Chapter 11 Do you want to go to the School for Extraordinary Children?
Li Chengfeng turned to the page with the number of students enrolled.
"I have another question. Is the probability of extraordinary children appearing very low?"
China has a population of over one billion, but the C City branch has less than fifty first-year students. This is too few.
The three bosses looked at each other, and they all looked as if they wanted to say something but hesitated.
Director Li sighed and took the initiative to speak: "To be honest, although the probability of a transcendent awakening is one in ten thousand, based on the huge number of births in China, there should be about a thousand transcendent children every year. It's just that not all families are willing to register their transcendent children."
Just like Li Chengfeng's initial attitude towards the correctional institution, the Extraordinary Children's Academy is also like a juvenile management institution in the eyes of ordinary people. Parents feel that once they send their children in, there will be no return, so they would rather hide their children secretly with them, resulting in a catastrophe, rather than believe that the state organs will handle it properly.
So that's how it is. Li Chengfeng no longer had any doubts.
He turned to look at Li Pingan beside him and asked, "Pingan, do you want to go to the Extraordinary Children's Academy?"
Li Ping'an looked nervously at the three adults opposite him who were smiling with wrinkles on their faces, then turned around and threw himself into Li Chengfeng's arms.
"Don't leave your uncle, Ping An!"
Director He quickly explained: "I'm not asking you to leave your uncle. You can still apply to go home during the winter and summer vacations."
That means I can't see my uncle except during summer and winter vacations.
Li Pingan pouted and burst into tears, "Uncle, please don't leave me, Pingan doesn't want to go to school, wuwuwu..."
Li Chengfeng looked at Director He, "You also saw that she doesn't want to go to the Extraordinary Children's Academy."
The situation took a sharp turn for the worse, and Director He was stunned.
Seeing that things were about to go wrong, Director Li said anxiously: "She is still a child, but you are an adult. You should know what is the best choice for her. Can she never go to school? Or do you want her to go to school with ordinary children? This is an irresponsible approach to Li Pingan and other children!"
Director Zhang secretly pulled Director Li, signaling him to control his emotions, and then advised him kindly: "Mr. Li, you are indeed an open-minded parent. You are willing to give the right of choice to your child and let him choose his own path. But can you guarantee that this is the right path and not a side road?"
Li Chengfeng was silent for a moment, then said, "It's okay, I will help her."
Director He blurted out: "You helped her at this intersection, what will you do at the next intersection?"
"There will be thousands of me at the next intersection." Li Chengfeng said lightly.
But you will grow old and die, so how can you guarantee to protect Li Ping'an for the rest of his life?
Director He strongly disagreed with Li Chengfeng's point of view and subconsciously wanted to refute it. However, when he raised his eyes and met Li Chengfeng's calm gaze, he suddenly shuddered and the words he wanted to say were stuck for a moment.
After Li Chengfeng finished speaking, he looked down at Li Pingan and said, "Pingan, if you don't want to, don't go. No one in this world can force you to do something you don't want to do."
After getting his uncle's assurance, Li Ping'an's crying suddenly subsided.
The three bosses were stunned. It was the first time they met such a "bold" parent.
They were still trying to persuade him, but Li Chengfeng had already offered to see them off.
"We are ready to eat. Qi Xiang's cooking skills are not very good, so I won't keep you guys here."
Qi Xiang:? ? ?
What does it have to do with me?
I'm just a spectator, why was I pulled out to take the blame?
Damn!
Seeing that his persuasion was futile, Director He had no choice but to take out an invitation letter from his briefcase and put it on the table.
"Mr. Li, this is the admission invitation letter from our Extraordinary Children's Academy. I've left it here. It has the phone number of our admissions office. If you change your mind, you can contact me at any time."
Li Chengfeng said without any regret: "Take care, I won't see you off."
When Qi Xiang sent the three bosses away and returned to the house, Li Chengfeng had already prepared the lunch boxes.
Li Pingan tapped the disposable lunch box with a spoon, "Eat, eat, I'm hungry."
Li Chengfeng stopped her from doing that, "Don't knock on the bowl while eating, it might attract hungry ghosts."
Li Pingan quickly put the spoon away and stared at Qi Xiang pitifully, "Eat, eat, I'm hungry."
Qi Xiang pulled out the admission invitation letter that was under the lunch box, glanced at Li Chengfeng, and hesitated to speak. In the end, he said nothing and just touched Li Pingan's head.
"Let's eat."
Li Ping'an cheered, stood on the chair, and stretched out his short hands to reach the meat.
Seeing that she couldn't reach the meat, Qi Xiang helped her put the meat into the bowl.
