The young female teacher was taken aback, nodding subconsciously. "I, I understand, parent. Don't worry, I will definitely keep an eye on her."
Although this woman wore flat shoes and casual clothes, her aura was captivating. Someone like her was either wealthy or of high status. If she let Xingxing go, it wouldn't just be her but the entire school that might suffer.
Thinking of this, the female teacher quickly grabbed Xingxing, who was trying to leave. "You can't go."
"An An."
Fang Miaomiao looked at Wen Yan'an standing by the window, her heart nearly leaping out of her chest. "Don't move around, Mommy, Mommy is here."
Wen Yan'an heard the voice and stiffly turned his head. When he saw Fang Miaomiao, his eyes lit up. "Mommy?"
"It's me, it's Mommy who came to find you."
Wen Yan'an didn't know when his mother had scooped him into her arms. All he knew was that his mother smelled so good and felt so warm.
"Mommy, how did you find me?"
"Because Mommy could tell at a glance whether An An was here or not." Fang Miaomiao felt the little guy's nervousness in her arms and patted his back to comfort him. "So, Mommy didn't see An An, so she came looking."
"Mommy."
"I'm here."
Fang Miaomiao hugged Wen Yan'an out of the restroom and looked at the woman being tightly held by the female teacher. Oh, she forgot, she still had a score to settle.
With that thought, she gently comforted Wen Yan'an. "An An, can you stand aside for a moment? Mommy has something to do."
"Mommy."
"Be good, Mommy will be quick, ten minutes and it'll be done." Fang Miaomiao said with a smile. "If An An gets bored, how about playing with Mommy's phone?"
"Okay."
"Be good, don't look up."
Wen Yan'an nodded obediently.
Fang Miaomiao handed her bag to Wen Yan'an. "Be good, play with your phone yourself, and keep an eye on Mommy's bag for me."
After saying that, the smile in Fang Miaomiao's eyes vanished.
She walked up to Xingxing and, amidst Xingxing's terrified gaze, grabbed her hair and pulled her towards her.
"Ah."
Her pained scream echoed in the empty corridor.
Fang Miaomiao found it noisy. She slapped Xingxing's cheek once, twice, and then threw her heavily to the ground.
"You, you're going too far. Do you believe I'll call the police to arrest you?"
"Go ahead." Fang Miaomiao was smiling, but there was no warmth in her eyes. "Call the police. Let's see who's more serious, me for hitting you, or you for abusing a minor."
"You, you're talking nonsense."
"Whether it's nonsense or not isn't up to you to say." Fang Miaomiao pulled her hair. "You said I hit you, right? You said you'd call the police, right? Then go ahead and call! If you go in, do you think the person behind you will bail you out?"
"I, I don't know what you're talking about."
"It doesn't matter." Fang Miaomiao said with a smile. "You want to call the police, and I do too. Our thoughts align. However, to show that I'm not bullying you, I'll give you the right to call the police. What do you think of this suggestion?"
"You, don't bully people with power."
"Mm-hmm, I am bullying you with power. Do you have any complaints?" Fang Miaomiao stood up. "I'll wait for you to call the police. And don't think about running, you can't escape."
With that, Fang Miaomiao walked smilingly towards Wen Yan'an. "An An."
"Mommy." Wen Yan'an hugged Fang Miaomiao's waist, his eyes shining as he looked at her. "You were so cool just now."
Fang Miaomiao raised an eyebrow. "See? I thought I was pretty cool too. An An, give Mommy the phone."
"Okay."
Fang Miaomiao opened Da Chen's WeChat.
Seeing the conversation there, Fang Miaomiao was stunned, then looked at Wen Yan'an with relief. "Good boy, I think I'm starting to like you more and more."
After hugging him, Fang Miaomiao looked happily at the woman sitting on the ground, looking lost. "I'll give you half an hour to call the police. You should cherish your time."
"Mommy."
"Be good, let's go home. Daddy is waiting for us at home."
"Mm-hmm."
As she carried Wen Yan'an downstairs, Da Chen and a kind-looking middle-aged woman were standing on the playground.
Fang Miaomiao recognized the middle-aged woman as the kindergarten principal.
"Madam Wen, I am truly sorry." The principal walked over to Fang Miaomiao, saying nervously and apologetically, "We were not careful when hiring. We have already reported her to the police and will definitely give you an explanation."
Fang Miaomiao looked at Da Chen. Seeing him nod, she smiled at the principal. "Alright, thank you, Principal."
"It's our duty. Little friend An An, I apologize. It was our lack of supervision. Can we apologize to you?" The principal said kindly. "An An doesn't have to accept it, but we still have to apologize."
Wen Yan'an turned his head to look at the principal. "This is not the principal's fault. You don't need to apologize. Mommy, I want to go home."
"Okay."
"Madam, leave this to me. You take the young master home first."
Fang Miaomiao nodded. "Do you know what to do?"
Da Chen nodded. "I will satisfy Madam."
Fang Miaomiao then nodded, gave the principal a nod, and left with Wen Yan'an.
Back home.
Wen Zhiyan had already been waiting in the living room for a long time.
It was Wen Yan'an's first time seeing his father wear loose pants at home. "Daddy?"
"Daddy's leg was scalded. Doctor Yuan said I need to rest it for a while."
"Is it serious?" Wen Yan'an's eyes reddened, wanting to go closer but hesitant.
"It's not serious." Wen Zhiyan waved at Wen Yan'an. "Come here, can you tell Daddy what happened today?"
Wen Yan'an nodded and briefly recounted the afternoon's events to them.
"You mean that teacher treated you like this for the first time?"
Wen Yan'an nodded. "Yes, she said something fell into the restroom and asked me to get it for her. But after I went in, she wouldn't let me out."
Fang Miaomiao and Wen Zhiyan exchanged a look.
"An An."
Wen Yan'an hugged Fang Miaomiao. "Mommy, it's okay. If it was when I was three, I would have been scared. But now I'm almost six, so I'm not scared. Besides, I knew Mommy would find me, so I wasn't scared."
"An An was by the window just now, were you trying to see when Mommy would arrive at school?"
"Mommy is so smart."
"I'm sorry, Mommy should have come a little earlier."
"No, An An knows Mommy will come, that's enough." Wen Yan'an cupped Fang Miaomiao's face, his voice soft. "As long as Mommy comes, I'll be happy."
"Silly boy." Fang Miaomiao hugged Wen Yan'an. "We're going to report your teacher. Do you agree?"
Wen Yan'an nodded. "She did something wrong."
When the teacher locked him in the restroom, he saw a malice in her eyes that he didn't like. He knew the teacher had done it on purpose. Daddy had said that people shouldn't do evil, but they also shouldn't let evil go unchecked.
