Chapter 83 Fourth Brother is Home

Lu Yinzhao covered her ears, not wanting to recall that incident.

Why was he so stupid to agree to wear the little skirt? His family even kept videos and photos of him, and now he really wants to climb into their phones and delete them all.

No wonder there's a common saying online: "If he had even a kindergarten diploma, he wouldn't have been fooled like this."

Lu Yinzhao realized that attending kindergarten really does make a difference.

He still feels a little embarrassed when he thinks about it now.

"I'm not a little girl," Lu Yinzhao said angrily, glaring with her big eyes and pouting.

"Mmm." Bian Ji tried hard to hide his smile.

You are the cutest boy in the world.

*

It's another sunny school day.

Lu Yinzhao saw the two policemen who had come before again that day.

After the abduction case was solved and brought to a close, in order to thank the children who had provided them with valuable information, the bureau specifically instructed them to give the children some small gifts.

Previously, some members of their team discussed whether to give a "formal reward," but after careful consideration, they decided against it. Instead, they will use a more age-appropriate way to acknowledge the children's help, which will both protect the children's mental well-being and convey the right values.

They brought a box of cartoon notebooks and police badge stickers today and thanked the whole class.

All the children who provided clues were awarded a "Little Detective Badge".

The two officers especially wanted to thank Lu Yinzhao.

As they were leaving, Lu Yinzhao's words suddenly enlightened them, and after they returned to the bureau and reported back, they quickly formulated the next battle plan.

This is all interconnected, and it must be admitted that children's perspectives are sometimes truly unique, even more perceptive than adults'.

The policewoman patted Lu Yinzhao's head and personally handed the little boy a notebook with a police badge sticker on it.

"Thank you." Lu Yinzhao gladly accepted it.

"We should be thanking you. I asked the teacher, and she said your name is Zhaozhao, right?"

"Um!"

"Zhaozhao, you are very thoughtful and brave."

They praised Lu Yinzhao, but Lu Yinzhao also had questions she wanted to ask them.

"Auntie, what happened to that little puppy in the end?" Lu Yinzhao thought about how the human traffickers had all been caught, but what about the dog?

The policewoman smiled gently: "Don't worry, it has been returned to its original owner."

The male police officer continued, "Someone in the neighboring city reported that their dog had been stolen. There was a record of it, and the characteristics matched that of that little dog. Besides, its name really was Cotton Candy, not Little White."

Policewoman: "That dog dealer was also detained and fined for selling stolen dogs."

Lu Yinzhao became happy, pleased that everything was going in the best possible direction.

To hell with those heartless human and dog traffickers! They're utterly wicked and deserve to be severely punished!

In the following lesson, the two police officers also took the opportunity to conduct "anti-trafficking knowledge promotion".

This incident has raised serious concerns among teachers and parents. The kindergarten has recently issued a new regulation stating that any suspicious individuals without verified identities who are found loitering or observing at the main gate must be immediately removed; otherwise, the police will be notified.

The male police officer held up a cartoon card and asked, "If a stranger, an older woman, said to you, 'I'm your mother's friend, and she asked me to pick you up for ice cream,' would you go with her?"

"I know the answer to this: I don't eat food from strangers!"

"I know that too. I know all my mom's friends. She must be lying to me!"

"I won't go with people I don't know."

"..."

The children answered all at once.

Lu Yinzhao thought to himself, it seems that these children have all been given a good talking-to by their parents after they went home.

Even he is.

Although Yin Song and Lu Wenyan knew that their Zhaozhao was very well-behaved and clever, there were too many ill-intentioned people these days, and they were afraid that their negligence would put their child in danger. Even if the child didn't like to hear it, they still had to remind her.

Later, the police and children played role-playing games to train anti-abduction skills and distributed safety gadgets to reinforce the children's memory.

The whole process went very smoothly, and it was both fun and educational.

When school was over, Lu Yinzhao got into his family's car and found that not only Yin Song and Lu Wenyan were in the car, but also Lu Cheng, whom he hadn't seen for a long time.

For the past month, Lu Cheng has been busy preparing for, competing in, preparing for, and competing again. In such a tense process, he has had no time to go home.

"Fourth brother! You're back!" Lu Yinzhao rushed over from the bottom of his heart.

Lu Cheng hugged the little guy tightly, "Zhao Zhao, do you miss your fourth brother?"

"I want to!" Lu Yinzhao leaned closer to touch her.

He felt that Lu Cheng had changed quite a bit in the past year. He had grown taller, his appearance had matured, and his facial features were more defined than before.

