Athena put Cheng Ling Deer in the center of the bed and let her jump up on the soft bed. Then she said lightly to Chen Youyi: "Don't call me Miss Athena, call me Cheng Ya or Xiao Ya."

"Cheng Ya?" Chen Youyi asked curiously, "You named your own Chinese name?"

Athena nodded.

"What a good name," Chen Youyi said softly: "Without choice in things, you can become elegant when you write; when you think without hesitation, you must create subtle things." (A writer, a painter can write or draw elegant but not vulgar works with just one stroke.)

Chen Youyi's series of obscure praise did not surprise Athena. She still said calmly: "I didn't think so much when I named it. Guanfu's surname is our Europa tradition. "Ya" is my own name, so I put together such a name. Later, when I was memorizing the idioms, I found that there was an idiom like "Work in the pen and become the elegance", which I thought was quite interesting."

Chen Youyi nodded and said, "This is the beauty of life! Many times, unintentional actions will produce an unexpected sweet fruit afterwards. Regardless of whether the fruit is abundant or not, it is a gift from destiny. This sense of luck is also one of the greatest happiness in life."

"I can find a corresponding idiom for your words - 'unintentional willow'," said Athena.

Chen Youyi said surprisingly: "Miss Cheng Ya's understanding of Chinese is really surprising."

"You can remove the 'Miss'' term." Athena didn't have any polite tone, but just gave her a direct order.

If someone who is not familiar with her will feel that this is a naked tone of command. If Cheng Mo hadn't had been vaccinated for a long time, Chen Youyi might have been unable to get used to Athena's somewhat condescending and arrogant attitude. However, Cheng Mo said at the beginning that Athena's speech was always in this tone, and there was no intention of looking down on others. Chen Youyi had done a lot of construction with herself in her heart, so she smiled and said, "Generally for foreigners, one of the biggest difficulties in learning Chinese should be idioms, right?"

Athena showed a thoughtful expression, and then said after a moment: "Idioms are actually easier to learn. According to the number in the "Chinese Idioms Collection", there are only 31,885, which can be memorized easily. However, those homophones will be more troubled to foreigners, because this will not be encountered in other languages."

Chen Youyi instantly understood what Athena meant, but when she thought of what Athena said, "It's only 31,885", she suddenly became a dazed. Even she didn't know how many idioms there were in Chinese, and asked in surprise: "Have you memorized more than 30,000 idioms?"

Athena nodded disregardlessly.

Chen Youyi became ill when he became a teacher, and asked in disbelief: "Then I'll take you?"

"Okay!" Athena felt a little spiritual, "How to take the exam? Idiom solitaire?"

"Idiom solitaire?" Chen Youyi smiled, "It's OK."

Athena sat down on the edge of the bed and said seriously: "If you encounter the word "one", then 'one top two' are not allowed to be said."

Chen Youyi laughed silently: "It seems that you often play idiom solitaire."

"I've only played it once," said Athena.

Cheng Mo said: "Xiaoxi, don't underestimate her. Last time, Yan Yitong lost eight cups in a row."

Hearing Cheng Mo say this, Chen Youyi became more and more interested and said with a smile: "Then I'll try it. You start first."

Athena thought for a moment and started with a difficult idiom, "helping evil to abuse."

As a Chinese teacher, of course, I would not be stumped by such difficulty. I took it without thinking, "I abuse the old beast's heart."

Athena thought for a second and immediately said, "I have no strength left."

Obviously, the pause was Athena who found an idiom that started with the word "heart" that could not be followed, instead of thinking about what idioms that started with the word "heart".

Chen Youyi frowned and thought for a while and said, "Awesome. There is no idiom that starts with the word "无无".

Athena nodded, "It's true that there isn't, so I chose this idiom."

"Then I start this time?"

"Okay." said Athena.

The two of them played the idioms, such as "patching together" and "combing together four-in-one six", such as "the road of enemies is narrow" and "narrow doors and narrow households", such as "how the Yi people are usurping the throne and seizing power", such as "concerning the well-being" and "warming clothes and full food". Such idioms that are so rare that Cheng Mo has to think about for a long time are correct.

Cheng Mo never thought that Idiom Sequencer could play a game that would meet a good talent when they met an opponent. The right one was long and could not reach the end for more than ten minutes. Later, Chen Youyi thought that "Idiom Sequencer" only had no value in memory, so he asked Athena if she wanted to learn "right couple". Athena was quite interested, so she really started listening to Chen Youyi's class.

Bored Cheng Mo thought about taking the opportunity to make his daughter happy. He ran to the door and took a handful of snacks he had just bought in the supermarket, trying to get closer to his daughter. He squatted beside the bed, holding a dog-boned Mickey Lando cheese stick, shaking at Cheng Lingde, who was finally jumping on the bed, with a strange smile on his face, and said flatteringly: "Little Deer, do you want to eat a cheese stick?"

