This instantly threw the kindergarten into chaos; how could the arranged order be disrupted so casually?
"Cute, why didnât your dad come? Didnât he say heâd come to participate?"
"Something unavoidable came up suddenly, I couldnât do anything about it! âź(âŻ_â°)â" Gu Mengmeng said helplessly with a shrug.
"What are we supposed to do then!" They canât let Gu Mengmeng enter alone, can they?
The kindergarten teacher spotted Fang Eleven and Fang Jiujiu, pondering that she couldnât let some unrelated person accompany Gu Mengmeng in, could she? In what capacity would that even be?
But they were worried that if they put Gu Mengmeng at the end, Fourth Master Gu would find out and theyâd be in deep trouble!
Eleven noticed the teacherâs worries and said reassuringly, "Itâs fine, let them go in first. Mr. Gu couldnât come due to an emergency and Cute is good friends with Jiujiu, so she asked me to take care of Cute. We will simply go in last."
"This... Isnât this inappropriate?" The kindergarten teacher was still somewhat worried.
"Itâs fine!" Eleven reassured them, "I will explain to Mr. Gu, donât worry about it, itâs no big deal what order we go in."
"Then... Iâm counting on you!"
The issue regarding their entrance into the venue was settled.
In fact, they were overthinking. Would Gu Liancheng really make trouble for their kindergarten just because they were entering last?
They knew Cute was the daughter of Gu Liancheng, he wouldnât pick on them. Theyâve done their best upto this point and donât need to worry further.
As expected, Eleven and his party were the last to enter. As for Gu Mengmeng, she didnât care about this either. To her, there was no difference between entering early or late as long as she was with Eleven.
The host invited Mayor Liang to the stage to deliver the opening speech for the performance.
Eleven thought that Gu Liancheng should have been part of this too.
They sat in the last row, their view wasnât the best, but it didnât matter.
Occasionally, they heard the kids nearby discussing something, casting glances their way every now and then, and their parents would look over as well, talking in hushed voices.
Eleven, single-handedly attending with two kids, was naturally eye-catching; it was hard not to attract attention anyway.
A glance around the room revealed that they were indeed the only party attended by a single person; all the other families were parents present.
"Eleven, Iâm not worried about being laughed at," Gu Mengmeng said fretfully, "But in the upcoming parent-child activity, youâre the only one. How can we compete with others!"
Afraid of being laughed at? Now thatâs a joke! Whoâs their dad? If they revealed it, it would scare the hell out of all of them!
"Itâs no big deal that Mr. Gu didnât come... Hey Eleven! Thereâs still time, right? How about asking Daddy Ye Mo to save the day!"
"Daddy Ye Mo?" Before Eleven could answer, Fang Jiujiu crossed his arms and said, "They might start fighting, ah, more childish than us."
"Thatâs true..."
The two kids began to discuss amongst themselves.
"Who are you calling childish? You two little chatterboxes, do you need a lesson for not having respect, having the audacity to talk about your father like this!"
The three of them turned around simultaneously.
Gu Liancheng was squatting behind them, his hands each patting a little head.
He ruffled their hair saying: "Who gave you the courage to speak ill of me behind my back."
"Ah, Mr. Gu!" Gu Mengmeng cried out with delight.
"How come youâre here?" Fang Jiujiu frowned.
That was exactly what Eleven wanted to ask as well!
Why was he here!
