Live Stream: Overly Pampered Education Creates Three Superstars in One Family

Chen Chu looked at the woman in front of him, who was spitting as she spoke and whose face was full of disappointment. His lips twitched almost imperceptibly, and a strong sense of speechlessness and absurdity welled up in his heart.

Faced with parents who had made belittling their own children a habit, even a topic of social conversation, Chen Chu was momentarily at a loss for words. He could only force out an awkward but polite smile, trying to defuse the suffocating atmosphere in the gentlest way possible.

"It's alright, parent, you're exaggerating."

Chen Chu tried his best to make his tone sound sincere. He bent down slightly, looked gently at the girl who kept her head down like a frightened fawn, and gently reached out to rub the girl's head.

"I think this child is quite smart."

Chen Chu's voice wasn't loud, but he deliberately made sure everyone around could hear him clearly, "Look at this little girl, how pretty and charming she is! Her eyes are so bright and clever. Parents should praise their children more often."

Regardless, giving more positive feedback is always a good idea. Kids become more confident and smarter the more you praise them.

Chen Chu thought his conciliatory praise would end the conversation...

however……

"Hahaha! Mr. Chen, you're quite the joker!"

Instead of taking the opportunity to back down, Zhou Liying burst into exaggerated laughter as if she had heard the funniest joke in the world. She mercilessly exposed Chen Chu's good intentions in public, "Impossible! Absolutely impossible! You have no idea, this brat is just naturally stupid! She completely inherited her good-for-nothing father's intelligence; her brain is full of mush! Don't let her decent appearance fool you; she struggles with simple addition and subtraction within ten! She's so old, and she can't do anything at home; she's incredibly dumb!"

These words came down like a barrage of bullets, each one like a poisoned needle, piercing the little girl named Wang Jiajia.

The little girl's shoulders, which had relaxed slightly when Chen Chu rubbed her head, instantly shrank back down, burying her head even lower.

Yang Yi, who had originally just been a bystander, couldn't stand it anymore.

She was naturally straightforward and intolerant of any wrongdoing, and now, looking at that pitiful little girl, her brows furrowed into a tight knot.

She took a step forward without any hesitation, staring directly at Zhou Liying, her tone filled with hostility.

"Ma'am, she's your own flesh and blood, your own child! How could you say such things about her in public?"

Yang Yi grew increasingly angry, pointing at Chen Chu: "Look at her, even as an outsider, Chen Chu is trying her best to praise your child and protect her self-esteem. As a mother, why don't you even believe in your own child? Why not only do you not praise her, but you also keep belittling her? Can't you be even a little bit nicer to your child?!"

Although Yang Yi's words were somewhat impulsive, they were nonetheless powerful and resounding.

The other parents who had initially gathered around because of the camera now also turned their attention to the argument.

Although no one spoke, the curious, scrutinizing, and even somewhat condemning gazes that converged from all directions still made the air tense.

Zhou Liying felt the gazes of those around her, and the humiliation of having her "motherly authority" questioned in public instantly ignited her anger.

Her face suddenly darkened, her eyebrows furrowed, and she bristled like a hen whose tail had been stepped on.

"What nonsense are you spouting?! How have I ever treated her badly?!"

Zhou Liying retorted loudly, her voice so shrill it almost pierced eardrums, "I feed her well, pay for her the most expensive tutoring classes, how am I not good to her? She's just naturally gloomy and doesn't like to talk! How can you blame me for that?!"

To prove her innocence, Zhou Liying suddenly turned her head, grabbed Wang Jiajia's slender wrist tightly, and roughly dragged her into the center of everyone's view.

"You tell me!" Zhou Liying glared down at her daughter, her eyes filled with undeniable pressure and threat. Her voice echoed across the edge of the playground. "Tell everyone loudly, how good are you to me?!"

This roar not only drew the attention of the surrounding parents, but also startled some children playing games in the distance, who stopped what they were doing and looked over in bewilderment.

For a moment, the air seemed to freeze.

Wang Jiajia's thin body trembled violently in the autumn wind.

