367 Son, Ism Your Father 21 (2/2)
…
Standing outside the door, An Youqing could not tolerate what he was hearing any further. He took out the spare key and opened the door of their bedroom upon realizing that they were still engaged in a strange conversation. Craning his head through the crack to stare at them, he said, ”Daddy, Mommy, quit fooling around. It's time to wake up.”
”You don't have to bother about us. Uncle Shixin will take the three of you to school. Daddy doesn't have to go to work today,” said Jin Qingyan.
An Youqing let out a long sigh and said, ”Society is so unfair. Why do I have to attend school when I'm so young, yet you don't have to go to work although you're so old? How unprincipled.”
”Son, I'm your father. How could you say that I'm old?”
”What am I supposed to say otherwise?”
”You should say that Daddy is very young.”
”Are you as young as I am?” said An Youqing as he turned around to leave.
”…”
After breakfast, Fan Shixin brought the three children to school.
As soon as they entered, they were greeted with the delicate voice of a little girl. ”Youqing.”
”Yue Chan,” An Youqing greeted Yue Chan smilingly and walked towards her.
”Brother, who's that?” Long Xiaoxi asked Long Wenlun while tugging at his sleeve.
”She's Youqing's table mate.”
”I want to sit next to Brother Youqing too,” Long Xiaoxi said with pouted lips.
”That's impossible. You're in lower kindergarten while we're in upper. We're one grade apart. Well, unless you work hard to perform well academically and advance a grade. By then, we'll all be in first grade. We can get Daddy and Mommy to arrange you two to sit together. That's the only solution.”
Stomping her feet on the ground, Long Xiaoxi lamented, ”Ahh, that sounds really complicated.”
”Okay, I'm going to class now.”
Long Xiaoxi quickly rushed forward to grab him and asked, ”Brother, when are Daddy and Mommy going to come home?”
”I don't know, they should be home soon though.”
”Okay.” Long Xiaoxi let go of his hand and began walking towards her own classroom.
She was a little disgruntled about how happy her beloved Brother Youqing seemed to be with his table mate.
Long Xiaoxi rested her head on the table with her legs dangling from the chair, which was too high for her petite stature.
The curriculum for lower kindergarten was far less stressful than that for upper kindergarten. The first lesson for the day was an arts and crafts session led by the teacher. Once she was done with her piece, Long Xiaoxi took the chance to sneak out of the back door when the teacher was not looking.
She treaded along the stairs to the window of the upper kindergarten classroom. Due to the fact that she was too short, she could not reach high enough to peek inside the window.
Moreover, the back door was locked. Thus, she had no choice but to lean against the back door and peek through the crack.
She managed to catch a glimpse of An Youqing.
Standing on tiptoes, Long Xiaoxi stared inside, only to find that her Brother Youqing was chatting and giggling merrily with his table partner.
After staring for a long while, she decided to return to her own classroom.
For the rest of the morning, Long Xiaoxi was rather distracted during class.
During dismissal, she specially stood by the entrance of the kindergarten to wait for the rest of them.
She was slightly annoyed to see An Youqing waving goodbye at Yue Chan enthusiastically.
”Brother Youqing.”
”Yes? What's the matter, Xiaoxi?”
”What's the name of your table mate?” Long Xiaoxi asked with a grin.
”Her name is Yue Chan.”Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.
”Oh, what a nice name. She's very pretty too.”
”I thought so too,” An Youqing agreed, nodding.
The smile on Long Xiaoxi immediately turned into a gloomy sulk. ”Do you think she's prettier than I am?”
”Um…” An Youqing was put in a spot as he found the both of them to be equally pretty.
”Answer me, quick.”
”Of course… Yue Chan is prettier.”
Long Xiaoxi's eyes widened in shock as a frown formed on her forehead. ”Hmph, I'm going to ignore you from now on, Brother Youqing!” she exclaimed in annoyance.
Noticing that she stormed off in anger, An Youqing quickly shouted, ”Hey, I'm just joking!”
