"Honey, tell us what happened." Qin Man was beside herself with worry. It was all she could do not to march outside and beat up her daughter's bully.
Yao Yuan reached out and stroked Yao Ran's cheek.
"Ranran, you've just finished the national exams, and your results were pretty good, weren't they? Why are you in such a state now? Come on, tell Daddy what's wrong."
For some reason, the words he had said to give her comfort only ended up fueling Yao Ran's tears.
Qin Man looked helpless as she rubbed the girl's back.
She knew that her daughter wouldn't weep this much if she hadn't been hurt badly. Someone must have targeted her on purpose.
"Dad," Yao Ran sobbed. "Mom…" Her lips were trembling now, and her eyes had grown puffy.
"Here, sit on the sofa and talk to Mommy. Stop crying now. Our dear Ranran is the strongest girl I know."
Yao Yuan sighed and watched his wife pull their daughter over to the sofa.
