Wandering among the heavens, learning has no end.

"So you can't let your child go to our place by himself."

Little Orange is only a few years old. If she gets into a car accident or encounters human traffickers on the road... whatever the accident, imagine how heartbroken her parents would be.

You can't joke around with children like that...

In short, Mr. Qin, if you really want Xiao Chengzi to meet my Ling Xiao, just give me a call beforehand, and we'll arrange a time and place so the children can meet.

As soon as Ling Heping finished speaking...

Mr. Qin was so angry that his face turned red.

My fists have clenched unconsciously.

"Officer Ling, don't worry, they won't bother your family anymore."

“Oh, Mr. Qin, that’s not what I meant. It’s still good for the children to get to know each other.”

"No need, Officer Ling. If there's nothing else, I have some things to attend to, so I'll hang up now."

"Okay, okay."

The two quickly hung up the phone.

Ling Heping smiled.

This can't even handle Chen Ting?

If this still can't be resolved, Ling Heping will accept it; it just means that this Mr. Qin is truly a coward.

Mr. Qin immediately called Chen Ting and asked her to take the child back.

During the phone call, Mr. Qin's tone and words were very unpleasant.

This gave Chen Ting a bad feeling.

Chen Ting arrived at 202, ready to take Xiao Chengzi back.

Ji Yuan and Li Jianjian also saw this 'lady' again.

Ji Yuan looked at Li Jianjian beside him and deliberately asked, "Jianjian, did you know that senior students at our school don't have Saturdays off?"

"Of course I know. My older brother and younger brother are both senior high school students. My older brother, younger brother, and I are family. How could I not know?"

"That's true, our family definitely knows. Those whose children don't attend our school probably don't know..."

Chen Ting sensed a strong sense of malice.

He picked up Little Orange and quickly left.

As I left, I could still hear some of Xiao Chengzi's voice.

"Mom, aren't we going to go find my brother?"

"..."

Watching Chen Ting leave with Xiao Chengzi.

Li Jianjian immediately closed the door.

The two exchanged a smile, and Li Jianjian said happily, "That little plague god is finally gone."

"I'm really fed up with my brother's mother and her family of three generations; I don't like any of them."

"It's not your fault, and I don't like it either."

Ji Yuan smiled and said.

……

night.

After Ling Xiao and He Ziqiu returned, they immediately learned about what had happened that day from Li Jianjian.

He Ziqiu exclaimed in surprise, "Ling Xiao's mother is quite ruthless. In order to reclaim her son, she dares to let her young daughter run around outside alone."

"Brother, in the eyes of your mother's family and three generations, you are practically a piece of Tang Monk's flesh."

Li Jianjian looked at Ling Xiao and said.

Ling Xiao was also somewhat speechless.

"Don't worry, after today's incident, your mother and sister should be going back to their home in Singapore."

Ji Yuan spoke up.

"I hope so."

Ling Xiao nodded.

Their whole family now hopes that Chen Ting will leave as soon as possible.

……

the following few days.

Chen Ting and Xiao Chengzi were indeed sent back to Singapore.

When Ji Yuan's family found out, they had a good celebration.

Chen Ting's departure was a tremendous joy for them.

The whole family regarded Chen Ting as a plague.

Chen Ting left.

The whole family felt incredibly refreshed, and their meals tasted even better every day.

Ling Xiao gradually stopped looking so gloomy.

Senior year of high school was already exhausting, but Chen Ting's appearance has only made things more tiring for him lately.

……

Before we knew it, it was January.

The semester is coming to an end. Ji Yuan and the others have been doing well during this time. Without Chen Ting, Ling Xiao's grandmother no longer comes here so often, but she still calls from time to time.

Ling Heping tried his best to appease the other party so as not to bother Ling Xiao.

Over there, the noodle shop business is getting better and better, and the people Li Haichao recruits are becoming more and more capable, making Li Haichao's job easier and easier.

On He Mei's side, the beauty salon is also back on track, and she no longer has to go almost every day without seeing anyone.

Unfortunately, there was no progress in the relationship between Li Haichao and He Mei.

Qi Mingyue and He Ziqiu made no progress either.

He Ziqiu kept avoiding Qi Mingyue's good intentions, and Qi Mingyue sensed it but didn't give up.

If she likes someone, she's prepared to pursue them.

Therefore, she was prepared for a protracted battle.

This prompted He Ziqiu to actually have a chat with her.

He Ziqiu said frankly that he really didn't want to think about dating.

Qi Mingyue told him that it was okay, and that her liking him was her own business.

He Ziqiu had no choice but to speak his mind.

He was just waiting for the college entrance exam to end so he could go to university in another city. Hopefully, that would finally make Qi Mingyue give up on him.

……

201.

That day, the four of them were watching TV in the living room.

Ling Xiao suddenly looked at Li Jianjian and Ji Yuan and said, "I noticed there's a wood carving competition in the city recently. I think you two could participate."

A wood carving competition? Can we even do it?

Li Jianjian became somewhat interested.

"Of course you can! With your two sculpting skills being so good, winning an award will be a piece of cake!"

He Ziqiu immediately spoke up from the side.

"You can give it a try, but I'll pass; I'm afraid I'll steal your gold medal."

Ji Yuan smiled and said.

"Brother, that's too arrogant of you. Even if you don't participate, I might not be able to win the gold medal. Let's participate together."

Li Jianjian immediately said.

She really wanted to participate with Ji Yuan.

"You don't need to fight. This competition has several categories together, including wood carving and painting. You can each participate in wood carving and painting, so you won't fight each other."

Ling Xiao looked at the two of them and said.

“Then I’ll go with you. I’ll participate in the painting competition, and you can participate in the wood carving competition.”

Upon hearing Ling Xiao's words, Ji Yuan nodded and looked at Li Jianjian.

Li Jianjian immediately nodded happily: "Okay, when is the competition?"

"Don't worry, it will be during winter break."

Ling Xiao spoke up.

"I'll search for this competition online and learn more about it first."

Ji Yuan got up and prepared to go back.

"I'll go as well."

Li Jianjian immediately followed.

The two went to Ji Yuan's room, turned on the computer, and searched for the match that Ling Xiao had mentioned.

P.S.: By the way, are there any readers who don't know where "Singapore" refers to?

Xingzhou refers to Singapore.

What will I write about in the next world?

I personally want to write about Lotus Tower. I finished watching Lotus Tower a couple of days ago, and it was really good and very enjoyable, so I'm thinking of writing about it.

If you haven't seen it, I highly recommend you check it out.

As I mentioned before about Life of Pi, the two worlds are quite similar, so I wanted to write something different first, like Lotus Tower, before moving on to Life of Pi.
