Chapter 374: “Tianbao, would you like me to be your Dad?” (1)
“It said it was mandatory for the parents to attend together. I would… like to ask you to come with and Tianbao had agreed to it as well. Do you have time tomorrow?” Shu Yan asked Feng Zeyu, feeling slightly uncomfortable.
“Yes, yes, yes. Of course I do.” Feng Zeyu was very emotional. It didn’t matter what plans he had tomorrow; they would all be cancelled.
The next morning, Shu Yan put one of her company’s latest outfits and also brought with her a set of exercise outfit, just in case there were physical activities involved. She would not be able to participate in them in her dress. The kids had already changed into their school uniforms and Shu Yan took them downstairs with her. Feng Zeyu was already waiting there. Shu Yan was almost dazzled blind when she saw Feng Zeyu. He was in a full suit. His hair combed back and was shiny from the mousse.
“What is that all about?” He was a cigar short from a boss in a movie from Hong Kong.
“I thought I’d dress up like a successful person. Does this work? Will I embarrass Tianbao?” He dug through his chests and closets last night and found this set laying in the bottom of a chest. He had only worn it once to a banquet and had no idea whether it was already out of fashion. He heard that rich people bought the latest styles every season and was very particular about that. He would buy a few new sets from the mall later.
Shu Yan couldn’t stop laughing. Tianbao ran up and circled Feng Zeyu. “Uncle Fang looks so handsome today.”
Feng Zeyu lifted his brows proudly. “This little man has taste.”
Shu Yan felt that that was very retro. That being said, the way he was dressed had been in style for a while in the 90s, especially among successful people. Nevertheless, Feng Zeyu looked mean and had a scar on his face. Dressing that way was a little bit odd.
“Maybe I should change out of it.” Feng Zeyu, too, felt odd dressing the way that he did.
“It’s fine. It’s nice the way you are. But I’d suggest to bring a set of exercise outfit with you. This was my first time as well and I had no idea what kind of activities we are talking about. Just in case parents need to perform or workout, your outfit would be cumbersome.”
“Perhaps we will have to perform?” He wasn’t worried about physical activities but performing? It wasn’t like he could perform singing the national anthem or military anthem.
“Don’t worry about it. I’m sure things will work itself out. We’ll just see what kind of instructions are provided by the teachers.”
Truth was, Shu Yan, too, was a little worried. She had heard of parents watching their children perform at the kindergarten back at Nanfu Mansion. This was a different kindergarten and Tianbao mentioned that parents would be participating as well. Shu Yan recalled some of the videos that she had seen with parent’s complaints before and that made her worry.
Shu Yan and Feng Zeyu were among the first to arrive. There were a few other parents there and they were chatting among each other. They looked to be familiar with each other. They exchanged looks with each other when they saw Shu Yan and asked around in a low voice. None of them recognize Shu Yan. Regardless, anyone who could afford sending their children to Nanshan Kindergarten would be somebody. As such, the others greeted the two of them courteously.
Tis was the special time period in China. Many large families had disappeared during this time period and all of the news ones were farmers just a few generations back. Nobody was more special than anyone else. As such, nobody gave too much thought when they saw Feng Zeyu. So what if he had a scar on his face? Even a paraplegic rich person would be called charming.
The other parents trickled in and some of them knew each other. Shu Yan and Feng Zeyu sat in the corner and did not join in.
