"Peach~"
"Mm-hmm~"
The voice was just like a cat's, soft and fine, with an adorably affected lilt. Kitten Girl instantly turned toward whoever had called her name.
Chen Shu came over carrying a tiny cartoon backpack.
"I bought this for you."
"You bought it for me~"
"It's called a schoolbag."
"Schoolbag~"
"Come try it on. Let's see if it fits."
Chen Shu opened the little schoolbag's straps for her to slip into.
Oblivious to what it meant, Kitten Girl trotted over happily, turned her back to Chen Shu, and willingly slipped her hands into the straps one after the other.
An evil voice sounded behind her:
"Once you put on this schoolbag, you won't be a child anymore. You can't cling to even a scrap of your carefree childhood. If you get playful and don't do your homework, this little bag will tighten and tighten around your back until you're in agony..."
Peach turned a deaf ear. She bounced twice on the spot with the bag on, then looked back at him with wide eyes, finding him rather strange.
Just then, Qingqing came downstairs too.
Twenty minutes later.
With Qingqing's hand in one of his and Peach's in the other, Chen Shu arrived outside a pre-school education center on the edge of University City.
Under the Yi Nation's school system, Peach couldn't enter Children's School until the second half of this year. For now, her options were Kindergarten or a Pre-school Class. But Peach had lived as a Spirit Cat for more than ten years. Thanks to Chen Shu, Xiaoxiao, and Qingqing, she already had basic life knowledge and study habits. Kindergarten also seemed rather unsuitable for someone her age, so Chen Shu had enrolled her in a Pre-school Class.
Pre-school Class mainly taught the basics: phonetics, counting, simple characters
