After Huang Jun finished paying the tuition, Yang Yuxi had already brought over the quilts and other items.
Seeing this.
Huang Jun hurriedly stepped forward to help: "Miss Yang, I really appreciate your help."
"You're welcome, it's what I should do."
Yang Yuxi gave him a gentle smile, not forgetting to add: "Remember to wash and dry the quilts and mats after you go back, and bring them back on the first day of school so the kids can use them during nap time."
Standing nearby, Liang Yinqiu also advised: "Mr. Huang, it's best if you find some time to go to the hospital in the next few days to get your health certificate, and while you're at it, you can also have a school entry physical for Qingqing and Weiwei!"
Upon hearing this, Huang Jun nodded in thanks: "Thank you, Director Liang, thank you, Miss Yang. Sorry for troubling you both today."
With a faint smile on her face, Yang Yuxi waved her hand to indicate "No trouble."
"You're welcome."
Liang Yinqiu suddenly remembered something and added: "Oh, right, after you get your health certificate, if it's convenient, you can report to the kindergarten first. Since school hasn't officially started yet, you can get accustomed to the kitchen work to avoid being overwhelmed when school begins."
"Also, let's add each other on WeChat, so you can contact me if there's anything you need."
"Sure!"
Huang Jun then felt that Director Liang was quite nice.
He took out his phone, scanned her WeChat QR code, and added her on WeChat.
Yang Yuxi also joined as a colleague, got Huang Jun's WeChat, and added him to the Dorami Kindergarten staff group.
This action naturally caught the attention of some kindergarten teachers, who curiously glanced at Huang Jun's WeChat avatar and nickname, thinking perhaps Miss Yang mistakenly added a parent to the group!
After learning that Huang Jun was the new chef, they politely gave a fancy welcome, then continued focusing on their tasks without much interruption.
Huang Jun also sent a "Newcomer reporting in, please take care of me" message, then quietly put away his phone and bid farewell to Liang Yinqiu and the others: "Director Liang, Miss Yang, we'll be leaving now."
He initially intended to signal his two lovely daughters to say "goodbye," but before he could speak, Weiwei waved her little hand at Liang Yinqiu and Yang Yuxi, sweetly saying: "Director, Miss Yang, my daddy and I are leaving now, we'll come see you another day, make sure to take care at the kindergarten~"
"Bye-bye~"
Qingqing just gave a small wave to say goodbye.
Liang Yinqiu had already felt these two children were particularly well-behaved and sensible. During the taste test earlier, even though they really wanted to be close to their dad, they still waited obediently outside so as not to disturb him.
Moreover, when she was talking to their dad, they sat quietly without making a fuss, very sensible.
Upon hearing their tender goodbyes now, especially Weiwei's mature tone, she couldn't help but smile and wave, saying: "Alright, bye-bye, we'll all be just fine."
"Bye-bye Qingqing, bye-bye Weiwei!"
Yang Yuxi also waved in response, and after the father and daughters disappeared at the door, she turned her head to look at the opposite side to Liang Yinqiu.
Smiling brightly.
As brilliant as can be.
Almost blindingly bright to Liang Yinqiu: (￣ー￣)
Great!
There must be something to ask!
Having a good understanding of Yang Yuxi, Liang Yinqiu calmly said: "Go on, what do you need from me."
Yang Yuxi smiled even more brightly: "Only Director Liang truly understands me!"
"Alright, cut the nonsense, get to the point!" Liang Yinqiu feigned a "I'm busy, no time to listen to your rambling" look.
"Director Liang, Qingqing and Weiwei haven't been assigned to a class yet."
Knowing it was intentional, Yang Yuxi still cheerfully expressed her thoughts: "I want them to join my class. Is that okay with you?"
This request surprised Liang Yinqiu, revealing a hint of amazement on her face.
Wow, that's the request?!
But...
That doesn't sound like something you would usually do, Miss Yang...
No wonder Liang Yinqiu had such a reaction.
The main reason is that Yang Yuxi's behavior this time was too out of character.
Previously, if an extra spot was allocated to her class, she would be opposed to it.
But now, she's actively asking for spots, and not just one.
This made Liang Yinqiu momentarily wonder if the sun had risen from the west today, and she instinctively glanced out the window...
