Even though it was already in the late 90s, the workload given to elementary school students was still manageable. To a certain extent, Luo Shuyan found it to be extremely easy to complete.
Students had four classes in the morning and three in the afternoon. The main subjects included mathematics, language, science, and moral & ideology. Minor subjects included art, music and sports.
The father and daughter duo woke up at 7 in the morning. Luo Tianyuan was still feeling provoked by his daughterâs opinion from the day before. Youâd usually find it adorable when children talked about cute young love, but Luo Tianyuan was feeling uneasy about it.
This day, he decided to personally take his daughter to school. Sometimes when he was busy, heâd allow her to walk to school with Shen Yan. The elementary school was meters away from their accommodation and the surroundings were relatively safe.
Elementary school students werenât required to wear school uniforms other than on Mondays since they had their flag raising ceremony on Mondays.
It was Friday. Luo Shuyan opened her cupboard and picked out a ruffled pink dress and ignored the boring dark blue school uniform.
Luo Shuyan was quite popular. She realized that young girls in her class were in an awkward phase of growing up. They used to love wearing dresses in kindergarten, but they didnât like to anymore when they entered elementary school. Luo Shuyan once overheard a parent reprimanding their child for being wasteful and not wearing the dresses that theyâd bought for her.
Although she was also six, she couldnât really understand what her classmates were thinking about.
Half of her closet was filled with dresses. Every time Luo Tianyuan went for a business trip, heâd go to the local departmental store to buy her the latest childrenâs clothing. Thus, since kindergarten, sheâd always been the most well-dressed in her classâ¦
After sheâd put on her dress, she came out from her room and saw her father squatting in front of the fridge with a worried expression on his face.
Luo Tianyuan wasnât very attentive when it came to house chores. When his daughter was in kindergarten, heâd once attempted to prepare a heart-felt breakfast for her, but his poor culinary skills only made things worse. Then onwards, he gave up hope on preparing food for her.
Now, it was Shen Qingruo who took care of all three of his daughterâs meals.
As for Luo Tianyuan, he was a grown man and he could easily eat out wherever he was.
Yet today, Luo Tianyuan really wanted to prove himself as a capable father by preparing a scrumptious breakfast for his daughter. However, he woke up to find that there wasnât much in the fridge to work with.
When Luo Shuyan saw her fatherâs current state, she immediately ran up to him, puffed up her cheeks and said, âAunty Shen said that sheâll make noodles for me.â
Nothing scared her more than her father being in the kitchen.
Luo Shuyan recalled the charcoal burnt fried egg that her father had once made, she was sure even the hen wouldnât be able to recognize its own egg in that stateâ¦
ââ¦â Luo Tianyuan stood up and said, âAlright, go brush your teeth and wash your face. Papa will send you to school after breakfast.â
Luo Shuyan was still in a bit of a daze when she walked into the bathroom and saw that someone had already squeezed toothpaste for her on her pink toothbrush.
After washing up, the two of them went to their neighborâs for breakfast. Shen Qingruo had already made breakfast but Luo Tianyuanâs visit was unexpected. She was stunned for a moment and said, âGive me a moment, Iâll make another bowl of noodles for you.â
Luo Tianyuan would not eat at Shen Qingruoâs. Although most people thought that they would make a good couple, the both of them didnât think of each other that way.
âA clean hand needs no washing.â They knew that their relationship was innocent, and there was no need for them to worry about how others thought of them. However, they had children of their own and they didnât want their children to misunderstand them.
Luo Tianyuan promptly waved his hand and said, âItâs alright, Iâll find something to eat later. Iâm just here to send the children to class.â
Shen Qingruo didnât try to persuade him to stay, after all, she didnât have a very warm personality to begin with.
After everything that sheâs been through in life, she no longer desired for much. Her only wish was to bring up her son well. She liked this peaceful and quiet life although it was comparatively simpler than the life she had before.
In Ning City, locals had the habit of eating noodles and vermicelli for breakfast. Shen Yan had the same taste buds because he basically grew up here. The two children each had a small bowl of noodles and a bowl of green bean soup that Shen Qingruo had made the night before.
Luo Tianyuan thoughtfully stared at the bread and fried egg that Sheng Qingruo was eating.

He didnât want to dig into the background of this single mother and her son. Based on Shen Qingruoâs little habits and charisma, it was easy to tell that she was from a well-to-do family.
Shen Qingruo noticed Luo Tianyuanâs gaze. She smiled and said, âIn the past, I made fried egg sandwiches for them and served it with a glass of milk, but they didnât like it.â
Luo Tianyuan smiled and nodded. âMn, Shuyan hasnât been willing to drink milk ever since she turned one.â
Luo Tianyuan had another reason for this visit. He had to apologize to her on Song Wanqingâs behalf. He knew Song Wanqing well, he believed that she was a kind person who just wasnât very sensitive towards the feelings of others. She was angry over the phone, so he figured that sheâd had an unpleasant experience with Shen Qingruo. It was undoubtedly a disastrous encounter for Shen Qingruo.
Luo Tianyuan awkwardly coughed and covered his mouth with his hand. He wasnât trying to hide the issue from the children since heâd already had the talk with his daughter.