I still remember when he first transmigrated, 16-year-old Lu Cheng liked to dye his hair. Now, those silver highlights are long gone, and his hair has returned to its original black color.

People in his family naturally have good hair quality. Lu Cheng's hair is black and thick. Now he has a slightly parted, layered cut, and his hairstyle is naturally fluffy with distinct layers. He finally looks a bit like a pure and innocent male high school student. He is much less aggressive than before. Outsiders might even be deceived by his appearance at first glance.

"What's that hanging on your clothes?" Lu Cheng chatted casually with the baby in her arms.

Lu Yinzhao took it off and showed it to Lu Cheng, "Isn't the little detective badge that the police officer gave me cool?"

Lu Cheng politely replied, "Cool, of course it's cool, but why would the police go to your kindergarten?"

Lu Cheng has been training and playing matches during this period, and his internet connection has been a bit off. In order not to distract him, his family has not told him about what happened at Zhao Zhao's kindergarten.

At that moment, he suddenly asked about it, and Lu Wenyan and Yin Song took the opportunity to tell him about what had happened in the news.

After he finished speaking, Lu Cheng was dumbfounded.

"This is outrageous! This is outrageous! They're even kidnapping children at Zhaozhao Kindergarten? If these people were in my game, I could chop them up eight hundred times over!" Lu Cheng said indignantly.

"Yes, thankfully the child came back safely in the end, otherwise the parents would have been so guilty and heartbroken, they would probably have lived in regret for the rest of their lives." Yin Song shook her head and sighed. She couldn't even imagine what it would be like if her own Zhaozhao had been abducted; she would really break down.

"Zhao Zhao is really great, she's done a great job this time." Lu Cheng praised her, giving her a thumbs up, after hearing that Zhao Zhao had provided valuable information to the police and thus received the badge.

"It's alright, it wasn't just my doing, all the kids in my class helped." Lu Yinzhao was being modest now, but she felt really happy after being praised by her fourth brother.

"Fourth brother, what brings you home today?" Lu Yinzhao asked.

"Your fourth brother made it to the finals of this spring season. My finals are in a week. The coach told me not to be too stressed and to give me a couple of days off." Lu Cheng hadn't been home for a month, so he came back to see Zhao Zhao.

“Another week? That means it’s almost your birthday!” Lu Wenyan said.

Lu Cheng's voice rose, filled with unwavering confidence: "Haha, isn't it a coincidence? The day of the finals is my birthday! My coming of age! Dad, have you decided what gift to give me yet?"

Lu Cheng reached out for the gift without any regard for the consequences, and Lu Wenyan chuckled, "I give you the latest game console every year, you must be tired of playing it by now, so I won't give you one this year."

Yin Song teased him, saying, "Can Mommy and Daddy give you a kiss?"

Lu Cheng exclaimed excitedly, "No way! Please! I'm turning eighteen soon, and there won't be two minors in my family anymore. Don't I deserve a better gift?"

Lu Yinzhao: "..." He felt like he was being shot at.

Seeing that the boy believed him, Lu Wenyan stopped joking and told him directly, "I don't have much to give you as a gift, but how about I give you a car?"

Lu Cheng was a little suspicious and said defensively, "I don't want models. I already have a ton of supercar models."

Lu Wenyan: "Sigh, I was planning to give you the latest Porsche supercar, but if you don't want it, that's fine..."

Lu Cheng then realized what was happening, his pupils contracting as he understood that his father was serious. He immediately shouted, "Yes! Yes! Yes! I didn't say no! It's a real car, right? You can't back out!"

Lu Wenyan glanced back at him and said, "I can't give you this gift on your birthday yet. I can only give it to you after you finish your college entrance exam and get your driver's license."

Lu Cheng instantly deflated: "..."

He then remembered that he didn't have a driver's license yet! Oh no!

Moreover, after this final competition, he will be making his final sprint; he was so excited just now that he forgot about everything else.

Although his parents didn't have particularly high expectations for his grades, Lu Cheng was concerned about his reputation. His three children were all good at studying, and he, the fourth child, couldn't be the one to fall behind!

Lu Cheng looked down at Zhao Zhao, who was only four years old, in his arms, and suddenly felt incredibly envious of her.

“My dear son, you have a long road ahead of you... but there will always be such a day. When that day comes, don’t put too much pressure on yourself.”

Lu Yinzhao: "?"

Who is this supposed to be comforting?

Lu Yinzhao felt that his fourth brother was the one under the most pressure right now.

There is not only the pressure of competition, but also the pressure of taking the college entrance exam.

Although his fourth brother always seemed confident in every competition, it was impossible for him not to worry about losing at all.

