"Brother!" Zhan Shiqing rushed to find Zhan Jinzhi during the break.
After the previous incident, Zhan Shiqing learned that someone at school had always bullied Zhan Jinzhi. She didn't understand that Zhan Jinzhi was deliberately being lenient, only thinking that the person was very powerful.
So, she took the initiative to ask to find Zhan Jinzhi during every break, and if similar incidents occurred again, she would help.
Although Zhan Jinzhi had told her many times that the matter was over, Zhan Shiqing insisted on continuing.
Ever since the incident with Lu Fang's family spread, the entire school regarded Zhan Jinzhi with a degree of apprehension. After all, the plight of the Lu family was a nightmare for anyone.
After Lu Fang was suspended, he simply applied for withdrawal, and no one heard from them again.
Some students even spread rumors that it was the Zhan family's influence that prevented Lu Fang from continuing his studies.
Zhan Jinzhi was shocked when he heard these rumors. Although it was satisfying, he had not intended for the other party to drop out of school.
He specifically asked Wei Yumeng about this matter.
"You said Lu Fang dropped out?" Wei Yumeng was a little surprised, but it didn't seem entirely unexpected. "He must have gone to another school with his father?"
"No... it wasn't Father who did it?" Zhan Jinzhi felt a bit guilty as he spoke.
Wei Yumeng was amused by Zhan Jinzhi's words. "I know you think your father is very powerful, but he can't interfere in some people's private matters."
Zhan Jinzhi breathed a sigh of relief.
"If your father did this, wouldn't you feel relieved? After all, it helped you vent your anger."
Zhan Jinzhi shook his head. "His previous mistakes were resolved at school. We have no other conflicts."
Seeing Zhan Jinzhi's seriousness, Wei Yumeng hugged him and laughed. "It seems you have a clear sense of right and wrong. You are indeed my son."
However, Zhan Shiqing didn't think so. The thought of Zhan Jinzhi being bullied made her want to transform into a demon and tear that person apart.
"Shiqing, I'm really fine now. It's been so long, you don't need to keep coming here."
Zhan Shiqing firmly shook her head. "No, I heard everything before. Brother had a conflict with that Lu Fang because of me, so this is all I can do. I also want to protect Brother."
Zhan Jinzhi sighed. With Zhan Shiqing saying that, he had no room to argue.
"However, if I protect Brother, shouldn't Brother thank me?" Zhan Shiqing smiled at Zhan Jinzhi.
Zhan Jinzhi said helplessly, "Okay, let's go buy some snacks."
"Brother is the best!" Zhan Shiqing said and walked out first.
Just as Zhan Jinzhi was about to follow, a classmate walked over. "Classmate Zhan, have you seen the class monitor?"
As Zhan Jinzhi was about to answer, he saw a hand emerge from around the corner of the stairs. He couldn't react any further and rushed towards Zhan Shiqing.
"Shiqing, watch out behind you!"
As expected, the owner of the hand hesitated for a moment, but he didn't delay. As Zhan Jinzhi embraced Zhan Shiqing, he pushed them both down the stairs.
"Brother!" Zhan Shiqing was protected in Zhan Jinzhi's arms. She only saw the world spinning, and Zhan Jinzhi did not let go of her until they landed.
"Brother! Brother, what's wrong with you?" Zhan Shiqing could feel that Zhan Jinzhi wasn't unable to let go of her, but that he had fainted from the fall, only remembering to protect her.
"Brother, I should be the one protecting you," Zhan Shiqing couldn't help but cry.
"Someone come quickly, two students have fallen down the stairs!"
Wei Yumeng rushed to the school after receiving the call.
Because Zhan Shiqing was well protected by Zhan Jinzhi, she only suffered minor injuries and had already been treated.
She saw Wei Yumeng and ran to hug her, crying. "Mom, it's my fault. Brother was protecting me, so..."
Wei Yumeng hugged her with concern. "It's okay, it's okay. Jinzhi will get better. Don't worry, tell me what happened."
Zhan Shiqing sobbed and wiped her tears. "I was just going to buy snacks with Brother. I was walking ahead, and Brother was behind. Then I don't know what happened, Brother told me to be careful, and then he hugged me, and we fell down the stairs."
Zhan Shiqing's description was very clear, and even Wei Yumeng immediately suspected that this was an intentional act.
The reason Zhan Jinzhi shouted "be careful" was because he saw someone trying to harm Zhan Shiqing, and then he rushed forward to protect her.
But now Zhan Jinzhi was in a coma in the hospital, and perhaps no one other than him had seen the perpetrator.
"Shiqing, were you really the only two of you there at the time?"
Zhan Shiqing tried hard to recall. "No, Brother was talking to a classmate at the time."
Wei Yumeng's eyes flashed. It seemed this person might be able to help them figure out what happened.
"Do you remember what he looked like?"
Zhan Shiqing nodded. "I remember. He should be Brother's classmate."
With that said, the school administrator, Zhan Shiqing, and Wei Yumeng walked into the classroom together.
"Everyone, please don't panic. Aunt Wei is just here to identify someone," the school administrator explained before allowing Wei Yumeng to enter the classroom.
Zhan Shiqing looked around the classroom and quickly found the person. "It's him."
The school administrator nodded. "You come out with us for a moment. The rest of you continue with your class."
The child seemed to have no idea what was going on, and the scene alone made him tremble with fear.
Wei Yumeng crouched down and said softly to the child, "Don't be afraid. I am Zhan Jinzhi's mother. I just want to ask you if you saw anything suspicious or anyone when you were talking to Jinzhi at the time?"
The child was terrified and couldn't speak for a long time, finally bursting into tears.
Wei Yumeng felt a bit helpless. She knew her actions might have been too impulsive. If this child had truly witnessed Zhan Jinzhi and Zhan Shiqing being pushed down, he would have been terrified.
"Yumeng." Zhan Mohan finally put down the matters in his hands and rushed over.
"Dad!" Zhan Shiqing ran over and hugged Zhan Mohan again, crying. Zhan Mohan simply picked her up.
The school administrator broke out in a cold sweat. Dealing with Wei Yumeng was one thing, but with this powerful figure arriving, he dared not offend him at all.
Indeed, he now felt as if Zhan Mohan was glaring at him.
Wei Yumeng told Zhan Mohan everything. Zhan Mohan then directly asked the administrator, "Are there any surveillance cameras in the hallway?"
