A resident on the ground floor of an apartment complex found an unconscious little girl on the awning outside their home and immediately called the police. The police took her to the hospital, where an examination revealed multiple injuries caused by violence. After waking, the girl said that her biological mother, Yi Chengfang, had beaten her repeatedly, starved her, and locked her inside the house. This time, her mother had kept her locked up for three days, so she tried to escape through a window and accidentally fell.
The police took Yi Chengfang, an English teacher at White Swan Education, away from her classroom on suspicion of child abuse.
Parents were immediately outraged and rushed to confront the school. Wang Zhao, White Swan’s legal counsel, stepped in to resolve the dispute as part of his duties, but he never expected the parents to reject the school’s attempts to settle the matter with a public apology and tuition refunds. They demanded answers: How could a woman who abused her own daughter become a tutor? Had any of the other teachers committed crimes? Had the school turned a blind eye? Some even suspected their own children had been abused at school.
The conflict escalated, the relevant authorities launched an investigation, and White Swan’s market reputation plummeted overnight.
Beautiful and touching
