Chapter 29: Kneeling Down

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

In front of the most expensive car stood a row of people in black suits. Each of them were of similar height and stature, so they stood in harmony. This row of people held flowers, lights, ice cream, cakes, and drinks.

In front of this row of people stood a man who was also wearing a suit and holding flowers. However, this man’s figure was not as good as the other men. Not only was he average in size, but he also had a beer belly full of fat. The buttons of his shirt were about to burst.

Looking at this large-scale situation, I thought that the school was going to welcome some big shots.

Kris and the others saw that I didn’t speak for a long time and thought that I was shocked by this scene. The little girl with a ponytail behind Kris immediately jumped out and said, “Hmph, unworldly girl, you must be shocked! This was specially prepared by Kris’ father to welcome her back from school. You just wait and see. Since you dared to bully Kris, you’ll get what you deserve.” After saying that, she even made a face at me and stuck out her tongue.

Another person echoed, “That’s right, that’s right. If you’re willing to kneel down to Kris now, slap yourself ten times, and say that you’ve learned your mistake, our beautiful, noble, and kind princess Kris might forgive you.” After saying that, the three of them laughed together.

“I was wondering who was being so exaggerated and shallow. So it’s your father.” I pretended to be thinking, and said sarcastically. “I’m not surprised about that. As the saying goes, ‘The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree’. No wonder you grew up being so unreasonable.”

In fact, I wasn’t shocked by his actions at all. That’s why I dared to watch for so long. I watched carefully for so long just to look for Steve in the group of adults who were picking up their children. However, I could not find him.

I smiled wryly and thought to myself, Steve’s office must have been so busy that he had forgotten to pick me up from school. That was understandable.

I started walking toward the door. Kris saw that I wasn’t afraid, so she started to mock me. Her anger flared, and she quickly caught up with me. She pushed me aside and left the school in front of me.

When Kris’s father saw his precious daughter come out, he immediately came in front of her and half-knelt down to offer her the flowers he had prepared. The row of people behind also half-knelt and shouted in unison, “Welcome home, little princess Kris. You’ve worked hard, little princess Kris! Welcome home, little princess Kris. You’ve worked hard, little princess!”

I stood at the back and watched the funny scene of a bunch of grown men half-kneeling to welcome a little girl. If it weren’t for the modern cars in the background, I really would have suspected that this was a feudal society of some sort, with a bad habit of kneeling to greet people.

Kris took her father’s flowers. When she saw her backer, her face immediately returned to its usual high and mighty self. In her father’s arms, Kris pointed down at me and said, “Daddy, this is the little bitch who bullied me today. It’s her who made me unable to take my nap today.”

Kris’ father walked quickly in front of me. He wasn’t considered tall among adults, but he was still very tall in front of my five-year-old height.

Kris’ father didn’t know what was going on. He didn’t ask what happened and started lecturing me. “Whose child are you? How can you be so insensible and dare to bully my precious daughter? Immediately kneel down and apologize to Kris!”

After hearing this, I couldn’t help but smile mockingly. Who was this family? They were always on the verge of kneeling down. Not only that, but they were also overbearing and unreasonable. As an adult, how could they dare to threaten a five-year-old girl?

Faced with Kris’ father’s overwhelming power, I didn’t show any signs of panic. Instead, I raised my head and looked directly into his eyes. There wasn’t the slightest bit of fear in my clear and bright eyes. I said in a neither servile nor overbearing manner, “I have never bullied your daughter, so it is impossible for me to apologize to her..”
