eyes glared fiercely at him. Was this his way of personally supervising! He didn't trust her, afraid she wouldn't clean it properly!“Good!” she choked out, turning back to face the shower and twisti...But Rong Ling is still Rong Ling, how could he possibly settle this with the little guy! He gave Rong Sanbo a reassuring look, and Rong Ling signaled to the child to put the white jade tiger away carefully. Anyway, with the child's current abilities, he wouldn't be able to find any master jeweler uncles. Rong Ling had plenty of time to have a good "talk" with the child behind closed doors!
Then, Rong Sanbo himself stepped forward, took the brocade box from the shelf, and received the jade tiger from the little boy. He carefully placed it inside the brocade box and then meticulously closed and sealed it. The little boy stretched out both hands, ready to take something from Rong Sanbo's hand. But Rong Sanbo didn't give it directly. Instead, he asked, "Little boy, what did you just call me!"
The little boy blinked and said directly, "Grandpa!"
"No, no!" Rong Sanbo shook his head. "When you receive this thing, you have to change your words!"
"Change your words!" The little guy frowned slightly.
"You'll have to call him Grandpa Three now!"
The little guy kept his mouth shut and didn't move.
Rong Sanbo continued to explain, “Your godfather calls me Third Uncle, so you have to call me Third Grandpa!”
The little boy uttered an "Oh!" and looked as if he had just understood something.
"Then I won't call you Third Grandpa, will you not give me this tiger!"
The little one raised his hand, his white and tender finger pointing at the brocade box Rong Sanbo held in his hands.
Rong Sanbo narrowed his eyes slightly and replied, "What do you think!"
...threw the problem back to the little guy, as if wanting him to solve it himself.
The little guy tilted his head slightly, letting out a dismissive "tch"!
"Grandpa, you're a grown-up, so you can't break your promises! This tiger is mine, you have to give it to me!"
As for children, Rong Sanbo wasn't as strict as he was with his subordinates. Perhaps at this age, he had developed a fondness for doting on grandchildren, and so a playful mood came over him.
"But if I absolutely must have you call me Grandpa Three, then I'll give you this tiger! What are you going to do, call me or not!"
The little fellow pouted, but his answer was cheerful.
Then I don't want it!
To be honest, this is quite hurtful! Rong Sanbo has lived such a long life and has never been rejected like this before. Especially considering his status and prestige, he's always been treated with reverence and admiration by everyone!
"Why is that!" Rong Sanbo suppressed the bitterness in his heart and coaxed, "Your grandpa is very powerful, many people are eager to call him Grandpa Three. If he became your Grandpa Three, he could give you many things you can't have now. You have to know, if it weren't for the fact that you are your godfather's godson, grandpa wouldn't allow you to call him that!"
The little guy shrugged his shoulders, clearly unconcerned.
"Grandpa, not everyone can be my third grandpa, even if you're my godfather's uncle!"
The little fellow said this with a hint of pride. His tone, while still not small, didn't make Rong Sanbo angry. Instead, the unpleasant feeling in his heart was also erased.
If a person is talented, they have to be a little arrogant!
“And…” the little fellow giggled, still having more to say. “Mommy said, ‘no good deed goes unpunished.’ Grandpa, you're so generous with your gifts and now want me to call you grandpa three times… that’s suspicious! I won't sell myself for a useless tiger!”
As soon as he uttered those words, a flash of astonishment crossed everyone's eyes!
At such a young age, he is able to learn quickly and see the bigger picture. This is already beyond just calling him "a genius"!
Rong Sanbo looked at such a little fellow, barely reaching his knees, and his heart was instantly filled with a huge wave of disdain. In an instant, many thoughts flashed through his mind, and then as he thought deeper, the more excited he became.
The little guy suddenly turned around and quickly ran behind Lin Meng, sticking out a cute little head and whispering in a childish voice, "Mommy, grandpa looks so cunning, Youyou is scared!"
