Since the compet.i.tions were already over, the teacher was naturally not worried about affecting Ji Zixuan’s condition.
In addition, the ident.i.ty of the parents could also be confirmed, so the teacher leading the team readily agreed to Li Xu’s request, “Alright, then Zixuan can have fun with your family and relax. You’ve worked hard during this period of time.”
Ji Zixuan nodded and whispered, “Thank you, teacher.”
The teacher smiled and looked at Li Xu. He couldn’t help but remind her, “Zixuan’s Mother, our Zixuan is going to take his middle school exams this summer. You’d better not let him get too excited. Otherwise, I’m afraid he won’t be able to refocus for a few days.”
The teacher was doing this for Ji Zixuan’s own good, so Li Xu quickly promised, “Teacher, don’t worry. We’re just going to look for his aunt to play for two days.”
After the teacher left with the other students, Li Xu reached out to touch Ji Zixuan’s face and asked, “Are you cold, quick, get into the car? What do you want to eat for lunch?”
Ji Zixuan got into the car under Li Xu’s escort, “I’m fine with anything. Let’s see what you guys want to eat.”
Li Xu also got into the car and asked Ji Yuanyuan and Ji Zi’ang while putting on her seatbelt, “What about you two? What do you want to eat?”
“Can we eat KFC?” Ji Zi’ang immediately raised his hand and probed.
“You love to eat junk food. Eat something nutritious.” Li Xu fastened her seatbelt and said unhappily.
Ji Zi’ang, who was sitting behind the front pa.s.senger seat, went forward and ma.s.saged Li Xu’s shoulders, “Mom, I haven’t eaten it in a long time. It’s not easy for us to come out and play. Can’t you make me happy?”
Li Xu rubbed his head, feeling a headache coming on, “Aren’t you happy? I see that you’re laughing all day long. You’re smiling quite happily!”
Seeing this, Ji Zi’ang quickly sat down and nudged Ji Yuanyuan with his elbow.
“Mom, why don’t we eat this for lunch? It’s convenient and fast. After we eat, we’ll go back to the hotel and extend our stay. At the same time, we’ll let Big Brother rest for a while.”
Li Xu thought for a moment. Ji Zixuan had woken up early in the morning and had taken the exam for more than two hours. He must be tired now.
“Shall we eat KFC then?” She turned to look at him.
He leaned back in his seat and nodded silently.
Since the three children agreed, Zhang Kun and Li Xu naturally had no problem.
The family found the nearest KFC and returned to the hotel after a simple lunch.
It wasn’t good for the child to sleep in a room alone when they were away.
Therefore, the couple only booked two rooms.
Li Xu and Ji Yuanyuan slept in one room while Zhang Kun and the two boys slept in the other.
At this moment, Ji Zixuan occupied a room by himself and caught up in his sleep.
The remaining four people were in another room.
“What are our plans for the afternoon?” Li Xu asked in a low voice.
They came to B City this time without telling the Qin family or Li Miao.
Therefore, they did not have a plan and could act as they pleased.
“Let’s go to Li Miao to take a look first. It was Sat.u.r.day, so she probably didn’t have cla.s.s today. She might be in the dormitory. She would go to the Qin family’s house at night. Mucheng was busy during the day and was probably only free at night. I’ll take you to the department store tomorrow morning to buy some clothes.”
“It’s not popular to call it a department store anymore,” Ji Zi’ang reminded him, “They call it a shopping mall.”
Zhang Kun and Li Xu looked at each other and laughed.
“Alright.” Zhang Kun nodded. “I’ll bring you to that shopping mall or the department store tomorrow.”
After saying that, Zhang Kun looked at Li Xu and asked in a low voice, “Is this arrangement okay?”
“No problem!” Li Xu shook her head.
After she finished speaking, she thought of a problem and reminded him,
“Let’s go to Mucheng’s house tonight. Uncle Qin and Auntie Cheng will definitely ask us to stay over politely, but we can’t trouble them anymore. We have to learn to reject them, okay?”
Hearing this, Ji Yuanyuan and Ji Zi’ang nodded at the same time.
Li Xu then waved at Ji Yuanyuan, “Come and sleep for a while. Your brother will probably wake up later.”
Ji Yuanyuan stepped forward and climbed onto Li Xu’s bed.
There were two beds in this room, one big and one small.
The mother and daughter were huddled on the small bed while Zhang Kun and Ji Zi’ang were on the big bed.
It was already past two in the afternoon when Ji Zixuan was awake.
Zhang Kun drove and brought his family to Li Miao’s school.
Li Miao had to study for the postgraduate entrance examination while working. Time should be very tight. Li Xu guessed that she must be in school.
Reality proved that Li Xu understood this younger sister quite well.
As expected, Li Miao did not go anywhere. She was studying in the dormitory provided by the school.
When she came out of the school and saw Li Xu and the others at the school gate, Li Miao quickly smiled.
She almost ran out and grabbed Ji Yuanyuan’s hand. She smiled and touched her face, asking, “Why are you guys here? Why didn’t you call me in advance? Didn’t I give you our school’s phone number?”
She looked at Ji Yuanyuan, then at Ji Zixuan and Ji Zi’ang.
“How long has it been since we last met? Has Yuanyuan grown taller?”
She measured Ji Yuanyuan’s height.
Seeing this, Ji Yuanyuan only smiled.
Ji Zi’ang went forward and answered Li Miao’s first question, “Aunty, we’re here to accompany my brother to partic.i.p.ate in the Mathematical Olympiad second round.”
“Mathematical Olympiad compet.i.tion?” Li Miao was a little surprised. “You pa.s.sed the first round?”
Before he could reply, Li Miao smiled in embarra.s.sment, “Look at what I’m saying. Since young, our Zixuan has always been the top student. After entering the new school, you’ll definitely still be number one, right?”
He touched his nose humbly, “Aunty, 1 don’t always get first place. There will always be someone better than me.”
Li Xu also said, “You guys, don’t always praise him. If he gets arrogant, that won’t be good.”
“How could that be? When has our Zixuan ever been proud? What a humble child!” Zhang Kun stepped forward and patted his head.
“Are you free this afternoon? Let’s go out for a walk? We still have to go to the Qin family’s house tonight.” Li Xu probed.
Li Miao did not hesitate and immediately said, “No problem. What can 1 be busy with? Then let’s go now!”
Zhang Kun’s car could not accommodate so many people, so Li Xu brought Li Miao to hail a taxi.
It was already three o’clock in the afternoon. They didn’t go anywhere else. They brought Li Miao to the supermarket and bought her some food and daily necessities.
She might not be willing to buy it usually.
After shopping at the supermarket, they brought her out for a meal. By the time they sent her back to school, it was already past six o’clock.
The sky had completely darkened. Li Xu took out a thousand yuan from his pocket and quietly stuffed it into the shopping bag..
