Chapter 63: Chapter 63: Being a stepmother can actually be quite nice

Yang Hao felt that the story of Zhu Bajie and Chang’e was not suitable for him and Li Manni.

So, he took off the mask and put it on Xixi’s head, “Hmm, now Xixi is Zhu Bajie.”

Xixi, on the contrary, didn’t have so many thoughts, and happily ran over to Li Manni, “Auntie, auntie, you are Chang’e, and I am Zhu Bajie!”

At first, Li Manni didn’t react to why she was Chang’e, not until she remembered the rabbit doll she was holding in her arms.

“Xixi’s dad, let’s take a photo together with the team that won the championship.”

Jiang Yuqi came over to call Yang Hao for a photo. Her smile was still slightly lifted at the corners of her mouth, because Liang XiaoLu, the class teacher of the second-grade class two, had just complained to her, saying that their second-grade class one was too cunning, coming up with such a trick.

Liang XiaoLu was Jiang Yuqi’s college classmate, they were very close friends and were currently renting an apartment together. In fact, she was working at this kindergarten because her good friend Liang XiaoLu was here, and they could keep each other company.

So, Jiang Yuqi was very happy to beat her good friend’s class. When Liang XiaoLu was complaining earlier, she even smugly said, “All’s fair in war.”

“Alright.”

Yang Hao agreed and went over to take a photo with everyone.

At this moment, the other nine people had already taken their places, with the female parents standing on the flat ground in front and the male parents on the steps behind, ensuring everyone’s face could be seen.

“Mrs. Jiang, come take the photo with us.”

After Yang Hao found his spot, he waved at Jiang Yuqi, who was ready to take their picture.

“Yes, yes, yes, come join us!”

“Yeah, Mrs. Jiang, come join us!”

With Yang Hao taking the lead, everyone immediately chimed in one after another. The tug-of-war championship was considered the most prestigious victory of this parent-child sports day because it was the only team event.

Seeing the parents’ enthusiasm, Jiang Yuqi couldn’t really refuse. She immediately called over her best friend, Liang XiaoLu, “Lu, help us take a group photo.”

“Jiang Yuqi, don’t be too much!”

“It’s our class that you’ve beaten, okay…”

Liang XiaoLu griped even as she took the phone.

“Behave!”

Jiang Yuqi winked at her bestie and then joined the line of female parents.

Since she and Yang Hao were the last to join the group, she ended up standing right behind Yang Hao.

“3, 2, 1…”

Click!

Click!!

Liang XiaoLu pressed the shutter several times in quick succession, helping them capture the moment.

“Qiqi, who came up with that sneaky idea of wearing masks?”

As she handed the phone back, Liang XiaoLu glanced at the parents’ group and asked.

“Xixi’s dad, the tallest one over there.”

Jiang Yuqi replied cheerfully while looking at the phone screen, flipping through the photos they had just taken.

“So, it was him!”

“He does look kind of sneaky!”

“Oh, that’s the guy whose wife died and he found a stepmom for his child so soon, right?”

Liang XiaoLu recalled the gossip her best friend had mentioned to her before.

“Uh, wait a second, there’s been a misunderstanding…”

Hearing her bestie bring up the topic, Jiang Yuqi quickly began to explain.

“By the way, Lu, you haven’t told anyone else, have you?” After explaining, Jiang Yuqi casually asked another question.

“Ah, this…”

“No!!”

Liang XiaoLu was momentarily taken aback, then decisively shook her head, while thinking to herself that although she hadn’t said it in person, she wondered whether posting it on Kuaiyin counted.

The scene was quite noisy, and Jiang Yuqi didn’t pay too much attention to her best friend’s change in expression. Most of her attention was on the photos they had just taken. Yang Hao, who was standing behind her, had even made rabbit ears over her head.

Such an old man, yet so childish!

Jiang Yuqi mentally complained and then selected two photos where everyone’s expressions looked quite good and sent them to the parents’ chat group for the second-grade class one.

By noon, the parent-child sports day came to a successful conclusion.

The parents took their children and dispersed.

On the way to the parking lot, Yang Hao caught up with Fat Peng and his family, who were walking ahead. He briskly walked up to them, patting Fat Peng’s shoulder, “Fat Peng, don’t forget the surprise tonight!”

“Uh, okay!”

Fat Peng turned his head to glance at Yang Hao’s hand resting on his shoulder and felt a chill run through him.

