“What? Trying to bully us kids because you’re bigger? Aren’t you ashamed, meddling in children’s fights?”
If it were anyone else, they might’ve been rattled by the boy’s sudden taunt.
But Xu Fei didn’t care. To him, these brats were no different from street thugs, so he grabbed the leader by the neck, lifting him into the air.
“Stop acting tough, this isn’t the place for you to run wild!”
Faced with absolute strength, the boy backed down but still had something to say.
“I… I didn’t bully them! Just because they’re poor and can’t afford school-district housing while I can, does that mean I deserve to be beaten?”
Xu Fei chuckled, pointing at the apartments beyond the courtyard wall, “You mock them for not having school-district housing? Well, listen up, those buildings are now exclusively for students in need, everyone can apply, except you lot!”
After speaking, Xu Fei shared the good news with the principal. Lan Jitong was thrilled, immediately announcing a half-day school closure to move all struggling families into the apartments.
To put the brats in their place, Xu Fei deliberately took them to visit some of the families who had moved in.
When they saw the cramped, rundown school-district housing they’d paid a fortune for, compared to the amazing apartments others got for a hundred yuan, the rich exchange students’ faces lost all trace of pride, replaced by growing shame.
The difference between the two types of housing was stark, only a fool would choose the school-district ones.
Soon, the exchange programme ended, and after the group left, Royal School finally returned to peace.
Xu Fei specifically instructed Lan Jitong to never organise such pointless activities again.
“Dad, did you see today? Kangkang was so cool, so awesome, he saved me all by himself!”
Lele, sitting in the car, excitedly gestured as she spoke to Xu Fei.
Xu Fei, who had been there, knew the situation and said with a smile, “Dad saw it. Kangkang helped you so many times, you must feel a bit shy about it. How about we invite him to our place for dinner this afternoon?”
Lele’s face lit up as if she’d received the best surprise ever, absolutely delighted!
“Yay! Dad, you’re the best! I’ll go tell Kangkang now!”
After Lele got out of the car, Xu Fei made time to visit the principal’s office again.
“Mr. Xu, I swear, we’ll never hold such events again!” Lan Jitong said, assuming Xu Fei was there to scold him.
Xu Fei waved his hand, “Pull up the file for a student named Kangkang.”
As Lan Jitong worked on the computer, he said, “Here’s the thing, Mr. Xu, Kangkang is from an orphanage in the capital, so his file is very simple, just a sentence really!”
After reviewing Kangkang’s file, Xu Fei nodded thoughtfully.
