“He’s already five! He’s not a young kid anymore,” Li Sicheng looked at them and said. “When I was five, I was already enrolled in primary school. It’s not good to keep these kids at home for too long. When we get back, I’ll have Cheng You make some arrangements to send them to school.”
Su Qianci wasn’t ready to part with them so soon and protested, “But, they’re doing fine at home…”
“There’s a limit to how much we can teach them at home. They need to socialize with other kids a little more.” Li Sicheng paused for a moment and continued, “If they don’t mix around outside, how will they ever find out how outstanding they are?”
That statement alone was enough to convince Su Qianci. Her face broke out in a smile. After thinking for a moment, she asked Li Jianqian, “How do you feel about going to school soon?”
“I’m fine with anything.” Li Jianqian’s expression was neutral and calm. When he spoke, he kept glancing at Li Sicheng. In the depths of his little black eyes held his indescribable respect for his father.
Ou Ming could tell that the child had heard and understood everything that Li Sicheng had said to him. How intelligent! Like father, like son, indeed! He is exactly like Li Sicheng.
“Will there be many people if we go to school?” Li Jianyue excitedly asked. “Can I be in the same class as Older Brother Mosen?”
“Sure,” Li Sicheng good-naturedly said as he looked at how excited his daughter was. “If you’re able to get in.”
Li Jianyue was elated and cheered, “I’ll definitely be able to get in!”
“Well, that means you’ll have to study hard when we get home, Li Jianqian,” Li Sicheng said.
Li Jianqian immediately straightened up and looked toward Li Sicheng. “Yes, Dad.”
“Li Mosen, help you little sister with her revision when we get home,” Li Sicheng said.
Li Mosen looked over happily and said, “I will!”
“You’re already six,” Li Sicheng said. “I’ll hire a home tutor for you and enroll you in primary school directly.”
“Sure, Dad!” Li Mosen was ecstatic. “What about Dasu and Ersu? Will they be in the same class as me?”
“Dasu will be in the same class as you,” Li Sicheng said. “As for Ersu…”
Li Jianyue was dissatisfied when she heard that and yelled out, “I’ll get in! Daddy, don’t you look down on me!”
Li Sicheng chuckled and pinched her little cheeks as he remarked, “Finish your dinner quickly.”
The whole family sat together, happy and content. They were soon done with dinner. Yu Lili invited them over to tour the new home she and Ou Ming shared.
This was Yu Lili’s first time staying in the villa. Just as she thought she had finished showing them around the place, Li Jianyue suddenly called out, “Auntie, there’s another door upstairs! What’s it for?”
A door upstairs? Yu Lili looked up when she heard the little girl. In the small space beside the staircase there was a little door that was so inconspicuous it wouldn’t have been noticed if one wasn’t looking for it. The door was barely big enough for an adult to walk through.
Ou Ming stepped forward and replied, “That’s the holographic room. Auntie Lili hasn’t been inside before. Come, let me take you inside.”
Li Jianyue didn’t understand what holographic meant, but she nodded her head eagerly upon hearing the invitation.
Ou Ming suddenly produced a remote control out of the blue and pressed the “open” button. The small door soon opened.
Inside, the room was so dark that one couldn’t even see one’s own hands when close to the face. Ou Ming pressed another button on the remote control. Flashing blue lights immediately came on, along with the sound of rippling water.
“Come, let’s go in to take a look,” he said.
Ou Ming led the group in. The moment they entered the room, Li Jianyue squealed in delight, “Wow! There’s so much water! There are so many fish! How beautiful!”