He had heard that his slightly plump figure was quite popular in the gay community, but he didn’t expect it to be true!

He, who usually fantasized about various beauties in books, never dreamed that one day he would become the object of someone else’s fantasies!

Unfortunately, it was a burly man with a hulking figure!

Fat Peng drove a Highlander, which was spacious and well-suited for his family’s size.

The downside is…

Forget it, there’s no downside, to avoid getting sprayed!

Reaching the car, Fat Peng quickly dove inside, as if escaping a thief.

“Old Peng, what’s the matter with you?”

Fat Peng’s wife, Ma HuiJuan, noticed her husband’s abnormal behavior and asked after getting into the passenger seat.

“It’s nothing, I’ll tell you when we get home!”

With his son still sitting in the backseat, some things couldn’t be said out loud. He started the car and quickly left the scene.

Meanwhile.

Yang Hao walked toward his Overawe U8, about to get in, when Zhao Yingying hurried over, “Yang, this toy is from the nursery school. Give it to Xixi to play with!”

She handed him a little duck toy, clearly to ingratiate herself with Xixi.

“Thanks.”

Yang Hao took the toy and nodded slightly.

“Yang, you haven’t been to the gym today, have you? Will you go later?” Zhao Yingying asked again. She had finally taken a day off, hoping to spark some romance at the parent-child sports event, but Li Manni’s appearance thwarted her careful plans.

However, this third-degree weakling in the Power of Tea didn’t give up; knowing that Yang Hao went to the gym every day, she planned to stake out the fitness center.

“I’ll go, but can’t say when.”

The fitness center had daily check-in tasks, and he naturally had to go, after all, it was an industry worth millions, and he wouldn’t pass up anything for free.

“Okay, I’ll be going to the gym this afternoon as well. See you at the fitness center then~!”

Zhao Yingying planned to lie in wait for Yang Hao at the fitness center, but before that she intended to seek counsel from her strategist, to see how she could conquer this single, divorced old man with a child!

As Yang Hao drove away, Zhao Yingying watched the Overawe U8 leave the parking lot before heading to her sister-in-law’s Sunny.

“Yingying, do you really like that man?”

Wang Jia waited intentionally outside the car, wanting to talk to her young sister-in-law about Yang Hao.

“Yeah.”

Zhao Yingying nodded, not denying it.

“He’s divorced, you know, and he even has such a big daughter. Can you accept that?” Wang Jia was quite surprised; she always thought of her sister-in-law as proud and aloof.

She had always wanted to find someone with high status, so why the sudden bow to reality?

But to her, it was bowing too low. In her opinion, given Zhao Yingying’s conditions, even if she lowered her standards, she shouldn’t be choosing an older divorced man with a child.

“With the divorce rate so high these days, there’s nothing wrong with being divorced,”

“As for having a daughter, that’s nice too. I think Xixi is cute!” Zhao Yingying said with a smile.

“Uh…”

Wang Jia was baffled, “Yingying, are you really ready to be a stepmother?”

“I’d love to be Xixi’s stepmother, but Yang doesn’t want to!” Zhao Yingying said, quite frustrated as she shook her head.

“He doesn’t want to?”

“He actually doesn’t want to??”

Wang Jia asked in confusion, “That’s not right. Didn’t he buy you a bracelet worth over fifty thousand? He should like you!”

Zhao Yingying shook her head, “Sister-in-law, you don’t understand. Fifty thousand is a lot for us, but for rich people, it’s like spending fifty cents.”

At this moment, Zhao Yingying no longer felt like boasting, but instead thought her experienced sister-in-law might have some advice for her.

“Rich?”

“How rich is he?”

Wang Jia didn’t think Yang Hao looked particularly wealthy. Besides, his daughter and her own child were in the same nursery. If he were really a tycoon, why would his child attend such an ordinary nursery?

“Sister-in-law, you know about Star Cloud Bay, right?”

“Of course!”@@novelbin@@

Wang Jia nodded, “It’s the top luxury housing in Jiangcheng. I heard that even the cheapest house costs around twenty million!”

“Yang has a 688 square meter house in Star Cloud Bay.”

“So, does that make him a rich man??” Zhao Yingying retorted.

“Ah???”

“Star Cloud Bay, 688 square meters!!”

Wang Jia was shocked, and it took her a while to regain her composure before saying seriously, “Yingying, being a stepmother is not bad at all!”