Lu Yinzhao held Lu Cheng's hand, infusing him with some of his own energy, and said encouragingly, "Fourth brother, you will definitely get the result you want, don't worry."

Lu Cheng retorted stubbornly, "I'm not worried. What do I have to worry about? Those little brats are nothing. Zhao Zhao, just you wait and see. I'll beat them to a pulp. As for the college entrance exam, it'll be like cutting melons and vegetables. I'll handle it with ease!"

"..." Okay, whatever makes you happy.

"By the way, Zhao Zhao, do you want to come and watch my match live?" Lu Cheng suddenly asked.

The reason for asking this question is that one of their teammates said his younger brother would be there to cheer him on, and he has a younger brother too!

Everyone has a younger brother.

If Zhao Zhao goes to the stadium to cheer him on, he will definitely play even harder!

You absolutely cannot let your younger brother down.

"Okay, okay! I want to go!" Lu Yinzhao had wanted to ask about this before, but the other party hadn't mentioned it in previous years, and he was afraid that his parents would think he was too young and wouldn't let him go to such a place.

Seeing that his parents didn't object, Lu Yinzhao's mind started to wander.

He vividly remembers that Clear reached a new level of professional competition when he was 18 years old. This year, he will no longer be labeled as a "dark horse" by those marketing accounts in previous years; he will truly be classified as a "master".

"Mom, can I go watch my fourth brother's game? I want to cheer him on!" Lu Yinzhao asked her parents for their opinions even as she wanted to go.

Seeing the stars in Zhao Zhao's eyes, Yin Song couldn't bear to say "no."

"Okay, Mom will go with you then."

"What about Dad? Isn't Dad going?" Lu Yinzhao tilted her head.

"Your dad has to get busy with work now!" Lu Wenyan answered Lu Yinzhao's question. "The movie I directed before has a release date, and there are a lot of procedures to go through..."

He and Zhaozhao couldn't explain the specific procedures clearly either, and the child was too young to understand.

But Lu Yinzhao understood everything when he heard this. His father had spent a lot of time with him and his mother at home in the past year or two, which made him almost forget that Lu Wenyan was a famous director.

After the film's release date is set, I will need to cooperate with the production company in various promotional activities, including premieres, roadshows, and press conferences, all of which require frequent business trips.

Lu Wenyan will also be giving a lot of media interviews, and after the film is released, he will have to closely monitor box office data and changes in screening schedules, and adjust his publicity strategy according to market conditions, etc.

Just thinking about it is such a hassle...

Every job is tough, Lu Yinzhao thought to himself. He probably wouldn't be able to see his father for a while, so he wanted to cherish the few days Lu Wenyan was still around.

"Dad, you can let me see your movie premiere! I'll definitely give you the most honest feedback!" Lu Cheng thought that by the time the movie was released, it would definitely be after his exams, and he would have plenty of time to squander and do whatever he wanted.

Zhao Zhao said timidly, "I want to go too~"

He knows many movies aren't suitable for children, but he's a true film enthusiast, especially since this is a film directed by the renowned director Lu! It's bound to be a classic!

Lu Wenyan was a little embarrassed. His movie contained bloody scenes and content unsuitable for children. How could he take Zhaozhao to see it?

Lu Wenyan said apologetically, "Zhaozhao, when Daddy has some free time, I'll take you to see an animated movie. It'll also be released this summer, and it'll definitely be better than what Daddy is showing, okay?"

Lu Yinzhao: "..." He knew it.

Not wanting to put her father in a difficult position, Lu Yinzhao didn't bring up the topic again.

It doesn't matter, he can secretly watch it on his tablet from now on.

When they got home, the nanny had already prepared a table full of dishes and was waiting for them to eat.

Lu Cheng hadn't had home-cooked meals in a long time, so he picked up his bowl and chopsticks and began to wolf down his food.

With his mouth stuffed full, he couldn't help but exclaim, "It smells so good!"

With more people in the house, Lu Yinzhao had a better appetite.

Yin Song recorded a video on the sidelines after a long time; she hadn't updated Zhao Zhao's mukbang account for quite some time.

Since Lu Yinzhao started kindergarten, she has updated her blog much less frequently.

Zhao Zhao's online fanbase is growing, and Yin Song is intentionally reducing his public profile. There are all sorts of people online, and some will inevitably say sarcastic or sarcastic things.

Ultimately, her son will return to his peaceful life, and now she shares videos purely to give back to the enthusiastic netizens who like Zhao Zhao.

"Zhaozhao, tell everyone what we ate today!"
