Bab 360: Chapter 360: Seems to Have Grown Up

"Xiao Bei, be good. Sister's not going anywhere. I'll stay home with you, and even if I have to leave, I'll take you with me, okay?" Ji Xinhe coaxed gently.

It was only then that Xiao Bei nodded with red-rimmed eyes: "Sister is the best!"

Ji Xinhe smiled: "Let's go inside."

However, Xiao Bei suddenly asked, "Sister, didn't you say that you brought a new friend for me? I saw two young ladies outside, but I didn't see the new friend."

Ji Xinhe led him into the house: "He'll be back tonight. You'll see him then."

"Good!" Xiao Bei responded with eager joy, nodding his head excitedly.

Ji Xinhe then laughingly asked, "What did you learn in school today? I haven't had time to quiz you properly since I got back. I heard that you've already mastered the Thousand Character Classic?"

Xiao Bei proudly said, "I can recite the Thousand Character Classic already! The teacher even praised me today!"
