Xu Fan coughed, drawing their attention towards him.

“Teacher Chen,” he finally began, “please take care of Tongtong at school.

If there’s any issue, feel free to call me or her mother anytime.”

Xu Yixue immediately said with a smile, “Teacher Chen, may I have your phone number, please?”

“Oh…

of course,” replied Chen Ranran as she took out her phone and they exchanged numbers.

By now, Chen Ranran had cleared her mind of any silly thoughts.

She truly loved her job as a preschool teacher.

Love, after all, cannot be forced; better to focus on work.

Then she added, “Tongtong’s mom, please join this group.

It includes all the parents of our class’s students.”

Xu Yixue nodded with a smile, “Sure, I will,” and immediately joined the class group.

After everything was settled, Xu Fan squatted down and affectionately stroked Tongtong’s little head, “Alright, Tongtong can go inside now.

Go play with the other kids.”

Tongtong peeked into the classroom.

Inside, there were already a dozen or so children chatting away noisily, the atmosphere lively.

Clutching her backpack, Tongtong blinked her beautiful big eyes, curiously staring at the classroom.

She took a couple of small steps into the room, then timidly looked around at the classroom decorations and the other children about her size.

The children in the classroom had already been sneaking peeks at her.

At that moment, a handsome little boy waved at Tongtong with a cheerful smile, and took the initiative to greet her, “Hello.”

Tongtong looked at the little boy somewhat blankly, then turned to look at Xu Fan.

Anxiety filled her beautiful eyes, but ultimately, she turned towards Xu Fan again, opened her pudgy little arms, and said in a soft, childlike voice, “Daddy, come in, come in quickly!”

Xu Fan stood still and said to Tongtong with a tender smile, “Tongtong, you must go in by yourself.

When school is over, Daddy will come to pick you up.”

“Hm?

Why?” Tongtong asked with curious big eyes, looking at Xu Fan.

Didn’t they agree to go to kindergarten together?

In an instant, her lips pursed, and watery mist filled her sparkling eyes.

Then, with small steps, she ran towards Xu Fan, whimpering, “No, Daddy promised to go to school with Tongtong.”

“I don’t want to go to kindergarten by myself, I want Daddy to come…

Daddy can’t lie to Tongtong…

wuwu.”

“Daddy doesn’t want Tongtong anymore…

Daddy is a big meanie…”

Tears covered her delicate little face, looking pitiful as she sobbed and hiccuped.

Anyone would find it hard to bear.

Xu Fan’s heart clenched, and he quickly embraced Tongtong.

He gently wiped her tears and coaxed softly, “Don’t cry, Tongtong.

Daddy is sorry.

Can you forgive Daddy?”

Chen Ranran was about to suggest they should leave, knowing it was normal for most children to react this way during their first time at kindergarten.

It’s natural for a child to be nervous, scared, and anxious when separating from their parents for the first time and staying with strangers.

In a little while, it would all be fine.

It was not a big deal and a part of every child’s development process they have to go through.

If parents coddled them at this moment, it would create a psychological dependency, which would be extremely detrimental to the child’s growth.

She had a way with consoling crying kids, but before she could even open her mouth to speak…

Xu Fan, who was steps away, suddenly leaped forward.

Xu Yixue watched Tongtong cry like this, and her eyes also reddened as she reached out to help wipe away the tears.

She softly comforted, “Tongtong, you’re the best, aren’t you?

Look, there are many other kids in the classroom who came to school by themselves, and they are all doing very, very well.

Tongtong can do it too, right?

When school’s over, mom and dad will come to pick you up, okay?”

“Then we’ll take Tongtong to have your favorite ice cream and go to the amusement park, shall we?”

If it were a normal tantrum, this approach would work wonders.

But now Tongtong shook her little head desperately, crying even louder.

“Wuu wuu…

I, I don’t want…

I want to go home, I want to go home with Daddy.”

Her little arms clung firmly to Xu Fan, as if terrified he might not want her.

The tears simply wouldn’t stop, streaming down her face.

It was as if she had suffered a great injustice, stirring pity in anyone who saw her.

“Wah…”

“Wuu wuu.”

At this moment, the other kids inside the classroom also started to cry loudly.

Chen Ranran hurried into the classroom to soothe everyone to stop crying.

How could Xu Fan bear to let his precious child cry like this?

He kept cooing, “Daddy is going home with Tongtong now, don’t cry Tongtong.

As long as Tongtong stops crying, Daddy will do anything you want.”

Even though Xu Fan hadn’t spent a long time with Tongtong, this adorable little one had already taken up a tremendously important place in his heart.

He was always careful not to speak too harshly to Tongtong, and now how could he bear to see her suffer so much?

Tongtong wrapped her arms around Xu Fan’s neck, and her hysterical crying finally ceased, as she hiccuped and asked, “Really?

Daddy won’t leave Tongtong, right, Tongtong wants to go home, I want to go home with Daddy right now…

Daddy, shall we go home?”

Xu Fan couldn’t hold back any longer and immediately turned around to take Tongtong home.

Xu Yixue rushed to the classroom to give Chen Ranran a quick notice, not even waiting for a response before she hurriedly followed.

Watching Tongtong cry like this also made Xu Yixue feel very upset.

She knew clearly that because Tongtong had never felt a father’s love as a little child, she was especially sensitive and fragile, so when Xu Fan appeared, she became incredibly dependent on that fatherly love, even more so than on her.

Now, to ask her to suddenly leave Xu Fan and stay in a strange place alone for a day, Tongtong definitely couldn’t handle it.

Xu Xuanyi and his wife, chatting in the corridor, saw Xu Fan suddenly carrying Tongtong back and showed no particular surprise in their expressions.

They knew very well how clingy Tongtong was to her father, understanding that managing to have her successfully stay for class right away was indeed a bit difficult.
