Chapter 661  : Bright Red Mark

Of course, Master Zhang didn’t believe her.

If Qin Man really cared about Yao Ran, she wouldn’t have to ask someone else to gather the medicine for her.

If she really loved her child, then she would have personally taken it upon herself to take care of her. She wouldn’t ask someone else to do the job for her.

In fact…

Although Yao Ran had defended her mother, he saw the way Qin Manhad slapped her. He saw the way she had fallen down to the side, hitting the car seat.

The bright red mark on her face was far too obvious to be a soft slap on the cheek.

After hearing Yao Ran’s words, Qin Man felt more at ease.

It seemed that she didn’t hit her that hard at all.

Master Zhang held his breath.

They were still Yao Ran’s parents. It wasn’t any of his business for him to be critiquing their parenting styles.

However, now, it seemed as if he was able to know more about Yao Ran’s position in her family.

He wasn’t too surprised. This kind of thing was far too common within large families. At this point, he didn’t know how many times he had seen parents being abusive toward their children.

However, why would this kind of thing happen to someone like Yao Ran?

She was their only daughter, not some illegitimate daughter found on the streets. Shouldn’t she be pampered by them?

Thinking of this, Master Zhang couldn’t help but purse his lips.

It seemed that he should investigate this matter even further.

While he had a rough understanding of the Yao Family previously, he didn’t investigate it. Now that he was seeing this, he couldn’t help but feel as if he was missing something.

Upon seeing Master Zhang’s thoughtful expression, Yao Ran’s lips curled into a faint smile.

Of course, she knew that Master Zhang would think something else as soon as he saw the injury on her cheek.

She had wanted Master Zhang to know that there was more. to the picture, that she had reasons as to why she wanted to conceal the fact that she had lost.

Maybe then, he’d pity her.

Maybe then, he’d be able to help her.

Perhaps with his help, she’d be able to break free from Qin Man’s control. Maybe then, she would no longer have to live in fear of being recognized as the Yao Family’s adopted daughter.

He could back her.

“Let’s go, I’ll seek justice for you!”

Yao Ran lowered her head. “Forget it, teacher,” she said softly. “I don’t want you to fight with the other judges just because of my small matter. It’s just that I wasn’t strong enough of a performer. That’s why I had been disqualified.”

She took a deep breath and added, “I still have time to prepare for the future assessment. I’m sure I can pass that if I worked hard enough.”

Seeing her so sad, Master Zhang could only sigh.

Master Zhang knew that she didn’t want him to get into conflict with the Music Association because of this matter.

Yao Ran was already devastated, yet she still looked after the others. She really endured all of this, only to receive such unfair treatment by the judges.

He’d want to seek justice for her even more.

Even if he couldn’t get what he wanted, he’d have to let the people of the Music Association know that there was someone out there who was backing her up.

He wouldn’t allow his student to be bullied like this.

“Even if you don’t want to seek justice, I’ll help you. You don’t even have to say anything anymore. I’ve already made up my mind.”

After saying this, Master Zhang directly pulled her out of the car.

Yao Ran almost fell down as he did so.

Her eyes widened.

She never thought that he’d seek justice for her right then and now.

Originally, she was supposed to guilt him and make him pity her even more. She didn’t expect that he’d really confront the people who had disqualified her.