Her mother forcibly dragged her into the spotlight, and she felt as if she had been stripped naked, exposed to countless unfamiliar and inquisitive eyes.

The gazes of her friends and the scrutiny of her parents were like invisible knives, slowly shattering the last vestiges of her self-esteem.

Her mouth was agape, her throat felt like it was stuffed with a waterlogged sponge, and she couldn't make a sound. Her mind went blank for a moment, choked by immense fear, like an ant unable to think in the face of a giant.

Under her mother's fierce, almost murderous gaze, and under that extremely cruel psychological pressure, Wang Jiajia nodded.

"No……"

The little girl's voice was extremely soft, barely audible, filled with heavy sobs and broken despair.

She stared intently at her toes and mechanically said, "Mom...Mom is very good to me..."

Hearing this satisfactory reply, Zhou Liying, like a victorious general, let out a triumphant snort. She suddenly turned her head, staring at Yang Yi like an enraged mother leopard, unleashing her full power.

"Did you hear that?! She herself said I'm good!"

Zhou Liying pointed at Yang Yi's nose and started yelling, "Are you out of your mind? Why are you meddling in other people's business! I'm here asking Mr. Chen about education, who do you think you are, barging in and making a fuss? Are you trying to show off?!"

Yang Yi has a fiery temper, and she couldn't stand such humiliation. Looking at Zhou Liying's shameless face, which was turning black into white and using the child as a shield, she was extremely unhappy and immediately retorted without holding back.

"Someone like you doesn't deserve to be a mother, and you're even less suited to speak!"

Yang Yi's mouth was like a poisoned blade. "Instead of having such a foul mouth that spews filth everywhere, you'd be better off being mute. That way, you could be kinder to the world and to your daughter!"

"What did you say?!"

Zhou Liying instantly flew into a rage, her eyes turning red, her reason completely consumed by anger.

She pointed at Yang Yi's nose and unleashed a torrent of extremely foul language: "You shameless bastard! You dare curse me?! You deserve a beating!"

Before she could finish speaking, Zhou Liying suddenly raised her arms and lunged at Yang Yi's face with bared teeth and claws.

Yang Yi was stunned by the sudden barrage of foul language. She never expected to encounter such an extreme person in a high-end kindergarten, who would resort to shrewish insults and even physical violence at the slightest disagreement.

But she wasn't one to be trifled with either; her inherent fierceness made her instinctively want to raise her hand and fight back.

Just as a full-blown brawl between the women was about to unfold on the kindergarten playground, Chen Chu, who was standing to the side, reacted quickly.

"That's enough!"

Chen Chu shouted sharply. His large hand suddenly reached out and grabbed Yang Yi's raised wrist like an iron clamp. At the same time, he used his tall body to block Yang Yi and Zhou Liying, forcefully separating the two.

Just as tensions were reaching a critical point, Qiu Tian, ​​the kindergarten director who had been directing operations in the center of the field, finally rushed over with two burly security guards.

"Stop! All of you, stop!"

Qiu Tian, ​​as expected of someone who had seen it all, quickly squeezed into the crowd, pulled the two apart completely, her face extremely ugly, her voice carrying an undeniable authority.

"Two parents! This is a kindergarten, not a lawless zone! Please be mindful of your words and actions! If you insist on making a scene or fighting here, then I'm sorry, but to protect the safety of the children present, I have no choice but to call the police immediately!"

Despite being stopped, Zhou Liying refused to back down, relying on her status as a "victim" to shout loudly and occupy the moral high ground.

"Call the police! Call the police right now! Do you think I'm afraid of her?! I was speaking to Mr. Chen politely just now, and this crazy woman suddenly came over and started pointing fingers at me and meddling! Don't you think she's mentally unstable? Even if the police come and pull up the surveillance footage, I'll still be in the right, I haven't done anything wrong!"

Her voice was incredibly loud, sharp like fingernails scratching a blackboard, making the ears of those around her ring.

Qiu Tian's brows furrowed tightly into a "川" shape as she sharply interrupted Zhou Liying's tantrum.

