Female-dominated society: My wife is an incompetent wife

Chapter 59: Raising a Hand and Slapping

"Qingqing's dad, today is Pingping's birthday. I'm throwing a birthday party at the hotel and I'd like to invite everyone to come. Why don't you come too?"

At noon, Lin Yue arrived at the kindergarten and found Mo Xunhuan, inviting him to the party that evening.

"It's Pingping's birthday this afternoon!"

Mo Xunhuan looked surprised, then nodded in agreement, "Okay, I'll bring Qingqing with me then."

"Okay, I'll send you the address now."

After seeing Lin Yue off, Mo Xunhuan went to the principal's office and found Li Xin there as well, standing at the desk chatting with Lan Ruoxin, while Lan Ruoxin's face was full of impatience.

"Ruoxin, are you free this afternoon? I know a newly opened Western restaurant that's incredibly delicious. How about I treat you to lunch?"

Faced with the invitation, Lan Ruoxin refused without hesitation, saying in a cold tone, "Thank you, but no need. I have other things to do this afternoon."

"Are you busy this afternoon? Tomorrow or the day after is fine too."

"Sorry, I'm busy. Why don't you go with the other teachers? I think Ms. Liu is quite free!"

"Her? I don't want her. I just want to have a meal with you. What's wrong? Why are you always avoiding me?" Li Xin grabbed Lan Ruoxin's hand and started to act coquettishly.

Just then, the office door opened, and Mo Xunhuan saw what was happening.

Lan Ruoxin immediately stood up, pulled her hand away, and coldly rebuked, "Please show some respect, Teacher Li Xin!"

"How am I disrespecting you? Lan Ruoxin, I'm a man, and I've already lowered myself to pursue you like this, but you still won't agree. What do you mean by that?" Li Xin asked excitedly.

"It doesn't mean anything, I'm just indifferent. You're not my type," Lan Ruoxin said bluntly.

Upon hearing this, Li Xin's eyes widened, her cheeks puffing out in anger. "I'm not your type? Then tell me what kind you like, it's not him, is it?!"

As she spoke, Li Xin pointed to Mo Xunhuan at the door.

Lan Ruoxin neither admitted nor denied this, which was tantamount to admitting it.

Seeing that she didn't speak, Li Xin became furious, her face turning red. "Fine, fine, so you're admitting it. I really don't understand why you like him. What's so good about him? How is he better than me?"

"Every single point."

"What?"

"He's better than you in every way—more handsome, gentler, more capable, and far more outstanding. From head to toe, every part and every pore of his body is 1 times better than you. Now you understand, right?" Lan Ruoxin looked at Mo Xunhuan and said seriously.

"You...bastard!" Li Xin glared angrily, raised her hand and slapped Lan Ruoxin, then turned and left.

However, when he reached the doorway, Mo Xunhuan grabbed his wrist and pulled him back.

"What are you doing?" Li Xin asked irritably.

However, the next second, a loud slap was heard, followed by a burning pain on the cheek.

Li Xin covered her face with her hands, staring at Mo Xunhuan in disbelief, her mind blank.

"You...you actually dared to hit me?"

"So what if I hit you? I hit you because you're such a bad seed, a shameless bastard." Mo Xunhuan coldly cursed, raising his hand to slap the other person's other cheek, leaving bright red handprints on both sides.

"Ah!" Accompanied by the screeching of a groundhog, Li Xin pounced on Mo Xunhuan like a madwoman, but Mo Xunhuan easily dodged her, deliberately tripped her, and made her fall to the ground.

"Xunhuan!" Lan Ruoxin hurriedly stepped forward to stop Mo Xunhuan and reassured him, "It's not what you think. There's nothing between him and me."

"Do you think I hit him because of you?" Mo Xunhuan looked coldly at Lan Ruoxin.

"Oh, isn't that right?" Lan Ruoxin was completely unaware, looking utterly bewildered.

A disheveled Li Xin turned her head, her murderous gaze fixed on Mo Xunhuan. "You stinking cook, what are you being so arrogant about? Do you think I wouldn't dare touch you?"

"You don't dare to move? How could you not dare to move? Weren't those guys who bullied me yesterday the ones you sent? If someone hadn't saved me, I probably would have been beaten up by those female thugs."

"What? What happened yesterday? What exactly happened?" Upon hearing that Mo Xunhuan had almost been bullied, Lan Ruoxin's expression changed drastically, and she looked angrily at Li Xin.

Knowing she was in the wrong, Li Xin immediately felt guilty. She covered her face with one hand and stood up, staring at Mo Xunhuan with resentment. "I don't understand what you're saying. You can only blame your bad luck. It has nothing to do with me."

After saying that, Li Xin turned and left dejectedly.

Watching Li Xin leave, Lan Ruoxin hurriedly tried to rush forward to question her, but Mo Xunhuan grabbed her wrist.

Don't go.

"Why? I need to find out what happened," Lan Ruoxin said excitedly.

"It's no use asking. Do you think he'd admit it?" Mo Xunhuan shook his head, sat down on the sofa, and placed the lunchbox on the table.

"That seems to be true."

Lan Ruoxin closed and locked the door, then sat down beside Mo Xunhuan and asked with concern, "So what you said earlier was true? Did someone really try to bully you yesterday?"

"Yes, if you don't believe me, I have a video here, I'll show you and you'll see." With that, Mo Xunhuan took out his phone and opened the video that was filmed by Lin Yoona.

After watching the video, Lan Ruoxin's face flushed instantly. She clenched her fist and slammed it on the sofa in anger. "Dad, I was only gone for an afternoon! How dare these guys bully you?"

"Now do you believe me? Do you know why I was angry just now? It's one thing for them to bully me, but Qingqing was still there at the time. Can you imagine how much of an impact it would have had on Qingqing if no one had saved me and they had done those things to me in front of her?" Mo Xunhuan said coldly.

"These bastards deserve to die, they're all a bunch of damned beasts!" Lan Ruoxin cursed angrily, then stood up and was about to leave.

"Hey, what are you doing?" Mo Xunhuan hurriedly grabbed her arm.

"Of course we'll call the police! These guys have done so many terrible things to you, they should all be sent to jail and punished severely," Lan Ruoxin said excitedly.

Mo Xunhuan shook his head and smiled helplessly. "You're being too naive. Teaching them a lesson? These guys are all seasoned veterans, and besides, they didn't even succeed. At most, they'll be locked up for a few days. And Li Xin, he's the one who deserves the most punishment, but he stubbornly refuses to admit it. What can I do?"

Listening to Mo Xunhuan's complaints, Lan Ruoxin frowned, calmed down, and sat on the sofa.

"Yes, we should really think about it carefully. We can't just call the police so easily, otherwise these guys won't get much punishment. So... we still need her to handle this."
