Tong Wenjie felt she had embarrassed herself terribly in front of all the other parents. She could hardly bear to face anyone.
So, feeling both humiliated and furious, she went inside with a cold expression and brisk steps. From her stormy demeanor, everyone knew Fang Yifan was in for it.
Seeing his mother's imposing entrance, Fang Yifan rubbed his eyes instinctively. When he realized he wasn't seeing things, he cried out in alarm, "Mom! Mom!"
Of course, he wasn't excited because he'd missed her. He was scared. He knew he'd embarrassed her badly, and she was bound to give him a thorough beating. He decided that discretion was the better part of valor and immediately made a run for it.
When Lin Lei'er saw Fang Yifan run, he instinctively wanted to flee too. But he was too loyal to leave Ji Yangyang behind, so he grabbed the dazed boy and tried to drag him along.
Who could have guessed that Ji Yangyang wouldn't run? Lin Lei'er was pulled off balance and fell onto the sofa. He flailed his arms and accidentally grabbed Fang Yifan's bath towel, yanking it right off him and onto the floor.
All Fang Yifan had on underneath was his swim trunks, and Lin Lei'er's tug left them barely covering him. It wouldn't have mattered if he'd gone straight into the water, but now he couldn't get away. He could only scramble to pull his trunks up where he stood.
The delay gave Tong Wenjie time to rush over and pin him to the sofa, where she slapped him several times.
Fang Yifan hadn't expected Ji Yangyang and Lin Lei'er to team up and sabotage him at such a crucial moment. Once he'd pulled up his trunks, he was ready to endure Tong Wenjie's beating
