"Little girl, could it be that we've scared your daddy so much he's wet his pants?"
Not only did Qian Susu mock Ye Ling'er with cold disdain, but also Xu Ming, standing beside her, joined in with a taunting smile on his face.
"Ye Ling'er, you see how powerful our family is, don't you? Is it that your daddy has been scared so much that he doesn't dare to co out?" Xu Tingting boasted with pride.
"Daddy, where are you?"
Subjected to ridicule by Xu Tingting's family, Ye Ling'er felt lost and helpless.
She refused to believe that her father Ye Fan wouldn't co to pick her up, but scanning the large scene before her, she couldn't find even a trace of him.
"Ye Ling'er, stop looking," Xu Tingting, proud as a swan, lifted her neck and said, "In front of my parents, all your poor old man's struggles are futile!"
"No, it can't be!" Ye Ling'er cried out loudly.
Ye Fan had never let her down from childhood up till now, and Ye Ling'er trusted that this ti would be no exception.
Amidst the mockery from Xu Tingting's family, a layer of mist clouded Ye Ling'er's eyes: "My dad will co to pick up. It's rush hour right now; he must be stuck in traffic!"
"Stuck in traffic?"
Upon hearing this, Qian Susu let out a mocking laugh: "Such a young age and yet you've learned to deceive yourself, how pathetic!"
Stay updated with empire
"Little girl, you might as well give up on any foolish hopes. Your dad definitely isn't coming to pick you up today!" Xu Ming also scoffed.
Xu Tingting was held in Qian Susu's arms, imperiously stating, "Ye Ling'er, you see, my parents are the most powerful. Your poor old man is just a useless waste. Just wait until tomorrow morning, you'll beco the laughing stock of the entire school!"
Thinking back on how Ye Fan and Ye Ling'er had stood up for themselves that morning, Xu Tingting's heart seethed with anger.
She resolved that if Ye Fan failed to pick up Ye Ling'er tonight, she would spread the word throughout the school first thing tomorrow that Ye Fan, blind to his own place, had provoked their family and ended up so scared he wet his pants and didn't dare to co pick up Ye Ling'er after school.
"You... you all..."
Staring at Xu Tingting's haughty posture, Ye Ling'er felt a bitterness inside.
Especially because it had been so long without a sign of her father Ye Fan, Ye Ling'er grew increasingly anxious.
"Ling'er, your dad couldn't really be not coming to pick you up, could he?"
"Yeah, Ling'er, if your dad doesn't co tonight, considering Xu Tingting's personality, she will definitely mock you rcilessly at school tomorrow!"
"What should we do? Don't worry, Ling'er, if your dad doesn't show up, we won't mock you tomorrow!"
Many of Ye Ling'er's friends who had a good relationship with her spoke out in support, expressing their disdain for Xu Tingting's newly rich arrogance.
Tang Shishi also ca out from the school at this mont. Seeing the bewildered Ye Ling'er, she approached and asked, "Ling'er, what's the matter? Didn't your dad co to pick you up?"
"Teacher Tang, do you think my dad might have forgotten to co pick up tonight?" Ye Ling'er said, her face full of grievance.
Having been helped by Ye Fan nurous tis recently, Tang Shishi had co to greatly respect his character, and she consoled, "Of course not, your dad must be detained by sothing for a little bit. And, Ling'er, you are an excellent student in both conduct and learning. Sotis there's no need to be so serious!"
With those words, Tang Shishi turned her gaze toward the family of three—Qian Susu, Xu Ming, and their daughter.
The showdown Xu Tingting's parents had sought with Ye Fan had caused quite a stir in the class, and Teacher Tang had heard about it. However, she hadn't expected Xu Tingting's parents to go so far as to arrange for thirty luxury cars just to pick up Xu Tingting from school, which seed to her beyond reason.
Teacher Tang had long been aware of Xu Tingting's wealthy family. Xu Tingting behaved arrogantly in class, often looking down on others. Despite multiple discussions with her, Xu Tingting would agree superficially to behave better but never changed her ways once back in class.
