Chapter 293: Chapter 169 Little Fourth, You Really Know How to Give Daddy a Hard Time! [Large Chapter, Over 8000 Words]_4

After all, they felt that if their dad was always there to protect them, when would they ever learn not to depend on him?

The teacher had said long ago that one should try to become independent and strong, not to rely on parents for everything. Otherwise, one would never find it.

They didn’t want to be flowers in a greenhouse; they wanted to be a big tree in the storm, growing and strengthening by themselves.

They were about to turn four years old, no longer that little.

“All right then, you go ahead and ride by yourselves, I’ll watch from the side, and if anything happens, tell me immediately!” Ye Fan said.

Watching these kids, all eager to fly solo, he decided to go along with their wishes this time.

“That’s great, Dad!”

“Perfect timing, Dad!”

“Dad, I love you, hehe!” As soon as the little ones heard this, they cheered.

Their expressions were truly full of joy!

“Dad, remember to take lots of photos of us!”

“And mine, I want photos too!”

“Me as well, don’t forget about me!”

The little ones said excitedly.

“Sure, don’t worry, I’ll take them!” Ye Fan smiled.

Ye Fan lifted the children onto the backs of the ostriches, made sure they clung tight to the ostriches’ necks, and of course, he instructed them again. He also advised the ostriches, though it wasn’t clear if they understood, it was right to instruct them nevertheless.

After all, he had an affinity with animals; maybe they really could understand.

This was anything but certain.

After that, Ye Fan stepped back a little.

Seeing the children so happy, he felt that he should let go appropriately and let them experience things for themselves.

He tried to let them exercise some independence.

Before long, they would turn four years old.

Indeed, they were still children.

Ye Fan took out his phone and began taking photos of the kids.

Seeing how much fun the little ones were having, Ye Fan felt reassured.

Fortunately, nothing untoward happened.

Ye Fan took many photos and videos before putting his phone away.

Then, he took out the water provided by the System, letting the children and himself drink some, as well as giving some to the ostriches.

The air here was very dry, and the sun was intense. After all, this was just the outskirts of the desert.

If this were the center of the desert, it could end in a disaster.

Life here was indeed arduous.

Water was scarce, and vegetation was sparse.

They say the desert is dangerous with sandstorms, quicksand, and so on; it’s easy to get lost in the desert.

But they say camels never get lost.

‘Dad, Dad, have you taken the picture yet, why are you daydreaming?’ At that moment, Little Fourth Ye Jie called out loudly towards Ye Fan.

How did he start daydreaming?

What on earth was Dad thinking about?

Did he take the picture or not?

“Don’t worry, I took them!” Ye Fan responded.

This little fellow was so concerned about photographs, not the slightest bit worried about his dad getting tired.

Really heartless.

Ye Fan sat on a rock, watching the children play merrily on the backs of the ostriches, which were docile enough to carry them at a gentle pace.

Every little face was lit up with excitement, especially Little Fourth Ye Jie; this kid made the ostrich run fast, her small hands clutching its neck, her tiny body bouncing and swaying from side to side, a sight that alarmed Ye Fan.

This sight filled him with anxiety.

He feared that one misstep would cause the little one to fall.

Even though the ground was sandy with no rocks, a fall could still be disastrous; after all, they were so small and fragile.

To Ye Fan, it seemed Little Fourth was testing her limits dangerously close to the edge of disaster.

Ye Fan really couldn’t stand to watch anymore; it was torment.

“Little Fourth, make the ostrich slow down. If you keep doing these dangerous stunts, I’ll pull you down myself and never take you here again!” Ye Fan shouted.

This little one needed to be disciplined.

Hearing Ye Fan’s words, Little Fourth immediately grew fearful, promptly urging the ostrich to slow down. She hadn’t had enough fun yet, and she really did fear her dad might not bring her to these places ever again.

So, it was better to listen.

“Dad, I understand, I’ll behave!” Little Fourth Ye Jie yelled.

She was subdued; she would comply—wasn’t that enough?

Seeing Little Fourth’s reaction, Ye Fan was finally satisfied. It was about time.

Without showing a bit of firmness to this little one, she might well think her dad had no temper.

She was still young, and if not well-disciplined now, she could become even more uncontrollable as she grew up.

Just see, a single stern word had set her straight.

After a while, everyone except Little Fourth had dismounted from the ostriches.

Ye Fan took out the water again, letting the kids give the ostriches some to drink, for they had been carrying his children for a long time in such a dry place and were surely thirsty.

After drinking, the ostriches lay down, resting on the ground.

Little Fourth was still there, riding the ostrich and playing as if she wasn’t satisfied yet.

Ye Fan didn’t interfere, letting her play a bit longer.

“Dad, why are ostriches so big, and why do they live in such a harsh environment like the desert?”

“Yeah, the ostriches seem so gentle, but their living conditions are so tough; it’s sad to watch!”

“Dad, can you tell us about ostriches? We haven’t learned about them.”
