ruthless here

Spring in Beicheng seems to be passing in the blink of an eye.

On Children's Day, the kindergarten arranged a spring outing. Yang Congbai said that we would celebrate the festival together and asked me to take Youyou to his house for dinner in the evening.June [-]st is also Hao Meng's birthday, and we secretly ordered a cake, which moved the girl to such an extent.

Hao Meng was still picking out filters, Xiao Zhang was already in a hurry.

"Should we follow the process or eat directly?"

"No, I haven't made a wish yet!"

"Why do you want to make a wish?" Brother Qiang teased her, "Everyone on Earth knows the wish you want to make. Could something fall from the sky?"

"My structure is so small?!" Hao Meng was very contemptuous, "Manager Yu, my wish is that our project can be launched as scheduled!"

We booed disappointedly.Song Mingyu wailed even more, "It's over, it's over, it won't work if you say it!"

"It doesn't count, this one doesn't count!" I quickly said, "Hao Meng is celebrating the holidays today, so there is no limit to the child's words!"

I coaxed Hao Meng, a big friend, to be very happy, but I didn't expect that the little friend who was really celebrating the festival had a problem.

In the afternoon, the kindergarten teacher called and said that during the spring outing, Yoyo had a dispute with other children and even started fighting.

It's normal for children to push and shove, but Yoyo's good temper is up to me, I'm afraid he's being bullied.After careful questioning, it was said that it was because Xu Wuren's kid had an argument with Ke Ke, and Yoyo stood up for his friend and went up to give him a push.

The teacher also said that Yang Congbai could not get through on the phone, and told me to tell him if I could get in touch with him.

I know this kid from Xu Wuren, he is usually very domineering, and in the description of Yoyo and Keke, he is just like a little villain, but he just likes to get close to Keke.

After hanging up the phone, I was very angry, it doesn't matter if you are Wu Ren or Hei Zhima, why bully us, Ke Ke?

I called Su Zhe right away, and he said that Yang Congbai was undergoing surgery and it was probably coming to an end soon.When I went to their office, Su Zhe was watering the flowers on the windowsill. I saw that there was no one else in the office, so I complained to him.

Su Zhe laughed before he finished listening.

"Yang Keke doesn't need your Bai Youyou to fight against injustices, this little girl is amazing."

He said and began to wrestle with my fingers.

"Last year, I scratched the face of the grandson of Deputy Mayor Zhao's family. On New Year's Day, I knocked out half of the front teeth for the grandson of Secretary Zhang's family in the attached middle school. This baby of Dean Xu's family was also defeated before, but this year he has grown a bit. Hurry up, if we really fight, I guess Coco will suffer a disadvantage..."

"...Wait a minute, whose baby do you think Wuren belongs to?"

"Dean Xu's grandson. Although he is still a deputy now, he is probably going to become a real one soon."

Probably because my complexion was really ugly, Su Zhe comforted me again, "It's okay, but her grandpa is there to protect me."

But Yoyo is not covered by her grandpa!

"Brother, I'm leaving first, I'll go back and write a review for little friend Wu Ren..."

"You are back."

When I turned around, I saw Yang Congbai entering the door.

"The heroine of your family has gone out to fight the world for you again."

Obviously, Su Zhe's words made Yang Congbai nervous, "What happened to Yoyo, Keke?"

"no……"

I told him the story again, and he changed his coat while listening to me.

"It must be that Wu Ren's fault! Yoyo will never take the initiative to fight with others!" I asserted.

"Don't worry," Yang Congbai patted me on the shoulder, "As long as we don't lose."

"..."

Yang Congbai was really not in a hurry.

On the way to kindergarten, he said that he has been tested for a long time.He also shared his experience with me, "You must not blame the child at this time, and let the child know that you are on his side."

Of course I'm on Yoyo's side.

Yoyo is so well-behaved, so obedient, even if he made a move, it must be his last resort.

But it's hard for me to say about cocoa.

The reason for the "records" mentioned by Su Zhe may be that Yang Congbai spoiled her.

