Rich Daughter Reincarnates as Her Eighteen-Year-Old Self to Rescue Her Younger Brothers!-Chapter 30
Chapter 30
When Chen heard that Mei Shu wanted to call the police, her heart almost jumped to her throat. Now, seeing Mei Shu’s eyes, she suddenly had an urge to confess everything, but she still held back.
To be able to become a leader, the principal still had some means. First, he and Ms. Huang brought Mei He in for a guided conversation. Of course, Mei Shu was also present. In the end, he locked onto Ms. Chen.
Then, he proceeded to use the fact that Ms. Chen’s daughter was employed as a handicraft teacher at the school, and through coercion and intimidation, he forced her to reveal what she had done in order to protect her daughter.
Ms. Chen cried and said, “I didn’t want to do it, but sometimes I get so frustrated. Mei He doesn’t listen to me. He got into a fight last month and a few days later scratched another child’s face. The parents went to the homeroom teacher, and then the homeroom teacher came to me. I felt very wronged. I lost my temper and hit him with a feather duster. I only did it twice.”
Mei Shu slammed her palm on the wooden table next to her in anger, her eyes filled with rage. “He was never a normal child. Do you know what kind of influence your actions will have on him? I have to report this to the police. You are abusing a child!”
After finishing her words, Mei Mu picked up the phone and called the police. The principal tried to stop her, but a duty teacher quickly stopped him and gestured with her eyes towards the solid wood desk that had split open in front of them.
The principal looked surprised and used his eyes to ask the teacher, Was this crack caused by the slap from Mei Shu just now?
After seeing the teacher on duty nod slightly, he could only give up struggling.
[Congratulations, Master, for winning the respect of others. Reputation +1]
Mei Shu was still angry when Little Eight’s mechanical voice rang out non-stop, making her wonder if this reputation value was related to her anger value.
Everyone in the school knew that nobody took care of Mei He. He had been here for five years, and his guardian only appeared when he was sent here. Even during the Chinese New Year vacation, only his family’s driver would come to pick him up. If this happened to someone else, their parents would surely report it to the police. However, when it happened to Mei He, the principal was relieved that it could be resolved quietly. But he didn’t expect that Mei He’s older sister would suddenly appear, which shattered his hopes.
The police arrived very quickly and brought Mei Shu to the hospital for a checkup. Ms. Huang and the principal naturally accompanied them throughout the whole process.
In the end, Ms. Chen was sentenced to one month of detention due to a relatively minor offense and the absence of serious consequences. Additionally, she showed a good attitude by confessing at the police station. She was also ordered to pay the victim 5,000 yuan as compensation for mental damages.
Mei He was a special kid. If he was rashly transferred to a new teacher and environment, it wouldn’t be good for his condition. Mei Shu felt that her reactions this time had let the school know that Mei He was not without anyone to take care of him. She decided to visit Mei He every week from now on. In addition, the principal repeatedly promised that such incidents would never happen again. So she gave up the idea of transferring Mei He to another school.
Mei Shu held Mei He’s hand as they walked out of the police station. Ms. Chen’s daughter was still in the school, but Mei Shu didn’t know what kind of person she was. Mei Shu was a little worried that the other party would retaliate. She didn’t want to hurt innocent people, but she didn’t dare to experiment with her brother’s safety, so she expressed her concerns.
The principal also voiced his opinion. “That girl is a very caring teacher. She has been working for two years and is very popular with the students. However, now that such a thing has occurred, I can understand your feelings. I will transfer her to another campus.”
Mei Shu was relatively satisfied with the handling result. Thinking that Chen mentioned that Mei He often hit others, she took the initiative to ask, “Has Mei been hitting people frequently lately? Is her condition getting worse?”
Ms. Huang was just about to find an opportunity to bring it up. When she heard Mei Shu’s question, she immediately blurted out the whole story.
“Mei He’s sister, I’ve been calling your mother for a month straight, but for some reason it’s always a busy tone. I was just thinking of going to the archives in a few days to look up your address and visit your home.”
Ms. Huang sighed helplessly and said, “Nothing is more important than a child, no matter how busy your parents are, isn’t it? Mei He’s condition began to worsen more than a month ago, and he injured two classmates. Fortunately, the injuries were not serious. Otherwise, their parents would have insisted on taking action. Even under these circumstances, your mother didn’t show up to take a look, and said that everyone must bear the consequences of their actions. She suggested that we deal with the situation normally, and if punishment is necessary, then we should punish him accordingly, even if it means beating him or putting him in solitary confinement.”
“But you know, we’re not a corporal punishment-type school! Families of autistic children also need to cooperate with the school’s treatment. I told your mother many times that she and your father should visit Mei He more often. Once a year is not good for Mei He’s treatment.”
Mei Shu looked surprised. “You haven’t contacted her for a month?”
Ms. Huang frowned and nodded awkwardly. “There’s one more thing. Mei He’s school fees are paid once every three months, and it’s been more than half a month since the payment was due.”
