After Being Reborn and Regaining Her Identity, the True Heiress Is Spoiled in the Seventies-Chapter 395: All Have Their Own Thing to Do
Chapter 395
A couple of days ago, Pei Jing had already returned, just to prepare for his daughter's college entrance examination and cheer her on. This was a treatment that Chenye did not get when he took the exam.
Before dawn, Pei Jing was already up, waking up Wanqing who was still fast asleep.
"It's still early, why are you getting up so early?" It was even earlier than when he usually worked out.
"No reason, you can go back to sleep, I'll just go take a look outside." He just vaguely saw that there was still some light outside.
Opening the door and going out, sure enough, it was Wanqing's room.
Pei Jing walked to her door and saw a figure moving around inside. Making sure she was not sleeping, he raised his hand and knocked on the door.
The door opened, and a sleepy-eyed Wanqing asked, "Dad, why are you knocking on my door in the middle of the night?"
"I should be asking you, the college entrance exam is tomorrow, why aren't you resting well and getting up so early to pace around in your room?" Pei Jing stroked her head indulgently, grumbling unhappily.
Wanqing looked up speechlessly, wronged. "I wanted to rest well too, but I don't know why, probably because I was made nervous by those classmates yesterday. They got me feeling strangely nervous too. I had nightmares all night that I didn't get admitted, and then you all laughed at me..."
"What nonsense. They're worried because their grades are bad. You've always been in the top few in your class. If even you can't get admitted, what hope do the others have?" Pei Jing was not worried about this at all. Moreover, Wanqing's school was excellent. As the family's only daughter, Knows Snow and Pei Jing did not want her to go too far, and had agreed early on to have her apply for Jin Cheng University.
That way she could still be close to home. If she wanted independence she could live on campus, and if she wanted to come home she could.
"Hehe..." Wanqing smiled awkwardly. She also didn't know what she was nervous about. Anyway, the people around her were pretty nervous, she was probably affected. "Dad, I'll sleep now. You should go back to bed too."
"Go on, rest well. Dad will go buy your favorite crystal shrimp dumplings later."
"But I want to eat the ones you make." Wanqing coaxed.
"Then I'll go ask your mom for shrimp now. When you wake up in the morning you'll be able to eat them."
The child was usually well behaved too. Rarely making demands, Pei Jing was happy to indulge her.
Wanqing was moved but also felt quite embarrassed. "Won't you be too tired?"
"No, I'm thrilled my daughter is making requests of me." Pei Jing said.
Knows Snow was woken up groggily by Pei Jing. After this she was not sleepy either, so the two of them simply got up and started busy.
When Wanqing got up in the morning, she saw the freshly fried crystal shrimp dumplings, and was instantly moved to tears.
"Dad, Mom, you guys are the best, I love you so much!"
Little Six's unwashed sleepy face blurted out, "Bootlicker!"
Wanqing went over and grabbed his ear. "Pei Chenyou, what did you say? Itching for a beating?"
"I said big sister is so pretty today, and smart, she'll definitely get into her ideal university." Little Six flattered cleverly.
"Not bad judgement." Wanqing only then let go of his ear.
Seeing the siblings joking around, Knows Snow and Pei Jing looked at each other helplessly and shook their heads.
"Hurry up and stop messing around, go wash up and eat, it won't taste good when it gets cold." Knows Snow urged them.
Wanqing had already tidied up and quickly brought the shrimp dumplings to the dining table, even saying deliberately, "I'm going to eat them all, won't save any for certain brats."
Little Six knew she meant him, but he was not afraid either, because he knew mom would definitely not bear to let him go hungry.
After breakfast, Pei Jing and Knows Snow went with her to the exam site.
Wanqing was still a little reluctant. Children this age were often like this, thinking themselves grown up already, and unwilling to let parents interfere with their matters.
But the truth was, they were still far from truly grown up.
True maturity was not about physical age, but emotional growth.
She had been doted on by her family since she was little. Although already 15, she still had a childish temperament.
Outside the exam site it was crowded with aspiring parents. No matter the era, there was never a lack of parents thirsty for knowledge.
Many people sent their kids then left, while many chose to linger outside the exam hall waiting.
Pei Jing and Knows Snow chose to take a stroll nearby, then come back to pick her up when it was time. Waiting here the whole afternoon would be hard to endure.
Wanqing and her classmates came out of the exam hall together and threw themselves into their parents' arms.
They had already agreed not to ask the child how the exam went right away, but to take her out to play and relax first.
When they got home, both Wanqing and Knows Snow felt like their legs were going to give out from tiredness, only Pei Jing still had ample energy to handle the sons, because they were unhappy about being left out of the day's outing.
Knows Snow went back to the room to rest, and had just lain down on the bed when Wanqing came in.
"Weren't you just complaining your feet hurt?" Knows Snow suddenly reacted. "Sweetie, is there something you want to discuss with mom?"
"Mom, I want to find some work to do with my classmates this summer, what do you think?" Although she didn't need to worry about money or school fees, quite a few classmates were going. Two months was quite a long time, she found just staying home boring too, so she wanted to join them.
Over the past two years, Chenye had also seldom asked the family for money. She was supportive of the children wanting to earn their own money.
"Of course that's fine, but do you girls have something specific in mind? Do you need mom's help?"
"Two of my classmates want to work at your factory for two months, but me and two other classmates said we wanted try doing some small business. We don't need your help with that, we want to figure it out ourselves."
Those classmates of hers also came from well-off families. The three of them were not lacking money, they mainly just wanted to enjoy the feeling of earning money themselves.
If the adults helped, it wouldn't truly be their own ability. That would defeat the purpose.
"They might be too young to work in the factory, but there are small parts at the factory that can be taken home for assembly. You can ask them if they're interested, I can arrange it for them if you girls do decide to start a business."
Red Maple Electronics Factory usually had long-term workers. Things like taking parts home to assemble were not done before.
But since the child brought it up in front of her, she could still help out a little.
Moreover, she had met Wanqing's classmates before, they were good kids.
"Thanks Mom! Then I'll go rest first, you should rest up too." Wanqing's fatigue was forgotten in her excitement. She bounced happily out the door, eager to tell her classmates about it right away.
Shortly after summer vacation started, Pei Jing took the triplets and Little Six away. Chenye also called to say he was busy with some things and would only be able to come back for a few days, probably telling Knows Snow not to make him come back if he was too busy, and they would go see him when they had time.
Although Wanqing didn't tell Knows Snow specifically what business they wanted to do, Knows Snow couldn't really leave them to their own devices. She secretly investigated, while pretending on the surface not to know.
