Starry Sky Kindergarten was different from most kindergartens.
Most internet-famous kindergartens would raise their prices as they gained more online popularity.
But despite becoming a hit, Starry Sky Kindergarten stopped enrolling new students altogether.
Every day, mothers hoping to enroll their children would call and queue up, with over a hundred calls per day, not counting private messages online.
People from other cities even invited Starry Sky Kindergarten to open a branch near their neighborhoods.
Seeing the situation with Starry Sky Kindergarten, principals of other kindergartens gradually let go of their worries.
No matter how popular Starry Sky Kindergarten became, they were not on the same track.
Starry Sky Kindergarten only had one class with 20 students, hardly making a profit compared to their own kindergartens.
It was just a place for a rich heir to experience life, right?
If they wanted to enroll, they would have to look to Starry Sky Kindergarten.
What good would it do for parents to like Starry Sky Kindergarten?
When parents seeking a Starry Sky Kindergarten standard came to enroll, the admission teachers would sneer at them: "Then go to Starry Sky Kindergarten!"
Leaving the parents stunned.
Other kindergartens used this petty, triumphant way to humiliate many people.
But Starry Sky Kindergarten did accept some children.
Previously, Shen Wei had promised that each employee could have two enrollment spots to recommend students.
How they handled those two spots was up to them.
It was essentially an employee benefit.
The school bus driver had sold both of his spots.
Teacher Tang gave one spot to her mentor's granddaughter.
Ever since joining this kindergarten, the employees had truly dedicated themselves to its success.
Now that the kindergarten had declared it would not enroll new students, they didn't want the enrollment spots to bring more trouble.
The school bus driver's spots were helped to be sold by Liu Chef.
He sold them to his former customers.
These people had some connections and favors to call in.
Giving those high-class nobles gifts like bags, cars, and money meant little to them.
But offering a kindergarten enrollment spot was a novelty.
Especially for the now limited-edition Starry Sky Kindergarten.
The wealthy can't resist anything limited-edition.
Thus, after passing through many hands, one of the spots ended up with the Liu Family.
The Liu Family used to be in the steel and construction material business. Although not well-known online, they were one of the local old aristocratic tycoon families.
They truly had their own mines.
They had many sports cars worth millions in their garage.
The Liu Family's third young master had a 5-year-old son, Liu Chen, who had not yet chosen a kindergarten.
The reason was straightforward.
Children from such wealthy families no longer needed to attend kindergarten.
Even the most luxurious local aristocratic kindergarten was not up to their standards.
Sending a child to kindergarten would inevitably lead to envy and jealousy.
Young children especially needed to be nurtured closely.
They would typically have a private tutor.
But there were downsides to that approach as well.
Children need to play with their peers.
So the Liu Family patriarch eventually decided to send the child to kindergarten after all.
But he hadn't decided which one yet.
After considering options for a year, he had to make a decision this year.
This was a family matter unknown to outsiders.
So when a gift of an internet-famous kindergarten spot arrived unexpectedly, it was a pleasant surprise.
The third young master couldn't help but remark to his buddy: "These people are truly skilled at reading minds!" Even he felt inferior in comparison!
Without a whisper leaking out, someone had sent a gift hitting the mark.
As the third young master spoke, he was merely joking.
For them as the served party, their subordinates being perceptive was not a bad thing.
The more attentive their subordinates were, the more at ease they felt.
The third young master's buddy was Bai Lingqi.
Upon hearing this, Bai Lingqi raised an eyebrow.
Bai Lingqi asked the third young master: "So will you send your child there?"
The third young master scoffed: "What 'send'? I've looked into it, they're always showing off online!"
For the wealthy, discretion is most valued.
Clearly, the gift-giver had failed to grasp the sensibilities of aristocratic families this time.
Bai Lingqi said: "Why don't you give me that spot then?"
"Huh?"
The third young master narrowed his eyes and said: "What do you want it for?" A glint of interest appeared in his eyes.
Bai Lingqi replied: "Isn't it an internet sensation? My wife loves chasing trends!"
The third young master immediately refused: "No way, figure out a way to get one yourself."
Although he didn't understand this kindergarten, he understood Bai Lingqi.
That guy was too sly.
If he wanted something, it couldn't be worthless.
As iron buddies and childhood friends, the third young master had been tricked by him a few times before, so he was on guard now.
Bai Lingqi was speechless: "If you don't want it, why hold onto it? What kind of person are you!"
It seemed he had rushed this matter.
He should have been more nonchalant to avoid alerting the third young master.
After parting with his buddy, the third young master carefully researched this kindergarten.
He then discussed the results with his father.
A child's admission was a significant matter.
Although a playboy, the third young master's only child, Liu Chen, was dearly loved.
Even the most indulgent noblemen are filled with parental love for their own children.
After consideration, the patriarch said: "Go ahead, but get a bodyguard for Chen."
The Liu Family's children were all precious treasures.
Minor scrapes and bruises were fine, but they had to prevent any kidnappings or harm, eliminating all dangers.
It may seem like an overreaction, but such incidents had occurred before.
After informing Shen Wei's assistant, Shen Wei and her parents were surprised.
They never expected a prestigious aristocratic family they could never reach before to be willing to send their young master to study here.
But since they had accepted the enrollment spot, they could not refuse.
The other party stated they would bring a bodyguard. Otherwise, it would be like any other child.
Shen Wei said: "But we may livestream here, and faces could be shown. Is that okay?"
Of course, the other party readily agreed.
Because they had investigated beforehand, so it was not entirely unexpected.
The child was set to attend Starry Sky Kindergarten.
The third young master's grandmother was displeased and confronted him: "I don't care about your mistresses, but Chen is your only child. Why are you sending Chen to this unknown little kindergarten? What are you thinking?"
"Grandfather investigated it himself, and someone as smart as Bai Lingqi was eyeing that spot too, so it must be good. Didn't we previously agree to send the child to kindergarten?"
"But we said an aristocratic kindergarten before," the grandmother retorted.
At least it was a well-established kindergarten, which sounded more reassuring than some trendy one.
Mister Liu the Third loosened his necktie with a dashing air, saying, "That elite kindergarten is just ordinary! They're all the same. If the kid doesn't like it, we can always switch, no big deal."
What Grandma hated the most was Mister Liu the Third's carefree attitude.
She used to love his wild side, but now she detested it just as fervently.
However, there was nothing she could do, as the matter had already been settled in front of the old master. She could only resignedly accept it.
