Chapter 364 - What A Noble Status (2/2)
”Let's go in, Rainy. It's almost time for class.” The teacher said gently to Rainy. Rainy nodded and followed the teacher in. Upon seeing her daughter enter, Xia Ruoxin turned around.
Her heart was at ease leaving Rainy there. She should be going back now. Yet, unbeknownst to her, a car stopped by just as she left; and a middle-aged couple walked out.
They were Li Manni's parents.
”Mr. Li, Mrs. Li. How are you?” The director hurried out and bowed. They were big shots in this kindergarten, and they couldn't afford to offend them.
Mrs. Li harrumphed and raised her chin condescendingly. Of course, since she needed not to pay attention to others. She just needed to care about herself. Her husband was the CEO of a company, and her daughter was the wife of the CEO of the Chu Enterprise. No one other than her could be so supercilious.
”Please, enter. The children are awaiting you.” The director really felt like his back was going to break from bending. These rich people were really too hard to please. Li Xian finally stepped into the kindergarten with his dignified leg.
They sat on top while the children sat below obediently.
Mrs. Li scanned the children below her profusely. Even though her social and economic status was so high, she had a deep regret. It seemed impossible for her to have a grandson. She hadn't found any woman ideal enough for her son, and the baby that was supposed to have been delivered was now gone. She, like the Chu couple, was waiting anxiously for her daughter to get pregnant with a grandchild again, and then they would be free of worries.
Thinking of her unfortunate grandchild made her depressed. The child was already there but was gone all of a sudden. She was unwilling, so unwilling that her heart started to ache, and so she decided to sponsor this kindergarten. She would come over to look at the kids if she had nothing to do, although they were all someone else's children.
”She is really good-looking.” Mrs. Li's eyes widened slightly. The child who was sitting primly and properly caught her eyes from the moment she walked in. It was a little girl who was indeed pretty, with huge eyes, a pointed chin, and babyish pink cheeks; but it was obvious she would be a beauty when she grew up.
”Oh, does Madam mean her, the child with the short hair?” The director asked promptly.
”Yes, her.” Mrs. Li's gaze was fixed on the child. She was really pretty, even prettier than her daughter when she was young.
”Right, she's the prettiest girl in our kindergarten,” The director said as he glanced meaningfully at the teacher beside them. The teacher caught his meaning and walked over in front of the child and squatted down.
”Rainy, the granny over there likes you. Remember to be polite later.” She rubbed Rainy's head. Her mind was at ease with Rainy, for she was not just the cutest child, but also a very obedient child. She never caused trouble and was also very sensible and easier to look after than most kids.
”Okay.” Rainy nodded and let the teacher take her hand and lead her forward.
She looked at Mrs. Li with wide eyes, not looking at anyone else. She stared intently at Mrs. Li, almost unblinkingly. Such eyes from such a young child made Mrs. Li slightly uncomfortable.
