Jasmine sat obediently in the back seat. After Qin Sisi brought her back to the Zhou family villa yesterday, no one had taken care of her. She didn't have any of the brand-name clothes or beautiful bags she had imagined. Zhao Jiali also arranged her to live in the servants' room, which was a basement that was dark and full of miscellaneous items.

She gritted her teeth and endured the grievance, and it took her a long time to clean up the place. She put a few small tables together as a bed and spent the night feeling so aggrieved.

She regretted it all night, regretting that she didn't choose Xu Yansang. Xu Yansang would definitely not let her live in such a place. She didn't even have dinner.

However, unexpectedly, this morning, this glamorous man came in front of her and introduced himself as Zhou Muchuan's assistant, who would be responsible for her food, clothing, housing and transportation in the Zhou family in the future.

Zhao Jiali had no choice but to arrange a bedroom for her on the second floor. She went to see it. Although the bedroom was called a bedroom, it was actually very large. It not only had an independent bathroom and washroom, but also a living room and study.

It’s enough for a whole house!

Special Assistant Wu returned her a card, saying it was a black card with no limit on the amount, and told her to buy whatever she wanted.

In addition, she also has driver privileges in this house, so she can just contact the driver directly when she goes out.

It all seemed like a dream.

Jasmine put her hands in her pockets, tightly holding the black card. When she came from the welfare home, she thought she would have fine clothes and delicious food, so she didn't bring anything from the welfare home. At this moment, she was still wearing the clothes she wore yesterday, her only good clothes, which Qin Sisi bought for her before.

Thinking of Qin Sisi, she felt full of resentment again. It was all that woman's fault. Otherwise, she wouldn't have suffered that night. She thought she was some great person, but she didn't expect that she lived worse than a dog in the Zhou family.

Fortunately, Uncle Zhou was reliable, otherwise she would have been killed by that woman.

Jasmine was thinking that after registering at school, she would go to the mall and do some shopping to buy all the pretty clothes. She would change into a new dress every day and become the prettiest little princess in the school.

Thinking this way, I soon arrived at school.

Special Assistant Wu said that the school Uncle Zhou arranged for him had the best educational quality in North City. There should have been a written test and interview process, but she skipped it and went directly to see the principal.

That’s the power of privilege.

Jasmine got out of the car and followed Special Assistant Wu inside. She looked at everything in the school with curiosity and admiration in her big eyes. The clean campus and the tall teaching buildings. She had never seen such a beautiful school before!

She didn't know that at this moment, because of her lack of knowledge, her body was slightly hunched. The new clothes that she was so proud of were just ordinary brand and ordinary style in the eyes of the city children. On the contrary, her messy hair did not match the clothes at all, making her look unsophisticated.

The way she looked around and looked like she had never seen the world before was just like Granny Liu when she visited the Grand View Garden for the first time.

They soon met the principal. As Special Assistant Wu was with them, the principal was a little surprised to see Jasmine's attire, but he did not make things difficult for her. He simply asked a few questions, assigned her to a class, and asked the head teacher to take her back.

Jasmine followed her head teacher into the beautiful classroom. The children in the class looked at her curiously. After a brief introduction, the head teacher asked her to sit in the back row.

Her deskmate was a cute little fat boy who was very popular in the class. He asked Jasmine curiously, "Did you transfer from the suburbs?"

There was no malice in her words, because her dress and temperament were incompatible with this school. This was the top elementary school in North City, and the children's knowledge was far higher than that of ordinary people, and their quality was even more so.

Just a friendly greeting.

Unexpectedly, Jasmine broke down her defenses and immediately acted like she was bullying other kids in the welfare home. She stood up abruptly, raised her hand and slapped the fat boy hard.

The teacher was writing on the blackboard. The class was quiet, but the sound of the slap was particularly obvious. Everyone looked over in surprise, and the teacher also frowned.

He asked sternly, "Jasmine, what's going on? Why did you beat up your classmates?"

Jasmine said arrogantly, "Teacher, he scolded me."

The little fat boy was stunned at first, but he finally reacted and said aggrievedly, "I didn't, I just said hello to her!"

Jasmine glared at him, "You said I was a country bumpkin!"

The little fat boy felt very wronged, "I really didn't, I just asked if you were a transfer student from a suburban school, how could it be as harsh as you said?"

