Chapter 5 Methods for Dealing with Unruly Children
Chapter 5 Methods for Dealing with Unruly Children
Chengjiang City Police Department.
"Officer, yes, these are the two naughty kids who were speeding and weaving around on their bicycles in the non-bicycle lane."
"Not only that, but he also deliberately rode on the blind path. If I hadn't been with my friend today, I don't know what would have happened."
"And also, officer, look at my clothes and my waist, they've all snagged on them."
Inside the police station, two unruly children huddled timidly against the wall, their eyes red-rimmed, clearly having just calmed down after being frightened to tears.
Cheng Ning sat on a chair with Duo Duo in her hand, while Lu Ran stood up, facing a policeman who was about the same age as him, listing the crimes of the naughty child.
"Uncle Policeman," he seemed hesitant to speak, unable to get a word in edgewise.
The police officer helplessly raised his hand: "Don't be in such a hurry, let me say a few words, okay?"
Lu Ran then stopped talking and laughed, "Haha, Officer, please speak."
"Uncle Policeman" pointed to two little boys by the wall.
"I've heard your explanation of the situation. I've already notified their parents. Are you sure you want to proceed with the procedures?"
Lu Ran nodded: "Let's go, we have to go."
"If a child is raised but not taught, it is the father's fault. If the teaching is not strict, it is the teacher's laziness!"
"Not only the parents, but it would be best if their homeroom teacher also came to take a look."
When the two little boys heard that they were to be called their homeroom teacher, tears welled up in their eyes again.
"Waaaaah~ Don't call the homeroom teacher, I was wrong."
"I was wrong, I'll never do it again."
The police officer rubbed his forehead.
I really want to say, "Why are you, a grown man, arguing with two children?" But upon closer reflection, given his position, he shouldn't be saying such things.
He then asked seriously, "Okay, but you'd better promise that you haven't laid a hand on them beforehand."
This statement reveals that the "police officer" is more on Lu Ran's side.
Lu Ran smiled and said, "Don't worry, officer. We are all law-abiding citizens who have received higher education and have studied law. We will not do anything illegal."
The police officer nodded: "Alright, go sit down and wait a while until their parents come to discuss this further."
"it is good."
Lu Ran then walked over and sat down next to Cheng Ning, satisfied.
Cheng Ning put down the cane, her hand grasping at air twice before finally touching Lu Ran's arm.
She murmured softly, "Lu Ran, maybe we should just forget about it."
"Listen, they're crying again. It's so pitiful."
Lu Ran replied seriously, "They're not scared, they just know they're going to get punished."
"When they were showing off their car skills on the blind path before, they weren't pitiful at all. They're in fifth grade now, not three-year-olds. They should know right from wrong."
"You can't shirk responsibility just because you've made a small mistake."
"Of course, I have no interest in tutoring other people's children. All I know is that they almost bumped into you, ruined my clothes, and the abrasion on my waist still hurts."
"I won't rest until I get an explanation."
"Oh, didn't you say you were fine!" Upon hearing that Lu Ran was injured, Cheng Ning immediately felt guilty.
Lu Ran pursed her lips, then quietly leaned close to Cheng Ning's ear.
"It's just a minor cut, it doesn't hurt, but I have to exaggerate it, so please cooperate."
Speaking at such close range felt like breathing into Cheng Ning's ear.
This made her body tense up suddenly, and her face instantly turned bright red.
"well."
Lu Ran then realized that his actions were a bit too intimate, and said embarrassedly, "Um, I..."
"Ziheng".
"Zihao."
Fortunately, the child's parents arrived at that moment, which broke the awkward atmosphere between the two.
"Mom and Dad."
When the two little boys saw their parents, they cried even harder and rushed into their parents' arms, looking so pitiful.
"Son, don't cry. Tell Mommy who bullied you."
"Son, are you alright? Are you hurt?"
Looking over there, Lu Ran pursed his lips.
Everyone says that children don't lie, but in his opinion, that's complete nonsense.
These kinds of kids are the best at pretending. When they make a mistake, they just cry and cry because they know that as long as they cry hard enough, their parents will feel sorry for them and forgive their mistakes.
As he predicted, things turned out just as he had expected.
The parents of the two unruly children immediately confronted Lu Ran, demanding an explanation.
Fortunately, the police officer was very responsible and explained the situation again in front of everyone.
Lu Ran had been observing the two boys closely ever since their parents entered the room.
A conclusion was reached a few minutes later.
Judging from their clothing and appearance, these two families should be ordinary families. Judging from their conversation with the police, neither couple is highly educated.
Therefore, Lu Ran's demand was that he wouldn't have to pay compensation, but he had to get the homeroom teacher to issue a public reprimand to the whole class, otherwise he would sue the two boys so that they would be unable to take the civil service exam in the future.
Before the "police officer" could even smooth things over, that was the case.
The two couples then called their children's homeroom teachers and offered compensation and apologies.
in this way.
That's when the matter was finally resolved.
···
"Why did you insist that their parents notify the homeroom teacher?"
On the way back, Cheng Ning asked Lu Ran curiously.
Lu Ran answered with a smile.
"That's because they're scared, of course. When dealing with these little brats, you have to do the exact thing to them that they're most afraid of."
"Don't they like to pretend they're not afraid of teachers?"
"Hey, I'm going to make sure their homeroom teacher knows what they did, and I'm going to make sure their classmates know they broke the law and are in jail."
"I'm sure those two kids will never dare to ride their bikes on the tactile paving for the visually impaired again in their lifetime."
You spent a morning with Cheng Ning that wasn't exactly pleasant, but made her feel very safe.

[Your courage in standing up for her made Cheng Ning feel, for the first time, the tender protection she experienced from someone outside her family. She was touched. Although she didn't want to pursue the matter too much, she liked the feeling of someone standing up for her. Well done.]
[Gain an extra 30 Chest XP points.]
Lu Ran was taken aback.
It can even trigger extra rewards!!
"Thank you, Lu Ran."
Cheng Ning couldn't see, so she couldn't watch Lu Ran sincerely say those words of thanks.
But she replaced eye contact with her own way.
···
Looking at the girl who grabbed his arm and thanked him, Lu Ran felt a little ashamed.
He could say with a clear conscience that even without the system mission, he would have helped Cheng Ning, or someone like Cheng Ning.
He would help if there were no system tasks, but he might not have the courage to do so.
Because often, doing good deeds comes at a price.
"actually···"
Lu Ran wanted to say, "Actually, you don't need to thank me too much. I'm not as good as you think. I also have my own interests in helping you."
But after thinking about it, he still couldn't bring himself to say it.
Because blind people are often very sensitive, his words might make Cheng Ning think that he is distancing himself from her.
This will make Cheng Ning sad.
So I stopped myself from saying it.
"Actually what?" Cheng Ning tilted her head and asked.
Lu Ran laughed and said, "Actually, you should thank me properly and treat me to a meal or something."
Cheng Ning smiled and said, "Come to my place, I'll cook for you, how about that?"
She regretted it as soon as she said it; who would treat someone like that? It seemed too stingy.
However, Lu Ran clapped her hands and said, "Well, it's a deal then. I'm waiting. You cook noodles so well, so your cooking must be delicious too."
Cheng Ning nodded, her smile incredibly beautiful.
