Transmigrated into a wealthy family's stepmother, I raised the villain into a sweet child.

Jinxi touched the face mask on her face and looked at the father and son, who were working very hard.

It's only 8 o'clock now, and there's still an hour before Zan Zan goes to sleep. He can spend 40 minutes working on the puzzle. After he finishes, Zhou Linxu will tell him a story before bed, and he'll fall asleep on time at 9 o'clock.

It's possible that we don't need to tell stories. When Zan Zan goes to sleep, it's like turning off the power. As soon as he closes his eyes, it's like the power is cut off.

The three of them were quiet, even speaking in hushed tones, creating a very harmonious atmosphere in the children's room.

Jinxi picked up her phone, turned it off, and started scrolling through Weibo. She had actually checked Weibo in the afternoon, and most of the negative news about her had already been dealt with; her name was no longer on the trending topics, except for Jin Yun's, which was at the top.

Jinxi thought for a moment, then switched back to WeChat and took the initiative to contact Lu Xin.

[Sister Xin, I'm sorry to bother you so late, could you please send me Jin Yun's WeChat contact?]

She thought she would have to wait a while, but Lu Xin replied to her very quickly.

First, he handed over his business card, then asked, "Don't you and Jin Yun have any way to contact each other?"

That's not true. It wasn't that she blocked or deleted her; the original owner and Jin Yun weren't WeChat friends before Jin Xi came.

After all, one wanted to be a member of the family, while the other only saw the other as a servant.

The unbalanced relationship, coupled with Jin Yun's constant suppression of the original owner in the past, means that even though she pretends to be good now, the damage she caused to the original owner cannot be erased.

Adding to the matter of Zan Zan, now it's a real mix of old and new grudges.

Jinxi sent a friend request, and then replied to Lu Xin: 【No, I need to talk to her about something. Thank you, Sister Xin.】

Lu Xin: [You're welcome. I'm playing games with Yuanyuan right now.]

After saying that, she took a picture of Yuanyuan holding the game controller very seriously, staring at the screen on the TV.

Jinxi thought for a moment, then sent a photo of a jigsaw puzzle as well: 【Same here, Zanzan is doing a jigsaw puzzle right now.】

Every child's bedtime routine is different.

Jin Xi chatted with Lu Xin about the children for a while. In the Jin family, the original owner and Lu Xin had a good relationship, though not particularly close, because Lu Xin was a very nice person.

The only stain on her record is probably that she's taken a liking to Jin Chen.

Jinxi puffed out her cheeks and cursed the Jin family in her mind for another five minutes before she could finally vent her anger.

Jin Yun hadn't accepted her friend request yet, so Jin Xi wasn't in a hurry. She put her phone aside, but when she looked up, she met Zhou Linxu's eyes.

His calm eyes seemed to want to see right through Jin Xi.

Jinxi tilted her head and asked in colloquial language: Why are you looking at me?

Zhou Linxu stared at her red lips for a few seconds before he understood what she was saying.

He didn't really look at anything, but he noticed that Jinxi was holding her phone, her expressions shifting between calm and anger, and he found himself staring at her for a while without realizing it.

But just a moment later, Jinxi looked up and caught him red-handed.

Zhou Linxu shook his head slightly and continued to look down as he helped Zan Zan with the puzzle.

Jin Xi narrowed her eyes. "That President Zhou is really strange."

However, her face mask was almost finished, so she got up and said, "I'm going back upstairs, my face mask is almost done."

Zhou Yanqian looked up and instinctively asked, "Are you still coming down?"

Instead of answering immediately, Jinxi asked, "Do you want me to come down?"

Zhou Yanqian started acting coy again. Although Xiao Xi didn't help him with the puzzle, he was still very happy.

But when it came down to it, he found it hard to say it.

He rubbed his fingers against the puzzle piece in his hand, remaining silent.

Jinxi didn't rush him, and patiently waited for him to speak.

Zhou Linxu wanted to speak up for the awkward Zanzan, but Jin Xi stopped him with a look.

The two adults had just looked away from each other when they heard Zanzan whisper, "Let's work together, it'll be quick. You can come down now."

Although it was very quiet, Jin Xi and Zhou Linxu could still hear it clearly.

Zhou Linxu was somewhat surprised. Based on his understanding of Zan Zan, he would usually become a mute. He didn't expect that after hesitating for so long today, he would finally bravely express his thoughts.

Jinxi wasn't surprised at all. Zanzan was just awkward, but given a little time, he was still very willing to express himself.

"Okay, you and Dad go first, I'll be done in ten minutes." To show her sincerity, Jinxi even put down her phone: "Please play with Dad a lot!"

Zhou Yanqian responded with an "oh," his enthusiasm clearly rekindled: "When you come back, Dad and I will finish piecing this tree together."

As Jinxi walked towards the door, she replied, "Then I'll have to take a good look at the towering tree that President Zan and President Zhou have pieced together later."

Zhou Yanqian took a deep breath. He was going to put together two in a moment! He was going to show Jinxi what speed really meant!

He picked up the puzzle piece with great interest, and was about to put it together when he realized that his father had stopped moving.

When Zhou Yanqian looked up, Zhou Linxu was staring at the front door. It was really hard to guess who he was looking at!

He looked away with a hint of disdain, and as he continued to work, he couldn't help but wonder, "Didn't I realize in my past life that Zhou Linxu was actually a love-obsessed person?"

Zhou Yanqian couldn't help but say, "Your wife is gone, can you please stop looking?"

He came to his senses and then realized what Zan Zan had just said.

Zhou Linxu raised his hand and ruffled his little head: "You little rascal, what's going on in your head all day long?"

Zhou Linxu was unaware that his son had labeled him as love-struck, otherwise he would have truly felt wronged. He hadn't been thinking anything; looking at the open door was merely a subconscious reaction.

Zhou Yanqian sneered inwardly, thinking, "Feeling guilty now, huh!"

You can't even take care of a child properly!

He couldn't understand why Zhou Linxu would still occupy his bed when the two of them were already like this. Was this a hotel?

Zhou Linxu gave him no other response, only urging, "Two minutes have already passed."

What?! Only eight minutes left!

Zhou Yanqian stopped thinking about how the two of them were going to date and focused on making a promise. He had made a big promise to Xiao Xi and couldn't let her laugh at him!

But one person's strength is ultimately limited. Zhou Yanqian turned his head and said, "Hurry up and fight! Stop thinking about others!"

Now it was Zhou Linxu's turn to hesitate, wanting to speak but holding back.

In Jinxi's words, his son must have been thinking of something again.

Forget it, why argue with a kid? The urgent task now is to put the tree back together and get it done.

Otherwise, he was afraid that Zan Zan would be watching him breathe fire later.
