Little Jin’s mother glanced sideways at Qiu Tong and deliberately raised her voice as she said, “Children should study hard. Don’t be like some children who only know how to mix strange liquids. No idea what they’re doing.”
“How old are they now? They think they are still in the countryside playing with mud!”
The children sat beside Qiu Tong and quietly clenched their fists. They suppressed their unhappiness and gritted their teeth, not wanting to cause trouble for their mother.
Qiu Tong noticed the children’s anger and raised her hand to rub the top of Qiu Xingyuan’s head. She also pinched Qiu Xingqiao’s puffed up little face.
Little Jin’s mother saw her placating the children and mistook Qiu Tong for being ashamed. She arrogantly pulled at the other parent beside her and deliberately pointed at them.
“Those children have very strange tempers. They can’t play with other children!”
“The second son is irritable, the eldest son is solitary and likes to play with dangerous things. Our Little Jin was almost beaten up by them several times…”
“Do you think the kindergarten should screen the children’s family backgrounds? Someone who impacts the environment like this should really be chased out…”
“Look, these children don’t look like they’re that smart. Maybe they won’t be able to pass the elementary school promotion test!”
Little Jin’s mother became more and more excited as she spoke. Qiu Xingqiao could not bear it anymore. His face flushed red with anger, and he jumped to his feet and said, “Nonsense!”
“My Elder Brother is especially outstanding. We just don’t want to waste time with those idiots!”
“Mayor Shen will be bringing an important figure to present an award to my brother! He’ll be presenting the prize himself! And he’ll be publicly praised…”
Qiu Xingqiao’s words made the surrounding parents whisper among themselves, discussing the credibility of Qiu Xingqiao’s words.
Little Jin’s mother looked extremely spiteful. She snorted twice and said, “What a joke. Do you think a big shot would be so free? To come here and give an award to a child?”
The other parents were convinced by Little Jin’s mother. Coupled with their own jealousy, they looked at Qiu Tong and the three children with disdain.
This was indeed a child who liked to lie!
The parents stole a glance at Qiu Tong, who did not try to stop anything or explain. They hid behind her and gossiped. “Look, this parent isn’t even going to stop her own child from lying. Children who are brought up like this will definitely become social delinquents in the future!”
Qiu Xingyuan’s eyes were suffused with hatred as he looked at them coldly.
Qiu Tong rested her hand on his little hand. Qiu Xingyuan looked up and was stunned to see her smile, which was gentle and comforting…
He pulled his hand back awkwardly, but the anger in his body gradually dissipated and returned to normal.
Outside the kindergarten, Shao An arrived early to check the safety of the environment. When he passed the classroom, he saw Qiu Tong and the three children sitting beside her. He was so shocked that he stood rooted to the ground!
He rubbed his eyes and looked at Qiu Xingyuan through the thick and blurry glass window…
Alike! Simply too alike!
It turned out that Qiu Tong had said that her children looked like Jin Yang not because she was lying or just trying to get close to him!
Those two boys really looked like Jin Yang!
Shao An could not help but quietly speculate about the relationship between the two of them…
Buzz—
Shao An’s phone rang. He hid in a corner and answered the call with his hand covering the receiver. He answered respectfully, “Sir.”
Jin Yang stood there, his aura cold and stern. “Come back now.”
Click. The call ended.
Shao An frowned and felt that something was wrong. He immediately started the engine and rushed back.
Qiu Tong sat in the classroom and vaguely sensed someone dashing by. She looked over but did not see anything. She lowered her eyes again.
Shao An rushed back to the villa and looked around warily. Before he could ask what was going on, he heard Jin Yang say in a cold voice, “Pack your things.”
“We’re setting off for the capital now.”
Shao An was stunned. He asked in surprise, “Sir, what’s the rush?”
“You have to go to the kindergarten today to give the award to Qiu Tong’s son. You have no idea how much that child resembles you!”
“I can help you adjust your schedule and flight. You can leave after you give out the prize…”
“Or, just give me half an hour. I’ll go back and take a picture for you to see!”
Shao An felt some regret. He should have secretly taken a few photos of Qiu Xingyuan for Jin Yang. Looking at how much Jin Yang valued Qiu Tong, he would definitely be very happy.
Besides, although he believed in the nobility of Jin Yang’s character, the child was so similar to him that he had to wonder if they were related by blood…
Jin Yang narrowed his eyes at Shao An’s nagging. He placed the glass cup on the coffee table and looked up with a murderous gaze.
“My order is to return to the capital immediately.”
“Are you trying to disobey my orders? Do you even know what delaying by half a minute would mean?”
Shao An was stunned by his aura and immediately nodded respectfully. “Yes Sir, your orders are to be obeyed! I’ll do it immediately!”
He turned and left the villa, hurriedly changing the day’s itinerary. On the way, he took out his phone and called Mayor Shen. “President Jin Yang has something to attend to in the capital. The awards segment for today is canceled..”
