Chapter 132 The truth behind Nian Nian's sleepiness
Shi Guilin hurried and waited for three red lights before finally arriving at the kindergarten.
He was wearing a suit and walking in a hurry. In order to keep warm, he took the camel-colored wool coat that was placed on the sofa in Shi Lihan's office before leaving the company. When he got out of the car, he put it on his body with his back hand to keep out the cold.
It only took a few minutes to walk from the kindergarten gate to the teacher's office. Shi Guilin arrived without any effort. He stopped in front of the office door and knocked. "Teacher Tan, I'm Shi Nianzhu's father."
Soon, Shi Guilin pushed the door open and walked in. In the office, the first person that caught his eye was Nian Nian, whose face was clean, her eyelashes were wet, and her eyes were red.
And Jiang Duan, with a large, shiny stain on his chest. Finally, there was Teacher Tan, who was accompanying him.
Just by looking at the miserable mess on Jiang Duan's clothes, one can get a glimpse of how funny and funny Nian Nian's face must have been when she was sleeping. It was probably no different from a rat falling into an oil tank.
Even though Shi Guilin had already learned the process and details of the development of the incident over the phone, he was still quite shocked.
He was already 25 years old. He had been a star and a company slave. He had seen all kinds of weird things, and at this moment, he couldn't help but blush.
"Papa." Seeing Shi Guilin, who had clearly rushed over from the company, Nian Nian instinctively called out, taking two steps forward and opening his arms as if to embrace him. Then, as if remembering why Shi Guilin had hurried over, he pulled his hands back into his long sleeves, clenching his knuckles around the cuffs.
"Papa." He called again, his voice much weaker this time.
Shi Guilin pulled him to his side, glanced at him, quickly turned away, squatted down, faced Jiang Duan, and briefly checked the extent of the "damage" to his clothes.
"Duan, I'm sorry, Nian Nian got you all covered in oil. Do you have any clothes to change into? Otherwise, go home with Uncle Shi and Nian Nian first."
Nian Nian, who was temporarily ignored by Shi Guilin, bit her lower lip nervously, and her two feet that were standing proudly slowly turned into a guilty look, making her look honest and obedient.
Jiang Duan noticed it, touched his head, and turned to Shi Guilin and said, "No need, Uncle Shi, my mother will bring me some clothes. She's on her way."
"Take Nian Nian home, he's really sleepy."
Teacher Tan agreed earnestly, "Yes, Shi Nianzhu's father. You didn't see it with your own eyes, so you might not be clear about the situation. Shi Nianzhu was so sleepy that he couldn't even hold his chopsticks. Otherwise, I wouldn't have suggested you take him home to catch up on some sleep. I called him many times before he woke up."
"Also, according to the other kids in the Xingxing class, Shi Nianzhu fell asleep for a while after talking in class this morning."
"Ah." Teacher Tan seemed to be both impressed and sighing. "In all my years as a teacher, this is the first time I've seen a child so sleepy. Shi Nianzhu's father, did the child stay up too late last night?"
"...I didn't make it." Shi Guilin smiled awkwardly, "Maybe my body clock hasn't adjusted to the new normal during the winter break."
As he explained this, he glanced at Nian Nian out of the corner of his eye.
Nian Nian desperately agreed: "Yes, yes, Nian Nian didn't set the alarm."
“…”
The air suddenly became very quiet.
Shi Guilin's expression froze for a moment. He smiled awkwardly but politely at Teacher Tan, then swung his other hand to his side. His large palm precisely covered Nian Nian's mouth, right in the blind spot of his vision.
Her mouth was manually shut, and Nian Nian's round eyes could only roll around in vain.
Teacher Tan was amused by Nian Nian. The image of her stubbornly refusing to be wiped faded from her mind, replaced once again by her adorable side. She said to Shi Guilin, "Parents should still help their children develop good habits of going to bed and waking up early; it's good for their growth and development."
"Yes, yes." Shi Guilin cooperated very well with the teaching work and repeatedly affirmed, "Anyway, thank you Teacher Tan for taking care of our Nian Nian today. I'm sorry to bother you. I will take Nian Nian home to rest first."
"Okay." Teacher Tan bent down and waved to Nian Nian, "See you tomorrow, little Shi Nianzhu."
"See you tomorrow, Teacher Tan." He took Shi Guilin's hand and said goodbye to the teacher. He turned around and said goodbye to Jiang Duan, who was also in the office. "Brother Duan, Nian Nian has gone home first. Tomorrow, Nian Nian will bring you strawberries for the red panda."
It was a decorative figurine from Forest Paradise. He wanted to give Jiang Duan another one to repay his kindness today.
Jiang Duan: "Yes. You can go back."
Nian Nian held Shi Guilin's arm like a small pendant and hung all the way into the car.
After Shi Guilin put the safety seat in the back seat for him to sit in, he turned around, opened the car door and got into the driver's seat.
Sitting alone in the back seat, Nian Nian felt too tired to move her legs. "Papa, where's the driver?"
Shi Guilin steered the car, watching the road as he said, "You're waiting for me to release you in the office. You don't have the time to wait for the driver to pick you up."
Nian Nian muttered: "Gem? What is that?"
Shi Guilin didn't answer, but asked instead: "Why are you so sleepy? It shouldn't be like this. Didn't you go to bed at 8 o'clock yesterday?"
"Yeah, yeah." Nian Nian pouted, "I went to bed earlier than Yuan Yuan."
That means going to bed earlier than a dog.
The car turned a corner, and Shi Guilin continued to question: "Did you fall asleep and wake up again, playing secretly?"
This time Nian Nian didn't respond immediately.
Shi Guilin keenly noticed the key point: "You really woke up in the middle of the night? You used my phone to play Happy Candy Crush?"
"No, no." Nian Nian felt slandered. "It was Yuanyuan! It wouldn't sleep! It bit Nian Nian's pillow, and Nian Nian had to use a lot of effort to drive it away."
He spoke with a righteous tone.
"...Are you sure they're going to rush over?" Shi Guilin was doubtful, but his tone was firm, "Don't tell me they're just playing together."
Nian Nian fell silent.
Shi Guilin was so angry that he almost laughed.
He actually stayed up all night playing with the dog happily.
It was only in the past two years that his condition improved and his sleep quality at night improved, otherwise neither the cub nor the dog would have been able to escape.
The truth was revealed, Shi Guilin had nothing more to ask, and the two fell silent.
During this period of time, Nian Nian began to feel sleepy again.
Shi Guilin saw it through the rearview mirror and shouted at him, "Don't sleep. You're all alone in the back. If you fall down and no one helps you, you'll be doomed if you get hurt. Hang on."
Nian Nian forced herself to open her eyelids and mumbled, "Nian Nian, today... I have been... holding on..."
Everyone who noticed he was sleepy urged him to keep going.
Shi Guilin was convinced, stepped on the accelerator and accelerated evenly.
Soon, they arrived home. Shi Guilin parked the car, took the sleeping baby out of the safety seat in the back seat, and carried him directly to the big bed in the bedroom on the second floor of the villa.
As soon as Nian Nian's face touched the quilt, she rubbed it subconsciously and sank deeper into the quilt.
After persisting for a whole day, the cub finally fell into a sweet sleep.
