When they got on the road, Tang Moling felt more at ease.
He couldn’t open the window because it was raining, so as ti passed, the window would begin to get foggy. He wanted to get a towel, but Mu Jingzhe consciously wiped it away to prevent the mist from fogging up his vision.
When so leaves fell on the rearview mirror, without needing him to say anything, she opened the car window and removed them.
When he felt thirsty and wanted to retrieve the teacup to drink so water, Mu Jingzhe saw that.
“I’ll do it. I’ll help you. Just focus on driving.”
Mu Jingzhe removed the lid from the teacup and handed it to him. After he finished drinking, she covered it and placed it back.
Anyway… he didn’t have to worry about anything.
As Mu Jingzhe moved, Tang Moling could detect a faint fragrance at the tip of his nose. It slled like soap, but it also didn’t feel like it. It was a little arousing.
The children relaxed halfway through the journey and asked many questions about cars. Mu Jingzhe, who knew a lot, answered simply. If she occasionally encountered strange and unconstrained questions that she couldn’t answer, she would honestly say that she didn’t know either.
Their way of interacting and their conversation surprised Tang Moling.
Didn’t adults have to pretend to understand everything in front of children even if they didn’t know anything? Or shouldn’t the adults find so excuse and scold the children for asking the questions they didn’t have an answer for?
Why was Mu Jingzhe so calm?
Besides, the content of their conversation had exceeded Tang Moling’s expectations. Why was it that as they talked, the range of the topics beca wider and wider? Later on, they even started talking about dinsions and natural phenona. There were all sorts of subjects, so of which even he didn’t know about.
He actually didn’t know these things?
Was this possible?
Who was he? Who were these bumpkins? They were only a few years old!
Tang Moling was surprised.
Then, they continued to astonish him.
When they were close to the county city, they started morizing poems and textbooks. Later on, they even played an idiom ga.
Shao Xi answered the most questions and was the fastest. Even when Little Bei dug out the dictionary from her bag, she couldn’t beat him.
The dictionary was the reward Shao Xi had wanted after he’d received the first royalties.
The five siblings finally had their own dictionary. When they had nothing to do, they would read the dictionary and learn idioms.
Later on, by the ti they started revising the foreign language they had learned and began singing alphabet songs, he already felt numb.
“Didn’t they just start learning?” the numb Tang Moling asked Mu Jingzhe. “Is it that easy to learn foreign languages?”
It was a little different from what he thought.
“It’s hard for ordinary people, but not for them.” Mu Jingzhe shrugged. “They’re smart.”
She knew that they had learned the alphabet, so she had taught them to sing the alphabet song. They had imdiately mastered it.
Tang Moling took them to the county city.
Although it was raining, the art school was still lively. It was even livelier than before. There was also a group of observers there.
Mu Jingzhe and the children arrived late and were busy getting to class, so they didn’t notice them. They only thought that they were parents who were there to visit.
After Mu Jingzhe took them to class, she turned around and saw Ji Buwang.
When Ji Buwang saw her, his eyes lit up like light bulbs that had suddenly been turned on.
Mu Jingzhe’s scalp instantly turned numb.
Because Ji Buwang could only see her face, he was very happy every ti he saw her. She could understand that.
However, every ti she ca, he would look for her and keep staring at her. She couldn’t quite take it.
She had thought that she would be able to avoid it today.
Alas, that was not the case.
“Jingzhe, you’re here. I was wondering if you wouldn’t co because of the rain today.”
“Of course we ca. We can’t hold up the children’s lessons because of the rain.” Mu Jingzhe nodded with an awkward smile.
Ji Buwang looked at her expression. “Jingzhe, this expression… Did you not want to see ?”
Mu Jingzhe: “…”
There it was again.
He studied her expression once more.
The thing was, he was always spot-on.
While facing Ji Buwang, Mu Jingzhe felt like she was facing a facial micro-expression expert.
She took a deep breath and looked at Ji Buwang expressionlessly and coldly. “Take a guess?”
That’s right, she didn’t really want to see him.
She didn’t hate Ji Buwang, but it was stressful to be scrutinized like this.
Ji Buwang laughed and then quickly apologized. “No, I wasn’t making fun of you, Jingzhe. I didn’t do it on purpose. I was just really happy.”
He couldn’t see other people’s faces, not even his own, so he couldn’t distinguish between beauty and ugliness. In any case, in his opinion, Mu Jingzhe was the most beautiful person.
She was as pretty as his mother.
On Mu Jingzhe’s face, he could also see all sorts of expressions.
He didn’t know if others were like Mu Jingzhe, always wearing all sorts of expressions and smiles, but in any case, Mu Jingzhe was the cutest.
Her emotional reactions, smiles, and various expressions were all so fascinating.
Every ti he saw Mu Jingzhe, he would unlock new expressions. It was extrely interesting.
However, he had never seen what crying looked like.
“Jingzhe, when are you going to cry? Can you cry?”
Mu Jingzhe: “…”
Listen to him. How demanding was this? Not only did he want to study her, but now he wanted her to cry?
Mu Jingzhe refused heartlessly. “No.”
Ji Buwang said regretfully, “Alright, rember to call when you want to cry in the future.”
Mu Jingzhe couldn’t help but say, “Get lost.”
“Don’t be angry, Jingzhe, don’t be angry,” Ji Buwang hurriedly said.
Mu Jingzhe sighed. “I’m leaving.”
“Wait, don’t leave yet. I have sothing to tell you today.”
Ji Buwang started talking about serious business with Mu Jingzhe. “Shao Zhong is really talented in music. He has an absolute sense of music, and his future is limitless.”
Ji Buwang hadn’t expected to chance upon such a good seedling.
There were very few musical instrunts in this school. With his ability, he could totally learn more musical instrunts.
Mu Jingzhe naturally knew how aweso Shao Zhong was, but…
“I’ll work hard to allow him to study later.”
She would earn more money!
A trace of doubt flashed past Ji Buwang’s face. “No, I’m telling you this because I have sothing to discuss with you. We can let him learn more musical instrunts, and I can help to provide them. I have quite a few at ho.”
“At your ho?”
“Right, they’re just piling dust at ho anyway. We might as well let them be of use.”
Ji Buwang nodded and took out a piece of paper. “I’ve counted what we have at ho. If you agree, I’ll bring them all for Shao Zhong to learn them. The other students can use them too.”
Therefore, after the piano, Ji Buwang was going to bring yet more musical instrunts to school.
Mu Jingzhe numbly took a look at the list.
It was really quite a complete set. There were Western instrunts, like violin, cello, guitars, harps, and even drums, as well as traditional Chinese musical instrunts, like yangqin, guzheng, and pipa.
“Do you have all these at ho?”
Mu Jingzhe was astonished.
“Yes, if you agree, I’ll get soone to bring them over.” Ji Buwang naturally wanted Mu Jingzhe to bring the children to his house to learn, but he didn’t dare push his luck.
“Is it convenient?”
“Of course.” Ji Buwang said that there was nothing inconvenient about it. “There are also enough music classrooms. If you agree, I’ll call ho and have them brought over.”
Ji Buwang even had a phone installed at ho.
“What a rich family.” Mu Jingzhe raised her thumb and made a joke before thanking him seriously.
“Thank you, Ji Buwang. Xiao Wu was fortunate to et you.”
Ji Buwang smiled. “I’m lucky I t you.”
Mu Jingzhe: “…”
So… mushy.
