Chapter 232 The Best Aunt in the World!
Perhaps in order to completely give up on him, Zhou Yufan, such a proud person, actually did not refuse her suggestion.
Fang Li felt a pang of sadness in her heart.
She comforted him a few more times, just then Ji Tiantian brought Huang Yu over.
Distracted by work, Fang Li soon saw Zhou Yufan regain his composure, whether he was too good at pretending or had temporarily forgotten.
He acted as if nothing was wrong, and even had a slight smile on his lips when he spoke to Huang Yu.
After finalizing that Huang Yu would be joining the team, the two discussed and dealt with the remaining work for a while, and soon it was time to get off work.
When it was time to leave work, Zhou Yufan actually suggested going out to eat together. Seeing that he seemed to have really forgotten, Fang Li naturally didn't bring it up again.
Thinking about how to inquire about Jingsen's situation for him, he casually made up an excuse to refuse.
Yu Tian hadn't returned from Haicheng yet, but his driver was already waiting for him at the company.
Fang Li got into the car, glanced at the time, thought for a moment, and instructed the driver, "Go to the High School Affiliated to Peking University."
"Is Madam planning to pick up Miss Cousin?"
"Okay, tell the driver who's supposed to pick up Yang Miao that he doesn't need to go."
"it is good."
The car slowly drove towards the High School Affiliated to Peking University.
Kyoto University High School is located in the alley behind Kyoto University, just one block away.
It's said that if a child gets into Kyoto University High School, it means they've already stepped into the gates of Kyoto University. Therefore, although the area around Kyoto University High School is an old city, housing prices continue to skyrocket every year.
Fang Li arrived at just six o'clock.
The high school had just let out for the day, and the security guard was opening the main gate when the students came noisily down from the teaching building, not even reaching the school gate yet.
Seeing that more and more cars were blocking the way, Fang Li told the driver to drive to the next intersection and wait, then got out of the car with her bag.
Today, Fang Li wore a pink and white striped shirt with a long white A-line skirt and a matching belt around her waist. The shirt sleeves were rolled up halfway and gathered on her forearms. Her outfit was both professional and feminine.
Parents whose children can get into the affiliated high school are at least in their late thirties or nearly forty.
In a group of somewhat mature parents, Fang Li stood out like a lotus flower just emerging from the water, graceful and elegant, constantly attracting the attention of passersby.
Fang Li could feel the gazes, some subtle and some overt, but she pretended not to notice and just stood there with a calm expression.
Soon, the student tide slowly advanced towards the school gate.
Most of the students were wearing the same school uniform. Looking at that huge group of heads, Fang Li felt that picking up her child from school was an extremely demanding task that required sharp eyesight.
With no experience, she could only barely distinguish between men and women, making it almost impossible for her to find Yang Miao inside.
Fortunately, Fang Li was eye-catching enough in the crowd.
As many students turned their gazes toward her, Yang Miao, who had come out with his classmates, spotted her at a glance.
"Auntie!"
Upon hearing the sound, Fang Li quickly looked in the direction of the sound.
This time, she quickly spotted a figure running towards her in the bustling crowd.
Yang Miao was very happy and ran up to her, giving her a big hug.
"Why did you come to pick me up! Where's the driver?"
Fang Li was a little flattered. When she let go of her, she couldn't help but smile and say, "I got off work early. I saw that you were almost out of school, so I came over on my way to save the family driver from having to make another trip."
"Oh, I see. So, can you pick me up whenever you're going that way?"
Yang Miao blinked her round eyes at her.
For some reason, Fang Li suddenly imagined a smaller, cuter face, soft and sweet, pulling her and acting coquettishly.
"Aunt?"
"what?"
Yang Miao chuckled, "What are you thinking about? I'm asking if you can come pick me up every day from now on?"
Fang Li smiled, put her arm around her shoulder, and said as they walked, "Okay, as long as I get off work early, I'll come pick you up."
"It's a deal then, no backing out!"
"No regrets."
"Yay!" Yang Miao's face lit up with joy. "Finally, it's not the driver who picks me up anymore! You know, every time the driver comes to pick me up, my classmates think Uncle Zhang is my dad!"
Fang Li smiled and said, "What's wrong with Uncle Zhang? He's only in his fifties. He looks young and energetic."
"But he's not handsome!"
"Picking you up from school isn't a beauty pageant, why does it have to be handsome?" Fang Li really doesn't understand the minds of these kids nowadays.
Yang Miao curled her lips and said, "That's what you think. Didn't you see the other parents? They're all dressed in gold and silver, as if they wanted to make the school gate look like a Paris catwalk. And the cars, today your family drives a BMW, tomorrow his family drives a Mercedes, and the day after tomorrow they're driving a Rolls-Royce. It's a complete display of wealth."
Fang Li couldn't help but laugh: "It's not as exaggerated as you say. After school, it's chaotic, and finding the kids is a struggle enough. How can you have time to flaunt your wealth?"
“You don’t understand.” Yang Miao pointed his finger with feigned profundity. “The key to showing off wealth is to do it discreetly. It’s fine to show off your wealth discreetly when picking up your child. In today’s society, classmates’ parents are a huge network of connections. No one will miss this opportunity.”
"Where did you learn all this from? It even sounds somewhat reasonable."
Yang Miao rolled her eyes at her. "What do you mean 'a little'? This is clearly the truth. Now you know why I never let my uncle pick me up, right?"
Fang Li looked at her with a leisurely air.
She said with the composure of an adult, "If those people knew that my uncle was the famous president of the Han Group in Beijing, do you believe that my desk drawer would be piled up to the roof of the classroom by the gifts my classmates gave me?"
"Pfft!" Fang Li couldn't help but laugh out loud. "I believe you when you say that."
"Sigh, that's why school is a microcosm of society. Don't underestimate us students when it comes to our experience in society, you adults. We see things very clearly."
"Yes, yes, you're insightful. I didn't underestimate you."
As the two chatted and walked, they unknowingly found themselves in a congested area, where they could see the driver's car parked on the side of the road with its hazard lights flashing in the distance.
"As your aunt, I haven't given you anything yet. This is the first time I've come to pick you up today. Is there anything you want? Just say it, and your aunt will be more than happy to oblige!"
"Really?!" Yang Miao's eyes lit up.
Fang Li chuckled: "Of course it's true, I never lie."
"Then I'll really have to ask for the moon!"
"Okay, as long as you tell me."
Yang Miao jumped up and down happily, then hung around her neck and gave her a quick kiss on the cheek.
"Auntie! You are absolutely amazing! I, Yang Miao, hereby solemnly declare that you are the best auntie in the world! Without a doubt!"
Like a best friend, she wrapped her arms around Fang Li's neck and declared, "Don't worry, if my uncle ever dares to be unfaithful to you, I'll be the first to object!"
