Lin Zhilan led Su Li home.

Su Li was still immersed in joy, skipping and hopping along beside her.

Looking at his carefree attitude, and recalling the expressions on Meng Lan and Teacher Zhuang's faces earlier, Lin Zhilan felt both annoyed and amused.

When they entered the house, Jiang Chengzhou and Linlin were still doing their homework.

Lin Zhilan glanced at it and softened her tone, "It's too late, don't stare at the book. Go for a walk in the yard, look at the distant green plants, don't ruin your eyes."

Jiang Chengzhou and Linlin exchanged a glance and obediently responded.

"And you," Lin Zhilan said, looking at Su Li, "come inside with me, I have something to tell you."

She pushed open the bedroom door, stepped aside to let Su Li go in first, then followed in herself and closed the door behind her.

Jiang Chengzhou and Linlin exchanged a glance and went to the door to eavesdrop.

Just then, Su Lang came home from get off work and saw the two children acting suspiciously. He laughed and asked, "What are you doing?"

"Shh..." Linlin took a step back guiltily and pointed inside the door, "Mom is giving Lili a lesson."

Su Lang put down his coat and joined the brother and sister in their wicked ways.

"What's wrong, Mom?"

Inside the bedroom, Lin Zhilan had just sat down when Su Li rushed over, holding onto the back of the chair and asking curiously.

Lin Zhilan pinched his cheek. "Do you know what dating is?"

Su Li nodded.

"Tell me about it."

Su Li laughed and said, "It's just that the two of us play together every day, and then we get married and have kids."

What a crude definition of "dating".

Lin Zhilan rubbed her temples. "Lili, look, your older brother and sister are older than you, but neither of them are dating, right?"

"Mmm."

"Aren't you too young? You and Nuonuo are good friends, you can be friends first, you don't necessarily have to be romantic partners, right?"

Su Li moved a chair and sat down neatly opposite Lin Zhilan. "Mom is wrong."

"What's wrong?" Lin Zhilan asked.

Su Li said seriously, "I have many good friends, but I only want to marry Nuonuo, so we're dating."

He spoke with such seriousness that it seemed he had no intention of giving up on "puppy love."

Lin Zhilan had no choice but to try a different approach, asking him, "Do you know how to date?"

Su Li nodded, "Be good to her."

That's true," Lin Zhilan said with a smile, "And what's even more important?"

Su Li thought about it seriously for a moment, "I don't know. Mom, can we really not give Nuonuo ice cream? But what if she likes it?"

This problem has been troubling Su Li for a long time.

This is currently Su Li's life dilemma.

My girlfriend loves ice cream, but it gives her diarrhea. Should I treat her to ice cream?

Lin Zhilan thought about it carefully and told her son, "Nono can't eat ice cream now. You two are too young. There are some things you don't know are right or wrong. So if Nono likes ice cream, you can only give her ice cream if her parents agree, okay?"

Su Li gave her a thumbs up. "Mom, you're so smart!"

"..."

Lin Zhilan smiled and said, "So you're willing to listen to your parents, right?"

"Uh-huh!"

"Then why don't your parents allow you to date? Why are you and Nuonuo so disobedient?"

Su Li said seriously, "Because adults make mistakes too. Nuonuo got diarrhea after eating ice cream, so it's right that you don't let him eat ice cream. But it's wrong for you adults to date yourselves and then forbid your child from dating!"

Lin Zhilan realized that her thoughts had been led astray by this boy again, so she quickly brought the topic back, "We're talking about how to date now?"

"I'm still young, Mom, teach me." Su Li immediately turned into a well-behaved child again.

Lin Zhilan said, "First of all, as a boy, you must learn to respect girls."

"Respect? What exactly constitutes respect?"

"Didn't Mom teach you about your own body boundaries before? You need to protect your own body boundaries, and you also need to protect the body boundaries of girls. And by girls, I don't just mean Nono."

"I know," Su Li nodded. "Before marriage, you can't hug or kiss girls, and you can't push or pull a girl's hair. If she shakes her head and backs away, it means she doesn't want to, and you have to stop immediately."

Su Li is a very energetic child, and she has been very strong since she was a child.

When he was a little over one year old, even a casual kick to Lin Zhilan would leave a bruise.

So Lin Zhilan and Su Lang tried to exhaust him every day. When he became a little more sensible, they would teach him that although he might be stronger than others, his strength was meant to protect others, not to bully them.

Su Li was quite obedient in this respect.

Sometimes when he argues with other children, he won't fight back if someone pushes him.

Linlin and Chengzhou told her about this. Lin Zhilan was relieved but also felt sorry for her after hearing it, and she even talked to Su Li about it.

However, Su Li was quite carefree and even boasted to her that the little boy was too weak to push him at all.

Thinking of this, Lin Zhilan reached out and poked Su Li's still chubby little face, "You brat, you have to keep your word. Even if you and Nuonuo have a fight one day, you can't hurt others, understand?"

"Of course!" Su Li looked at her with a "you're underestimating me" gaze, then hugged her arm. "Mom, you haven't taught me how to date yet."

"You should learn from your dad."

"whee."

Lin Zhilan glanced at him. "What are you laughing at?"

"Mom loves Dad," Su Li said.

Lin Zhilan couldn't help but pinch his cheek, "You're so clever, go, go, go out and play."

Su Li hummed in agreement, turned around and opened the door. As soon as she looked up, she saw her father.

Su Lichong and Su Lang grinned, "Dad was eavesdropping!"

Su Lang turned to look at his nephew and daughter who were fleeing the crime scene, and forced a smile. "Dad wasn't eavesdropping. I just got here."

Su Li crossed her arms and conveyed the message "Do you think I believe you?" with her eyes.

Su Lang chuckled, "Didn't you want to learn how to date with me? How dare you treat me like this?"

Su Li awkwardly lowered her arm. "How are you going to teach me?"

Su Lang raised an eyebrow. "Come with me."

On his first day learning how to date, Su Li started washing dishes and doing housework with his dad.

Unfortunately, this kid was too eager to succeed and started running before he could even crawl.

The next evening, right after he finished eating, he ran to Zhuang Nuo's house and said he wanted to wash their dishes.

Meng Lan was working the night shift, Zhuang Yi was tutoring students in another room, and Nuonuo was the only one at home with nothing to do.

Su Li came to the house to wash the dishes. Nuonuo didn't know why and thought it was some kind of game, so she took him to the kitchen.

As a result, when Zhuang Yi and Meng Lan weren't paying attention, only half a dozen bowls remained in the house.
