Chapter 81: 80. Hello, Father-in-law and Mother-in-law (Please bookmark, please vote!)

Fuyuan Primary School, teachers' office.

Teacher Wu was leading Zhang Xiaotao toward the office; at the office door, Zhang Xiaotao suddenly asked, "Teacher, why didn't Qiqi come to class today? Is she sick?"

As he spoke, the little guy's face was full of worry.

However, upon hearing his words, Teacher Wu's face was full of strangeness; she did not answer Zhang Xiaotao's question, but instead led him into the office.

Inside the office, besides the teachers, there were three other people, one of whom was the Qiqi that Zhang Xiaotao had mentioned.

Seeing Qiqi, Zhang Xiaotao's little face was full of joy, "Qiqi, you're here." As he spoke, he even ran toward Qiqi.

Seeing him act this way, the couple beside Qiqi hurriedly shielded their daughter behind them, staring at Zhang Xiaotao with very angry eyes, though they did not make any extreme moves or say anything harsh.

"Ahem, Taotao, these two are Qiqi's parents. They came this time because they have some things they want to ask you, you..." Before Teacher Wu could finish her sentence, she was stunned by Zhang Xiaotao's next move.

Zhang Xiaotao bowed very obediently to Qiqi's parents, then loudly greeted them, "Hello, Father-in-law and Mother-in-law."

"Ahem, ahem, ahem."

"Pfft!"

The other teachers in the office were also instantly stunned by Zhang Xiaotao's words, each of them looking at Zhang Xiaotao with strange expressions.

Especially one young male teacher, whose gaze toward Zhang Xiaotao was even somewhat 'worshipful'.

Qiqi's parents were also stunned, but the next moment, they said somewhat exasperatedly, "Little guy, don't call us that."

"Don't be angry, parents. They are both still children, they don't know any better, they don't know any better." After Teacher Wu reacted, she hurriedly pacified Qiqi's parents.

After taking a deep breath, Qiqi's mother stopped looking at Zhang Xiaotao, fearing she wouldn't be able to hold back, "Teacher Wu, please invite Zhang Xiaotao's parents over. I would really like to see how they are teaching their child."

"Yes, yes, yes, I'll make the call right now." Teacher Wu also knew she couldn't handle this matter herself, so she agreed very readily.

Zhang Ran left the clubhouse at noon, but he kept a smile on his face as he left.

This time it could be considered a success; in fact, Ning Qing and those people weren't all swayed by Zhang Ran's words. A large part of the reason was that many of them were currently bored.

Now that there was such a matter, and it sounded quite interesting, plus with Zhang Ran acting as a safety net, it was quite nice to just treat it as playing around.

Just as Zhang Ran was preparing to take He Yong out for a good tour, a call came in. Seeing the caller ID, Zhang Ran hurriedly answered.

"Teacher Wu, hello."

"Are you Zhang Xiaotao's grandfather?" Earlier, Zhang Ran had changed the contact numbers for both Zhang Xiaotao and Susu at the school to his own, so he was the first person the teacher contacted.

"I am. Did Taotao cause trouble at school?" Zhang Ran asked somewhat nervously.

Hearing Zhang Ran's words, Teacher Wu on the other end seemed not to know how to start either. She paused before saying, "Well, don't worry, Zhang Xiaotao didn't cause any trouble, it's just that..."

"Teacher Wu, what exactly happened?" Hearing her words, Zhang Ran became even more anxious.

"Ahem, parent, don't be anxious. Student Zhang Xiaotao is perfectly fine, it's just that I can't explain the situation clearly in a moment. If you have time now, you should come to the school," Teacher Wu said.

Hanging up the phone, Zhang Ran hurriedly rushed to Zhang Xiaotao's school with He Yong.

Although Teacher Wu had repeatedly emphasized that it was nothing, Zhang Ran's heart could not calm down. Once he arrived at the school and confirmed his identity with the security guard, he ran over quickly.

He Yong stayed outside; if he went in, he could only stand there, and perhaps he would end up getting scolded along with them.

Besides, if Zhang Ran really got scolded and he happened to see it and couldn't help but laugh, that would be embarrassing.

Zhang Ran quickly found Teacher Wu's office, and immediately discovered Zhang Xiaotao standing in front of Teacher Wu, his little face looking very stubborn, as if he were quite unconvinced.

There were three other people in the office, one of whom was a little girl. This was Zhang Xiaotao's classmate, whom Zhang Ran had seen before; every time he picked up Zhang Xiaotao, he saw him standing beside this little girl.

The other two were likely the little girl's parents. The two were staring at Zhang Xiaotao with angry faces, especially the man, whose eyes looked like they were about to spit fire.

But what made Zhang Ran feel relieved was that, judging by Zhang Xiaotao's current state, this couple hadn't done anything extreme.

"Teacher Wu, I'm sorry, I've caused you trouble," Zhang Ran said apologetically.

Although Teacher Wu already knew Zhang Ran's true age, every time she saw him, she couldn't help but feel a bit of envy and jealousy.

"Mr. Zhang, it's fine, you should rest for a moment first." Seeing Zhang Ran panting heavily, Teacher Wu said hurriedly.

"You are Zhang Xiaotao's father, right?" Seeing Zhang Ran, the man immediately turned his angry gaze toward him.

Teacher Wu hurriedly explained, "Mr. Lin, Mr. Zhang is Taotao's grandfather. He is already over fifty this year, he just looks a bit younger."

Once these words were out, the two of them were stunned for a moment, but soon they didn't care about that matter anymore, staring at Zhang Ran and saying, "You... how do you discipline your... your child? At such a young age, not learning anything good?"

The man almost couldn't help but curse at first, but after looking at Zhang Xiaotao and his own daughter, he forcibly held it back.

Although Zhang Ran didn't understand the current situation, he knew that it seemed they were in the wrong.

"Well, I'm sorry, I don't know what the situation is yet. Can you tell me about it?" Zhang Ran said hurriedly.

At this moment, the most important thing was to clarify the matter first.

Just at this moment, Zhang Xiaotao ran over and grabbed Zhang Ran's pant leg, looking up with his little head and saying loudly, "Grandpa, Qiqi and I are truly in love. Can you please not break us up?"

"Ahem, ahem, ahem." Zhang Ran almost couldn't catch his breath.

Hearing Zhang Xiaotao's words, Qiqi's parents looked at him with even more anger; if it weren't for the fact that Zhang Xiaotao was so young, they wouldn't have been able to stop themselves from cursing out loud.

Zhang Ran was also very surprised, but at the same time, he couldn't help but be amused and almost laughed out loud; the little guy's words were truly too funny.

However, seeing the expressions of that couple, Zhang Ran still tactfully held it back.

"I'm sorry, let me ask about the situation first." Zhang Ran first apologized to the couple, then squatted down to look at Zhang Xiaotao, "Taotao, tell Grandpa, what exactly is going on?"

"It's just that I like Qiqi, and Qiqi likes me too, but Father-in-law and Mother-in-law want to break us up," Zhang Xiaotao said loudly.

"Ahem, ahem, ahem." Zhang Ran started coughing wildly again. He even called them Father-in-law and Mother-in-law?

"Little guy, don't call us that! Who is your Father-in-law and Mother-in-law?" Qiqi's father almost went crazy hearing this again.

At this moment, Teacher Wu was also holding back; she knew things couldn't go on like this, so she hurriedly said, "The three parents, please calm down first. Since you're here, we will handle this well. Being angry isn't good for anyone."
