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

In the end, they didn't kiss because little Zan Zan started pretending to be asleep again.

This made Jinxi and Zhou Linxu laugh for a long time, which made little Zhou Zanzan pout, but he didn't dare to say anything more.

But the little incident passed by without much trouble.

The three of them not only bought picture frames, but also did some crafts together, including the currently popular Perler beads.

I've seen many short videos of this family, and I roughly understand what it's about. The three of them made three small keychains. Time flies like water, passing by in the blink of an eye.

Zhou Yanqian held three keychains in his soft hands as he leaned against Zhou Linxu, admiring them.

Zhou Linxu asked, "Do you like it that much?"

"I like it," Zhou Yanqian said. "It's very cute."

More importantly, he did it himself! Although Jin Xi and Zhou Linxu also provided assistance, he put in the most effort!

Jinxi said, "If you had told me you liked it, I would have brought you here to do crafts sooner. Next time Dad has a day off, we'll play with mud and make cups together."

Make a cup?

Zhou Yanqian had seen this place in his past life, but he thought it was dirty and never stepped inside.

But now that Jin Xi has said this, Zhou Yanqian finds it quite interesting, so he says cheerfully, "He can rest tomorrow."

Zhou Linxu lowered his head and said, "Tomorrow is Monday, I have a meeting."

Zhou Yanqian thought for a moment and said, "Then you can rest the day after tomorrow."

"There's another meeting the day after tomorrow."

Zhou Yanqian pursed his lips, now he was starting to get unhappy.

Zhou Linxu scratched his chin: "Dad has to work, otherwise he can't afford to support the two of you."

Zhou Yanqian thought to himself, "How much do he and Xiao Xi eat?! And we can't afford to feed them already?!"

He's utterly useless! This Mr. Zhou is no better than him!

Jinxi leaned her phone aside and chimed in, "On weekdays, not only does Dad have to work, but the kids also have to go to school. They can play on the weekend."

Zhou Linxu nodded: "From now on, I will try my best to spend one day every weekend with you."

They spent almost the entire day outside; apart from the aquarium, which was on the agenda, everything else was done spontaneously.

Zhou Linxu could tell that Zan Zan was in high spirits. Although he had an upset stomach and fever last night because he ate too much, he was a completely energetic child today.

Whenever Jinxi sees a parenting post online, she'll send it to him.

Actually, many posts are talking about the same thing: the companionship of parents.

He admitted that he hadn't done a good enough job with Zan Zan since marrying Jin Xi.

Now that the company has gradually stabilized, he wants to spend more time with Zan Zan. After all, while he was busy and overwhelmed by work, Zan Zan has grown up all at once.

Zhou Yanqian just said "oh", but his body straightened up silently, as if he wanted to lean against Jinxi. But the next second, his good uncle grabbed his arm and made him sit on his lap.

Zhou Yanqian:

He struggled twice as usual, then leaned back against him, asking irritably, "What!"

Zhou Linxu didn't say anything, but lowered his head and kissed him hard on the cheek.

Zhou Yanqian: ?

Zhou Yanqian: !

Zhou Linxu said, "Nothing, just kissing my dear son."

Zhou Yanqian silently covered his cheeks. Upon hearing Zhou Linxu's reply, he couldn't help but turn to look at Jin Xi beside him.

Jinxi, who had been smiling, stopped smiling after his look and asked, "Then should I kiss you too?"

Zhou Yanqian didn't speak, but just pursed his lips tightly and silently raised his other hand to cover his face.

He just wanted to say, could Zhou Linxu please stop copying everything from Jin Xi?

Just call him "Zan Zan" honestly!

Zhou Linxu interrupted his train of thought and asked, "So you still haven't answered me."

Zhou Yanqian was puzzled. What should he answer?

Jinxi added, "Dad said he'll try his best to spend time with us every weekend. Would you like to?"

What's the point of answering that?

It's as if you say you don't want Zhou Linxu to rest!

However, the two people were still waiting for his reply. Zhou Yanqian took a deep breath: "...Okay."

Answer me, answer me! I'm too lazy to argue with those two shameless people!

Zhou Linxu smiled, pulled away the hand that was covering his soft, tender face, and then lowered his head to kiss him.

Then he successfully angered Zan Zan: "I didn't allow you to kiss me a second time!"

Zhou Linxu said calmly, "It's fine as long as I give my permission."

Zhou Yanqian rolled his eyes, reached up and pinched his mouth shut again.

How come I didn't realize how annoying his great-uncle was in my past life?!

Watching the intense "confrontation" between the father and son, Jinxi thought to herself, "So Zhou Linxu's bad ideas just keep coming one after another. I really didn't realize that before."

She thought to herself, "Sure enough, a novel is a novel, but a person is a person; the two are not the same."

When I got home, it was still early, only a little past four o'clock.

Jinxi thought for a moment and then brought down the Lego castle building blocks she had bought before. This one had only recently had its "foundation" laid, making it a relatively complex and difficult set.

However, when playing with puzzles or building blocks, Zan Zan's attention becomes very focused, and you can see that his thinking is really extraordinary and very orderly. Even if he is slow to put things together, he will not make a fuss or cheat.

He's really a great friend.

Moreover, the father and son get along very well when it comes to assembling these kinds of things.

Jinxi felt like a genius, which not only improved their relationship but also helped Zanzan pass the time.

Just then, Zhou Linxu's phone rang. He answered it, said "uh-huh" twice, and then hung up.

Jinxi asked, "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing. Goldman Sachs just asked me for a document," Zhou Linxu said. "It's in the study; I'll go get it."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yanqian frowned deeply. How long had he been working so hard? And now he had to go back to work.

However, he didn't say a word, he just puffed out his cheeks and continued to build with the blocks.

Jinxi naturally noticed Zanzan's little expression. She thought for a moment and asked, "Is it important? If it's not very important, I'll go up and get it for you."

Zhou Linxu initially wanted to say no, but when he noticed her glancing at Zan Zan, he understood and changed his mind, saying, "Then I'll trouble you. It's on the bookshelf, in a file folder labeled 'Chengbei Development Intent Instruction Manual.' I might need to look for it; I don't quite remember where I put it. This intent manual is from last year."

"Okay." Jinxi said as she walked, "It's just a small place anyway, I'll just search it up."

Jinxi went up to the study on the second floor. She had been to this study before, and Zhou Linxu had a habit of organizing things. The file folders were all placed together, making them very easy to find with just a glance.

She walked over and opened each file folder one by one, quickly finding the one Zhou Linxu wanted.

Jinxi pulled out the document bag, but because it was placed at the bottom, several documents fell directly to the ground.

Jinxi placed what she needed on the desk before going back to pick up the few that had fallen, and then checked them to make sure they weren't broken.

Jinxi looked at the file bag and read out the three words printed on it with a puzzled expression.

"Zhou Jinming?"
