Chapter 225: Let Me Play with Your Kid for a Bit

lass had already left school. As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw Zhuo Yu'an standing in the corridor outside the classroom with his backpack on. He cursed under his breath and sprang from his chair...Several times in a row, the children guessed wrong, and they cried out in frustration. He, however, laughed heartily.

"Left hand or right hand" he asked again.

Shu Xiaohe blinked her bright, sparkling eyes. "Right side!"

Shu Xiaonian seemed to think for a moment, then this time she didn't say the same thing as her younger sister: "Left!"

Yi Muyang was taken aback. This little imp was too clever. How could he cheat merrily now

For the next few rounds, Shu Xiaonian only spoke after Shu Xiaohua finished, saying the opposite. The siblings would always have one winner, and Yi Muyang was defeated in a row.

"I'm done, I'm done." Keep losing, it's not fun.

Two little children happily laughed and snuggled against him, asking him to continue playing with them.

Shu Tinglan rarely saw the two children laughing so innocently and happily. She was usually very busy, besides taking care of their daily lives, her only energy was to accompany them in some brain-training games or reading picture books. Activities like this, purely for fun, she had never had before.

Although I disapprove of Yimu Yang's cheating, I couldn't bear to break this heartwarming moment.

"I'm done, I'm done. Uncle, please treat us to ice cream." Yi Muyang surrendered with both hands, helpless as his legs couldn't move to break free from the child's embrace.

When he was begging for mercy, the corner of his eye caught sight of Shu Tinglan coming out of the restaurant, and he hurriedly shouted.

"Shu lawyer, please get me ice cream from the fridge, the one at the bottom left."

Two little kids, hearing that there was ice cream to be had, happily circled him. They were still just children, and since their mother didn't usually let them have such treats, this Uncle Yi was really great.

"I've eaten too much tonight, I can't eat anymore, let's go home." She had always been strict with her children.

When she said that, the warm and cheerful atmosphere from before disappeared instantly. The two children hung their heads low, both a little unhappy. But they didn't dare to make a fuss with their mother, knowing that making a scene would be useless; their mother wouldn't give in.

Yi Muyang has a good point: he doesn't meddle or offer unsolicited advice on other people's parenting styles. If another mother chooses not to feed her child, he feels it's unnecessary to intervene so strictly. However, he wouldn't contradict the mother in front of the child.

Just looking at the two little kids with their heads down made me feel a bit sorry for them, so I suggested...

“How about you make a promise with Uncle, that tomorrow you won’t eat any other snacks and will eat more vegetables and fruits. Then Uncle will reward each of you with a box of ice cream. Can you ask your mom if that's okay”

Two little children looked at their mother expectantly. Only then did Shu Tinglan nod.

“Okay, Mom will buy them for you tomorrow.”

"Yay, Mom is the best!" Shuxiaohe's face immediately brightened from gloomy to sunny, while Shuxian smiled shyly.

Yi MuYang sighed in his heart, how could there be such well-behaved children Now the streets are full of bear children who have been spoiled by their parents. They cry and roll around on the ground if they don't buy them toys, but these two little guys just want to eat an ice cream. They don't cry or make a fuss even though they can't get it, which makes him feel a little heartbroken.

This made me feel even more sorry for them, thinking about how they never had a father growing up.

Yi Muyang grew up in a happy family, doted on by his parents and grandparents who treated him like the apple of their eyes. They truly couldn't bear to see these two little kids looking so pitiful.

It was getting late, so he called his personal driver to take them home. As they pulled up to the door, he said with a grin

"Lawyer Shu, your two kids are so adorable. Why don't you lend them to me for a few days" He can't go anywhere anyway since he's "disabled" now. Having two kids around to keep him company would be great.

"That's a pretty thought," Shu Tinglan thought to herself, taking one hand and walking onto the car.

The next day was the kindergarten's June 1st activity. In the morning, children from each class performed programs, and in the afternoon, there was a parent-child sports meet. After all, it was the children's first time celebrating Children's Day, so Shu Tinglan had arranged her schedule for the day early on, taking a whole day off to participate in the activities.

The two little children were so beautiful. They performed on stage and were the most eye-catching among all the classmates. Several parents next to them were praising them in low voices, and Shu Tinglan felt happy listening to it.

The children performed very seriously on stage. Shu Tinglan was holding her phone and recording the whole time. As she recorded, a sour feeling welled up in her nose, and a layer of mist appeared in her eyes. It was a mixture of happiness, gratitude, and regret; she didn't know how to describe this complex feeling at the moment.

Mom is gone, and all her joy can no longer be shared with anyone.

In the afternoon’s parent-child sports meet, Shu Tinglan attended with her two children alone, finding it quite a strain. Especially during team events for families, while other children had both parents accompanying them, hers was the only family with just one adult. When several events required strength, which males usually found easier to complete, the two little ones kept calling out “Mom, cheer up! Mom, cheer up!” But even though she put in her best effort, she ended up losing. When the children saw their classmates receiving awards, and a family standing on the podium collecting the prize, they looked envious. Shu Tinglan felt a pang of pain in her heart, feeling guilty for not being able to give them what they desired.

Since her children were born, she rarely allowed herself to dwell in such negative emotions. She had always been striving forward, trying her best to minimize the impact of their absent father at home, and she always felt she was doing well. But today, under this circumstance, surrounded by other families, with complete sets of three members participating in the competition, her children seemed rather lonely.

There are still a few matches left, she shook off the negative emotions in her heart and began to involve the children more in the competition. She wanted to create an image of optimism and perseverance for the children that would last forever.

At this time, the noisy sports field had quieted down. Everyone's eyes turned to the banner hanging above the grass lawn.

"Shu Xiaonian, Shu Xiaohe, go for it!"

Shu Tinglan followed the banner downwards and saw Yi Muyang sitting in a wheelchair, holding the banner. He smiled brightly at her. The June sunshine was dazzling, and Shu Tinglan felt that Yi Muyang was bathed in golden light at this moment, making her have to squint at him.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Yi Muyang pushed his wheelchair toward them in a very high-profile manner. The two little kids had already surrounded him, very excited.

"How did you get here" Shu Tinglan asked.

"Where are we in the competition" He asked the two children without looking at Shu Tinglan, his head bowed.

"Let's play a game of stacking rings, see who can stack the most on the bottles." Shu Xiaonian pointed to a row of bottles ahead. You have to put the rings onto the bottles, and whoever stacks the most wins.

Mr. Zhu, if you don't come soon, not only will your wife be taken by someone else, but your child will call someone else father.ages at this hour."When will big brother be home""Have you been drinking Should I pick you up"The girl was subtly hinting that it was time for him to go home. After a few seconds, she tried to explain...
