Chapter 228 Don’t listen to Xu Ji, he’s talking nonsense!
Sheng Yuxiao carried the duckling all the way into the house.
The duck asked, "Are you still going to class tomorrow?"
"superior."
"Sister Ruying said that universities abroad are very busy."
"I'm very busy." Sheng Yuxiao said, turned around and made himself a cup of coffee.
Just because he was too busy, he had no interest in joining that group of people, which was essentially just a way to add a name and bully others under the guise of a high-sounding gang.
The duckling guessed correctly.
There are hierarchies within the fraternity, and the hierarchy is very strict and clear, with discrimination from top to bottom everywhere.
Like Green and his gang, they are just low-level gangsters who think that throwing dances and parties, bullying others without moral bottom line, and even stepping on teachers are the happiness of fraternity that they can imagine.
In fact, if you really want to get to a higher level...it's not just superficial.
They invited him to join the club not so that he could indulge in debauchery.
Instead, he wanted to catch his father through him.
Then, through his father, he laid a channel to control China's economy, binding them into a community of interests.
All the rich second generation in the top circles in China will be exposed to this kind of thing when they go abroad.
He was afraid that Ning Heng would be naive and would just take the bait, so he even called Ning Heng to tell her about it.
The structure of this organization is much more complex than the duckling imagined.
So he never thought of turning these low-level guys into his own minions from the beginning. There is no point in playing this trick here.
It doesn’t matter that the duckling doesn’t understand these things yet.
Bigger things should be left to the bigger ducklings to learn.
"You still have classes to attend... I'll wait for you to come back to the apartment." The duckling's voice sounded.
"Wait for me? Wait for me for what? Come with me to class." Sheng Yuxiao's tone still did not allow for rejection.
"Can I go?"
"Why not?"
Sheng Yuxiao opened the bathroom door: "Go take a shower, your head is all sweaty."
Xiaoya nodded and walked towards the bathroom, while Sheng Yuxiao walked outside and said to the bodyguard who followed him, "I've booked a hotel apartment nearby for you to stay in for the time being."
The bodyguard nodded blankly.
They had all been abroad for a long time and did not know Sheng Yuxiao. They just thought that this young master was generous and considerate.
"Leave another number." Sheng Yuxiao bit off the pen tip, tore off a piece of paper and leaned it against the door frame, then wrote his own number first and handed it over.
The bodyguards also quickly left their numbers.
This is for safety reasons so that the young lady can be protected at all times.
This was thoughtful and saved them trouble.
"You can go now." Sheng Yuxiao raised his chin.
The bodyguards finally asked a question: "Is there a babysitter to take care of the young lady?"
Sheng Yuxiao nodded: "Yes."
The bodyguards were finally completely relieved. They called Wei Wenjun to report before going out. After confirming that everything was correct, they went to the booked hotel apartment.
Sheng Yuxiao pushed Xiaoya's luggage inside, called someone to send milk, then waited outside with a towel and a hair dryer.
——Yes, he is the nanny.

Sheng Yuxiao had no classes in the afternoon, so he accompanied Xiaoya to the mall.
"What do you want to buy?" Sheng Yuxiao asked, and then said, "Isn't it time for you to get a new schoolbag?"
"No change. I'm buying you a birthday present." The duck stopped at the entrance of the mall and looked left and right.
She asked, "What do you like?"
The corners of Sheng Yuxiao's mouth curled up slightly, but his brows sank.
He slowly uttered three words: "Revolving lantern."
He added: "It's still a surprise to make it by myself."
The duckling quickly explained: "That's actually my handwork."
"Yes, it's a handicraft homework that won an award." Sheng Yuxiao emphasized the three words "won an award".
Sheng Yuxiao squatted down in front of her, trying not to look so sour, and asked, "What kind of handicraft did you give Qin Sui for his birthday this year?"
The duckling's voice became quieter: "Origami homework, no prize was won."
"Then when can I receive such a surprise?" Sheng Yuxiao asked, staring into her eyes.
"That one is very cheap... the materials cost thirteen dollars."
“But I made it with my own hands.”
“It doesn’t matter if it’s cheap?”
“It doesn’t matter how cheap it is.”
"So what do you like? I'll make it for you."
Sheng Yuxiao pursed his lips: "Can't you give me a little unknown surprise?"
“My aesthetic taste is not very good…”
Sheng Yuxiao interrupted quickly: "My uncle said that?"
The duck nodded.
