Chapter 207 - Chapter 207 Chapter 207 Scumbag Uncle Can You Be a Bit Smarter

Chapter 207: Chapter 207: Scumbag Uncle, Can You Be a Bit Smarter? Chapter 207: Chapter 207: Scumbag Uncle, Can You Be a Bit Smarter? The garden was buzzing with excitement as the children all set up their small stools, eagerly awaiting the upcoming activities.

The parents of the other children came in pairs, mothers and fathers together.

Only Ningning lacked a father, while Doudou, Chengcheng, and Chen Bao lacked a mother.

The teacher, seeing that these children played well together, suggested that the parents pair up temporarily to facilitate participation in the upcoming events, as all those activities required both mommy and daddy to participate!

Despite being reluctant, Ning Yichu agreed for the sake of her child.

The chubby principal made an opening speech, and the parent-child sports day officially commenced.

The first game to start was the traditional three-legged race.

Chengcheng had no interest in joining because he kept thinking about what Li Lingyang had said in the car earlier.

Chen Bao thought the game was too easy, and Doudou was uncomfortable with this kind of sport, so Ningning eagerly raised her hand to participate.

“Can you do it?” asked Li Lingyang, concerned about Ning Yichu’s supposed pregnancy.

Ning Yichu, who obviously forgot that Li Lingyang mistook her for a pregnant woman, asked back, “Why can’t I?”

Li Lingyang was silent for a few seconds,”Then if you feel uncomfortable later, remember to tell me immediately.”

It was just a game; what could possibly go wrong?

Clueless, Ning Yichu joined Ningning at the starting line and tied their legs together.

The surrounding children all cheered excitedly.

At the sound of the whistle, they couldn’t wait to rush forward.

However–

Li Lingyang and the others had just moved when they nearly fell spectacularly to the ground.

Because the three of them were each moving in their own direction!

Seeing that other families were rushing ahead, Ningning immediately gave her loser dad a disdainful glance.

“Deadbeat uncle, can’t you be a bit smarter?”

Li Lingyang, “…” Who was the one without a sense of rhythm?

Seeing other families cooperating and them falling at the start, Ning Yichu knew the situation was grim and immediately stopped the infighting, proposing, “Let’s do this. I’ll count down from three, and we’ll move our left foot first, then the right!”

Li Lingyang and Ningning had no objections and agreed in unison.

After they adjusted, their speed was much faster than before, and they overtook several families in succession…

But at their current speed, snagging first place was still difficult.

Overcome by her competitive spirit, Ningning couldn’t help speeding up but didn’t expect that in her haste, she would misstep. Her entire body lost control, and she couldn’t help falling forward.

Ningning’s heart leaped with fear, and she closed her eyes.

Just in the nick of time, Li Lingyang and Ning Yichu reacted quickly, almost simultaneously reaching out to steady Ningning’s arms, and the little girl narrowly avoided disaster.

Afterward, Li Lingyang and Ning Yichu both paused, surprised by each other’s actions.

Ning Yichu quickly turned her face away and told Ningning, “Second place in the race, safety comes first. Haste does not bring success.”

Ningning nodded her head, yet she thought to herself that just now, deadbeat dad and mommy actually had some pretty good chemistry…

Looking at the other children participating, several had already overtaken her…

It seemed first place was out of reach.

“Ningning,” Li Lingyang said, looking at the little girl’s disappointed face, feeling a strange sensation in his heart, “do you really want to win first place?”

“Do you have a way?” Ningning’s eyes brightened in anticipation as she stared at the man.

Li Lingyang’s lips slightly curled, “Bear with me a moment.”

“What… Ah…”

In the next instant, Li Lingyang, with a slight bend of his waist, pretended to lift Ningning with his arms, allowing her feet to stand on the tops of his own. The pair shifted from a three-legged troupe to a unified duo with three legs between them, sprinting toward the finish line in great strides.

Seeing them like that, other participants wanted to try the same, but the posture was too bizarre and ultimately, they were overtaken by others.

The closer they got to the finish line, the more anxious everyone became.

In no time, several families took a tumble, falling behind.

In the end, Li Lingyang and his team, in a burst of energy, sprinted to first place.

Ningning, holding Li Lingyang and Ning Yichu’s hands, jumped up excitedly. “Scumbag Uncle, you’re amazing! Mommy, did you see? We got first place…”

Upon hearing this nickname, Li Lingyang’s lips curled up. “I’m amazing yet you still call me Scumbag?”

Ningning coughed lightly and twisted her little figure before reluctantly correcting herself, “Considering your recent good behavior, I’ll call you Uncle Li, okay?”

Of course, should he dare bully Mommy, she would definitely not let him off the hook.

The following game was the balloon run.

The rules of the competition were as follows: the child would start by blowing up a balloon at the starting line, and the parents, face-to-face, had to transport the balloon to the opposite basket without using their hands.

In the end, the family with the most balloons in their basket won!

And there was an additional precondition: throughout the process of transporting the balloons, hands were absolutely forbidden to touch them!

Li Lingyang and Ning Yichu had just finished the three-legged race and planned to rest, but Doudou, standing by, was very interested and tugged at Li Lingyang’s hem.

His big, watery eyes stared straight at him.

It was clear he wanted to play.

Li Lingyang’s mouth twitched up in a grin. “Doudou, Daddy is more than willing to play with you, but as you can see, this game also requires two parents to participate.”

A hint of disappointment flickered in Doudou’s large eyes, then he turned his beseeching gaze to Ning Yichu.

Without a word, in his cooing manner, the intention was plain…

Eventually, just seconds later, Ning Yichu, Li Lingyang, and Doudou stood in the game zone.

Doudou’s eyes curved into crescent moons, and his face broke into a sweet smile.

Before long, the competition began–

Doudou took the pump and swiftly created a beautiful balloon.

Since the parents weren’t allowed to use their hands, after a moment’s thought, Doudou placed it on their chests to hold it with their bodies as they moved.

Ning Yichu looked up and could see the man right in front of her, so close that she could feel their breaths mingling.

Their gazes, too, would accidentally collide.

She feigned composure, yet her ears involuntarily reddened.

“Is it really so hot today?” Li Lingyang’s eyes glinted teasingly, as he couldn’t help but ask, lips curling.

Ning Yichu refused to admit her embarrassment, stubbornly claiming, “I have a special constitution; I heat up quickly once I start moving.”

Li Lingyang looked at her enticing red lips, his gaze darkened, and his tone suggestive, “Indeed, that I can verify.”

Ning Yichu: “?”

She suspected he was flirting, but didn’t have the evidence.

Doudou stood there, cheering them on with hand gestures, “Daddy, go for it, Aunt Ning, go for it!”

The competition area was alive with excitement, with the number of balloons in each family’s basket gradually increasing.

However, Li Lingyang found this too slow, and glancing down, suggested, “You’re pregnant; lingering like this might not be good if it affects the baby. Let me help you instead.”
