700 An Important Person

Once the matter was resolved, Wei Zi Kai left the school building and headed to work. Meanwhile, Zhang Li Xue decided to stay for a while to talk to both Teacher Du and the principal.

She thanked them for their cooperation and apologized for the inconvenience. This matter was supposed to be among the children and the school was supposed to take action. However, Zhang Li Xue simply could not sit still and watch as Bai Xi Xi was being bullied.

Zhang Li Xue knew that the principal and the other teachers were going to be unhappy that a guardian was coming to the school while bringing a lawyer with her.

Because of this, Zhang Li Xue stayed for a while with the teachers and promised to sponsor some equipment that the school might need just to make the school happier.

Bai Xi Xi was no longer in trouble with her classmate and Zhang Li Xue did not want her sister-in-law to be in trouble with her teachers or the school next.

Zhang Li Xue was finally at ease when she saw the happy look on the principal’s and the teacher’s faces before she left.

Bai Xi Xi and Fu Chen walked her to the entrance to send her out.

Just as they reached the basketball court behind the school building, Zhang Li Xue turned to Bai Xi Xi again and smiled. “Alright. I’m guessing that your classmate would not bother you again the next time. But if he ever does something again, Xi Xi, you have to tell me, you know?”

Bai Xi Xi nodded obediently. “Sister-in-law, I know.”

.....

“That...” Fu Chen hesitated as he looked at the woman in front of him. He heard that Bai Xi Xi had addressed her as ‘Sister-in-Law’, but Fu Chen was still pondering how he should properly address Zhang Li Xue. After thinking about it for a while, Fu Chen finally made up his mind. “Mrs. Bai.”

“Yes?”

“Thank you for your help today,” Fu Chen spoke. He glanced at Bai Xi Xi and continued, “Otherwise, Class Monitor might be implicated because of me.”

“Oh? What do you mean by your words.”

Fu Chen cleared his throat. Meeting Zhang Li Xue’s gaze made him a little anxious. “Just that... Student Jian Chi and I had a few misunderstandings. I’m afraid that Class Monitor became his target because he wanted to get me.”

Zhang Li Xue was amused.

She already heard from Bai Xi Xi about Jian Chi yesterday. The boy was the sort of person who could not accept it when someone was better than him. When he could not defeat that person, he would choose to suppress that person using other methods instead.

Zhang Li Xue did not think that Fu Chen have to thank her. After all, she was doing everything for Bai Xi Xi. But seeing that he was thanking her sincerely, Zhang Li Xue decided to accept his thanks. “Then, you are welcome.”

Fu Chen heaved a breath of relief. The smile on his face became a little lighter as well.

“I heard from my sons that you and your siblings were accompanying him to play basketball,” Zhang Li Xue said. “My sons loved basketball. Fu Chen, when you are free, I hope that you can accompany them to play a little more. It’s always good for them to make friends.”

“Your sons?”

Zhang Li Xue nodded. “Mmm... Bai Xiang and Zhang Qi Lin.”

It was then that Fu Chen recalled that Bai Xi Xi had introduced the two boys as her nephews.

“Of course.” Fu Chen nodded. “Mrs. Bai, you don’t have to worry about this. As long as they wanted to, I can accompany them to play.”

He enjoyed playing basketball with the boys. Although they were young, their skills were quite good. In fact, each time that he played with them, he was the one who would learn a trick or two from them.

Fu Chen could see that the boys had practiced a lot to get to where they were now.

Seeing that Zhang Li Xue seemed to have a few things to talk to Bai Xi Xi, Fu Chen decided to leave first.

The moment his figure could no longer be seen, Zhang Li Xue turned to Bai Xi Xi again and smiled. “Xi Xi, I did not expect that Student Fu Chen is quite good-looking.”

Bai Xi Xi stared at her sister-in-law without saying a word.

“Of course, your brother is more handsome than Fu Chen.” Zhang Li Xue said.

Bai Xi Xi’s lips twitched when she saw the love-struck look on her sister-in-law’s face.

“Fu Chen seemed like a good person too,” Zhang Li Xue commented. “I am suddenly curious about his skills in basketball.”

Bai Xi Xi lowered her gaze. “Anyway, he’s not as good as you.”

Zhang Li Xue laughed. She stretched her hand and patted the teenage girl on her head. “Alright. Xi Xi, do you need me to pick you up after school?”

“Sister-in-law, I will be fine,” Bai Xi Xi spoke. “I already took too much of your time. I’m sure that you have a lot of things to do as well.”

Zhang Li Xue chuckled. “What are you talking about? Xi Xi, you’re an important person for me. You’re my family. No matter how long you need me, I will always be by your side.”

Hearing her sister-in-law’s words made Bai Xi Xi touched.

Somehow, this incident made her recall an old memory.

That time, she was bullied at school and no one seemed to want to take her side. The teacher seemed to believe her words, but at the same time, she was afraid of her bullies.

Bai Xi Xi remembered the feeling when she was forced to hold back her tears. She did not want her brother to be called to school when he was already busy with his work.

Later, it was her sister-in-law who showed up and fought with her bullies’ parents.

Bai Xi Xi could feel just how she would be protected under her sister-in-law’s arms.
