Chapter 99
Time flew by day after day, and Ji Ruochu also went from being a sweet little girl who competed to be number one, to becoming the undisputed class monitor of Class 1 who had become the teacher's right-hand man. Don't get suspicious. This position wasn't obtained relying on Ji's family background, but was achieved through the hard work of all the subject teachers and classmates of Class 1.
Think about it. Among a group of little emperors who would throw a tantrum over the slightest grievance, there was a girl who wouldn't cry or make a fuss. With just a glance from her -
she could silence even the noisiest little emperor, and thus quickly bring the rest of the children into a "well-behaved" state.
For all the teachers of Class 1, this was like a pie falling from the sky!
She was simply the best candidate for class monitor!
At first, Ji Ruochu refused this troublesome position. Who would willingly become a nanny for the kids?
She was still just a child herself, there was no need to-
The next second, the faces of her underachieving parents flashed through her mind.
Ji Ruochu: ...Forget it, I'll just do it.
It's just looking after kids, can't I manage and scare them at the same time?
As the saying goes, to catch the thieves, first catch the king. To enforce discipline, just deal with the most unruly one, and the rest of the children will naturally become obedient.
From then on, the chubby Qi Yibin's kindergarten life went straight into hell mode.
Every day after school he would run home the fastest. This made Qi's parents suspect that their son was being bullied at school.
Thinking of their son's dispirited state recently, the couple felt sorry for their child. Under the dual pressure of their son's and grandparents' suffering, they had already considered transferring their son to another class.
But it was just a consideration, one that didn't even last half a day, because- "Is this really my son?"
Watching her chubby son heartily eating his meal in the school cafeteria, Tong Yuqing couldn't believe her eyes as she wiped them.
Goodness, this naughty child behaved well in school but acted up as soon as he got home.
"Yibin... trusts Ruochu a lot." Teacher Lin smiled awkwardly as he played the first few monitoring clips again.
In the video, the little boy carefully ate the last spoonful from his small bowl.
When the teacher came to collect the bowls and chopsticks, the little guy promptly grabbed some napkins from the center of the long table to wipe his mouth.
Along the way, he passed by a certain chubby boy who was fully concentrated on slowly picking out the food he didn't like from his bowl.
Ji Ruochu silently stood in front of him, not saying a word, just looking at the food picked out on the table, and then at the now ramrod-straight sitting Qi Yibin.
Don't like green onions? 【Ji-style raised eyebrow + waving arms】
Eat eat eat!!【Qi-style shocked + madly shoving green onions in mouth】
Half an hour later.
You're not napping? 【Expressionless Ruochu holding pillow passing by】
Napping napping!!【Yibin dives into bed, suddenly overcome by drowsiness】
In short, during this time at school, not only did her son break his picky eating habit, even his nap-resistant condition quickly cured itself.
Not only that, afraid that the couple still wasn't reassured, the Class 1 teachers specially took out the children's latest physical exam results.
According to the data, Qi Yibin's slightly above average obesity index, due to his long-term picky eating and lack of exercise, had decreased somewhat in the past half month.
In other words, if he could keep this up, it would definitely be a good thing for the child.
As for his mood...
Looking at the monitor showing their son obediently lining up to play, and the bright smile on his face as he slid down the slide, the couple's hearts settled. Well, he seemed much more carefree.
The only unhappy thing was that previously he could cut in line relying on his bulk, but now-
he was silently deterred by a certain little girl holding a water jug sitting not far away.
In no time at all, the couple made up their minds - as long as they didn't go bankrupt, wherever Ji's little princess went to school in the future, their son would go too.
They would sell pots and pans if they had to, just to pay his tuition!
"Teacher Lin, when will Capital Kindergarten start boarding, has a date been set yet?" The couple looked eager.
Yes, Capital Kindergarten was a boarding school. Boarding usually started a month after school began, depending on the circumstances of the class.
The children would stay at school from Monday to Friday, only going home on weekends.
The day the children started collective dormitory life would also mark the beginning of Capital Kindergarten's comprehensive education.
"In another two weeks." Teacher Lin smiled.
"That long?" was the couple's first reaction.
"Can it be earlier?" was the second reaction.
"Sorry..."
"Oh well..."
In the end, the Qi couple could only dejectedly leave the school.
"Just endure it, only two weeks. Blink and it'll be over..." Qi Xinhai patted his wife's hand.
【Small scene】
Completely numb Ji Ruochu having eaten all the disliked food: I endured without picking out anything, yet you dare pick food?
The mentally oppressed little Qi Yibin: ...
Trembling as he used his own small spoon to scoop up a spoonful of soup with green onions, his inner little person shed two streams of wide tears.
