Chapter 87 Nian Nian Lives in the Forest

"Are you still hungry?"

Jiang Duan, who had watched Nian Nian eat a lot of food, couldn't help but ask after he saw him clear the vegetables.

After eating, Nian Nian leaned back on the chair like a soft piece of crystal mud.

He looked satisfied as if he had eaten a full meal, his lips curved in a happy arc, and his half-closed eyelids made his round eyeballs become semicircular.

He followed Jiang Duan's line of questioning and touched his bulging belly. "Nian Nian, I'm full. I'm not hungry anymore."

Jiang Duan's eyes lingered on his bulging belly to make sure he was telling the truth.

That's probably because I was really full.

"You eat so much." Ji Shuhe was surprised when he had dinner with Nian Nian for the first time.

Xi Zimu lowered his head and pushed the plate that was tilted off the table back, saying as if it was normal, "Nian Nian only ate a little more than usual today."

Jiang Duan thought for a moment and retorted, "It's more than just a little bit. He ate two extra dishes."

"Not much." Nian Nian, who had been slumped in the chair, sat up straight. She waved her hand, which had three or four dimples on the back, in front of her. Her eyes were innocent, as if she had been wrongly accused of a heinous crime. "Nian Nian asked Grandpa and Papa, and they said they didn't eat much."

"Besides, Nian Nian went to school today. She's tired and very hungry."

His serious and well-reasoned look is really cute.

Jiang Duan and the others always have no idea what to do with Nian Nian who talks like this.

Just like now, after Nian Nian reiterated that he didn't eat much, none of the three people was stubborn and insisted on arguing with him about whether his appetite was big or small. They all accepted it calmly.

"Okay, not much." Ji Shuhe looked at him with an indulgent smile, gently changing the subject, with a questioning look in his eyes, "But, what is the 'papa' you are talking about? Is it some relative of yours?"

Unexpectedly, Xi Zimu burst into laughter as soon as these words were spoken, and Jiang Duan's smile curled slightly. Nian Nian blushed, and her rebuttal was not as quick as before, looking a little embarrassed.

"He's not a relative, he's Nian Nian's father." The little fellow lowered his moist eyes, hugging his full belly for a sense of security, so shy that he almost crawled into the ground. "Nian Nian has tried hard to correct herself, but she will forget."

"Oh." Seeing how embarrassed he was, Ji Shuhe subconsciously recalled the peach-colored little parrot that his grandfather raised and always shrank its head.

Thinking of this, he softened his voice and said soothingly, "It's okay. I know now that Papa is your father. It's okay if I forget to change it."

The red on Nian Nian's face gradually faded and turned into a transparent pink. "Okay, thank you."

Ji Shuhe was stunned, and like a wooden stake, he followed the manners taught by his mother and instinctively replied, "You're welcome."

I thought to myself that Nian Nian was more like that little parrot.

Because they were considered to be a group of students with relatively strong self-care abilities in the Star Class, after Nian Nian and the others finished their meal and chatted for a while, the entire Star Class finally had their lunch.

Teachers Tan and Qin arranged for them to line up and hand their plates to the kitchen clerk standing at one end of the restaurant. After that, they each lined up to receive a small bottle of fresh milk.

"Children can drink milk at any time, but if you are full, don't drink it right away, otherwise you will get stomach pain and feel very uncomfortable."

The teacher looked serious. He had to look serious. If the teacher spoke in a gentle tone, they would not take it seriously.

After all, most children don’t respond to soft words, they only respond to hard words or lessons learned from making mistakes and suffering the consequences.

As the saying goes, people can never teach others, but things can teach people once.

After receiving the milk, the little kids stood together in an orderly manner like little bees collecting honey.

"Kids, have you all got your milk? Let's move on and show you the room where you can take your nap."

Just like when they left the classroom to eat, Teacher Tan and Teacher Qin stood in front and behind, with the entire Xingxing class in between.

Walking down the street, Xi Zimu and Ji Shuhe, surrounded by the little kids, were restless. Perhaps out of gratitude, they offered to give the milk they had received to Nian Nian.

Jiang Duan, needless to say, was indifferent to most things, not just the milk in his hand. He basically gave Nian Nian whatever she wanted.

Nian Nian shook her head and said in a tone like an elder: "You have to drink milk. If you don't drink it, you won't grow taller. Yuanyuan drinks it every day and is much taller than Nian Nian."

Ji Shuhe didn't care who Yuanyuan was, and stuffed the milk into his hand.

"Here, I'll give it to you. I won't grow any more today. I'll grow more tomorrow."

Nian Nian couldn't argue with him and accepted the milk.

Seeing this, Xi Zimu followed a similar method and asked Nian Nian to accept his milk as well.

After transferring the ownership of the milk, they went to the famous and ultra-luxurious "Tree Hole" nap room of Changying Kindergarten.

It was like a small forest inside, with vine-like hooks and ropes on the walls. The four walls were made to look like thick tree trunks twisted together, with several large holes dug out and bedding laid in the holes, which served as small beds for sleeping.

The open space in the middle was naturally not wasted; rows of thick, round wooden beds, true to their true colors, were placed there, and evenly covered with Changying Kindergarten's standard blue quilts.

This sleeping environment instantly captured the hearts of all the children.

Nian Nian walked in, holding three bottles of milk, her eyes shining: "It's so beautiful. Nian Nian wants to sleep in the tree."
