Pampered By All In Different Planes

Afterward, Su Zhiruan spoke with the female class teacher about other matters.

In the original plot, the protagonist still harbored a glimmer of hope for the family, so she went back and told Ning Fu and Su Qin about the situation. Su Qin was busy with work and, on top of that, was estranged from his daughter, so he left the matter entirely in Ning Fu's hands to deal with. Ning Fu went to Su Zhiruan's school, which resulted in the protagonist losing her guaranteed admission spot.

But now, with Su Zhiruan taking the protagonist's place, she certainly wouldn't foolishly go back and tell Ning Fu everything as it was—not unless she wanted to make things harder for herself.

Su Zhiruan said goodbye to the teacher before exiting the office and quietly closing the door behind her.

She had a lot on her mind.

It seemed that the first order of business was to hire a pair to act as her parents to negotiate the transfer matters regarding her guaranteed admission.

At the very least, she couldn't let Ning Fu and Su Qin find out about this news, or all her efforts would be in vain.

Ning Fu had always been leisurely, so it was essential that she find something for Ning Fu to do to keep her too busy to pay attention to herself, and the appearance of the mistress was her best breakthrough.

The entire day's classes were calm and uneventful. Ever since Su Zhiruan slapped those two people, the rest didn't dare openly offend her. Even if there were still some who, not knowing the full story, wanted to tease or insult her, they would be quickly stopped by the classmates from Grade 12 Class 1, who whispered to them about today's incident. Suddenly, within just one day, the story about Su Zhiruan had spread throughout the school, and anyone who wanted to bully her no longer dared to make a move.

These were still students, after all, each of them acutely aware of their own limits. Normally, it was one thing to vent their pent-up emotions in a crowd, but now that Su Zhiruan had awakened, if anyone dared to provoke her, they would be the fool, a loss without gain. It would only provide others a chance to laugh at them. As the saying goes, "the leading bird gets shot," and everyone was no fool—they all understood the pros and cons of the situation for themselves.

Su Zhiruan had a very peaceful day. The teachers, seeing such a scene, didn't say anything either. They were quite satisfied internally as the bad atmosphere had dissipated quite a bit.

At 6 PM, Su Qin's secretary was already waiting at the school gate to take Su Zhiruan home. When her classmates came out and saw the secretary waiting in the luxury car for Su Zhiruan, they exchanged knowing glances, understanding what this meant.

The Su Zhiruan of the past always went to school by herself, but today she had a driver and was riding in a luxury car. It appeared that the Su family's attention to her had suddenly increased. They tapered off their ambitions, determined never to bully her again.

Even those from families of lesser status than the Su family, who had previously only acted as followers of the young masters and mistresses, mixing in with the crowd, now even wanted to apologize to Su Zhiruan to prevent her from revisiting past grievances and causing them trouble.

"Young Miss, please get in the car. Mr. Su sent me to pick you up and take you home," the secretary said respectfully as he opened the car door for Su Zhiruan, and after she got in, he closed the door with equal respect, "Shall I take you straight home?"

"Yes, take me home. By the way, is Dad still very busy today?" Su Zhiruan casually asked, remembering her stepfather Su Qin.

The secretary, naturally aware of what had happened today, hemmed and hawed before finally saying, "Madam went to see Mr. Su today. They probably have some urgent matters to attend to, which is why Mr. Su couldn't come to pick you up. I will take you home."

"She went to look for my dad? What about Secretary Zhu?"

Su Zhiruan raised an eyebrow; she already had an idea of what was going on.

If Ning Fu went to see Su Qin proactively, there could only be one possibility: Su Qin's affair with Zhu Manqing had been exposed.

"Secretary Zhu wasn't with Mr. Su today," the secretary replied, glancing in the rearview mirror at the well-behaved Su Zhiruan sitting in the back. He didn't know how to explain this complicated relationship; he couldn't just directly tell the Young Miss that her father had an affair with Secretary Zhu.

Su Zhiruan nodded, seeing the secretary's uncomfortable expression. She didn't ask any more questions, mainly because she had already guessed the development and outcome of the situation.

This morning, when she made the phone call, Su Qin and Zhu Manqing were still sleeping together. Now, Ning Fu had come knocking, and the secretary was beating around the bush, unwilling to say anything. That left only one possibility: Ning Fu had discovered the truth about the affair and had gone to confront Su Qin in person.
