Lu Yi Feng furrowed his eyebrows. It was okay if she got a best friend, but she already attracted a boy on her first day?! How could a four-year-old boy have such a sweet mouth?Lu Yi Feng answered, "En... you are beautiful... But Xiao Xi Xi... you have to be careful around boys..."
"Why?" Xiao Xi Xi asked in confusion. "The boy is very nice to me, Uncle. He also shared his toys with me!" Xiao Xi Xi grinned while remembering what the kind boy did for her in the cla.s.sroom. She was confused about why she had to be careful around Xiao Long.
"Xiao Xi Xi... remember what Uncle said, okay? Don"t get too close with boys. All boys have cooties... It"s ewww... remember?" Lu Yi Feng said with full of certainty.
Xiao Xi Xi looked at Uncle Yi Feng in confusion, blinking innocently. "Cooties?"
"Yes..."
"What is that?" Xiao Xi Xi didn"t understand what Uncle Yi Feng tried to tell her.
Lu Yi Feng was confused on how to explain this term, after all, this term was widely popular in America --- but not so in China. "Hmmm... a child is said to "catch" cooties through close contact with an "infected" opposite-s.e.x child..."
"Infected?" Xiao Xi Xi"s eyes widened. She heard that term before. "Just like a zombie virus?" She gasped.
Lu Yi Feng quickly took the chance to nod. "Yes... just like a zombie. So you have to be careful... You don"t want to become a zombie, right?"
Xiao Xi Xi quickly shook her head and said, "No... I will listen to Uncle Yi Feng."
Lin San was still inside Lu Yi Feng"s office. When he heard the conversation between Lu Yi Feng and Xiao Xi Xi, he was beyond speechless! His mouth twitched because of his own boss" shamelessness!
"Boss... is it okay for you to lie to a little kid?" He whined inside his mind.
His boss lied with a straight face! He could only helplessly see how the big bad boss was brainwas.h.i.+ng the little girl.
When Feng Xiao Qing woke up, she was welcomed by this scene. Xiao Xi Xi busily talked about her day with Lu Yi Feng and the latter was listening to her patiently without any expression in his face. However, she could see how he curled up her lips here and there.
Fortunately, she didn"t know how the big bad boss was giving a piece of terrible advice about boys to Xiao Xi Xi or else she would throw up blood because of his pettiness!
When Lu Yi Feng found that Feng Xiao Qing had already woken up, he asked, "Are you ready to go home?"
He wanted to reprimand her about barging into his office, but he changed his mind when he saw the way she looked at him and Xiao Xi Xi. There were rare tenderness and happiness there. Probably it was because she had just woken up and she didn"t mask the twinkle in her eyes.
Feng Xiao Qing quickly stood up and said, "En... Let"s go home!"
They were both started to realize how they viewed Lu Yi Feng"s apartment. It becomes their home now. They didn"t bother to think what would happen after Feng Xiao Qing moved out with her daughter, but for now... it"s their home.
Feng Xiao Qing felt that after taking a nap, her body felt a bit better. Combine with a hot bath that she just had, she felt energized. She prepared dinner and all of them ate together. If only Feng Xiao Qing"s head wasn"t full of her plan to go out stealthily, she would have heard Xiao Xi Xi"s story about cooties. She might be able to prevent the ridiculous thing that happened the next day. Too bad... she was thinking how to dodge Lu Yi Feng that night so she missed that important information.
Lu Yi Feng"s room didn"t have any door. Would he hear the sound of the door opening and closing? There was a possibility. She glanced at her room to the door. It wasn"t that far, but she needed to be careful. Feng Xiao Qing tried to remember where everything was --- just in case, the living room was dark that night and she couldn"t see anything.
Lu Yi Feng saw the way Feng Xiao Qing"s eyes were moving around inside the apartment and he felt somehow that this little woman was planning something, but he didn"t know what. He squinted his eyes but didn"t say anything. He would find out sooner or later, so he didn"t feel worried at all.
After was.h.i.+ng the dishes, Feng Xiao Qing tucked Xiao Xi Xi into bed. Probably because it was her first day to school, she felt tired and fell asleep in no time. Feng Xiao Qing sighed in relief. She wanted to see whether Lu Yi Feng already fell asleep or not. One down, one more to go...
She pretended to go to the kitchen and drank a gla.s.s of warm water. She found out that Lu Yi Feng was still working on his laptop in the living room. She smiled stiffly to Lu Yi Feng before she scurried away into her own room. Lu Yi Feng looked at her weird behavior but found her quite amusing.
He looked forward at what she wanted to do! Lu Yi Feng didn"t plan to go back inside his room anytime soon. He was just waiting for Feng Xiao Qing to move. He had a gut feeling that the woman was trying to find a way going out of his apartment on her own --- without his knowledge.
Feng Xiao Qing pretended to drink a few times and she felt like her bladder would burst anytime soon. She scolded Lu Yi Feng... why didn"t he quickly sleep?! How long would she have to wait for him? She knew that she didn"t have a lot of time because she also needed her beauty sleep to do tomorrow"s lesson.
However, this man didn"t give her any chance to execute her plan sooner!
