Chapter 23.1 - Eager to Learn (2/2)

Standing next to the blue adult was a child in a pink skirt holding a flower, she had a necklace made with various unknown objects around her neck.

The lines of the drawings were immature and crooked. If you tell someone to identify it, they probably won’t be able to tell what it is. Still, the cute dumpling smiled so contentedly that it made it beautiful!

Teacher Wang: “Now is time for the second row to come on stage. YinYin, are you ready?”

YinYin stopped drawing, swelled her fat cheeks and then exhaled: “Yes!”

Today is their last day before summer vocation, so the children are about to say goodbye to eachother.

Mrs. Luo deliberately dressed up his child as a princess doll and promised the whole family would pick her up after school, even her silly father Luo Sheng, who was now a busy man!

Wearing a pink princess dress and a princess crown, she went to the podium while holding her paper.

Shi Yuan looked at her as a form of encouragement. The shy kid shook his fist, making a cheering gesture and sound.

Her cheeks went pink and she became lively again, she was a little shy.

The dumpling’s not nervous, just shy… But what the naive dumpling didn’t know was that, since the first semester was coming to an end, the kindergarten arranged a surprise for the kids and didn’t let they know.

The parents were watching this ‘last class’ by live broadcast through the classroom high-definition wireless camera, so they could participate and learn about their children’s inner thoughts and life in the kindergarten.

Most of the children didn’t recognize the cameras and thought nothing of it, and neither did Teacher Wang tell them about it.

The dreams of the several children made parents laugh and cry. The young children often had very unexpected ideas which made hard to keep up with their thoughts.

For example, one kid said that their dream is that their best friend, Xiao XiongXiong (a ragdoll) becomes a person so it can protect them, since their parents are busy making money and ignoring them!

In the parents meeting room where the parents are watching, that pair of parents were embarrassed. All other parents looked at them and from their faces they are thinking ‘are you even a parent?’

Another kid said that her biggest dream is to have endless cute skirts. Another one hopes that their mother’s headaches becomes better…

So far the most surprising one was a kid with an innocent face who said their biggest dream was that her stepmother and father died, because she hates them!

Her reason was because her father went crazy. He found another woman and divorced her mother and, after her mother moved out of the house, she changed from a spoiled princess to a poor girl. Her stepmother secretly bullied her and her father didn’t care about her at all.

This time, it was her mother who came to the parents meeting. Her father truly didn’t care, he called her mother to attend the meeting alone. The mother looked at the big screen in shock, specially at her innocent face.

Someone suggested it might be better if she took her child home.

The mother nodded with her eyes full of tears. During the divorce, thanks to her ex-husband temperament, she had no choice but to leave the kid with him. She wanted her daughter to live like a princess as well. She might have endured hardships with her father but, from now on, the woman decided she will take her child back no matter what costs!

That’s a difficult war she was buying. After the parents ‘meeting’ ended, a middle-aged man looked for her and offered her his business card. She told her that the Rockwell group would help her find a good lawyer.

That was everything about the case.

Three people from the Luo family came this time.

Mr. Luo’s legs were almost fully recovered, as long as he didn’t exercise hard he would be fine, walking was good.

There was a young man sitting next to Mr. Luo, leaning lazily on the chair. He stared at the cute princess on the screen, his deep eyes reflecting the young maiden.

The dumpling spread out her paper and began to narrate her dreams.

The cutie’s voice is a bit high and longing: “Hi everyone, I am YinYin.”

“My dream is to wear a necklace made with candy by my daddy and put on a beautiful skirt my daddy bought. I want to tell everyone he’s the best daddy in the world and that he’s very good. No one can bully him!”

Unexpectedly, that child’s dream was not to be with her dad forever, but to let emphasize over and over again that he is a nice man and that no one can badmouth him!

Everyone was silent. Guilt came suddenly and everyone wondered if she was often teased about her father being a bad person, which caused her to be over sensitive about that. They all hoped everyone could empathize with her and agree that her father was nice, that they wouldn’t bully him!

The children in class remembered the bad words spoken about YinYin’s father and immediately understood. They clapped and cheered, “YinYin, we support you!”

Teacher Wang also thought that. She couldn’t help but admire the cute kid. That man was very lucky to have such a caring daughter.

Mr and Mrs. Luo were too soft hearted to see that their cutie’s dream was related to family.