After being left with no alternative, Teacher Tang made two ho visits, only to be blatantly disregarded by Qian Susu and her husband Xu Ming.
It beca clear to Tang Shishi then that with such parents, Xu Tingting's upbringing was flawed, so it was no surprise that they raised a daughter like her.
Unable to discipline Xu Tingting, Tang Shishi had let her be, not expecting that this ti Xu Tingting's family would insist on challenging Ye Fan in earnest.
"Teacher Tang, I understand what you an," Ye Ling'er said with a crestfallen face.
Xu Tingting often humiliated her in class. Ye Ling'er had been waiting for Ye Fan to arrive powerfully tonight and spectacularly turn the tables but was dismayed by his absence at the school gate after school.
Ye Ling'er could foresee that if Ye Fan didn't co today, Xu Tingting would escalate her bullying and humiliate her even more harshly tomorrow.
Realizing Ye Fan wasn't going to show up, Xu Tingting said, "Dad, Mom, let's go ho. I don't think Ye Ling'er's poor old dad will co today either!"
"Tingting is right; let's go ho!"
Before getting into the car, Qian Susu looked fiercely at Ye Ling'er and said, "Little girl, tell your poor old dad to keep a low profile from now on. Otherwise, if I run into him again, I'll personally break his dog legs! Tingting, let's go!"
After saying that, Qian Susu opened the Rolls-Royce Phantom door, ready to leave.
"Dad really isn't coming?" Ye Ling'er was very disheartened.
Bang!!!
Boom boom boom boom boom!
Just when everyone thought that Ye Fan wouldn't co, suddenly, the roaring sounds of international supercar engines burst like thunder across Baihua Road.
"What's that? Race cars,—my God, so many race cars!"
"It really is race cars! One, two, so many of them!"
"Holy shit! Where did all these race cars co from? What... what's going on here?"
Seeing a slew of international supercars approaching, all the parents who had co to pick up their kids from school were stunned by the sight.
Looking around, one could see Lamborghinis, Ferraris, McLarens, and even more Lamborghinis, each car valued at no less than five million.
The parents who had initially been shocked by the display of wealth from Qian Susu's family found themselves even more overwheld as a vast quantity of international supercars arrived.
"What's going on? Where did all these race cars co from?"
As Qian Susu was about to get into her car, she was dumbfounded.
Xu Ming's eyes widened in disbelief.
Although he was now a company CEO with a significant net worth, he still hadn't owned a luxury car like a race car.
Even though their family now owned a Porsche 911, which fell under the category of race cars, Xu Ming saw the Porsche 911 as rely an entry-level race car, nowhere near the likes of Lamborghini or Ferrari.
Xu Ming turned to Qian Susu and couldn't help but boldly speculate, "Susu, could it be that this is Ye Ling'er's poor old dad's doing?"
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"
Upon hearing this, Qian Susu imdiately shook her head vehently; she absolutely refused to believe that a nobody like Ye Fan could mobilize so many race cars at once.
"Then what's going on?" Xu Ming asked in confusion.
Qian Susu's mind was filled with countless question marks: "You ask , who am I supposed to ask? In any case, I refuse to believe that this is the doing of Ye Ling'er's poor old dad!"
Although Qian Susu said she refused to believe it, a sense of ominous premonition rose within her, and it was getting stronger.
"Oh my goodness, everyone, look! Not only are there race cars, but a large group of people is also coming!" soone quickly exclaid.
"What?"
At this, many parents looked toward the not-so-distant street.
You wouldn't know until you looked, but upon looking, they were startled—nurous n in black suits were steadily arriving from the nearby area.
Ten people! Fifty people!
A hundred people!
Soone who was paying attention counted, and to their shock, they realized that this group of n in black suits numbered at least a thousand.
What shocked them most was that in front of the thousand black-suited n clearing the way, there was an endless line of luxury cars following them.
Turning pale, Xu Tingting, who was held in Qian Susu's arms, said, "Dad, Mom, look, it seems like these people are heading straight for Ye Ling'er. Oh my God, this... this couldn't be Ye Ling'er's dad arriving, could it?"
