Chapter 1537: Officially Starting the Job 1
Ye Xiangqian was very surprised. He knew his son well. Although Ye Yan often ate at the neighbors’ homes, he wasn’t particularly close to them. He always insisted on coming back to sleep at his own home whenever Ye Xiangqian wasn’t around. But now, in just half a day, he wanted to stay at the Lu Family’s house.
Lu Jiang and his wife were upright and kind people—something he had always known. But for them to earn his son’s trust so quickly, they must be even better than he had imagined.
"Ye Yan, you don’t want to come home with me? I’ll stay home with you tonight," Ye Xiangqian said. He was usually very busy and often rested at the dormitories on the military base. Every time he came home, it always made his son happy.
At the moment, Ye Yan was completely engrossed in watching Fubao draw. Not even turning his head, he waved a hand absently behind him at Ye Xiangqian. "Dad, just go home by yourself. I already ate dinner at Auntie Lu’s house. Auntie even taught me how to do my homework. Tomorrow, I’ll be going to school with Fubao. I can’t let Fubao hang around with that bad Shen Feng—he once pulled down Gu Xiaolin’s pants! He’s a little thug!"
As soon as Ye Yan said this, Lu Jiang, his wife, and Ye Xiangqian all grew serious at the same time.
Even though kids are young, pulling down a girl’s pants is absolutely inappropriate behavior. Indulgence of such behavior could easily lead to him growing into an actual thug in the future.
Feng Qingxue crouched down in front of Ye Yan and gently asked, "Yanyan, is that why you stopped Shen Feng from getting close to Fubao today?"
When they got home earlier, she had carefully questioned her daughter. According to Fubao, it was Shen Feng who first asked to play with her, but Ye Yan had stopped him. The two boys were like oil and water—unable to see eye to eye. Shen Feng had pushed Ye Yan, and Ye Yan retaliated by hitting him. Two other kids came to help Shen Feng, turning the situation into a brawl. Ye Yan had already recounted these details during the day, yet Fubao repeated the story to her mother just to confirm.
Ye Yan, still engrossed in the drawing Fubao was making, turned part of his attention to Feng Qingxue when he heard her question. He gave a small nod. "Shen Feng is a little thug. We can’t play with him. He also likes to pull on girl classmates’ pigtails."
