I stood up and pulled Chao Ran aside. "Shut up!"
Then I warned Ma Xiangming, "I'm warning you! Don't bully my Chao Ran!"
With that, I took Chao Ran and walked away.
As I brushed past Ma Xiangming, I deliberately bumped my shoulder hard against him.
Of course, it was intentional.
Once we were out of the office, I finally let out a sigh of relief.
"Mom, am I okay?"
Chao Ran glanced at me cautiously.
I raised my hand and flicked his forehead. "You better watch out!"
Then I turned to Teacher Yue. "Could you please transfer Chao Ran to another class?"
I didn't want Yunnuo getting involved.
After all, Yunnuo still didn't know about my past.
I certainly didn't want her to find out that her mother had once been lovesick in her youth.
Ahem... Keep it low-key.
Teacher Yue nodded. "Sure."
At that moment, I suddenly remembered something very important.
I had just been so worked up by Ma Xiangming that I completely forgot!
I pulled Chao Ran aside and asked, “Chao Ran, do you really like Wang Hui?”
Chao Ran paused for a moment before nodding in acknowledgment. “Yeah… I like Wang Hui.”
He scratched his head and added, “But don’t worry, Mom. I won’t let it affect my studies.”
“Wang Hui has great grades. Let’s work hard together to get into Tsinghua!”
I let out a sigh of relief.
It’s wonderful that my son likes a girl who can help him improve.
Unlike me back then… I gave up my future for love.
A mix of emotions flooded my heart.
“Ms. Chu Jie, please wait.”
Hearing that familiar voice, I stopped in my tracks.
A luxury sedan was parked at the entrance of the community, clearly worth a lot.
Just as I was about to get in the car, I suddenly heard that annoying voice.
It was Ma Xiangming.
What was he doing here?
He just wouldn’t go away!
Thinking about what had happened in the office earlier made my anger flare up again.
He walked towards me.
I frowned and kept retreating, trying to create distance between us.
"Don't come any closer!"
Ma Xiangming looked at me with a complicated expression, his mouth moving as if he wanted to say something.
I turned and started to walk away. "Don't come looking for me again!"
Ma Xiangming quickly caught up and grabbed my wrist. "Chu Jie!"
"Don't touch me!" I shook off his hand.
The thought of him having held another woman's hand made me feel sick!
Ma Xiangming's face was pained. "Chu Jie, listen to me."
"I had no choice but to break up with you back then."
"Wang Ping has always liked you. When I found out, she threatened to find you..."
"To protect you, I had no choice but to marry her."
My expression turned extremely ugly.
Protect me?
What a nice way to put it!
He was clearly just vain and materialistic!
Seeing that I remained silent, Ma Xiangming thought I believed his nonsense and continued, "Chu Jie, I've been thinking about you all these years."
"I initially promised you two hundred thousand, but now I've raised it to five hundred thousand."
He pulled out a bank card and handed it to me. "Just take it."
I looked down and let out a cold laugh.
Five hundred thousand?
Did this scumbag think I was a beggar?
I should remind him that I am the richest person in the province!
I give Chao Ran more than that for pocket money in just half a year!
Seeing that I wasn't accepting it, Ma Xiangming sighed. "I know this amount is too little, but my current capabilities are limited."
"Chu Jie, if you ever have any difficulties, feel free to reach out to me."
"If the money isn't enough, I'll find another way."
As he spoke, he forcibly stuffed the bank card into my hand.
The card felt light, yet it weighed heavily like a thousand pounds.
"Ma Xiangming, who do you think you can bribe with this five hundred thousand?"
"I haven't even addressed the issue of your daughter bothering my Chao Ran yet!"
