Teacher Wang calculated the price for Lin Feng based on an annual fee of 350.

Lin Feng shook his head. "That's too expensive."

Teacher Wang looked pained. "Mr. Lin, we've already dropped the price from 380 to 350 for you. That's a huge discount!"

"A little less than 350," Lin Feng said.

Teacher Wang asked, looking troubled, "How much less?"

Lin Feng thought for a moment. To be honest, he wasn't very good at haggling and had no idea what a fair price would be. But when you're bargaining, the lower the better, right?

So, after a brief hesitation, Lin Feng said, "300!"

Teacher Wang took a deep breath, though Lin Feng couldn't tell if she was faking it.

She glanced around and whispered, "That won't do."

Lin Feng nodded. "Go talk to your manager about it."

Huh? Isn't she going to try and bargain a little more?

Teacher Wang rose to her feet. "Please wait a moment, then."

Soon, the manager arrived, complaining incessantly.

"Sir, this price of 300 is just too low…"

Lin Feng cut her off. "320. Final offer."

The manager froze for a second before it dawned on her. "Uh, well, it's not..."

Lin Feng stood up. "If that's not okay, then never mind."

Wait, I haven't even put up a fight yet! Don't just leave!

The manager tried to salvage the deal. "How about... you add just a little more?"

Lin Feng shook his head. "That's all I'm offering."

The manager and Teacher Wang exchanged glances. Finally, the manager compromised. "Alright, alright. Let's write up the contract and issue an invoice. We'll do it."

She reminded Lin Feng, "But please, you mustn't tell the other parents about this price."

Lin Feng nodded, unsure whether the price he got was expensive or a bargain.

"I have quadruplets. They don't."

Uh, so does that mean... you get this kind of discount just for having quadruplets? That's not something an ordinary person can just do.

After signing the contract and completing all the procedures, the manager asked, "Will you be paying by credit card, WeChat, or Alipay?"

"Either is fine."

In the end, Lin Feng chose to pay by card because his phone was out of battery and he hadn't brought a power bank.

Holding the Black Gold Card, the manager maintained her composure as she instructed the finance staff to process the transaction.

Lin Feng signed the invoice slip, took the receipt, and put it away neatly.

The manager's attitude had done a complete one-eighty; she was now extremely enthusiastic.

"Consider this a trial class. Our annual members also receive a small backpack as a gift."

Teacher Wang, ever perceptive, immediately brought out four small backpacks—two blue and two pink. They featured the school's logo and were both compact and cute.

Lin Feng took them. "Thank you!"

"Don't mention it! If you have any needs, please feel free to let us know."

"Our class schedule is one session at nine-thirty and another at ten-thirty."

"There are three classes in the afternoon, at three, four, and five o'clock."

"Which time slot would you prefer?"

Lin Feng decisively chose the four o'clock slot. The babies needed their afternoon nap, and they would be awake and ready around that time.

The manager nodded. "In that case, please contact Teacher Wang for any future matters."

"Alright."

Afterward, the manager was called away to handle something else.

Lin Feng went to Teacher An's classroom, which was filled with the happy sounds of children's laughter. The babies were all having a great time. It seemed class had just ended, and the children were now having free time.

Zhang Yuxi came over and asked, "How did it go?"

"I got the annual pass," Lin Feng replied. "Five times a week, no classes on Saturday or Sunday."

He then asked, "How are the babies? Are they having fun?"

"They're having a blast. The Second Baby and Third Baby are having a great time, too."

"But the Third Baby is still a bit timid…"

Lin Feng looked toward the Third Baby.

The Third Baby toddled over to him. "Daddy, hug."

Lin Feng picked her up. "Was it fun?"

The Third Baby nodded. "Fun."

She shook her head slightly. "Daddy…"

It turned out the little bun on her head had come undone. Zhang Yuxi smoothly stepped in and braided her hair into two little pigtails.

"Class is over. Should we head back?" Zhang Yuxi asked.

Lin Feng shook his head. "There's still time. We can go for a walk."

The babies were having so much fun they didn't want to leave. This was especially true for the Fourth Baby, who kept looking back every few steps.

"Daddy, can I come play again tomorrow?"

"Of course."

"Yay! Awesome!"

It wasn't just the Fourth Baby who was happy; the Third Baby was, too.

「The next day.」

The Fourth Baby chased after Lin Feng, asking, "Daddy, when are we going to class?"

Lin Feng felt a surge of gratification. He never expected the mischievous Fourth Baby to be so eager to learn. But in the next breath, he heard her continue.

"Daddy, I want to play!"

The Second Baby followed behind him like a little shadow. "Daddy, the Second Baby wants to go play with the balls and the other toys there."

The First Baby nodded. "Daddy, the First Baby wants to go, too."

"The Third Baby wants to go play with her brother and sister, too," the Third Baby added, looking pitifully at Lin Feng.

"Alright, one at a time, no need to rush. After your nap this afternoon, Daddy will drive you to class, okay?"

"The teacher has a set time for class, you know!"

"We can only go at the scheduled time if we want to see the other kids and the teacher, understand?"

Seeing the babies' confused little expressions, Lin Feng explained further. "The teacher told us to come to class only after we take our afternoon nap!"

The Fourth Baby asked, "The teacher said that?"

"Of course! That's the schedule the teacher made!"

"The teacher also needs to eat her meals and get her sleep. She can't teach children all day long."

"She would be so tired! She isn't a robot!"

The babies all looked disappointed. But children's moods are fleeting, and they soon forgot about it.

However, as they were playing, they remembered it again.

The Second Baby toddled over. "Daddy, is it time yet?"

"We haven't even had lunch or our nap yet. No rush!"

The Second Baby pouted unhappily and walked away.

A short while later, the First Baby came over to ask the same thing. Lin Feng repeated his explanation.

Then, however, it was the Third Baby who asked. This was remarkable. The Third Baby usually couldn't even be bothered to talk, let alone string together such a long sentence. It was as likely as the sun rising in the west.

"Daddy, you won't forget what time class is, will you?"

Lin Feng was surprised. "No, Daddy remembers."

Because the Third Baby didn't speak often, her articulation wasn't very clear. That didn't matter, though, because Lin Feng had the Baby Talk Skill. Even if their words were mumbled, he could still understand them.

The Third Baby didn't leave. Instead, she asked tentatively, "Daddy, can you call the teacher to ask?"

The Fourth Baby's little head popped into view. "Maybe Daddy... forgot…"

On the surface, Lin Feng looked calm, but inwardly, he was stunned by his babies' actions. Much of the time, they didn't act like one-year-olds at all. He didn't have a point of comparison before, so he'd always thought his babies were normal. Now that they were interacting more with the world, he was realizing just how smart they were. Like right now... could a baby who was just over a year old really come up with an idea like this?
