You Owe Me, My Love novel Chapter 270

Chapter 270 An Unpleasant Surprise

After a short while, the three students returned to the office. They had awful looks on their faces. Perhaps they had talked about the way they acted out the scene in different ways.

Bai Rong leaned against the principal’s table and started recording their conversation once again. “Why don’t you tell me the reasons you’re trying to accuse him?”

Again, the chubby boy broke the silence ahead of his friends, stating in a righteous manner, “We don’t like him!”

Looking at the other two students, Bai Rong asked, “Have you guys accused him because of the same thing?”

“He’s getting full of himself because he’s the governor’s son! No matter what he does, he doesn’t have to bear the consequences of his actions! We can’t allow him to stay in the school! Otherwise, he’s going to mess with other students!” The scrawny boy added as though he did nothing wrong.

“Who do you guys think you are to judge him? All of you thought Lu Biao would pick on other students, but hadn’t you guys picked on him and defamed him in a similar way? I’m sure all of you don’t wish to be put in such a tight spot, do you?” Bai Rong responded with a scornful smirk and remarked sarcastically.

She paused for a few seconds before continuing with her orated speech. “Are you guys aware of the consequences of your actions? He may be terminated by the school and despised by his peers. The governor’s image will be adversely impacted as well. Since many people’s benefits are at stake because of your actions, I have lodged a police report. It’s better for us to resolve this issue through legal means.”

The principal couldn’t keep his cool anymore because the school’s image would be adversely impacted. “Can we not lodge a police report? It’s nothing but a trivial incident, isn’t it?”

Bai Rong looked at the principal in the eyes and asked, “Do you really think it’s a trivial matter when Lu Biao almost got terminated? Are you aware of the consequences of your action? Do you know he’s going to grow up with twisted values if he keeps going through unjust in life?”

“You’re exaggerating things. The children are merely messing around with one another,” the principal replied in a hushed voice with a sheepish grin.

She peered at the principal with a serious look. “If it was nothing serious, I believe you wouldn’t go to the hassle of summoning us here.”

Since the principal couldn’t get her to give him her consent, he turned around and asked Lu Biao’s mother, “You do realize the governor’s image will be adversely impacted if this incident makes it to the headline, don’t you?”

Lu Biao’s mother gave it a thought and said, “Ms. Bai, can we talk about it?”

It wouldn’t be necessary to have the conversation because Bai Rong knew the decision Lu Biao’s mother had in mind.

Nevertheless, she nodded and walked out of the principal’s office with her student’s mother. They walked over to the end of the corridor.

“Ms. Bai, thank you so much for defending Lu Biao. He would be wrongly accused by others if it weren’t for you. However, his father is a renowned figure. I’m afraid others will laugh at us for suing others over such a trivial matter. Shall we forget about it and get them to apologize?” Lu Biao’s mother suggested with a courteous smile.

I guess his parents are the ones at fault for not educating him and instilling the right values in him, huh? He must have grown up with twisted values because of his parents’ influences.

Bai Rong begged to differ and shared her opinions with the woman in front of her. “Have you forgotten the things that had occurred a few years ago? Are you going to let those who tried picking on him off the hook and have him go through another unjust in life? If you want him to behave himself, you need to let him know the laws have been devised for a reason. He needs to learn to restrain himself.”

“I can’t make the call without discussing it with his father.” Lu Biao’s mother had no intention to give up just yet. She implied she would have to get Lu Xingzhou’s consent before deciding the next best course of action.

Bai Rong responded with a smirk because the woman had made herself clear and indicated her will of letting the other party off the hook.

“It’s fine. Please take all the time you need to talk about it with him, but please keep the agreement I have with the governor in mind—I have the ultimate call throughout Lu Biao’s treatment plan. If anyone gets in my way and defies my words, our agreement will be voided.” Bai Rong made herself clear.

“You don’t consider this getting in the way of his treatment plan, do you?” Lu Biao’s mother asked with a concerned look.

“What do you think? Your decision may contribute an increasingly twisted value to my patient. However, since he’s your son, whereas I’m merely a counselor you have hired, you have the final call as his guardian. I’ll leave the rest to you and return to my patient.” Bai Rong nodded and excused herself, walking back to the office.

The eyes of Lu Biao’s mother flickered in irritation while she made a call to reach Lu Xingzhou.

“What do you want?” Lu Xingzhou asked petulantly.

“Where the heck does this so-called psychologist come from? She doesn’t live up to her name at all! Instead, she’s a rude and arrogant woman! She started getting ahead of herself because I was being courteous! Can you terminate her and get someone else to look after our son?” Lu Biao’s mother started panting with rage.

“Hadn’t you complimented her for a job well done yesterday? What’s wrong with you? Hasn’t she gotten Biao to finish his meal obediently and motivated him to go to school?” Lu Xingzhou got increasingly infuriated.

“She managed to defend Lu Biao from the three boys who tried to frame him for the things he hadn’t done. I don’t think it’s something to make a fuss out of, but she insisted on suing them. Since Biao used to do silly things back in the day, I’m afraid others will bring it up if we make a fuss out of it.”

“Seriously? You’re annoying me because of such a trivial matter? Can’t you deal with it on your own?” Lu Xingzhou’s tone wasn’t as callous as his previous replies.

“She said if we get in her way and interfere with her treatment plan, she reserves the right to void the agreement she has with you! Lu Biao is my son! Can’t I make the call on his behalf as his mother?” Lu Biao’s mother got increasingly frustrated.

Her husband went dead silent at that score.

“You have paid her a fortune. Are we able to ask for a refund if the agreement is voided?” Lu Biao’s mother probed further.

“No.”

“I think she’s doing this on purpose! I have never seen such an arrogant psychologist before. It’s all part of her plan to scam our money. If anything goes wrong in the future, we’re not able to blame her. She made use of the terms against us and took a few days’ leaves when the agreement had just commenced. Since Biao has returned to school, she doesn’t have to waste her time anymore. To be honest, I don’t trust such a vicious and cunning woman with our son. Why don’t you get her to return us the fortune and leave our son alone?”

Lu Xingzhou felt lightheaded because of the seemingly trivial issue his wife had brought up out of the blue. “I’ll have you in charge and deal with the welfare of our son! If you can’t take good care of him, I think I should file for divorce with you and give birth to a brilliant son with someone else.”

His wife started sniffling and replied in an aggrieved tone, “How can you blame me when you were the one who insisted on having me quitting my job?”

He couldn’t stand it anymore because she started weeping. Seconds after he heard her, he hung up the call.

Lu Biao’s mother couldn’t suppress her wrath and deemed Bai Rong the reason she was reprimanded by her husband.

The infuriated woman returned to the principal’s office and announced her decision, disregarding Bai Rong’s presence. “My husband and I have decided to forget about this since they’re classmates.”

Bai Rong took note of the woman’s words and knew the outcome that would be in store for her soon.

“Why? Since they have wrongly accused me, they should be thrown behind bars!” Lu Biao got worked up and confronted his mother.

She reprimanded her son in front of others, “Can you please get along with your classmates and stop causing me trouble?”

As a result, Lu Biao looked at Bai Rong with an aggrieved look.

Bai Rong smiled and said, “Since your parents are your guardians, there’s nothing much I can do about it because we share different values. Due to that, I’m no longer your home tutor from now onwards. You need to give your best in life, okay? I’m sure you can do it.”

“Mom! I want Ms. Bai to be my home tutor!” Lu Biao raised his voice and demanded.
