"Alright, boss." Xia Xiaomin, whose hair was still wet from washing it in the morning, nodded gently.

Xia Xiaomin thought to herself, Li Yuanfang probably wouldn’t come.

A whole truck of graphene batteries—someone of Li Yuanfang’s stature would likely just send a trusted aide to pick up the goods.

But Mo Jingchun, who was leisurely lying on the sofa, had a different opinion.

With Li Yuanfang’s chatty nature, there’s at least an 80% chance he’d come.

Unless something else ties him up.

Just a casual guess, and hey! Mo Jingchun was spot on.

Originally, Li Yuanfang was planning to personally lead the team to Candy Technology, but last-minute issues prevented him from coming.

Li Yuanfang had long wanted to meet Mo Jingchun, but never had the chance.

This time he finally got the opportunity, only to be thwarted by unexpected plans.

The meetings at that place couldn’t be delayed nor shirked.

Sitting in a Hongqi car, Li Yuanfang, deep in thought, noticed the attendees were all from car enterprises.

Especially those with a foundation in electric vehicles.

As the skyscrapers outside flashed past, Li Yuanfang’s confusion began to clear.

Electric vehicles are more environmentally friendly, more economical, and have lower maintenance costs in the long run.

Additionally, electric vehicles are quieter and more comfortable, with stronger and faster acceleration than traditional cars, providing a significant push-back sensation.

The past two years have seen electric vehicles being warmly welcomed by the public.

But their downside is quite obvious: limited range, with most electric vehicles often facing undercharging issues and exaggerated range claims.

The most problematic for electric vehicles is driving on highways and mountainous roads.

Now, the most bothersome issue finds resolution with the advent of graphene batteries.

It’s just unclear how favorable the government’s policies will be this time.

Leaning against the glass, Candy, who saw many people already in the kindergarten, turned around anxiously and called to her brother:

"Brother, it’s nine o’clock. If we don’t go now, we’ll be really late."

Rubbing his eyes and yawning, Mo Jingchun stood up and stretched lazily.

"Let’s go."

Even before reaching the kindergarten gate, a group of little ones’ parents, seemingly led by someone, all greeted:

"Hello, boss."

Nodding, Mo Jingchun smiled and said, "Hello."

"Hello, boss."

"Hello."

...

As soon as Little Candy entered the classroom, a teacher hurriedly whisked her away.

In just about ten minutes, the little one returned, humming a tune and skipping.

In such a short time, she had undergone a dramatic transformation.

The single ponytail she had was now styled into a pretty hairstyle by the skillful teacher.

Moreover, her face now bore a light makeup applied by a professional makeup artist.

The subtle changes made Candy even more adorable.

Especially those cheeks, Mo Jingchun couldn’t resist wanting to pinch them.

At nine thirty, a smiling hostess in a dress walked onto the stage.

"Dear students, teachers, everyone, hello!

The annual International Children’s Day has arrived with much anticipation from the students. This is a grand festival for children!

On this sunny, vibrant day, on behalf of all the teachers at Candy Technology Kindergarten, we extend our warmest congratulations to the students. Happy holidays! We also express our heartfelt thanks and profound respect to all the teachers who have diligently nurtured us for healthy growth!

Dear students, we are the future masters of the world. We must cultivate good morals from a young age, strive to learn various skills, and when ready, soar into the sky and sweep across the skies.

Today, the young singers from our school will take to the stage to showcase their singing talents and artistry.

Let music and smiles coexist, let blessings and happiness walk together."

Watching the host on stage prattle on endlessly, Mo Jingchun rubbed his forehead, feeling speechless.

Where did this speech get plagiarized from? Didn’t anyone think that these children they’re addressing are only a few years old?

Delivering such a long speech, who’d be willing to listen?

Would the little ones really understand it? Mo Jingchun, for one, was doubtful.

Since the speech began, Candy sat quietly on her little stool.

But upon realizing she couldn’t understand it, she started chatting softly with Xiang’Er beside her.

All of this was noticed by Mo Jingchun.

Coincidentally, the kindergarten principal had been keeping an eye on the boss’s expressions.

Upon noticing the change in the boss’s demeanor, the kindergarten principal’s heart skipped a beat.

"Boss."

Mo Jingchun glanced at the principal, who had brought a small stool over to him, and said indifferently, "For these children, performances are what interest them. As for everything else, they won’t care."

"Rest assured, boss, I’ll go and have it arranged right away for the performances to start immediately."

As time ticked by, the children’s performances continued one after another.

Many kids took the stage several times, ending up sweating heavily, yet they thoroughly enjoyed themselves.

By around eleven in the afternoon, the sun was directly overhead.

Fortunately, a sunshade had been set up above the kindergarten grounds, and even though it was noon, sitting inside wasn’t too hot.

"Now, let’s welcome our little music prodigy, Mo Xiaoxue, to perform a piano piece—’Children’s Dreams’."

"Please welcome her!" 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

Amidst much anticipation, the little one lifted the hem of her dress and walked onto the stage.

Politely, she gave a deep bow to the audience.

The audience erupted into applause.

How much of this applause was genuinely for the little one, and how much for Mo Jingchun sitting there, was uncertain.

What was certain was that the children’s applause was purely from heartfelt admiration.

Mo Xiaoxue was, after all, the top figure, the big sister at Candy Kindergarten!

Children’s adoration is just that simple.

Devoid of adult-like complexities.

Candy sat at the piano, taking a deep breath once the crowd quieted down, and gently placed her hands on the expensive piano.

With the movement of her fingers, one by one, notes sprang into the air, reaching the ears of the audience.

The power of music engulfed everyone.

When the final note died away, the adults were still lost in recollection.

"Beautiful."

The next second, the venue burst into thunderous applause, which seemed eternal.

With the performance over, the little ones began their vacation.

Three days of holiday—neither too long nor too short.

Walking with her brother on their way to the canteen, Candy held her brother’s warm hand and asked gleefully:

"Brother, wasn’t Guoguo amazing?"

Mo Jingchun raised his thumb with his other hand and smiled:

"Super amazing!"

"Our Guoguo is incredible, clinching first place again."

"Hehe, nothing to it, nothing to it! So easy!"

"Brother, in half a month, it’ll be summer break. Where should we go for fun?"

"We’ll talk about it later. Your sister Zhou Yaling will be back by then too."

"Oh right, sister will be back too!" The little one brightened up.

She could already savor the delicious meals her sister would make.
