Chapter 52: Brother Can’t Be Too Perfect

Cheng Yang couldn’t continue watching. He walked over and helped Xiao Ying put it on.

Xiao Ying hugged his neck and said, “Brother, can I not go to school?”

Cheng Yang patted Xiao Ying’s butt and said sternly, “No.”

He could spoil Xiao Ying for everything else, but not when it came to his principles.

Xiao Ying was only acting cute and did not intend to actually skip school.

After being spanked by Cheng Yang, she blushed and became much more awake.

She nudged Cheng Yang and said that she would do it herself.

Seeing that Xiao Ying was awake, Cheng Yang went out.

When Xiao Ying was done getting ready, she went downstairs and saw that Cheng Yang had just placed breakfast on the table.

Xiao Ying exclaimed in surprise, “Wow! Brother is awesome! You even know how to cook!”

Cheng Yang put the plate on the table and said calmly, “You’re mistaken. This was made by the cook.”

Xiao Ying swallowed her words.

Okay then.

Cheng Yang didn’t look like he would know how to cook anyway.

Cheng Yang looked at Xiao Ying and asked, “What, are you disappointed?”

Xiao Ying shook her head vigorously. “No, if Brother knows how to do everything, that would be such a blow to everyone else.”

After both of them finished breakfast, Cheng Yang drove Xiao Ying to school.

Xiao Ying walked into the campus. As she walked, she recalled that she should be in fifth grade this year.

Which class was she in again?

It had been too long, and she had completely forgotten.

Coincidentally, a girl who looked very familiar grabbed Xiao Ying’s arm intimately and said, “Xiao Ying, why didn’t you respond when I called out to you before?”

Xiao Ying smiled apologetically and said, “I didn’t hear you just now.”

The little girl quickly forgave Xiao Ying and said, “I haven’t seen you in so many days. The teacher said that you were on leave. What have you been up to?”

Before Xiao Ying’s tenth birthday, the Xiao couple had indeed applied for leave for her. After everything that happened, they had forgotten about this matter.

Naturally, they did not help Xiao Ying cancel her leave, so everyone assumed Xiao Ying had been on leave until now.

Xiao Ying did not say much, just that there were some issues at home.

The little girl was carefree and quickly forgot about it.

When she reached the door, Xiao Ying looked at the door number: fifth grade class one.

Great, she memorized it. All she needed was her seat now.

Xiao Ying pulled the girl back and asked in embarrassment, “Where did I sit again?”

Initially, she was worried that the little girl would overthink. Unexpectedly, she laughed and said, “I thought that I was the only one who would forget my seat. Last time, my mother took me on a trip for a few days. After I returned, I even forgot which class I was in, haha.”

Very good. Very powerful.

Xiao Ying suppressed her laughter and sat down.

Looking at the girl’s seat, she suddenly remembered her name: Shen Meijia.

When she was young, they had a close relationship. However, later on, because Shen Meijia had defended Xiao Ying, Xiao Ruoxuan did not like her, so Xiao Ying also slowly distanced herself from her.

Later, Shen Meijia was expelled for stealing.

There must’ve been something fishy about that matter. Xiao Ying recalled the friendship she had lost when she was young and decided she needed to grasp it tightly in this lifetime. She also had to help Shen Meijia get through the incident where she was framed.

Seeing Shen Meijia look over, Xiao Ying smiled sweetly at her.

Shen Meijia felt that Xiao Ying was exceptionally enthusiastic today. Although she did not know why, she liked Xiao Ying like this.

She smiled back.

As the bell rang, the teacher entered the classroom.

This class was taught by their homeroom teacher, the Chinese teacher.

Xiao Ying looked out of the window in a daze, feeling a little bored. It really didn’t feel good to accompany children attending elementary school.

The Chinese teacher, Liu Meifeng, who was standing on the podium, saw the absent-minded Xiao Ying and a hint of displeasure flashed across her eyes.

She shouted, “Xiao Ying, stand up and recite “Moored at Guazhou”.”

Xiao Ying slowly stood up when she heard her name.

Looking at the textbook, it was clear that she had yet to learn this ancient poem.