Cheng Linglu turned her head and looked at Cheng Mo, and continued to jump around on the bed with a smile, as if Cheng Mo was a wild dog on the side of the road that was waving his tail and begging for mercy.

Seeing that the cheese sticks of Miaokolando were not working well, Cheng Mo took out a bag of coarse grain animal biscuits from his pocket and shine Cheng Ling Deer, "Little Deer, what is this? Little Animal Biscuits! Let's see what this is, this is a puppy, this is a bear."

Cheng Linglu shook her little head and began to shout "puppy" at Cheng Mo while jumping around. Cheng Mo, who was squatting beside the bed, watched his daughter jump around, not only ignored him, but also was a "dog" and a "bear". She was really crying and she threw down the animal biscuits, and Cheng Mo took out her killer weapon - "chocolate". Chen Youyi just told him in the supermarket that it was probably because of heredity, and Cheng Linglu loved chocolate.

Cheng Mo took out a piece of "Dove chocolate" from his pocket and said confidently: "Little Deer, what about this? Chocolate! Do you want to eat this?"

Cheng Linglu, who had been jumping on the bed for almost half an hour, sat on the bed with her little head tilted towards Cheng Mo, and her big black eyes looked at him quietly. Cheng Mo was excited and thought she had a chance. She quickly peeled off the chocolate packaging in a hurry, shook it and said, "Fragrant and sweet, it also contains vitamin B2, calcium, iron, phosphorus, magnesium, copper, zinc, potassium, and anti-peccosis vitamins. It's good for the body after taking it!"

Cheng Linglu really moved this time. She walked to Cheng Mo's side with small footprints on the soft bed, took the chocolate, ran to the edge of the bed and handed it to Chen Youyi, humming, "Mom."

Chen Youyi smiled and shook his head, "Mom won't eat it."

Just as Shen Youyi was about to say something again, Cheng Linglu walked towards Athena again and said obediently: "San Mama Eat."

Athena looked down at Cheng Linglu with anticipation, hesitated for a moment and said, "One person is half."

Cheng Linglu immediately broke the chocolate into two pieces and handed the more half to Athena's mouth. Seeing her daughter share the chocolate she gave to Athena, she didn't even look at him, Cheng Mo's heart became sad again. Could it be that her daughter has been keen on since she was a child? It turns out that Athena is awesome than her father, so she keeps licking? Daughter! You can't lick the dog, if you really treat your father like this, be careful that your father's inheritance is less.

But then Cheng Mo thought again that if Cheng Linglu could get Athena's favor, she would probably get more than he could give. Seeing her daughter sitting next to Athena, holding Athena's pajamas like two dolls, one big and one small, Cheng Mo was both happy and sad. It was so sad that the family of four had not yet won the recognition of her daughter.

———————————————————

Four people ate a little casually at noon, and Chen Youyi began to prepare the New Year's Eve dinner in the afternoon. Cheng Mo turned on the phone, and the voices of text messages were endless. When he opened it, he saw that it was almost all the calls from Fu Yuanzhuo and Yan Yitong. Cheng Mo walked to the guest room and replied to Fu Yuanzhuo's phone number first. What came from there was Yan Yitong's anxious voice.

"Cheng Mo, have you read Nanxi's interview?"

"Look." Cheng Mo answered calmly.

"Why are you so calm in your answer? Now the Internet is full of scolding you and Teacher Shen."

"If you scold me, let them scold me." Cheng Mo said lightly, but he thought in his heart that Xi Shi's efficiency was still a bit low.

"Oh! That teacher Shen," Yan Yitong said hesitantly, "No. It's not a daughter."

"Yes." Cheng Moyi replied in a scattered manner, "My."

The sound on the other side of the phone disappeared for a long time. Perhaps Yan Yitong was completely confused, and then Fu Yuanzhuo's scream came: "Ah!? No! My TM has not yet gotten single, so Cheng Mo has become a father? Damn it! This pace is too fast!"

Yan Yitong asked resentfully: "It's really you, you and Teacher Shen?"

“Really.”

"What are you going to do now?"

Cheng Mo said without hesitation: "Take the responsibility you should bear."

"Athena knows?"

"Well, she got it."

Yan Yitong said with a smile: "My God, you didn't quarrel, are you? If you quarrel, don't blame me for gloating~~!"

"There is no quarrel! Now that Teacher Shen, my daughter and Athena are all together."

"Ah~!?" Yan Yitong said fussfully, "What's your way of getting along now?"

Cheng Mo said angrily: "This is not something you should worry about."

"Oh~~~~~~" Yan Yitong said twice with unknown meaning, and muttered again, "I just want to ask, you have two, can you add one more?"

"What did you say?"

"I am. I mean whether to celebrate New Year's Eve together."

"No, no, let's get together after the New Year!"

