Chapter 87 Du Jie's Parents

Xie Linxiao wore a faint smile, but behind that smile lay an undeniable chill.

“Now that Songchu’s household registration has been transferred to my name, as her guardian, I have a responsibility to seek justice for her.”

His tone was calm, but every word was like a heavy hammer, striking the hearts of everyone present and freezing the atmosphere instantly.

"Please give us some instructions, Principal Meng and Director Kong. Now that the person has been found, we hope the school can handle this matter impartially."

His gaze swept over everyone present, finally settling on Du Jie.

"After all, Songchu suffered a great injustice here, and as parents, we expect the school to provide a reasonable explanation and compensation."

Jiang Songchu felt a warm current surge in her heart as she listened to Xie Linxiao's words.

Seeing this, Teacher Kong felt an invisible pressure and unconsciously raised his hand to wipe away non-existent sweat from his forehead. For a moment, he didn't know what to do.

Upon seeing this, Principal Meng quickly stated, "Of course, the school has always upheld the principle of fairness, and this matter will certainly be handled properly."

His tone shifted abruptly, his gaze sharpening as he stared directly at Du Jie: "Du Jie, did you really do all this?"

Du Jie still wore that nonchalant smile and lazily said, "I did it."

His tone was full of disdain, clearly showing no remorse for what he had done.

Upon hearing this, Teacher Kong turned ashen with anger, his finger almost touching Du Jie's nose, his voice trembling: "Why did you do this?" His eyes were filled with disappointment in his student.

Du Jie curled his lip in disdain. He glanced at Teacher Kong, then turned his gaze to Jiang Songchu, his eyes filled with resentment and his words full of provocation.

"There's no reason why, I just did it because I wanted to."

"You're just a pretty face, yet so many people like you. What makes you so special? Do you even deserve it? Hah!"

Jiang Songchu looked back coldly, scrutinizing Du Jie closely, her mind rapidly searching her memories. Du Jie's face gradually overlapped with a blurry one.

Although she was certain that she had never crossed paths with Du Jie, the sense of familiarity grew stronger.

Suddenly, a name flashed through her mind like lightning. She abruptly raised her head, her eyes sharpening as she stared intently at Du Jie: "Qiu Fanghua, who is she to you?"

Du Jie was taken aback by Jiang Songchu's question, and an unnatural look flashed across his face.

But he quickly concealed his unease and let out a cold laugh: "What Qiu Fanghua? Are you having a delusional episode?"

Upon hearing Du Jie's rebuttal, Jiang Songchu was already seven or eight parts certain. She was convinced that there must be some kind of connection between Du Jie and Qiu Fanghua.

She smiled, a smile tinged with coldness and relief: "So you do know her."

In the spacious yet somewhat oppressive office, Du Jie seemed to be provoked by those words, his emotions instantly erupting like ignited gunpowder, his voice sounding particularly jarring in the quiet space.

"I do not know what you're talking about!"

Du Jie's face was contorted with rage, his eyes wide open as if they were about to spit fire, and his voice trembled with anger.

"Jiang Songchu, what makes you think you can win a gold medal in a calligraphy and painting competition, and then enter the entertainment industry and gain so many fans? Your life is like it's been blessed with a cheat code, everything has gone smoothly!"

Jiang Songchu sat in her seat, facing Du Jie's accusations, a look of confusion on her face.

She didn't understand why her excellence would become a reason for others to attack her.

She frowned slightly, looking calmly at Du Jie, as if waiting for him to give a reasonable explanation.

He glared at Jiang Songchu, his eyes filled with jealousy and resentment.

Du Jie continued to roar, "At the same time, your grades have improved, and you even got a perfect score in math this time! How is that possible?"

"You actually went to audition for the female lead in 'Red Cloud Swordsman'? Do you even deserve it?"

"You think you're worthy to compete with Ye'er? What a joke!"

Seeing Jiang Songchu's indifferent expression despite her furrowed brows, Du Jie became even more agitated, breathing heavily and his chest heaving violently.

His face was as red as a boiled shrimp, and his neck had thickened as if all the blood in his body had rushed there.

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Then, his laughter suddenly broke out, tinged with madness and despair.

However, the laughter did not last long.

Xie Linxiao stood in front of Du Jie, his gaze sharp and penetrating, as if he could see into people's hearts.

He spoke slowly, each word like a precise arrow, striking Du Jie's vitals.

"Du Jie, right? If I remember correctly, your mother is Qiu Fanghua."

Xie Linxiao's voice was calm yet powerful, gradually revealing the secret in Du Jie's heart.

Du Jie's smile froze on his face. He was slightly taken aback, and a hint of panic and vigilance flashed in his eyes.

However, Xie Linxiao did not give him a chance to refute.

He continued, "You were born when Qiu Fanghua was in college, and your father was her boyfriend at the time. You lived with your father from a young age, and Qiu Fanghua has never come to see you since she married into a wealthy family."

These words were like a sharp knife, piercing deeply into Du Jie's heart.

The flush on his face vanished instantly, leaving him pale, and his lips trembled slightly.

He recalled that when he was a child, his mother would coax him to eat, coax him to sleep, and buy him many toys.

However, all of this vanished after her mother left.

Those images flashed through his mind like a movie, causing him a suffocating pain.

Xie Linxiao continued speaking.

"It's true that you like Bai Ye'er, because you were deeply drawn to the mother she played before."

“However, you are more attached to your mother, Qiu Fanghua.”

"You think that no matter how many wrong things she does, she's still your mother, right?"

"After Qiu Fanghua's previous online revelations were proven false, you started plotting how to get revenge on Song Chu, right?"

"It's really kind of you to stand up for your mother at such a young age."

As Xie Linxiao spoke, the entire office fell into a deathly silence, with only Du Jie's heavy breathing and the sound of everyone's heartbeats.

At this moment, Du Jie's body trembled slightly, as if he had been stripped of all pretense and exposed naked in front of everyone.

Yes, he had always stood up for his mother and had always tried to prove his existence and worth.

However, all of this became so pale and powerless after Xie Linxiao's revelations.

Yes, he is Qiu Fanghua's son, and Qiu Fanghua once loved him like a normal mother.

Unfortunately, those wonderful times didn't last long.

After Qiu Fanghua left, he could only rely on his father for support.

My father often drank to drown his sorrows. Watching the image of the female news anchor on his phone, he would drink and cry, calling out "Fang Hua"...
