Ji Yuanyuan glanced at her daughter through the rearview mirror.
She saw her daughter looking at her with her head tilted. Her eyes were sparkling and filled with anticipation.
Ji Yuanyuan nodded gently, âOkay, Iâll pick you up in the afternoon.â
âMom, I love you so much!â Tangtang danced happily.
Ji Yuanyuan retracted her gaze and continued driving.
However, when she thought of her daughterâs smile, she quickly thought of Yin Xiuxiuâs daughter.
They were all girls. Some were doted on, while others had never even seen this world.
After sending Tangtang to the entrance of the kindergarten, Tangtang, who had been in kindergarten for several days, was reluctant to leave.
She held Ji Yuanyuanâs hand and asked pitifully, âMom, can you accompany me in?â
It was probably because she had gotten used to the novelty of kindergarten.
Ji Yuanyuan squatted down and comforted Tangtang.
Tangtang was brought into the kindergarten by the kindergarten teacher. Her small figure beside the teacher looked back at her three times with every step she took.
After entering the classroom, Tangtang ran to the window and waved at Ji Yuanyuan through the window, probably standing on a stool.
In less than two seconds, Teacher Han rushed over and carried Tangtang away.
Ji Yuanyuan smiled and shook her head when she saw her daughterâs mischievous look.
Back in the car, she started the engine.
Suddenly, she seemed to have thought of something, and her expression became more and more determined.
The answer she wanted seemed to have been found.
She smiled and quickly drove away from the kindergarten.
When she got home, she had breakfast. After accompanying Qin Junshan to fish in the courtyard for a while, she went upstairs under Cheng Shuqinâs urging.
At 2:40 p.m., she set off on time to pick up Tangtang from the kindergarten.
Tangtangâs eyes lit up when she saw Ji Yuanyuan in the crowd.
Like a small cannonball, she crashed into Ji Yuanyuanâs arms.
âMom, I was especially obedient today. Teacher Han praised me.â As Tangtang spoke, she pulled out a small red flower from her bag strap.
âLook, this is for obedient children. Itâs for you.â As Tangtang spoke, she stuck the little red flower on Ji Yuanyuanâs clothes.
Ji Yuanyuan smiled as she took her school bag from her back. Then, she hugged her in her arms, âThatâs great. I knew it. Our Tangtang is the best.â
Tangtang raised her little face and smiled proudly.
On the way back, Tangtang suddenly had an idea. She asked Ji Yuanyuan in a fawning voice, âMom, Iâm so obedient today. Can I have an ice-cream?â
A childâs stomach was weak. During summer, she could still eat ice cream every three to five days.
But now that the weather was cold, Cheng Shuqin didnât let her eat.
It was already good enough to eat it once or twice a month.
However, she was still a child.
She had no resistance to things like ice cream and candy.
When it came to educating children, Ji Yuanyuan had always been unwilling to go against Cheng Shuqin.
After all, Cheng Shuqin was doing this for the good of the child. Moreover, she had raised Qin Mucheng and had more experience.
However, Ji Yuanyuanâs heart softened when she saw Tang Tangâs eager eyes through the rearview mirror.
âOkay, then weâll buy one.â She agreed after a moment of hesitation.
âI want strawberry-flavored.â Tangtang was happy.
Ji Yuanyuan smiled and nodded. She found a parking space by the roadside and after parking the car, she brought Tangtang to the nearby supermarket.
After picking out the ice cream and walking out of the supermarket, Tangtang couldnât wait to open it and eat it.
Ji Yuanyuan had no choice but to stand at the entrance of the supermarket and unwrap the ice cream for her.
After opening it and placing it in Tangtangâs hands, Ji Yuanyuan looked up and saw a familiar figure not far away.
Tangtang also saw it. She stopped eating her ice cream and shouted at the top of her lungs, âAuntie
Ji Yuanyuan did not keep an eye on Tangtang and she ran over.
Ji Yuanyuan quickly took a few steps forward and carried Tangtang, âDidnât Mommy tell you? Donât run around.â
âAuntie is leavingâ¦â Tangtang pointed anxiously. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Ji Yuanyuan glanced at her and coaxed her.â Letâs go home first. Mommy will bring you to see Auntie tomorrow, okay?â
Tangtang shook her head like a rattle-drum, âNo, sheâs going now. Let Auntie see this.â
She pointed at the little red flower on Ji Yuanyuanâs clothes.
Ji Yuanyuan wanted to say something else, but Tangtang called out again, âAuntyâ¦â
This time, it finally attracted the attention of the other side.
Seeing that Yang Jingyi was looking at her, Ji Yuanyuan could only smile and carry Tangtang over.
Yang Jingyi was standing with a man who was holding a little girl who looked about seven or eight years old.
âWhat a coincidence.â Yang Jingyi smiled awkwardly when she saw Ji Yuanyuan.
Tangtang pointed at the little red flower on Ji Yuanyuanâs body and said excitedly to Yang Jingyi, âAuntie, look.â
âDid the teacher give it to Tangtang?â Yang Jingyi looked at Tangtang with a more natural expression. âTangtang is so awesome!â
Tangtang nodded proudly.
âThis is my best friend, Xiao Jiâ¦â Yang Jingyi was about to introduce him.
âTsk, itâs just a little red flower. Whatâs so great about it? You havenât seen the world!â The little girl holding the manâs hand suddenly rolled her eyes and said disdainfully.
When Tangtang heard this, her eyes instantly widened and she looked at the little girl in disbelief.
Yang Jingyi looked at Ji Yuanyuan awkwardly.
âDonât be rude. Apologize to her.â The man chided in a low voice.
The little girl stubbornly raised her head like a rebellious child and refused to apologize.
J1 Yuanyuan saw Yang Jingyiâs awkward expression and tried to smooth things over, âItâs okay. Sheâs just a child. Sheâs just a child.â
âIâm really sorry that the child is insensible.â The man smiled.
âItâs alright.â Ji Yuanyuan shook her head.
âJingyi, I wonât bother you anymore. Iâll go back with Tangtang.â She looked at Yang Jingyi.
Yang Jingyi nodded and waved at Tangtang, âBye, Tangtang. Iâll visit you some other day and buy you some toys, okay?â
Ji Yuanyuan lowered her head and realized that Tangtang was staring angrily at the little girl beside her.
Ji Yuanyuan held back her laughter and lifted Tangtangâs small face, âQin Yutang, Aunty is talking to you!â
Tangtang looked up at Yang Jingyi, âAuntie, I miss you. You have to come.â
Yang Jingyi couldnât help but reach out and touch her face.
âDonât buy any toys. I have a lot of toys.â Tangtang said.
Hearing Tangtangâs words, the little girl snorted coldly again.
Ji Yuanyuan looked at the man beside Yang Jingyi and nodded with a smile.
The man was stunned for a moment before nodding.
Ji Yuanyuan turned around and frowned.
The way that man looked at her just now made her feel a little uncomfortable.
That kind of scrutinizing gaze.
After Ji Yuanyuan left, the man looked at Yang Jingyi.. âWhy havenât I heard you mention her before?â
