Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Lu Lehua’s face turned black as soon as she saw so many parents in the office.

How big of a trouble did Nan Yan cause this time!

An Mulin’s disgust towards Nan Yan reached an unprecedented level.

Seeing Nan Yan sitting calmly across from the headmaster, his anger flared up.

Lu Lehua took a deep breath, suppressing the urge to turn around and leave. She tried her best to maintain her composure, walked up to the homeroom teacher of Class 4, and with her head held low, she said with a hint of humiliation, “Homeroom teacher, I will make sure Nan Yan gives you an explanation for this. I will make her apologize to her classmates. Please give her another chance and don’t let her be expelled!”

Homeroom teacher: “???”

Who said anything about expelling Nan Yan?

The homeroom teacher realized that Lu Lehua might have misunderstood something and was about to explain, but Lu Lehua had already taken a big step forward and reached out to grab Nan Yan.

“What are you still sitting there for? Get up and apologize to your classmates!” Lu Lehua said with anger.

Nan Yan held onto her hand, her eyes filled with coldness. “Mrs. An, if you’re bored, find something else to do. Don’t come and bother me every day, alright?”

Lu Lehua trembled with anger. “You blame me for meddling too much? If you behaved and listened, do you think I would rush over here to clean up after you?”

Nan Yan lazily raised an eyebrow and sneered, “Do I need you to manage me?”

“Nan Yan, is this how you talk to your mother?” An Mulin intervened, grabbing Nan Yan’s hand forcefully, almost as if he wanted to break it.

Nan Yan had no good impression of this ‘second brother’ at all.

Unlike An Xiran, this second brother treated An Muyao like his treasure and wanted to give her the best of everything, he only had disgust and disdain for the original host, his own sister.

Compared to the outstanding and well-behaved An Muyao, the original host was insecure, weak, and a troublemaker, constantly making mistakes and embarrassing herself.

Naturally, he hated Nan Yan even more and liked An Muyao even more.

Feeling the pain in her wrist, Nan Yan released Lu Lehua’s hand and then stood up. Her free hand swiftly and forcefully struck An Mulin’s shoulder.

Feeling the pain in his shoulder, An Mulin felt his arm go numb and Nan Yan easily broke free.

“You dare to hit me?” An Mulin looked surprised.

Nan Yan’s lips curled coldly, her eyes full of arrogance. “I did hit you.”

“Are you crazy? I’m your second brother!” An Mulin said in anger.

How dare she lay a hand on him!

“You’re only An Muyao’s second brother. You don’t deserve to be my second brother,” Nan Yan retorted.

She could barely acknowledge An Xiran from the An family.

As for the others, she would not acknowledge a single one of them.

An Mulin laughed out of anger and said, “You think I would willingly let you be my sister? Having a sister like you is my disgrace.”

“Likewise. From now on, let’s sever all ties,” Nan Yan said.

An Mulin clenched his fist. He couldn’t bring himself to strike her despite her nonchalant expression. In the end, he snorted coldly and turned his head away.

Lu Lehua was truly infuriated by Nan Yan’s rebelliousness. She wanted to slap her so badly, but in front of so many people, she could only endure, clenching her teeth tightly to prevent herself from doing anything undignified.

The people around them were stunned by the confrontational attitude between the three of them.

What kind of new news has come out of the An family again?

The headmaster finally came to his senses and quickly said, “Parents, have you misunderstood something?”

“Nan Yan did nothing wrong. It was these boys who did something wrong this time.”

Lu Lehua asked confusedly, “Wasn’t it said that Nan Yan got into a fight with her classmates?”

The headmaster explained, “That was because these boys provoked her first. Nan Yan was fighting back in self-defense.”

After hearing the headmaster’s explanation, Lu Lehua couldn’t help but look at Nan Yan.

The girl’s expression remained indifferent, as if the previous misunderstanding and accusation had no effect on her.

This display made Lu Lehua feel uncomfortable, as if she had been punched.

And those parents who looked at her expression seemed to be blaming her and mocking her.

Lu Lehua’s face burned with anger as she sternly questioned Nan Yan, “Why didn’t you explain yourself clearly?”

Nan Yan’s eyebrows were calm and indifferent. “There’s no need.”

Lu Lehua felt embarrassed and utterly humiliated.

Couldn’t this rebellious daughter give her some face?

If it were Yaoyao, she would definitely take care of her image and never let her face such humiliation.

The homeroom teacher sighed and said, “Mrs. An, as soon as you came in, I wanted to explain, but you didn’t give me a chance…”

She forced a smile, her expression stiff, and said awkwardly, “I’m sorry, I was too impatient, afraid that Nan Yan would cause trouble for you all.”

“If there’s nothing else, we won’t disturb you any longer.”

Lu Lehua grabbed An Mulin’s hand and pulled him hurriedly towards the exit.

She couldn’t bear to stay in this place for even a second.

“Nan Yan, I think I understand why you insisted on changing your registered name…”

The headmaster looked at Nan Yan with a hint of sympathy in his eyes.

As a parent, treating two children so differently would naturally cause great harm.

Yesterday, when he saw Lu Lehua’s attitude towards Nan Yan and An Muyao, he had already suspected that Nan Yan wasn’t valued in the An family.

And today, witnessing Lu Lehua’s behavior once again, he realized that it wasn’t just about value, it was about distrust and indifference.

Which parent, upon hearing that their child had been involved in a fight at school, wouldn’t first inquire if their child was hurt?

Lu Lehua didn’t ask anything, she simply demanded that Nan Yan apologize to others. It was truly outrageous!

The headmaster placed a hand on Nan Yan’s shoulder and said with sincerity, “Nan Yan, be strong.”

Nan Yan was speechless.

What was the headmaster thinking again?

After witnessing this drama for free, the parents who had been called hurriedly urged their own children to apologize to Nan Yan.

After Nan Yan stated that she wouldn’t pursue the matter any further, they all left with their children.

Outside, almost all of them instructed their own children to avoid Nan Yan in the future, to have as little contact with her as possible, and to not get involved with her in any way.

To these parents, this girl who wasn’t recognized by the An family, with such wild and arrogant personality, represented a bad girl.

Not only was she bad, but her skills were also formidable. Provoking her would only bring trouble upon themselves.

Therefore, it’s better to keep their distance from her and ignore her.

After all, she was just a mediocre student in the class, with a weak presence. It’s best to pretend she doesn’t exist.

The reprimanded boys nodded one after another, expressing that they wouldn’t have any more conflict with Nan Yan again.

And thus, the incident came to an end.

After everyone left, Nan Yan stayed behind in the office with the headmaster.

The homeroom teacher went to teach other classes, leaving only the two of them in the office.

“Nan Yan, your personality…” the headmaster was about to give a lecture, but when he caught Nan Yan’s faint smile, his words took a different turn. “It’s quite good.”

“At the very least, you won’t be bullied.”

Nan Yan responded with a smile. “Hmm, I feel the same way.”

The headmaster sighed silently and then stared straight at her. “Well, let’s talk about the International Computer Science Competition, shall we?”

“Sure…”
