I Stayed with Her for Three Years
← Ch.0594 | Ch.0596 → |
"Xiaochun, let her stay here. The teacher in charge of the class just said that she will get used to the situation in two weeks." Wu Chen frowned as he took a step forward.
"Little Xin, do you like it here?" Zhou Manzhen did not pay any attention to Yu Chen's words. Instead, she smiled and asked Yu Xin.
Yu Xin shook her head. She didn't like it here at all. Yu Xin had just reached the age of tuition, so she was a bit scared and afraid of strangers.
"Then Mom will take you to your favorite kindergarten, okay?" Xiao Mo was attending school here, so Yu Xin definitely couldn't be there. Otherwise, if they were to meet again when they were picking up the children, how embarrassing would that be?
Yu Chen furrowed his brows as he looked at Zhou Manzhen thoughtfully. In his heart, he understood what was going on. He pursed his lips and did not say a word.
The fact that Zhou Man would always appear here proved that Lantau Island was a place to study. Yu Chen could see through Zhou Manzhen's intentions with a single glance. In order to protect his good child, he too felt that this was the best choice.
"Mom, where did you go before? Little Xin misses you." Yu Xin asked with a smile as her soft little hand wrapped around Zhou Manzhen's neck. Her big, shining eyes sparkled.
"Mom has gone to work. Little Xin, have you listened to dad recently?" Zhou Manzhen secretly gritted his teeth as his clear eyes flashed with a hint of remorse.
She was just a three-year-old child who was very dependent on Zhou Manzhen. Zhou Manzhen could not bear to leave this child behind, and although she was not her own child, she had called her mother for more than two years. In fact, the relationship between her and Yuxin had long since turned into a blood kinship.
"Yes, Little Xin is very obedient. Mom, Little Xin wants to go to the seaside to play. Didn't you promise Little Xin before?"
"Alright, but we have to choose a kindergarten first. Little Xin, you can't stay away from school tomorrow." Zhou Manzhen lovingly looked at Yu Xin. Stretching out a finger, she lightly tapped the tip of her nose.
Yu Xin leaned on Zhou Manzhen's shoulder and laughed heartily, "Okay, dad, are you coming with us?"
Yu Chen pursed his lips, a grim expression on his face. He had wanted to say whatever it was, but it was too embarrassing to refuse his as he gazed at his expectant eyes.
Zhou Manzhu smiled as she carried Yu Chen to the side of his sportscar. Yu Chen took the initiative to open the door for her, but they maintained a distance. The two weren't as intimate as they were in the past.
"Chen, are you busy with work? If you're not busy, then come with us." Zhou Manzhen smiled and invited him.
Yu Chen stared at her blankly, not daring to believe his ears. Never in his wildest dreams would he imagine that Zhou Manzun would actually invite him on his own accord. A smile broke out on his knife-scarred face as he said excitedly, "Alright."
Actually, Zhou Manzhu was only trying to not disappoint Yu Xin. After all, she was a three year old child, and her young heart still needed protection.
Yu Chen drove the car around the various kindergartens in the city before finally stopping in front of a private kindergarten.
Yu Xin looked at the kindergarten through the window. The theme of the exterior wall was light blue and light pink, giving off a very small and fresh feeling. She excitedly waved her hand in the car and said, "Dad, mom, I like this kindergarten."
Zhou Manzhu also followed Yu Xin's gaze. She opened the door and led Yu Xin out of the car.
Although this kindergarten wasn't as big as the one on Lantau Island, the interior decoration was very comfortable, especially for girls. Yu Xin was attracted by the small, fresh tint.
Entering the kindergarten, Zhou Man brought Yu Xin to look around the first floor. Each classroom had two teachers and the classroom was decorated differently.
Yu Xin walked past the second class and saw two young and pretty female teachers playing games with the children. Her eyes immediately widened as she stood at the door, unwilling to leave.
A burst of cheerful laughter came from inside the classroom. On the television was a lyrical piece of music, "Orchid Grass". A teacher with black braids was leading the students to play a game of snatching chairs.
"Little Xin, do you like it here?" Zhou Manzhen squatted down and gently looked at Yu Xin.
Yu Xin nodded and pointed to the classroom."Mom, if you like it here, can I join this class?"
"Of course." Zhou reached out and gently pinched Yu Xin's cheek, then took her hand and led her into the classroom.
"Hello, little friend." A female teacher wearing black-rimmed glasses walked over. Her pure white face revealed a big smile as she enthusiastically said to Yu Xin.
"Hello teacher, may I go to school here?" Yu Xin cutely gazed at her teacher, her eyes filled with yearning and expectation.
"Of course you can. We are very welcome." The black-rimmed glasses female teacher was all smiles as she looked at Yu Xin. She even squatted down to hug her.
Yu Xin also returned the hug of her teacher. Although the facilities and educational level of this kindergarten were not as good as the one before, she felt comfortable and at ease when she came here. Seeing so many children here, she began to dream about the life of this kindergarten.
Zhou Manzheng was about to converse with her teacher when her cell phone suddenly rang. She hastily took out her cell phone and said with a smile, "Chen, I'm going to pick up the phone and help Little Xin pay her tuition. Can you talk to her for a while?"
"Alright, go ahead." A touch of gentleness could be seen in Yu Chen's warm eyes as he looked at Zhou Manquan, his heart beating faster.
"Wife, are you at the company yet?" Jin Beiseng was lying on the bed, and his magnetic voice revealed a hint of yearning.
After just a few hours of not seeing Zhou Manzhen, Jin began to think about her.
"Not yet. I met Little Xin at Little Mo's kindergarten. Little Xin has been crying ever since. Yu Chen and I took her to another kindergarten. We're currently in the kindergarten right now." Zhou Manzhu held her phone and walked into the corridor. She couldn't help but feel nervous, as if she had done something wrong.
The person on the other end of the line remained silent for a few seconds.
If it wasn't for the phone's display still on the phone, Zhou Manzhen would have thought that Jin Beiseng had hung up.
She sighed and said in a sad tone, "Bei Sen, don't be angry, I know I shouldn't have done this, I should have been completely focused on Xiao Xin, but seeing her cry, I really can't bear to see her, she is such a small child after all, she doesn't know anything, and she shouldn't have paid for my selfishness, she called me mother from the moment she was born, I've been with her for three years and have long gotten used to this kind of life, during this time I really miss her, I might be coming back a bit late tonight, I can't go to kindergarten with you to pick up Xiao Mo to school."
