The next day, morning sunlight streamed through the floor-to-ceiling glass window, Chi Enen finished her wash-up, changed her clothes, and went downstairs.
She had been busy until 2 AM last night and got up again at eight in the morning, her whole being exuding a sense of fatigue.
Just as she got downstairs.
She saw someone who looked even more exhausted than herâBaby Chi seemed like he hadnât slept all night, with dark circles vaguely showing under his big eyes, slightly puffy.
But it didnât affect his pretty little face; on the contrary, the little puffiness made his eyes less sharp, giving him a round, cute appearance.
When Baby Chi just saw Chi Enen coming down, he seemed a little uneasy, pouted his lips, and turned his face to the side.
Not two seconds later, he suddenly turned back, seemingly having thought for a long time to make this decision, took a deep breath, and told Chi Enen, âWoman, Iâll go to school with Uncle Huo today, Iâve already talked to Uncle Huo.â
âYou want to go to school?â Chi Enen didnât expect him to compromise so quickly; she thought he would resist until she forcibly sent him off.
Baby Chiâs pink lips pouted imperceptibly, suppressing his grievance, âDidnât you want me to go to school? I thought about it all night, and I agreed to go to school and study.â
After speaking, he jumped up from the dining table chair, picked up the backpack that was prepared to the side, and slung it on his back, saying without even looking at Chi Enen, âUncle Huo is waiting outside for me, Iâve already had breakfast, if I donât go, Iâll be late. Iâm leaving first.â
Chi Enen looked at his desolate little back and still couldnât bear it, so she called him, âWait.â
Baby Chi suddenly turned his head back, eyes filled with hope, thinking he had concealed it well, but Chi Enen saw through it.
It turned out to be a ploy of self-pityâ¦
Chi Enen suppressed the urge to laugh, returned the iPad she had confiscated before, âHere you go. You can only play for two hours a day. Iâve only charged it for two hours. Manage your time wisely.â
Baby Chi thought she finally softened and had a change of heart, not forcing him to go to school. But it turned out she only gave him the iPad back, and even further thwarted his plan by only charging it enough for two hoursâ use. His strategy failed, and he instantly drooped like an eggplant hit by frost, reluctantly taking the iPad from Chi Enen, using the same big, droopy eyes like a certain person, âChi Enen, Iâm leaving now.â
âMm.â
âIâm going to school.â
âMm.â
âI wonât be back until the afternoon.â
âMm.â
âIf Nuonuo wakes up and doesnât see me, I donât know if sheâll cry. Otherwise, how about letting Nuonuo be in the same class with me?â
Chi Enen decisively refused, âSheâs only a little over one year old, she canât go to school yet. Donât worry, Butler Huo and your little uncle will take good care of her. When she cries a bit and knows you went to school, she wonât cry.â
Baby Chiâs last card was mercilessly played back, leaving him with nothing to do, his fair handsome little face flushed red, frowning as he looked at Chi Enen, âWoman, Iâm going to school!â
Those eight words were biting.
Chi Enen effortlessly dealt with it, even helped him put the iPad in his backpack, zipped it up, patted his backpack calmly, âGo on then.â
Baby Chi, ââ¦â
Chi Enen completely dismissed his little cunning scheme, and Baby Chi resigned himself to fate, walking away with constant backward glances.
