 Chapter 25: I Want a Stepmother

September 16, 1997, Sunny

Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival.

As soon as I walked out of the school gate after class, I saw Comrade Ning Jianguo waiting for me at the school gate. We were going to visit Grandma in Jiande Alley together and have a reunion dinner with her.

Fan Xia also went home today. His father, Fan Jian, called a few days ago and asked Uncle Zhao to bring Fan Xia back for dinner.

Fan Jian's new wife is heavily pregnant and not very mobile, so his father booked a restaurant on Huanghe Road. Fan Xia said he'd rather have dinner at my place than go out to eat.

Of course, my dad's cooking is top-notch.

.........

"Dad!"

Ning Xiaobei and Fan Xia walked side by side, pushing the bicycle, and as soon as they walked out of the school gate, they saw Ning Jianguo.

He leaned his black bicycle against the flower bed at the school gate, leaning against it with his body slanted, sporting a trendy pair of sunglasses on his nose, and wearing a silver-white tracksuit. With long legs and a slender waist, he stood out among the group of parents waiting for their children.

In the language of internet celebrities in 2021, he was the epitome of an exemplary parent.

"Ning Xiaobei, is that your dad?"

Zhuang Li, pushing her pink women's bicycle, walked behind the two of them. Upon hearing Ning Xiaobei's words, her eyes lit up, and she hurriedly caught up with them.

"Yeah, that's my dad. What's up?"

Ning Xiaobei was startled by her sudden appearance and stopped in his tracks.

"Wow, I didn't expect..."

Zhuang Li tiptoed to look towards the school gate, then turned back to Ning Xiaobei, scrutinizing him from head to toe, making constant sounds of admiration.

"Zhuang Li, if you have something to say, say it! What are you doing?"

Fan Xia's expression darkened, and he spoke bluntly to her.

"Ning Xiaobei, your dad is so handsome... He's even more handsome than Hong Kong celebrities. Of course, he's still a bit inferior to Alan Tam, but still not bad."

Zhuang Li wasn't at all intimidated by Fan Xia's rude attitude and excitedly exclaimed, "Is he your dad? Why doesn't he look anything like you?"

Said with no ill intention, but taken to heart, Ning Xiaobei's face stiffened.

"I know, you must take after your mom. So delicate, like a little girl."

Zhuang Li was never stingy with compliments when it came to handsome guys. She had already evaluated each boy in their class with her female classmates during break time.

In terms of looks, Ning Xiaobei was definitely among the top in the class, currently ranking first on the handsome boys list.

Ning Xiaobei was like a handsome character from a Taiwanese romance novel, with fair skin, a gentle tone, and slightly curly hair that was enchanting.

Compared to his peers, Ning Xiaobei was mature and gentle. He was the neighbor brother in the works of Xiji, Yu Qing, and Zuo Qingwen. He was the moonlight described by the talented female writer Eileen Chang, the cinnabar mole, the moonlight in every girl's heart...
