Chapter 270 - "When are Daddy and Mommy getting married?" (3)

Cheng Huan and Shen Xi didn’t talk much but Cheng Huan was able to gleam a lot of information out of their meeting. Most importantly, she was certain now that Shen Xi had no intention to fight over her son with her.

She felt ashamed of her own dark side and bought many toys on her way back before she went to pick up XingXing from the school. XingXing was surrounded by the toys as soon as he got inside of the car and was so happy that he didn’t even know what to do or say. He kissed Cheng Huan repeated on her cheek, “I love you, Mommy!”

Cheng Huan rubbed the little kiddo on his head with one hand and said, “Mommy loves you too.”

She paused for a little, then added, “I love you the most.”

“Do you love me more than Daddy does?”

Cheng Huan, “… something like that.”

“What do you mean by ‘something like that’?” XingXing couldn’t move around when he was strapped down in his seat but that did not deter him from countering verbally. “Our teacher had said that ‘most’ mean only one!”

“Why would you teacher teach you something like that?” Cheng Huan felt that that was entirely out of the realm of a kindergarten lower class. Grumbling, she force-changed the subject, “Daddy hired you a teacher. Be polite when you see them in a little while, okay?”

As Cheng Huan had been to Jiang MingYuan’s office for a few times, she was considered to be official in Jiang MingYuan’s circle. As such, she had been invited out by other ladies.

Cheng Huan had turned them down initially but, after more invitations, she finally went a couple of times. They would inevitably bring their children up. One said her son was taking lessons on two other languages and the other said her daughter had just passed her level 10 examination in piano.

After listening to those for a while, Cheng Huan suddenly realized that XingXing had no extracurricular activities. He was attending an elite school and all of the kids there have had trainings in all areas since an early age. If all XingXing did was work on what he learned from school, for sure he would be looked up down and that would not be good for his development.

As such, for the sake of his healthy development, Cheng Huan and Jiang MingYuan talked about it and decided to hire a music teacher for the little kiddo to each him violin.

The new teacher was a somewhat famed violinist in China. Their name was Lu Lou and they were just 25 years old. Cheng Huan had no idea how Jiang MingYuan was able to hire them.

Jiang MingYuan had a banquet that night and the violin teacher was dropped off by Chi Shan. They’ve introduced themselves and Lu Luo brought XingXing into their newly-built music room without too much chitchatting.

Cheng Huan was a little worried as it was their first lessons. Not knowing what could go wrong, she waited for 5 minutes before she cut up a plate of fruits and brought it inside. She sat down to one side and never left again. The teacher was serious in her teaching and XingXing’s attitude was quite good as well. The two of them got along peacefully and the teacher got up and took off after two hours.

Cheng Huan stood up, “Why don’t you have dinner here?”

Lu Luo declined her politely. Cheng Huan, too, did not push the issue and walked them to the door.

Once the door was closed, Cheng Huan asked XingXing how did it go.

“Didn’t you see it all, Mommy?” XingXing drank some water as he pouted, obviously still mad at their earlier conversation from the car.

“Mommy is asking whether you enjoy the violin.” Even though it was important for the child to have a few talents, but Cheng Huan still wanted to consult XingXing’s thoughts to the extent possible.

“Alright, I guess.” XingXing didn’t seem to care much either way. He had barely got to touch the violin during his two-hour class but he was somewhat interested. The little kiddo rubbed his hand on his pants, picked up a large strawberry from the plate and bit off half of it. He chewed it a couple of times before he pulled out another one and handed it over to Cheng Huan. “This is tasty.”

Cheng Huan didn’t take it from him. “Don’t eat too much. It’s almost dinner time.”

“Oh,” said XingXing as he ate the remaining strawberry.

Jiang MingYuan wasn’t home so it was just the two of them having dinner together. They played for a little bit after dinner before the little kiddo went to bath himself.

The little kiddo seemed to have matured a lot over the new year. He now knew that boys and girls are different and that he should not let his mommy watch him bathe.

Her son was shy and there was nothing that Cheng Huan could do about it. She could only wait around outside the bathroom, worried. Luckily, everything went smoothly and XingXing was able to bathe himself.

Whilst he may not want someone of the opposite gender to watch him bathe, he did not have that concern when it came to storytelling. Cheng Huan, sitting next to the bed, the story book in hand, continued reading the story from the night before. XingXing was particularly energetic today and he stayed awake for a long time. By the time Cheng Huan got to the part of the wedding of the elephant and the crow, his eyes were still opened. “Mommy, when are you and Daddy going to get married?”
