Chapter 304: Chapter 304 - 300: Mianmian Is My Daughter

The principal certainly knew they couldn’t afford to offend, nor could they afford to offend.

Their kindergarten is the largest noble private kindergarten in Jiang City. The owner behind it has connections abroad with the political world, has power and influence, but the parents who can send their children to this kindergarten are also prominent figures in Jiang City, all of whom are not to be offended. It can be said that these parents are all influential, and the principal can’t afford to offend them, so they can only mediate tactfully.

Haohao’s parents were sitting on the sofa in the principal’s office, with a disposable cup of water just delivered in front of them, but they didn’t drink it.

Haohao’s father looked upset, protecting his son by his side. Haohao leaned in his father’s arms, crying and shouting in pain. Haohao’s mother angrily scolded, "Is that Shi Mianmian from a single-parent family? Only has a mother, right? There are all kinds of people in our kindergarten, celebrities are common too, I know her mother is in the entertainment industry. There was a confidentiality agreement when entering school, but with such an incident, even if her mother were the emperor, she would still have to come out and apologize to our Haohao!"

The principal said, "Yes, yes, we will communicate with Ms. Shi later, but Ms. Shi should be busy in the afternoon. The teacher called her once but she didn’t answer, but we have contacted other members of Shi Mianmian’s family..."

"Other members? Who? Isn’t that wild child only with a mother? No father, who else could there be?" Haohao’s mother sneered, "We don’t chase stars, and on usual occasions, there are quite a few celebrities who want to curry favor with our company. That Shi Mianmian has the surname Shi, and looks a bit like that recently popular actress, could she really be that Shi Su?"

Haohao’s mother rolled her eyes while speaking, "Who still takes celebrities seriously nowadays? We also have connections in the circle. Is her agency Yijia Entertainment? Haohao’s father and I have some dealings with her company. Tell her to bring Shi Mianmian to apologize to our Haohao. If she doesn’t apologize, we can have Mr. Chen of Yijia Entertainment blacklist her anytime, leaving her in disgrace, unable to survive in that circle. Also... the fact that she has a daughter should still be a secret, right? If it were under normal circumstances, we couldn’t care less about such gossip, but if she doesn’t apologize..."

"This... it’s just two kids fighting. There’s really no need to blow it out of proportion," the principal said like a peacemaker, "Haohao’s mother, I hope you can give us some time to privately coordinate once we contact Mianmian’s mother."

"I don’t accept coordination! Either apologize and compensate, or Shi Su will be disgraced! My son was beaten like this, and that little wildling from her family, with no father to educate and no father to raise, shouldn’t think of having a peaceful day in any kindergarten in Jiang City!" Haohao’s mother slammed her expensive handbag heavily on the coffee table, setting her stance.

"Who are you threatening to have no peaceful days in Jiang City?"

A cold, deep male voice suddenly echoed in front of the principal’s office.

Haohao’s parents and the principal simultaneously turned their heads, only to see Shi Mianmian being held up by a tall, upright man.

Mianmian had just been pointed at and scolded by Haohao’s mother in the kindergarten. The teacher couldn’t even stop it. Mianmian stopped right when she saw Haohao’s mother with a fierce look and dared not go in.

Jing Jihan held her, lowered his head, and asked, "Mianmian?"

He squeezed her little hand, keeping the little girl’s white, chubby hand warm in his palm.

Lu Zhao softly said to Mianmian from behind, "Mianmian, don’t be afraid."

Mianmian paused again, then followed Jing Jihan inside.

The moment Haohao’s mother saw Mianmian, she was about to jump up but suddenly noticed the man who walked in. Her gaze quickly shifted upward. Upon seeing Jing Jihan clearly, she first frowned, then turned her gaze in shock to meet the eyes of Haohao’s father, who suddenly stood up by the sofa.

This person is...?

Isn’t this Mr. Jing?!!!

The principal, not acquainted with the business world, didn’t recognize him at first and politely asked, "Who might this be...?"

The kindergarten teacher followed in but didn’t know how to introduce him.

Jing Jihan placed Mianmian in front of him, gently rested a hand on the child’s head, and looked at the principal with a faint, chill gaze, his voice clear as a spring: "I am Shi Mianmian’s father."

Haohao’s mother: "..."

Haohao’s father: "..."

Haohao, with his swollen eyes from the beating, unaware of the situation, continued to whine, "Dad, I hurt!"

Haohao’s father quickly covered his son’s mouth, not knowing what expression to make in front of this... suddenly appearing parent.

The principal was slow to react for a moment.

Isn’t Shi Mianmian from a single-parent family? Doesn’t she only have a mother?

The principal instinctively looked at Mianmian suddenly, "Shi Mianmian, is this your father?"

Mianmian stood in front of Jing Jihan, with the warm hand on her head. She just stood there a bit dazed. Upon hearing the principal ask this, she immediately turned around, looked up at Jing Jihan.

Jing Jihan also lowered his eyes to look at her, with a slight movement of his brows, it was comforting, encouraging, and also a confirmation of his previous sentence.

Mianmian blinked, still a bit confused. But then she turned her gaze back to the principal’s direction and nodded vigorously.

The principal, though puzzled, looking at the dignified man, thought a moment before about to speak when Haohao’s father suddenly spoke up: "Mr. Jing, this joke isn’t very funny... Your surname is Jing, this child’s surname is Shi... How could it be..."

Jing Jihan turned his gaze, casually glancing at the small boy beside Haohao’s father, then his look fixed on Haohao’s father: "I said Mianmian is my daughter, any problem?"

When he spoke, Jing Jihan’s gaze was as cold as winter frost.

Haohao’s father: "...No problem."

The principal suddenly seemed to understand and suddenly asked, "So... you two families know each other?"

Haohao’s parents were momentarily at a loss to answer, simply covering Haohao’s mouth that was endlessly trying to cry and scream, not letting their son make a sound, and looked towards Jing Jihan in shock and unspeakable complexity.

How could they not know each other?

Their family is the legal representative and beneficiary of Rongcang Stock Institution in Jiang City. Just a week ago, they participated in Yu Jing Group’s bidding for next year’s stock investment. They even tried every possible way to see Mr. Jing for a few words, hoping to get a handshake and later mix in some familiarity.

Who would have thought that the person they tried all sorts of relationships to see a week ago, they would meet here today!

Jing Jihan didn’t even acknowledge the look in the child’s parents’ eyes at the moment, but Haohao’s parents could feel that ever since Jing Jihan heard their conversation and walked into the office, his presence was chilling to the bone.
