Business Faltered

Zhouzhou looked at them blankly. The head teacher, feeling a bit troubled, pinched her brow and asked, "Caicai, did you sell milk to Pan Bin yesterday?"

Zhouzhou recalled and nodded, puzzled, "Yes, why?"

Her milk had not expired. Brother Dafu always said that earning money was important, but one must have a conscience, especially with food; one must never sell spoiled goods.

Mrs. Pan, however, was furious. "He's allergic to milk and broke out in a rash. He's in the hospital now, receiving an IV!"

"You wicked child!"

In her anger, Mrs. Pan spoke harshly and looked at Zhouzhou with disdain. Zhouzhou, never having encountered such a situation, stood frozen.

Qin Feng, Qin Nan, and Qin Bei immediately stepped forward to shield Zhouzhou. Huo Ji'an also held Zhouzhou, staring intently at Mrs. Pan, ready to prevent any physical altercation.

The teacher quickly intervened, "Please calm down. Caicai didn't know. This is a misunderstanding."