But that ghostly and sinister look, how could he possibly be afraid!
Uncle Rong burst out laughing, "You rascal!"
"Come here, come here, take what you deserve back." Rong Sanbo handed out the gold box. "Grandpa said it and did it, how could he possibly coax a child's things!"
The little guy was still hiding behind Lin Meng's legs, not coming out. He shouted in a tender voice to Rong Ling.
"Daddy, you get it for Youyou!"
Little one, still playing tricks and scheming, even directing others! Let Rong Ling take care of it, everything will be perfectly fine!
Rong Ling went to get the lacquered box back, but the little boy didn't take it. Instead, he said, "Uncle, please keep it for me first. When my mommy and I go home later, Uncle can give the tiger back to me!"
Feng Ling extended a palm and gently rubbed the little fellow's head, softly reprimanding him with a hint of fondness.
You're such a suspicious person!
The little fellow's eyes curved, and he smiled.
When he was carried on someone's back, the little guy proudly told Lin Meng.
"Mommy, look, Youyou is so smart. Youyou said that, Grandpa couldn't refuse. Hehehe, the white tiger is mine, and I didn't spend a penny! Youyou didn't sell herself either!"
In front of Lin Meng, the little guy was mostly like an ordinary child, innocent and naive, but also with a childish cunning.
Lin Meng didn't hold back on her praise. She crouched down and gave the little one a hearty kiss on the cheek.
"Mommy's Yuyu is the best!"
The little guy burst into giggles immediately, laughing even harder than when he had received the priceless white jade tiger just now!
Mommy's praise and love are the most valuable gifts for little ones!
Although Rong Sanbo was still a little unwilling to give up, this kind of person, once he set his sights on something, would find a way to achieve it even if he faced difficulties and obstacles. He couldn't treat the young boy as an ordinary child because the boy's thinking ability was already quite outstanding. Since enticement didn't work, Rong Sanbo thought for a moment and decided to use military persuasion!
He brought the little boy to a garden, where four men in black were already waiting.
"Hey kid, want to watch these uncles fight It's just like in a martial arts movie!"
It seems that Rong Sanbo has done quite a bit of homework, knowing that the little fellow likes watching martial arts movies and imitating the moves inside, with some "humph humph ha ha" .
This is a gift that's right here in front of you, why wouldn't you accept it!
The little guy nodded, and the four men in black took turns fighting. They started with two against each other, then three, and finally ended up with one against three. All four of them were from special forces, so their skills were naturally top-notch, and they also had rich combat experience. Naturally, the fight was both dangerous and exciting, a real treat for the eyes! The little guy watched with shining eyes, like two black diamonds hidden inside.
Rong Sanbo calmly observed the young lad, nodding slightly in his heart. He didn't believe that even if he brought out a few of his most capable subordinates, this little guy would remain unmoved!
After the four of them engaged in an unusually fierce and desperate fight, the little kid reluctantly withdrew his gaze. His small head instinctively began to commit each of their moves to memory. He then simulated the techniques in his mind, trying his best to incorporate them into his own style!
Seeing this, Rong Sanbo felt another sigh of admiration in his heart. He was simply overjoyed with such a little guy! Of course, if this child's mommy could be Rong Lingming's legitimate wife, he would have no complaints at all!
When the young boy’s tense face finally relaxed, Rong San lowered his head and asked him in a deep voice.
"Little buddy, what did you think of the uncles' performance just now!"
"Great! That's awesome!" The little guy is being honest.
"So, do you still want to see these uncles fight! Do you want to spar with them too! Do you want them to teach you! These uncles are all very skilled. They know more than just martial arts. Some are experts in sniper rifles, handguns, and other firearms. Some are experts in television, computers, electronics, and telecommunications. Some are experts in trains, cars, racing cars, and other vehicles. Some are experts in identity transformation, like disguises and facial changes, and so on. What do you think, little one Do you want to learn these things! If you want to learn, these uncles can teach you!"
