Chapter 96: Ending Rules: Children’s Daily Life…
Five-year-old Cheng Yiyi can be said to be the happiest child in the world. Her grandparents are all entrepreneurs, her biological father is the chairman of the huge Cheng Group in Linjiang City, her biological mother is a well-known director in the circle, and her younger sister-in-law is a popular female star in the circle. The gifts she has received on her birthdays and festivals since she was a child can fill up half of the room, not to mention the first haute couture dress she received on her first birthday, which was a children's version specially made by Tong Xuan, a famous designer of high-end luxury brands.
However, little Cheng Yiyi does not think her life is carefree. On the contrary, she still has many worries that she should have at her age.
for example--
"Daddy, I want that Barbie doll from last time."
The five-year-old child can already speak with very clear pronunciation, especially when he wants a new doll, he tries hard to put on his chubby face and pretend to be an adult.
It's a pity that she is young. She inherited her parents' good genes. Her round and bright eyes like black grapes are set in her fair and tender face. Her pretending to be serious only makes her look more adorable. If it were someone else, such as Cheng Shuyi, seeing her cute look, they would buy her a hundred dolls, let alone one. It's a pity that it was Cheng Shuze who was at home today.
"No." Cheng Shuze was not confused by Cheng Yiyi's look at all. He fixed his eyes on the screen without even raising his head, and replied lightly.
"Why?" Cheng Yiyi puffed up her face and shook the two pigtails her father had just tied for her that morning.
"Because you already have a lot of dolls."
"Not a lot," Cheng Yiyi said, looking at the Barbie doll in her hands. The doll had long, curly blond hair and was wearing the puffy, golden princess dress she had just put on. She thought hard for a moment, her face squinting. "Mom... Mom has a lot of bags too. I want one too."
"That's the bag my mother bought with her own money."
"I can also earn money to buy dolls myself."
“How do you make money?”
The question of how to make money was obviously too difficult for five-year-old Cheng Yiyi. After being quiet for a while, the child spoke again unwillingly.
"I want that beautiful dress, the one I saw yesterday. I don't have it."
"No, didn't you just receive one for your birthday?"
Tong Xuan gives Cheng Yiyi a new haute couture dress every year on her birthday. Last month, she also gave her a Barbie doll princess dress sewn with leftover fabric, which she still has in her hands.
"Then I..."
“No.”
Cheng Yiyi couldn't argue with her ruthless father. She held back her tears for a long time, and her eyes gathered into a pool of water. Seeing that her father still had no intention of compromising, she pouted and started to howl: "Wuwuwu - I want my mother -"
"Your mother won't buy it for you even if she comes." Cheng Shuze raised his head and glanced at his daughter who was standing on the crawling mat of the castle built in the living room, holding a doll in her arms, his eyebrows slightly raised.
I don’t know if it’s because he once mentioned to Jiang Yiyu during her pregnancy whether or not to have the child, but after Cheng Yiyi, he was indeed more attached to Jiang Yiyu, looking for his mother whenever he had something to do or not. It was obvious that he was the one taking care of the child more, and this little girl was very active at this energetic age, but she was a good kid when Jiang Yiyu was around.
Jiang Yiyu is really spoiled a little too much. She has bought several rounds of dolls. If she buys more, the house will be flooded with them. Cheng Shuze feels that he needs to take on the responsibility of educating the child when Jiang Yiyu is overly indulgent.
Jiang Yiyu was going out of town for a project meeting and would be away for two or three days. Before leaving this morning, she asked him worriedly, "Can you take care of your daughter by yourself?" What was so difficult about taking care of her? Cheng Shuze was now accustomed to moving his work to the living room and letting Cheng Yiyi play in the living room so that he could watch her while she worked.
Two-thirds of the first day went smoothly. Cheng Shuze felt that it was no big deal if the child cried for a while. After raising an eyebrow to confirm that Cheng Yiyi was just being unreasonable, he was about to continue working when his cell phone rang.
Jiang Yiyu made a video call as soon as she was told who would be there.
"Aren't you looking for your mother? Look, your mother is calling." Cheng Shuze stood up from his seat and answered the phone.
"How was your day today?" The camera on Jiang Yiyu's side was facing half of her face but it was shaking back and forth. Judging from the arrangement, she was probably still at the meeting site and called directly after the meeting was over.
"Not bad, have you eaten yet?"
"I ate at the hotel's buffet. Hey, I have the third draft of Teacher Tang's script." Jiang Yiyu paused in the middle of a call and went to talk to someone else. Cheng Shuze waited for a while before she came back. "Look, Yiyi, what are you doing?"
"Mom~" As soon as she heard her mother calling, Cheng Yiyi quickly wiped away her tears in front of the camera, so quickly that it seemed as if the tantrum she had just cried was not her way of crying at all. She smiled sweetly and obediently.
The double-dealing look made Cheng Shuze, who was sitting on a small stool holding a mobile phone, squint his eyes outside the screen.
