Chapter 137: Compensation
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Zhou Xiaoli knew that she was not a magnanimous person. She was just a relatively lucky ordinary fish who was also a petty person and would definitely take revenge against those who crossed her.
Therefore, when she heard Zhou Junjun’s words, she almost couldn’t help herself and cheered out loud for him.
However, Zhou Yu was so angry that he glared at him. As such, Zhou Xiaoli did not dare to show her emotions.
Zhou Yu raised his hand as if he wanted to strike him. However, considering where they were, he forced himself to calm down and he slapped his own thigh instead.
“My child, are you trying to anger your father to death!”
“I think you’ve studied for nothing. You don’t look like a student at all. If you’re like this, you don’t have to continue your studies in the future!”
No one needed to say much about how much Zhou Junjun loved to study. Now that he heard Zhou Yu say that he was not allowed to study anymore, his eyes immediately turned red.
Zhang Lan was stunned for a moment. She immediately turned around and glared at Zhou Yu. “What are you in a hurry for? We’re still in school. Stop talking. When we get home, you can talk reason with the child slowly.”
Actually, Zhou Yu did not feel good when he said that he would not let Zhou Junjun continue his studies. He regretted his harsh words.
Hence, he snorted and did not say anything else.
The four of them walked out of the school in silence.
Sure enough, Lai Jinniang and the others were waiting for them at the entrance of the private school.
Seeing Zhou Xiaoli and the others come out, Lai Jinniang immediately shouted sarcastically, “You’re dilly-dallying and taking your own sweet time to come
out. I think you just want to wait until we run out ot patience and go home. Then this matter will be over. Let me tell you, you can dream on!”
Zhou Xiaoli almost laughed out of anger.
“We can’t let this matter go just like that, that’s for sure. However, this is the entrance of the private school. Let’s not argue here.”
“Coincidentally, the mayor’s house is right beside us. Let’s go straight to the mayor’s house and let the mayor be our witness. How about that?”
Lai Jinniang and Zhou Fugui were stunned. They looked at each other.
Zhou Fugui straightened his neck and said, “No, it’s just a small matter. Is there a need to trouble the mayor? Besides, everyone knows that the mayor has a good relationship with your family. What if the mayor is on your side?”
Before he could finish speaking, he heard the mayor’s voice.
“Oh, whose side am I on?”
“Ma-mayor, you, why are you here.. ‘
Zhou Fugui suddenly turned around and saw the mayor walking over with a dark expression. He was so frightened that he stuttered.
“Hmph! I didn’t know that I was such an unjust person in your heart.” The mayor snorted.
Zhou Fugui smiled bitterly and waved his hand. “No, no, that’s not what I meant.”
Lai Jinniang hurried to help her son get out of the awkward situation.
“Yes, yes, mayor. That’s not what my Fugui meant.”
The mayor harrumphed and ignored them. Instead, he turned to Zhou Xiaoli and the others and invited them to his home with a smile.
Therefore, even though Lai Jinniang and Zhou Fugui had unpleasant expressions on their faces, they went to the mayor’s house.
When they arrived at the mayor’s house, the mayor stroked his beard and said, “How about this? Didn’t Zhou Fugui say that I was unfair? If I help you judge today, you won’t be convinced of my sole judgment. It just so happened that Landlord Wan is in my house today. How about the two of us help you judge?”
Zhou Xiaoli’s family naturally had no objections to it.
Lai Jinniang and Zhou Fugui hesitated before agreeing.
Hence, the two families explained the cause and effect of the matter to the two of them.
Landlord Wan nodded and looked at Lai Jinniang and the others. “In that case, we don’t have to judge at all. Your grandsons destroyed Zhou Junjun’s things in the first place, and Miss Zhou wants you to compensate for it. This is reasonable.” 𝑏𝑒𝘥𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝘭.𝑛𝘦𝑡
Then, he looked at the Zhou family and said, “Your child, Zhou Junjun, was the first to strike and Madam Lai’s grandsons were injured. They want compensation for the medical fees. This is reasonable as well.”
“In that case, the matter would be solved when both of you compensate each other..”
