Chapter 50: I Made It For the Dog
Li Yanmo, who was currently upstairs, realized that Ning Tiantian hadn’t come running after him. He scowled in displeasure and gripped the mechanical pencil so tightly that it broke.
After a while, he pushed out his chair and went downstairs to check on her.
“Ning Tiantian, who said you could eat the ribs that I prepared?” Li Yanmo stood in front of the dining table, his jaw taut.
Tiantian quickly hugged the bowl to her chest. “You made it for me.”
“I made it for the dog!” Having had his real intentions exposed, Li Yanmo’s face was flushed in anger.
“I asked Er Ha. Er Ha said it wasn’t eating the ribs, so I decided to help out,” Ning Tiantian said earnestly while blinking her eyes.
Li Yanmo was furious.
Enough!
Realizing that his anger wasn’t going away anytime soon, Ning Tiantian stuck out her tongue, then gave him a gummy smile while she held out a bowl. “Inky, you should eat some as well.”
Inky snorted in response but eventually sat down.
“Next time, train Er Ha in the courtyard. Don’t bring it into the house! No one will clean up after you if it makes a mess!” said Li Yanmo, halfway through the meal.
Ning Tiantian mumbled with her mouth full, “I know…”
But Inky did clean up after her today after she made a mess…
On Children’s Day, none of the parents were free, so Li Yanmo had to take leave from school to stand in for them.
He had initially resisted this suggestion, but all his objections were disregarded!
Standing among the parents at the preschool, who were mostly in their twenties and thirties, Li Yanmo stood out for various reasons. Firstly, he was much younger and dressed in his blue and white school uniform, with a red scarf around his neck. Secondly, he was practically an Adonis; the light breeze ruffled his black bangs, which framed his dark brown eyes. And thirdly, the way he carried himself was elegant and mature, making him appear to be wise beyond his years.
“Li Yanmo, why didn’t you ask me along for something as fun as this?” asked Su Yi, as he tried to catch his breath behind Li Yanmo.
“Well, you came along anyway, didn’t you?” Li Yanmo found a vacant seat and sat down.
“You got approval from the teacher, but I had to play truant. There’s no basis for comparison!” Su Yi shrugged.
Li Yanmo didn’t say anything else as he squinted. He was looking out for Ning Tiantian.
“Inky! I’m over here!” Ning Tiantian shouted and waved her arm at him. She came running over with Er Ha.
Ning Tiantian was dressed in a husky onesie. There was a light blush on her face as her large eyes formed crescents. When she moved, her ponytail moved along with her. She was adorable!
He broke into a small smile, without realizing it.
“Inky, our class is last to perform. You’ll have to wait a long time!”
“That’s all right. I’ve taken leave of my classes.” Li Yanmo placed his palm on her forehead, which was beaded with perspiration.
Ning Tiantian looked up and said coyly, “Inky, Tiantian’s feeling really hot. Could you wipe away my sweat, please?”
After coughing lightly, Li Yanmo lifted her bangs and wiped away her perspiration with a piece of tissue, while no one was looking.
“Are you trying to kill a single person like me with your diabetes-inducing sweetness?” Su Yi had his hand over his chest. He then winked at Tiantian, asking, “Where’s your BFF, Little Cookie?
“You’re not to give her a nickname!” Maybe it was because he had once tried to persuade Li Yanmo to get together with another girl, but Ning Tiantian was pissed off at Su Yi. “It’s none of your business where Cookie is. Don’t get any ideas!”
“My darling Tiantian, please accept my sincerest apologies. That was my fault. I swear that I’d never do it again,” Su Yi whispered into Tiantian’s ear, not before throwing a glance in Li Yanmo’s direction.
