Whimper....., I’ve said before, Military Makeup is about Protecting the Family and realizing dreams. Everyone, don’t rush; Protecting the Family is almost finished, and my sister has been waiting for me to have dinner until now. Dear folks, praise me a bit. I’m still hungry... Whimper...

"Xiao Wang, what’s up?" Luo Zhenggang put down his pen, glanced outside the door, Secretary Wang Ting had peeked at the doorway several times, how could he not notice.
Wang Ting scurried in, handing over an invitation: "Secretary Luo, this is an invitation for the 10-year celebration of Q University, please check if you’d like to attend."
"What, they specifically invited me?" Luo Zhenggang unfolded the letter while speaking.
"Not exactly, Mayor Song asked me to show it to you first; he said if you don’t go, he will."
Luo Zhenggang chuckled and set it aside: "Then let Mayor Song go. He’s in charge of education; I won’t snatch his job."
Wang Ting took a couple of steps, then turned back: "Secretary Luo... Are you... really sure about this?"
"Xiao Wang, what’s the matter? You’re not usually this indecisive..." Halfway through, Luo Zhenggang realized the reason for Xiao Wang’s hesitation. His precious son was also one of the organizers of this anniversary. Perhaps Song Fangzheng wanted him to witness his son’s capabilities and performance? This Old Song!
"Secretary..." Wang Ting looked at Luo Zhenggang with hopeful eyes.
Thinking about the expressions of his son and daughter when they mentioned he was one of the organizers, thinking about his son’s original personality, Luo Zhenggang nodded: "Alright, I’ll go."
"Secretary, I’ll inform them right away." Wang Ting dashed out, as if being a second later might make Luo Zhenggang change his mind.
Luo Zhenggang leaned his head on his hand and smiled bitterly. In the past, to avoid any hint of favoritism, he definitely wouldn’t have gone. But now thinking about it, he owes the children too much.
Since they were born into such a family, there are some things the kids must face and accept. As a father, he also needs to learn to care for his children like a true dad. A little bias occasionally might also make the children feel warm-hearted, right?
Besides, it’s not bias. Q University is a landmark university in Island City. As Secretary, showing some concern is also going to give the school leaders and students more confidence.
"Xiao Wang!"
"Secretary, what’s the matter? I... I’ve already made the call." Wang Ting ran in quickly, his face filled with anxiety. Could the boss be having second thoughts?
"Tell the school not to publicize my attendance too soon."
"Got it, Secretary." Wang Ting sighed in relief.
"Keep this from Xiao Huang for now." Luo Zhenggang added.
Wang Ting froze on the spot. Did something happen to Xiao Huang? That can’t be right; he seems quite loyal to the boss. Could there be some misunderstanding?
"He’s Ye’er’s little loudspeaker."
"Got it, Secretary." A twitch tugged at the corner of Wang Ting’s mouth. The boss is becoming more and more... like a loving father, and more approachable.
Working under such a compassionate leader, there’s a future in it! Wang Ting felt ecstatic!
...
During the break of the last class, Luo Tongtong poking at Luo Ye solving problems: "Luoluo, let’s go to Pizza Hut together today; my treat."
Luo Ye gave Tang Luo a scrutinizing look: "Did you steal from your Aunt’s wallet?"
"What are you talking about? Am I that kind of person? Aunt went on a date on Sunday, and I helped her with a report. She gave me 500 bucks as a reward. I just wanted to share with you all, so hurtful to my self-esteem!"
"Sorry, I wronged you. But today is not good. Aunt Qingqing was scheduled to have a babysitter when she was discharged on Friday, but the babysitter’s child got sick and didn’t show. I accompanied mom to Grandpa and Grandma’s on Saturday.
Aunt Qingqing said over the phone the babysitter was very good and told me not to worry, but I still feel better going over to check. If you’re free, come with me."
Xing Nong turned her head, glaring at Luo Ye displeased: "Why do you only invite Tang Luo and not me? Such a biased and mean Luoluo."
Luo Ye rolled her eyes speechlessly: "I haven’t even had the chance to ask you yet. I still have to ask Ying Nuo later. Sigh, a bunch of little jealous jars."
Xing Nong tapped Luo Ye’s head: "This means we care and cherish you, get it?" Then she lowered her voice: "Look at Yang Xing, after he approached you a few times and you didn’t engage, he turned into a bookworm. Is he planning to subdue you with his unbeatable grades?"
"You’re overthinking it. Don’t slack off because you have good grades, turn around and study hard." As Luo Ye spoke, she twisted Xing Nong’s head back to its place.
"Getting rougher." Xing Nong muttered quietly, not turning her head back again.
Fu Mo tossed over a paper ball; Tang Luo opened it and passed it to Luo Ye. It read: "Luoluo, let me come with you guys too."
