I stood up and pulled Chao Ran aside. "Shut up!"
Then I warned Ma Xiangming, "I warn you! Don't bully my Chao Ran!"
With that, I took Chao Ran and walked away.
As I brushed past Ma Xiangming, my shoulder collided hard with his.
Of course, it was intentional.
Once we stepped out of the office, I 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!"
Turning to Teacher Yue, I said, "Could you please change Chao Ran's class?"
I didn't want Yun Nuo to get involved.
After all, Yun Nuo still didn't know about my past.
I certainly didn't want her to find out that her mother had once been infatuated as well.
Cough, cough... Keep it low-key.
Teacher Yue nodded. "Sure."
At that moment, I suddenly remembered something very important.
I had just been so angry with Ma Xiangming that I completely forgot!
I pulled Chao Ran aside. "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. "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 sighed in 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, looking quite expensive.
Just as I was about to get into the car, that annoying voice interrupted me.
It was Ma Xiangming.
What was he doing here?
He just wouldn't go away!
Thinking about what had just happened in the office 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 complex expression, his mouth moving as if he wanted to say something.
I turned to leave. "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, please 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..."
"In order to protect you, I had no choice but to marry her."
My expression darkened.
Protect me?
What a nice way to put it!
He was just vain, preferring wealth over love!
Seeing that I remained silent, Ma Xiangming thought I believed his lies and continued, "Chu Jie, I've been thinking about you all these years."
"I promised to give you two hundred thousand at first, and now I've raised it to five hundred thousand."
He took 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 am the richest person in the province!
I give Chao Ran more than that for pocket money in half a year!
Seeing that I didn't accept it, Ma Xiangming sighed. "I know this amount is too little, but my current capabilities are limited."
"Chu Jie, if you encounter any difficulties in the future, feel free to come to me."
"If the money isn't enough, I'll find another way."
As he spoke, he forcibly shoved the bank card into my hand.
The card was light, yet it felt as heavy as a thousand pounds.
"Ma Xiangming, who do you think you can appease with this five hundred thousand?"
"I haven't even addressed the issue of your daughter bothering my Chao Ran!"
