Chapter 89

After finishing breakfast and practicing a set of boxing moves, Qiping checked the time; it was almost nine o'clock. Kate and her students should be arriving soon.

The kindergarten children were about to visit the forest farm, which was a big event. American schools paid great attention to such matters, and extracurricular activities were quite frequent. This time, it wasn't just a fall outing; Kate also hoped to help the children understand the importance of protecting nature, protecting small animals, and living in harmony with nature.

Qiping didn't really care about these things; as long as Kate was happy, it was fine. After all, there were only about ten rambunctious kids, typical little boys and girls. American kindergartens also had small class sizes, with only about ten children per class. Once the number of children increased, it would be difficult for the teachers to manage, as Kate had mentioned, these were strict rules.

The four large and powerful German Shepherds, Dong, Nan, Xi, and Bei, were obediently lying at the door; they didn't go out to play today. They had just had a bath last night, and with their fluffy fur, they looked both fierce and adorable.

The little ball of meat, Winnie, was happily crawling around the dogs, always playing joyfully. He didn't care that the older kids were annoyed by his constant pestering. Although he was pushed away by Nan again, Winnie rolled on the ground and immediately got up, excitedly running over again.

Jingang was the most well-behaved, standing by Qiping's feet. Although he didn't know what his big brother was looking at, he liked to imitate him. He stared deeply at the dirt path leading out of the forest farm, and if it weren't for occasionally smacking his lips, no one would have guessed that this seemingly worried guy was actually multitasking.

As for Liangshanbo and Zhu Yingtai, Qiping was too lazy to say anything; they had finally learned to fly, though not very high or far, but they could still reach the roof. Standing high and seeing far, they wanted to go out to play but were stopped by their big brother. So, they climbed up high to look far, which slightly alleviated their desire to go out and play.

"Don't come over, I'm angry now!" Seeing Black Charcoal shamelessly pushing his big head into his chest, Qiping found it quite amusing. Black Charcoal was almost always out, as the stable door was always open, giving him free access. Now, to avoid being caught by the boss, he always kept a certain distance from Qiping to be able to run away.

Qiping scratched Black Charcoal's neck and decided not to train him for the time being. This guy hadn't been properly cleaned for the past few days, and only this morning did they 'make peace.' Thinking about how Black Charcoal always kept a distance of about ten meters, as if in a standoff, Qiping found it quite amusing. Although Black Charcoal didn't want to practice riding, he wouldn't really be angry with Qiping; otherwise, he wouldn't follow Qiping wherever he went. He was just being a bit moody.

Seeing Dong, Nan, Xi, and Bei perk up their ears and look down the road, Qiping knew the main guests had arrived. He picked up Winnie, who still wanted to play with the older kids, to keep him calm for a while. He also called out to Dong, Nan, Xi, and Bei, telling them not to scare the little guests. As for Black Charcoal, since they had made peace, he should go out to play; otherwise, his bad temper might scare the little guests.

The school bus arrived, driving directly into the forest farm, as agreed upon by Qiping and Kate. Even from a distance, the sound of the children could be heard, and they were all very excited to be out playing.

The bus door opened, and Kate was the first to get off, smiling at Qiping who was leading a group of little followers. Kate felt very proud.

"Teacher, I saw Jingang!" The children were the most excited, having seen Jingang before, "And the little bears, they are so cute."

"Children, line up and get off the bus in an orderly manner. This is very impolite. Mr. Qi kindly invited you to visit, and you need to thank Mr. Qi," the kindergarten principal and two other teachers, who had come with the bus, said. They knew that Kate and Qiping couldn't possibly take care of twelve children.

The little boys and girls lined up and started to get off the bus. Although their eyes couldn't leave the cute little chimpanzees and black bears, they still listened to their teachers and politely greeted Qiping.

"Welcome, welcome! I am Liangshanbo!"

"Welcome, welcome, I am Zhu Yingtai!"

Liangshanbo and Zhu Yingtai, who were standing on the roof, were excited to see the guests. They were very hospitable and greeted the guests with their best skills.

"What beautiful birds, they can talk. Uncle Qi, they are so cute!" The little boys and girls were delighted, amazed by the talking birds.

"Mr. Qi, I really appreciate your support for the children's education. I know this will give the children a wonderful memory, and I thank you for your efforts and support," the plump, gray-haired Mrs. Carrie was very grateful to Qiping. This extracurricular activity was truly wonderful for the children.

"Mrs. Carrie, this is what I should do," Qiping smiled, mostly for Kate's sake, but he knew the right words to say, "I am happy to see the cute children and hope they have a good time here."

While Qiping was still chatting with Mrs. Carrie, Kate clapped her hands and led the other two teachers and the children to the lawn. Except for the silly Winnie, Jingang, and Dong, Nan, Xi, and Bei were loyally by Qiping's side.

"Winnie loves to play games, I think it will be the happiest today," Qiping said to Mrs. Carrie, watching the chubby Winnie running after the children, "It's very mischievous, I hope it doesn't mislead the children; it only knows how to be mischievous."

"I think it's very innocent and interesting, Winnie will be the best friend of the children, and the children will also protect Winnie," Mrs. Carrie had been worried for a long time, although she had heard some things. But with a little bear and a black chimpanzee, she was really worried about potential dangers. Now, seeing these smart little guys, she was completely reassured.

Qiping patted Jingang's head, telling him to go to Kate and greet the children, and also let Dong, Nan, Xi, and Bei go over. Although the little guys were now by Qiping's side, their minds were already elsewhere; they clearly wanted to greet and play with the cute little guests.

The children's cheers were loud, and they were happily watching the cute little animals. Especially when the talking birds flew over their heads, the children clapped and cheered loudly.

Now it was Kate's time, introducing the cute little guys to the children. As Kate introduced them, the children seemed to recognize most of the little animals. Except for Dong, who was a black dog, Xi, Nan, and Bei looked very similar, and the children couldn't tell them apart for the time being.

"That beautiful black horse is Uncle Qi's partner, it's Black Charcoal. But children, Black Charcoal doesn't like others to get close to it; it likes to play alone," Kate pointed to Black Charcoal, who was looking this way, and she knew his bad temper well.

Jingang and the others were very happy now, diving into the group of children. The children hugged, petted, and played with them, which made the little guys very happy. Even Liangshanbo and Zhu Yingtai, who usually had a proud attitude, were happily diving into the group of children, finding new playmates.

Qiping and Kate returned home to prepare some drinks for the children. The two of them also had a brief chat, as they couldn't say some intimate words in front of the children.

"Dear, I am really proud of you!" Kate hugged Qiping, she was really proud, not just of the forest farm, but of Qiping himself, "I know many people seem to like children, but they wouldn't allow children to visit their homes, finding it troublesome and worrying about many things."

"I won't, because they are my beloved girlfriend's students. We need to take good care of our little guests; they are very cute," Qiping kissed Kate's rosy lips, not thinking that allowing the children to visit the forest farm was troublesome, "Let me tell you a secret, I am earning points, and I hope the cute children will accept the reality that their favorite teacher has a boyfriend."
