Upon hearing this, Tuan Tuan’s fair and tender ears moved slightly.

“Tuan Tuan…” Lin Nuan’s soothing palms stroked Tuan Tuan’s little tummy.

Tuan Tuan felt ticklish from the touch. Before he could open his eyes, he already started giggling.

Seeing Tuan Tuan open his black and bright eyes with much difficulty, Lin Nuan rubbed his tummy again. Tuan Tuan held a hand to his belly and cackled with laughter.

When he turned his head, Tuan Tuan revealed a big grin.

Lin Nuan carried Tuan Tuan into her arms. “Little lazy bum, you’re going to be late for kindergarten…”

Tuan Tuan’s blurred vision caught sight of Lin Nuan’s vibrant features. As his vision cleared up, he realized he was hugged in Lin Nuan’s arms. Tuan Tuan was super happy.

“Mama…” Tuan Tuan sounded a little sleepy.

“En, wake up and rinse before having breakfast!” Lin Nuan rubbed her nose against Tuan Tuan’s.

Tuan Tuan kept giggling, his two chubby little hands wrapped around Lin Nuan’s neck.

Seeing the mother-and-son duo so chummy this early in the morning, Fu Huai’an released the door handle and placed his hand on the door. “Fat Tuan Tuan, stop wasting time! Hurry!”

Even though he was called Fat Tuan Tuan by Fu Huai’an, Tuan Tuan liked the feeling of seeing his papa and mama the minute he opened his eyes. This made the little one feel incredibly blissful. He called out to Fu Huai’an in his soft and cute voice. “Papa!”

With the sense of sleepiness gradually dissipating, Tuan Tuan got up from Lin Nuan’s arms and obediently went to wash up and change his clothes by himself.

Lin Nuan also washed up simply before heading down for breakfast.

Because she remembered the promise to Little Candy, Lin Nuan stuffed a bag of candy inside Tuan Tuan’s school bag before eating breakfast.

Tuan Tuan held a milk glass in his hand, his hands sprawled on the little dining chair as he drank his milk and stared at the glass of juice in Lin Nuan’s hands with those black and bright eyes of his.

This was a scene that replayed at breakfast nearly every morning. Fu Huai’an’s eyes were fixed on his newspaper, not looking at the mother-and-son duo. He knew that next, Lin Nuan would hand her glass to Tuan Tuan.

Tuan Tuan wasn’t greedy; after gulping down two big mouthfuls, he raised the cup with both hands and handed it back to Lin Nuan.

Lin Nuan beamed as she drew a napkin and wiped the orange juice mustache on Tuan Tuan’s mouth.

…

In the car.

Tuan Tuan was seated in Lin Nuan’s arms, a look of seriousness on his face as he clumsily explained the story in the drawing book to Lin Nuan.

Even though these stories were too childish for Lin Nuan, she felt that this was a good way to train Tuan Tuan’s speaking abilities, so she listened very attentively.

After Tuan Tuan finished telling the story of the little bees fighting, Lin Nuan asked Tuan Tuan, “Do your arms still ache?”

Tuan Tuan rubbed his meaty little arms through his uniform, then raised his head and nodded at Lin Nuan, then shook his head.

Lin Nuan stroked Tuan Tuan’s little head. Although she felt that what she was about to suggest was a little cowardly, she still voiced it out, saying, “In the future, if you encounter a situation like yesterday, you can go straight to the teacher!”

Tuan Tuan thought about it, then decided to obey his mother, nodding his head seriously. “En!”

…

At the entrance of the kindergarten.

The minute Lin Nuan got out of the car with Tuan Tuan’s hand in hers, she saw Little Candy jump out of the back seat of You Nainai’s cheap car.

Little Candy was dressed like she usually was, in a girl’s skirted school uniform over a pair of boy’s trousers. Her short hair was bunched up into a ponytail sticking up in the air, and she was also wearing a pink clip. Her thick fringe didn’t hide the white gash on her head.

Little Candy closed the car door with great strength, then saw Lin Nuan squatting by the car and tidying up Tuan Tuan’s collar. She excitedly jumped up and yelled, “Tuan Tuan! Tuan Tuan’s Mama!”

Lin Nuan turned her head around.

You Nainai got out of the car as well, berating Little Candy for her loud voice.

Indeed, Little Candy’s voice had attracted the attention of the parents at the entrance who were sending their kids to school.

Lin Nuan retrieved the bag of candy from Tuan Tuan’s school bag and handed it to Tuan Tuan, then walked hand-in-hand with Tuan Tuan to Little Candy.

Tuan Tuan handed the bag of candy to Little Candy, who happily received it from his hands. “Tuan Tuan, you didn’t forget!”

Tuan Tuan was a little embarrassed as he shook his head. “Mama remembered.”

“Is this the kid who fought with you yesterday?”

The minute those words came out of Tuan Tuan’s mouth, they were interrupted by a shrill female voice.

You Nainai and Lin Nuan both turned to the source of the voice. A svelte woman adorned in jewels and wearing the latest season’s Chanel suit looked in Lin Nuan and You Nainai’s direction. Her beautiful eyes were staring coldly at them, not attempting to hide her high-and-mighty attitude.

That parent’s vision swept over the cheap car next to You Nainai and Lin Nuan, then back to the oddly-dressed Little Candy. She began snickering. “What’s wrong with this kindergarten? Why are they taking in just any Tom, Dick, or Harry? I’ve got to talk to the principal one day; if they lack money, I can sponsor! Wouldn’t they be harming the kids if they just take in any Tom, Dick, or Harry! Our kids are all so precious, their fathers all general managers, if not presidents…”

Lin Nuan had seen the kid next to that parent before—it was one of the two kids who had fought with Tuan Tuan.

That kid stood next to his mother, cautiously sneaking a glance in Lin Nuan’s direction. He lowered his head and stared at the unfinished chocolate in his hands, not uttering a sound.

You Nainai’s motto had always been that if one could use physical means, there was no point in wasting time arguing…

Seeing the infuriated You Nainai roll up her sleeves, Lin Nuan grabbed her wrists.

The vicious-tongued parent pulled her child with her as she retreated a step. “Low-class people are indeed low-class. What standard is this!”

Lin Nuan’s delicate features under her tweed cap carried a smile in them. “In this day and age, general managers and presidents are all over the streets! One throw of a brick will strike a dozen or so of them! Even the boss of a vegetable and fruit grocery will print ‘President of Grocery Trading Firm’ on his name card.”

The expression of the female parent, who was still mocking Lin Nuan and You Nainai in a sarcastic tone, suddenly darkened.

Lin Nuan then lightly smiled and stroked Tuan Tuan and Little Candy’s heads. “As if anyone’s father isn’t a president! Alright… go into kindergarten now!”

The identity of Little Candy’s father was no longer a secret among their circle!

With Tang Zheng’s status, who dared to say he wasn’t bold and assured?

“What standard is this!” That parent glowered at Lin Nuan before lowering her head and educating her kid. “In the future, if anyone dares lay a finger on you, especially those who have no right to be in the kindergarten, you fight with all your might, don’t lose out! Don’t worry, you have your father!”

Lin Nuan was rendered speechless.

Was there really no problem with the way this parent was educating her child?

Tuan Tuan obediently looked up at Lin Nuan, waving at her. “Mama, bye bye!”

“En! Bye bye, Tuan Tuan!” Lin Nuan bent over and fixed Tuan Tuan’s collar as she repeated her words to Tuan Tuan, still worried. “Remember what Mama said, if you run into a situation like that again, don’t let yourself get hurt, ok?”
