Chapter 396: Chapter 396: Mom Will Pay the Bill for You

During the holidays, the kids’ phone calls are the most frequent, sticky and sappy. Sometimes, they’ve just finished playing together in the neighborhood in the morning, yet in the afternoon they’re already calling again.

The good news is that the quartet all got into First High School, so they can happily go to school together again.

There’s no need to mention Yue Qingqing’s city-topping, heaven-defying achievement.

Qu Ruorui and Wei Rong also made it without any surprises.

Jun Feifei, purely relying on her family’s wealth, had Lan Li both scolding her and demanding money from her dad, desperately cramming her daughter into First High.

Upon hearing the news, Feifei jumped three feet high.

She couldn’t help but cheer.

Lan Li, frustrated, said, "Do you like them that much? What’s so great about them?"

Feifei thought to herself, you wouldn’t understand.

Being with the fairy ensures one’s life safety.

Feifei, having received advanced education since elementary school, turned out to be a peculiar theist.

After witnessing so many bizarre events, it was really too difficult for her to believe in science anymore.

For the kids heading to middle school, this holiday was joyful, devoid of burdensome summer homework and filled with anticipation for the new school.

Of course, this didn’t include those who performed poorly on their exams, like Yue Xiaohu.

Now, he was forced by Yue Xingxing to study at the desk every day.

The sister was way stricter than the teachers in Daye Village.

Yue Xiaohu, used to running wild, was teary-eyed every day and would stretch out his hand for help upon seeing Yue Qingqing.

"Sister Qingqing, save me!"

Yue Qingqing, upon looking at his workbook, immediately understood why so many parents have suffered strokes from anger while tutoring their children.

Yue Xiaohu managed to get wrong the questions Xingxing had just explained by only changing the numbers inside.

And each time, he made different mistakes.

Yue Qingqing pressed her forehead, "Sister Xingxing, keep it up!"

Yue Xingxing stared at Yue Xiaohu coldly, "Did you hear that? Redo it!"

Yue Xiaohu felt utterly hopeless about this loveless world.

Yue Xiaohu had his own troubles, but Yue Jiandong, as an adult, had his own grown-up worries.

The main one was still about his little princess.

That boy with the surname Yan supposedly went abroad to study with his dad, but the Jiang boy, who is almost in his third year of high school, doesn’t think about prioritizing his studies and keeps scheming to whisk his treasure of a daughter away to restaurants.

It’s infuriating, ugh...

After consuming the meal Yue Qingqing brought back, Yue Jiandong held his stomach, deep in thought and regret.

"Qingqing, how about going to play at your Dad’s department store tomorrow?" Better than letting that boy take you away again.

Yue Qingqing happily agreed, "Sure."

Ever since her dad opened the store, Yue Qingqing occasionally spent her weekends there.

Many shop owners watched the little girl grow up, often asking the Yue family when they would bring their beautiful daughter again.

Some even joked about wanting to steal her back home to raise.

That day, as Yue Qingqing arrived at the store, many familiar shopkeepers greeted her.

"Qingqing has grown up so much, becoming prettier and prettier!"

"Heard she’s the city’s number one too. Our Qingqing, if she were in the past, would definitely be a top scholar candidate."

"Auntie here just got some new things in, do you like them? They’re for you."

The overwhelming enthusiasm made Yue Qingqing somewhat unable to cope, hastily waving her hands to refuse those eager to give her things.

"Thanks, uncles and aunties, but my parents don’t let me take things from others."

Zhang Ying, holding her daughter’s hand, listened to the praise with joy, humble on the outside but inside she felt the compliments weren’t enough.

Her precious daughter is one in a million in this world.

"Director Zhang, here’s the account statements for this quarter..." The secretary came running, and Zhang Ying could only reluctantly decide to listen to fewer praises,

"Baby, Mommy has to work now, go wander around. If you see anything tasty or fun, just grab it and take it to the counter on the first floor, Mommy will pay for you."

Yue Qingqing, agreeable as ever, planted a big kiss on Zhang Ying’s cheek.

"Thanks, Mom!"