"Then it's worth pointing out what kind of child is right and wrong, right? I don't think you can just protect the child blindly. It's okay to ignore such small things now. If something big happens in the future..."

I haven't figured out what will happen when something big happens.

But Yang Congbai had already thought about it.

He said, "Even if she killed someone, I would help her hide the body."

He looked ahead, taking it for granted.

"...Are you kidding me?"

"of course not."

"..."

I am speechless.

In the congestion of the evening rush hour, the air in the car seems to be very stuffy, and this scene seems very strange.

He is indeed different from me.

The orders, rules, and right and wrong that I think should be followed may not be exactly the same in his world.

It's not even necessary to go the same.

I have received so much favor from him that I almost forgot their preciousness.

We met Xu Wuren's father at the gate of the kindergarten.

I had only heard that Xu's father was an elite in the business world, but when I saw him today, he really had an extraordinary aura of superiority.Seeing Yang Congbai, he greeted him very familiarly, "Long time no see!"

Yang Congbai nodded, "Brother."

"The old man praised you again when I came home last week! I said, why didn't you call me for Keke's birthday a while ago? It's your fault!..."

I also heard a general idea from their conversation.At that time, the son of Dean Xu's family abandoned medicine and went to business, which made his father half dead, and Yang Congbai was the "other people's child" that the old man praised endlessly.

While the two were talking, the teacher had already led the three children out.Ke Ke held Yoyo's hand and walked in front with a menacing expression.Youyou followed behind dejectedly, her eyes were on the ground, she refused to look up at me.The kid Wu Ren who was walking at the end was already crying, and his eyelids were still swollen.

I was worried and anxious at first, but when I saw this scene, I still wanted to laugh for no reason.

Xu's father hurriedly pulled his son aside and asked repeatedly what happened.

Yang Congbai also frowned, "Ke Ke, what's going on?"

Keke held Bai Youyou with one hand, pointed at Wu Ren's painted face with the other and said loudly, "People from Xu Wu insisted on dragging me to play on the slide, Yoyo helped me drive him away!"

Yang Congbai didn't comment, but said, "Ke Ke puts his hands down first, it's impolite."

Wu Ren's father laughed dryly, and he patted his son's face, "What a big deal, is it worth crying for?"

But Wu Ren was very wronged, "Yuyou hurt me from falling!"

Yoyo was even more aggrieved, "It hurts even for Keke to be pulled by you!"

Wu Ren was not convinced, "You are not Ke Ke, how do you know!"

Yoyo was not convinced either, "Of course I know that Keke hurts!"

"you're lying!"

"I do not have!"

"You are lying!"

"How do you know I'm lying?!"

"Alright, alright, alright!"

I immediately stopped the Zhuang Zhou debate between the two young men, when Ke Ke suddenly yelled, "It hurts me to be pulled by you!"

I was so distressed, I quickly squatted down and asked Ke Ke, "Tell uncle what he did to you? Does it still hurt?"

But Yang Congbai ignored her, "Brother, why don't I take Xu Wu to the hospital for a checkup?"

"No need, no need!" Wu Ren's father quickly waved his hand, "If you let the old man know, you don't have to say anything. If you want me to say that the child is tired after playing all day, let's all go back early. It's still a holiday."

After finishing speaking, he smiled and asked me again, "Father Yoyo, do you think so?"

"Yep!"

I quickly stood up and expressed my opinion, "I'll go back and educate Yoyo well, no matter what, I shouldn't do anything..."

"That's right!" He bent down again and asked Ke Ke, "Then Uncle Xu apologizes to Ke Ke, and Ke Ke doesn't get angry, okay?"

It's a pity that Ke Ke gave him a big white eye.

It's embarrassing now.

I looked at Yang Congbai, but Yang Congbai neither spoke nor expressed his opinion.

Wu Ren's father laughed dryly again, he straightened up, and patted Yang Congbai's arm, "Then I'll be leaving first, keep in touch."

"Go slowly." Yang Congbai finally spoke.

As soon as Xu's father and son left, Yoyo suddenly broke free from Keke's hand and threw herself on me.I held him tightly in my arms, as if embracing his grievances.

That grievance is also mine.

