The Billionaire's Mischievous Sweetheart-Chapter 495 - 492: The Child Has Suffered So Much Injustice
I deeply regret telling him about the child I had with Qi Longbing. If I hadn’t mentioned it, he probably wouldn’t have known about our child Candy at all.
"I’m sorry, Teacher, for the impact I’ve brought upon the school. I deeply apologize. Additionally, it saddens me greatly that my child has suffered such humiliation. I hope you can pay more attention to her in class, and also ensure that the other students won’t mock or hurt her." Hua Xiaomo spoke to Teacher Wang, her voice filled with profound regret. "Because this was never something to be mocked. As for the matter between me and that woman, I will resolve it as soon as possible. In fact, it’s not as that woman claimed. Please believe me, won’t you?" Her amber eyes glimmered darkly.
Actually, she found the teachers to be quite good, especially this homeroom teacher, Teacher Wang. He had always paid close attention to her child and, how should she put it, even treated Candy as if she were his own daughter. She felt fortunate to have such a teacher for her child. Consequently, Candy had always been an excellent student in Teacher Wang’s class, excelling in all subjects, including language arts, mathematics, moral education, and music. Candy was top of her class and even the class president, which truly demonstrated the significant positive influence Teacher Wang had on the children. So, she generally had a good personal relationship with Teacher Wang, believing that only a good teacher could nurture a good child.
Parents are indeed a child’s first teachers. Their actions deeply affect their child, who will emulate their ways of speaking and behaving. Therefore, adults must be the child’s first teacher, their first role model. Only then can one raise a child well. Hua Xiaomo understood this profoundly. She lovingly stroked Candy’s head and said, "Don’t be afraid, Candy. Mommy is here. Mommy will be very good to you. Shall I drive that bad auntie away? We won’t let her into our school anymore, and we won’t let her appear in our lives again, okay?"
Candy nodded at Hua Xiaomo, her big eyes sparkling, tears still welling in them, showing just how upset she had been. Yet, she bravely nodded firmly at Hua Xiaomo.
"I know that bad auntie! She’s like a monster who suddenly came from another planet! I will defeat her! I won’t let her hurt Mommy, or the teacher, or my classmates! I know I have to become a Balabala Little Magic Fairy to beat her! I’ll use my magic to turn her into stone, turn her into a monster, and then banish her from our Earth forever!" Candy declared in a stream of innocent and adorable words. Her eyes were wide, and she seemed determined to protect her mommy, her teacher, her classmates, and their beautiful school and home, sounding just like a little angel of justice.
These words immediately brought a knowing smile to the faces of both Hua Xiaomo and Teacher Wang.
Teacher Wang gently touched Candy’s little head and said to Hua Xiaomo warmly, "Look how sensible your child is. She knows to protect those around her from such a young age. That’s why she is an excellent role model for our school. I hope she can live a life filled with happiness, peace, and joy. Therefore, I hope you adults won’t allow your personal lives to interfere too much with her growth. I’ve noticed that Candy is actually a very happy girl; she shouldn’t be troubled by the affairs of adults like you. If it’s truly unavoidable, please don’t vent these issues in front of the children, okay? Children are the flowers of our nation, the little angels sent to you from Heaven. You wouldn’t want to harm them, would you?" Teacher Wang spoke kindly, looking earnestly at Hua Xiaomo.
He also looked at Candy, slowly caressing her little head, genuinely concerned for her at that moment. He had noticed that the woman who had come earlier bore ill will, and he feared this situation might not be resolved so easily. Moreover, she had threatened to continue disrupting Candy’s studies. Such acts could greatly harm Candy’s mental and physical well-being. This matter needed to be resolved, one way or another.
"You’re absolutely right, Teacher Wang. I truly apologize from the bottom of my heart. I will resolve this issue, and I won’t let anything negatively impact my child, or you, or the school," Hua Xiaomo said, nodding earnestly at Teacher Wang. "I, Hua Xiaomo, make this promise to everyone: there definitely won’t be a next time." She nodded firmly at Teacher Wang again.
She felt that Teacher Wang’s words were spot on and was touched by his stance from the child’s perspective. If it had been any other parent, perhaps he wouldn’t have said so much. It was all because Teacher Wang valued and cared for Candy so deeply that he was willing to go the extra mile, ensuring she was well looked after and protected from harm.
"Alright then, I trust you. As her parent, you are doing a great job. From all this, I can see that you truly care. Now, take your child home. The little treasure must be hungry. Make sure to prepare something for her to eat so she doesn’t go hungry. Oh, and don’t forget today’s homework. Remember to do it and bring it in tomorrow, okay, Candy?" Teacher Wang said, smiling at Candy and Hua Xiaomo. He then waved goodbye and walked into the school grounds.
Hua Xiaomo took Candy to their car. As Candy sat in the passenger seat, she fell silent, her expression clouding over as if troubled by something. This made Hua Xiaomo somewhat anxious.
Hua Xiaomo looked at her child, worried that Candy might have been affected by the incident. If so, she truly felt sorry for her daughter. These were her own personal matters and shouldn’t have influenced Candy’s upbringing. This could cause deep emotional wounds to the child. She felt utterly ashamed. This was her own child, after all. Why didn’t she have the right to protect her?
