Zhan Xi's mortal enemy Ling Qi also had a gloomy face, but after seeing Zhan Xi's current expression, his expression softened.
"This cub has just learned to speak. Is he scolding me on purpose?" he asked a little abruptly.
Hua Ya's mouth twitched and she nodded.
Ling Qi came to see her for something just now, and they talked about Zhan Xi. After seeing the cub that Zhan Xi brought back, Ling Qi said a few words, and they were not very nice.
I don’t know if it was because he heard Zhan Xi’s name, or if he could really tell whether an adult’s tone was good or bad, the little cub who was playing with toys tilted his face up and rolled to Ling Qi in a baby voice.
Zhan Xi naturally caught Ling Qi's question. If it were in the past, he would have cursed him.
But now—
He looked down at the little cub holding a toy in his arms and swallowed back the curse words.
"Hua Ya, I'll take the cub back first."
Zhan Xi didn't want to lose his composure in front of his mortal enemy, so he forced himself to remain calm, said something to Hua Ya, and took the baby back.
He walked in a hurry. After a few steps, Hua Ya heard the childish "get out" and Zhan Xi's desperate words: "Stop talking, forget this word! Let's learn it again!"
It saved his life. The first word his kid learned was actually his favorite spoken language!
Zhan Xi hurriedly took the baby back.
Jian Ning, who was sitting steadily in his arms, had no idea that the first word she had learned directly broke Zhan Xi's mentality.
He hugged Zhan Xi's head. Since he hadn't seen Zhan Xi for a long time, he kept sticking to Zhan Xi. His tender little face was so soft that it made people's hearts soften.
Behind.
Ling Qi looked at the disappearing figure, was silent for a while, and then said: "Does Zhan Xi like this cub so much? He is so big and strong, can he take good care of a cub?"
Hua Ya pinched her forehead and explained, "If it weren't for his insistence, this cub wouldn't be here until now."
The people on their desolate planet don't have much kindness.
Soft and cute cubs are certainly adorable, but if they really have to be handed over to someone to raise, I'm afraid few people would be willing to take on this responsibility.
The cubs are delicate and difficult to raise. They can be coaxed occasionally, but they simply cannot be taken care of carefully day and night.
When Zhan Xi first met the cub, he bullied it. But who would have thought that the person who bullied the cub at the beginning would now be the one raising the cub in a clumsy and responsible way.
I estimated that about ten minutes had passed.
Zhan Xi opened the door and walked in, while teaching Jian Ning, who was yawning in his arms, "Baby, call daddy."
After bringing the cub back, Zhan Rao checked the cub's identity. After searching for a long time, he only found the cub's supplies in the room of one of the crew members.
This crew member had no relatives, a simple resume, and he had died at the hands of the poisonous spider.
Zhan Rao speculated that the cub should be a relative of the crew member, but the crew member was dead. If the cub was sent back, it would only end up in an orphanage.
Zhan Xi disagreed to send the cub to an orphanage.
He had already told Zhan Rao privately: "Instead of living in an orphanage, it's better for you to be raised by me. I have no experience as a father, but I will learn how to be a competent father."
"Boss, he will be my cub from now on."
Zhan Rao did not raise any objection to his decision, nor did he pour any cold water on it.
The environment of the desert planet is harsh, and it is difficult for even adults to survive here, let alone raise cubs. But Zhan Xi said he wanted to raise them, and Zhan Rao knew that he could do it.
in the room.
Jian Ning was put on the bed, leaning lazily on the pillow behind him. His beautiful eyes were half open, and after yawning a few times, his eyelashes were wet, as if wet by dew.
"Hurry up, call daddy."
Zhan Xi was still urging.
Jian Ning's little head nodded slowly, the soft flesh on his cheeks drooping. Amid Zhan Xi's urging him to go to sleep, he finally spoke reluctantly: "Dandan."
Zhan Xi: “…”
Zhan Xi took a deep breath and patiently corrected: "It's Daddy, not Dandan."
Although both are babyish reduplicated words, "baba" is a good word, but "dandan" is not. This "dandan" must be the "get out" word!
Zhan Xi's teaching work came to a standstill again, and he realized that his hard-line teaching was not working and he had to find a new teaching method.
