Chapter 1013: Children’s Day
Soon, it was the 1st of June.
He Xiyan’s wound had almost healed and she had already taken off her bandages. However, there was a scar where her wound had been and she didn’t know when the scar would fade.
He Xiyan rose very early that day and she was already up by 6 AM to make preparations to send Xi Xi and Yuan Yuan to school, especially since Xi Xi had to change into her performance outfit and get her make-up done.
Xi Xi was extremely excited and she was up even earlier than her mother today which was rare since she usually refused to crawl out of bed. She immediately went to wash up after she got out of bed before she changed into the dress that her mother had just bought for her. The dress was very beautiful and it was modeled after the blue dress that Princess Elsa had worn in the movie “Frozen”. The dress was very princess-like and she looked like a fairy in the dress. Xi Xi even asked her mother to help her put a tiara on her head.
She couldn’t stop posing in front of the mirror after she had gotten ready and even asked Yuan Yuan to help her take photographs.
“Yuan Yuan, aren’t I beautiful?” Xi Xi asked as she placed two fingers in front of her mouth and posed cutely. Her smile was very bright as she looked at Yuan Yuan.
Yuan Yuan used his mobile phone to take several photographs.
He really wished that he could tell his sister that she didn’t look good because his sister was constantly asking him whether she was pretty.
She looked the same no matter what she wore anywhere.
Yuan Yuan nodded and didn’t even want to say that she was beautiful.
He Xiyan was already used to her daughter’s narcissistic behavior. Women tend to pay more attention to their looks as they grew older but her daughter seemed to pay excessive attention to her looks.
Yuan Yuan was completely different. He didn’t care what he wore as long as he looked clean and tidy. Yuan Yuan was someone who needed to change his clothes every day whether it was summer or winter, just like his father Mo Yixuan.
Yuan Yuan dug out a blue t-shirt from his closet and a pair of jeans. He was very handsome so he looked good no matter what he wore.
“Xi Xi, Yuan Yuan, time to eat breakfast,” He Xiyan said. She looked at the European-style clock on the wall and noticed that it was already 6:30 AM. The school had notified her to send the children to school before 7:40 AM, so she had to get changed and put on her make-up.
Yuan Yuan and Xi Xi went downstairs with their mother and entered the dining hall where Chef Chen had already prepared their breakfast that consisted of milk and eggs.
Xi Xi was so anxious to get to school that she quickly scarfed down her breakfast while Yuan Yuan leisurely ate his breakfast.
“Yuan Yuan…” Xi Xi said as she patted her brother’s hand. “Quick, finish your food. I’ll still need to get my make-up done at school,” she said sulkily.
She felt that her brother was eating so slowly on purpose. He was eating so slowly that he hadn’t even finished half his meal.
She had to get to school early so that she’d be the first person to get her make-up done by the make-up artist.
Yuan Yuan said, “My dad told me that I can’t eat too quickly and that I have to chew my food at least ten times before swallowing because this will aid digestion. This will prevent me from getting gastric or stomach problems later. Whenever you complain of a stomach ache, it is because you’ve eaten too quickly!”
He Xiyan and Xi Xi were speechless.
Xi Xi pouted and looked as though she was about to cry. She was so annoyed that she took her brother’s bowl away.
“No way. I’m going to be late so you’ll have to stop eating,” she said as she scoffed coldly. She refused to let her brother finish his breakfast.
He Xiyan quickly took the bowl from Xi Xi and placed it in front of Yuan Yuan.
“Yuan Yuan, you should try to eat a little faster,” she said as she patted his shoulder.
