Chapter 185: Lotus Sports Car

After one or two times, Qu Qianqian clearly noticed that Xie Qin was deliberately ignoring them rather than not hearing what they said.

She immediately became angry and raised her voice once again:

"Teacher, quickly apologize to Ms. Li Li! Apologize!! Apologize——!!!"

Each call for apology was louder than the last!

It was hard for anyone not to hear.

Xie Qin’s face suddenly darkened, feeling that Qu Qianqian was simply being unreasonable!

Before she had a chance to react, she heard the principal’s stern warning from outside: "Teacher Xie! The kids are talking to you!"

Xie Qin’s expression suddenly stiffened, surprised that the principal hadn’t left yet. After a long while, she gritted her teeth and forced herself to smile at Qu Qianqian:

"Sorry, Qianqian, I didn’t hear it earlier—"

Zhang Yiming showed no tact, covering his ears, directly exposing her, and shouted:

"Teacher, you’re lying! Her shouting almost deafened me. How could you not hear? You just don’t want to pay attention to us, nor do you want to apologize to Li Li. You... you’re just a bad teacher!"

Xie Qin now really wished she could pounce and rip their mouths apart! She had never seen such disobedient kids!

But with the principal still there, she could only suppress her anger, smile, and gently say:

"No, I really didn’t hear it."

To prevent them from clinging to the "did you hear or not" topic, Xie Qin quickly changed the subject: "But now that you mentioned it, I do remember that I forgot to apologize to Lu Li."

Protective Qu Qianqian only cared about whether the teacher would apologize to her idol.

She immediately said crisply: "Then hurry up and apologize to Ms. Li Li, she was misunderstood terribly!"

Zhang Yiming chimed in: "Exactly! Li Li was really wronged!"

The little girl tilted her head, thought for a moment, and straightforwardly agreed, her little voice firm: "Yes! Li Li was really wronged! Teacher, hurry up and apologize!"

Xie Qin tightly clenched her hands, her nails deeply embedded in her skin.

After a long while, as if forcing out words from her throat, she barely squeezed out a few words:

"Lu Li, I’m sorry, it’s the teacher... the teacher... misunderstood you, now the teacher apologizes..."

Though she said she was apologizing, Xie Qin truly felt hatred in her heart, thinking she had never been so humiliated in her life, she couldn’t stay another moment!

Fortunately, once she finished speaking, the bell signaling the end of class rang.

Xie Qin let out a long sigh of relief and without glancing at Lu Li, immediately turned around and walked to the podium.

Seeing the principal still at the door, she forced herself to regain her usual gentle demeanor, her face showing no trace of ferocity, smiled and clapped her hands:

"Alright, it’s time for recess! Break time is half an hour, remember not to run around, okay?"

Many kids in the audience responded: "Okay, teacher."

"Good," seeing the principal finally leave, Xie Qin quickly looked towards the back where Song Wanwan was still being punished: "Wanwan, come out with me for a moment."

Song Wanwan, already resentful that Xie Qin didn’t stand by her side and punished her, didn’t want to respond when she heard this.

But seeing Xie Qin’s serious expression and fearing there might indeed be something important, she reluctantly followed her out, sulking.

...

Hai City Kindergarten playground.

Under a particular tree, a limited edition silver Lotus sports car was parked.

Qin Xiyin pursed his rosy lips, his delicate brows showing slight reluctance.

The driver came over and opened the car door for him.

Sitting in the back was a handsome man exuding cold aloofness and stability.

When the car door opened, the man was slightly lowering his eyes, gazing indifferently at the company report in his hand.

The side profile was stern and detached, his entire being reflected a distant and strong aura, inspiring awe and making others wary to approach.