The learning machine placed on the bedside table caught his eye at the right time.
Zhan Xi took the learning machine he had just finished studying and waved it in front of Jian Ning: "Baby, look at this."
Jane Ning continued to nap without interest.
Zhan Xi calmly fiddled with the learning machine a few times and waved a classroom cover in front of the lazy boy.
Next second.
Jane Ning's eyes lit up when she was dozing off, and she stretched out her chubby little hand: "Ah!"
want!
Zhan Xi didn't like the little prince of the empire, but he had no choice because his son was very interested in him. In order to cultivate his son's enthusiasm for class, he pinched his nose and chose this course that was said to be an elective for the little prince.
He had searched the Star Network in advance and found out that the little prince had a special course teacher in the palace and did not often use a learning machine to attend classes.
This learning machine also has lessons inside, but it uses the little prince as a gimmick and an advertisement.
Zhan Xi hoped that the little prince would not be in class, so that his child would not run into this bad-tempered child. His child was delicate and could not come into contact with a bad-tempered child, or he would be bullied.
"Wait, if you want a learning machine, you have to speak."
Zhan Xi was shaking the learning machine with the little prince on it, and he was fishing for the cub calmly: "Call daddy, if you don't call me, you can't play."
Jian Ning: “!”
Jian Ning looked at the learning machine dangling in front of him, and his chubby hands tried desperately to grab it. He was so anxious, but his chubby hands just couldn't grab it.
After grabbing a few more times, the little fat hand slowed down obviously.
"tired?"
Zhan Xi wanted to say something else, but before he could open his mouth, the cub in front of him suddenly pounced on him and landed precisely in his arms.
"ah!"
Jian Ning hugged Zhan Xi's arm, and after holding him firmly, he stood up with his trembling body and began to kiss Zhan Xi on the cheek.
After kissing several times, Jane Ning's face was pricked by the beard, so she grabbed the beard reflexively.
Zhan Xi: “Hiss—”
Zhan Xi immediately took a breath of cold air.
He held onto Jian Ning's tightly clenched fist, and all his momentum was gone. At this moment, he could only coax the child humbly: "My dear, let go, let go of your hand."
At this stage, young cubs love to grab things, especially hair and beards.
Zhan Xi has to personally coax Jian Ning to sleep at night. Although he looks like a good little boy, he doesn’t sleep well at night and likes to sleep while holding onto something.
Zhan Xi often woke up in the middle of the night and found the little cub who had climbed onto his head at some point, with his chubby hands clutching his hair and snoring in his sleep.
Jian Ning was well taken care of. After arriving on the deserted planet, he not only did not lose weight, but gained several pounds. Whether he was grasping his hair or beard, his chubby hands seemed to be using all their strength to suck milk.
"ah!"
Jian Ning let go of his hand to pick up the learning machine, and happily babbled to Zhan Xi. He lowered his head and looked at the little prince on the screen, his eyes curved into beautiful crescents.
Zhan Xi's beard escaped the disaster temporarily, but when he touched his beard, he began to think about whether he should shave it clean.
The main reason he grew a beard was to cover his face a little, but it was inconvenient to grow such a long beard when he was with his children.
Zhan Xi didn't think for too long, his attention was all following Jian Ning.
Seeing his kid poking at the learning machine so seriously, Zhan Xi leaned over and clicked a button. When the button was turned on, the kid's capture function was turned on.
Every user must undergo identity authentication before they can use the functions of the learning machine normally.
Jian Ning is currently still an illegal resident. It’s not that Zhan Xi doesn’t want to register him, but that all the people on the desolate planet are illegal resident.
Fortunately, Zhan Xi had some means, and someone did something to allow Jian Ning to log in temporarily. But he couldn't say whether he would be discovered or not.
soon.
Jane Ning's holographic image was recorded.
Outside the screen, Jian Ning closed his eyes, as if he was asleep. Zhan Xi took the quilt, covered him carefully, and bent down to kiss his little face.
"Just study hard."
Zhan Xi whispered, he got up and went outside to buy a razor.
Although Jian Ning seemed to be asleep, he was actually "awake" at this moment. He opened his eyes wide and looked at everything in front of him curiously.
