Chapter 201 – Naughty Children Encircles To Pet Aggressively
Seeing his daughter’s hopeful little eyes, Yang Guo patted her shoulder and said softly, “Go ahead, play with your friends. Since we’re all out today, have fun!”
With her father’s permission, Yang Luoqi walked towards Xixi and the others alone. This child was really quite reserved, even though she was already excited. She did not bounce around like Lan Xin, indicating that she had an exceptional upbringing.
In the subsequent conversations, Yang Yi learned that Yang Guo was a teacher and also a professor of foreign language literature. Of course, he was not a professor at Jiangcheng Media University. He was teaching at another university in Tingshan University Town.
Yang Yi received several parents one after another, including Chen Shiyun’s father, Chen Guoqiang, a boxing coach, whom he had met before, and of course, Chen Shiyun’s mother. They came together as a family.
Nan Zhaoyu also came with his father. It was worth mentioning that his father, Mr. Nan Yiyun, was a great calligrapher – no wonder Nan Zhaoyu liked to recite poetry. Mr. Nan Yiyun was almost 50 years old this year and has become a father in his old age. He dotes on Nan Zhaoyu very much.
There were many parents present, most of whom were older than Yang Yi, only Chen Guoqiang was similar in age to Yang Yi. Fortunately, they were all experienced people who could converse with each other despite their age differences. Moreover, they have their children as their common topic, so the scene was quite lively.
While the adults were chatting, the children went wild playing. Today, they didn’t have kindergarten teachers watching over them, so they were like birds that have escaped from their cage, chirping and flying around, making the coffee shop lively.
“Xixi.” Yang Luoqi still thought about the kittens. She found an opportunity to pull the little girl who was already smiling ear to ear, and said softly, “Can you take me to see Xiao Guai and the others?”
“Yeah, let’s go see Xiao Guai! I want to see Xiao Guai too!” Lan Xin shouted loudly when she heard it.
“Okay, okay! I’ve never seen a blue cat before, even though I’m this old!” Chen Shiyun, who was four and a half years old this year, also shouted in agreement.
“Hmph, you’ve never seen a blue cat before! I’ve seen so many of them!” Lan Xin proudly raised her head. She and Chen Shiyun were a bit incompatible, probably because they often competed to see whose voice was louder?
“Hehe, okay then, I’ll ask my Papa to take us up!” Xixi smiled and ran toward her father.
But her little friends were also energetic four- or five-year-olds. They couldn’t stay put and giggled while running after Xixi. Yang Luoqi also followed along, running behind them. The little lady seemed to be influenced by her friends and gradually loosened up a bit.
“Slow down, you’re already sweating!” Yang Yi heard the commotion and quickly turned around to catch the little girl who was rushing toward him. He also crouched down and wiped the fine sweat on her forehead with his hand.
“Papa, can you take us up to see Xiao Guai?” Xixi sweetly smiled. Behind her, there were 7 or 8 little children, some who were not very familiar with Yang Yi and looked at him with a little fear, while others like Lan Xin and Chen Shiyun were already familiar with him and echoed their agreement.
Yang Yi couldn’t leave, he couldn’t just leave his guests on the first floor, so he asked Ding Xiang, who was not comfortable in the crowd, to take the key and accompany the children upstairs to play.
Ding Xiang was not as attractive as the kittens. As soon as they arrived upstairs, a group of children left her behind and followed Xixi, shouting and rushing towards the kittens lazily playing on their backs in the living room.
“Meow!” Xiao Hui was more alert. Seeing the situation was not good, he quickly rolled over and ran away. In just a few quick moves, he climbed up the cat tree and slipped up to the top shelf.
Duoduo was sleeping with her eyes narrowed! Xiao Guai was a bit slow to react…
The two kittens were immediately surrounded by the naughty children. The boldest Chen Shiyun couldn’t wait to catch Duoduo, who had just woken up and was still licking her paws and rubbing her face. Of course, Xiao Guai was still picked up by Xixi.
“Look, this is Xiao Guai, my Xiao Guai!” Xixi happily held up Xiao Guai for everyone to see.
“Meow…” Xiao Guai was lifted high and stared at by a group of children with a “not good intentions” expression in their eyes and he struggled nervously
His tail curled up and tucked between his hind legs, indicating that he was very scared!
The earth is too scary, I want to go back to Meow Planet, meow…
“So cute!” Yang Luoqi’s eyes were entranced. The charm of a kitten was not something that two-legged creatures could resist!
Except for Chen Shiyun, who was eagerly studying the struggling Duoduo and playing with its fur. At one moment, she shouted loudly, “Xixi, you’re wrong. It’s not a blue cat. It’s not blue, it’s black.”
“How can black look like this?” Lan Xin wanted to snatch Duoduo from Chen Shiyun’s clutches and, after finishing her examination, Chen Shiyun did not refuse and let go.
“Okay, it’s gray!” Chen Shiyun scratched her head and said, “Anyway, it’s not blue.”
Xixi was carefully handing Xiao Guai to Yang Luoqi, who was already in love with it. Upon hearing Chen Shiyun’s words, she quickly explained, “No, it’s still blue, just a darker shade. My mom says it’s gray-blue.”
“Okay then!” Chen Shiyun nodded, but she was a little bored. She felt that the docile kitten was not fun to play with, and that her family’s big dog was more impressive, jumping up and down and even catching dishes with its mouth.
The other little ones didn’t have Chen Shiyun’s strong resistance. Duoduo and Xiao Guai were both whimpering as they were held and kissed. Only Xiao Hui, who escaped up onto the shelf and refused to come down no matter what, survived.
“…My Xiao Guai is the smallest, but he is very powerful! Last time I went to a barbecue with my Papa, he caught a small bug,” Xixi was also very excited and told her little friends some stories.
“I envy Xixi so much! I really want a kitten, but my grandma doesn’t like cats, so she won’t let me have one,” Yang Luoqi gently stroked the fur on Xiao Guai’s forehead and said regretfully.
After they had been playing for an unknown amount of time, Yang Yi walked up and clapped his hands, and said with a smile, “Children, it’s time to go down. Uncle has prepared a lot of delicious food for you. If you don’t go down now, your parents will eat all of it!”
Food?
Chen Shiyun was the first to jump up. She couldn’t wait any longer.
The second to jump up was Lan Xin. As soon as she heard there was food, and that it was delicious food cooked by Xixi’s father, how could the chubby little girl sit still?
“I want to go eat barbecue!” Lan Xin shouted with a drool.
“I also want too…we also want too!” Encouraged by the loud voice, a group of children immediately left the kitten and began shouting like they were in a vegetable market.
Duoduo, who felt as if she had been granted amnesty, jumped onto the cat tree, trembling all over and never wanting to come down again.
Xiao Guai had been held and carried around so much that he was now unsteady on his feet, but he still managed to climb up the cat tree with a stumble, and crawled into the small “mining hole” with lingering fear, only his butt and tail swinging outside.
But the children didn’t pay attention to the kittens. Even Xixi couldn’t spare any attention. She took Yang Luoke’s hand, giggling and wanting to rush down with the big group.
“No, you have to wash your hands first!” Yang Yi helplessly stopped the little ones and pointed to the bathroom and said
After petting the cat, one should wash their hands, especially before eating!
