Chapter 1568: Chapter 907: Jiang Xiaowai’s Competitive Streak—On Methods for Silencing Others

About the summer classes, when Jiang Xiaowai heard he would be going with his cousin from his third uncle’s family, he was initially very reluctant. But when he learned about the kinds of classes they signed up for, he got interested and thought of secretly dragging Little Accident along.

"Little Uncle, let’s go together." That day, Jiang Xiaowai even brought some snacks to curry favor with this little elder.

"Summer classes, huh..." Little Accident silently stuffed the pile of snacks Jiang Xiaowai brought into his backpack, then said, "But Dad said he would take me and my sister out to play during the summer break, so I won’t be going to any classes this year."

Jiang Xiaowai instantly felt deflated, "Where are you guys going to play?"

"He said he would take us on a trip and also visit our grandparents in Pingjiang."

Mr. Shen and his wife returned to Pingjiang a few years ago and never moved back. The old man still doesn’t like life in the big city, feeling more comfortable living in his old place.

It was just right to have Mr. Tang as company, and a few of the elders have been relatively healthy in recent years.

"Oh." Jiang Xiaowai bit his lower lip, feeling lonely, small, and helpless.

On the day kindergarten let out, each class held a small meeting, inviting parents to attend, mainly to summarize the entire school year with awards, red flowers, and toys for those who performed well.

Little Accident stole the show that day because it was Huo Qinqi who showed up. Among the crowd of parents, he stood out like a crane among chickens, tall and imposing. On top of that, his profession also garnered envy from many kids.

"Huo Tinglan, your dad is so tall and handsome."

Little Accident was especially proud, "He’s alright."

Jiang Xiaowai, on the other hand, was absent-minded. Normally, he could go hide out at Little Uncle’s house, but since the whole family was going on a trip, what was he supposed to do?

...

Yet, in the days leading up to the summer break, he was actually quite happy, playing joyfully and carefree for a few days before the day for summer classes arrived.

Tang Wan didn’t force him to learn anything he disliked; everything was something he was interested in, like Taekwondo and drawing, which is why Jiang Xiaowai wanted to drag Little Accident along.

If he didn’t like any of it, he would surely have called Tang Yunxian and asked his grandpa to take him to Pingjiang for the summer.

Tang Yunxian lived in Pingjiang and rarely got to spend time with his grandson, so as long as the little guy’s requests weren’t too outrageous, he would usually agree.

Actually, every summer break, Jiang Xiaowai would spend a lot of time in Pingjiang. One year, when Tang Wan and Jiang Jinsang were both very busy, they wanted him to come back to Beijing, but the little guy refused.

By the time Tang Wan went over, the little guy had tanned like a little coal briquette and had become quite friendly with the elderly in the local park, even learning Tai Chi.

That year’s Children’s Day performance at kindergarten saw him perform a set of Tai Chi on stage, looking the part and even winning a prize.

At that time, some parents asked Tang Wan where she enrolled him for classes, "Letting the kids learn Tai Chi is quite unique."

Tang Wan just gave a sheepish smile.

The Taekwondo class was at nine in the morning, and today was the day to report in and get uniforms. The coach would also explain a few things. As Tang Wan drove Jiang Xiaowai to the entrance, she saw Lin Luyou standing alongside a half-height little girl.

"Mutang, your sister is already here." Tang Wan turned her head to look at her son. She rolled down the car window and greeted Lin Luyou, telling her she’d park first and then come over.

"Go on." Lin Luyou just smiled.

The little girl beside her sweetly called out, "Hello, Auntie."

The little girl wore simple long pants and a short-sleeved shirt, her hair in a ponytail. She inherited Lin Luyou’s features, with a pair of beautiful, lively doe eyes. However, her face and overall features didn’t resemble her parents much; in fact, she looked a bit like Jiang Chengsi.

She had the inherent sweetness and innocence of a girl her age, yet there was also a lively and spirited air about her. In a few years, she would definitely grow into a carefree and bold young lady.

As Qi Zeyan would say:

"Good thing she was born a girl. If she were a boy, she’d break so many girls’ hearts."

Jiang Chengsi also had a special fondness for this niece of his. He had a daughter himself, but whenever he bought anything for her, he made sure this little niece got a share, too.

Jiang Xiaowai reluctantly got out of the car, holding Tang Wan’s hand and greeted Lin Luyou.

"Hello, brother." The little girl’s voice was naturally childish and sweet.

"Hello, sister."

The brother and sister were still somewhat formal with each other, making Tang Wan smile as she released her son’s hand, "Go hold your sister’s hand. We’ll go in to report together."

Jiang Xiaowai: "..."

"Why are you standing there dazed? As the older brother, you should take the initiative." Tang Wan patted his little head.

Jiang Xiaowai could only muster up the courage to go over, rather awkwardly scratching his head, "Uh, um..."