He was in a new crib, and beside his crib there were other cribs. All the cribs had names written on them, and the teacher was reading them out now.
After checking the list, the young female teacher Della started the class with a smile.
The content of her class was to teach the cubs how to speak, which Zhan Xi had been thinking about. There were several cubs attending the class together, some of them were obedient, while others were crying.
Jane Ning didn't cry.
He just looked at the teacher with a blank face, not understanding why Zhan Xi was suddenly gone. Not only Zhan Xi was gone, but also the little prince he loved to watch the most was gone.
Della was obviously very experienced in dealing with various situations involving cubs.
After a while, the crying baby was coaxed into silence, and the bully baby from next door who was trying to catch Jane Ning was also stopped. No matter how many accidents happened, Teacher Della seemed to be able to control the situation.
Her voice is very gentle, and the way she induces the kids to speak is also very interesting.
I don’t know how long the class lasted.
The other kids started to speak out one after another. Although their words were not clear enough, at least they could speak.
"automobile."
The little bully held the toy car and shouted to the teacher.
The crybaby cub sat on the bed, rubbed his eyes, and choked out, "Mommy."
Among all the kids, only the last stubborn kid refused to speak. The stubborn kid had no toys in his hands and no blanket on his bed.
He had a chubby face and was pulling at his own socks.
Teacher Della tutored him individually and coaxed him, "How about we call daddy? Ningning, follow the teacher and call daddy."
Della taught with great patience and skill.
The little bully in the next bed had heard it, but the kid who was being counseled still kept his lips tightly pursed and refused to shout.
Della guessed that he was too timid and it was his first time in a holographic classroom, so he was not used to it. For such a cub, we need to take it slow.
"Be good, don't be nervous, we will learn slowly."
Zhan Xi enrolled his child in a group class, not a one-on-one class, so the teacher couldn't focus all his attention on just him.
After Teacher Della’s class lasted for a while, she allowed them to take a break. This break meant the end of the class and they could “wake up” in reality.
Of course, if you don’t want to go back to rest, you can continue to stay here. This learning machine has developed many places suitable for cubs to move around.
Because it is for the babies' use, it is safe for them to study or play here.
Teacher Della pointed Jane in a direction and told him he could go there and play. There were a lot of toys there and he could play with whatever he wanted.
Jane Ning didn't know whether she understood what was said or simply wanted to avoid this teacher.
He was like the hard-working little tortoise in the tortoise and the hare race, crawling forward quickly, and before long he was out of Della's sight.
Della smiled.
She thought this Ning cub was so cute.
It seems that Ningzai's parents have not fully understood the settings and functions of the learning machine. In order to protect the privacy of their children, their parents will modify their appearance when they enter.
But this Ning cub's image didn't change at all.
Among all the user cubs, the only cub whose image has not been modified, besides Ning cub, is Jingui cub who has a bad temper.
The days go by.
Della looked at Ningzai, who ranked last in the language class, and the tenderness on her face turned into helplessness. She walked over and asked as usual: "Ningzai, how about we learn to say a word today?"
Ningzai, who was unmoved, shook his head slowly.
not good.
The kid doesn't learn.
Della really couldn't understand why the cub just wouldn't learn. Although she liked this pretty curly-haired cub who looked like a doll, if the teaching progress could not go on any further, she could only contact the parents to withdraw the class.
It was afternoon.
Ningzai, who was not in class, was crawling around in the game scene. He was the only cub here at the moment and he liked staying here.
Various virtual toys are placed in front of you.
Ningzai crawled towards the largest cub car. As soon as he got there and opened the door, he found that there was already a cub sitting inside.
The kid sitting inside was much bigger than him.
This cub exudes the aura of "I'm not someone you can mess with" all over its body. Although it will not be hurt in the virtual scene, this cold-blooded cub still has a small scar on the right cheek.
Ningzi looked at him, the expression on his little face was completely stunned.
"stay away from me."
The cub sitting in the car slammed the door shut. He didn't want to bother with this cub that was obviously not weaned yet.
Outside the car door.
Ningzai reacted, raised his little fist and started knocking on the door.
