Li Xue came to meet the principal. She was furious inside but here anger didn’t show on the surface. Since she was under the school premises, she can’t behave outrageously. And being outrageous wasn’t in her character.

She always believed that there were no problems in the world that can’t be solved with a calm composure.

With her thoughts in her mind, she knocked at the principal’s office door then opening it slightly she asked in a polite tone, “Mam, may I come in?”

The principal looked up from the computer and then nodded, “Yes. You are?”

“Mam, I am Li Wei’s mother. Her class teacher has asked me to meet you. She said there was something you needed to discuss with me.”

The principal remembered the topic from before and nodded. Yes, I remember. Please have a seat.”

Li Xue proceeded to have a seat across the principal on the other side of the desk. “I have got some complaints from the parents of other students from her class. Even before her teacher has said she was quite a stubborn child. So I needed to discuss these things with you. You know we are a reputed school and the students who comes here should be of the level to match its reputation”

The principal said her words without thinking how mean it sounded. She didn’t know that before coming to the office, Li Xue had already heard the story that had happened. So still being on her previous plans, the principal pushed all the blame on Li Wei.

Li Xue looked at the principal and felt her heart raging in fury. She knew what her daughter was but here this person was deliberately making it look like she was someone incompetent for this school.

“Sorry Mam, but are you implying that my daughter doesn’t fit the reputation of your prestigious school?” she asked with a tone very calm and poised but one can feel the fierceness she was holding in her heart by coming in contact with her eyes.

“There is nothing like that. We have always taken every child to be God’s child. How can we call them incompetent?” the principal said, still with her head held high. There wasn’t even a minutest percentage of guilt in her eyes. She was here pushing unreasonable blames on a little child and still had the guts to keep her head high.

This world has truly lost its morals!

“You have your thoughts so high and moral but going against your moral, you are blaming a child for something she hasn’t done. Do you think that your words are going with your actions?” Li Xue said without thinking much about it.

She no longer cared for the consequences. Since her daughter did nothing wrong, there was no way she was going to let anyone criticize her.

“Are you saying that we are blaming your child for something she had not done. Don’t you know how naught she is. Last week her class teacher came with a complaint about her?”, the principal said, folding her arms around her chest in arrogance.

Li Xue nearly scoffed looking at the principal’s arrogant attitude. “I never said my child isn’t naught. In fact, I will say she is too much naughty for her age. But her incompetence is something I will never accept. I know her the best. In your this reputed school there is no student of her age category that could surpass her”

She knew her daughter best and has seen how her brain functions. She was really intelligent for her age. Li Xue didn’t know whether it was quality gifted by God or has come from the genes inside her but she knew one thing very particularly. If her daughter didn’t deserve to study in this school because of her competencies, then no one else can deserve it.

“May be her class teacher would have come to you complaining about her but it would be for her habit of asking questions. And if I have understood things in a right way then I am sure, the parents sent their children to school to learn new things. According to that my daughter hasn’t done anything wrong. If your teachers can’t even handle them then I doubt if this school is really fitted for my daughter?”, her words were quite straightforward and were directly hitting the bullseye.

“You…you can’t blame us like that”, the principal tried to butt in but she herself knew every word uttered by Li Xue was right. Children were sent to school to learn new things and also to satiate their curious brains. It was the duty of the teachers and the school to help them out.

“Let me complete my first Mam. I have not finished yet” Li Xue said, silencing the principal in the midst of her words. Though air in the room has made her look domineering but her voice and tone, never once left its softness and politeness. Maybe it was her righteous standing that was making her look so domineering.

“About the incident today, I don’t know why you are blaming Li Wei when she is clearly not at fault. I know her and also know what I have taught her. She will never say anyone bad, I have made her learn that. But at the same time I have also taught her to never accept the wrong thing”, she said looking into the eyes of the principal. She was very confident in her daughter.

“This is not done, Ms. Li Xue. You can’t question our authorities like this. You are offending us saying we are deliberately cornering your daughter in this incident without her fault. We have a prestigious reputation built for ages, you can’t tarnish it like that”, the principal got agitated when she felt all her plans have gone in the wrong way.

“Reputation? I don’t think I can ever put my hands on that. Earlier you said it right, my daughter isn’t fit for here. But it’s not because of her competency but because I don’t want her to learn the things you are teaching her. She deserves something much better than this”, saying this she stood up.

“Huh! There is no school better than us in this city. Do you think you find any school better than us? This is a small city and hardly has any good schools. Can you really find one better than us here?” The principal asked in a mocking tone. She was too confident and can never accept that any parent will dare to kick the opportunity of having their child study there.