"So that's why you decided to go to the mall and let me choose for myself?"
The duckling continued to nod.
Sheng Yuxiao lowered his head and chuckled. It turned out that he didn't take it lightly, but took it too seriously.
He raised his head again and said seriously, "Don't listen to him, he's talking nonsense."
"I see. Let's go back then."
Sheng Yuxiao carried the child on his shoulders very neatly: "Let's go."
Sheng Yuxiao said he would take her to class, and he really took her with him.
The tables, chairs and benches in the auditorium were all very high, and even though the duckling had grown a little taller, it was still a little far from the ground when it sat on them.
"Step on this." Sheng Yuxiao threw his bag at her feet.
This immediately attracted the attention of other students.
Sheng Yuxiao brought the duckling with him, going in and out all day long.
Wait until the last class is over.
"Sheng is difficult to deal with, but I think the little girl next to him should be easy to deal with. Go ahead, Green, maybe try to buy her something that little girls like, and then invite her to our party."
The foreign boy sitting in the last row of the auditorium smiled and patted Green on the shoulder.
Green wanted to say, no, that little girl is not easy to deal with!
She can hit people painfully!
But the people around me no longer wanted to listen.
Green had no choice but to get up and chase after him.
Sheng Yuxiao walked very slowly with the duckling.
There were portraits of famous alumni of the school hanging in the corridor. After walking a few steps, the duck suddenly stopped, looked up and said, "Mr. Jefferson."
Sheng Yuxiao raised his eyes and glanced at him and said, "He used to be a member of the Brotherhood."
Green happened to be approaching and heard their conversation. Despite the pressing gazes behind him, he forced a smile and said, "Yes, he works for the Pentagon and is a very outstanding person."
"So..." You really won't join us? Green couldn't finish the second half of his sentence.
The ducky whispered, "So he's in the fraternity, too."
Sheng Yuxiao heard her tone was different, so he asked, "Do you know him?"
The duck nodded.
Green interrupted: "Most of us know Mr. Jefferson, but I didn't expect that the Chinese children also know him?"
The duckling then continued, "I spoke to him on the phone yesterday."
Green's voice stopped abruptly.
ah?
ah?
Is this the understanding you are talking about?
It wasn't until Xiaoya and Sheng Yuxiao walked away that Green came to his senses.
Behind him, a young foreign boy came over and asked, "What did you say?"
Green said blankly, "That kid, she knows Mr. Jefferson and they are very close. She said they talked on the phone yesterday."
The boy shrugged, looking regretful. "Oh, that's too bad. The politician Jefferson supports is our opponent in the election. We have different philosophies and it's hard to get along. Let's forget about it."
"Then let him..."
"Of course, we should not offend him. We should maintain a good relationship."
"Aren't they a rival faction? Then why..."
"Only elementary school students would show hostility on their faces. Sometimes, the boundary between friend and enemy doesn't need to be so clear. Even our ideas may actually be the same, but we need to raise different banners in order to attract different votes, do you understand? Oh, you don't understand, your father is just a dentist. How can you understand these things?" The other party could hardly hide his contempt.
Green wasn't angry at all.
He listened carefully, and now he really felt that following Sheng Yuxiao was really profitable and feasible!

Soon it was Sheng Yuxiao's birthday.
The Sheng family, including the Xu family, all came...
As soon as Xu Ji entered the room, he tilted his head and smiled and said, "My good nephew, you should thank me. You should have received a very beautiful gift."
He asked, "Where is the gift the duck gave you?"
Sheng Yuxiao carefully picked up a ball of mud that was not quite in shape.
Xu Ji was horrified: "What is this? This is not what I taught you!"
"I clearly suggested to Xiaoya that you choose the gift you like yourself." Xu Ji paused and looked at his nephew suspiciously.
"Has your aesthetic sense also gone awry?"
Sheng Yuxiao frowned, his eyebrows were sharp, but the corners of his lips were soft: "Little Duck made it by herself, I like it very much."
Xu Ji said calmly and numbly: "It's confirmed. Your aesthetic sense is indeed distorted."
"Uncle Xu." The duckling called not far away.
Xu Ji looked at her.
There's no hope for this.
The duck took the initiative to approach him and asked, "Uncle Xu, do you dislike it?"
Xu Ji moved his lips.
The duckling continued: "Then I won't give you a present on your birthday next time."
Xu Ji's smile remained unchanged, but the light in his eyes stopped instantly.
