Chapter 138: One hundred thirty-seven, untouchable
Everyone looked up to see a middle-aged man entering the room. He was dressed in a black woolen suit, his hair combed and glistening with oil, and his figure was slightly corpulent. He was none other than the father of the twin brothers, Guo Youcai.
"Director Guo, good to see you!" the principal went forward, smiling as he shook hands with him. The man was the director of the supply and marketing cooperative and quite well-known in Fangting Town. Because of this, the schoolteachers turned a blind eye to the twins’ behavior. Offending the director of the sales outlet could make shopping inconvenient for them in the future.
Guo Youcai withdrew his hand, looking at the principal with a cold sneer, "I just heard the principal was about to issue a major demerit, whom is it for?" This was the first time he had been called to the school because of his sons fighting, and he was naturally displeased. Moreover, he heard very clearly at the doorway that the principal was making his sons apologize to someone else. His sons were too precious, how could they apologize to anyone?
With an awkward smile, the principal replied, "Director Guo, this time it’s your sons who are at fault first. Our school is merely handling this impartially and I hope you can understand." He had already weighed his options; at worst, he could avoid shopping at the sales outlet should he offend Guo Youcai.
Offending Luo Shu, however, was tantamount to offending the entire populace of Cloud City. The lives of the people in Cloud City had been saved by Luo Shu. Her status among the citizens probably rivaled even the prefect’s.
Guo Youcai huffed coldly, turning to glance at Luo Zheng who stood beside his sons, "Where are the parents of the other party? I would like to have a good talk with them about how they teach their child. Such lack of manners!" He refused to believe that the other party wouldn’t soften their stance after knowing who he was.
"I am here," Luo Shu said in a cool voice.
At her words, Guo Youcai shifted to one side to get a better look at Luo Shu. As he was not as tall as the principal and Luo Shu was seated, he had not noticed her before.