Jasmine didn't listen at all, and said viciously, "Don't think I don't know what you're thinking. Do you think I don't have anyone to back me up? I'm telling you, I'm from the Zhou family, the North City Zhou family, you know that, right? If you dare to bully me, I'll make you get out of school!"

The little fat boy looked at her blankly.

The teacher shouted, "Jasmine, go to my office and wait for me."

The students and teachers in this school are all rich or noble. Who can enter such a school without a good family background? But I have never seen anyone like Jasmine, who always talks about my family to threaten others.

She's just a first grader, Jasmine's problem is very serious!

Jasmine was not convinced by her teacher at all and said arrogantly, "I won't go. I haven't done anything wrong. Why should I leave? If you have the guts, go find the Zhou family!"

She thought the teacher wouldn't dare to do so, but unexpectedly the teacher immediately contacted the principal and asked for the contact information of Jasmine's parents.

Coincidentally, Special Assistant Wu came this time with Zhou Muchuan's sincerity. After Jasmine entered the class, he did not leave, but was discussing the naming of the next scholarship with the principal.

This primary school is full of hidden talents. Being able to name the scholarship will give us more opportunities to be noticed, whether it is at parent-teacher meetings or commendation meetings held by the school.

To put it bluntly, the Zhou family is a wealthy family, and the Zhou Group is a leader in the business world, but above the Zhou family, there are wealthy families among wealthy families, and the best among the best. In addition, there is also the political world.

This is a win-win opportunity.

It was at this time that the principal received the call.

In just a dozen seconds, his expression changed, he stood up, and said in a deep voice, "Bring both students to me!"

Then, he hung up the phone and looked at Special Assistant Wu with a gloomy expression, "Moli beat up classmates in class, talked back to the teacher, and arrogantly said that she had the Zhou family's support."

Special Assistant Wu's face suddenly turned ugly, and he quickly said, "Principal, there must be some misunderstanding. Jasmine is not that kind of child."

The principal did not express his opinion, but just said, "Call him over and ask him first."

Jasmine and the little fat boy were taken to the principal's office by the teacher.

Jasmine didn't know that as soon as they left the classroom, other children gathered together to defend the little fat boy. The little fat boy was very popular among his classmates. Jasmine slapped the little fat boy and was so arrogant. Everyone disliked her and agreed that no one would play with her in the future.

It was only her first day at school, but she was already excluded without her knowledge.

Facing the principal, Jasmine's arrogance was finally less intense, but she still insisted that the fat boy had scolded her.

The fat boy denied it again and again. Jasmine looked at Special Assistant Wu with red eyes, looking like she was being bullied but didn't dare to say anything.

Special Assistant Wu was also in a dilemma. In the current situation, Jasmine would most likely suffer a loss. After all, she was Mr. Zhou's adopted daughter. After much hesitation, he finally gave Zhou Muchuan a call.

However, Zhou Muchuan did not take it seriously and let him handle it fully.

Special Assistant Wu considered the meaning of "full authority to handle" and thought it should be that he must protect Jasmine no matter what means he uses.

Assistant Wu thought about this and looked at the principal. Just as he was about to speak, he saw the principal looking at him in embarrassment, "Um, Assistant Wu, how about letting Jasmine apologize and just let this matter go?"

Jasmine bit her lip and said stubbornly, "I didn't make any mistakes, why do you want me to apologize?"

Special Assistant Wu also meant this. Regardless of whether it was Jasmine's fault or not, she must be protected. This is for President Zhou's face and also for the face of the Zhou Group.

Seeing that he didn't understand his hint, the principal shook his head helplessly and simply laid his cards on the table. He glanced at the fat boy and said to Special Assistant Wu, "This kid's surname is Dou, and his family is from the financial department."

Something flashed through Special Assistant Wu's mind.

There is only one senior official with the surname Dou in the Ministry of Finance and Commerce, and that is Minister Dou Yukun who just took office this year.

The fat boy that Jasmine bullied is Minister Dou’s son?

Special Assistant Wu suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. The Finance and Economics Department is a department that manages all commercial activities in the country.

Not to mention the distant future, the two plots of land that the Zhou Group wants to approve this year have the final say from the Finance and Economics Department.

He caught a glimpse of the little fat boy making a phone call, angry and a little aggrieved, "Dad, the school wants to invite parents... No, it's not me, I didn't get into trouble... Okay, then come quickly."

The principal sighed softly, then looked at Special Assistant Wu, "I think you'd better invite Mr. Zhou over."

