My CEO Husband Has Some Issues

Chapter 1918: Chapter 1919: Have Security Escort You Out

She glared at Rong Yan with contempt, "Isn’t she just a washed-up celebrity! There are plenty of celebs who are parents at Shenghui; I don’t even remember seeing her face on TV. She probably isn’t popular. Why would top-tier stars show her any respect, afraid of a nobody actress like her?"

Principal Lan’s expression changed abruptly, and he quickly checked the reaction of the man next to him. Seeing the man’s sullen face, his heart trembled, weighing the situation, he stepped forward, "Old Madame Han, you can eat indiscriminately, but you can’t speak indiscriminately. This is a school, not a place for your quarrels. If you continue causing a scene, I’ll have no choice but to have security come and send you out!"

The old madam was stunned and stuttered, "Principal Lan, did you get it wrong? Our family donated a library to the school..."

The principal perhaps hadn’t recognized her, how could he try to drive her out?

Principal Lan’s eyebrows didn’t budge, and he replied officially, "The donation from student parents for the school’s library is a voluntary act; the school thanks these donating families on behalf of its 30,000 students."

He changed his tone, "But the school has absolutely not privately promised these student parents that their children will receive special treatment in the future. If you feel that the school’s use of your donation amounts to a private transaction with you, well, you can talk to the finance department, and I’ll have them return the money to you."

Shenghui itself is a aristocratic school, neither lacking money nor connections, but who would refuse free money.

He wouldn’t dare to take the hit for the sake of a mere million dollars.

As the principal of Shenghui, he is also among the elite of Capital City; while he doesn’t have as much money as the typical tycoons, his social standing isn’t low, having taught many students and possessing quite a lot of information. He had caught wind of what happened at the Shen Family’s old master’s banquet.

This Mrs. Li herself is a treasure, not to mention her formidable husband behind her!

He wasn’t stupid enough to not know which side he should take!

"Principal, that’s not what I meant..." The old madam is inherently timid and afraid of conflict with strong personalities, and once met with resistance, she cowered.

Her eyes couldn’t help but sneak a glance at her daughter.

"Lily..."

With her own mother seeking help from her, Mrs. Han, despite wanting to chastise her as the inept teammate, had no choice but to bite the bullet and step forward, apologizing with a wry smile to the principal, "Principal Lan, my mother is old and speaks clumsily. Please don’t take it to heart."

She then awkwardly apologized to Rong Yan, "Miss Rong, I know what happened with the children. Certainly, it must be our child who was ignorant and caused trouble first. I’m apologizing on behalf of him to you."

She didn’t forget to command her son, "Dabao, come over here and apologize to your classmate!"

She understood the stakes involved; the child did not grasp these complexities and refused flatly, shouting, "Why should I apologize to a pretty boy! I won’t apologize! You must get the principal to expel him; I don’t want to see him at school, or else I’ll stop coming!"

The old madam hugged her grandson tenderly, discontentedly criticizing her, "What are you doing, Dabao got his tooth knocked out, and you’re still asking him to apologize?! I absolutely don’t understand you. Isn’t Dabao your son?"

Mrs. Han was anxious inside but couldn’t outright explain to her mother about Rong Yan and their identities, so she impatiently said to her, "Mom, I’m teaching the child, don’t interfere!"

The old madam wouldn’t let go, insisting on protecting him, "Dabao is my grandson too; how can I not care! I will care! Their child hit ours, yet we’re asked to apologize. Nowhere is this considered appropriate!"