I want to tell Yoyo that he is a little hero and my father is very proud of him; but I also want to tell him that my father really can't afford to offend anyone.

Fortunately, my Yoyo is fine, and fortunately little friend Wu Ren is fine.

"Let's go, let's go home and have dinner." Yang Congbai said.

Auntie Fang’s last dish was just out of the pan when we entered the door. It may be because of Lunar New Year’s Day, the meal is very rich.Yang Congbai kept her for dinner, but she said that her son and daughter-in-law were going out for the holidays, and she had to go home to see her grandson, so she was in a hurry to leave.

Before leaving, Aunt Fang asked, "Why is Keke unhappy?"

Yang Congbai smiled, "There was a fight in the kindergarten."

"Oh!" Auntie Fang was overjoyed. She scraped Keke's nose, then looked back at Yoyo, "Is it our Coco beauty who saved the hero?"

Now I am also happy.

After Auntie Fang left, we sat down to eat. I've heard from Sister Li that Auntie Fang cooks good dishes. I tasted it today and it really lived up to its reputation.I was not stingy with compliments in front of her employer, but Yang Congbai just smiled.

Except for me, the other three diners were very quiet.

Youyou lowered her eyes, as if she was waiting for my "education"; Keke had a cold face, as if she was secretly competing with something; Yang Congbai just picked up the food for us without any expression on his face.

I hope he doesn't have a fit, at least not in front of me.Because I don't want to watch other people educate their children, let alone educate my own children in other people's homes.

But obviously Yang Congbai didn't think so.

"Yuyou, thank you for protecting Coco."

Youyou raised her head, her eyes were bright, but she was confused, "Uncle, did I do the right thing?"

"You did the right thing." Yang Congbai said slowly but surely, "Father should be proud of you."

"..."

Hearing his comments, I was speechless.

"But Yoyo, Dad is more afraid that you will be hurt. He is afraid that he will not be able to protect you, so please understand him."

Yang Congbai said to Yoyo, who was only five years old, please understand him.

I have a sore nose, I don't know how much Yoyo can understand.But I am grateful to Yang Congbai, he made me feel that I am not so cowardly.

Yoyo put down his chopsticks, he leaned over and kissed me, "Dad, did I make you sad?"

"……No."

I hold him in my arms, he is such a sensible child, I feel both happy and sad.But at this moment, there was only a "crash", and it was Ke Ke who dropped his chopsticks.

"Father! Xu Wuren bullied me!"

Even Yang Congbai was caught off guard, "Ke Ke..."

"Xu Wu's teasing me is so painful!" The more she spoke, the more excited she became, she raised her hand and knocked over the juice, "You don't care about me at all!"

Yang Congbai still tried to reason with her, "Of course Dad cares about you."

"You didn't! You lied!"

I picked up the chopsticks in a hurry, and hurriedly picked up the cup to wipe the juice.My mobile phone was originally placed on the table, and the juice that was pushed down by Ke Ke poured it all over the place. I raced against time to remove the case of the mobile phone and tried to clean it, but in a split second, the phone was suddenly snatched away by Ke Ke.

She threw my phone hard.

……what happened? !

"cocoa!"

Yang Cong is on fire.

With a bang, I heard the phone slam on the ground.

Coco turned and ran away.When I was dumbfounded, Yoyo rushed out like a runaway puppy and helped me retrieve the phone.

"dad……"

Yoyo is extremely wronged.

The screen was broken, I quickly checked Yoyo's little hand, but luckily it wasn't scratched.I told him to check on Coco, he nodded, turned around and ran away too.

Leave a quiet and mess, and Yang Congbai and me.

"sorry."

"It's okay, it's okay! Kid, it's just a temper tantrum..."

He looked up and cut me off with just a look.

He said, "I'm sorry for you."

"..."

He's so serious, so downcast, but I can understand him.I am also a single father, and I have had such moments of collapse.This is the powerlessness that can only be produced when facing children, and as a father, I also know it.

And his powerless side was exposed to me without warning, which made me sad.

I went to pour him a glass of water, and he took it and held it in his hand, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Go and have a good time coaxing it. It's a big festival, what's your rivalry with the child?"

