Moving into a New Home, New Ability!

"Mengyao, how is Lin Chen doing now?"

Shen Qing asked.

Xu Mengyao sighed. "He was laid off last month. He's living in an Urban Village now, renting a one-bedroom apartment that's less than forty square meters."

"If Xiaoqian really didn't miss her father so much, I truly wouldn't want to send her to Lin Chen's place to suffer."

Shen Qing said, "Lin Chen's circumstances are too poor. You should still give him some money. No matter how hard things are, Qian Qian shouldn't have to suffer."

"I left him sixty thousand yuan."

"I told him it was three months' living expenses."

Xu Mengyao said softly, "Do you think I gave him too little? But I'm afraid that if I give him too much, Lin Chen will start having other ideas because he's Xiaoqian's father."

Shen Qing said, "You're afraid he'll pester you endlessly, right? Twenty thousand a month—ten thousand for rent and ten thousand for food and expenses—should let them live quite well."

"I think that amount is enough."

"Whether he can take good care of Qian Qian depends on whether he puts his heart into it."

Xu Mengyao nodded slightly.

"We'll see how things go after a while. Not to mention three months, sixty thousand yuan can at least ensure they live well for one month."

With that, Xu Mengyao stood up.

"I'm not drinking anymore. I have to fly to the United States tomorrow. My mother needs surgery, and this operation is quite important."

Shen Qing said, "Auntie is blessed and will definitely be fine. Don't worry too much about Qian Qian. Lin Chen is Qian Qian's father after all, so he shouldn't mistreat her."

"Stay with Auntie for a few days without worry."

Xu Mengyao nodded.

Soon, she got into a Bentley and left.

A Female Bodyguard accompanied her, and the driver was also a woman—a professional bodyguard Xu Mengyao had hired as well.

"What a pity about Mengyao."

"Ah."

Shen Qing sighed inwardly.

Xu Mengyao came from a good family and was exceptionally beautiful. If not for what had happened three years ago, she would have married very well.

Fortunately, Xu Mengyao had been drugged three years ago, and Lin Chen had ultimately been the one to benefit rather than the person who had drugged her. Otherwise, it would definitely have become a nightmare that haunted her for the rest of her life.

"If only Lin Chen were more outstanding."

"Then Mengyao really might have ended up with him, but he's so ordinary. The gap between him and Mengyao is simply too great."

Shen Qing murmured to herself.

Xu Mengyao was not only wealthy; she herself was also outstanding. Lin Chen had been quite ordinary in college, and he was the same after graduation.

Lin Chen's only advantage was that he was fairly handsome.

"I'll go check on them again in a few days."

"It would be understandable if he didn't take good care of her during the first three or four days."

Shen Qing thought to herself.

In the middle of the night, Lin Xiaoqian woke up.

Her Little Hands nudged the sleeping Lin Chen. "Daddy, Daddy."

"Xiaoqian, what's wrong?"

Lin Chen woke up quickly.

"Daddy, I need to pee. A Good Baby can't Wet the Bed."

Lin Chen hurriedly carried Lin Xiaoqian to the bathroom. She peed as soon as he squatted down; if they had been any later, she would have wet the bed.

"Xiaoqian, do you usually wear diapers to sleep at night?"

Lin Chen asked as he carried Lin Xiaoqian back to bed.

Lin Xiaoqian said cutely, "Daddy, I don't wear diapers. I'm two years old, not a one-year-old baby anymore."

Lin Chen smiled.

"Xiaoqian is so good."

"Go back to sleep."

When Lin Chen woke again, it was already daylight.

Lin Xiaoqian had woken up first. She had not disturbed Lin Chen, and when she saw him awake, she giggled. "Daddy, I woke up first. Mommy said that children who sleep early and wake early are good babies."

Lin Chen smiled. "Of course Xiaoqian is a Good Baby."

Lin Xiaoqian burrowed into Lin Chen's arms. "Daddy, I want to see you when I wake up, and I want to see Mommy too."

"That would make me so happy."

Lin Chen muttered inwardly that he wanted to wake up and see Xu Mengyao too.

"Xiaoqian, Mommy is too busy."

Lin Chen said, gently stroking Lin Xiaoqian's Little Head.

