Tech Dominator Starts with Raising Kids

Chapter 674: Chapter 674: Starting at Twenty Minutes

In the laboratory, Candy sat on a stool, eating fruit, watching her brother and a group of older boys and girls gathered around some satellite studying it.

Candy couldn’t understand what was so interesting about that clunky thing. It just had a few extra wings and you couldn’t even eat it.

Moreover, she recognized those wings as those ubiquitous solar panels. They were even on the streetlights by the roadside in her hometown. Because of this, Candy couldn’t understand why so many people were studying this thing.

After eating an unknown amount of food, the group of people finally dispersed, and her brother walked over to her.

Mo Jingchun pinched his sister’s cheek and smiled, saying, "Didn’t you say you don’t like coming here? What brought you here today?"

Burp~

After letting out a full burp, Candy patted her belly and jumped off the chair.

"I had nowhere else to go, so I came here."

"Oh, well, tomorrow you won’t have this worry."

With this reminder from her brother, Candy remembered that she was no longer a big kid in kindergarten but a first-grade elementary school student now.

Strangely, the term elementary school student sounded very familiar to her.

Confused, Candy scratched her head. Mo Jingchun raised an eyebrow and asked, "What are you thinking about?"

"Nothing, just that the term elementary school student sounds really familiar, as if I’ve heard it somewhere often."

Hearing this, Mo Jingchun twitched his mouth. Where else could it be, except when you and Zhou Yaling were playing rank matches?

"When you teamed up with your sister, you forget? People always ask if she’s an elementary school student. You forgot?"

"Right, right, now I remember."

"Every time my sister messed up the team, there would be teammates asking if she was an elementary school student."

"So... why do they call her an elementary school student? Are elementary schoolers bad at games? But I am the strongest player in the server."

Putting Candy’s chair back in place, Mo Jingchun smiled and said, "Probably because parents don’t let kids play games, and during ranked matches, they often go AFK."

"Makes sense." Candy pondered for a while and nodded earnestly.

----------------------------------

At a little past six in the morning, Zhou Yaling came downstairs, yawning and looking dazed.

Just happened to see her big brother coming back from his run, and Zhou Yaling gave him a thumbs up.

"Bro, you wake up so early every day; don’t you feel sleepy?"

Sweating all over, Mo Jingchun chuckled and said, "If you sleep early like I do, I guarantee you won’t need an alarm clock to wake up early every morning like I do."

Zhou Yaling waved her hand and said, "Forget it, I can’t do it."

Mo Jingchun smiled and didn’t say anything. If it hadn’t been for his body struggling because of the system, there was no way he would have changed his years-long bad habit of not exercising and developed a good habit of morning runs.

They say if people don’t push themselves, they won’t realize their potential.

It might take only two or three days to develop a lazy habit, but to form a good habit, it always starts with at least a week. Even if you form it, any slack, and you’ll backslide in three days at most.

It may seem unfair, but how many things in this world are truly fair?

At 6:58, Mo Jingchun pushed open the door and walked into Candy’s room.

On the pink bed, the little one was sleeping horizontally, with one foot sticking out.

On Candy’s right-hand side, Bun was curled up in a ball, snoring melodiously.

After waiting a while, at exactly seven, Mo Jingchun gently patted Candy’s arm and called out:

"Candy, time to get up."

"It’s the first day of school today, we can’t be late and leave a bad impression on the teacher."

Next moment, Candy turned over, pouted her lips.

"Let me sleep a little longer, I’m not fully awake yet."

Mo Jingchun’s lips curled slightly. Not awake – was she talking in her dream just now?

"Hurry up, the school bus won’t wait."

"Think about it, if you’re the only one late in the whole class, wouldn’t that be embarrassing?"

"Do you still want to be a model student?"

As expected, at the mention of being a model student, Candy sat up weakly. She said tearfully, "Why is there such a big difference between kindergarten and elementary school?"

"Hahaha, don’t worry. When you get to middle school, you’ll envy elementary school life. In high school, you’ll envy middle school life. In university, you’ll miss the good times in high school."

Rolling her eyes, Candy said helplessly, "Brother, why do I feel like you’re not comforting me but rather striking a blow to me?"

"Hahaha, is it that obvious?"

"You’re laughing. What do you think, brother?"

"Alright, hurry up and get up, brush your teeth, wash your face. Your sister has prepared breakfast for you."

"Oh, poor sister, because of me, she has to wake up early."

"Then why aren’t you getting up already?"

"I’ll go down and eat first, you take your time."

After her brother left, Candy didn’t dare to dawdle anymore.

In just that little bit of time, it was already 7:05. How did time pass so quickly? It’s completely unreasonable.

After breakfast, Candy quickly changed her shoes, put on her backpack, and waited to go out.

"Brother, hurry up!"

Looking at the time on her smart watch, Candy felt a sense of urgency for the first time.

Candy could never understand why her brother could spend half an hour on the toilet without his legs going numb.

"Coming, coming."

At the entrance, Zhou Yaling watched her brother hobble out of the bathroom, and couldn’t help but smile.

"Let’s go."

Under Candy’s constant urging, Xiaofeixia drove faster than usual.

At 7:43, Candy arrived early at the science park.

Two school buses were parked in the lot, with several kids already on board.

"See you tonight, brother."

Waving her hand, Candy supported her backpack with her right hand and ran towards the school bus.

As her personal bodyguard, Feiyan quickly followed behind her.

Little Grey, just off the car, wagged his tail trying to catch up, but Mo Jingchun held him back with a leash.

"Candy is going to school, and you want to go too?"

Little Grey shivered, then squatted down on the spot.

Watching Candy get on the bus, Mo Jingchun jokingly said to Zhou Yaling, "You believe it or not, within a week at most, Candy will learn to time her arrival perfectly for school."

"I believe it."

"Back then, we were inexperienced, running to school early and often getting caught by teachers to recite lessons. Later, we all got smart and timed our arrival."

"Yeah."

Mo Jingchun said with emotion, "I told Candy this morning, once she gets to middle school, she’ll envy elementary school life."

"In elementary school, at least you go home every day. Middle school is different; boarding means you go home once a week."

Zhou Yaling asked in surprise, "You plan to have Candy board in middle school? Second Middle School isn’t that far from the neighborhood, is it?"

"Ah, dorm life has its own advantages. We’ll see when the time comes."
