Chapter 164: Chapter 124: The Wealth-Attracting Golden Toad and an Old Acquaintance

Eddy International Kindergarten, outside the VIP reception area.

Knock, knock, knock.

A woman with a light, delicate makeup, wearing a purple suit set and flesh-colored stockings, stood at the door and knocked.

"Come in."

Upon hearing the voice inside, Jiang Yi gently pushed the door open and entered the room.

"Sister Dong, I’ve finished my work, just reporting back to you."

Jiang Yi approached the desk and respectfully spoke to a woman with pomegranate red-framed glasses and curly hair. 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

Dong Mei put down the carbon pen in her hand, speaking gently:

"Xiao Jiang, you’re back just in time."

"This afternoon, some parents are coming to enroll their child, and it’s a child from your class."

"You’ll take the parents around our campus and introduce our special courses to them."

"Try to get the enrollment done today."

"Alright, Sister Dong, I understand."

Jiang Yi slightly nodded in agreement; this was part of her responsibilities.

She just hoped in her heart that the child’s parents weren’t like the lecher who wouldn’t stop staring at her sensitive areas last time.

"Later, contact the parents in advance to see when they are coming."

"Welcome them at the gate, ensuring they feel the enthusiasm and importance our Eddy gives to students’ parents."

"Here’s the parent’s name and phone number."

"Oh, what a coincidence, Jiang Tao, this client has the same surname as you, Xiao Jiang, and your names sound like you’re family."

Dong Mei chuckled as she handed over an A4 paper with Jiang Tao’s information to Jiang Yi, jokingly.

"Jiang Tao?"

Jiang Yi reached out to take the A4 paper, and seeing the name on it, she was slightly lost in thought.

A vague figure quickly emerged in her mind.

It was a handsome boy.

Back then, in the first class of her career as a university counselor, after her self-introduction, she asked the students to introduce themselves one by one.

The first boy to stand up for the self-introduction was named Jiang Tao.

Both were named Jiang, Jiang Yi and Jiang Tao, and their introductions following each other caused a burst of laughter among the students.

Some mischievous students jokingly asked if they were related or siblings.

Because of that self-introduction, Jiang Tao left a deep impression on Jiang Yi.

In the following years, Jiang Yi obviously took more care of Jiang Tao than others in the class.

As if she really considered him a younger brother.

The years flew by, and nearly a decade had passed.

The once youthful boy should now be the pillar of a family, right?

Recalling the beauty of youth, a gentle smile appeared on Jiang Yi’s lips.

"Jiang Tao is a pretty common name; it must be just a coincidence."

Jiang Yi put away the paper, bid farewell to Dong Mei, and turned to leave.

Back in her office, Jiang Yi took out her phone from the small pocket of her suit and dialed the number on the A4 paper.

"Huh, it’s a number from Shishi?"

Seeing the dialed number was from the city where she once taught, Jiang Yi was once again surprised.

Ring, ring, ring—

The phone rang for a while before it was answered.

A man’s slightly breathless voice came from the other side.

"Hello... who is this?"

"Hello, Mr. Jiang, this is Jiang Yi, the homeroom teacher of class K4-3 from Eddy International Kindergarten. I’d like to schedule a time for you to come and handle your child’s enrollment."

"Jiang Yi? Oh, hello, Teacher Jiang. We’ll be there around... 3 PM, cough."

"Alright, I’ll wait for you at the gate, looking forward to meeting you."

"Okay, see you later."

The other side hurriedly hung up after speaking, without giving Jiang Yi a chance to reply.

Ending the call, Jiang Yi’s beautiful willowy eyebrows slightly furrowed.

The name, phone number, and voice all pointed to her former student.

Could it really be him?

"It should just be a coincidence..."

Jiang Yi thought about Eddy Kindergarten’s exorbitant tuition and immediately felt that this Jiang Tao wasn’t the same one she knew.

The annual tuition for the kindergarten department was 183,000, almost equal to her annual salary.

Even in a place like Beijing, it could be considered a "noble kindergarten."

Unless one had assets in the hundreds of millions, they’d be reluctant to send their child here.

The student she knew was just an ordinary college graduate from a rural background.

Besides being somewhat handsome, he hadn’t shown any special talents during college.

All in all, he should only have graduated six or seven years ago.

The chance of earning a million-dollar fortune was very slim.

Unless he won the lottery.

...

Bai Gezhuang New Village District.

Jiang Tao lounged comfortably on the large sofa in the living room.

Xu Li, facing away from him, was pouting while rinsing her mouth by the trash can.

"Honey, who was that just now? The voice sounded nice, she must be a beauty."

Xu Li spat out the water from her small cherry mouth, turned her head towards Jiang Tao, and asked with a charming smile.

Having just praised Xiao Jiang, the blush on Xu Li’s delicate face hadn’t faded, making her look even more beautiful.

"No one is prettier than my wife."

"It was a teacher from Eddy Kindergarten, saying they’ll welcome us this afternoon."

Jiang Tao said, getting up from the sofa and pulling up his pants zipper.

His compliment to Xu Li wasn’t insincere.

Whoever said home flowers aren’t as fragrant as wildflowers?

Not the case for his lovely wife!

"What time is the appointment? Should we go now?"

Xu Li spoke as she tied up the garbage bag in the trash can, preparing to take it downstairs later.
