She could not let Shen Zhihan get involved in this.

One of the female executives suddenly remembered. Wasn't this An'an's voice?

Everyone had a sudden realization. How could they have forgotten the fact that Shen Zhihan had a daughter?

The last time Shen Zhihan brought An'an to the company, all the female employees were overflowing with maternal love, eager to feed her all sorts of treats.

Shen Zhihan pressed answer, and the soft, sweet voice of An'an came from the other end of the phone: "Daddy~ I have something I need your help with. Can Daddy help me?"

The little one was quite polite. Forget helping; he would give his life to his precious daughter if she asked.

Oh, wait, no. He needed to live a good, long life. Otherwise, if anyone bullied his baby girl, who would protect her?

He wouldn't trust anyone else with the job; protecting her himself was the only way he could be completely at ease.

"Yes. Go ahead."

"Daddy, come to school. Xia Kexuan said I framed her. It was obviously she who hurt Little Green, and then she deliberately pretended that she was the one who rescued Little Green. She even harmed cats and dogs, and then she came to me asking to adopt a puppy. I would never give a puppy to someone like that! Hmph!"

An'an spoke clearly and logically, quickly explaining the whole sequence of events.

Xia Kexuan panicked the moment she heard An'an calling Shen Zhihan.

Wasn't she supposed to be getting on An'an's good side?

How on earth had she offended An'an?

She couldn't let Shen Zhihan get involved in this.

Xia Kexuan grabbed An'an's wrist, sobbing breathlessly, "An'an, I was wrong, don't call your dad. I admit it, it was my fault. It was me who hurt Little Green, it was me who harmed the cats and dogs, don't call your dad, it really was my fault, wuuu, I admit I was wrong, please don't call your dad."

Seeing Xia Kexuan crying almost to the point of passing out, Teacher Fangfang rebuked angrily, "Teacher Fan, are you just going to stand there and watch? Look at how terrified Kexuan has become! This is clearly a children's matter, why bring adults into it?"

An'an's wrist was grabbed very tightly by Xia Kexuan, causing her to frown. "Xia Kexuan, let go of me right now, you're hurting me."

However, Xia Kexuan only gripped tighter, wishing she had the strength of an ox so she could snap An'an's wrist right then and there.

The call had not been disconnected, and the situation at the school was clearly transmitted into Shen Zhihan's ears.

Shen Zhihan immediately stood up and walked out, instructing his assistant to prepare the car.

"Have someone pull the surveillance footage from three months ago along the route from the Xia family to Wen'an Kindergarten. Also, have someone secure the Xia family villa; once we pick up An'an, we're going straight to the Xia family villa."

Xia Kexuan? The youngest daughter of the Xia family? Overly clever, a prodigy?

Ha!

Shen Zhihan let out a cold laugh.

Originally, he didn't have much of an impression of this little girl.

After a few interactions, the way that little girl looked at him made him very uncomfortable. There was a clingy, sticky quality to it, a gaze that should not appear in the eyes of a young girl.

Before Shen Zhihan returned to the Shen family, because of his striking appearance, he had experienced those disgusting gazes at a very young age.

He knew what those people were thinking—they wanted to pin him beneath them, regardless of gender!

It was all sickening!

Xia Kexuan's crying made it look as though An'an had tortured a confession out of her, and because An'an brought up Shen Zhihan, Xia Kexuan was so terrified of the other party that she was forced to admit to something she hadn't done.

The commotion in Class 5.5 attracted the kindergarten's principal and director.

Principal Hu and Director Li both arrived. Seeing Xia Kexuan crying so bitterly, Principal Hu stepped forward to comfort her, "Xuanxuan, why are you crying so hard? Your face is all messy with tears. If your eyes swell up like goldfish bubbles, you won't be pretty anymore. Stop crying now."

Seeing Principal Hu comforting Xia Kexuan, the other children assumed Xia Kexuan was in the right, and they began talking all at once, recounting the events.

Principal Hu looked at An'an.

An'an was standing there looking indignant. She wasn't crying, her eyes weren't red, and she looked very composed.

Qu Bowen and Tian Wenhan blindly supported An'an: "An'an didn't do anything wrong! An'an didn't even hit Xia Kexuan, but Xia Kexuan is crying so hard. Do they really think whoever cries the loudest is right?"

Gao Feifei, a senior short-video enthusiast, once again came out with a startling remark: "Whoever cries is right! Whoever is weak has justice! Isn't that how short dramas always play out? In the fake-versus-real-heiress white-lotus tropes, the fake heiress white lotus just has to cry and then turn things around with false accusations, and everyone immediately sides with the fake heiress, blindly attacking the real heiress without asking about right and wrong."

An'an pricked up her ears, listening with exceptional focus.

White lotus? Real and fake heiress? Green tea sisters?

Hmm, that sounded interesting. She should look into it later—just ask Grandpa Butler.

If the occasion hadn't been so inappropriate, Fan Lina would have started applauding Gao Feifei.

Look at that, this little girl had already learned two idioms: turning things around with false accusations, and right and wrong.

Whenever Feifei's mother said Gao Feifei was uneducated, she was going to step up and clear Gao Feifei's name.

Hearing Gao Feifei's words, Xia Kexuan wished she could strangle this little chubby girl!

Principal Hu looked at An'an with an equally gentle tone.

As a senior child educator and psychological expert, all the children liked her very much.

"Little An'an, can you take responsibility for what you just said?"

"Yes, I can! If I can't, my daddy can take responsibility for it too!"

Shen Zhihan had said that if she couldn't resolve a problem outside, she should just bring him up.

An'an felt extremely confident.

Xia Kexuan choked back a sob.

She used to have family members to back her up, but now...

The Ding family might be more powerful than the Xia family, but they still couldn't surpass the Shen family.

Damned An'an, is she really four years old? Aren't you ashamed, bringing in adults to fight your battles?

"An'an, this is where you're wrong. How can you call your parents over a little kids' quarrel?" Another child who was close to Xia Kexuan spoke up in her defense.

An'an wore a look of utter innocence and replied with utmost seriousness: "No way! Who is quarreling with her? I'm not quarreling with Xia Kexuan! I am trying to get justice for Little Green, and also finding Little Green's owner back. The cats and dogs harmed by Xia Kexuan also need someone to speak up for them. Xia Kexuan did something wrong and refuses to admit it. Since she did it, am I not even allowed to talk about it?"

An'an thought for a moment and added, "Even though I'm a child, I know that when you see an injustice on the road, you must draw your sword to help! If we all stay silent when we see unjust things, wouldn't the buried truth remain hidden in the dark forever?"

Though An'an's phrasing was childish, her words struck like heavy hammers against the heart of every teacher present.

Everyone fell silent.

What kind of place was a kindergarten? It was a place for children's mental enlightenment, a place where their values were formed, and the happiest place in their childhood.

If today's matter wasn't handled properly, no one knew what unpredictable impact it might have on the future of the children present.

Principal Hu squatted down and looked at An'an, "An'an, how do you think this should be handled?"

A kindergarten principal actually asking for advice from a child with such humility—

The children were all shocked.

So adults could be this humble too!

An'an replied calmly, "Just let the truth be seen!"