Lin Xiaoqian said wistfully, "Daddy, I miss Mommy."

"I want to call Mommy."

Lin Chen sat up. "Xiaoqian, you've only been at Daddy's place for one day. If Daddy calls now, Mommy will think Daddy can't take good care of Xiaoqian."

"Let's get up and eat breakfast, then move into our new home, okay?"

Lin Xiaoqian's eyes lit up.

"Okay! We're moving into a new home!"

Lin Chen breathed a sigh of relief. Luckily, children were easy to coax.

Xu Mengyao had told him not to call unless there was something important.

Soon, the two of them got up.

"Daddy, I don't have a toothbrush."

"Mommy said that if I don't brush my teeth, little bugs will bite them."

Lin Xiaoqian said in her babyish voice.

Lin Chen felt a little embarrassed. There was a bath towel in Lin Xiaoqian's suitcase, but no toothbrush, and he had not bought one yesterday either.

It was his first time being a father, and he had no experience at all.

"Xiaoqian, Daddy will carry you out to buy one."

There was a small supermarket nearby, and Lin Chen quickly bought one.

"Xiaoqian, how about noodles for breakfast?"

Lin Chen asked.

"Daddy, are there meat pieces in the noodles?"

"Yes, there have to be."

After breakfast, Lin Chen packed up and moved.

He did not have many belongings, and there were some things he did not plan to keep. Once the suitcase was packed, they could move everything with a taxi.

A little after nine, Lin Chen arrived at their new home.

Once they bought some more things, they could settle into the new place.

"Xiaoqian, let's go to a big supermarket."

"We'll buy more vegetables, and I'll make you something delicious for lunch."

Ziyuan Community had commercial facilities, including a supermarket. Lin Chen took Lin Xiaoqian there and bought quite a lot of things.

"Daddy, I want to draw."

"I want to draw Daddy and Mommy, and the baby too."

Lin Xiaoqian said happily, hugging the newly bought crayons.

"Okay."

Lin Chen prepared the crayons and Drawing Paper for Lin Xiaoqian. But she could not draw well, so he held her Little Hands and taught her.

Five Minutes passed.

"Host, your drawing skills have begun to improve. After accumulating ten hours, your drawing skills can advance to the Master level."

"After twenty hours, they can advance to the Grandmaster level."

The system's voice sounded In Her Mind.

A smile appeared on Lin Chen's lips. By teaching his daughter to draw, his drawing skills could actually reach the Master level after ten hours.

The system was really reliable.

At this rate, he would definitely become an All-Around Daddy.

A great deal of drawing experience continuously poured into Lin Chen's mind. With the system's help, he rapidly digested and absorbed it.

"Daddy, you're amazing."

"Daddy, can you teach me to draw?"

Lin Xiaoqian looked at Lin Chen with a face full of admiration.

Lin Chen kissed Lin Xiaoqian. "Of course. Besides drawing, is there anything else you want Daddy to teach you?"

Lin Xiaoqian counted on her fingers. "I want Daddy to teach me drawing, singing, swimming, and also, also... I want Daddy to teach me to play soccer. Yangyang has a big soccer ball."

"He said I can't play, so he won't play with me."

Lin Chen found it amusing.

Over Two Years Old and playing soccer?

Still, since his daughter liked it, he had to support her.

If he just taught her casually, he would probably become a soccer star himself.

"Qian Qian, Daddy can teach you all that. But is there anything you know how to do? Can you teach Daddy too?"

Lin Chen asked with a smile.

Lin Xiaoqian tilted her head and thought. After quite a while, she blurted out a few words of English. "Daddy, I can speak some English. Can I teach you English?"

"Sure."

"Then it's settled!"

Lin Chen said with a smile.

Lin Xiaoqian said solemnly, "Daddy, put your Little Hands properly. Class is starting. This is how you say good morning—"

Lin Xiaoqian taught with surprising seriousness.

Five Minutes passed.

The system's voice sounded In Her Mind: "Host, after studying for three hours, you will become proficient in English."

"After that, for every three hours you teach Lin Xiaoqian a foreign language, you will become proficient in another foreign language, with no upper limit on the number."