Rong Sanbo spoke in a soft, coaxing tone. What he proposed was incredibly tempting for many children. He was blatantly trying to lure the youngsters away right in front of Rong Ling and Lin Meng!
Lin Meng was a little anxious, afraid that the little guy would really agree. So she moved slightly, wanting to pull him over and give him a hint. But Rong Ling took a step ahead of her, his big hand clasped hers, squeezing it gently before letting go.
This is a hint to her not to act rashly!
Lin Meng bit her lip, stealing a glance at Rong Lingying's handsome profile. She could only suppress the turmoil in her heart. She should trust this man! A man like this wouldn't harm his son!
The little guy tilted his head and thought for a long time before frowning and replying.
"I want to learn! But Grandpa--" He looked worried. "To learn so much, wouldn't Youyou have to pay a lot and lots and lots of tuition Youyou is afraid she can't afford it!"
Rong Sanbo never expected such a response from the little guy. He was overjoyed and laughed heartily.
"No payment, no payment, free, free!"
“That’s not good!” The little boy shook his head, straightened his neck, and said in a serious tone. “Mommy said that the hardest debt to repay in the world is a favor. So if you can avoid owing anyone favors, you definitely shouldn't owe them any. If Youyou doesn't pay tuition, then he'll owe grandpa a huge, huge, HUGE amount of favor, hmm—”
The little guy shook his head back and forth like a serious little scholar, mumbling. "This isn't good, this isn't good..."
This child!
Even Rong Sanbo didn't know what to say, and he gave Lin Meng a meaningful look!
It seems this child's mother has raised them well!
“Grandpa――” The little one dragged out his voice, sounding sweetly mischievous. “Yoyo wants to learn so many things, Grandpa! You should just set a price, then Yoyo can ask Mommy for tuition and go learn! Hehe, that way I won’t owe anyone favors!”
The little boy blinked his eyes, putting on an extremely cute expression, hoping that Rong Sanbo would lower the price a bit.
What he, the three-master wanted, was for the young fella to remember his feelings. Just like this, so cheaply he went along with the young fella's wishes, then this big leader of his, really wasted his time!
"Little guy, you have some skills, but those can't be learned with money. That means even if you have money, they might not teach you!"
The little boy pouted, looking pitiful. "So Grandpa doesn't want any money! He just wants Youyou to owe him a favor!"
A flicker of discomfort crossed Rong Sanbo's face!
That's why, sometimes children, because they are innocent and outspoken, say anything without filter, so their words can be quite hurtful!
Rong Sanbo coughed lightly, trying to conceal the embarrassment that had been mercilessly exposed by the little fellow!
Right now, there are outsiders here, like Yu Xu and Lin Meng. Rong Sanbo still wants to maintain some face!
The little boy continued to look at Rong Sanbo pitifully, pleadingly discussing, "Grandpa, can't we pay tuition and learn Can't we Really can't we Youyou really wants to learn, it's true!"
Those clear black eyes instantly transformed into adorable, twinkling star-like orbs. The brilliance was so intense that Rong Sanbo almost impulsively nodded in agreement. But in the end, this old fox still mercilessly shook his head!
The little boy blinked, then blinked again. His head swayed slightly, and then he suddenly said decisively, "I'm not going to learn anymore!"
Oh!
Rong Sanbo was stunned again because he clearly felt the little guy's excitement and intense longing!
"I hear that, little guy. He stretched out his hand and counted on his fingers one by one. "I'm very busy right now, no time. I have to do squats and run in the morning for martial arts training, then go to kindergarten. In the afternoon, I still have to go to my master's place for martial arts training. When I get home in the evening, I have to do homework and play games. It's very busy! Mommy says that children should have fun and sleep well, relax and be happy. She doesn't want me to be too tired, because that way I will grow up healthy. But Grandpa is so kind, he wants to teach me some more skills. I can't let down Grandpa's kindness, so I think I can still squeeze out some time in the evening to learn from my uncles. But..."
