Ch.71 Failure (3)

“What does provoke mean?” Ji Yu asked.

Xiao Yu looked up and thought for a while, she then said: “It’s like……when it’s your birthday and you came back and found out that dad didn’t buy you a birthday cake.”

Ji Yu frowned and looked at Ji Xuan unhappily, she listened as Xiao Yu continued on: “But, he bought himself a cake.”

Ji Yu: “!!!”

Ji Xuan, who was sitting there playing with his son: “……”

Xiao Yu smiled and looked at Ji Yu: “How does it feel like?”

Ji Yu said pitifully: “This, this, this is too much. I’m not happy. I want to hit him.”

Xiao Yu nodded, “Yes, that’s what you did today.”

Ji Xuan silently picked up Xiao Ruoguang and sat on the sofa, and watched as Xiao Yu talked to Ji Yu: “If you can’t beat him and you can’t run away, you don’t make him even more angry. That’s because he’s crazy so he’ll hurt you.”

Xiao Yu hugged Ji Yu that sat on her lap as she said, “If something like this happens, your parents will be very sad.”

Ji Yu frowned and lowered her head, she thought for a while and asked, “What should I do? He bullied you.”

Xiao Yu kissed her and said, “It’s okay. Mom just wants you to be safe, and you definitely want your mother to be safe too, right?”

Ji Yu nodded, and then asked, “What if Dad was there?”

Xiao Yu laughed and said, “Then leave it to Dad! You’re still a child, you have the right to be protected.”

Ji Yu nodded again, she stuffed her head in Xiao Yu’s arms, it was her mother’s scent. Unlike her father’s tough arms, her mother’s arms were very soft. Ji Yu felt rather relieved, and promised, “I’ll protect you when I grow up.”

Xiao Ruoguang, who was listening on the side, raised his hand and asked, “Mom, so you can fight on if you think you can defeat the person, right?”

Xiao Yu touched her chin and smiled as she said, “No, no, no, my son, if we can beat him, then we shouldn’t  feel afraid. But if he doesn’t hit you, you shouldn’t hit him first. If he does, then fight back. It’s called self-defense, the police can’t arrest you for that!”

“Cough cough cough……” Ji Xuan coughed as he looked at Xiao Yu and said, “Don’t teach our children to fight.”

Xiao Yu said, “I didn’t teach them to fight! I’m teaching them about self-defense!”

“Especially Ji Yu……” Xiao Yu said unhappily, “She can be arrogant, but she has to change that bad temper of hers. This world is so big, you can’t always be with her, no one will spoil her like you do, not everyone is her parents. Hence, Ji Yu can be arrogant, but she must know what is right and what is wrong. She has to know how to be afraid and worried of things, otherwise, if she doesn’t care about anything, how terrible would that be?”

“Okay! I can’t fight over you, continue on!” Ji Xuan hugged the little bean in his arms and he watched her quietly.

Xiao Yu hugged Ji Yu tightly: “There’s no need to continue! It’s not something one could understand in an hour, a day or a month, you have to slowly understand it. Today, I just wanted to let Ji Yu know that she shouldn’t provoke a person that could hurt her, that’s all.”

Ji Yu nodded and said, “Well, I’ll listen to whatever my mother says. I know, I shouldn’t have scolded him at that time. I’ll change, as my brother just said, when I’m better than him, I’ll scold him then.”

“Uh……” Xiao Yu touched her chin: “Why does this sound weird?”

Ji Xuan: “……”

Xiao Yu looked up and thought for a while before saying, “Forget it, it’s too difficult to teach children about this. Let’s take it slowly, I’ll slowly teach you about this.” Maybe this could even be passed on to the male and female lead?
