The cell phone that was charging downstairs kept ringing, and Song Youan hurried downstairs to answer it.

Caller ID - Brother.

"elder brother."

The voice on the other end of the phone was anxious: "Youan, why aren't you answering the phone? And you're not replying to messages."

"My phone is on silent, I didn't hear it, what's wrong?"

Gu Tianpei let out a long sigh. "I was so scared! I thought something had happened to you. Are you free at 4:30 this afternoon? Jiaojiao has a parent-teacher conference, and I have an important meeting and can't leave. Could you go in my place?"

Song Youan glanced at the time. She had been busy in Dazhao for a long time and it was already three o'clock in the afternoon.

"Okay, no problem, I'll go."

My cousin is my aunt's child and her closest relatives. Before she passed away, she handed over the family company to my cousin. My cousin is only ten years old now and is still in elementary school.

After hanging up the phone, Song Youan sent a message to Yan Fei asking him to pick her up, and Yan Fei replied immediately.

About forty minutes later, a horn sounded outside the gate.

Song Youan dressed up carefully and got into the car carrying a Prada bag.

"Go to Murphy International Primary School in Jianye District."

Yan Fei started the car and asked, "What are you going to school for?"

"A parent-teacher conference for my sister."

"Ah? You're not an only child?"

Song Youan glanced at him and said, "My aunt's daughter."

Song Youan had told him before that this villa was left to her by her aunt when she passed away. When Yan Fei heard Song Youan say this, he said "Oh" with an embarrassed look on his face and did not ask any more questions.

At about 4:15, the car stopped at the school gate.

Unlike other elementary schools in Jinghai City, Murphy International Elementary School ends at 4:00 PM. This school is a renowned aristocratic institution, and today, there's a parents' meeting, so luxury cars are bustling in and out of the school gate.

In Class 2, Grade 3, Song Youan entered the classroom almost on time, and the seats in the class were almost full.

In the innermost window seat, a little girl in a blue and white school uniform sat with her head down, dejected, until she heard Song Youan's voice from the doorway: "Excuse me, teacher, I'm Gu Tianjiao's parent."

The little girl immediately raised her head, her eyes bright with excitement: "Sister!"

Song Youan smiled at her sister and entered the classroom after getting permission from the teacher.

Song Youan, with her beautiful appearance, naturally attracted the attention of many male parents. Their eyes followed her all the way to her seat, and only shifted their attention when the teacher spoke.

"Thank you all for taking the time to take the time to be with us, parents..."

Parent-teacher meetings in aristocratic schools are very special. There are almost no bad students in the eyes of teachers. Those who are naughty are energetic, those who are introverted are quiet and well-behaved, those with good grades are smart, and those with poor grades are also smart, but they don’t use their skills in study. However, they are outstanding in other aspects.

In short, it was like a commendation meeting, where every student was praised one by one, and the parents were happy to hear it.

After the teacher has given feedback on the students' performance in school, the parents will be asked to give their opinions.

Many parents have made many suggestions on school meals, class hours and even school buses. The children in these aristocratic schools are the apple of their families' eyes. Even in school, they have to have the best food, clothing, housing and transportation.

The teacher actually typed notes on the computer and said that he would give feedback to the school leaders later and try to improve the situation to the parents' satisfaction.

Song Youan was secretly astonished when he heard this. It was indeed an aristocratic school with tuition fees of hundreds of thousands of dollars a year, and the children were served like emperors.

At the end, the teacher called out the names of two students individually: "Gu Tianjiao's parents and Li Minhao's parents, please stay for a moment. If there are no other problems, you can take your children back."

Song Youan was stunned when he heard this, and subconsciously lowered his head to look at his sister sitting in his arms. She quietly raised her eyes and looked at him, but the moment their eyes met, she lowered her head again, as if she had done something wrong.

"Why did you leave us alone? Did you get into trouble?" Song Youan asked in a low voice.

Gu Tianjiao pursed her lips and nodded, her small hands nervously picking at her nails as she whispered, "I broke Li Minhao's toy."

Song Youan couldn't help but laugh when she heard this: "It's okay, we'll compensate him later, and you can just apologize to this classmate."

Unexpectedly, Gu Tianjiao shook her head vigorously after hearing this and said angrily: "I won't apologize!"

"Why don't you apologize?" Song Youan frowned. She knew Jiaojiao had been spoiled by her family since she was a child, and her personality was somewhat spoiled, but she couldn't let her willfulness prevail when it came to right and wrong. Song Youan said patiently, "Of course you should apologize for breaking someone else's toy."

"He was the one who said that to me first, saying that I was a wild child without parents." Gu Tianjiao said, her voice choked and her eyes red, but she forced herself to hold back the tears and not let them fall.

When Song Youan heard this, his face instantly darkened.

It’s been less than half a year since my aunt passed away, and I haven’t fully gotten over it yet, let alone Jiaojiao, a ten-year-old child.

She touched her sister's head with heartache, and looked up at the teacher who was surrounded by parents on the podium.

Since the teacher allowed them to stay, he must have wanted to mediate the matter.

Song Youan asked her sister: "Does the teacher know?"

Gu Tianjiao nodded: "I know, the teacher also asked me to apologize to Li Minhao, but he was clearly the one who cursed first, why should I apologize too!"

Gu Tianjiao felt aggrieved and tickled her nails even harder.

Song Youan quickly held her hand and said, "I was wrong to ask you to apologize without understanding the situation. Don't worry, no one can bully you while I'm here."

Gu Tianjiao raised her head, looked at her sister with tearful eyes, and nodded gently.

After waiting for about twenty minutes, the parents with problems left one by one, leaving only the teacher on the podium, two parents and their children in the classroom.

Song Youan had already noticed the other person. Behind Li Minhao was a man in a suit and tie, looking like a successful man.

"Mr. Li, I'm sorry to waste your precious time. I will mediate the matter between the two children as soon as possible."

The teacher suddenly changed her professional look when she was standing on the podium, and showed such a flattering face when she faced the parents privately.

Song Youan looked at the young male teacher and frowned slightly.

He turned to look at Song Youan: "This lady is Gu Tianjiao's sister, right?"

Song Youan nodded expressionlessly, wanting to see how the teacher would mediate the matter.

He nodded and blurted out without thinking, "It's like this. Gu Tianjiao broke Li Minhao's toy during recess yesterday. Li Minhao said the toy was very expensive, so I wanted to take advantage of today's parents' meeting to ask the two parents to stay and discuss compensation."