"Stop making so much noise! ​​Look around, you've already frightened the children! If you dare to shout again, I'll have security escort you out and take you straight to the police station!"

Zhou Liying was intimidated by Qiu Tian's imposing manner. Although she still held her head high, she was ultimately afraid of the humiliation of being taken away by the police, so she reluctantly shut her mouth.

Having subdued Zhou Liying, Qiu Tian turned to Yang Yi with an extremely serious expression, her gaze filled with inquiry and questioning: "Parent, what exactly happened just now? Is it really as she says, that you interrupted and started the trouble first?"

Yang Yi took a deep breath, her chest heaving violently with anger.

She opened her mouth, instinctively wanting to explain that she was standing up for that poor little girl.

But as she spoke, her reason returned, and she sadly realized that, looking at the cause of the matter, it was indeed she who couldn't help herself and actively interfered in other people's "family affairs."

In this society, domestic violence and psychological abuse, once disguised as a "parent-child relationship," always make outsiders' intervention seem illegitimate.

Yang Yi gritted her teeth, suddenly feeling powerless. She knew that if she continued to resist, it would only make the situation more awkward and might even cause trouble for Chen Chu.

"Yes." Yang Yi suppressed the anger and frustration in her heart, nodded frankly, and admitted, "It was my fault, I interrupted first."

She turned her head, looking at Zhou Liying with icy eyes, took a deep breath, and said with extreme reluctance but also extreme decisiveness, "I'm sorry, parent. I acted impulsively just now. I shouldn't have meddled."

Zhou Liying, like a fighting rooster that had won the final victory, snorted arrogantly and disdainfully, not even glancing at Yang Yi.

The farce ended hastily in this way, which seemed like a reconciliation but was actually extremely frustrating.

As the crowd gradually dispersed, the parents continued to whisper among themselves.

Chen Chu stood quietly in place, his deep gaze sweeping over the crowd, staring intently at Wang Jiajia's back as her mother forcibly dragged her away.

His eyes gradually lost focus.

Just a moment ago, in that instant when the little girl was forced to lie in public and say "my mother is very good to me," Chen Chu clearly saw how the light in her eyes was completely extinguished.

That look in his eyes was empty, numb, and filled with boundless fear.

It's the despair of having your clothes stripped off and your self-esteem brutally crushed in front of the whole world by the person you trust and rely on most.

Chen Chu felt as if a huge lead stone was pressing on his chest, an indescribable, extremely heavy feeling of suffocation gripping his heart tightly.

He sighed. Why let someone like that become a mother?

"Hey! What are you spacing out for?"

Yang Yi walked up to Chen Chu without him noticing, and waved her slender, fair hand vigorously in front of his unfocused eyes.

Chen Chu snapped back to reality. He blinked, quickly concealing the heavy, unyielding gloom in his eyes.

He looked at Yang Yi in front of him. This woman had just been called a "stinky bastard" and almost got into a fight, but now she was acting as if nothing had happened, her face had returned to that carefree and nonchalant look, and she was even curiously sizing him up.

Chen Chu gave a wry smile, his tone slightly teasing: "Ms. Yang, you've got quite the nerve. You were just arguing with someone and even apologized, and now you're acting like nothing happened?"

Yang Yi shrugged nonchalantly and replied confidently, "What's there to agonize over? Arguing with her is her problem—it's her being unreasonable, not mine. Since the fault isn't mine, why should I waste my energy and engage in self-reflection over someone else's mistake?"

She raised an eyebrow, her gaze sharp as she stared at Chen Chu: "But you, what were you staring at so intently at that girl's back just now? You were practically mesmerized."

Chen Chu paused for a moment.

His Adam's apple bobbed up and down, as if a thousand words were stuck in his chest.

But after glancing at the camera next to him, still flashing its red light and faithfully recording everything, he ultimately swallowed back those overly sharp and heavy words.

After all, this is a live stream with millions of viewers, and some of the cruel truths involving psychological trauma to minors are not suitable to be revealed to everyone in such a bloody way at this time.

