi's hearing aid. After they got it, they didn't stop. One of them pushed Yiyi to the ground, just like my dad pushed this older boy." Xu Qingfan then pointed to the parent.

"Where did this brother come from?" The onlookers asked instinctively, then immediately remembered what Xu's father had just said and burst into laughter.

"Hahahaha, what the hell, brother, this kid!"

"What brother? What are you laughing at?"

Didn't he just say that?

"Hahahaha!"

The parent who was being mocked turned green with rage, wishing he could slap Xu Qingfan to death, but he didn't dare.

"Xiao Ruanwen is our class monitor. When she saw someone bullying Yi Yi, this little girl stood up and beat up those two bad kids. Do you all think Xiao Ruanwen did the right thing?"

"No!" Many people chimed in.

"Ha! Two boys couldn't beat a little girl, and they still have the nerve to cry like that? Shameless!"

"shameless!"

The atmosphere suddenly became cheerful, leaving only the two pairs of parents and the other pair's homeroom teacher standing there as punishment.

"Next up is this homeroom teacher, who indiscriminately accused our class monitor of hitting their students. What do you all think? Should he have been hit?" Xu Qingfan pointed at the male teacher who had secretly taken a few steps back.

"It's time to hit!"

"Well done!" The prefect, having somehow received the notification, rushed over in a panic. "Little student, could you lend me your megaphone for a moment?"

Seeing the prefect panting heavily, Xu Qingfan quickly handed him the megaphone, saying, "Here you go, teacher."

"Everyone, please be quiet. The parent-teacher meeting is about to begin. Parents who are not involved in this matter, please go to the meeting room first. Just walk straight ahead and turn right. The parent-teacher meeting is about to start, so please do not crowd around here!"

The parents who had been watching the commotion quickly dispersed, leaving only a few students and parents involved in the incident.

"It's all my fault, class monitor," Li Tiefeng seized the opportunity to show off, telling Xu Qingfan the two versions of what he had seen and what he had heard.

Seeing that what the other party said was fairly fair, Xu Qingfan refrained from making sarcastic remarks.

"I remember you, Xu Qingfan. The teacher gave you an award certificate this morning. I didn't expect to see you again so soon." The grade leader patted him on the shoulder with a smile. "Come to the office first, there are too many mosquitoes outside."

On the way there, Xu Qingfan secretly slipped the hearing aid into Xia Xiaoxiao's hand, believing that with her intelligence and wit, she would know how to cover up the lie.

Xia Xiaoxiao glanced at it, then tacitly put the item into her pocket without saying a word.

"The most urgent thing now is to find the hearing aid. Where did you two hide it?" The class monitor was furious. Of all things to play with, playing with hearing aids is a serious matter, involving more than 200,000 yuan. If things go wrong, the school will lose face.

"Waaaaah, I don't know."

"Waaaaah, I didn't take her hearing aid!"

The two children then became frightened and stood there trembling.

"What, are you saying I wronged you? There are still your fingerprints on Yiyi's ear. Why don't you call the police and let them come and find us?" Xu Qingfan fanned the flames from the side, ignoring Guan Bianyue's several winks.

"Forget about calling the police. As long as they're still at school, they'll definitely be found. I've already arranged for teachers and security guards to look for them." The class monitor clutched his chest, feeling a tightness in his chest.

Everyone was stunned by the figure of over 200,000, and no one expected that Xu Qingfan would hide the hearing aid.

Before anyone could be seen, the sound of footsteps echoed from outside the door. The next second, a mature woman in a black business suit stood in the doorway.

Zhang Chunxue rushed in barefoot, carrying a pair of high heels, and hugged Zhang Yiyi tightly. "Yiyi, I'm sorry, Mom is late."

"Yi-yi, it's alright!" Zhang Yi-yi hurriedly wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, flashing a bright smile at her mother.

However, the more this happened, the more heartbroken Zhang Chunxue felt. "It's all Mom's fault. Mom will never be late again!"

After the class monitor briefly recounted what had happened, Zhang Chunxue looked at Xu Qingfan, Xia Xiaoxiao, Lin Wanning, and Xiao Ruanwen with gratitude in her eyes. "Auntie, thank you so much. Yiyi has never liked to trouble others since she was little, and she keeps her grievances to herself. I've always been afraid that she would be bullied by her classmates when she goes to elementary school. Really, thank you!" Zhang Chunxue bowed deeply to the four children with red eyes.

"Don't worry, Auntie, with us here, no one can bully Yiyi!"

“You’re a good boy. Yi Yi told me about you standing up for her and tutoring her in math. I’m so grateful to you. I wish Yi Yi had a brother like you back then.” Zhang Chunxue pulled Xu Qingfan into her arms and hugged him tightly with gratitude.

Oh no, it's that suffocating feeling of happiness again!