After chatting a few more randomly, Yan Yitong handed the phone to Fu Yuanzhuo. Fu Yuanzhuo was much more excited than Yan Yitong and kept saying that he wanted to see Cheng Mo's daughter. Cheng Mo certainly knew that Chen Youyi would definitely not want to see the original student at this time. He refused very firmly and said that there would definitely be a chance in the future. Fu Yuanzhuo also said that he would take the gift money. Cheng Mo said that young people would not do the same etiquette and buy some toys or something at that time. Fu Yuanzhuo did not force it. After making an appointment for a party after the New Year, Cheng Mo hung up the phone.

Cheng Mo passed Chen Mengjie's friend request on WeChat again. Not long after, he received a screenshot of the chat in the Changya group sent by Chen Mengjie. Seeing some excessive remarks from Tang Shuisheng and Tian Bin and Qian Xiaojia, Cheng Mo frowned.

"Do you want me to pull you into the group?"

Cheng Mo typed quickly and replied: "No, I will deal with it."

Chen Mengjie first responded to "Okay", and then sent a voice call to invite him and Shen Youyi to have dinner after the New Year. Now Cheng Mo is not very good at rejecting Chen Mengjie. After all, they are not just classmates, but also relatives. Thinking that the bad relationship between Chen Youyi and his parents might also need Chen Mengjie to help ease, Cheng Mo agreed.

Moreover, the voice sent by Chen Mengjie did not hide her gloating at all. This subtle tone of standing on their side was very comfortable. Cheng Mo thought that Chen Mengjie is much more versatile than before, and is not as arrogant as before. It seems that her experience after loan shark still changed a lot.

—————————————————

In order to put aside those small troubles of the world, Cheng Mo continued to turn off the phone. Anyway, there were important things to find him, and he could find any of them. As for other matters about Chen Youyi that need to be dealt with, he planned to make a list after the New Year. After all, there were many people and it would not be solved in a short time.

Cheng Mo returned to the room, and his daughter Cheng Linglu had already changed into the pajamas that Chen Youyi brought to her, leaned against Athena's arms, and watched "Crayon Shin-chief" with Athena. Although Cheng Linglu couldn't understand much, she was also enjoying it. Will she still ask Athena questions?

Athena looked like she was ignoring her answer, but Cheng Linglu didn't care at all. She still talked tirelessly with Athena, and looked very intimate. Seeing that there was no place for him, his own father to intervene, Cheng Mo felt a little sad, but he was also amazed by his daughter, the little clever ghost.

"I have been so sensible since I was a child. What will happen in the future? I'm afraid I won't even be stolen when I meet a god general. The starting point is too high. It's too early to start thinking about my daughter's marriage at the age of two and a half. Those who are fathers have to prepare for the future!"

Cheng Mo became distressed.

He quietly left the bedroom and Cheng Mo walked to the kitchen. Chen Youyi was preparing ingredients in the pink and white apron he bought in the supermarket. Unlike yesterday's loose home clothes, today the apron is covered with a long hip-covered tweed skirt. The curve of his figure is becoming more and more seductive, making people involuntarily think of countless masterpieces of the "housekeeper" genre. Unfortunately, Cheng Mo's skills are not good at driving, otherwise what whistles in his mind at this time must be those license plate numbers that make people beat themselves.

Chen Youyi, who was rolling out the dumpling skin, turned his head and saw Cheng Mo and said softly: "What are you doing when you come in?"

Cheng Mo, who was shaking his heart, whispered: "I'll help you."

Chen Youyi shook his head, "You don't need to help, just wait for the meal."

Cheng Mo hugged Chen Youyi from behind. The sound of running water in the basin was waving, washing the snails in the basin. He reached his hand in front and held Chen Youyi's hand to help her roll the dumpling skin.

Chen Youyi said a little panickedly: "Aren't you causing trouble?"

Cheng Mo put his head on Shen Youyi's shoulder and whispered, "Who told your daughter not to play with me, she only plays with Athena." After pausing, he complained again, "By the way! He still recognizes the thief as his father."

Chen Youyi laughed, "If you think I'm not in charge, then you go and beat her beer! Why are you here to come to me?" Cheng Mo sighed and said, "I can't bear to beat her." He held the rolling bar, "Then I can only beat your beer."

Chen Youyi's face suddenly seemed to burn, red and beautiful, and said in a trembling voice: "Cheng Mo, when did you become so hooligan?"

"I think I was too serious and boring, so I missed a lot of fun. Now I have to make up for it."

Cheng Mo didn't care that there was flour in his hand, so he raised his hand and pinched Chen Youyi's chin, twisted her face, and then there was a long and deep contact. The two of them rushed on the Akime Mountain for a while, until Chen Youyi accidentally pressed the chopping board and all the dumpling skins that had finally rolled down on the ground. Cheng Mo was driven out of the kitchen and didn't even allow him to wash his hands.

When Cheng Mo stood in the huge living room when he heard Chen Youyi lock the kitchen door, he felt ups and downs again.