Li Ping'an buried his head in his bowl and began to work hard.
Li Chengfeng put another piece of green vegetables into her bowl with chopsticks, "You can't just eat meat."
Meaty, I like it.
Cai Cai, I don’t like it.
Li Ping'an looked at Li Chengfeng pitifully, but Li Chengfeng was unmoved. Li Ping'an had no choice but to frown and pick up the vegetables in the bowl reluctantly.
Li Chengfeng stared at Li Ping'an eating vegetables, then turned to look at Qi Xiang and asked casually, "You seem to be very concerned about the affairs of the extraordinary people?"
Being able to call out the names of Director Zhang and others just by opening your mouth is something that not everyone can do.
"Really?" Qi Xiang looked a little unnatural, picking up a pair of disposable chopsticks and breaking them apart, "I'm just paying more attention to current affairs."
He took a bite of rice and asked as he picked up some food, "Uncle, are you really not going to let Li Ping'an go to the Extraordinary Children's Academy?"
Li Chengfeng nodded.
Qi Xiang looked regretful, "But they are willing to waive your tuition and fees, and also provide living allowance. It's not easy to raise a child nowadays, it costs a lot of money, and I heard that it's hard to get into the key primary schools. If you don't let her go to the Extraordinary Children's Academy, where are you going to go to primary school?"
Li Chengfeng shook his head. He had just woken up and didn't understand many real situations well enough.
But I heard that the country has implemented twelve years of compulsory education, so there will be some books to read.
It's only March now, and it's still early before school starts. Let's take it one step at a time.
Seeing his calm expression, Qi Xiang felt that he was the emperor, not the eunuch. He quickly took a few bites of rice, wiped his mouth and said, "I'm done. I'm going to work first."
Li Chengfeng stopped him and said, "I will go out to look for a job in the afternoon."
Qi Xiang was stunned and scratched his head, "That's good, I wish you all the best."
When he saw Li Ping'an struggling with Qingcai, he paused and said hesitantly, "Are you going to take Ping'an with you to look for a job?"
Li Chengfeng nodded, not feeling that there was anything wrong at all.
Qi Xiang was speechless and said, "Uncle, you are already in your forties, how can you be less self-conscious than a young man like me who has just entered the society? If you bring a child with you to look for a job, no boss would want to hire you."
Li Chengfeng gave him a strange look, "Why?"
Qi Xiang was so angry that he didn't bother to explain to him. Seeing that Li Ping'an had finished her meal, he walked up to her, bent down and asked, "Ping'an, your uncle is going to find a job to make money. Can you stay at the police station with your brother this afternoon?"
Li Ping'an's eyes lit up.
Great, no need to eat vegetables!
She stole a glance at Li Chengfeng, and seeing that he didn't object, she quickly climbed down from the chair and walked to the door without forgetting to say to Li Chengfeng: "Come on, uncle!"
Qi Xiang said perfunctorily: "Come on, uncle."
Although he had no hope that Li Chengfeng would be able to find a job in the afternoon, he still reminded him, "Remember to wash the dishes and throw away the garbage before you go out. We're leaving."
With a bang, the door closed and Li Chengfeng was the only one left in the room.
Li Chengfeng slowly finished the leftovers in Li Ping'an's bowl, put down his chopsticks and waved his hand.
The curtains opened automatically without any wind and the windows opened silently.
A flock of sparrows flew in from the window and lined up in a neat row on the table, staring at Li Chengfeng with their eyes as big as green beans.
Li Chengfeng condensed a little bit of refined spiritual energy and evenly distributed it to each sparrow. He slowly said, "Please help me wash the dishes and throw away the garbage."
The sparrows got a huge benefit and became more intelligent. They flew around Li Chengfeng chirping and happily completed their task.
Li Chengfeng sat down on the sofa. When he opened his eyes, he found that the dishes at home had been washed, the garbage had been thrown away, and the sparrows had also thoughtfully cleaned the house.
He nodded with satisfaction, stood up and closed the window, then suddenly thought of something and a ball of spiritual energy condensed at his fingertips.
"Since you are so capable, please help me find out one more thing."
With a flick of his finger, spiritual energy instantly shot out, like a meteor across the sky, with countless birds and beasts chasing after it.
A little girl downstairs in an apartment building happened to look up, saw this amazing scene, and pulled the adult who was playing with a mobile phone next to her.
"Dad, look! That's the magpie bridge the teacher talked about in class!"
Dad said a few perfunctory words without even raising his head and continued to scroll through the short video in his hand.
Li Chengfeng looked at the little girl from a distance, smiled at her, made a "hush" gesture with his hand, then closed the window, turned around and went out to look for a job.
