Genius Daddy in the City Chapter 532 - You Can Call Me Brother, but Not "Little" Brother!

Chapter 532: You Can Call Me Brother, but Not “Little” Brother!

According to Su Yuhan, Mengmeng was going to Jinling this time as one of Tiannan’s children representatives to partic.i.p.ate in an art compet.i.tion. The rest of the partic.i.p.ants were from the famous kindergartens in Tiannan. Meanwhile, the ones leading the team were all art teachers from the kindergartens.

Ye Chen left with Mengmeng and Qianqian after breakfast. He was not driving as they were travelling far away.

When the three of them arrived at Little Swan Kindergarten, they realized that there were over ten people gathered at the entrance. Some were parents, and some were children.

Standing before them was a lady in a white dress. She was around 25 years old, and she was very pretty. She wore a pair of black-framed gla.s.ses, which added to her composedness.

“Ms. Cang!”

Before Ye Chen got close, Mengmeng ran over like she was flying. She hugged the lady in the long dress tightly.

“You’re finally here, Fellow Ye Mengmeng. I thought you’d no longer partic.i.p.ate in the compet.i.tion,” the lady bent down and patted the little girl’s head.

The little girl only pointed at Ye Chen after he walked closer. She said as if she was showing off, “Ms. Cang, this is my daddy.

Daddy, this is my art teacher, Ms Cang!”

The lady in the long dress lifted her eyes to take a good look at Ye Chen. She took the initiative to stretch her hand out enthusiastically, “h.e.l.lo, Mr. Ye. I’m Ye Mengmeng’s art teacher, Cang Shuxue.”

“Well, h.e.l.lo, Ms. Cang. I’m Ye Mengmeng’s father. My name is Ye Chen,” Ye Chen shook her hand politely.

He had a strange feeling after saying that.

The girl in front of him had the surname Cang. He wondered how men felt when they called her ‘Ms. Cang’.

One glance at his expression was all Cang Shuxue needed to realize that he was thinking something else. She could not help but blush.

The reason being many people had the same expression as Ye Chen did. She even took the effort to ask her best friend who Ms. Cang was. It turned out even her best friend had the same odd expression. She almost fainted from embarra.s.sment when she learned about Ms. Cang[1].

‘So this bunch of men called me Ms. Cang.

They’re thinking something so filthy!’

At that moment, a pot-bellied man holding the hand of a little fatty said impatiently, “Ms. Cang, since everyone is here, shouldn’t we get going? Can we not waste time?”

He glanced at Ye Chen coldly after saying that. His eyes were filled with disdain. He was going to another province to bring glory to Tiannan. It was embarra.s.sing for him to dress so casually.

“That’s right. I came all the way here because I wanted my son to get first place in the compet.i.tion. Can you hurry up?” A plump middle-aged woman with heavy makeup said in a sarcastic manner.

“We’re leaving now. Get in, everyone!”

Cang Shuxue smiled sweetly. Subsequently, she took the lead and walked to a city bus by the road. She said to everyone, “Everyone, there are many of us on the trip. In order to unify the management, we can’t afford to sit in cars. I’m so sorry that you guys will have to take the bus!”

“Isn’t this condition terrible? If I had known about this earlier, I would have driven my Ferrari.”

“That’s right. It’s so dirty. How are we supposed to travel in that? We’re people with high status.” The middle-aged woman grumbled, but she led the child into the bus anyway.

Cang Shuxue was extremely embarra.s.sed.

“Let’s go!”

Ye Chen did not mind that. He held Mengmeng in one hand and Qianqian in the other as they walked onto the bus.

As soon as she sat down, Mengmeng stood up and pointed at a little boy sitting across her, “Daddy, let me introduce you. This is my best friend, Li Erguo!”

Ye Chen lifted his head and looked over. He saw a little fatty who was four or five years old. At that moment, he could not stop eating a bag of spicy snacks. There was a middle-aged man who looked haggard and old sitting next to him.

The little fatty stopped eating and smirked at Ye Chen after Mengmeng was done introducing them, “h.e.l.lo, Uncle Ye.”

After saying that, he hesitated for a moment before handing over the bag of spicy snacks. With a face full of reluctance, he asked, “Uncle Ye, Mengmeng, do you guys want some?”

“Rascal, do you think everyone is like you? Eating is all you know.”

Before Ye Chen could say anything, the middle-aged man sitting next to the little fatty scolded him angrily. He then nodded at Ye Chen, “h.e.l.lo, Brother Ye. My name is Li Yongmin.”

Ye Chen smiled lightly.

“Daddy, it’s tiring to ride a bus. If I don’t eat, how can I replenish my energy? If I don’t have energy, how can I showcase my strength in the compet.i.tion?” The fat boy pouted.

“Hehehe!” Qianqian giggled immediately. She could always find something funny about her peers. She could not help but ask, “Little brother, why are you called Li Ergou?”

“D-Don’t call me little brother!”

The little fatty was immediately upset, “You can call me brother, but don’t use the word ‘little’!”

“Why not?”

It was Mengmeng and Qianqian’s turn to be confused.

As the little fatty ate, he mumbled, “My grandpa said that men can be small anywhere, but their brothers shouldn’t be small. Otherwise, their wives will run away with other men.”

Qianqian and Mengmeng still looked confused.

“You rascal!”

Li Yongmin was so angry that he slapped him.

Ye Chen was between laughter and tears.

“Hey, fatty, you still haven’t told me why you’re called Li Ergou,” Mengmeng held her chin with her hand and looked at him curiously.

The little fatty burped and said nonchalantly, “It’s simple. Every time my daddy gets drunk, he’ll hang me up and beat me. Furthermore, he only drinks Erguotou!”

“Hahaha!” Now even Ye Chen could not help but laugh.

He realized that this little fatty was quite interesting.

‘How dare he say that in front of his own father?’

“I’ll beat you to death, you little b.a.s.t.a.r.d!”

Li Yongmin’s face instantly turned green from the anger, and he gave him another slap. “I hit you because you misbehaved. You’re so young, and you aren’t learning to behave. Not only did you steal your grandpa’s cigarette, you also put the wooden sticks in the cigarette box and pretended nothing happened.”

“Grandpa’s eyes aren’t good. If I don’t do that, wouldn’t he be suspicious?” The little fatty did not cry after being slapped. Instead, he started mumbling as if it made sense for him to do that.

He humored everyone in the bus, everyone laughed.

…

While the bus was moving, Cang Shuxue introduced the art compet.i.tion to everyone when they reached Jinling.

The compet.i.tion venue was held at the Jinling Gallery, and the compet.i.tion was scheduled at 2 p.m.. It would officially end at 3 p.m.. This would mean that the compet.i.tion would only last for an hour, and it was an open compet.i.tion. The tools would be prepared at the venue.

Towards the end, Cang Shuxue spilled the most important information, “The top three contestants will not only be recommended to study at the National Youth Palace, they will also receive prize money of 100,000, 50,000, or 20,000 yuan.

As for the first prize, it is said that the Art Saint, Master Wu Wenshan would take the winner as his disciple and teach the disciple art himself!”
