The principal, upon hearing this, was so amused he chuckled.
"Heh heh... you silly boy, at my age, I no longer care about fame or fortune. How could I be jealous of you?"
If anyone said he wasn't jealous, he was dying of jealousy. Why couldn't this child be his, and not someone else's?
"Hmph!" Jiang Yu Ku's small face puffed up indignantly.
Mu Jiu Chen looked at his son, then fell silent.
He then said to the principal, "Principal, I'd like to speak with my child alone. We will all seriously consider what you've said."
The principal smiled and said, "Ninth Master, your son is exceptional. Please don't scold him. Apart from those minor bad habits, he's outstanding in every other way. It's a shame he's not mine."
"Oh, oh, oh..." Jiang Yu Ku pointed at the principal in surprise, "Principal, you've finally revealed your jealousy."
The principal: "..." My apologies for the interruption!
"Pfft..." Jiang Nuan couldn't help but let out a rather ungraceful laugh this time.
Jiang Si Yun also couldn't help but smile.
The principal: "..." Why are they laughing at such an awkward moment!
"You rascal," the principal's face reddened. "Alright, today's parent-teacher conference is over."
Mu Jiu Chen pursed his lips and smiled, "Principal, I will donate one hundred million to the school to complete your library construction."
The principal instantly beamed, his eyes sparkling as he looked at Mu Jiu Chen, "Ninth Master, you are our school's god! Thank you so much. The previous building allowed us to expand our campus and add three new experimental programs, enabling the children here to learn more. On behalf of all the teachers and students, I thank you!"
Jiang Yu Ku: "..." Dad, are you out of your mind?
Wouldn't this money be better for his future entrepreneurial ventures?
"Hmph!" Jiang Yu Ku left angrily.
The principal respectfully saw the family of four out.
Downstairs, as the family descended, a little girl rushed out from around a corner.
The little girl, with a beaming smile, held up a sandwich. "Yu Ku, this is a sandwich I learned to make with my mom. It's super delicious. Would you like a bite?"
Jiang Nuan and Mu Jiu Chen, standing behind: "..."
Jiang Yu Ku, who was trying to figure out how to explain things to his parents: "..."
This little girl's appearance couldn't have come at a worse time.
Jiang Yu Ku took the sandwich and then, under the girl's happy, smiling gaze, handed it back to her.
"Gu Ling Xi, you should eat this delicious sandwich yourself."
The little girl was stunned. After being rejected by Jiang Yu Ku, tears gushed out, and she ran off crying, clutching the sandwich.
Jiang Nuan and Mu Jiu Chen, who had witnessed everything: "..."
Both their expressions were complicated!
Jiang Nuan walked over and looked at her son. "Sweetie, don't casually reject your friends. That classmate just wanted to share her food with you; she didn't have any other intentions."
At his age, he wouldn't understand romantic love.
When children see beautiful people and things, they just want to get closer. It's a visual attraction.
There are many types of liking, and the liking between children is very pure.
"Mommy." Jiang Yu Ku smiled, seeing his mother's understanding, and then added with a touch of arrogance, "Mommy made me too handsome, that's why I'm so popular?"
Jiang Nuan: "..." She just pursed her lips and smiled, saying nothing.
Then, the couple sent the siblings back to their dormitory and were dumbfounded again.
Their daughter was also incredibly popular. Many little boys came to greet her and even gave her gifts.
And then there was their son, who was also very well-liked.
Jiang Nuan showed a gratified smile, it wasn't as serious as the principal had made it out to be.
As Jiang Nuan was thinking this, she heard a girl's argument from behind.
"I liked Jiang Yu Ku first! Why are you fighting with me?"
"Hmph! Does he like you? Has he ever accepted a gift from you? He accepted a gift from me last semester."
Jiang Nuan turned to look at two beautiful little girls, and the mother's heart finally showed a trace of worry.
...
Jiang Nuan left the school, looking at her husband with a hint of concern.
Mu Jiu Chen didn't know what to do either.
Moreover, he realized that children nowadays were different from their time, and he was having trouble keeping up with their thoughts.
"Wife, don't worry, the children know what they're doing."
Jiang Nuan nodded. "You know, who did Bao Kuo inherit that personality from?"
Mu Jiu Chen quickly denied, "It's definitely not me. Of all the women in the world, I'm only interested in you. I've never been ambiguous."
Mu Jiu Chen's survival instinct was always very strong.
He was more worried about his own little "cotton-padded jacket."
Jiang Nuan smiled and said nothing more. "Let's go, we should go see Yuan Yuan first."
Mu Jiu Chen nodded slightly. The two got into the car and headed to Meng Yuan's house.
Upon arriving at Meng Yuan's doorstep, they saw a scantily clad girl lingering by the entrance.
Jiang Nuan recalled the message Meng Yuan had sent her, her gaze deepening.
"Miss, who are you looking for?" Jiang Nuan asked indifferently.
Wang Yu Qian looked at the beautiful Jiang Nuan and instantly felt a sense of hostility. "And who are you?"
Jiang Nuan pointed to the door. "This is my best friend's house."
Wang Yu Qian frowned and said with a smile, "Then you knock on the door. She definitely won't open it if I do."
"What are you looking for Yuan Yuan for?" Jiang Nuan asked coldly.
Looking at the woman's smile, she knew she had ill intentions.
"Hmph! It's none of your business. I'm just here to tell her that I'm going to be with He Ming Run, and she needs to make room for me."
Jiang Nuan had seen shameless people before, and this wasn't the first time she had encountered such shamelessness, but this time, she was very angry.
She coldly reminded, "Miss, my friend and her husband love each other sincerely, and my friend is pregnant. Doing this makes you worse than an animal."
"You..."
Wang Yu Qian was furious, then she thought, wasn't her goal precisely to provoke Meng Yuan into a miscarriage?
She smiled sinisterly, her voice sharp, "You're just her friend, what right do you have to interfere in matters between the three of us?"
Jiang Nuan's voice was sonorous. "And what are you, to dare to interfere in their marital affairs?"
"I..."
Jiang Nuan didn't wait for her to speak, looking at Mu Jiu Chen beside her.
"Call He Ming Run. How can he be a husband when his pregnant wife is left at home to be bullied like this?"
Mu Jiu Chen: "I'll call right now."
Wang Yu Qian's eyes widened. If she left now, and He Ming Run found out, he would kick her out of the company.
However, Jiang Nuan blocked her path, preventing her from leaving.
"You dared to come, why are you afraid to stay? Weren't you just bravely looking for trouble?"
Her provocative tone made Wang Yu Qian glare at her fiercely. To be with He Ming Run, she had secretly come to find Meng Yuan.
For her own happiness, a woman should actively pursue it.
She had fallen in love with He Ming Run at first sight, but he only loved his wife.
She was unwilling to accept it; with her beauty, she could surely win over the utterly unremarkable Meng Yuan.
Mu Jiu Chen had already hung up the phone. He Ming Run knew they were coming back and had already returned.
He looked at Jiang Nuan and said gently, "Wife, He Ming Run is back."
Wang Yu Qian: "!!" A flicker of fear flashed in her eyes. So soon?
She wanted to leave, but then she heard the door of Meng Yuan's house open.
