Not Going to School 1

Feng Tianyi found the empress and Xiao Bao in a conundrum. Neither of them wanted to back down, their eyes narrowing at each other. He wasn't sure if he should intervene or not. He'd been very careful not to overrule Tang Moyu whenever it came to disciplining her little buns.

"You've been stalling this for too long, my little prince. You know you and Little Star eventually need to go back to school. You can't stay here forever, troubling your Daddy Ji everyday."

"No!" The little man of the house refused, shutting his mother's request down. "Not going to school."

Tang Moyu sighed dejectedly and pitched the bridge of her nose. She failed… for the umpteenth time this month. Her efforts to convince Xiao Bao were futile. If it was only Little Star, she would have easily coaxed her daughter to agree, but with Xiao Bao around, her daughter chose to listen to her twin brother instead, much to Tang Moyu's dismay.

These two… they were really partners in crime. If she couldn't convince her son then Little Star wouldn't agree too.

"Calm down, Moyu." Feng Tianyi gave her a pity look. She'd been trying hard to convince the little buns, but Xiao Bao had stood his ground firmly and denied her.

"Alright, I give up. I don't know what to say to convince them anymore." She let out a long sigh and threw her hands in the air as her little buns left the porch to find their missing dog in the garden.

Feng Tianyi sighed as well.

"Why don't you let me talk to him? Perhaps Baobao will listen to my words." He offered.

"I'm not sure, Tianyi." Tang Moyu pursed her lips. "Do you think it's because other children used to bully them in their old school?"

"They were what?!" The devil blinked at that. The thought of their little buns being looked down, no matter if they were his children or not, it left a bad taste in his mouth.

"Yeah." The empress reaffirmed. "I received a call from their school administration informing me that Baobao got into a fistfight with a few older children. Can you believe it? My young son snapped and punched another kid right on his nose? "

When Tang Moyu received the phone call, she was in the middle of an important conference. She didn't think twice and had ditched the event in favor of driving to the school her little buns were attending.

Finding her little buns in trouble shocked her as she drove in fear and worry. Baobao and Little Star, as mischievous as they may be, they would never dare to hurt another person. Especially her young prince who liked peace and never bothered to care about what people said behind their backs.

The usually half hour drive to the school was cut short to only ten minutes, narrowly avoiding accident after accident, weaving dangerously between the cars on the freeway just to reach her destination as soon as possible.

When she arrived at the principal's office, her young son was sitting quietly, his head down, refusing to meet her gaze. Tang Moyu could tell that he was angry and his silence was keeping him from leaping from his seat to beat the hell out of the three older boys sitting across him.

"What's going on?" She asked when Little Star came rushing towards her and cried. Tang Moyu's eyes narrowing dangerously.

"What else but your wild and unruly son?! Why don't you see for yourself how violent your child could be?! This is the kind of child you would have when you don't have a husband to help you discipline them!" One of the mothers of the older kids barked at her.

Tang Moyu regarded the older woman before eyeing the boy who had a cotton stuffed on his nose, probably bleeding from Baobao's assault. She still couldn't believe that her Baobao had done something as terrible as this.

"You talk like this in front of your child? Did you gargle sewer water every morning? Your mouth stinks." The empress said nonchalantly. "He's the older one between them but why does he cry more like a baby than my son now?"

The boy was probably two or three years older than Xiao Bao and Little Star and Tang Moyu refused to believe that her children were 100% responsible for what had happened.

"What were the teacher's aides doing, letting the children fight like this?" She turned to face the principal, whose face blanched under the cold gaze of the empress.

"None of these would happen if someone did their job properly. I believe you weren't short of people. Is that what you've been claiming? I don't throw a hefty amount of money only to let some WILD and UNRULY children who were raised by monkeys bully my children."

The other parents gasped on the empress's bluntness while the principal couldn't contain her shock.

Tang Moyu didn't trust that she could be level headed when it comes to her little buns's welfare and safety. She surely didn't give a fuck on what these women gossip behind her back.

She strode towards her son and scooped him up. Tang Feiyu wrapped his small arms around her and buried his face in the crook of her neck. He slightly shivered in his mother's embrace, which Tang Moyu didn't fail to notice.

For her calm little prince to act like this? Just what kind of insult did these children throw to her little buns?

"Don't worry. My children wouldn't be returning to this school anymore. I've seen enough. I've heard enough." Tang Moyu said before storming out of the school, taking her little buns with her.

Since then, Xiao Bao and Little Star hadn't attended another school, no matter how much Tang Moyu tried to convince them. Xiao Bao was firm in his decision that it wasn't safe for him and Little Star, that they didn't need to attend school.
