The rustic-looking woman held her son tenderly, exclaiming, “Oh, my darling, are you alright? Let Mommy see if you’re hurt anywhere.”
Chen Fu, being the villain, was quick to complain, “They’re bullying me, accusing me of damaging their pencil case.”
Some of the surrounding parents were astonished. They had witnessed the whole ordeal; this kid was utterly malicious, lying without a second thought!
Soon, a child ran to the office to report, “Teacher Cai, Teacher Cai, the Su brothers are arguing with Chen Fu! ”
Teacher Cai swiftly followed the child outside, and concerned, Gu Zi hurried out of the office as well.
By the ping-pong table, a familiar-looking woman was chastising Su Bing and su Li.

It seemed she was Chen Fu’s parent.
Gu Zi’s voice turned cold. “Why are you scolding my son? Picking on children, are we?”
Seeing the redness in the younger one’s eyes made Gu Zi ache inside.
The woman snorted coldly and recognized Gu Zi. After all, Gu Zi’s appearance and temperament were too outstanding.
“Oh, you’re their mom? More like a stepmom, I’d say!”
Gu Zi chuckled icily, “I’m their stepmother, but still a mother. Don’t project your own dirty mindset onto others; it’s shameful.’
The people around them did not expect the Su Brothers to have such a young and beautiful stepmother, but since she admitted it so frankly, there was obviously no problem.
Teacher Cai, observing the escalating tension among the parents, stepped in as a mediator, standing in the middle. Addressing Chen Fu’s mother, he calmly said, “Chen Fu’s parent, please let the child explain the situation without resorting to foul language or attacking the other parent.”
Chen Fu’s mother, clutching her beloved son, urged, “Speak up, my darling. Mommy will handle it for you!”
Chen Fu adamantly stuck to his story, confident that his mother would back him up. “They broke their own pencil case and blamed me. I’m leaving, but his brother won’t let me go.”
He then hid behind his mother, sticking his tongue out and making faces at Gu Zi and the others.
Amidst sobs, Su Li countered, “That’s not true! He snatched my pencil case and deliberately smashed it on the ground. When Brother came to help me, the case was already broken.”
Some parents, witnessing the incident, couldn’t remain silent and vocally shared what they saw.
Gu Zi swiftly grasped the situation—Su Bing and Su Li were innocent, and Chen Fu was simply a troublemaker.
Seeing Su Li’s distressed expression deeply affected Gu Zi. She handed him a tissue, gently wiping away his tears.
“Su Li, Mom trusts you. Don’t worry; I’ll ensure justice is served.”
Su Li felt a wave of relief upon hearing Gu Zit s words. He was afraid his actions might have upset his mom, but thankfully, she was there to comfort him.

Upon hearing the accusations, Chen Fu’s mother couldn’t contain her anger. “What? How dare you all slander my son! Is it a case of bullying the outnumbered?” Her furious demeanor intimidated many witnesses into silence.
She stomped her feet as she spoke. Her fierce and aggressive appearance scared away many onlookers.
The onlookers, who had merely accompanied their children to the school event and didn’t wish to get involved in any trouble, chose to remain quiet.
Unfazed by her aggression, Gu Zi retorted, “With so many people witnessing your son bullying others, do you still deny the truth? I understand why your son behaves this way, after all, he has a mother like you.”
Chen Fu’s mother, hands on her hips, adopted a confrontational stance. “I Imow my son, and he’s absolutely incapable of such deeds. It’s those two there, thin as sticks, with the deepest cunning!”
Chen Fu chimed in, “That’s right, Mom! They’re really cunning!”
Unable to find a way to attack Gu Zi directly, Chen Fu’s mother resorted to targeting the two children.
Chen Fu himself harbored jealousy towards the Su siblings. In the past, they used to dress shabbily and barely had enough to eat. But suddenly, one day, they were all smartly dressed and had plenty of delicious treats and fun things.
He couldn’t stand seeing others having more than him. That’s why he decided to ruin their pencil case!
Teacher Cai couldn’t bear the toxicity of the situation any longer. How could this mother and son be so malicious?
He addressed the pair, “This isn’t such a big issue. Why is it so hard to admit the truth? Chen Fu, how can you speak ill of your classmates? Just apologize to them, and then your mother can compensate with a similar pencil case..”
