Qu Xian and Qu Sheng said in unison, "They provoked us first!"
Qu Xian couldn't hold himself back and started crying. "They threw copper coins at us and insisted on forcing us to smile. We weren't willing, but they refused to let go. That's why I attacked first."
Qu Lianghua frowned and looked at the little radish-head. He did not expect his two sons to have a deep friendship with these children, but he could not allow them to bully his son.
Qu Lianghua tried to sound calm. "Why are you doing this?"
Selling a smile was an extremely bad insult to scholars.
The little children looked at each other without saying a word. They raised their chins and looked unyielding.
Mr. Liu said angrily, "You guys provoked them for no reason and bullied your classmates, yet you're unrepentant. Qinghe Academy can't tolerate students like you who have bad morals."
