When Yao Le’er saw that the caller ID was “wife,” she was startled and almost jumped up as if she had been caught stealing.

　　Xu Bin put one arm around her waist, then casually answered the phone: “Wife, what’s wrong?”

　　”Honey, the power’s out tonight. Should we buy some candles when we get home?”

　　Hearing her second sister’s voice, Yao Le’er’s expression changed, and she looked a little frightened, as if she had been caught cheating. Xu Bin liked her emotional fluctuations, and turned around to kiss her small mouth, but there was no passionate French kiss immediately.

　　Because Yao Le’er was so scared that she pursed her lips, and her bright, watery eyes held a pleading look.

　　Xu Bin didn’t go overboard and continued licking her lips, saying softly, “No need, honey. It’s just a power outage for a day and a night. I already said we’d go to the aquarium.”

　　”Oh, you mean it?”

　　Yao Nan sounded a little surprised, thinking it was just an excuse to appease her mother’s close friends.

　　”Of course, you need to relax once in a while!”

　　”Call your mom and tell her I’ll come pick her up when it’s time. You wait for us at the Ocean World.”

　　Xu Bin has always been domineering and chauvinistic in front of his wife, which Yao Nan is used to, and sometimes she even likes it.

　　After hanging up the phone, looking at his shy sister-in-law in his arms, Xu Bin laughed and said, “The power will be cut off starting tonight.”

　　Before Xu Bin could finish speaking, Yao Le’er obediently said, “I know, Mom’s girlfriends are a gathering place for gossips. I actually heard what you were saying.”

　　Xu Bin glanced at the time, chuckled, and patted her bottom, saying, “Honey, it’s almost time to take you to school.”

　　”Brother-in-law… I, I’ll go change my clothes!”

　　Yao Le’er staggered as she stood up, blushing shyly, probably because her underwear was soaked. Xu Bin didn’t tease her further because the system reward hadn’t been claimed yet and the new task hadn’t been generated.

　　They brought their change of clothes and daily necessities to the No. 1 Middle School of the city ahead of everyone else.

　　Just as I arrived at the door, I suddenly saw Ah Jiao standing there with a slightly annoyed expression. Seeing Yao Le’er and Xu Bin together, she seemed unwilling to come over, and her attitude clearly indicated that she was coming for Yao Le’er.

　　Xu Bin frowned, pondering how to deal with this troublemaker, when Yao Le’er ran over and said with a smile, “Ajiao, thank you for your kindness, but no need.”

　　”It’s nothing. Your godfather is poor; he’s not as rich as my brother-in-law.”

　　Yao Le’er took out her iPhone 14 and said softly, “My family isn’t poor, we’re just strict. This is a gift from my brother-in-law for my college entrance exam. It’s more than what your godfather gave me, right?”

　　”you……”

　　Gillian Chung came back defiantly, but she never expected to be attacked so closely.

　　It’s said that the conflicts between little girls are a bit scary; Yao Le’er wasn’t the only one who wanted to go all out.

　　Xiao Miaomiao walked over and hugged Yao Le’er intimately. She looked at Ajiao and said, “Alright, Ajiao, why don’t you use that little bit of money to cheat other girls?”

　　What does “small change” mean?

　　Gillian Chung said something with a hint of resentment.

　　”Several thousand, and she’s still a virgin, isn’t that a small amount of money??”

　　Xiao Miaomiao’s ability to be sarcastic was incredibly strong. She immediately launched into a barrage of sarcastic remarks: “Your so-called godfather only runs a small restaurant. How much money could he possibly have? How can he compare to Le’er’s brother-in-law? Le’er’s brother-in-law has spent over 100,000 yuan just on the Summer Cicada series bracelets in the last two days.”

　　”Do you know what money is? When people buy bracelets, they don’t ask anything else, they just want the heaviest one. But it turns out that it’s too heavy and affects their mahjong game, so they buy a lighter one instead.”

　　”Le’er’s family is strict, not because they are poor. Her second brother-in-law said she was unemployed, but she has long been financially independent and has so much money that she doesn’t need to work at all. She is not in the same class as your so-called godfather.”

　　”Do you know how much Le’er spends on underwear? A pair of panties is never less than two hundred.”

　　”These school supplies alone, not counting the phone, would cost at least 20,000 to 30,000 yuan. You’ve ever used a washbasin that costs 68 yuan???”

　　Xiao Miaomiao became even more arrogant and retorted fiercely: “If you want to find a sugar daddy to take care of you, I’d rather find Brother-in-law Le’er. Are you crazy to go after that greasy middle-aged man like you?”

　　Gillian’s face turned ashen instantly. Yao Le’er tugged at her, and Xu Bin left her standing there without saying a word.

　　According to the phone number registration, Xu Bin was identified as the parent, and everything seemed normal. However, there was a problem with the dormitory allocation process.

