Chapter 42: My Husband’s Voice

“You can come to me! I want to be your husband, too!” said the boy, puckering his mouth.

“No!” Ning Tiantian immediately refused, and said loudly, “you are much uglier than my husband. I don’t want you!”

The rejected boy burst into tears.

When Miss Mi heard the cry, she came in. She knew that it must be Ning Tiantian who made the boy cry, as she was the only one in her class who was capable of “bullying” a boy. After coaxing the little boy into stopping crying, she told everyone about the shut down of the school bus. She had told their parents to pick them up after school.

When school was over, Ning Tiantian sat in the classroom and waited for Li Yanmo to come. She looked like a good baby.

Li Yanmo wouldn’t leave his school for another 30 minutes, so she had to wait half an hour.

“Tiantian, don’t wait for your husband. I’ll buy you ice cream!”

“Tiantian, you can’t eat your husband, but you can eat ice cream.”

The boys in the class fought for taking Ning Tiantian and Cookie to the opposite dessert shop. They didn’t care that Ning Tiantian was betrothed as a child, as long as Ning Tiantian would agree to be their girlfriend.

“I am not going!” Ning Tiantian clutched her desk firmly because she promised Inky that she would wait for him.

“They only have fifty strawberry ice creams today. First come, first served. If you don’t go now, it’ll be sold out,” said Cookie with a grin.

“Really?” For a while, Ning Tiantian was struggling. Then, she grabbed her school bag and ran out. “Why didn’t you tell me earlier? What if it’s sold out?”

Anyway, she still had half an hour. After she bought ice cream and returned, Inky wouldn’t find out.

The boys were surprised to see how Ning Tiantian changed her mind in a second.

The boys were willing to buy ice cream only for Ning Tiantian and Cookie. Other girls got jealous of this, especially the chubby girl, Zhou Xiaoxiao. She looked at Ning Tiantian and Cookie scornfully, then raised her head, pretending that she didn’t care at all.

“Hum, ice cream… My father said that he would take me to taste shark fin in the evening!” Zhou Xiaoxiao said.

“She is jealous. It’s just sour grapes. We don’t care about her!” a boy said.

“Ignore her! Ignore her!” another boy added.

The kids laughed at Zhou Xiaoxiao, then followed Ning Tiantian and Cookie out.

Zhou Xiaoxiao stamped her feet out of anger. Her fat belly shook. She ran into the luxurious car on the roadside and left school.

When Li Yanmo came to Ning Tiantian’s preschool, he saw Ning Tiantian surrounded by a group of boys, and they were walking toward the opposite dessert shop just when he stopped his bicycle.

“Ning Tiantian.” Under a big sycamore tree, the young boy stood against the light, making it difficult for him to be seen clearly. His voice was a little indifferent, which dispelled the summer heat.

“It’s my husband’s voice!” Ning Tiantian stopped at once and looked around. When she saw Li Yanmo, she immediately pushed away the boys beside her and ran toward him.

“Husband, you were supposed to leave school in half an hour.”

Ning Tiantian looked at his angry face, and her happy tone gradually turned into uneasy. What was wrong with her husband?

“I told you to wait for me in the classroom.” He couldn’t help but sneer.

Li Yanmo felt like an idiot. He had been worried about Ning Tiantian getting bored in the classroom alone. So he asked the head teacher to leave to pick her up earlier. However, when he came, he saw her talking and laughing happily with a group of boys.