The Minister of Finance and Economics came in person, so it was indeed true that only Zhou Muchuan could negotiate in person, as he, as an assistant, was not qualified.

Special Assistant Wu could only call Zhou Muchuan again and briefly report the situation. Zhou Muchuan was on the other end of the phone and was shocked to hear that this matter had alarmed the Financial Intelligence Department. He immediately dropped the work at hand and rushed over.

Minister Dou and Zhou Muchuan arrived almost at the same time. They met in the corridor, talked for a few words, and walked into the office one after the other.

Zhou Muchuan had already understood the whole story on the way here. Not to mention that it was Jasmine who started the trouble this time, even if Jasmine was really bullied, he would not support her. The Zhou family's joystick is not that hard.

He looked at Jasmine and said without hesitation, "Jasmine, apologize to your classmates."

Jasmine was unwilling, "Uncle Zhou, I..."

But when she looked up, she couldn't help but shudder at Zhou Muchuan's gloomy gaze. She looked at the fat boy, bit her lip, and apologized reluctantly, "I'm sorry."

Fatty Dou was not the type to embarrass others. Since Jasmine gave in first, Fatty waved his hand generously, "It's okay, I forgive you!"

Minister Dou saw this and extended his hand to Zhou Muchuan, smiling kindly, "Children will encounter problems when they are together, and most of them can be solved by themselves. Children have their own way of socializing, so let's just forget about this matter?"

Zhou Muchuan said quickly, "You and the young master are broad-minded. Our Jasmine still has a lot to learn. Don't worry, I will definitely educate her well, and this kind of thing will never happen again."

Minister Dou smiled and waved his hand, "Don't embarrass the child, it's not a big deal."

Zhou Muchuan wanted to take the opportunity to get to know Minister Dou better, but Minister Dou looked simple and easy-going, but he was very careful with his words and didn't respond to a single word he said about business matters.

Just as Minister Dou was about to leave, the head teacher's phone rang. She picked it up and her face changed after a moment. "Qi Meng didn't come to school. She was gone since this morning. Can't you find her?"

Qi Meng is a student in her class. It is already morning school time. Qi Meng's parents are waiting outside to pick her up, but they didn't see Qi Meng go out, so they called her.

But she was also confused. Qi Meng didn't come this morning. She thought Qi Meng was sick and had planned to call her at noon to ask about it.

As a result, he was delayed by the matter of Jasmine and the little fat boy.

The head teacher hesitated for a moment while holding the phone, and said, "Why don't you come over to see me? I'm in the principal's office."

The matter of Jasmine and the fat boy has not been dealt with yet, at least their parents have no intention of ending it. In order not to delay things, the head teacher had to call Qi Meng's parents over first.

Minister Dou was concerned about the safety of the missing children, so he stayed. Seeing that he stayed, Zhou Muchuan did not leave either.

When Xu Yansang pushed the door open and saw Zhou Muchuan and Moli, she paused. Although she was surprised that they were here, the most important thing to her at the moment was Qi Meng's safety, so she glanced past them without stopping for a moment and walked straight to the head teacher and the principal.

Straight to the point, he asked, "I'm sure I saw Qi Meng enter the school with my own eyes this morning, but you didn't see her all morning?"

She originally wanted to come over during lunch break to check on Qi Meng's emotional state, but after waiting at the door for a long time, she didn't see Qi Meng.

She had no choice but to call the class teacher, but the teacher said that Qi Meng did not come to school in the morning.

She was worried that something had happened to Jasmine, so she hurried over to confirm the situation with the head teacher.

The head teacher frowned and said, "I am very sure that Qi Meng did not come to the classroom."

The fat boy next to them had a strange expression on his face when he heard what they said. He glanced at Jasmine subconsciously, then quickly looked away and lowered his head, not knowing what he was thinking.

Xu Yansang asked, "Can I check the surveillance?"

The head teacher looked at the principal.

The principal nodded.

The surveillance footage quickly revealed that after Qi Meng entered the school in the morning, for some unknown reason, he walked out of the school gate and walked into a blind spot of the surveillance camera. He has never appeared since then.

Xu Yansang looked unhappy. What happened to Qi Meng? Why did she suddenly go back after entering the school? Who called her back?

Zhou Muchuan, who was standing by, had been looking at her until this moment when he asked, "Is Qi Meng your newly adopted child?"

Xu Yansang did not answer his question, but said to the head teacher, "I need to call the police."
