162 Dangers of the World
“Send them to school? No need. I will invite the best teachers back for them.”
Yun Ran had anticipated Mo Beiyuan’s reaction.
There were a few families in the Imperial City that lived together. There were many children, and it was not uncommon for them to invite the teacher back to teach them on a one-to-one basis.
With Mo Beiyuan’s ability, he could definitely afford to hire the best and top talents in the five countries to teach the two little packrats.
However, Yun Ran’s motive for sending the two children to school was not simply to let them learn.
“Your daughter has been chasing after the holy beast’s butt in the courtyard all day long. What she needs is not a teacher with extraordinary abilities, but a group of friends around her age. Your son is smart enough and has a photographic memory. He doesn’t need anyone to teach him at all. But don’t you think he should also try to go to a new environment and make new friends?”
Yun Ran’s words reminded Mo Beiyuan of the time when he was young. In the abandoned and remote old palace, there was only a blind old nanny accompanying him. Later, even that old nanny died.
He could only struggle to survive in the empty and dark hall alone.
Therefore, his childhood was filled with hunger and cold, and he had no friends.
Yun Ran saw that he was silent and knew what he was worried about.
“I know you’re worried that there are dangers outside. Your enemies must be keeping an eye on the two little packrats, but have you ever thought that with your identity, you’re destined to have endless enemies? Are Bun and Sweetcake going to stay in this Yuan Mansion for the rest of their lives?”
Yun Ran was of the same mind as him previously. She was worried that the two little packrats would be in danger after leaving the mansion. Should she wait for Mo Beiyuan to deal with all the enemies outside before letting the two little packrats go out?
However, after the incident with the elder of the Linxu Sect, she understood some things. Mo Beiyuan’s identity had determined that even if he did not provoke others, others would think of a way to scheme against him.
He had too many enemies, both in the open and in the dark.
She was afraid that even when the two little packrats grew up, they would not be able to clean out the enemies.
Take the Linxu Sect for example. After dealing with this elder, the people from the Linxu Sect would definitely be aggrieved and think of ways to take revenge on him. They could not defeat him in a fight, so they could only target the two little packrats.
In fact, in terms of danger, the current dangers could not be compared to the ones in the apocalypse.
Therefore, she felt that she should change her train of thought. That was to let the two little packrats have the consciousness to protect themselves.
“I’ll teach them well and let them learn to protect themselves. When the time comes, we can transfer some of the secret guards from the Prince’s Estate to the academy. I’ll follow them and take a look. If you’re still worried, we can test them first and see if the two little packrats have the consciousness to protect themselves.”
Mo Beiyuan’s mentality had also changed from feeling that she was joking at the beginning to thinking that he could give it a try as she said.
“How are you going to try?”
Seeing that he had relented, Yun Ran smiled. “It’s very simple. Since we have to prevent the children from being kidnapped and deceived, we’ll do some drills and tests.”
Yun Ran was confident in Bun’s vigilance and self-protection. As such, Sweetcake was the key test subject for this anti-trafficking and anti-swindle.
“Get a few unfamiliar secret guards and nanny over first and let them disguise themselves. Later, we’ll bring Sweetcake and Bun out and practice for real.”
With Yun Ran’s explanation, Mo Beiyuan understood what she meant by practicing.
Similarly, he wasn’t worried about Bun. He was only worried about Sweetcake.
“Would that scare Sweetcake? She’s timid.”
Yun Ran glanced at him gently. Wasn’t this father’s filter too thick? “She’s quite bold. Besides, if you don’t scare her, she’ll never know the dangers of the world.”