The little fellow looked at Rong Sanbo with innocent eyes, shook his head, and sighed deeply, expressing deep regret. It seemed to him that Rong Sanbo was entirely to blame for their current situation.
"Since grandpa said so, I won't learn anymore!" the little guy concluded.
Róng Sanbó suddenly became speechless.
This kid, he must have learned something from him after all. Or perhaps this kid is being humble and doesn't want to embarrass his old man, so he agreed. So pitiful, saying he's busy, saying he can squeeze out some time tonight --
This kid!
All three of them had the urge to go up and give the little guy a good thump on the head!
How did such a clever mind come to be!
That's not all, the little guy has more to say.
“Actually…” the little boy grinned, feeling very proud of himself. “Actually, when I grow up a bit more, I can learn all these things Grandpa’s been telling me too. My uncles are so amazing! Uncle Two, Uncle Three, Uncle Four, Uncle Five, Uncle Six, Uncle Seven…”
The little boy was counting on his fingers again. After finishing, he smiled and shook his five-fingered palm, showing it off proudly. "They're all very capable, each one can teach me a great skill! For example, my second uncle can teach me various languages, my fifth uncle can teach me facial disguises and illusions, my sixth uncle can teach me about firearms like sniper rifles and pistols, my seventh uncle can teach me about computers, and my fourth uncle... well..." He giggled. "He can teach me about vehicles!" Then he shouted excitedly, "Fourth Uncle!"
The little guy immediately perked up and called out to Yu Xu, who had been standing beside him the whole time. "You're right, aren't you! You'll teach Yuyu, right!"
Yu Xu cooperated perfectly, snapped his fingers, and said with delight, "Of course!"
The little guy turned his head and smiled at Rong Sanbo with narrowed eyes, looking like a little fox!
Uncle Rong originally wanted to entice the young boy to visit him frequently, so that over time, their bond as grandfather and grandson would deepen. Besides, he had invested heavily in raising this child, so the child should be grateful. But now, hearing the young boy's words, Uncle Rong couldn't help but feel anxious. In his view, his own advantageous resources suddenly lost their appeal and fundamental allure in front of the young boy. How could this be tolerated! He couldn't force the young boy to follow him by using power and telling him that following him would bring benefits. So, he could only resort to manipulating the young boy's interests. Now that things have come to this, he couldn't possibly lose everything, could he!
"Brat, you're so cunning even at this young age. When you grow up, who knows what you'll be capable of!"
Although Rong Sanbo's tone was reprimanding, his eyes were full of smiles!
"Looks like Grandpa needs to put some money where his mouth is to catch you! How about this: for every skill you learn, you pay a tuition fee of 1000 bucks. Now, will that get you learning"
"Wouldn't that make you, Grandpa, lose out!"
The little boy acted childishly, kicking his legs and twisting his body. He looked at Rong Sanbo with some embarrassment.
Rong Sanbo's face pulled, and he pretended to be displeased. "You finally realized! Well, at least you have a conscience for being able to say this!"
The little boy scratched his head, grinned mischievously, and excitedly rushed to pay his respects to Uncle Rong with a "Thank you!"
"Thank you, grandpa! But, I still have to ask Mommy!"
The little boy turned his head to look at Lin Meng.
"Mommy, can Youyou learn those skills too!"
As if, the one who truly held the power of decision was Lin Meng!
It seems like Rong Sanbo has been playing wits and brawn with the little ones here for ages, but it's all in vain. This last lesson still depends on Lin Meng's face!
Rong Sanbo's eyes twitched uncontrollably, and he suddenly felt a wave of aging!
These kids these days are something else!
As the saying goes, "the waves of the Yangtze River push forward the preceding waves, and the preceding waves die on the shore!"re was the sunshine! Where was the hope! She drifted aimlessly, why did she always feel like she couldn't grasp it!Rong Ling pursed his lips tightly, staring at the girl who was weeping so mournfully....
