229 Chapter - I Only Regret That I Am Not The Strongest In Modern Times.

Ye Yao and Luo Jianhua returned home.

On the eve of returning home, Yao received a message from Ms. Yang.

They said that things had been settled with her parents.

However, some things were not explicitly stated.

They probably used a reason like "going to school in another city".

Although this might be a bit far-fetched for an average family.

Even parents wouldn't easily agree.

But this is not an ordinary family.

No matter how far-fetched the reason, it can be finalized quickly.

Xiao Jing had already prepared a hot meal.

The family members took their seats.

Xiao Jing also felt it was time to start talking about serious matters.

The countermeasures bureau told Ye Yao that they would explain things clearly to her parents.

Of course, there's no need to put on an awkward act under her nose.

It can be interpreted as Ye Yao and Luo Jianhua playing outside.

The countermeasures bureau came to explain everything.

Next, Xiao Jing and Lou Wei just need to go through the formalities.

"Little Yeyao, what are your thoughts on going to school?"

Ye Yao knew immediately that the show was about to begin.

The situation is now slightly complicated.

She had to pretend she was unaware of the situation and couldn't be too proactive about going to school.

After all, Xiao Jing and Lou Wei presented themselves as ordinary people with no special backgrounds.

If Ye Yao wanted to pretend that nothing was amiss, she could only act like an ordinary person who had not yet come into contact with the extraordinary world.

"Going to school... I think I'll be able to make more friends, right?"

Ye Yao did not show any positive or negative attitude.

It's as if going to school is something they can do without.

Seeing this, Xiao Jing couldn't help but feel a little emotional.

Unexpectedly, her lovely daughter also has a talent for acting.

It was clearly my own initiative to apply for further studies.

Now, surprisingly, you can't see any emotion she has about this at all.

Xiao Jing thought Ye Yao would eagerly agree to "go to school".

That left her with no choice but to continue acting.

The situation is delicate.

Ye Yao concealed the matter of the Countermeasures Bureau from her family.

Although he had already been in contact with the organization, he did not tell his family.

Of course, Xiao Jing had no right to complain.

She even concealed her identity as an elite member of the Countermeasures Bureau from Ye Yao.

They also pretended not to know anything about the countermeasures bureau.

At this point, we can only tentatively probe Ye Yao's thoughts in a cautious tone.

From both sides' perspectives, this seems to be just going through the motions.

【Xiao Jing inwardly admired your superb acting skills.】

It's hard to hold back.

Ye Yao almost couldn't hold back.

She's been acting for so long.

Xiao Jingcai realized it only after all.

If it weren't for what happened today, perhaps no one would know about her talent for being a drama ⊛ Nоvеlιght ⊛ (Read the full story) queen.

Xiao Jing took a deep breath.

"If I send you and Jianhua to school, would you like to go?"

Ordinary families don't usually seek their children's opinions about going to school.

When you reach a certain age, you have to go whether you want to or not.

Luo Jianhua answered first: "If it's with my sister, I don't mind."

Ye Yao pretended to be lost in thought.

Xiao Jing felt somewhat gratified upon seeing this.

Even though she appeared so resolute on the side of the countermeasures bureau.

Going home became such a hesitant decision.

He must be reluctant to part with his mother, right?

"I will be separated from my mother when I go to school, and I will miss her a little."

Ye Yao delivered a devastating blow to Xiao Jing.

"But if my mom wants me to go to school, I can listen to her."

Xiao Jingxin was almost melting.

My hand holding the chopsticks trembled slightly.

Those words made her want to go to the headquarters to accompany her while she studies!

However, it's a bit strange that Lou Wei, the father, wasn't mentioned at all.

Yes!

Lou Wei definitely didn't give enough fatherly love!

That's why she didn't hold much of a place in Ye Yao's heart.

Xiao Jing glanced sideways at Lou Wei beside her.

He was eating silently, seemingly unaware that there was anything wrong with it.

It's obvious that he didn't identify with the role of "father" at all.

Xiao Jing was furious.

Lou Wei is very strong, there's no denying that.

The only problem is that the human-computer interaction is too strong.

The only way to maintain the bond between father and daughter is for Ye Yao to take the initiative to invite them to play games.

Is this a human?

Xiao Jing reluctantly withdrew her gaze, preparing to continue fighting alone.

Lou Wei, on the other hand, only needs to bury his head in his food.

Xiao Jing will need to put in a lot of effort to act.

"After thinking about it carefully, I realized that staying at home all the time might not be good for children to integrate into society in the future. Children really need to go to school to meet all kinds of people."

"I happen to know a good school. Although it's a bit far from home, I have a relative living near the school who can look after you a little."

"Yes, yes, I'll do whatever Mom says."

Ye Yao nodded, choosing not to continue the performance.

You should know that she is now the enlightened Ye Yao.

The countermeasures bureau already knows about her decision.

Wouldn't it make you seem very clever to keep acting on Xiao Jing's side?

Acting too much is not a good thing.

Just obediently accept the arrangements.

Xiao Jing exhaled and smiled gently again.

"Don't worry, Mom will come to see you when she has time."

If you miss your mom, you can make a video call. You can also tell me if you feel wronged.

Even if you don't want to go to school anymore, you can come back anytime.

"Thank you, Mom!"

After finishing the meal.

Ye Yao and Luo Jianhua returned to their room.

As Xiao Jing cleared the dishes, she glanced at Lou Wei on the sofa.

Why didn't you say anything just now?

"There's nothing to say."

"Sigh, it's only because Ye Yao is well-behaved and sensible that she would definitely dislike you."

Lou Wei remained silent, only reading the newspaper.

Xiao Jing knew his personality well; saying too much wouldn't make a difference.

"I didn't expect Xiao Yeyao to be such a good actress; she even hid her emotions very well."

If it weren't for that inexplicable prophecy, she might have become an actress.

"It's pretty good."

Lou Wei casually echoed.

It still feels incredibly human-machine.

He had actually been secretly monitoring Ye Yao's condition.

When he said those words, he clearly didn't completely hide the subtle emotional fluctuations.

From the perspective of an S-class superhuman, this would be considered a lie.

Xiao Jing just couldn't tell.

Xiao Jing was too lazy to be angry with Lou Wei after hearing his perfunctory reply.

"In a few days, Ye Yao and Jian Hua should be heading to headquarters."

Without my care, can that child really adapt to life at headquarters?

Xiao Jing thought of Fu Qi.

He is Ye Yao's uncle on the surface.

He is also the director of the Countermeasures Bureau.

He probably won't use his position as bureau chief when he appears in front of Ye Yao.

Let him take care of Ye Yao?

Let's forget about it.

In terms of caring for people, Fu Qi is probably only slightly better than Lou Wei.

Should we hand it over to other female colleagues?

It doesn't seem like that will work either.

Night Ballad might not accept it.

Perhaps the only solution is to let her be independent.

But Ye Yao had only been away from the orphanage for a short time, and she was already expected to become independent so quickly.

Xiao Jing felt heartbroken just thinking about it.

wrong.

There are also rosebuds that can help take care of it.

It's a bit of a stretch to have one child take care of another.

Fortunately, Luo Jianhua is a reliable younger sister.

Xiao Jing felt a little relieved when she thought of this.

Then look at Lou Wei sitting on the sofa.

Xiao Jing was immediately furious.

She, as a mother, could only stay at home.

Lou Wei, however, was able to secretly follow and protect her.

Xiao Jing only regrets that she is not the strongest in modern times.
