Chapter 155 The Crawling Prince
Chapter 155 The Crawling Prince
The next day, perhaps feeling insecure, An'an woke up unusually early. She yawned and stretched her little hands and feet.
She rolled around on the bed once, then dozed off for a while before waking up. She rubbed her eyes, skillfully rolled to the edge of the bed, lay down, and slid off after a couple of kicks with her little feet.
As usual, An'an stepped onto her little stool, bared her tiny teeth, and began brushing them. She then perfunctorily scooped up some water and wiped her face with her little hands.
Looking up, intending to apply some lotion while looking in the mirror, I noticed my wet bangs. Remembering something, I slipped out of the study and found a small pair of craft scissors.
Looking in the mirror, she meticulously trimmed her own hair: "I'm a fantastic hairdresser, cutting and cutting hair~, one after another! One, two, three, four, five, they all look great~"
"La la la~, la li la~, I love haircuts~, haircuts feel so good~"
When Junmin came to wake everyone up, he saw An'an in the bathroom, holding a tuft of hair and cutting it short, piece by piece, with scissors.
Seeing the scissors in her hand, worried that suddenly approaching would frighten her, she slowly made a little noise. Seeing that An'an had noticed her, she went over and took the scissors away: "An'an? Why are you cutting your hair?"
"Because they've become more beautiful! They've become gorgeous!"
After An'an finished speaking happily, she turned her head and saw her ugly self in the mirror. She was stunned and touched the row of stubble standing up on her forehead.
"Waaah~, my head~, Auntie~, please save my hair!"
"Waaaaah~, I don't want to become an ugly monster!"
Hearing the loud crying, the group rushed over and were all astonished to see An'an's bangs, which looked like they'd been chewed by a dog: "!!"
"Sister? Your hair?"
"Waaah~, brother, I've become ugly! What should I do? I don't want to be this ugly~"
Seeing An'an crying with her head buried under the covers, Ms. Song Yuan felt both angry and heartbroken. She called everyone out of the room before she and Jun Min comforted An'an.
"When Song Yuan wanted to wake the child, you stopped him, saying to let the child wake up naturally! Now look what's happened! If it weren't for Jun Min, I'd think you, as the eldest uncle, are unreliable."
“I went upstairs to call the child myself, and they found out early on. If they had been any later, my great-granddaughter would have been bald and could have become a nun!”
"Let's see how you explain this to Junxing then!"
Lu Jing obediently took two swipes from the old man's cane, thinking that the child was still young and it was normal for him to be ignorant. He also blamed himself for not watching the child properly, and now the child's hair was ruined and he didn't know if it could ever be fixed.
"I'll ask An'an for leave in a bit. We won't be going on the spring outing today. I'll take An'an to get her hair cut!"
"You think we can just cancel the trip like that? How long has the child been looking forward to this day? She's been pestering Aunt Liu to prepare food and drinks for her spring outing for days now. How can she be happy if you don't let her go?"
When Ms. Song came out, she saw the father and son still arguing. Fearing that the old man would upset himself, she quickly said, "Junmin found a hairpiece for An'an. Luckily, she's small and her hands are short, so they managed to cut just a small tuft of hair at the roots."
"Let's use a hairpiece to cover it up, and then wear a hat. For now, we'll just cover it up simply. Once our hair grows longer, the stylist can fix it!"
An An stood in front of the dressing mirror for a long time, looking at her fake French bangs on her forehead. She nodded with satisfaction, then put on her baseball cap before heading out.
Seeing the child come downstairs, the old man, afraid of hurting her feelings, didn't dare say anything more about her hair. He simply helped her put the things he had prepared into the car.
Seeing that there was no time for breakfast, I could only prepare something for her to eat on the road. The old man had just put the things down and checked them over.
Thinking back to when Lu Junxing was little, Lu Jing hadn't taken care of him at all, and now he felt even more that Lu Jing was unreliable. He wasn't too comfortable entrusting the child to Lu Jing, so he got into the car as well.
"Where's my brother? Hasn't he come out yet?"
An'an walked to the front of the car and, noticing that Qin Yanzhou wasn't there, asked curiously, "I wanted to ride in the same car with my brother to school!"
"Your brother has to go to school, he left a long time ago. Uncle Liu and your grandma took Yanzhou to school, now it's just you left. Hurry up and get on the bus, or you'll be late!"
"Luckily, we live in the suburbs, so there's no traffic jam near Pingshan Park! It'll be perfect to get there now!"
Lu Jing realized that time was indeed running short. Considering it was his first day taking his child out, he didn't want to be late, otherwise the teacher would have a bad impression of him as a grandfather, and it would also delay the other children's spring outing.
He then lifted An'an into the car, fastened her seatbelt, glanced at the old man sitting in the back seat, and said helplessly, "Dad! Don't worry, I will definitely deliver the child to the teacher safely and on time!"
"Just go back! Take a nap in a bit, then it'll be time for the doctor to check you up. Don't bother yourself!"
The old man hesitated for a moment, but ultimately considered his own health and worried that going with them would cause trouble for the children. So he gave a few more instructions and went back.
"An'an? Can't parents sign up to go on your kindergarten's spring outing?"
"Teacher Yu didn't say that~"
While waiting at the traffic light, Lu Jing helped An An insert the milk straw: "Drink up, you won't need to drink anymore once I start driving, okay? It might poke your throat if you brake!"
"I seem to remember that parents used to accompany their children on spring outings. How can a bunch of kids possibly understand what's going on?"
"I understand? I understand perfectly! The teacher said we can eat delicious food together with our friends on the grass, and we can also learn about many trees and insects..."
When the grandmother and grandson arrived, a group of children dressed in their kindergarten tracksuits were already chatting away in the park.
Goodbye, Grandpa! Thank you for seeing me off, mua~
An'an watched as Lu Jing unbuckled her seatbelt and excitedly tried to get out of the car. She even gave Lu Jing a half-hearted kiss and waved dismissively, saying, "Grandpa~, take good care of yourself when you get back~"
Hearing these heartwarming words, Lu Jing, who already didn't want to leave, now wanted to leave even less, watching An An run towards a familiar chubby little boy.
He hurriedly grabbed the pink lunchbox he had prepared in the back seat and chased after them, just in time to see Qi Rongyu holding and comforting Dunzi, who had been given to their family last time. An'an and Duoduo were also gathered around, playing with Dunzi.
"Dunzi? You're going to cry your eyes out! Don't you dare cry anymore, okay? If you cry yourself to death, no one will have a little brother to play with!"
"Yes, okay? How about I give you some candy? How about I be your prince in our next playhouse? But you have to be able to walk first, because there aren't any crawling princes yet!"
"That little stump can become a crawling prince! That way, the stump can be a prince!"
"An'an~, you are so smart!"
Zhuangzhuang, on the other hand, was squatting to the side, dejectedly clutching the strap of his bulging schoolbag.
After stuffing the lunchbox into An'an's panda backpack, Lu Jing asked, "Isn't this Zhuangzhuang's son, Dunzi? How come he's so young and he's on a school trip?"
