"Then will those people who are taller than you bully you?"
"They won't have this opportunity, because Ah Chu and I are good friends." Li Jianqian looked at Li Sicheng and said word by word, "A lot of people in the class admire Ah Chu. I am also admired by many people."
"Well, so no."
Li Jianqian became even more unwilling and exclaimed, "Why?"
"I will only allow you to skip a grade when you can protect yourself."
When Li Jianqian heard this, he got anxious and shouted, "Dad, I can protect myself. No one in the class can beat me!"
"What's the big deal about bullying a child?" Li Sicheng looked at him with disdain.
"I'm a child too!" Li Jianqian said confidently.
"You treat yourself like a child, which proves that you are immature. You are not allowed to do that."
Li Jianqian was furious, "Dad, you are making excuses!"
"Do you know what it means to be strong-arm?"
When Li Jianqian heard this, he knew that Li Sicheng was setting a trap for him again.
He folded his hands angrily, turned away and stopped talking.
Li Jianyue leaned on the table with both hands, looked at her brother and father with big round eyes, and said, "Why can't I skip a grade, Dad? Didn't my brother skip a grade?"
"Well, it's because you just skipped a grade, so you're not allowed." Li Sicheng said calmly, "Everyone needs a process to grow up. You can't stand them being more childish than you, so you want to skip a grade."
Li Jianqian was stunned. These words were indeed true.
But he didn't say a word just now!
How did Dad know
Li Sicheng knew it from his expression and continued, "But have you ever thought about it? If you can't even stand them, how can you stand those fifth and sixth graders who are even more difficult to deal with than third graders?"
“Are they difficult?”
"The age between fifth and sixth grade and puberty, fifteen or sixteen, is the age when one is most likely to become self-inflated and be confused by one's own thoughts, thus doing things that are incomprehensible to others. You obviously haven't reached that stage yet, and you can't protect yourself."
Li Jianqian still didn't quite understand, but he could still hear a meaning between the lines - in short, he was doing it for his own good.
Li Jianyue still didn't understand, "Dad, does self-inflation mean you've gained weight?"
“… Well, you can understand it that way.”
"Oh..." Li Jianyue nodded, then smiled and said, "Our teacher said yesterday that I gained weight. In fact, she was saying that I was self-inflated, right?"
Su Qianci laughed out loud, while Li Sicheng remained calm and shook his head, "You should lose weight. From now on, you can only eat one chicken drumstick a day."
The smile on Li Jianyue's little face collapsed, and her mouth pouted immediately, "Dad..."
Li Sicheng didn't look at her and turned his head away.
Li Jianqian was not very happy and said sullenly, "Achu is going to skip a grade, I want to skip with him."
"No." Li Sicheng's voice was light but firm.
Li Jianyue realized that pouting was useless, so she stopped pouting and turned to look at her brother and asked, "Brother, is the brother Achu you mentioned very powerful?"
"Well, A-Chu said that when he grows up, he wants to be a soldier."
"Wow!" Li Jianyue's eyes lit up, "A soldier like my uncle?"