What are you looking at?
Yang Yuxi was confused by her actions.
But she didn't think much of it and continued to press: "Director Liang, do you think that's okay?"
Liang Yinqiu came back to her senses, not giving a direct answer, but instead asked: "Miss Yang, why do you suddenly want Qingqing and Weiwei to join your class?"
She looked at Yang Yuxi, with a hint of confusion and curiosity on her face.
"Director Liang, just to clarify, it's not sudden—I've had this idea since the moment they came to the school."
Yang Yuxi responded playfully, "The reason I proactively wanted the sisters to join my class is because they are just too adorable. More importantly, they're well-behaved and sensible. What teacher wouldn't like kids like this?"
Of course.
There's another important reason—I'm greedy for Huang Jun's cooking skills.
But she couldn't say this out loud.
Or Liang Yinqiu might laugh at her.
Liang Yinqiu didn't suspect anything.
After all, Yang Yuxi was stating the facts.
Qingqing and Weiwei are indeed very likable.
Even though she hasn't spent much time with the kids, they left a strong impression on her, filling her with joy.
Seeing Liang Yinqiu hesitating, Yang Yuxi had no choice but to use her "secret weapon"—acting cute.
She lightly shook Liang Yinqiu's arm, speaking gently, "Aunt Liang, can we? Just give me a straightforward answer… Aunt Liang~"
Finally, she deliberately elongated the ending sound.
Huh…
The long-lost act of cuteness sent a shiver through Liang Yinqiu, as if goosebumps fell all over the ground.
She really didn't expect Yang Yuxi to act cute just for the sake of these two children, which was enough to show Yang Yuxi's genuine affection for them, as well as her determination.
Alright, alright.
Since Yang Yuxi took the initiative to ask, she had no reason to refuse, might as well grant the favor and agree.
It would also prevent other teachers from blaming her for assigning students at the last minute.
After thinking it through, she finally compromised, "Alright, alright, stop shaking me, I agree to let the two of them directly enter your class."
"Thank you, Aunt Liang."
Upon hearing this, Yang Yuxi's face lit up with joy.
"Call me Director Liang in the kindergarten!"
"Okay, I understand, won't happen again."
…
Huang Jun led Qingqing and Weiwei towards the school gate. Watching the two little ones hopping along hand-in-hand, he couldn't help but ask, "Qingqing, Weiwei, soon you'll be starting kindergarten. Are you excited?"
"Yes, excited!"
Weiwei tilted her little face upwards, her expression radiant with joy.
"And you, Qingqing?"
"I'm excited too!"
Qingqing looked up at him, noticing both his hands full. She eagerly volunteered, "Daddy, are you tired? How about I help you carry something?"
"Daddy, Weiwei wants to help you carry something too!" Weiwei chimed in quickly.
Huang Jun chuckled, politely declining, "No, no, Daddy's not tired, Daddy can carry everything. You just keep walking properly."
"No, no!"
Weiwei pouted, pleading, "Daddy, let me help you, please, please…"
Qingqing stared at Huang Jun, not saying a word, determined not to give up until her goal was achieved.
Sigh!
You little rascals, I can't resist you...
Huang Jun surrendered, "Alright… how about you carry the backpacks and take them home?"
"Yay, yay~"
The little ones leaped with joy, then turned their backs to him, reaching out to take the backpacks.
After securing the backpacks, they glanced at each other, satisfied with their appearance, and continued walking out of the school gate.
Unable to free either hand to hold theirs, Huang Jun had no choice but to let them walk hand-in-hand ahead of him.
Fortunately, these little ones were very obedient, unlike some kids who, once outside, vanish without a trace no matter how much you call them. Instead, they occasionally turned back to check on him, as if worried he'd get lost.
With affection, Huang Jun watched them, occasionally reminding them to keep their eyes ahead to avoid falling.
The little ones were very obedient, walking along while singing, "Old Daddy, Old Daddy, where are we going, with me here fear neither heaven nor earth."
"Baby, baby, I'm your big tree, here to take you home." Huang Jun smiled slightly, singing along.
"Hahaha… Daddy you sang wrong~"
The delightful laughter of the little ones echoed along the way home, softening the blazing summer heat, meanwhile, drawing the attention of a familiar person.
