After everyone had played around for a while, Xia Chuan and Deng Chao successfully took their seats.

"Eat quickly, it'll get cold soon," Chen He said.

Despite their playful banter, they're still good brothers.

Xia Chuan sat down next to Xia Nian, glanced at the smiling Liu Yifei, swallowed hard, and said with an awkward smile, "Thank you, Yifei, for taking care of Nian Nian."

Deng Chaozheng boasted, casually saying, "You know what, I think Niannian and Yifei get along really well. They're both beautiful, so why don't we have Niannian recognize Yifei as her godmother? What do you guys think?"

Upon hearing this, everyone looked at Xia Chuan, Xia Nian, and Liu Yifei.

Tian Yu agreed, "I think Yi Fei also seems to like Niannian very much. It's not bad for Niannian to have such a godmother who likes her. It just depends on what Yi Fei thinks."

Lu Han took a sip of water and nodded: "You know what, I really think Yi Fei and Niannian are a good match. I always feel like they should be mother and daughter."

Wang Mian and the other two nodded repeatedly.

But Chen He's heart skipped a beat. His gaze swept over Xia Chuan, who looked somewhat embarrassed, Xia Nian, who was engrossed in her food, and Liu Yifei, who had a smile on her face. His heart sank: "No way, no way? That shameless Chuanzi actually made that kind of expression?"

"And what about Niannian, who's usually so boisterous? She didn't even respond to that?"

"As for Liu Yifei, I'm not really that familiar with her. Let's wait and see."

Xia Chuanxian glanced furtively at Liu Yifei, who had a half-smile on her face, then patted Xia Nian, who was eating, and pretended to cough, saying, "Um, Brother Chao, don't talk nonsense. Yifei is a top female celebrity, how could she..."

"I think it's good, but I don't know if Niannian will be willing?"

However, before Xia Chuan could finish speaking, Liu Yifei interrupted her, then patted Xia Nian's head and asked softly, "Nian Nian, what do you think of my godmother from back then?"

"Huh? Godmother?" Xia Nian looked up and met Liu Yifei's smiling gaze. She was momentarily stunned, but then her little head bobbed up like a chick pecking at rice: "Great! Great! I love you so much, Godmother! The first time I saw you, I thought, how can someone be as beautiful as my mom!"

"You're absolutely right, godmother! You're the most beautiful godmother besides my mom!"

Xia Nian looked serious and earnest, yet her whole demeanor exuded a touch of humor. Coupled with the other party's ingratiating tone, it made everyone burst into laughter.

Chen He said with a smile, "Don't accept it. Nian Nian really has a talent for comedy."

Seeing how cooperative her daughter was, Liu Yifei's smile deepened. She tapped the girl's forehead with her finger and said with a smile, "Alright, then you'll be my goddaughter from now on."

Goddaughter? Mom, you really know how to play this game!

Xia Nian thought to herself, but her face beamed with a smile: "Godmother!"

Liu Yifei grinned from ear to ear: "Okay, good boy, your godmother will buy you ten or eight kindergarten workbooks later!"

Upon hearing this, Xia Nian's smile froze instantly, and her gaze towards Liu Yifei was filled with resentment.

She is still young, so Xia Chuan and Liu Yifei haven't sent her to kindergarten. However, because she inherited some of Xia Chuan's super brain talents, she is very smart, which makes Liu Yifei, her mother, extremely happy. She often buys kindergarten workbooks, and even first and second grade ones.

Xia Nian would do it, but she didn't want to keep doing it!

"Hahaha! I think this gift is great!" Deng Chao almost burst out laughing when he saw Xia Nian's resentful expression.

Tian Yu shook his head and chuckled: "It seems that we still need to start nurturing this child from a young age."

Lu Han: "Niannian is so young, yet she bears pressure that she shouldn't have to endure. I admire her greatly!"

Chen He ate his food with a smile, watching the excitement, but secretly he was observing Xia Chuan's expression.

Seeing this, Xia Nian pouted, turned to look at Xia Chuan, who had a calm expression, and called out, "Dad, what should we do? 'Godmother' wants to buy us workbooks!"

She emphasized the word "godmother" very heavily.

Upon hearing this, Xia Chuan felt a heavy, imposing gaze upon him before he could even speak. He swallowed hard and looked at Xia Nian seriously, saying, "Nian Nian! What did Dad tell you? You must always say thank you when someone gives you a gift!"

"Come on, say thank you to your godmother!"

After Xia Chuan finished speaking, she looked at Liu Yifei, who was smiling, and gave her a humble smile that was neither too obvious nor too subtle: "Thank you, godmother of the child."

Liu Yifei raised an eyebrow and smiled gently: "You're welcome, Nian Nian's dad."

My husband is quite cooperative, so I'll let you off the hook tonight.

Xia Nian: SO? So I'm just a part of your play?

Xia Nian said expressionlessly, "Thank you so much, godmother!"

Seeing Xia Nian's discomfiture, everyone laughed again, albeit unkindly.

"You know what, there are very few people who can make this little girl Niannian suffer a setback," Deng Chao said with a shake of his head and a smile.

After eating for a while, everyone was finally full.

Old Wang said, "Alright, are you full? Let's get going after you've eaten."

These living devils are really causing a ruckus!

No one objected, and they got up and walked downstairs.

"Ugh, I'm on the bus again. I still miss the days during the day." Deng Chao felt unhappy about everything as soon as he got on the bus and couldn't help but sigh with nostalgia.

Unsurprisingly, this remark drew glares from everyone, except for Xia Chuan, who hid like a coward.

Time passed again, and the bus finally came to a stop.

"Come on, brothers and sisters, let's go to our final stop, Jingdezhen Imperial Kiln Villa!" Wang Mian shouted from the back row.

Deng Chao clutched his aching lower back and said with a wry smile, "You know what, this bumpy road has really made my back hurt."

Lu Han scoffed, "You've only been here a short time; we've been sitting here all day!"

Xia Chuan held Xia Nian's hand, and Liu Yifei stood beside him; everything seemed so natural.

As everyone went inside, they exclaimed in amazement at the various items.

They were led by a middle-aged man wearing glasses, who introduced them to everything here and then led them to their resting place for the night.

"This is where you'll rest. You can arrange your own rooms," said Huang Guojun, the manager of the resort, with a smile.

"Wow, they're recruiting dance teachers here. I think Yifei would be perfect for it," Deng Chao said with a smile, looking at the recruitment poster on the wall.

"Chen Yi is also very suitable; he dances very well," Lu Han added.

"Oh my, there are actors here too? This is my comfort zone!" Chen He shamelessly patted himself on the back. "Let me show you what a true movie star looks like!"

Xia Chuan directly mocked, "Brother He, how long has it been since you acted?"

Deng Chao: "Best Actor? I'm the real Best Actor! And Yifei is the Best Actress! Brother Yu isn't bad either, so why should you be considered?"

Chen He grinned and sneered, "Hmph!"

Liu Yifei covered her mouth and chuckled: "I guess it's the director again, trying to get us to work."

Zhang Yanqi and Wang Chenyi nodded in deep agreement, and Wang Mian smiled.

Xia Nian crossed her arms and raised an eyebrow: "Work? I'll never work in my life!"

PS:

[Question: If the author has already stated that Xia Nian is very intelligent because she inherited Xia Chuan's super brain, making her more intelligent than an average four-year-old child, is that acceptable?]

Q: Is it possible to be a born prodigy?
