Some people seem to be alive, but in fact, they have been gone for a while.
On the way from the kindergarten gate to home, Lu Xing felt for the first time what it was like to be on pins and needles.
Lu Xing was used to taking care of others.
If he were to share his experience, as long as the money was in place, he could talk for three days and three nights without taking a breath.
But!
Now that Lu Xing was suddenly being taken care of by Auntie Wen, he didn't even know where to put his hands!
Lu Xing was in tears in his heart.
I'm being honest, please let me go.
Auntie Wen, don't be like this. Let me take care of you!
Wen Lingxiu looked at Lu Xing and Nannan sitting in the back through the rearview mirror, the corners of her mouth lifting slightly as she said with a smile.
"There's a gift in the bag in the back."
"Okay."
Lu Xing scanned the area and found a white paper bag.
Inside were two boxes.
Lu Xing opened one of them. It was a hair clip studded with sparkling diamonds.
Nannan lay obediently on Lu Xing's shoulder. Her eyes lit up when she saw the hair clip, and she said happily.
"Thank you, Mommy!"
At her age, she was at the stage of liking those sparkling, ugly things.
Nannan hugged Lu Xing's neck and stretched her little head towards him. "Daddy, Daddy, put it on for me!"
"Okay, okay."
Lu Xing carefully pressed down on Nannan's hair to prevent pulling it, then clipped the hair clip in her hair.
"OK! It's beautiful!"
"Thank you, Daddy!"
Mwah.
Nannan kissed Lu Xing's cheek, then climbed over to find Wen Lingxiu.
"Mommy is driving. Can you kiss her later when we get home?"
Lu Xing was quick-witted and immediately scooped Nannan back.
Thousands of roads, safety is the first.
Irregular driving, tears for the loved ones.
"Okay."
Nannan nestled in Lu Xing's arms, happily touching the hair clip in her hair.
Lu Xing was a little confused. "Does Nannan want to look in the mirror?"
Hearing this, Nannan suddenly buried herself in Lu Xing's arms with a lost look and said sullenly.
"No."
Hmm?
Lu Xing looked through the rearview mirror and exchanged a look with Wen Lingxiu, who was looking over.
Not right!
Lu Xing's heart skipped a beat. He gently patted Nannan's back and said slowly.
"Does Nannan still remember what Daddy said last time?"
Nannan thought for a moment and repeated obediently.
"Daddy said that if Nannan is unhappy about something, she should tell us when she gets home. If someone wants to touch Nannan, she should also tell us when she gets home."
Wen Lingxiu looked at Lu Xing with surprise.
She had no experience raising a child for the first time and had certainly not considered this aspect.
But she hadn't expected Lu Xing to be so meticulous, to even consider these aspects?
It seems Lu Xing is really very attentive to Nannan...
Lu Xing stroked Nannan's little head and said gently.
"Then why is Nannan unhappy? Shouldn't you tell Daddy and Mommy?"
Nannan's two hands were wrapped around Lu Xing's neck, her eyebrows furrowed into a V-shape.
Lu Xing didn't rush her.
Wen Lingxiu agreed with Lu Xing's educational method. At this moment, she gripped the steering wheel nervously.
Nannan hesitated for a moment and said slowly.
"My deskmate said, said I'm chubby like a little pig, and no little pig looks in the mirror."
Beep—
Wen Lingxiu's anger was not suppressed. The car horn blared, and the surrounding vehicles instantly swerved to avoid her.
Lu Xing sighed.
Sometimes, the evil of a child is the purest evil.
Nannan wasn't fat at all. She was like a glutinous rice ball, fair and tender, obedient and well-behaved.
Lu Xing patted Nannan's back and said slowly, "Then does Nannan think Daddy is handsome?"
Huh?
Nannan came out of Lu Xing's arms, carefully touched Lu Xing's face, and thought for a moment.
"Daddy is very handsome! I heard the teacher say Daddy is very handsome the other day!"
