Genius Daddy in the City

Ye Chen got a call after leaving home. “Hi, Sir Ye. I’m Yu Lei, the one who’s responsible for bringing you to Shennongjia. May I know if you need us to pick you up?” The man was polite when he spoke.

Ye Chen answered while smiling, “Where are you guys?”

“The entrance on the first floor of Lin City Airport!”

“Sure, I’ll be right there.”

After hanging up, Ye Chen did not go straight to the airport. Instead, he dropped by the Little Swan Kindergarten. He stood at the entrance and saw his daughter playing football with many friends in the field from far away.

Perhaps it had been a long time since she went to school, so the little girl was happy. She was indulging herself on the football field in her white shoes. Nobody could stop her from having fun.

The little girl suddenly stopped when she was less than 20 meters away from the goal. She swung her foot softly before kicking hard.

‘Will she make it?’ Ye Chen could not help but anticipate the outcome.

Bang!

A loud thud came. Not only did she not kick the football into the goal, but she also made the ball burst on impact. The place fell into dead silence. All of them stared blankly at the little girl as if they were shocked.

At that moment, a lady in sports attire walked over while blowing the whistle. She must be the P.E. teacher. The little girl panicked a little and she spoke like a kid who had done something wrong, “Ms. Wang, I didn’t mean to do that.”

Ms. Wang bent down and took a good look at the damaged football in her hand. She then patted the little girl’s hand and asked, “Ye Mengmeng, tell me, how hard did you kick this ball?”

“Just a little bit!” The little girl pouted, feeling wronged. She never thought that her light kick would have burst the ball.

A little bit…

The smile on Ms. Wang’s face froze. She then said, “It’s alright that it’s burst. I’m not blaming you. Give me a second.”

She returned to the equipment room after saying that, and soon she walked out while carrying a box. There were four to five footballs in it. She placed all of them in one line and said with a smile, “Now, kick a few times to show me. Kick softer, but be sure of yourself. I won’t blame you even if you break them.”

The little girl nodded hard when the teacher encouraged her. She then kicked the first ball. This time, she did not burst the ball. Instead, it shot quickly into the goal. The fatty who was guarding the goal failed to react in time…

Ms. Wang nodded lightly. She then went to the goal and said to the little girl far away, “Do it again!”

Bang!

The second ball flew out.

“Again!”

Ms. Wang caught the ball. If one were to look closer, they would notice that her hands that were holding the ball were shaking a little.

Bang!

The third ball shot out!

Ms. Wang retreated five steps back while holding the ball.

“Again!”

The fourth ball catapulted out.

Clang…

Ms. Wang’s glasses were broken.

“Are you okay, Ms. Wang?”

The kids ran over immediately while the little Mengmeng was crying, “I’m sorry, Ms. Wang. I-I didn’t mean to do that.”

“I-It’s okay!”

Ms. Wang removed her glasses, feeling happy instead of being mad. She was excited as if she had discovered a new land. “Ye Mengmeng, do you know that you’re a genius? Our Chinese national football team will depend on you. How outstanding are your parents to have such a cutie like you? I-I’m just too excited. Someone in Lin City will win the World Cup for us in the future!”

…

“That silly girl!”

Ye Chen saw and heard everything, including their conversation. He was in between tears and laughter. His silly daughter had consumed too many medicinal pills, thus it made sense that she could not control her strength.

Just like all mothers in the world, Su Yuhan hoped that her daughter would become a talent in terms of morality, intelligence, physical strength, and beauty. Therefore, apart from learning at school, she wanted Mengmeng to develop more interests and hobbies such as football and painting…

Ye Chen did not mind that as long as his daughter was happy. He shook his head and left quietly after making sure that the little girl was alright at school.

…

At the same time, on the first floor of Lin City Airport, a man and lady in blue hiking attire were looking around at the entrance. They seemed to be looking for someone.

The man had thick brows and big eyes. As he looked righteous with a tall and strong body, he gave out a refreshing vibe. Meanwhile, the lady next to him was much younger and pretty. She had a tiny waist and exuded a heroic spirit as she gazed around.

The lady took out a mirror and began putting on some lipstick as she said absent-mindedly, “Brother, what do you think the captain asked us here to do? Are we going to the Longmeng Convention?”

“How would I know?” The young man shrugged amusedly. “I’m not the worm in the captain’s tummy. All we’ve got to do is to listen to his orders, which is to follow Sir Ye. Let’s not ask any further.”

“Tsk!” The lady closed the mirror and said while pouting, “It’s been less than half a year since we joined. We’re still rookies. I haven’t experienced everything in the troop, but the captain has sent us out. It’s Yueyue’s birthday tomorrow. Now that we’re here, I can’t spend her birthday with her. I’ve got such bad luck!”

She was playing with her hair as she spoke, appearing to be frustrated.

“Stop your nonsense. Since the captain got us to do this, he must have his reasons.” The young man rolled his eyes at her irritatedly. Their mates were envious of them as they got to travel instead of training. The lady was the only one who was sulking about it.

She rolled her beautiful eyes. “Brother, who do you think this Sir Ye is to get us Fire Phoenix to be here? Apart from that, he’ll be leading us.”

“How would I know?” The young man was speechless.

The lady smiled. “How old do you think he is? How does he look like?” she said in a coquettish manner after realizing the young man looking annoyed. “Just guess, Brother. We’ve got nothing to do anyway!”

“I heard Sir Ye’s voice earlier. He should be about 40.” The young man gave it a thought as he was not sure. After all, Ye Chen’s voice was too matured. Given that the signal was bad, it was hard to tell.

“As for how he looks, he’s nowhere near as handsome as I am.”

“You? Please, I’m so sick of your face!” The lady pretended like she was going to vomit and she rolled her eyes at him. “I hope Sir Ye is handsome. If that’s the case, I might be able to lift my spirits along the way. Otherwise, I’ll really lose interest in this trip.”

The young man was speechless. Just when he was going to speak again, a burst of warm laughter came from behind. “I’m sorry to have made you guys wait!”
