Chapter 76

Chapter 76

Shen Wei had never seen such a father who would go so far just to argue.

Even when he saw the injury on the child's body, he was only angry for a moment.

But it was convenient for her.

So both sets of parents signed an agreement to relinquish custody. Shen Wei took these two documents, first took the child to the hospital for a medical examination, then went to a welfare institution for an assessment, and also called in the most renowned lawyer to help her fight this case.

It took less than a month for her to obtain custody of Mu Zhixing.

The child's father was also big-hearted; he took the money and left, without even thinking to go back with Shen Wei to see where she would take the child.

At the very least, he should have known where Shen Wei would take the child.

Mu Zhixing was nervously playing with the hem of her clothes.

Soon they arrived at the Starry Sky Kindergarten.

Shen Wei introduced her to Uncle Li, the gatekeeper.

Uncle Li is usually not very talkative or smiley, but he is very patient and gentle with children. Many children like to cling to him and learn his magical martial arts skills with the staff.

They kept calling him "Master, Master".

Uncle Li earned some money and got himself a glowing metal prosthetic leg.

This had an irresistible attraction for the children.

So cool.

And so, after spending a long time here, Uncle Li's temperament gradually became more gentle.

But towards outsiders, he remained merciless.

Shen Wei brought Mu Zhixing back.

In some classes, the children were reciting in clear, melodious voices, chanting the Thousand Character Classic.

Shen Wei took Mu Zhixing from room to room, greeting everyone.

Mu Zhixing was a little timid and fearful. But she could feel that the people here had no malice towards her.

They would also softly introduce her, saying her name was Mu Zhixing.

And that due to her family circumstances, she would be staying here.

Currently, the only other residents were Doctor Lu, Uncle Li, and He Lingfeng.

And now a little girl had been added.

Fortunately, the kindergarten had a large area, so there was no shortage of rooms.

Mu Zhixing had her own independent little room.

Shen Wei had someone prepare it for her. It was in a pink color that girls love.

It had a desk, a schoolbag, children's cosmetics, and all kinds of little dolls.

The most special arrangement was that she was given many new notebooks and painting brushes.

Mu Zhixing stared at everything, enraptured - it was the room of her dreams.

Shen Wei asked, "Do you like it? From now on, you'll live here, and consider this your home!"

Mu Zhixing nodded.

Shen Wei called over He Lingfeng. In the novel, the two of them were good friends.

Now that they had met so early, they would definitely greet each other.

Mu Zhixing was a year older than He Lingfeng, but she looked even more timid.

He even found the child a small sketchpad and let her draw and play with it.

The child held the brush preciously.

At this moment, Qi Zhong was in a prolific period of creation.

He soon became immersed in his work again, losing track of time as he often did.

When he finally twisted his stiff neck and glanced at his watch, three hours had passed.

Suddenly remembering the child, he turned his head and was startled to find the little girl staring unblinkingly at the canvas.

"You didn't leave?" he asked in surprise.

"Mm-hmm," the child obediently replied.

He had been painting for hours on end.

Not just children, even professional artists might not be able to sit there silently for so long without making any noise.

This child's obedience was almost heartbreaking.

Teacher Qi Zhong asked, "Do you like painting?"

"Mm-hmm," the child nodded vigorously.

Qi Zhong was fond of children who enjoyed painting. "So what did you draw just now?"

Teacher Qi Zhong looked over and saw that it was still a blank sheet of paper.

Kids, it doesn't matter if they scribble. The important thing is to start doing it! He said, "How about this, you help me add to the painting."

He meant for the child to draw on his artwork.

Such a thing had never happened before in kindergarten, and likely never would again.

He had been working on his painting draft for over a month now.

A work of this level could easily sell for tens of thousands in the past.

And artists are usually exceptionally protective of their drafts, not allowing anyone to touch them.

But at this moment, for some reason, Teacher Qi Zhong actually let Mu Zhixing draw on it.

But the little one was timid and immediately shook his head no.

Teacher Qi Zhong didn't force him, saying, "Alright, if you want to paint in the future, come to me!"

He was quite satisfied with this art studio.

Not only did it have all kinds of art materials and tools, but it was also very quiet.

Having a quiet place in a kindergarten was actually quite rare.

So he was grateful for what Shen Wei had done for him.

Mu Zhixing's eyes shone with an unbelievable light: "Really? I really can?"

It was just one sentence, but it made the child jump for joy.

It was the first time Teacher Qi Zhong saw Mu Zhixing show this emotion.

Through this child, he vaguely saw his former self, feeling happy just from painting.

He said, "Of course you can."

The little one was very happy, his whole face smiling.

After a while, a rumbling sound could be heard coming from the baby's stomach.

Children get hungry faster, so the kindergarten would organize some afternoon snacks.

Mu Zhixing's face turned red, and Teacher Qi Zhong took his hand: "Let's go to the cafeteria to get you something to eat."
