Chapter 563: We’re Not the Same
The next day, a misty drizzle fell from the sky, making the already cold weather even colder.
Over at the kindergarten, Mo Jingchun had already given orders that the air conditioning should not exceed 24°.
It wasn’t that Mo Jingchun was concerned about a little bit of electricity cost.
Previously, he hadn’t considered that kindergarten kids are naturally active.
When there’s too much of a temperature difference between indoors and outdoors, it’s easy for the kids to get sick.
Early in the morning, Candy was already full of energy.
But she still couldn’t escape that bowl of medicine in the end.
Gazing at the empty bowl with not a drop left, Mo Jingchun smiled and said:
"Not bad, it seems fine for now."
"When you come back from school today, let White check you. If everything’s fine, you won’t need to take the medicine."
Candy handed the empty bowl to her brother, licked her lips, and smacked her little lips.
The next second—
"Burp~"
Candy, having burped, patted her small tummy, blinked at her brother who was watching her, and giggled.
On the way to send Candy to kindergarten, Mo Jingchun carefully advised:
"If you feel sleepy, go to bed and sleep."
"It’s a good thing White discovered it early; otherwise, if you got a high fever, it wouldn’t matter whether you wanted an injection or not."
"Mm-hmm~ Guoguo understands."
Reaching the kindergarten entrance, Mo Jingchun adjusted the hat on Candy’s head, pinching the two bunny ears.
"Off you go, if the teacher asks, just say you’re fine."
"And if they ask further, just say I’m not mad."
"Got it~"
"Brother, see you in the afternoon."
Mo Jingchun waved his hand, watching Candy run into the kindergarten.
Seeing Candy run into the classroom, Mo Jingchun then called on Xia Xiaomin and the rest to head to the new sports stadium in the county.
It wasn’t that Xu Pengfei didn’t consider holding the press conference out of town; mainly, holding it in the county could stimulate a lot of spending.
Plus, the gymnasium venue was free. After comprehensive consideration, Xu Pengfei decided to hold the conference in this small county.
Though called a small county, with development over the past few years, it’s vaguely heading towards county upgrading to city status.
The new gymnasium wasn’t too far, also part of the new development zone, less than three kilometers in a straight line from Candy Science and Technology Park.
Driving there took about ten minutes, even considering traffic lights.
As Mo Jingchun guessed, a weary-looking Teacher Li couldn’t wait to inquire upon seeing Candy hop into the classroom.
After a long while, Teacher Li breathed a sigh of relief.
Thankfully, nothing major happened, and all the kids who caught a cold were discovered in time, avoiding any serious issues.
Clenching her teeth, Teacher Li thought of the principal’s ghastly face from yesterday and decided to talk to him.
Learning from experience, Teacher Li also saw the importance of White.
If White could regularly check the kids’ health, risks could be minimized.
She decided to ask the principal to request a White from the boss!
Ten minutes later, in the principal’s office.
The principal, cradling a thermos cup and wearing a furry hat, listened to Teacher Li’s suggestion with furrowed brows.
Teacher Li’s proposal was good, but the cost of White was well-known within the company.
The lowest-grade White starts at 2.19 million.
The most important point: Candy has a personal White!
In such circumstances, would the boss really agree if he requested one?
He was uncertain.
But recalling yesterday’s situation, he shivered.
Fortunately, the parents of these children were all well-educated and didn’t make a big fuss.
After listening to the explanation, they merely expressed dissatisfaction without pursuing accountability.
He knew it was mainly because the parents heard one particular saying.
The boss didn’t say anything.
Taking a deep breath, "Alright, I got it. I’ll try to request it!"
"Whether it’s approved depends on what the boss thinks."
——————
Inside the gymnasium, Mo Jingchun received the principal’s request email as soon as he sat down.
Reading through the email, Mo Jingchun slapped his forehead.
Look at this, such a simple thing, how hadn’t he thought of it?
The staff below felt White’s high price. But who was Mo Jingchun?
He was the creator of White!
Only he knew that White’s cost wasn’t as high as everyone imagined.
After approving it, Mo Jingchun, wearing a Bluetooth headset, directly said:
"Zero, send Laboratory’s No. 1 White to Candy Technology Kindergarten for stationing."
"Got it! Boss."
Almost simultaneously, in the busy laboratory, a White suddenly stopped, laid its tools on the ground.
The next moment, White walked straight towards the elevator.
The armed police in the lobby on the first floor of the laboratory building took one look at the White coming down alone without showing any surprise.
This wasn’t the first time.
The last time, a White came down carrying a big bucket.
When the principal saw White reporting to him, he was completely bewildered.
Hadn’t it been less than ten minutes since he received the boss’s approval? White had already arrived directly.
This efficiency, truly impeccable.
He worried whether the boss would approve in vain.
After class, the children quickly noticed the big new presence in the kindergarten.
It was White!
Candy, playing outside the classroom after class, was full of surprise when she saw White—she thought it was her White.
But... it wasn’t!
All Whites looked exactly the same, really hard to tell apart~
Seeing White surrounded by a group of kids, Candy’s little dark eyes darted around, a plan forming in her mind.
All Whites look the same, so she’d put a big sticker on her White.
Hehe, that way they can be differentiated.
Unlike the other kids, Wang Haoran didn’t join to watch.
Even though he was curious, he obediently stayed by the big sister’s side.
"You want one too?"
Wang Haoran paused, furrowing his brows slightly.
He nodded, then shook his head.
"Mom says White is too expensive."
Surprised, Candy asked, "Too expensive?"
"Very expensive! One White could buy a house, and a good one at that."
"Do you want one?" Candy asked, looking up at the sky.
Beside her, Wang Haoran understood, but he helplessly shrugged.
Mom was mom, and she’d anticipated this could happen.
When White first came out, she’d already warned him.
"Mom says we can’t have one."
Scratching her head, Candy curiously asked, "Are you afraid of your mom? Like I’m afraid of my brother."
Seemingly recalling something, Wang Haoran gave a sheepish smile.
"My mom really hits me."
"Every time, I have to use wisdom and courage to escape a beating."
"Unlike Big Sister’s brother, who only scares Big Sister."
With Young Brother Ting’s words, Candy thought for a moment, and it seemed true.
Every time her brother hit her, it didn’t hurt.
It was just when she was punished to stand that it was uncomfortable; her back would be sore and painful from standing.
Moving a bit would earn a glare from her brother.
