"What’s wrong with Ruirui?"
Shang Wenyao closed the light curtain in front of her, looked up, and asked with concern.
Lin Chen threw himself onto the sofa and stretched comfortably.
"Nothing major, just some school bullying, got into a fight, and they called in parents. It’s not a big deal."
Nalan Wushuang smiled and said, "Crown Middle School is a noble school. The students there come from wealthy families, and anyone daring to pull something like this likely has some background, right?"
Lin Chen nodded: "Yes, the Zhang family, one of the Upper Twelve Gates of Imperial Star Thirty-six Elite Families, indeed has a significant background."
Nalan Wushuang frowned and asked, "How was it resolved?"
Lin Chen recounted the events: "Ruirui could have completely taken down the opponent. She said she was afraid she couldn’t control her strength and might kill someone. But I think perhaps she hoped someone would stand up for her. This child has a complex inner world."
Shang Wenyao nodded in understanding: "Although she comes from a noble background, it’s unfortunate that she’s too unique. Even though her father loves her, he can’t be present in her life like an ordinary parent."
"Her mother and father love each other truly, but for her, the family is incomplete. Fatherly love has been quite absent from her life since childhood."
Nalan Wushuang nodded in agreement and said, "Yes, no matter how powerful or noble a father is, if he can’t express it or be present in his child’s life, it probably makes her even more upset."
"Kids are mature these days. How could she not understand that her mother is technically a mistress?"
"A mature perspective might not care as much, with power and money being more important, but young boys and girls think a lot and might feel inferior because of it."
"This time she called you over, surely to have you back her up, but I think more so to show others that someone is protecting her too."
"Simply put, she called you not because she couldn’t win or truly needed help, but because she needed you to appear before the other students, to announce to others that she too is protected."
Shang Wenyao chuckled lightly, "A Master is also like a father."
Lin Chen said with a laugh, "That’s probably the reasoning. This girl has a lot on her mind. Earlier, when she was kidnapped and I went to rescue her, others were thrilled to see me, but she was calm, not the slightest bit surprised, even some hidden disappointment."
Lin Chen paused and smiled bitterly, "Perhaps the rescuer she most hoped for wasn’t any of us, but her incredibly powerful father."
Shang Wenyao sighed, "Indeed, her relationship with her father isn’t good. If she were in danger and her father came to rescue her in person, the relationship between her parents could heal significantly, but unfortunately..."
Lin Chen nodded, sighed, "Indeed, it was certainly a great opportunity to mend their relationship, but his identity is too sensitive..."
Nalan Wushuang smiled, "Even the most impartial judge can’t resolve family matters. To the outside world, he is the Almighty First, but at home, he is just a father, a husband. As for the role of husband, Fang Min made her choice, and she can accept it. But for Ruirui, she has no choice. To her, she is an illegitimate child, and her father can only love her in secret, never openly."
"Girls are naturally meticulous and sensitive, it’s normal for her to have more thoughts and issues."
"I think, today when you went to back her up, she must have been very happy, perhaps in the future she will be more cheerful..."
