Chapter 77: Watching Daddy and Mommy Kiss

~7 min read 1,390 words

Jiang Baobao suddenly realized that she had never thought about this question before.

The atmosphere suddenly fell into silence.

Yanbao blinked his eyes, looking at this one, then looking at that one, his fingers nervously picking at the hem of his clothes.

Why had Daddy and Mommy both stopped talking?

Had he said something wrong...

Yanbao felt like he had messed something up, and he tried hard to turn his little head, wanting to find a topic of conversation.

As a result, he saw a few physical education teachers not far away setting up the playground, and he suddenly tugged on Jiang Baobao, saying with some excitement: "Mommy! I signed up for quite a few events! Will you and Daddy cheer for me in a little while?"

"Sure!" Jiang Baobao instantly perked up and asked curiously: "What events did you sign up for, baby?"

Yanbao immediately counted on his little fingers: "There's jump rope, there's running, and there's frog jumping!"

"So many!" Jiang Baobao hadn't expected the little guy to be so energetic, and her mood became excited along with him.

Li Beijue, however, said with concern: "There are too many events, your body won't be able to take it. Pick the one you like the most, and don't participate in the others."

Upon hearing this, Yanbao was stunned; the excited look on his little face instantly faded quite a bit, and his expression became somewhat hesitant.

These were all events he liked, and he didn't want to give up any of them...

But Daddy was also doing it for his own good...

"Mommy... why don't you help me pick one?" Yanbao couldn't make up his mind and asked Jiang Baobao beside him tentatively.

When he looked up, however, he saw her staring at Li Beijue with a look of displeasure.

Oh no!

Were Daddy and Mommy going to argue again?

Alarm bells rang in Yanbao's heart, and before he could even speak, he heard Jiang Baobao question: "Do you have to use this commanding tone to talk to Yanbao?"

Jiang Baobao had flared up the moment she heard Li Beijue speak just now, and she couldn't endure it for even a second.

No wonder Yanbao had such a personality.

Where was this being obedient?

It was simply being submissive!

Li Beijue's face also turned black instantly, and his fingers clenched tightly.

Was this woman getting too big for her boots today?

What right did she have to manage him?

"I have always spoken like this; if you can't stand it, you can leave."

Li Beijue replied coldly, not wanting to argue with Jiang Baobao in front of so many people.

Yanbao also hurriedly pulled on Jiang Baobao's hand and urged: "Mommy! Daddy is concerned about my health..."

"I know."

Jiang Baobao interrupted Yanbao's words, took a deep breath, and forcibly suppressed her anger.

She couldn't argue.

She was here today to make Yanbao happy.

She didn't have the time to lock horns with Li Beijue!

Thinking this, Jiang Baobao held Yanbao's little hand and said: "Yanbao, Mommy is also worried that you'll be too tired. You can participate in all three events, but you have to promise Mommy that as soon as you feel unwell, we will stop halfway. You don't necessarily have to win a place; participation is what matters. As long as you feel happy, is that okay?"

"Mm-hmm!" Upon hearing this, Yanbao's big eyes instantly lit up, and he nodded repeatedly in happiness.

After listening, Li Beijue's gaze flickered for a moment, and he looked at Jiang Baobao thoughtfully.

Although he didn't want to admit it, Yanbao was clearly more receptive to Jiang Baobao's way of communicating.

Could it be... that he was the one who was wrong?

Realizing what he was thinking, a flash of displeasure suddenly crossed the bottom of Li Beijue's eyes.

But he did not stop them.

Soon, the sports meet began.

After a simple opening ceremony, the first event was the 50-meter shuttle run that Yanbao was participating in.

Jiang Baobao ran down from the stairs and stood on the outermost circle of the playground.

Watching the spirited little guy on the track, she only felt her heart being filled to the brim.

"Bang!"

The starting gun went off.

All the children zoomed out in a flash!

"Yanbao! Go for it!"

Like the other parents, Jiang Baobao cheered loudly for her baby, watching him run toward the finish line like a little rocket.

Li Beijue did not go down; his eyes followed the little guy running in first place the whole time, with undisguised surprise on his face.

He had never seen the little guy look so energetic.

In his impression, Yanbao was always very well-behaved and obedient, but his body was somewhat weak.

But ever since Jiang Baobao came...

Li Beijue's expression suddenly turned stern, realizing that his train of thought had gone off track again.

She was only there to maintain Yanbao's mood!

She was not worthy of being Yanbao's mommy at all!

Li Beijue closed his eyes, and when he came back to his senses, he heard the sound of the gun signaling the end of the race.

Jiang Baobao ran toward Yanbao without a word and scooped him up.

"Baby! You are too amazing! You actually ran in first place!"

Jiang Baobao's face was written with pride as she gave Yanbao's flushed little cheeks a forceful kiss.

The two of them returned to their seats hand in hand, and Jiang Baobao hurriedly took out the fruit and vegetable juice she had prepared long ago.

"Daddy, I ran in first place."

Yanbao's expression was somewhat excited, his eyes shining brightly as he reported his achievement to Li Beijue.

"Mm, you were great; you really surprised Daddy." A rare trace of a smile appeared on Li Beijue's face as he dotingly pinched Yanbao's little cheek.

Jiang Baobao felt a bit of heartache seeing how tired he was from running just now, so she hurriedly brought the juice to the little guy's lips: "Talk about it later, come on, drink some juice first!"

Yanbao nodded obediently and was submissively fed half a cup of juice.

At first glance, the three of them really looked like a harmonious family of three.

After resting for a while, it was time for the other events.

Yanbao had used up all his strength running earlier, so he regrettably did not place in the subsequent competitions.

However, he had a lot of fun.

The morning's competitions ended quickly, and the school had specially prepared a venue in the garden behind the teaching building where parents could bring their children for a picnic.

Jiang Baobao had heard Yanbao mention it yesterday, so she had made a pile of delicious food early in the morning, found a spot with Yanbao, spread out the picnic mat, and took out all the food she had brought.

"Wow! Mommy! How did you prepare so many delicious things?"

Yanbao hadn't expected Jiang Baobao to have prepared so much, and his little expression was full of excitement.

His voice also attracted the attention of other children, who all looked over curiously and let out exclamations of wonder as well.

Jiang Baobao had made many snacks and treats, all in the shapes of cute little animals.

Even the apples were cut into the shape of little rabbits.

Besides that, there were Panda Rice Balls, heart-shaped fried eggs...

Apart from "cute," there were no other words to describe them.

"Wow! Auntie, you're so amazing! My mommy doesn't know how to make such pretty cookies!" a little girl said, looking at the beautifully packaged little cookies with longing.

Jiang Baobao smiled, picked up a small bag at random, and placed it into the little girl's hand.

"Then Auntie will give this to you; I hope you can be good friends with Yanbao at kindergarten from now on."

"Okay! Thank you, Auntie!"

The little girl was overjoyed and agreed immediately.

"Auntie! I want some too!"

Seeing this, the other children also flocked over, and each of them received cute cookies from Jiang Baobao.

They also cast envious glances at Yanbao, saying they wanted to be good friends with him.

Jiang Baobao smiled happily, suddenly feeling much more at ease.

Most children are simple-minded.

This way, no one should bully Yanbao anymore...

She could finally rest easy!