　　The No. 1 Middle School of the city is a long-established key school. Previously, it was already considered very good that all the dormitories were eight people a room. But now there are new dormitories in the new area. A lot of money has been invested in the school, which was originally intended to take care of students who received sponsorships and children from wealthy families.

　　The new dormitories have four-person rooms and even two-person rooms available. They are nicely decorated and equipped with amenities such as air conditioning.

　　The sponsorship fee for the No. 1 Middle School in the city is clearly marked. If you are admitted, you will receive a scholarship and a living allowance. It sounds great, but it is not a small matter for wealthy people to send their children there.

　　Yao Le’er got into the university on her own, so the expenses weren’t much. Xiao Miaomiao was two points short, so the sponsorship fee was 20,000 yuan, and there were no other subsidies. It would be a heavy burden for any family.

　　The No. 1 Middle School originally thought that the brand-new luxury dormitory area would be very popular, but unexpectedly, the wealthy families didn’t buy it.

　　They send them here to suffer, and the richer the family, the less interested they are. They just want the kids to live in multi-person rooms so they can at least develop their social skills. The embarrassing thing is that the occupancy rate of the luxurious dormitory building is frighteningly low.

　　Parents dare not interfere with academically successful children, and they don’t know how to manage those with connections either. But the parents’ ideology is there; they just don’t want their children to have too comfortable a life.

　　Xiao Miaomiao lives in a regular dormitory. Just as she was about to register, the teacher looked up and asked, “Xiao Miaomiao, there aren’t enough regular dormitories right now. Why don’t you talk to your parents about whether you want to move into the new building?”

　　Xiao Miaomiao hesitated for a moment and said, “Teacher, my mom went to the provincial capital to take an exam.”

　　Xiao Miaomiao’s parents are both teachers, and this is their busiest time. Friends are helping with all the procedures here, so they don’t have to worry about anything.

　　You should ask!

　　Xiao Miaomiao’s parents seemed to know about this situation. The occupancy rate of the new buildings here was less than 30%. People with connections could sometimes benefit from it, but they also had to put in effort at other times.

　　”Teacher, my mom said she’ll pay the difference, but I want to share a dorm room with my classmate.”

　　Xiao Miaomiao pulled up Yao Le’er who was next to her.

　　The request wasn’t unreasonable, and the teacher quickly arranged it. The two little girls happily hugged each other and cheered.

　　After receiving the dormitory number, Xu Bin immediately followed them to the dormitory. However, the rules were strict and parents were not allowed to enter the dormitory building to help with the setup. Xu Bin could only sigh, as his long-cherished wish to visit the girls’ dormitory was thus dashed.

　　”Dear parents, the school drop-off time is over. Please leave the campus now.”

　　Xu Bin left in the evening, but the traffic was a bit congested, so he gave up trying to be attentive and told his mother-in-law, Shen Ruyu, that it would be faster for her to take a taxi there.

　　The subway was also congested, and when I met my wife Yao Nan in the lobby of Ocean World, my mother-in-law had not yet arrived.

　　”Honey, the name of this place is really interesting, it’s almost like an aquarium…”

　　”Honey, they say the buffet here is really good!!”

　　As they were talking, Shen Ruyu, the mother-in-law, arrived. She was all smiles and looked charming; it was clear she had won money.

　　However, there was another person following behind her. The pretty widow Yanzi wore a low-cut dress that outlined her charming curves. Unlike her mother-in-law’s voluptuous figure, although she also had a devilish figure, she was not as voluptuous.

　　Even so, her eyes and smile were like a fox’s, exuding an indescribable flirtatious charm. She was very well-maintained and exuded femininity. Her long, wavy hair further highlighted the unrestrained nature unique to her age.

　　”Mom, Aunt Yanzi.”

　　Yao Nan immediately stood up obediently.

　　Yanzi said with a smile, “Nannan, the best food here isn’t the buffet, but the ocean-view restaurant.”

　　”That must be very expensive!”

　　Yao Nan hesitated upon hearing this.

　　Yanzi smiled at Xu Bin and said, “It’s not expensive at all. Your husband is so successful. Last time, he even specially packed lunch from here to send to your mother. We were so envious.”

　　My mother-in-law, Shen Ruyu, said in a very proud tone, “We didn’t have enough people to play mahjong tonight, so I brought Aunt Yanzi along because she was bored.”

　　”Mom, I’ll go get the package ticket.”

　　Xu Bin didn’t ask her why she came along. Given the style of their group, it was obvious that his mother-in-law was showing off. Then someone started making sarcastic remarks, and Yanzi said she came along to see if it was true.

　　My mother-in-law, with her temperament, would definitely agree immediately. No matter how much she regretted it, she couldn’t lose face even if she was ripped off, so she brought her along.

　　Xu Bin was determined to complete his mission of taking care of his wife, and he didn’t care about having another one.