Uh...
Lu Xing lowered his head, feeling guilty. Wen Lingxiu glanced at him through the rearview mirror.
Cough, cough, cough.
Lu Xing cleared his throat, forced himself to be calm, and said again, "But many people say Daddy is very ugly."
What!
Nannan said angrily, "They are all talking nonsense! Daddy is not ugly at all!"
Lu Xing also nodded angrily. "Nannan is right! They are all just jealous that I'm too handsome!"
"If they say that, and I believe it, then I won't dare to go out, and they will be the most handsome!"
Nannan fell into deep thought.
Lu Xing smiled and pinched Nannan's cheek. "Now do you think what your deskmate said is true?"
Nannan figured it out.
"She said Nannan is like a little pig to make Nannan unhappy. That way, Nannan won't dare to go out!"
"If Nannan doesn't go out, she will be the cutest in the kindergarten!"
Bingo!
Lu Xing kissed Nannan's cheek. "So smart! So what should we do..."
Nannan was as if her Ren and Du meridians had been opened.
(TL: Two major meridians in traditional Chinese medicine; opening them means achieving a breakthrough.)
"Nannan will go to school happily and become the cutest baby in the kindergarten!"
That's right!
Lu Xing was happy and mysteriously took out a mirror from his pocket.
"This is a reward for Nannan!"
Nannan hugged the small mirror Lu Xing handed her with pleasant surprise. On the back was a picture of Snow White.
Lu Xing held Nannan and rocked her gently, saying slowly.
"Nannan."
"You have to believe what the people who love you say."
"By the way."
"Is your deskmate usually nice to you?"
Wen Lingxiu's gaze instantly became serious.
Nannan thought for a moment and said foolishly, "She gives me delicious food."
Lu Xing paused for a moment. "After she gives you food, does she say anything? Daddy really wants to know about Nannan's life in kindergarten."
Between her deskmate and Lu Xing, Nannan sided with Lu Xing without any hesitation.
Nannan said with conflict.
"She said this is our little secret and I can't tell Daddy and Mommy."
Lu Xing's gaze instantly became sharp.
So young, yet so proficient in PUA.
(TL: While PUA was originally used for "Pick-Up Artist" in China it is now used as a catch-all term for people who use toxic emotional manipulation, psychological abuse, and gaslighting in any type of relationship, not just romantic ones.)
Give a slap and then a date.
People are not dogs.
After being kicked, a pat on the head can make you come running back?
If he hadn't asked, he might not have known that there was such a person around Nannan.
Lu Xing said with a smile, "That's so nice. She even gives you food."
"Then what's her name? I'll buy a small cake to thank her later."
Nannan thought for a moment.
Daddy is also going to give my deskmate delicious food. Then my deskmate shouldn't be angry that I told Daddy the secret, right?
Small cakes are delicious!
"Her name is Zhao Ya."
Lu Xing nodded. "Oh, so her name is Zhao Ya."
"Did you hear that, Mommy? This is Nannan's deskmate."
Wen Lingxiu nodded and also smiled.
"I've remembered it."
It won't be for long.
After comforting Nannan, Lu Xing looked at the other box in the bag.
He opened it.
Inside lay a Cartier watch.
Lu Xing looked up at Wen Lingxiu in surprise.
He met Wen Lingxiu's gentle gaze in the rearview mirror.
"Nannan has a gift."
"Xing-xing also has a gift."
"Last time I saw that the strap of your watch was a little worn. I was thinking of getting you a new one."
Lu Xing was taken aback for a moment, then said happily.
"Thank you. I like it very much."
"Does Nannan want to help me put it on?"
"Okay!" Nannan tried her best to help Lu Xing put the watch on his wrist.
Lu Xing lowered his head to hide his calm gaze.
This world has many people like Zhao Ya.
There are thousands of Zhao Yas.
And some people don't even realize that they are a Zhao Ya themself.
