Chapter 826: Chapter 667: Tricks for Pacifying Children

Xia Youqing looked at the question-asking mother, thought for a moment and said, "I think what a child grows up to be also depends on their talent and character."

"What’s the difference between saying that and saying nothing?"

The guest mother instinctively wanted to criticize, but soon remembered that Xia Youqing divorced early from her ex-husband.

From her perspective, Xia Youqing didn’t seem to be a mother who would put effort into educating her child, and she understood Xia Youqing’s laid-back attitude, "You’re right."

She looked at Xia Youqing smiling, "Parental education is important for what a child grows up to be, but a child’s personal talent, skills, and character are even more important."

Jin Quan joked, acting like someone with experience, "For children who have strong self-motivation, parents indeed need to worry less. Meanwhile, parental respect can also make children more confident, which helps them to showcase their talent."

"Confidence is really important for a child," another guest spoke up.

The guests present agreed quite a bit on this point, so the host asked, "I’d like to ask the young guests seated here, do you consider yourselves to be confident people?"

The camera first focused on Jin SuYan’s face, and she smiled brightly, "I’ve always thought I can become anyone I want to be, without any time restriction, I can start anytime."

The entire sentence didn’t mention confidence at all, yet every word was filled with confidence.

The other guests admired her confidence very much.

Then everyone proceeded to analyze themselves about where they were confident and where they weren’t. When it was Xie Yizun’s turn, the host asked him an additional question, "Yiyi, in your family, who do you think is the most confident person?"

The host was asking Xie Yizun, but his gaze fell on Xia Youqing beside him, and others’ gazes also lingered on her.

Because they all expected Xie Yizun would surely answer that it’s his mom.

After all, since her debut, Xia Youqing has always shown herself to be confident, cool, and daring in the industry.

But Xie Yizun gave an unexpected answer —

"My sister."

Once more, everyone was startled.

"I thought you would say your mom is the most confident person in your family." The host laughed, speaking the thought of everyone.

Xie Yizun glanced at Xia Youqing, who was smiling beside him, "My mom is quite confident."

—"But she’s not the most confident person in our family, my sister is."

He spoke affirmatively, yet the guests internally remained skeptical.

Mainly because they thought, how confident can a girl from a divorced family be?

If Xie Yizun were to say the most confident person in their family was himself, it would be more plausible than saying it’s his sister.

Some even thought, "If a girl were truly confident, she’d surely live a radiant and flamboyant life. Such a person would never become a reserved teacher or do academic work."

In conclusion, the more Xie Yizun spoke, the less logical his words seemed to the guests present.

Xie Yizun couldn’t understand the deeply hidden emotional changes in the guests’ eyes, but Xia Youqing could.

Everyone saw her smile brightly, "I’m not as confident as my daughter."

After drawing everyone’s attention to herself with one sentence, Xia Youqing continued to explain slowly, "Much of my confidence comes from personal accumulation, experience, and external affirmation. Many times, if I encounter something unexpected, I might lose control, might feel fear. But my daughter’s confidence doesn’t, it grows from within. She’s the kind of person who, even if the entire world says she’s bad, critiques her, she has a stable and strong core, one that is invincible. Her confidence not only provides great energy to herself but also influences others."

Xie Yizun picked up Xia Youqing’s words, "Since young, my sister loved to tell me, ’Our Yiyi is the best,’ such as when she just started playing the piano at four, she’d say ’Our Yiyi plays as well as someone at level ten,’ or when the school held a sports meet, I only won third place, but my sister was so happy, as if I’d won first, and she loudly said beside the sports field: ’Yiyi’s amazing, Yiyi’s the best.’ Being with her always gives me so much strength."

Xie Yizun’s voice grew slightly calm, "I feel like no matter what mess I’m in, even if I’m a mess, I can see a shining version of myself in her eyes."

The scene gradually became quiet, and many people had less of the previous frivolity and skepticism in their eyes.

Perhaps it was because of the touching way the young man spoke, or perhaps it was the calmness in his tone that made people feel its seriousness and sincerity.

In any case, the atmosphere on-site quickly exuded a serene vibe, as if everyone was involuntarily contemplating something.

The host enjoyed stirring things up, and after Xie Yizun and Xia Youqing finished answering, he, taking advantage of everyone’s deep thoughts, nudged Jin SuYan, "SuYan, didn’t you say you know Yiyi’s sister well, is she as confident as he described?"

Jin SuYan felt slightly displeased internally but maintained a calm appearance. After a thoughtful moment, she laughed, "Yiyi’s right."

She looked at Xie Yizun with a smile, then at Xia Youqing, and added, "However, I do see confidence equally in Auntie and his sister."

Actually, Jin SuYan was somewhat avoiding talking about Ning Youguang.

Her reluctance wasn’t just because she wasn’t familiar with Ning Youguang, but also because, more than the other guests present, she understood the unspeakable matters of the Ning family.

For Xia Youqing and Xie Yizun, as family members, it’s their business no matter how they talk, but if she talked too much, it wouldn’t just be family business anymore.

Not only for her but also for her family and her fiancé’s family, it wasn’t suitable to be overly indiscreet publicly about the Ning family’s matters, this boundary, she understood.

...

Outside the screen, Shi Wangyue was amused by Xie Yizun’s various flattering words about his sister.

But very soon, he seemingly puzzled asked Ning Youguang, "Why were your compliments about Yiyi playing the piano the same as when you praised me playing back then?"

Ning Youguang rubbed her forehead, "I lack cultural literacy, besides those words, I don’t know how else to compliment."

She certainly couldn’t honestly tell him, "It’s my trick to cheer up kids!"

Ning Youguang and Shi Wangyue hurried home, turned on the TV directly, and focused their attention on the speeches from the guests on the screen.

Normally, they rarely watch TV at home, and the big screen in their house is occasionally used for watching movies, so they’re not accustomed to having bullet comments on. 1314
