Ch72 - Not Bitter

“A man’s head can’t be touched.” Li Zhao rubbed Yan Ting’s hair in return. “I’m living very well now. Don’t sulk about the past. It isn’t worth it.”

Li Zhao continued, “I’m not angry yet you’re still angry. Are you stupid?”

Yan Ting didn’t know if he was stupid or not. He only knew that if he could return to 10 years ago, he would take Zhao Zhao away, giving him the best clothes, the best education and the most interesting toys, never allowing him to be wronged. 

"The university entrance examination is a few months away. Do you want to try it?"

This question made the still smiling Li Zhao stunned. "Why are you bringing up this matter?"

"It isn't too late to study." Yan Ting wasn't good at persuading others but in front of Li Zhao, he seemed extra cautious. "You're so smart, you will definitely get good grades."

Li Zhao touched his phone and didn’t speak. He looked up at Yan Ting. Yan Ting was watching him, tolerating everything about him. 

“Okay.” Li Zhao smiled. “I can always try.”

“Then I will arrange the various procedures to take the university entrance examination.” Yan Ting thought about it. “Starting tomorrow morning, remember to drink a bowl of fish soup.”

“Why?”

“Replenish your brain.” 

In the blink of an eye, Yan Ting became a serious parent of a child doing the university entrance examination. In order to be a qualified parent, he also sent a message to his circle of friends.

[Yan Ting: The child at home is going to take the university entrance examination this year. What do parents need to do?]

This circle of friends post still excluded Li Zhao as usual. That night, Yan Ting received a public article from the company’s senior management on nutritious meals as well as various simulation papers and parental notes.

After making a list of all the mock exam volumes, Yan Ting frowned. There were so many. Which one was the best? He silently deleted this form. These things weren’t expensive. First, he would collect more suggestions from other parents and then buy these papers. 

Early the next morning, Zhu Xia and a few other friends rushed over and the housekeeper welcomed them warmly.

Zhu Linlin whispered in Chen Xiaojun’s ear, “Zhao Zhao’s friend is very particular. They even iron the newspaper.”

In the current information age, there weren’t many people reading newspapers, let alone iron newspapers. This wasn’t a novel where rich people paid attention to what others did. (In the past, housekeepers would iron newspapers for their masters to dry the ink and prevent ink from getting on their master’s hands.)

Zhu Xia turned to smile at Zhu Linlin but she was roaring inside. This was the home of Canghuan’s boss so it was right to pay attention to it. The four of them were whispering together when Yan Ting came down from upstairs. 

“Zhao Zhao went to bed late last night so I didn’t let anyone wake him up.” Yan Ting came up to them and said, “Guests, I welcome you.”
