Zhang Lili’s mother interrupted Principal Liu. “Principal Liu, our Zhang family is a well-respected family in Jingcheng. Are you really willing to offend us for the sake of someone like Shen Jing? My husband is even investing in your school’s research institute. Aren’t you afraid that we will withdraw our funding? It’s a substantial investment of several tens of millions. Principal Liu, you better think carefully.”

Upon hearing this, Shen Jing raised her eyes. Several tens of millions? Is that a lot?

Principal Liu smiled. “Mrs. Zhang, are you trying to threaten me?”

“Shen Jing calls you ‘Uncle Liu,’ but I haven’t heard that you have a niece. She’s just a child from a friend’s family,” sneered Zhang Lili’s mother. She continued to threaten, “How about this? If you expel Shen Jing, our Zhang family will invest another twenty million. What do you think?” It was Zhang Lili who made the mistake in the first place, but Zhang Lili’s mother shamelessly demanded that Principal Liu expel Shen Jing. Wasn’t this taking advantage of their power?

Inspired by her mother’s attitude, Zhang Lili also became defiant. Yes, even if it was her fault, the one who would ultimately be expelled from the school would be Shen Jing! She looked at Shen Jing mockingly. “Shen Jing, it’s twenty million. I’m afraid you’ve never seen that much money in your life.”

Principal Liu’s eyelid twitched. The precious little baby from the Shen family had never seen that much money? Just as he was about to speak, a cold voice came from outside the door. “Twenty million, is that a lot?”

Fu Linyuan stood at the door. He had probably just rushed over from the company. Wearing a black suit and tie, his tightly pressed lips made him look stern and serious. When he narrowed his eyes, he exuded an oppressive aura. He walked in with his long legs and steady steps, with Fu Nan respectfully following behind him.

Zhang Lili’s mother was about to express her dissatisfaction, but when she saw Fu Linyuan’s face, she was scared out of her wits. Young Master Fu? Everyone knew that Fu Linyuan had been exiled to Jingcheng, but his capability should not be underestimated, regardless of his current circumstance. In any case, Fu Linyuan was the eldest grandson of the Fu family, someone not to be trifled with!

Principal Liu was also somewhat surprised. Why did Fu Linyuan come over? However, he didn’t think too much about it. He had just rushed over and said so much. He was a bit thirsty and casually picked up the teapot beside him, pouring himself a cup of water to drink.

“Third Young Master Fu…” Zhang Lili’s mother stuttered, “Why…why are you here?”

Fu Linyuan didn’t answer, nor did he bother to answer. He greeted Principal Liu first, then walked to Shen Jing’s side and possessively embraced her waist. “Wife.”

Principal Liu spat out the tea he had just drunk! What the hell was this? Wife?!

Shen Jing was also stunned. This was the first time she had heard Fu Linyuan call her his wife.

Zhang Lili’s mother’s expression was horrifying. Wife? Third Young Master Fu called Shen Jing his wife?

Fu Linyuan then glanced casually at Zhang Lili’s mother. “Mrs. Zhang, you were quite impressive just now.”

“No, no, Third Young Master Fu, I didn’t know… I didn’t know Shen Jing was your wife. It was just a misunderstanding. We’ve already resolved it. You are the bigger person with a big heart, please forgive me,” Zhang Lili’s mother said, nearly on the verge of tears. Her family in Jingcheng had some wealth, but it was nothing compared to what Fu Linyuan could easily wipe out. She didn’t dare to offend him!

Zhang Lili was trembling in fear. How did Shen Jing suddenly have so many backers?

“A misunderstanding?” Fu Linyuan chuckled. “Mrs. Zhang, your daughter was wronged, and you caused such a huge fuss. Now, my wife has been wronged, and you call it a misunderstanding and ask me not to bother with you. Do you think I am so magnanimous? You bullied my people, and you want me to let you go?”

“Third Young Master Fu…” Zhang Lili’s mother was on the verge of tears. “I apologize, I apologize to Shen Jing…”

“A casual apology, what good does it do?” Fu Linyuan replied indifferently.

Zhang Lili’s mother was about to kneel down.

“Twenty million,” Fu Linyuan continued nonchalantly. “Mrs. Zhang, your tone was quite arrogant just now. It seems like the Zhang family has been doing well lately.”

Zhang Lili’s mother instantly tensed up. “No, no, Third Young Master Fu…”

“Don’t be so nervous, Mrs. Zhang,” Fu Linyuan smirked. “I won’t do anything to you. However, I’ll trouble you to go back and tell your husband that before managing his company, he should take care of his own family. If he can’t handle family matters, I don’t think he needs to bother with the company anymore.”

Zhang Lili’s mother’s legs went weak, and she nearly knelt down. She looked at Fu Linyuan in horror, fearing that his next words would make the Zhang family go bankrupt.
