707 Everyone Got Their Chance
In the end, Fu Chen left the basketball court with his arms sore.
Although he was used to carrying his younger siblings before, carrying them with his arms stretched up high just to let them experience scoring a basketball was a different thing.
A few of them were already big enough and heavier.
What he did not expect was that his sister, Fu Ying would also request for him to lift her up. This girl was Bai Xiang’s age.
However, not carrying her up did not feel right either. Fu Chen did not want to make any of his siblings feel left out. In the end, everyone got their chance and leave the basketball court feeling extremely happy.
Bai Xiang tugged at his aunt’s sleeve and reminded her that they should go and get their ice cream.
Coincidentally, Fu Chen’s siblings heard his words and they too began to urge their brother to treat them to some ice cream.
Fu Chen stared at the siblings helplessly.
Once their brother gave them the green light, the other kids started to line up and listened to Bai Xiang as he led them to the ice cream shop.

Bai Jing Jing held her brothers’ hands on both sides as they made their way to the shop. Her steps were slow, but everyone did not seem to mind walking along with the babies.
Once they arrived at the ice cream shop, Bai Xi Xi lifted her niece in her arms and the two of them were looking at the ice cream together.
Bai Jing Jing saw the colorful ice creams and her mouth started to drool. She wondered if it was possible for her to eat every flavor.
“Jing Jing, let’s get a cup and you’ll share with me, alright?” Bai Xi Xi spoke. “Alright. I’ll let you choose this time.”
Bai Jing Jing only saw her favorite pink color and pointed at the strawberry-flavored ice cream. Once they had made their choices, Bai Xi Xi stood at the side and waited for everyone to make their choices.
She took out her phone, wanting to pay for everyone’s ice cream. After all, Fu Chen had already treated her to some ice cream a few times.
Just as everyone had made their choices, Bai Xi Xi made her way to the counter to pay. However, Fu Chen was still a little faster. Before Bai Xi Xi could let the staff scan her code, Fu Chen had already flashed his code at the counter.
With a beep, the transaction was done and the receipt came out.
Bai Xi Xi stared at the tall man in disbelief. “Fu Chen!”
Fu Chen turned to look at the girl while putting on an innocent look on his face. He was pretending as if he did not see that Bai Xi Xi was going to pay for their ice cream. “Class Monitor?” He looked at his phone and announced, “Oh. I already paid for everyone’s ice cream.”
The man acted so casually that it made Bai Xi Xi gritted her teeth in frustration. Somehow, she had a feeling that Fu Chen was being deliberate.
“Aunt?” Bai Jing Jing saw that her aunt’s expression was not right and started to worry that she had done something that would make her aunt angry.
Bai Jing Jing had never seen her aunt getting angry before. Even when she was a little naughty, her aunt would never get angry with her. Her aunt would only explain that what she did was wrong.
Hearing the little girl’s voice snapped Bai Xi Xi out of her thought. She inhaled a deep breath and decided to let this matter go as the kids were still around.
However, she had to calculate the bill and return the money to Fu Chen. She considered transferring her money to him. But the last time, Fu Chen was not willing to accept her money.
“Alright. Jing Jing, let’s go and eat our ice cream, alright?” Bai Xi Xi spoke to the little girl before she also walked out to join the other kids.
With Bai Xiang leading them, the kids had quickly chosen a long table for everyone to sit around.
Fu Chen heaved a breath of relief when he saw that Bai Xi Xi was not angry. The corner of his lips turned up into a smile as he recalled the furious look on Bai Xi Xi’s face upon learning that he had paid for their ice creams.
He thought that a furious Bai Xi Xi was just as cute as when she had a smile on her face.
Picking up his cup, Fu Chen headed out to join the others as well. He sat down, surrounded by his siblings. Meanwhile, Bai Xi Xi was with her niece and nephews.
Fu Chen watched as Bai Xi Xi fed the little girl some ice cream for a while.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBai Jing Jing was having a lot of fun. Other than sharing ice cream with her aunt, her brothers would also let her taste different flavors. It was the first time that she get to eat many flavors at once.
Fu Chen had a smile on his face as he watched this scene. He still thought that Bai Xi Xi was the gentlest when she was around kids.
After watching her for a while, Fu Chen could sense that someone was looking at him, Fu Chen retracted his gaze and looked around.
His gaze met with Zhang Qi Lin who was staring at him curiously.
Somehow, he felt a little embarrassed by the way Zhang Qi Lin was looking at him. It felt as if he was caught doing something bad.
Fu Chen coughed to get rid of the strange feeling.
Soon, everyone finished their ice creams and wanted to play at the playground again.
While Bai Xiang and Zhang Qi Lin played with the other kids, Bai Xi Xi accompanied her niece to try the swing.
Bai Jing Jing seemed to enjoy as the breeze blew to her face.
Just then, Fu Chen walked over and stopped beside her. “Class Monitor, I have thought about what you said to me the last time.”
Bai Xi Xi raised her head when she heard him speaking to her.
“I’m going to ask them to let me join the basketball team.”
