NOVPUBChapter 1074: Chapter 1074: At Such a Young Age, How Does One Learn to Pierce Hearts_1 Chapter 1074 -1074: At Such a Young Age, How Does One Learn to Pierce Hearts_1 How could Peggy Lewis have the nerve to take things from the family mansion and send them to her parent’s house?
She was eating and taking so much that she seemed to be overdoing it.
In a daze, Peggy Lewis even had the feeling of moving things from her husband’s family to her parent’s home.
As soon as this thought appeared, she was scared out of her wits.
She quickly shook her head, trying to get rid of this terrifying idea.
Lyke Zhekova was closely following her, always keeping an eye on Peggy Lewis, fearing that she might be neglected.
Or thinking that she might be too shy to do anything.
...
Therefore, he was closely observing Peggy Lewis’s reactions.
For example, when Peggy Lewis’s gaze fell on a distant dish, Lyke Zhekova would immediately pick up the dish and put it in front of Peggy Lewis if she was too shy to reach for it herself.
As a result, even though Peggy Lewis was too shy to reach out, she still managed to taste all the dishes.
When Peggy Lewis suddenly shook her head, Lyke Zhekova was the first to notice.
“What’s wrong?” Lyke Zhekova immediately asked Peggy Lewis.
Peggy Lewis was too shy to voice the thought that had just popped into her head.
She simply murmured in embarrassment, “Nothing.”
Lyke Zhekova thought to himself, how could she shake her head if nothing was wrong?
But he didn’t press her.
If Peggy Lewis wasn’t saying anything, she probably didn’t want to talk about it.
If he kept asking, she would feel awkward.
As for Peggy Lewis’s family situation, the Old Madam had learned enough about it last time.
This time, the focus was on learning more about Peggy Lewis’s work and daily hobbies, etc.
One could say that Peggy Lewis’s situation was thoroughly investigated.
Once the little guy had eaten enough, he wanted to go to the restroom.
Lyke Zhekova took the opportunity to follow him.
As the little guy was in the middle of using the bathroom, he heard the door open and saw Lyke Zhekova walk in.
The little guy immediately covered his private part with his hands, “Fourth Grandfather, why are you coming in?
I’m not done using the bathroom yet.”
Lyke Zhekova glanced at the little guy’s private part, which was so small it was hard to look directly at it.
What was the point of him covering it?
Even if he didn’t cover it, Lyke Zhekova wouldn’t notice.
But when he did cover it, that’s when Lyke Zhekova looked in that direction.
“Then hurry up and finish,” Lyke Zhekova urged.
The little guy hesitated, “If you’re watching me, I can’t go.”
Lyke Zhekova chuckled, not expecting the little guy to be so particular.
Since he needed something from him, Lyke Zhekova turned his back compliantly, “Fine, I won’t look at you.
Just hurry up.”
But the little guy knew there was someone else in the restroom, and simply couldn’t relax knowing that Lyke Zhekova was standing next to him.
“Fourth Grandfather, why don’t you wait outside?” the little guy suggested.
“You’re quite demanding for a kid,” Lyke Zhekova retorted.
“You can wait outside and come in after I’m done,” the little guy proposed.
Lyke Zhekova thought to himself, this kid really knows how to hold it in.
Wasn’t he supposed to be in the middle of using the bathroom?
Why was he talking so much?
Didn’t he feel any urgency at all?
“I don’t need to use the bathroom,” Lyke Zhekova clarified, “I have something to discuss with you.”
The little guy saw that Lyke Zhekova had a serious look on his face as if he were about to share something big.
He immediately became serious too.
Even his nervous yet mysterious question was, “Fourth Grandfather, what big issue do you want to discuss with me?”
“Aren’t you using the bathroom?
I’ll tell you later,” Lyke Zhekova replied, “It’s a big issue.”
Upon hearing this, the little guy said, “Okay, I’ll be quick!”
Lyke Zhekova thus left the restroom first and waited outside the door.
The little guy quickly finished and opened the door.
Seeing that Lyke Zhekova was waiting outside the door, the little guy waved to him, “Fourth Grandfather, come in.”
Lyke Zhekova went in and closed the door.
Seeing that Lyke Zhekova had come to find him specifically and had avoided the others, the little guy felt that this must be a major issue that only the two of them could know about.
He was very satisfied with Lyke Zhekova’s special attention to him.
Even though the place where the big issue was being discussed was in the restroom, it wasn’t exactly an ideal environment.
“Fourth Grandfather, what’s the matter?” the little guy looked up and asked.
“You call me Fourth Grandfather, and you call Peggy Lewis Godmother.
Doesn’t that sound a bit off?” Lyke Zhekova said.
The little guy blinked and said, “It doesn’t.
I call you Fourth Grandfather, and I call her Godmother.
There’s no conflict.”
“How is there no conflict?” Lyke Zhekova refuted, “I’m in love with her.
If you continue to call me Fourth Grandfather and her Godmother, it won’t be appropriate.”
After thinking for a moment, the little guy asked, “Are you two in love now?”
Lyke Zhekova: “…..”
How did this child learn to be so sharp at such a young age?
“It’ll be very soon,” Lyke Zhekova replied.
If the little guy could be easily brushed off by Lyke Zhekova, he wouldn’t be the little guy, would he?
He’s someone who has inherited the excellent genes and intellect of Adrian Zhekova and Cindy Clarke.
Even before meeting Adrian Zhekova, the little guy was already precocious.
He started speaking early and learned everything quickly.
Moreover, he was eloquent.
When many other children of his age could only express themselves with simple words, the little guy was already able to form complete sentences.
And his diction was clear, his expression concise, and he even spoke faster than children his age.
Whatever you taught him, he could remember quickly and infer other things from it.
Cindy Clarke even felt that her conditions were limited, and thus she delayed the little guy’s progress.
If she had more time in her daily life and could expend more energy on the little guy, he might be able to learn even more things.
Like many children from high-status families, receiving an elite education.
However, Cindy Clarke wasn’t overly bothered about it.
After all, nothing is achieved without having given something up.
An elite education involves many classes.
Just like the children at Jetaime Academy, from nursery onwards, they learn a variety of subjects.
It’s not only about learning foreign languages, math, etc., but also skiing, swimming, horse riding, golf, and the like.
It seems like a well-rounded development, involving a varied range of activities.
But were these classes something the children really enjoyed?
Children have different personalities and interests.
Some like horse riding but don’t like skiing.
Some like taekwondo but don’t like golf.
Some may enjoy it at first, but if the learning process is too tough, the pleasure quickly turns into pressure.
Exceptional children are exceptional because they have made too much effort.
Making so much effort from a young age, they lose a lot of the fun of childhood.
That’s why Cindy Clarke said, where there’s gain, there’s loss.
Although the little guy didn’t learn as many things and only picked up swimming and taekwondo based on his interests,
Cindy Clarke didn’t coerce him to become particularly good at them.
Knowing how to swim can effectively prevent drowning.
Children can’t avoid coming into contact with rivers and lakes in their lifetime.
But as soon as they do, there’s a risk of accidents.
Being able to swim can at least ensure their own safety to some extent. 𝔫𝖔𝔳𝖕𝖚𝔟.𝔠𝔬𝖒
The same goes for taekwondo, it helps one stay fit and provides some self-defense capabilities.
But again, Cindy Clarke didn’t force him to master it.
If he enjoyed it, he could practice up to the point that was acceptable for him without the need for outstanding results.
