It was truly embarrassing, Teacher Xiao Zhao hadn't had many students, but she felt that even if she taught young cubs for the rest of her life, she probably wouldn't encounter such… sensible young cubs like those in the Bella Flower Class again.
Looking at the room full of cubs chirping like little birds, demanding their parents be called, Teacher Xiao Zhao felt her vision go black.
After much persuasion, Teacher Xiao Zhao managed to stop the cubs from their noisy chatter, and in the end, only the parents of Luo Qi, Mo Jue, and Xiao Xingxing were invited.
She wasn't sure if Teacher Xiao Zhao was overthinking it, but she even saw some regret on the children's faces.
Teacher Xiao Zhao was bewildered; when did inviting parents become something to be eagerly sought after?
She sighed and looked at the group gathered around her. She placed Luo Qi on the ground and told Luo Qi and the others to send communications to their parents.
Half an hour later, the first parent to arrive at the school was indeed Cecy.
Cecy smiled at Luo Qi, "Oh, Luo Luo got into a fight again? Did you win?"
Luo Qi nodded firmly, "I won! I wasn't hurt at all!"
Cecy was very proud. Look, this was a cub of their insect race.
He ruffled Luo Qi's head and praised, "Well done… wait, why did you fight with your classmates?"
The hand that had been gently placed on Luo Qi's head suddenly changed direction and slapped Luo Qi on the back.
Luo Qi: "??? Dad, didn't you say..."
Cecy covered Luo Qi's mouth and, with a flawless smile, looked at Teacher Xiao Zhao and hissed, "Teacher, children are ignorant. I've already disciplined him."
Teacher Xiao Zhao's smile was strained. Was your discipline the relieved smile on your face when classmate Luo Qi said he won the fight just now?
Based on her experience as classmate Luo Qi's teacher for a whole year, she decided to pretend she hadn't heard what Cecy said.
Teacher Xiao Zhao's excellent professional demeanor allowed her to maintain a smile while facing Cecy and Luo Qi's blatant falsehoods.
"Mr. Cecy, regarding today's incident, based on what the children reported to me, it wasn't necessary to invite you. However, Luo Qi is very polite and felt that since he hit a classmate, he still wanted to invite you."
Cecy raised an eyebrow and looked at Luo Qi. He knew Luo Qi; he only took advantage of others and never suffered any losses himself. So, if he insisted on coming today, there must be something going on?
Cecy showed no change in his expression, echoed a few words along with Teacher Xiao Zhao, picked up Luo Qi, and followed Teacher Xiao Zhao.
Luo Qi, nestled in Cecy's arms, quietly whispered into Cecy's ear, "Dad, the one I fought with is from the Mo clan. Mo Xuan said to be careful of him. He just transferred today and already pushed Xiao Xingxing to the ground."
There were some things Luo Qi knew he didn't need to explain too clearly. As long as he gave a hint, Cecy would naturally have a way to deal with it.
Cecy ruffled Luo Qi's head and chuckled softly, but the smile didn't reach his eyes. "It's fine. The insect race truly doesn't take the current Mo clan seriously."
Teacher Xiao Zhao, walking ahead, felt a drop of cold sweat slide down her temple. Had she accidentally overheard some significant interstellar secret?
After sitting calmly in the office for a while, the elder of the Mo clan finally arrived late.
Besides Mo Xuan, Luo Qi had no idea what kind of race the Mo clan was, nor what people of the Mo clan were like. He watched the doorway with the solemnity of facing a great enemy, waiting to see what the people of the Mo clan were like.
The man who entered, following Mo Jue, was tall and slender, with a wisp of half-white beard at his jawline. His hair was half-tied in a round bun, adorned with a long hairpin of an unknown material that faintly emitted a jade-like luster.
Looking from top to bottom, the most striking thing was that the man was actually wearing a… Taoist robe?
Luo Qi's eyes widened in shock. Respect, respect! So the clan leader of the Mo clan was actually a Taoist priest?
The Mo clan leader flicked his whisk. The attire that should have exuded an immortal aura was worn by this person with an air of sharpness.
Luo Qi had seen Taoist priests in those film and television works, all appearing like reclusive masters.
But the clan leader of the Mo clan before him had deep eyes, with flashes of shrewd and fierce light occasionally appearing in them. Instead of the ethereal grace of those Taoist priests, he exuded only the authority of someone who had held a high position for many years.
The Mo clan leader, Mo Li, smiled sinisterly, "Which cub beat up my son?"
Although he said this, his gaze was fixed directly on Luo Qi, who was facing the door.
In that instant, Luo Qi felt as if he were being stared at by a wild beast.
