Chapter 1849: Fu Yan Cheng Did Not Answer; He Had No Authority Over This Matter

~4 min read 714 words

Fu Yan Cheng first set down the two children he was holding in his arms, then steadied the child sitting on his neck; that child shifted from straddling sideways to sitting front-and-back on one shoulder, laughing and shouting, "Little Uncle, hurry up and get on."

Then the younger brother, who had just come out of kindergarten, straddled the man's other shoulder; he shouted with a proud air, "So high! I can see Teacher Zhang."

Liu Chuxue quickly stood behind Fu Yan Cheng: "You two stay put and don't move around."

Shi Tou and Fu Bao spoke at once: "Second Sister/Mom, we won't move around."

They had sat like this before, but only in the courtyard, at most as far as the public phone booth at the alley entrance; today they had to walk to the roadside ahead, and Liu Chuxue feared they would get restless.

Actually, for Fu Yan Cheng, as long as they didn't play around up there, it was no problem at all.

He picked up Lebao and Kangbao and positioned them so they pressed down on the legs of Shi Tou and Fu Bao, who were straddling his shoulders, adding an extra layer of security.

Fu Yan Cheng was tall and broad; aside from looking dangerous, there was no need to worry about his strength.

Soon, two were sitting on his shoulders and two were held in his arms, with Liu Chuxue following behind, ready to provide protection at any moment.

She had said before that it was unsafe, but the little ones had each time assured her repeatedly that they wouldn't play around up there; plus, since they met so rarely, Fu Yan Cheng was willing to indulge them, and Liu Chuxue had no choice but to be the one providing protection every time.

Now, when other children saw them sitting like this, they either gasped in amazement or demanded to sit high too.

In an instant, many children were sitting on their parents' necks today; those who couldn't get on were unhappy, and things quickly got chaotic.

Seeing the situation, Liu Chuxue urged, "Hurry up and go."

The little ones paid no heed to their mom/Second Sister's worry and were chatting away: "Lebao, why didn't you go to kindergarten?"

Lebao replied in a clear voice: "Dad took us back to the military dependents' compound; Uncle Song helped us ask the teacher for leave."

Hearing they were going back to the military compound, Shi Tou said: "Second Sister, Brother-in-law, I want to go back with you too."

Fu Yan Cheng did not answer; he had no authority over this matter.

Seeing his brother-in-law not speaking, Shi Tou tilted his head, trying to look at Fu Yan Cheng's face, but then heard Fu Yan Cheng say: "Sit properly and don't move."

Shi Tou immediately stopped his movements, turned his head, and looked at Liu Chuxue following behind: "Second Sister, I want to go back to the military dependents' compound with you; I've never been there before."

Liu Chuxue did not agree directly: "You need to talk to Mom about this; only if she agrees can it happen. I have no authority over this."

Hearing this, Shi Tou said: "Then I'll tell Mom when we get home."

Hearing that Little Uncle wanted to go back to the military dependents' compound, Fu Bao quickly began introducing things to him: "Little Uncle, Uncle Shen next door has a little baby who is very good-looking; we'll take you to see him."

Lebao thought of what Dad had said: "Little Uncle, Dad said there's an ice rink at the small square too; he'll find someone to make us an ice sled, and we'll all go play together."

Hearing this, Little Shi Tou wanted to go even more.

When the group reached the roadside, Fu Yan Cheng asked Liu Chuxue to help take down the two little ones from his shoulders first, then he set the two in his arms down on the ground.

After stretching his stiff body, he opened the car door: "Get in; let's go home."

The little ones quickly climbed into the car.

Once seated firmly, Shi Tou asked: "Why didn't we bring Zhui Feng?"

Lebao answered: "Mom said she was afraid it would scare the children, so we didn't bring Zhui Feng."
