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

Jinxi took Zanzan home first, gave the lunchbox to the nanny, and then turned around and couldn't see Zanzan anymore.

She asked the housekeeper, Zhao, with a puzzled look, "Have you seen Zan Zan?"

Butler Zhao pointed to the basement: "They said they really missed Daju and Dali, so they went down to visit them."

Is it really because you want to be a dog, or because you want to avoid going to kindergarten?

Jinxi responded and followed him down to the basement level.

As soon as I came down the stairs, I saw Zan Zan sitting on the sofa, playing with two balls in his hands.

Daju and Dali have recovered very well now. Zan Zan is mainly taking care of feeding the two puppies. Jin Xi looks at the two puppies' round bellies, and they are much bigger than they were two days after they came back.

The feng shui of Old Zhou's house is really good for raising dogs!

Daju and Dali were playing happily when they saw Jinxi come down, and they enthusiastically wagged their tails and greeted Jinxi.

Jinxi bent down and picked up both puppies: "Oh my, such chubby little puppies."

Zhou Yanqian looked up and said, "They're not plump, they're very thin. Don't say things like that, it will upset them."

Jinxi was both amused and exasperated; she hadn't expected Zanzan to have such a strong bias towards oranges and lychees.

She said, "Okay, okay, I won't say anything more, good dog, cover your ears, I won't listen."

Zhou Yanqian snorted and threw the ball further away.

Jin Xi said, "Once they get used to the leash, we can take them up to play."

Daju and Dali are two very lively dogs. The villa is big, and I was afraid that the two dogs would not know how to squeeze out through some gap, so I never let them go upstairs.

But Jinxi weighed the two puppies in her hand and estimated their size, figuring out that they probably wouldn't be able to squeeze through the gap in the yard.

The two puppies are used to freedom and are not used to being restrained by a leash. We can only gradually get them used to it. After all, if you want to take the dogs out for a walk, you must train them and use a leash.

Jinxi put the puppy down and whistled at Zanzan: "Young Master, let's go get our schoolbags first, then we'll come back to play."

Zhou Yanqian said in a muffled voice, "I'm sleepy, I'll go later."

As he spoke, he was about to lie down on the bench.

Jinxi walked over and pinched his little cheek: "Why are you starting to act like a spoiled child?"

Zhou Yanqian did not answer, but simply closed his eyes tightly and opened his mouth wide, pretending to be fast asleep.

Jinxi had no intention of letting it go so easily; she immediately picked Zanzan up in her arms.

Zhou Yanqian felt himself floating in the air. He opened one eye and saw Jin Xi's smiling face.

Jinxi exclaimed, "Young Master, you're awake! It's 6202 now, you've been asleep for centuries!"

What a load of nonsense!

Zhou Yanqian was about to close his eyes again when Jin Xi said, "It's getting cloudy outside now. Let's grab our schoolbags and come back around 2:30. Maybe we can even take a nap together."

Zhou Yanqian was carried by her towards the elevator. Jin Xi said, "Baby, you seem to have gotten a little chubby lately. It's a bit tiring for me to carry you."

"Don't talk nonsense!" Zhou Yanqian said angrily. "I haven't gained weight!"

Jinxi immediately changed her tune, saying, "It's because the baby's muscle mass has increased."

She couldn't help but exclaim, "Little Zan, you must practice diligently in the future to strengthen your body. The future of Jin-style martial arts depends on you."

Zhou Yanqian wondered if he would be this tired in the future. He had to spread modern martial arts and manage the Zhou Group at the same time.

He looked at Jinxi and asked a question: "Can't you have another one?"

Why do we have to mess with him?

Zhou Yanqian was filled with worries about the future, seemingly forgetting that they were a contractual couple and wouldn't have children.

Jinxi didn't react at first, but after realizing what Zanzan had said, she was shocked: "Baby, why did you say that?"

Zhou Yanqian hadn't had any contact with the Jin family either! After she transmigrated, she replaced all the nannies, with Aunt Wang at the head. Now, the ones who remain at home are all quiet, hardworking aunties.

Moreover, Zan Zan is usually either in front of him or in front of Zhou Linxu. Given Zan Zan's indifferent personality, no one else has much of a chance to grumble in front of him.

That's strange, why would Zan Zan say that?

Jinxi racked her brains for a long time but still couldn't figure out where she went wrong.

She didn't say that, could it be Zhou Linxu?

That's impossible. Zhou Linxu isn't that kind of person. Besides, he clearly stated when he married the original owner that he would only have one child, Zanzan.

Besides, they're just boss and subordinate now, how could they possibly have a child?

Zhou Yanqian sighed: "I only have one, and I won't be able to do so many things in the future."

Jinxi: ?

Jinxi finally understood, and her feelings were quite complicated. She said, "Haha, so that's what it means."

Zhou Yanqian asked doubtfully, "Otherwise what?"

Jin Xi said, "What I said just now was an expectation I had for you, not that I really wanted you to develop Jin-style martial arts."

She thought for a moment and continued, "You're still young, and you're in the trial stage for many things. When you're a little older, you'll know what you really like, and then you can work hard to do it."

What do you really like?

Zhou Yanqian had never really thought about this question. In his previous life, he was quite conventional. He dealt with the bad Jinxi and those who bullied others, and then he joined the company to prepare for inheriting the family business.

The rest of the time was spent outsmarting the loading and unloading crew, and chasing girls.

Zhou Yanqian now understands that she doesn't like him and that her kindness towards him is just out of friendship.

But at the time, I couldn't understand it at all.

Jinxi felt that Zanzan in her arms had calmed down. She carried him into the elevator and said, "Okay, you can walk down by yourself now. I can't carry you anymore."

Zhou Yanqian snapped out of his daze, snorted unhappily, and still put his feet down.

His heels were on the ground, his little feet dangling from side to side a few times, before he finally couldn't help but ask, "What if I don't find something I like to do?"

Jinxi pressed the first button: "Then let's take it one step at a time. You have a long future ahead of you, you'll meet them eventually. Even if you don't, it's okay. As long as you live a peaceful and happy life, that's enough."

She patted Zan Zan's head: "When you go to kindergarten, your teacher will teach you, and you'll meet some good friends. You'll all play together then, won't that be fun?"

Zhou Yanqian said, "You just want me to go to kindergarten, that's why you're saying such high-sounding things."

"I'm wronged, Mr. Zan, you've misunderstood me." Jinxi said, "Children need to read more so they can understand things. Besides, you're not the only one reading; Dad and I will read with you."

"But when I go to kindergarten, I'm still the only one there!" Zhou Yanqian thought to himself, what kind of companionship is this?

"Dad and I will take you to school together in the morning, and I'll pick you up on my little green bike when you get out of school at 4:30 in the afternoon," Jinxi said. "If you miss Dad and me, you can call us using your Xiaotiancai (a smart speaker app) after class. We'll be there for you."

Zhou Yanqian wanted to argue back, but he couldn't win against Jin Xi at all!

Jinxi said, "Okay, okay, and I promise you, I'll definitely be in the top ten to pick you up."

Zhou Yanqian asked in confusion, "Why wasn't it first place?"

"Because other children's parents will also arrive very early. What if I don't get the first spot? Wouldn't that break my promise?"

Zhou Yanqian pondered, and it seemed to make sense.

Breaking a promise seems to upset him more than being number one.
