For some reason, Baby Chu was finally willing to speak up now that Gu Jinglian was here. In between sobs, the boy told them everything.

It turned out that all the kids in cla.s.s thought that he was the one who had caused Nuohan to transfer schools. It wasn’t that the little kids liked Nuohan, but it was because of what had happened to Nuohan, that they became afraid of Baby Chu. They might not have perceived how Nuohan had ostracized Baby Chu, but they felt that if they played with Baby Chu and made him angry, then they would be the next transfer student.

For a moment, Gu Chengze’s name conjured up the image of a demon king. All the little kids started to be afraid of him and fear him. Baby Chu felt extremely wronged. He felt like he was being isolated for no reason.

When Gu Jinglian heard this, his expression darkened with anger. When Butler Fu said that something had happened to Baby Chu, he had thought that it was something serious. So he took time out of his busy schedule to make a trip home. And it turned out to be a matter like this?!

Gu Jinglian pushed the boy’s face away in disdain, and said in an extremely icy tone, “If you don’t want to go to school, then just stay home. There’s no difference.”

Baby Chu’s eyes widened in shock as he looked at the man through teary eyes. “What?”

Gu Jinglian had always had limited patience. He did not like to repeat himself.

…

“If you don’t want to go to school, then just stay home. There’s no difference,” the man repeated patiently.

Baby Chu had initially thought that Gu Jinglian would console him or hold him in his arms and coax him. He did not expect his father to say that he didn’t have to go to school!

“Ahhhhhh…” Baby Chu was dumbfounded at this unconventional remark.

“What is it?” Gu Jinglian raised an eyebrow. “You don’t wish to go to school, is that it? You can stay home, there’s no difference.”

Even if he did not study or go to school and stayed at home all his life, Gu Jinglian would still hire the best teacher for him. A degree was important. But to Gu Jinglian, it was nothing worth mentioning. To him, certain things that were too formal could be settled with money and power. In other words, if Baby Chu stayed in the Gu family and they hired a tutor to teach him, they could buy him an honorary degree from a famous university when he grew older, and it wouldn’t make a difference.

“I’ll get Butler Fu to find you a teacher tomorrow. You may stay home.”

“No!” Baby Chu was not satisfied with the man’s suggestion. He mumbled, “I want to go to school.”

“Then why didn’t you go today?” Gu Jinglian asked.

Baby Chu was speechless. Gu Jinglian chided the boy, “There must be a limit to being willful. Coming and going as you wish, based on your own whim, is this acceptable? You have to be responsible for your own decisions. Do you still want others to be responsible for you?”

“…”

Baby Chu fell silent, aggrieved by the chiding. However, he did not dare to defy Gu Jinglian’s authority. In the boy’s opinion, Gu Jinglian’s words were very authoritative. His words was the law.

This is perhaps the difference between a father and a mother. To a child, their image of a father is grand and intimidating.

Some tricks that he could pull with Chu He, did not work with Gu Jinglian.

How could he not see Baby Chu’s intentions? After being wronged in school, he had come home to complain so that his father could resolve his problem for him yet again. However, Gu Jinglian did not want Baby Chu to be too reliant on him.

Gu Jinglian added fiercely, “If you continue to refuse to go to school tomorrow, I’ll get Butler Fu to withdraw you from school permanently..”