He waved his hand casually, adopting a relaxed tone, and skillfully changed the subject: "It's nothing. I was just silently marveling to myself, who would have thought that someone as delicate as you could be so formidable? If Principal Qiu had arrived a moment later, were you really planning to start a full-blown brawl in the kindergarten?"

Upon hearing this, Yang Yi pouted, feeling wronged. "How dare you say that! I was the one who suffered just now! I was acting bravely and doing what was right, and that crazy woman berated me mercilessly. In the end, I even had to apologize to her. I'm more wronged than Dou E!"

Chen Chu crossed his arms and mercilessly exposed her: "Knowing full well that you'll suffer if you get involved in this kind of 'family matter,' you still dare to bite the bullet and argue. That just shows how stubborn you are."

"Nonsense!" Yang Yi rolled her eyes with an extremely elegant expression. "Before we started arguing, how was I supposed to know that woman would be so fierce when she went crazy? I only joined in because I didn't know I'd be at a disadvantage! If I had known she was an unreasonable shrew, I would have dragged you along with me!"

Seeing Yang Yi's self-righteous and feisty demeanor, Chen Chu couldn't help but shake his head, a bitter smile creeping onto his lips.

Although this woman acts impulsively and without considering the consequences, in that cold atmosphere just now, she was able to stand up for a little girl she didn't know. This sense of righteousness is indeed much stronger than that of many adults who stand by and watch coldly.

……

at the same time.

In the live-streaming room of "Effective Parenting," a war without gunpowder is brewing fiercely.

Viewers witnessed the entire dramatic argument between Yang Yi and Zhou Liying, and the live stream chat exploded with excitement.

The internet has always been a place where people love to stir things up. It's as if people can't survive without fighting. They quickly and automatically split into two distinct camps, and started frantically outputting messages to their screens and attacking each other with their keyboards.

Those who supported Yang Yi were the first to launch an attack, with the screen filled with a dense barrage of comments.

[Holy crap! This is unbelievable! How can there be such a disgusting mother in the world? Talking to her own child like that? Did she just eat shit? Her mouth is spewing filth!]

[I'm so angry! Why would she so loudly and viciously belittle her child in public? How could someone like that be a mother? She's definitely out of her mind!]

When that little girl lowered her head and said, "My mom is so good to me," I couldn't hold back my tears. This isn't education; it's blatant emotional abuse! She ruined that child's life!

Are you keyboard warriors upstairs sick? It's a mother disciplining her child; even if she spoke a little harshly, it's their family matter. Why are you all dragging this into online bullying? Did I offend you?

[Exactly! What do you mean by offending you? Young people these days are so sensitive. What's wrong with saying a few words? Didn't we get scolded like that by our parents when we were kids? And we're still doing fine, aren't we? Besides, it was clearly that woman named Yang Yi who started the argument first, she's such a busybody!]

[666, so in your eyes, standing up for what's right is considered meddling? Yang Yi was just speaking out for justice! What normal parent would constantly belittle their child as a good-for-nothing in front of outsiders? This isn't discipline, it's venting emotions!]

The comments section was buzzing with heated debate, and the buzz kept rising.

Just when both sides were deadlocked and neither was willing to give in, the hardest-working person in the live stream...

No matter when, as long as there is controversy or buzz, Zhao Shuilan always manages to appear precisely in the live stream, trying to gain attention.

She sat in front of her computer and cleared her throat.

Everyone, please calm down and don't overreact. As a mother, I want to say a few fair words.

The parent named Zhou Liying did use some sharp and even inappropriate language.

However, we cannot just look at the surface; we must see the essence behind her behavior.

Essentially, her actions stemmed from extreme anxiety and worry about her child's future; she was frustrated and disappointed in him. Her agitation was also driven by a desire to ask Mr. Chen Chu how to better connect with her child and how to help him become a better person.

Zhao Shuilan then posed a counter-question.

Do you think that a mother's incorrect expression due to anxiety is truly an unforgivable mistake?

We, as bystanders, are perhaps being too harsh on this anxious parent...

I hope everyone can be more understanding and tolerant.
