“Yeah, right. Did you think that I’m unaware that you actually feel pretty gleeful in your heart?”
Li Jinnan poured himself a gla.s.s of water and took a sip.
Li Sicheng maintained the faint smile on his lips, and he shook his head slowly. “Dasu is smart, and I’m very glad. But it’s not necessarily a good thing for a six-year-old child to skip too many grades. Ultimately, his friend is two years older than him. I don’t have much of an opinion about Chu skipping many grades, but I will not allow my own child to do so.”
“You really wouldn’t allow it?”
“Yeah.” Li Sicheng leaned against the sofa and said slowly, “Firstly, there is already a great difference in height between him and his cla.s.smates. To study in the fourth grade is already a very big jump that I’m allowing him to take.”
“Pfft…” Li Jinnan almost spat out his drink. “You spoil him too much. Fourth grade? Can he manage it?”
“He can.” Li Sicheng spoke the truth and said, “I looked at his results, and he came out on top.”
Li Jinnan’s lips twitched. “Each of your children is more devilish than the previous.”
“Oh, I forgot. There’s also your youngest daughter…”
“Yeah…”
“I suppose this is what is meant by ‘everyone has their strengths and weaknesses,’” Li Jinnan said intently as he looked toward Li Jianyue. “This little girl is the only normal kid in your family.”
“She’s also smart. She’s just playful and can’t settle her heart down to learn. Once she’s set her heart on learning, she’ll definitely perform better than kids of the same age.”
Li Jinnan thought that Li Sicheng was bragging. As he sipped on his water, he couldn’t help but wonder if his child would also be as devilish.
‘Hmm… If it’s a boy, it wouldn’t be a bad idea to throw him into the army. If it’s a girl, then she’ll be raised at home. I’ll feed her well and doll her up beautifully.’
Li Jinnan couldn’t help but break into a smile when this thought crossed his mind. As he watched Li Jianyue, he asked Li Sicheng, “Both boys from your family are so outstanding, so what kind of guy should our girl look for in the future? Let’s not talk about how much more outstanding or impressive he is compared to Dasu and Mosen, but surely he can’t be too far off from them?”
Li Jianqian and Li Mosen were indeed too outstanding in comparison to peers of the same age. When one compared an apple to an apple, it was rare for one to surpa.s.s the other.
Li Sicheng obviously had wondered about this before. Feeling a slight headache, he replied, “As her parents, this is not a problem that we should consider. We’ll let her choose on her own when she grows up.”
“Ah.” Li Jianyue seemed to have sensed that they were talking about her, and she turned her head around and said, “Daddy, I almost forgot to tell you! I called Brother last night. He said that they’re not so uptight with their academics now, so he wants Grandpa and Grandma to bring him back home to have fun for a few days before he returns to school.”
A faint look of surprise flashed across Li Sicheng’s face, but it quickly disappeared as he nodded his head and said, “Why didn’t you tell me yesterday?”
Li Jianyue stuck out her tongue and said, “I forgot. I only remembered it now.”
“All right,” Li Sicheng replied leisurely before he picked up his phone and dialed the phone number that he had registered for his son.
Li Jianqian was playing football. The indoor football field was wide and s.p.a.cious, and there was only him and Yu Chulin. When he heard his cellphone ring, his eyes shone.
Turning his head around to look at his cellphone, he yelled out, “Chu, I’m going to go answer a call!”
Yu Chulin was panting from playing, and when he saw Li Jianqian take off, he immediately gave chase and yelled out, “Jianqian, how could you do that!”
Li Jianqian waved his hand at him and shouted, “It’s probably my dad. Wait for me to come back.”
