Despite his reluctance, Zhou Yanqian was still dragged downstairs to sit.

Breakfast is ready; we're having wontons.

Zhou Yanqian ate the three-delicacy flavor, while Jinxi still had the bright red, sour and spicy flavor.

After eating and drinking his fill, Jinxi had the maid take him upstairs to change into his sportswear and also brought out his children's watch.

Jinxi looked at the children's watch with a puzzled expression. Why did the children's watch only have 50% battery left?

She had made sure to fully charge her phone yesterday.

Could it be that I bought a defective watch?

Jinxi pursed her lips, deciding to wear it for a couple of days and see if it was still like this. If it was, she would have to contact customer service.

That watch cost her a whopping three thousand dollars!

Although I now earn two million a month, three thousand still hurts my wallet.

Zhou Yanqian also changed into his sportswear and came downstairs. When he saw Jinxi holding the children's watch, his round eyes immediately looked away.

Seeing that he had come down, Jinxi stopped worrying about the watch and quickly put it on him: "Come on, let me teach you how to do a horse stance."

Zan Zan is still young and can only do some simple, basic movements.

Jinxi tried to take his hand, but the little boy nimbly dodged her.

Jinxi wasn't annoyed at all, and praised with a smile, "Baby looks really good in this outfit!"

Zhou Yanqian didn't turn to look at her, but went straight to the backyard.

After these few days of tidying up, the backyard has completely changed. There are many wooden stakes, and even a horizontal bar. One of the horizontal bars is obviously very short, clearly prepared for him.

A soft mat was laid on the ground, but it didn't seem to be of much use.

It was early, and the other servants had gathered in the backyard.

Jinxi stretched and said without further ado, "Come on, little Zanzan, let's warm up first."

Zhou Yanqian stood to the side, looking at her expressionlessly: "I won't do it."

Jinxi tilted her head: "Then I'll carry you over to warm up."

Zhou Yanqian closed his eyes, preparing to turn and leave, but Jin Xi was faster, grabbing him by the armpit and lifting him up, muttering, "You don't have a choice now, little darling, hehehe!"

Zhou Yanqian pedaled the air bicycle twice more, but Jin Xi lifted him up like a doll. He couldn't kick her and was forced to be carried to the open ground and put down.

Jinxi squatted down and said patiently, "Little Zan Zan, exercise can strengthen your body. If you exercise more, you won't get sick in the future and you'll be a super healthy child."

Zhou Yanqian closed his eyes, looking like he couldn't be bothered to listen.

Jinxi couldn't help but chuckle as she looked at him; she found Zanzan really funny.

He's still a little kid, but he doesn't talk much. Yet you can always read his emotions from his expressions.

Jinxi ruffled his hair: "After you finish exercising, how about I take you out to skateboard?"

skateboard?

Zhou Yanqian seemed to have become somewhat interested. The reason was simple: the skateboard reminded him of the cargo driver who cried at his grave, who all he did was make flashy little things to attract attention.

Jinxi knew he was interested when she saw him open his eyes.

A few days ago, when Zhou Yanqian, a little kid, was sitting on the sofa watching TV, she secretly noticed that he lingered on the skateboard for a few extra seconds.

She ordered two skateboards, one large and one small, online. They arrived yesterday, and Jinxi took them out to try them out last night. They were incredibly smooth.

Jinxi continued to coax her, "Skateboarding is so cool! If Zanzan learns to skateboard, he'll definitely be the coolest kid in the world, and no one else can compare to him."

Zhou Yanqian turned his head and looked Jin Xi over from head to toe. She was also dressed in sportswear, and her perpetually loose hair was tied up high with a rubber band, revealing her delicate little face.

She seems to have stopped making her face look deathly pale lately. Her face is bare, but she looks full of vitality and is more pleasing to the eye than before.

And she was looking at him with hopeful eyes right now. Zhou Yanqian thought to himself, he wanted to see what kind of trouble this woman was up to.

So he nodded haughtily: "Whatever you say."

Jinxi's face immediately lit up with a smile. She couldn't help but raise her hands to cup Zanzan's little face, gently rubbing it a couple of times, but then stood up before Zanzan became completely angry: "Alright, let's begin! First, let's learn to rotate our wrists and ankles..."

The sunlight fell on them; the older one was all smiles, while the younger one, though her face didn't show much expression, didn't miss a single movement, and upon closer inspection, her movements were remarkably precise.

It turns out the young master has athletic talent!

Butler Zhao kept this in mind and planned to have a few more tracksuits delivered in a few days.

Jinxi exercised with Zanzan for almost an hour. She originally thought that she would be doing more exercise as a bonus, but she did not expect that Zanzan would keep up with the whole thing without saying a word.

No wonder he's destined to be a major villain; he's been different from others since childhood!

After exercising, she was covered in sweat. After waiting for more than half an hour, Jinxi finally asked someone to take Zanzan to take a shower. When she came out of the shower and went downstairs, Zanzan was still not finished showering.

She looked at the maid standing at the bathroom door and asked in confusion, "What are you doing outside?"

Fearing the boss might misunderstand, the man explained, "The young master came out after I ran the water, and wouldn't let me help him bathe."

"He's been washing himself all this time?" Jinxi asked, somewhat shocked.

The maid nodded and said, "The young master is very resistant to us giving him a bath."

Since Aunt Wang was fired, everyone else has been working with their hearts on the line. After all, the pay for being a nanny at the Zhou family's house is much better than outside, and no one can turn down money.

Moreover, they could see that Jinxi, the stepmother, seemed to really care about this stepson, so they dared not treat the young master badly.

"But we also need to be more careful." Jinxi glanced at the closed door again.

It's really hard to imagine a three-year-old scrubbing himself in the bath.

However, Zan Zan didn't come out, so she started looking around the children's room again and discovered that there were actually many small details.

The room has almost all rounded corners, and there are things wrapped around areas that are prone to injury, seemingly to prevent Zan Zan from getting hurt accidentally.

Although Zhou Linxu, the father, rarely came home, he provided for his family to the fullest extent possible.

After observing for a while, she noticed the sports watch on the bedside table, which was currently charging.

Jinxi picked it up and looked at it; the charging seemed to be working normally.

Why is the battery draining so quickly?

Just as she was wondering what was going on, the maid standing at the door came over. She hesitated for a moment, then said, "Madam, if you're not going to use this watch tonight, you should take it with you."

Jinxi looked at her: "Is there some kind of explanation?"

"Shouldn't children be kept too close to electronic devices?" Jinxi looked a little confused; she genuinely didn't understand.

After all, she didn't have electronic devices when she was a child.

The maid replied, "It's been these past few days. The young master has been playing with his watch the whole time. I thought he would play for a while and then go to sleep, but last night I found that he was playing until around eleven o'clock."

Jinxi exclaimed in surprise; this was a possibility she hadn't considered.

Zan Zan was secretly playing with his watch?

This children's watch is the latest model. It can not only locate and make phone calls, but also connect to the internet to watch short videos and play games like Snake.

When she got back that day, Jinxi fiddled with it for a bit and casually connected to the internet. At the time, she didn't think that such a well-behaved child like Zanzan would secretly play around with it.

But as it turns out, even the most well-behaved child can't resist the temptation of a watch.

This explains why watches drain the battery so quickly.

Jinxi put down her watch with a complicated expression. It seems she still needs to intensify her training.
