Chapter 66: Deal with it severely
Lingshan glanced around before speaking sweetly to Su Can's mother. "Auntie Zeng, don't scold Su Can anymore. I was right there today. He was very brave!"
Zeng He kept smiling and nodding. "I won't, I won't."
"Uncle, Auntie, we should be going home too," Chen Lingshan said politely, her eyes turning to Su Can. "Stay in bed and get some rest. I'll come see you after school tomorrow!"
Chen Lingshan would have been the center of attention wherever she went. Zeng He knew who she was, and her clothes alone made it clear that she came from a well-off family. Now, with the gracious way she spoke on Su Can's account, all the adults present found her thoroughly refreshing.
Yin Shuying hurriedly smiled. "Yes, yes, you should all get home. Don't make your families worry. You must have had quite a fright today too. Go home and have dinner. Thank you, all of you."
Chen Lingshan nodded and headed for the door with Li Luomei. Li Luomei did not forget to give everyone a slight nod and say sweetly, "Goodbye, Uncle and Auntie!" As she did so, her gaze drifted almost imperceptibly toward Tang Wu's and Du Ting's faces, with a faint challenge in her eyes. She was merely adding fuel to the fire, making Chen Lingshan's impression on Su Can's family even stronger. Du Ting curled her lip in displeasure. Li Luomei was really throwing her weight around on someone else's strength.
Then Du Ting glanced at Tang Wu. She rather hoped Tang Wu would do something at this moment to take Chen Lingshan down a peg. But when she saw Tang Wu's clear, icy eyes, she thought, Forget it. Even having that idea was unrealistic enough.
Sure enough, Tang Wu said nothing.
