Lin Chen quickly carried Lin Xiaoxi into the room. There were too many people outside, and Lin Xiaoxi didn't like the noise.
The Yang family elder also brought his granddaughter in. His granddaughter was almost five years old, much older than Lin Xiaoxi.
"Xiao Lin, this is my son's youngest daughter, named Yang Kexin. Kexin... this little sister is called Xixi. Don't you always say you have no one to play with? You can play with Xixi."
The Yang family elder said with a smile.
Yang Kexin sized up Lin Xiaoxi: "Grandpa, she's too young. She doesn't understand anything, so it's not fun."
Lin Xiaoxi retorted unhappily, "I'm not little! I'll be three soon. I'm a big kid!"
"Then, Xixi, what can you do?"
Yang Kexin asked, "I can speak foreign languages!"
As she spoke, Yang Kexin rattled off a string of English, quite fluently. She had received elite education since she was young.
"I can too!"
Lin Xiaoxi started speaking English with Yang Kexin. Her English was even more fluent than Yang Kexin's.
"This—"
The elders were all astonished as they looked at them.
Yang Kexin was still understandable, after all, she was over four years old. If she had been cultivated bilingually since childhood, it was normal for her to be so fluent at this age. But Lin Xiaoxi wasn't even three years old yet!
Many children abroad, even with English as their mother tongue, still spoke haltingly, far from being as fluent as Lin Xiaoxi.
"Xixi, you're so amazing!"
"What else can you do besides this?"
Yang Kexin looked at Lin Xiaoxi admiringly.
She didn't want to play with little kids who didn't understand anything, but Lin Xiaoxi had earned her recognition with her abilities.
Lin Xiaoxi: "I can draw, sing, and I'm good at math too!"
Yang Kexin became interested. She asked, "You know math? Let me test you. What is three plus two equal to?"
Lin Xiaoxi was stunned.
She didn't expect Yang Kexin's question to be so simple.
"It's equal to five, Sister Kexin. This is too easy."
Lin Xiaoxi said in her childish voice.
Yang Kexin: "Then what is sixteen plus twenty-seven equal to?"
"Cough."
Old Yang coughed lightly, "Kexin, Xiaoxi is so young. How can she answer such a difficult question?"
"It equals forty-three."
Lin Xiaoxi said directly.
The elders were immediately intrigued.
Lin Xiaoxi wasn't even three years old yet. For children of this age, being able to recognize one to ten was already considered good.
"Xiao Lin, is Xiaoxi so good at math?"
Old Zhang asked.
Lin Chen replied, "Xiaoxi is almost learning junior high school math. She has quite a talent in mathematics."
He didn't hide it.
Letting the elders know how capable Lin Xiaoxi was would be beneficial for her.
"Hiss!"
Old Zhang and the others were shocked.
Not even three years old, and already learning almost junior high school math?
This was a top-tier math genius!
"Xiaoxi, let me give you a question. Try to answer it and see if you can answer it, okay?"
Old Li looked at Lin Xiaoxi with interest. He was very strong in math.
"Okay!"
Lin Xiaoxi nodded.
Old Li quickly said: "A spider has 8 legs, a dragonfly has 6 legs and 2 pairs of wings, and a cicada has 6 legs and 1 pair of wings. There are 18 of these three kinds of insects in total, with 118 legs and 20 pairs of wings. How many of each kind of insect are there?"
Old Zhang and the others: "..."
Old Zhang said unhappily, "Old Li, are you crazy? Xiaoxi is so young, you're giving her an Olympiad math problem."
"Even normal sixth-grade problems aren't this difficult."
Just as Old Zhang finished speaking, Lin Xiaoxi said in her childish voice, "Five spiders, seven dragonflies, and six cicadas."
"Daddy, am I right?"
Lin Chen kissed Lin Xiaoxi: "Yes, you're right, Xiaoxi. You're amazing."
Yang Kexin looked at Lin Xiaoxi in amazement: "Xiaoxi, you're so amazing. I didn't even hear the question clearly."
Old Li looked at Lin Xiaoxi in disbelief.
This question was not simple. Many sixth-grade elementary school students might not be able to answer it, let alone so quickly.
Lin Xiaoxi actually gave the answer quickly and accurately.
She hadn't even started kindergarten yet! By the time she graduates from elementary school, she will probably have finished college mathematics.
"Sister Kexin, my dad taught me everything."
"My dad is the best."
Lin Xiaoxi said with a little pride.
Old Li smiled and said, "Xiaoxi, you just said you can also draw. Can you draw a picture for us?"
"Okay!"
Lin Xiaoxi nodded without any stage fright.
"I can draw too."
Yang Kexin said. She had also learned to draw.
Old Li asked someone outside to bring watercolor pens, and Lin Xiaoxi and Yang Kexin went to the next room to start drawing.
"Xiao Lin, Xiaoxi has a strong talent for mathematics. With proper cultivation, she might become a top mathematician. Should I help you find a great math teacher for her?"
Old Li said to Lin Chen.
Lin Chen said, "Old Li, thank you. But let's forget about it."
Old Yang: "Xiao Lin, Old Li is good at math, he knows a lot about this area, and he can find a very good teacher for Xiaoxi."
"Xiaoxi has a strong talent, but she still needs a good teacher to guide her."
Lin Chen chuckled: "Old Yang, what I mean is, I can teach Xiaoxi myself. She doesn't need anyone else to teach her."
"Hmm?"
Old Yang was stunned.
Old Li quickly asked, "Xiao Lin, don't tell me, your math is also very, very good."
Lin Chen: "My math level is not as high as my calligraphy and painting, but reaching the top five globally should not be a problem."
"Hiss!"
Old Li and the others were shocked again.
This was mathematics!
In many people's eyes, mathematics was theology!
"Top five globally... I was too talkative."
"No wonder Lin Xiaoxi is so good at math."
Old Li said with emotion.
Lin Xiaoxi probably inherited Lin Chen's talent, coupled with Lin Chen's teaching, it would be difficult for her not to be good.
Old Zhang calculated: "Xiao Lin, you are very good at fairy tales, calligraphy, painting, basketball, cooking, medical skills, and mathematics."
"Besides these, what other areas are you good at?"
Old Zhang pointed out these, and the others were amazed.
They also knew about these.
It was okay if they didn't count, but this count was amazing.
Lin Chen chuckled: "Old Zhang, I don't know much besides these. Let me keep some secrets."
"Okay, these are scary enough."
Old Zhang nodded.
Old Yang asked: "Xiao Lin, you know so much, which aspect do you mainly plan to develop in the future?"
Lin Chen said: "My main job is being a stay-at-home dad. These are my side jobs. I haven't considered career development yet."
Old Yang: "Xiaoxi will soon be going to kindergarten, right? When she goes to kindergarten, won't you consider career development?"
Lin Chen shook his head.
"I plan to let Xiaoxi go to kindergarten next year. She will gain more from me teaching her than from being in kindergarten."
Old Li nodded: "Indeed, it's better for you to teach her. Xiaoxi is likely to become a top mathematician in the future. She can lay a solid foundation first."
The group continued chatting.
Old Li and the others were very enthusiastic.
The strength Lin Chen displayed was extraordinary.
Moreover, Lin Xiaoxi was already so powerful now, and in the future, she was likely to become a pillar of the country.
The rise of the Lin family was unstoppable!
Even in high positions, they wanted to befriend Lin Chen.
