I am chasing a rough man in the 80s -

Chapter 750: Chapter 750: Extremely Vengeful
Yu Jingting used the excuse of visiting Chen He as a chance to go to the Chen family’s place.
As soon as he arrived there, he spotted Chen Tong, the little brat who always gave his wife a headache, chasing butterflies in the courtyard with a net.
"Brother Jingting~" When Chen Tong saw him, he dropped the net and ran over to greet him, a hint of fear gleaming in his eyes.
"Why didn’t Sister Suizi come?" He had only met Suizi a few times, but he liked her very much. There was a strange sense of bond that made him excessively attached to Suizi.
Seeing the fierce Yu Jingting but not the beautiful Suizi, Tongtong was a bit disappointed.
"She’s busy. I came to keep you company. Aren’t you happy about that?"
Upon hearing that he would be stuck with him, Chen Tong tried hard to prevent any disappointment from showing on his face, instead forcing a smile, pretending to be calm, he asked: "How long are you planning to keep me company? Dad says you’re pretty busy at work."
Yu Jingting raised an eyebrow, this little kid had quite a mastermind for his age, suggesting when to leave in such a roundabout way?
"I’ve got all day today—I heard you’re going to the Children’s Palace? I happen to be going the same way, so I’ll take you there."
Chen Tong’s face went blank, his eyes devoid of light, looking as if he had taken a heavy blow. Yu Jingting felt a secret delight in his heart, hehehe, this little bugger even wanted to compete with him?
This news surprised Chen He.
"Jingting, aren’t you still getting your company ready? How do you have time to accompany my son?"
Chen Tong was nodding vigorously. That’s right, that’s right, you’re too busy, so hurry along. What are you doing here, scaring the children?
"My wife is handling the paperwork for me, and our boy-girl twins are also about the right age to start learning things. I am free right now, so I’ll go with you to take a look at the Children’s Palace."
This seemed a bit strange to Chen He.
Shouldn’t this job of helping children find extracurricular interest classes be done by Suizi?
Why had Jingting taken over?
"You’re not fighting with Suizi, are you?"
"Can we even afford to fight? What’s my status in the family? If she disobeys, I’ll discipline her." In Suizi’s absence, Yu Jingting took a chance to tell a tall story.
Having an understanding of their husband-wife dynamics, Chen He wouldn’t take his jokes seriously. However, when Tongtong heard that Yu Jingting hits Suizi, his eyes darkened. He bit his lip, clenched his little fist, and glared at Yu Jingting’s back with hatred.
Yu Jingting went with the father and son of the Chen family to the Children’s Palace.
In his mind, Chen Tong was just a little kid, easy to fool. Once at the Children’s Palace, as long as he distracted him with other activities and downplayed the dullness of the biology group, the kid would change his mind and not pursue it.
Wouldn’t that just complete the task his wife had given him, and then going home would mean hugging and claiming his reward from her?
But Yu Jingting underestimated Chen Tong’s stubbornness; this kid, despite all of his enticements, showed no interest in the other groups. He insisted on joining the biology group.
To coax him, Yu Jingting even promised to buy him new sneakers and sports attire, as long as he played football. He could even help him get autographs from the national team players.
Chen Tong just disdainfully shook his head, saying that playing football was for uncultured boys.
For the first time in his life, Yu Jingting had failed without even trying, and it was all because of this young brat.
But Chen Tong was a very stubborn child. Even when Yu Jingting tried to intimidate him, he still insisted on joining the group he liked.
Yu Jingting had never tasted such defeat before, and even wanted to tie up the little brat and give him a good beating.
When they left the Children’s Palace, Yu Jingting drove the Chen family father and son back home. Chen Tong dawdled until his father got out of the car, then when Yu Jingting wasn’t paying attention, he stuffed something under the seat cushion. Then, as if nothing had happened, he got out of the car and happily waved goodbye to Yu Jingting.
Yu Jingting didn’t want to go home and face his wife without any achievements, but he had no idea what to do with this troublesome kid just yet.
Feeling vexed, Yu Jingting drove to Third Aunt’s house to pick up Jiaojiao and Luoluo.
These two kids were taking piano lessons at Third Aunt’s place today, and by the time Yu Jingting got there, their lessons were still ongoing.
The piano room was filled with the sound of tinkling keys, making Yu Jingting’s head throb from the noise.
Luoluo was the first to finish her lessons. As a reward for her excellent performance, Third Aunt put a sticker on her forehead, it was from her favourite cartoon, and she had a Calabash Brother sticker on her forehead. Humming a tune, she bounced around to find her dad.
"Dad, look~" Luoluo pointed at her forehead, bragging.
"Maiden, aren’t you tired?" Yu Jingting rubbed his daughter’s small hands lovingly, he had thought she might give up on the piano because it was too tiring.
Luoluo shook her head, her face full of happiness, she wasn’t tired at all.
"Why don’t we learn something else? What’s so great about the piano ding-dong every day? See your cousin. Sitting on a piano stool for so long has flattened her butt - ah! Third Aunt, why did you hit me?"
Third Aunt put back the sheet music with a snort.
"I am going to tell Suizi that you’re inciting the child. Suizi would definitely scratch you up if she knew."
"Eh? Whose pretty little old lady is this? Third Aunt, you haven’t seen you for a few days, and your skin looks so much better, you look fabulous!"
Third Aunt couldn’t help but laugh, this naughty boy really was afraid of his wife.
"Stop worrying about the kids. Our Luoluo is a rare talented child who loves music and have a high understanding. She’s like a budding seedling blessed by ancestors. Don’t waste her potential. A child’s hobby is their most precious wealth. You might think it’s tiring, but your daughter doesn’t feel that way, it’s her hobby."
Looking at his delighted daughter with a Calabash Brother sticker on her forehead, Yu Jingting couldn’t help but think of Chen Tong.
"Third Aunt, can I ask you something? Where do these kids get their hobbies from?"
His question was on point. Third Aunt had been a teacher all her life, and although her career was interrupted by that special era, she was still full of wisdom. She began to speak fervently about her teaching experience.
"The nature of a child is to play and they will definitely resist learning. That’s when parents need to guide them. Look at Suizi, she really knows how to deal with children. Luoluo’s development over the years is the best testament. You should learn from Suizi."
Yu Jingting had deliberately avoided asking Suizi to avoid causing her any stress. Tongtong was Suizi’s trigger point, just the mention of him would set her off, so he continued to consult Third Aunt.
"So, is there any way to prevent a child from resisting learning?"
"You need to understand children’s psychological rules. Highlight their strengths and never suppress their enthusiasm. Most importantly, don’t overburden them with homework to avoid feelings of defeat. Progress in learning must be gradual, and children’s resistance to learning will improve."
Yu Jingting carefully stored these words in his heart.
Great, he decided to take a contrary approach. Reversing what Third Aunt had said would surely develop a child’s resistance to learning.
If he applied these to Chen Tong, would he not give up?
It was Jiaojiao’s turn to finish her lessons, the two children got in the car, chattering all the way.
Yu Jingting was preoccupied with thoughts of how to deal with Chen Tong when he suddenly heard Luoluo scream.
"Ah!!!"
Yu Jingting hit the brakes, turned back to see Jiaojiao pointing at the seat.
"There, there’s a snake here!!!!"
"Where?!" Yu Jingting leaned over, lifted the cushion to help his sister.
A small hand moved faster than he did, swiftly grabbing the item that made Jiaojiao scream.
