Chapter 26 Promise (Part 2)
September 2nd, cloudy.
The temperature reached a maximum of 27 degrees Celsius and the weather was particularly good.
At twelve o'clock at noon, Chen Tao got up.
After briefly washing up, he drove to school to pick up Miss Lin.
"Yingzi has an exam today, why don't you go find her?"
After giving the uncle some eye drops, Miss Lin took a gentle sniff and found that she didn't smell the scent of a strange woman, which made her very satisfied.
Chen Tao opened his mouth and said, "It doesn't matter if you don't see your daughter for a day or two. If I don't see you for a few days, then I won't be able to bear it."
Miss Lin said angrily: "You stinky uncle, I haven't seen you for a few days, why are you so sweet?"
Chen Tao asked strangely: "How do you know that my mouth has become sweeter? You obviously haven't tasted it today, right?"
Upon hearing this, Miss Lin immediately stretched out Sai Xue Qishuang's arms, hugged Chen Tao's neck, gave him a gentle peck, and said coquettishly in his arms:
"I didn't go out with any lipstick today, so that's all I can do. Uncle, just make do with it"
Chen Tao hummed and asked with a smile:
"Where do you want to go? I'll listen to your arrangements today."
Miss Lin thought for a while and said:
"Well, I don't think it's anything fun. Just take me home and I'll teach you how to draw and cook."
Chen Tao thought so too.
However, the development of things is often not as expected.
After having lunch outside and buying some vegetables and going home, Miss Lin wanted to teach the uncle to speak Gusu dialect for a while before her relatives came. However, she was so involved that the two of them lost track of time while teaching the other. . Miss Lin no longer had time to teach him painting, so she could only get up in the evening and teach him how to cook.
Of course, as long as there is progress, it is quite good.
"Uncle, your learning ability is really strong, and it's not much worse than mine."
After eating a piece of fish maw, Miss Lin sincerely praised it.
"Of course. I have no other abilities. I just love learning and want to make progress."
The physical enhancement of the plug-in certainly did not miss Chen Tao's brain. The specific effect is partly reflected in the strong learning ability.
Like painting, Chen Tao also showed talent in cooking, which made it easy for Miss Lin to teach him.
"Giggle...Uncle, you are so interesting I really have a crush on you! Uncle, if I can't find a suitable man in the future, can I marry you?"
Miss Lin tilted her head and asked with a smile.
"Of course I won't refuse, but your parents won't agree, right? If your parents agree, I will definitely marry you home."
Chen Tao, who didn't want to get married, dug a hole for himself.
Miss Lin smiled and confirmed: "Is this true? Are you trying to make me happy?"
Chen Tao did not doubt that he was there and said seriously:
"I'm telling the truth, I will never coax you!"
Miss Lin was very satisfied after hearing this.
Her parents are an old man and a young wife, and they have a certain ability to accept this.
The age gap between her and Chen Tao is indeed larger than that of her parents.
But the uncle doesn't look old, has good physical strength, and has a successful career. When the time comes, all he needs to do is cook the rice before the time comes, and he won't be afraid of disapproval from his parents.
Miss Lin felt that although it was not aboveboard to take advantage of her uncle's trustworthiness, she did so out of love.
I believe uncle will understand!
***
8pm.
A barber shop in the Xincheng community.
Miss Lin will go back to school tomorrow morning and will come to take care of her hair now.
Due to the improvement of his physique, Chen Tao's hairline, which was originally worrying, has regained its lushness, so he trimmed it.
There is no need for any hairstyle, just a good pattern and easy to take care of.
Two minutes later, Qiao Yingzi sent a video call.
After being connected, Qiao Yingzi saw the unfamiliar environment and said curiously:
"Dad, where are you?"
Chen Tao smiled and said: "Your sister Lin has a rest today, and I will accompany her to the barber shop to maintain her hair."
When Qiao Yingzi heard this, she immediately felt bad.
However, when she thought of the agreement yesterday, she was secretly happy. If she can get first place in this class placement test, then she can make her father promise her not to marry Miss Lin in the future.
She didn't know yet that the smart girl Lin had also made a marriage agreement with her father.
The difference is that it is almost impossible for her to get the first place in the exam; but Miss Lin's parents are very likely to agree to their marriage in the future.
"Dad, our class results will be out at noon tomorrow. If I get first place, you must take me out to play!"
Qiao Yingzi clicked to stop.
She believed that her father must still remember that agreement.
"Don't worry, what I promised is absolutely unambiguous. However, if you don't get the first place in the exam, don't be discouraged. Just come back next time!"
In the competition among the top academics, talent has trumped hard work.
As for Qiao Yingzi's lack of talent, it would be impossible for her to beat Lin Lei'er who performed normally.
Chen Tao got vaccinated in advance to avoid feeling uncomfortable when she arrived, which would only add to the pressure.
"I understand Dad, when will you come over to see me? Tomorrow night, my mother should go to Nengcheng Education to take care of students. Do you have time to come over?"
Qiao Yingzi asked.
"Of course I have time tomorrow night!"
Chen Tao smiled and said: "I will definitely go to your place tomorrow night. We don't have to go out to eat, because I learned two dishes from your sister Lin today, and I just cooked them for you."
Qiao Yingzi raised her eyebrows and said happily:
"Okay, it's settled, no regrets."
She began to look forward to tomorrow.
The next day, morning.
Chen Tao asked Miss Lin to take half a day off so that he could review the Gusu dialect he learned last night.
In the afternoon, he sent Miss Lin back to school and then went directly to the company.
Just when he was studying a film investment project, Qiao Yingzi also returned home and had a conflict with Song Qian.
Here's the thing.
In a few days, it will be Qiao Yingzi's birthday.
Therefore, Fang Yifan gave her a gift in advance, which was a Lego toy.
While Qiao Yingzi was happy, she was also worried that her mother would find out.
Fang Yifan came up with a plan and asked her to remove the outer packaging and hide the small bag inside in her schoolbag. This way, her mother would definitely not find it.
However, after arriving home, Song Qian found that the weight of her schoolbag was wrong, so she secretly rummaged through her schoolbag while she was going to the bathroom.
For Song Qian, this is just a routine operation.
After all, she can even install a transparent glass for surveillance in her daughter's room, let alone a cricket's school bag?
When Song Qian understood that this was a toy, her expression immediately dropped and she began to lecture Qiao Yingzi.
Qiao Yingzi retorted in a low voice, saying that she had just finished the exam and could relax for a day and be happy.
But Song Qian kept a straight face and said that she came second in the exam and there was nothing to be happy about, and then took the toy away.
Obviously a few minutes ago, she had warmly encouraged Qiao Yingzi and asked her to come back for the exam next time.
It's obvious that she can say all kinds of nice things, but she can't stop controlling her daughter for a moment.
Even if there is short-term warmth, it is for better control.