"……I do not have."

He is really stubborn enough.

"You haven't, so what are you doing? The child is already wronged enough, and you don't feel bad about it."

"...It was me who spoiled her."

"Yes, Ke Ke is usually domineering, and you are used to it. So you can't feel bad now? What kind of logic do you have..."

"..."

He stopped talking, and I couldn't say anything more.After all, it is his daughter, and as an outsider, I can only talk about this.

I peeled a shrimp for him and put it in a bowl.

"Okay, I'm going to tell you blindly, don't take it to heart. Keke is such a good child, if you don't want me, I can take it away!"

It's nonsense to talk blindly. This is the Northeast dialect I learned from Brother Qiang, but Yang Congbai obviously understands it.

He smiled a little forcedly, but he still ate the shrimp.

I don't think he has much appetite, and I can't eat it myself.We stood up to clean up the dishes, and while he was going to the kitchen, I sneaked another glance at my phone.It’s not enough if the screen is not replaced, and I don’t know how much it will cost to replace the screen.If it's too expensive, it's better to buy a new one. Anyway, this phone has been used for almost three years.

I walked into the kitchen with the last few bowls, Yang Congbai had already thrown away all the leftovers.I secretly cried distressed, it's too wasteful!

He washed the dishes with the tap on, and I dried the dishes he had washed and put them away.The kitchen was very quiet, only the sound of running water and the sound of me putting down the cups, plates and chopsticks.

I'm guessing his dishwasher is a decoration, or maybe he just likes to do dishes.

I glanced back.

"Don't worry, she'll be fine in a while."

"But don't you hate me?"

The movement of his hands paused, "How could that be."

"Then she hates Sailor Moon?"

"..."

"Not even stickers?"

He seemed to be stopped by the question, and he said after a long while, "You don't have to worry about it, who can tell clearly about children's likes and dislikes."

That's right, it's the same as Yoyo saying that he doesn't like durian, obviously he hasn't even eaten it.

After we cleaned up the kitchen, Yang Congbai said that the two children must not be full and they needed to cook some noodles.I went to the door of Ke Ke's room and took a peek. No wonder it was so quiet. The two little ghosts were sitting on the ground and were putting together a huge puzzle.I went back to the kitchen, leaned on the counter and watched Yang Congbai cook the noodles, and thought of the good dishes he threw away, I couldn't help but feel distressed.

The water is boiling, and the noodles are constantly churning in the pot.

He spoke suddenly.

"Yu Fei, I really love Coco."

I was a little surprised, "Of course you love Coco."

But he insisted, "I don't care about her."

"Oh, the child's angry words..."

"You have to believe me."

"Of course I believe you!"

He seemed to be in a bad mood, so I turned down the fire a little and patted him on the back.

"You are Coco's father, and Coco must love you very much."

He lowered his eyes, as if looking at the boiling hot water, a rush of heat.

"Yu Fei," he said, "you have to forgive me."

"..."

He took things too seriously.But yes, he may never have missed anything, let alone encountered any setbacks. Cocoa is probably the biggest problem in his life.

"Of course I choose to forgive!" I put my arms around his shoulders to make him happy, "How about this, do you have an old cell phone that you don't use, give me one! But let me tell you, I don't want a new one ah!"

"..."

Seeing that the noodles were about to come out, I quickly turned off the fire.

Just like what Yang Congbai said, Keke's anger disappeared after eating.She obediently came over and apologized to me, and promised Yang Congbai that she would not lose her temper in the future.

Hey, kid's promise, seriously you lose.

Under my urging, Yang Congbai also pulled back his face and said "I'm sorry." Keke took the opportunity to propose that he didn't want to go to kindergarten tomorrow, but Yang Congbai ruthlessly refused.

When I went to work the next day, Yang Congbai came to see me specially.He brought me a mobile phone, and although he claimed it was old, I was skeptical.But considering his psychological burden, I accepted it unceremoniously.

"Actually, I've wanted to change my phone for a long time," I applauded, "Keko fell well!"

He seemed relieved, relieved.