"Baby, how was your day today~" Jiang Yiyu spoke to her daughter in a sweet tone that she had never used before with him, and Cheng Shuze's eyebrows twitched again.
"Wow, Director Jiang, is this your daughter? So cute~" Several little girls on Jiang Yiyu's side shouted.
When the actors in the same group saw Director Jiang on the video, the delicate and beautiful little girl opposite was so adorable, the representative of high-quality human offspring, and they all came over to watch curiously. Jiang Yiyu asked each of them to call her sister, and amid the praises of "so cute, so cute" from all over the world, she sent the crew away and looked back at her precious daughter whom she hadn't seen for almost seven or eight hours.
The little girl also tied two small braids. Cheng Shuze's skill was quite good and he tied them quite well, but the girl didn't look very happy.
"What's wrong? Are you feeling unhappy?"
"Mom, I want a new doll." Cheng Yiyi blinked and complained, "Dad won't buy me one."
"What doll?"
Cheng Shuze snorted coldly: "Still like a Barbie doll, don't you see how many there are already?"
As for Barbie dolls, almost every time a new one comes out, the child wants one. She almost forgot how many she has bought.
“You already have a lot.”
"But I don't have the one from yesterday," Cheng Yiyi said anxiously, gesturing with her hands and feet, "the green one."
"Haven't you had several green skirts?"
"It's different!" Cheng Yiyi tried to describe the beautiful new dress over and over again using all the words she had learned so far. Jiang Yiyu was getting really impatient.
"Okay, okay, Cheng Shuze, you buy it for her."
Cheng Shuze, who had known this would happen, twitched his lips and said, "Jiang Yiyun, you just said that you can't buy dolls anymore."
"What can I do? Can't you see your daughter making a fuss here? Just buy her one. This is the last one. You can't buy her another next time. I have something else to do. I'll hang up first. Bye, baby. Mommy has to go to work."
"Bye, Mommy~" Cheng Yiyi, who was finally getting her baby, waved her little hand. Cheng Shuze, who didn't even have a private farewell, only got a black screen with the phone hung up.
Cheng Yiyi had already rushed over and hung on his arm, his eyes sparkling: "Baby!"
Okay, okay, this is the last time forever. Cheng Shuze sighed and opened the shopping app. The big data push was already filled with all kinds of dolls.
"See which one you want? This is the last one, okay? Next time, no matter what your mom says, I won't buy it for you."
The courier delivered it urgently, and the order placed in the afternoon arrived the next day. Cheng Yiyi finally got the doll she had been dreaming of, which came with a large box of various pretty clothes. She enthusiastically started playing the dress-up game alone again. There shouldn't be any more problems for a while, so Cheng Shuze went online for a meeting.
In a meeting attended by the group's biggest boss, even though President Cheng was only online, the other participants were extremely serious for fear of making any mistakes. However, there seemed to be some small noises from President Cheng's side occasionally, which sounded like children's noises, but even if it was like that, no one really dared to think too much about it, and their whole attention was still focused on the meeting.
Then, in full view of everyone, a child's face appeared in the zoomed-in image of Mr. Cheng's camera.
This kid is so cute...
No, wait, isn't this Mr. Cheng's camera...?
Cheng Yiyi held her new doll in one hand and Cheng Shuze's legs with the other. She was playing with it when the braid she had braided this morning came loose, so she came over and asked to have it re-braided. Cheng Shuze picked her up with one hand and sat her on his lap. Cheng Yiyi swung her legs quietly, her big eyes staring at the screen curiously.
Everyone in the room was stunned. The manager who was speaking suddenly stopped talking. They knew that Mr. Cheng was married with a daughter, but it was the first time they saw Mr. Cheng's child. Moreover, Mr. Cheng's braiding posture in the camera seemed a little too skillful. He must have braided his daughter's hair many times.
The cold-faced CEO of the company was so gentle at home. The contrast was so great that everyone forgot to continue reporting and stared at him.
But the child was very curious and asked softly, "Why is there no sound? There was a sound just now."
While combing her hair, Mr. Cheng took a moment to glance at the screen and asked casually, "Are you offline?"
"No... no no no, Mr. Cheng, shall I continue?" The general manager continued the report tentatively, but his eyes were not on the PPT and he couldn't help but look at the image of Mr. Cheng combing his braids in the camera.
Some female colleagues who were brave enough and quick-handed took photos and screenshots secretly while no one was paying attention. They looked at their phones and simultaneously shared the big news of "Mr. Cheng braided his daughter's hair" with others.
After Cheng Shuze finished braiding her hair, he put Cheng Yiyi on the ground and said, "Go play by yourself for a while. Dad has a meeting."
"Oh," Cheng Yiyi obediently left the camera's frame, and after a while ran back, "My baby!"
He gave her the doll on the table and finally coaxed the little ancestor away. Cheng Shuze looked back at the screen and saw that everyone had a dumbfounded and demented expression.
Cheng Shuze rapped his knuckles on the table, and finally returned to his usual stern demeanor, completely different from his previous gentleness. "Have you seen enough? Where's the report?"
