C57 (2/2)

”Sleep really fast.” Xia Lan laughed and leaned over to help him tuck him in.

After closing up on the afternoon of the third day, Xia Lan directly went to pick him up from Xiao Ze's school. Because Xiao Ze had continuously come to her school to marry and sleep two nights in a row, he reckoned that she would come today as well.

She thought, since he will come, then she won't bother the Madam Gu anymore and will just directly bring him back.

After waiting for less than ten minutes, Xiao Ze walked out of the campus happily. One of the students behind him was Xiao Pang.

Xiao Ze threw himself into Xia Lan's embrace, and Xia Lan whispered: ”Has Xiao Pang been bullying you recently?”

”No, he's afraid of me.” Xiao Ze had a proud look on his face, and looked extremely arrogant.

”You can't bully your classmates, or else you will become the same as Xiao Pang.” Xia Lan took this opportunity to patiently teach them.

Xiao Ze thought for a while, as if he understood something, he tilted his head and asked: ”That isn't good, right?”

”Right, not good.”

”Well, I don't want to be a nuisance like him. I want to be a likeable child.” Xiao Ze smiled as he rubbed his head full of curly hair.

Xia Lan looked at him and realised that his hair had grown a bit: ”Xiao Ze, your hair is long, do you want to go and cut it?”

”It shouldn't be too long. There won't be any scrolls after I cut it.” Xiao Ze was a little reluctant. Back then, when he took his grandma to bring him back, his father was so angry that he almost died. He even ordered him to do it.

His father had always disliked his curly hair.

”But it's too long now, even to the point of blocking my eyes. Straight hair, clean and handsome. ” Xia Lan tried his best to persuade her.

”Isn't he handsome now?” Xiao Ze asked in exasperation.

”It's cute now.” Xia Lan laughed and coaxed him.

”Then if I cut off my hair, it would be unlovable.” Xiao Ze felt very conflicted. He wanted to be perfect.

Xia Lan laughed, such a young child yet she has such high self-esteem, she thought, it must have something to do with Gu Xi Jue's education.

”We, Xiao Ze, are beautiful. We look at all kinds of hair. Xia Lan felt that she was about to succeed in persuading Xiao Ze.

”Really?” Xiao Ze asked somewhat unconfidently.

”Of course! Who see how we, Xiao Ze, do not praise you? ” Xia Lan was boasting just like that.

”What other requests do you have?” Xia Lan asked patiently.

”Um... When you finish cutting your hair, can you go and eat KFC? ” It wasn't easy for him to get rid of his father so he wouldn't be allowed to eat those food everyday.

”Alright, I'll treat it as a reward.” As soon as Xia Lan finished his promise, he immediately warned her: ”Don't let your father know.”

”Of course, this is a secret between us. We won't let him know.” Xiao Ze held onto his chubby face with both hands, looking extremely cute.
