He went to university accompanied by friends The school was not very far from his home and he was not close to his parents He had never been a father, so he didn't quite knohat it felt like so say goodbye to your child

What a weird emotion

Here at the Jiao fawith some other kids and their parents to her school They didn't need to check the classroom list Mama Jiao told them ahead of time

One of the parents who had a bit of power had talked to the school and had all the kids fro Middle school kids were young and impulsive, who kneould happen It was best if they stuck together They could go hoether this way

Jiao Yuan and the kids were pleased with this They all decided to eat at the school cafe for lunch Mama Jiao was busy since it was the start of the tero home at lunchtime anymore She let the kids eat at the teacher's cafeteria where the food was better

Youzi had skipped a year and was now in fourth grade She kneo kids in her class, Xie Xin and Yue Lisha from the western quarters The tere the class monitor and prefect They knew Youzi as well, so Papa Jiao stopped worrying she would be bullied because she was younger

At noon, the bell rang at the elementary school

Jiao Wei stood at the door looking for Youzi

He came to pick up Youzi every day to have lunch at his fah it was farther from campus compared to some other restaurants, there were plenty of potential custo and they hired someone from back home to help out Jiao Wei tried to help when he had time but his mother wouldn't let him

Papa Jiao and Youzi were going to eat at the cafeteria but Jiao Wei's parents reasoned it was better if they ate at the restaurant The cafeteria was too crowded and homemade food was always better Papa Jiao wanted to pay thereed to accept a small amount Whenever Papa Jiao and Youzi went over, the size of the dishes was always larger than usual and the oil used was the good stuff too

Papa Jiao was busy these days, so it was up to Jiao Wei to pick up Youzi

Youzi expressed that she didn't need picking up since she knew the way and was in fourth grade, but Papa Jiao was still worried At the start of the school year, there were all sorts of people in the area Pick-pockets were nothing nehat if there were child traffickers as well?

Jiao Wei wasthese days and his Mandarin also improved Many around him had accents and this made him relax School was still a relatively simple place compared to the outside world Sometimes people who knew Youzi would talk to him, he always answered with a smile

As he aiting, he heard a sound on the fence Even without looking, he kneas the Jiao family's precious cat

The first tiot the time and was late Jiao Wei was ready to leave when he found Youzi but she wouldn't walk She was kicking pebbles while looking around It was only when he asked her did she say she wouldn't leave until she saw the cat

Jiao Wei looked up at the black cat He was now used to the cat's unnatural behavio

r and somewhat understood why the Jiao Family spoiled it Jiao Yuan had told his it did seemed impossible for a cat Jiao Wei still didn't understand why the Jiao family saw it as another kid Noa cat was, it was still a cat

Zheng Tan found Youzi and jumped off the fence He waited for her to coo to Jiao Wei's family restaurant to eat

There was a sinal owner used it to pile supplies Jiao Wei's parents had cleared it out and made it into a small bedroom where they could rest when there weren't customers There was a small table in the room like the one in Jiao Yuan's bedroom Papa Jiao and Youzi normally ate in that rooeable in Septe, they could eat quite comfortably

Jiao Wei's parents were used to how Papa Jiao treated Zheng Tan and gave hiht a bowl for Zheng Tan to use here
