"Whether I'm her biological father or not is none of your business. The contract is signed. Ye Tuan Tuan, I'm warning you, you'd better see him less. Look at him, he looks so fierce, clearly not a good person!" Ling Che now completely detested Gu Yunting.
Gu Yunting wanted to ask more, but Ling Che had already hoisted Ye Tuan Tuan onto his shoulder and strode out. Ye Tuan Tuan shrieked and hit Ling Che, "Ling Che, you big bad wolf, I ate too much. If you carry me like this, I'll throw up on you."
Ling Che quickly steadied her. Ye Tuan Tuan waved goodbye to Gu Yunting.
"Uncle Gu, remember to add me back on WeChat!" Ye Tuan Tuan yelled hoarsely before exiting.
Gu Yunting walked them to the elevator. Ling Che didn't want to spare him another glance and almost crushed the button. The doors finally closed.
Gu Yunting lowered his head, lost in thought. Who was Tuan Tuan's father? Had Ye Wan ever married?
When Ye Wan returned home that evening, Xiao Yuan Yuan immediately ran to her, wanting to be held. Ye Wan changed out of her heels and scooped up the child, asking him what he had done that day. Yuan Yuan shook his cute little head and lisped about his day at home.
"Zi'er, should we find a kindergarten for Yuan Yuan? He can't just play at home every day. Look at Hei Xiong, he's so clumsy. We don't want Yuan Yuan to turn out clumsy too," Ling Che suggested.
Hei Xiong, who was nearby, lowered his head and humbly fiddled with his fingers.
"Don't talk nonsense. Hei Xiong isn't clumsy; he's just adorable. But you're right, we should find a kindergarten for Yuan Yuan." Ye Wan felt that since they didn't know how long they would be staying, it would be best to find a school for the child.
"And Tuan Tuan needs to go to school too." Ye Wan looked towards her daughter's room. The girl hadn't even come out to see them since returning.
This girl was truly becoming more unruly by the day.
"School? What school? Mom, I'm very busy. I don't have time to waste at school!" As soon as Ye Tuan Tuan heard about going to school, she immediately jumped out, vehemently objecting. She absolutely refused to sit with a bunch of brats every day, watching them snivel and cry.
She might go mad.
"You're at the perfect age for primary school. You refused kindergarten, and from now on, you won't have a choice. You'll go whether you like it or not. I'll find a school and enroll you right now!" Ye Wan knew her daughter was brilliant, with an IQ of two hundred. But precisely because of this, she should experience what ordinary children were like and make more friends. Otherwise, she truly worried that her daughter's intelligence might one day become a hindrance rather than a gift.
"I don't want to go, Mom, please! I really can't be with a bunch of low-IQ brats, I'll go crazy," Ye Tuan Tuan continued to implore her mother.
But this time, Ye Wan was resolute and wouldn't budge. Ye Tuan Tuan tried to get Ling Che to help her. Seeing Ye Wan's stern expression, Ling Che didn't dare to intervene. He quickly retreated to his room and closed the door, leaving the battlefield to the mother and daughter.
In the end, Ye Tuan Tuan had no choice but to compromise. She stormed back to her room, then had a change of heart. She'd go to school, but she could skip classes. That way, she could still see Uncle Gu. It was a win-win situation.
Ye Wan was unaware of her daughter's scheme. However, when she agreed to go to school during dinner, Ye Wan felt something was amiss. The child was full of cunning ideas, and even as a mother, she couldn't always guard against them.
Having a daughter with too high an IQ was also a troublesome matter.
