Without hesitation, Meng Ke took hold of Nannan’s wrist and said without any more consideration. “I’ll take you to kindergarten.”
Qin Feng sighed inwardly. He was feeling quite guilty now. He knew that Nannan meant to drop by KFC, but they had not expected Meng Ke to suddenly wake up. They should have acted faster.
Nannan suddenly burst into tears. She seemed really sad. “Mommy, you are bad. Why aren’t you allowing Daddy to take me to the kindergarten? You know what my classmates say about me? They say that I don’t have a daddy, and they all bully me, ahhh…”
Nannan squatted down, crying hard with arms over her head.
Both Qin Feng and Meng Ke went quiet. They looked at each other and felt concerned. Nannan’s words moved the focus from who was taking her to the kindergarten to the fact that she had been bullied.
Meng Ke felt concerned too, but she was helpless as well. When Qin Feng gave up on himself earlier, she often talked with Nannan, who never mentioned that she had been bullied.
Her daughter did like throwing temper every now and then, yet she was, after all, a docile girl. She did not want Meng Ke to get worried, nor did she want to give Meng Ke too much pressure. Therefore, she chose not to reveal the truth. She hid her misery deep inside her heart.
“I’ll take her to kindergarten,” Qin Feng finally spoke up. This time, he did not leave any room for discussion, his tone resolute.
Qin Feng could not tolerate that Nannan was being bullied in kindergarten.
He took Nannan outside before Meng Ke could say anything. She did not stop him either. Instead, she stood on the spot for a while before turning to the dining table.
Seeing the orderly-placed breakfast, she could not help but feel moved. She mumbled to herself, “Am I over the top acting like that to him?”
Meng Ke started to, unexpectedly, blame herself. She had stopped Qin Feng and Nannan because she was too tired these days to think straight, especially when she just got up from bed.
After she calmed herself down, she started to feel increasingly uncomfortable. Qin Feng was truly changing, and he was not just all talk. He was trying his best to behave well.
Why couldn’t she just open her mind and give him one more chance?
“Qin Feng, I hope you won’t disappoint me again…” Meng Ke sighed, took the milk, and poured it into the toilet in the bathroom.
She did not suspect that Nannan was joking about rotten milk.
“But… I bought the milk just yesterday. How could it go bad?” Meng Ke found it strange, but probably because she was still in a drowsy state, she poured all of it in the kitchen into the sink.
In the meanwhile, outside the apartment, Qin Feng and Nannan were waiting for the elevator. His super-powerful hearing caught the sound of flushing. Then his heart experienced a moment of ache.
When Nannan was drinking the milk, she spat out most of the liquid and just drank a sip. Still, the medicine had been taken in, and she would definitely have an improved physique.
Meng Ke, on the other hand, took none. The milk would have been able to change her physical condition, especially the depression and anxiety. However, Qin Feng was just not allowed to tell the truth about blending medicine inside.
The tale that one pinch of medicine could make a huge change upon one person would not sound convincing, let alone Meng Ke who believed deeply in science. If she did not agree with something, the whole plan would fail, and she would start to turn suspicious.
“I have to come up with another method.” Qin Feng could not help but laugh bitterly. Since the medicine did not work, then massage might. Therefore, he had to think of a way to get closer to Meng Ke.
He did not dwell upon this question, instead turning to Nannan and asking seriously, “Anyone in the kindergarten hit you?”
“No, no!” Nannan shook her head. “No one hits me, but they laugh at me for not having a daddy, and they…” The girl suddenly paused.
“They what?” Qin Feng asked further.
“Nothing, nothing really, Daddy, trust me!”
“Your nose will get longer if you lie. Then no one will like you anymore.” Although Qin Feng spoke in a joking tone, he was determined to make Nannan tell the truth.
The girl was obviously frightened. She pursed her lips and continued, “Someone pushed me but did not hit me.”
“Okay.” Qin Feng nodded slightly as he patted Nannan’s head. He said seriously, “No matter what happens in the future, be brave and tell us, okay? We’ll protect you.”
“Also, if someone pushes you and bullies you, give them a punch, got it?” Qin Feng added.
This time, a furious voice arose from somewhere not so far away before Nannan gave a reply. “Hey, how could you tell a girl such a thing.”
It was Lin Lele, who had just walked out of the door for breakfast and work. She happened to hear what Qin Feng said and got quite angry.
She did not think that Qin Feng was talking nonsense. She did not plan to be in a romantic relationship with anyone, nor did she want to get married. But if she had a child, she would not want her or him to get bullied either.
However, Qin Feng was a special case, and Nannan was a girl too. No parents would teach a girl to start a fight.
“Aunt Lele, don’t worry, I won’t start a fight. I won’t listen to Daddy.” Nannan was smart enough to help her father out and change the subject. “Aunt, Daddy is taking me to KFC. What about joining us? It’s on him!”
“Okay.” Lin Lele nodded with a smile. She did not think about the health issue. She just believed that children loved this kind of food, and she liked being with Nannan too. Hence, she did not turn her invite down.
But she did not plan to make Qin Feng treat her. She was pretty aware of his financial state and was ready to pay the bill personally.

The elevator arrived, and the three of them went inside. After getting out of the compound, they went into the nearest KFC branch.
It was rush hour for breakfast, so the queue was long. Nannan stood in line with Qin Feng quietly. She was full of expectation and did not reach the head of the line until a long while later.
She was considering what she should eat when a chubby boy suddenly took her position.
“Why are you jumping the queue?” Nannan asked instantly.
“So what?” The chubby boy turned around and glared at Nannan. Then he sneered.. “Haha, isn’t this Qin Nannan who has no daddy? What are you doing here queuing for KFC?”
