Chapter 369 A Child with a Powerful Background
When Qin Shengsheng and Qin Xi exposed her, Bai Xiaoyu's smugness instantly vanished.
People around them looked over and pointed at Bai Xiaoyu.
Bai Xiaoyu had always been highly respected at St. Mary's Kindergarten, and this was the first time she had embarrassed herself. She suppressed her anger and forced a stiff smile.
"Sheng Sheng, Xiao Xi, you've misunderstood. I did all this for the kindergarten, and even more so for Xiao Xi's sake!"
She pointed at Xiao Yanchao, her tone becoming more certain: "This transfer student just arrived yesterday, and several children in the kindergarten had stomach aches, vomiting and having diarrhea until midnight. And last night he even wrecked your brother's car!"
As she spoke, she stared at Xiao Yanchao's mask, as if she had found "ironclad evidence."
“Look at him, he wears a mask all the time, trying to cover himself up. What else could it be but something he's hiding or something wrong with him?”
Qin Shengsheng, who was already protective of Xiaoxi, felt a pang of anxiety upon hearing this. She quickly knelt down and touched Xiaoxi's forehead, her voice softening slightly: "Xiaoxi, are you feeling unwell anywhere? Do you have diarrhea or feel nauseous?"
Xiao Qinxi's heart skipped a beat when she was asked the question, and she secretly stuck out her tongue behind her back.
Oh no! It turns out that the infectious disease Bai Xiaoyu was looking for actually originated from within herself!
Qin Fang and the others' vomiting and diarrhea were not just a problem for Chao Chao.
It was clearly her! A few days ago, Qin Fang and his men deliberately ostracized her. She was furious, so she secretly took some medicine from Grandpa Liu and mixed it into their snacks…
But this absolutely cannot be said!
If her dad finds out, he'll not only scold her, but he'll definitely never let her go to Grandpa Liu's house to play again!
Xiao Qinxi quickly shook her head and hid behind Qin Shengsheng, her voice weak but firm: "Chaochao doesn't have any infectious diseases. He was with me all day yesterday, and I'm perfectly fine."
As she spoke, she patted her small chest.
“Everyone’s immune system is different. Besides, if he’s not sick, he should take off his mask.”
Bai Xiaoyu mocked.
Upon hearing this, Qin Shengsheng and Bai Xiaoyu both focused their attention on Xiao Yanchao's face.
But Xiao Yan shrank back, her fingertips tightening around the mask strap, and gently shook her head, her voice muffled through the fabric: "No..."
No one knew that he and Xiao Qinxi were twins. Although their features weren't exactly alike, they were strikingly similar as soon as he took off his mask.
His features were exactly like Xiao Qinxi's; anyone who saw them could immediately recognize that they were siblings by blood.
He didn't want to be discovered!
"See? I told you long ago, there was something wrong with this child!"
Bai Xiaoyu seemed to have finally found solid evidence against Xiao Yanchao, her voice full of smugness as she relentlessly pursued him.
The surrounding murmurs grew louder. Several parents gathered closer, their eyes filled with suspicion, pointing unabashedly in the direction of Xiao Yanchao, whispering, "No wonder they won't let us pick it," and "Could she really have some kind of illness?"
"When did the kindergarten ever stipulate that masks cannot be worn in class? Chaochao has the right to wear a mask to school!"
Seeing Xiao Yanchao's head droop lower and lower, and her eyes reddening, the governor's anger surged instantly, and he couldn't help but raise his voice to retort.
"You old fool! Of course you'll say that because you're protecting your own kids!"
Bai Xiaoyu seemed to have been hit where it hurt, her voice suddenly rising several decibels as she shrieked, "You care about your child, but what about our child? What if he gets infected?"
These words seemed to ignite a fuse, and several parents who were already harboring doubts immediately chimed in: "That's right, we can't just protect one person!"
"We have to think about all the children!" "Either make him take off his mask to prove it, or don't let him come to school!"
"For the sake of all the children in the kindergarten, I'm going to take off his mask today!"
Before Bai Xiaoyu finished speaking, she rushed forward, her diamond-encrusted nails gleaming coldly under the light, and reached out to pull off Xiao Yanchao's mask.
She used all her strength in that grab; if it had landed on the child's face, it would have at least left a bloody mark, and at worst, it would have injured the skin and flesh.
At this critical moment, a figure suddenly stood in front of Xiao Yanchao—it was the governor.
Bai Xiaoyu couldn't stop in time and grabbed the governor's face with a fierce hand, not only tearing off his mask but also leaving a red mark on his cheek with her sharp nails.
The moment the pain struck, the governor didn't flinch. Relying solely on instinct, he grabbed Bai Xiaoyu's wrist with his other hand, a movement so fast it was almost invisible to the naked eye.
He applied slight pressure with his knuckles, and Bai Xiaoyu cried out in pain. Struggling, she looked up and saw the other person's face. Her pupils contracted sharply, and the fierce look on her face was instantly replaced by terror.
If it wasn't the old man who brought this impoverished student here, how could he possibly be the governor!
Could it be that they just look somewhat similar?
But the next moment Bai Xiaoyu immediately rejected her own idea, because the aura emanating from the other party was absolutely unmistakable!
She accidentally injured the governor!
Most of the people around looked blank, and even Qin Shengsheng stared at the person in front of her in surprise, not knowing his identity.
Qin Shengsheng had spent a lot of time with Bai Xiaoyu over the past few years and knew that this woman was notoriously snobbish and opportunistic, always looking down on the powerful and fawning over the weak. She thought that this old man was going to be in big trouble today.
Unexpectedly, Bai Xiaoyu actually gave in!
Could it be that Xiaoxi's friends and family members have some special identities?
Qin Shengsheng was filled with confusion.
It's no wonder Qin Shengsheng didn't recognize the governor. Since taking office, the governor's health has been poor, and in recent years, Si Chu has almost always attended important state visits and public events on his behalf. Very few people actually know him.
“Zhou…” Bai Xiaoyu’s voice suddenly trembled.
She had served as a receptionist at the governor's inauguration ceremony and had seen the governor from afar.
The face that appeared in her memory instantly froze her in place.
Her previous arrogance had vanished, leaving only barely concealed awe and panic.
"Apologize to Chaochao." The governor's voice was as cold as ice, directly interrupting her, his sharp gaze fixed on her.
As he finished speaking, he subconsciously glanced in the direction Xiao Yan was looking, a barely perceptible unease flashing in his eyes.
This child's temperament is just like his mother, Yan Lan.
He dared not think too deeply about it, fearing that once his identity was known to his child, Chaochao would gradually distance herself from him, just like Yan Lan had done back then.
"I'm sorry!" Bai Xiaoyu's voice trembled noticeably, her palms were covered in cold sweat, and she wished she could slap herself on the spot.
How could she be so blind!
This child in front of me is hardly an ordinary impoverished student.
Even the governor personally escorted him to school; such a status was unimaginable!
The more she thought about it, the more flustered she became. Her back was soaked with cold sweat as she hoped the other person would forgive her rudeness.
