Why it never ends

Chapter 886 Attic

Ding Yuqing also held her breath. She subconsciously went to see her sister. Seeing that Ding Xueyang became a little dazed, she immediately walked through the crowd and went to hold her sister's hand.

The air solidified briefly, and Xu Ruyi was thinking about how to smooth things over. Miaomiao had already stood up holding the toy truck, "What? You don't like it!? Are you saying you don't like it?"

Miaomiao's voice was clearly filled with anger. Ding Xueyang came back to his senses and quickly pressed his daughter's shoulders, "...speak carefully."

The pressure suddenly came to Jingjing. She frowned and looked at her mother again, "But that's what boys play with..."

"You saw what I said!" Miaomiao said loudly, "Have you ever played it and you just said you didn't like it?"

Xu Ruyi also leaned over and hugged Miaomiao to prevent her from rushing out suddenly, "Hey, it's okay if people don't like the gift you gave me. How can you force others to like it-"

"She has never played before!" Miaomiao raised her head, "This is super fun!"

The child at the other end had already left the table in uneasiness and ran to hide behind his mother. He only observed Miaomiao's reaction from the gap in the adult's arms.

"I'm sorry," Xu Ruyi said with a smile, "Miaomiao is just... too domineering sometimes."

"It's okay." The woman smiled, hugged her daughter again, and kissed her again, "Our family has been very well-behaved Jingjing since she was a child——"

"Won't you give it a try?" Ding Xueyang said suddenly.

"what?"

"Try this truck." Ding Xueyang picked up the truck box, "This is the model that Miaomiao took a long time to choose. Otherwise..."

"No need." The woman said with a smile, "We Jingjing don't like these things. Her father even enrolled her in a Go class before. I said those are things boys like. If there is anything to learn, Jingjing will come later. It’s hard to tell after less than two weeks, it’s boring. Some things are just natural and cannot be achieved through force.”

Seeing Ding Xueyang hesitate to speak, the woman lowered her head, "Jingjing, tell yourself, do you want to play with that truck?"

The child immediately shook his head and said firmly, "No, I don't like it."

"I thought about it! She thought about it!" Miao Miao struggled in Xu Ruyi's arms. The way she struggled to break free was very funny, and everyone present laughed in unison. Finally, Ding Xueyang led her daughter back to the room for a while, and Miao Miao calmed down.

The cake party for the children is over, and the dinner party for the adults has just begun. Xu Ruyi and Ding Xueyang entertained the visitors, while Ding Yuqing took a dozen children and a few older friends to visit Miaomiao's model collection.

The moment the master bedroom door opened, everyone let out a long exclamation. A whole glass display window was filled with various ship models in chronological order. Under each model, there were ship names and names written by Miaomiao. The year it was put into use.

Ksenia watched with great concentration. On the one hand, she knew that being born in an urban area was a womb lottery to another degree, but she had never felt this concretely and intuitively until today. On the other hand, even In urban areas, the amount of money this family is willing to spend on their daughter has reached an astonishing level...

She turned back and sighed with Hesta, her eyes swept across the room, and Kseniya suddenly realized that Miao Miao and Jingjing, the two protagonists of today's party, were missing.

"Have you seen them?"

Hesta looked around and saw no one, so he went to ask Ding Yuqing.

Ding Yuqing made a shushing gesture with a faint smile on her face. "It's in the attic."

……

At the dinner table, the adults chatted and laughed happily. Most of the guests tonight are locals of Orange Town and have known each other for a long time. In comparison, Ding Xueyang, who just moved to Orange Town this year, is a stranger here. Everyone curiously asked her many questions, such as how she decorated this dreamlike living room, how she usually takes care of the flower stand on the sunny side, what is her husband's name, what kind of job he does, and where he usually works...

Whenever the question involves Shi Pingchuan, Xu Ruyi's heart is raised - she is afraid that her daughter will talk too much and make everyone realize that Miao Miao's father is the man who was caught at the airport some time ago.

Fortunately, whenever a guest asked questions related to Shi Pingchuan, Ding Xueyang only gave some vague truths. Although he answered every question, he seemed to have said nothing.

After hearing this, Xu Ruyi couldn't help but look at her daughter a few more times - Ding Xueyang's answer was a bit too cautious... so cautious that it made her suspicious.

After a while, the children who went upstairs to visit returned to the children's corner in the living room. Everyone played together like they did in kindergarten. Miaomiao and Jingjing were the last couple to come down. Even when going down the stairs, the two children had to hold hands. Ding Yuqing was afraid that the two of them would accidentally roll down together, so she had to walk in front of the children to prevent them from missing anything.

As soon as Jingjing arrived in the living room, she went to her mother first. Her mother asked her if she was hungry and if she wanted something to eat. The child took two sips of juice and said she wanted to play house with Miaomiao and the others.

The woman smiled and agreed.

Everything was normal up to this point, but then there were children running and screaming in the living room while making faces.

"What are you doing?" the woman glanced at her, "Aren't you going to play house together?"

"It's a play house," another parent explained, "but the theme should be survival after a disaster."

The woman thought she heard wrongly, "...what after the disaster?"

"Last month, a promoter from AHgAs went to their kindergarten to preach and conduct crisis drills. At that time, they also sent home a document for parents to sign - didn't you read it?"

"Last month..." the woman recalled for a while, "Oh, last month I was on a business trip for a week. Maybe her father signed it. What kind of crisis drill?"

"Earthquakes, nuclear power plant leaks, etc. You'd better look for the manual when you go back. There is some information in it that you still need to know. For example, if a nuclear power alarm sounds, parents must not think of coming to the kindergarten to pick up children first. There is no way to pick them up - the kindergarten will get all the children out of the air-raid shelter as soon as possible. We should also seize the time to take shelter and find an opportunity to contact them after they have settled down. "

The woman's expression froze for a moment, and then she laughed, "You should listen carefully."

"It's really fun. The manual is very practical. Our girl and I have practiced it several times at home -"

Another child whizzed past the woman.

"What is this for?" The child's recklessness once again made her feel unhappy, "Don't tell me this is also a drill?"

"It's a drill." A friend on the side laughed, "Isn't this pretending to be a 'chelate'?"
