Zhuzhu, engrossed in her swim ring, played in the water, saying, “The other kids have been learning for a long time, but I’m new here today, so of course, it won’t be so easy for me to learn. Mommy, if you’re diligent and take me ten or eight times, I’ll be able to swim too.”
“Mommy, you can’t expect me to know everything on my first try, can you?”
The little girl opened her big, beautiful eyes, but what she said made Xie Qingyu want to vomit blood.
Did she think that if she couldn’t do it, she should just give up?
And she was playing in the water so leisurely.
Xie Qingyu gritted her teeth and said, “If I had known, I would have bought a water tank and put it on the balcony at home so you could play in the water to your heart’s content.”
Zhuzhu immediately nodded happily: “Okay!”
Okay my foot!
Furious, Xie Qingyu glared at Duan Zihui: “Duan Zihui, come here and see your good daughter!”
Duan Zihui hadn’t actually gone far; he was right next to her, also being amused by Zhuzhu.
Hearing Xie Qingyu’s words, he glanced at her teasingly, then took the little girl out of the swimming ring and said with a smile, “Zhuzhu, listen to Mommy, let’s learn to swim properly, and Daddy will buy you toys when you learn, okay?”
Just like women never tire of cosmetics and clothes, and men are always interested in cars, Little Zhuzhu is never satisfied, no matter how many toys she has. Hearing her father’s words, she immediately perked up.
“Okay.”
The little girl who was just arguing with her was so easily appeased?
Xie Qingyu was so angry that she wanted to grind her teeth.
But when she saw that it was Duan Zihui who was supporting her and teaching the little girl who was uncoordinated in the water how to move, she felt a little better.
Since she didn’t need to teach her or pay for toys, she wasn’t unhappy about it.
Zhuzhu had a really low aptitude for swimming. After several attempts, she still failed.
“Dad, Dad, I don’t think I can learn it.”
“Dad, Dad, I don’t want to swim anymore.”
“Dad, can we learn it next time?”
With barely a breath, Little Zhuzhu said that learning to swim was really boring and tiring.
Duan Zihui did learn some methods of encouragement from the child, and he encouraged Zhuzhu.
“Hold on for just one more minute.”
“Try again.”
“That’s a big improvement.”
Chongchong also cheered for Zhuzhu from the side: “Go, Zhuzhu!”
“Zhuzhu, just hang in there a little longer.”
Ultimately, the practice session ended with Little Zhuzhu being able to make a few movements in the water on her own.
Both Xie Qingyu and Duan Zihui were relatively satisfied with this result. After leaving the swimming pool, they went to have lunch together.
They went to a rather expensive private restaurant. Xie Qingyu assumed that Duan Zihui would pay, so she naturally didn’t hold back when it came to eating.
But when it came time to pay after the meal, Duan Zihui frowned and said, “I don’t know where I left my card.”
Xie Qingyu: “…Don’t you have any money on your WeChat account?”
Duan Zihui: “I just transferred some out a couple of days ago, so it’s probably not enough.”
He immediately said, “You pay the bill first, and I’ll pay you back when I get back.”
Yan Zhen took out her phone and said, “How about I pay?”
Xie Qingyu wouldn’t let her pay. After glaring at him, she said, “It’s okay, I’ll pay first. Just need to remember to pay me back later.”
