Just as Jinxi had expected, Zanzan couldn't smile anymore after getting into the car.

He frowned as he looked at Zhou Linxu's leg, which was in a cast.

I thought it was just a fall, but I didn't expect it to be this serious!

He solemnly reached out and carefully touched the plaster cast, but then pursed his lips and said nothing.

Looking at him like this, Zhou Linxu thought to himself, "It's good that he listened to Xiao Xi and came back."

He said, "I'm fine."

Zhou Yanqian only said "Oh," and silently withdrew his little hand. The next second, Zhou Linxu lifted him up and made him sit on his good lap: "How was kindergarten today?"

"It's alright," Zhou Yanqian replied, then looked to leave.

She didn't care why he hadn't come to pick her up at the door. He was already so badly injured, yet he still thought of coming to pick her up; that was already quite an achievement.

Even if she harbored a lot of resentment towards Zhou Linxu, it all disappeared at this moment.

But Zhou Linxu hugged him tightly: "Dad hasn't finished asking yet."

Zhou Yanqian couldn't bring himself to say anything softer, so he simply said, "I can hear you talking even if I'm sitting in the car."

Zhou Linxu tiptoed and bounced Zan Zan up a little: "But Daddy wants to hug you."

……well.

How come Zhou Yanqian never noticed before that Zhou Linxu was actually quite clingy? He can spout such sweet nothings so fluently; it's obvious who taught him.

Zhou Yanqian didn't dare to move at this moment, for fear of hurting his other leg.

He tilted his head to look at Zhou Linxu, his mind racing, and asked in confusion, "How did you fall?"

Zhou Linxu had already prepared his explanation. He said, "You weren't looking carefully at the steps when you were talking to someone, and you slipped. From now on, you need to be careful when you walk, especially when you're going from a high place to a low place. You need to watch your step carefully, otherwise, with your little arms and legs, it will break your father's and Xiaoxi's hearts if you fall."

Zhou Yanqian thought to himself, "Anyone would feel sorry for someone if they fell, right?"

However, he just puffed out his cheeks and didn't say anything.

Jinxi chimed in, "Yes, you should be careful when you play with your friends at kindergarten so you don't fall down. It hurts when you fall."

Zhou Yanqian then replied, "I understand."

But upon closer inspection, that doesn't make sense either.

Where would the Zhou Group get staircases? It's all elevators. Isn't Zhou Linxu at the company today?

He looked at Zhou Linxu again and asked, "Which staircase did you fall on?"

Zhou Linxu was stunned for a moment, never expecting that Zanzan would actually ask further questions.

But Jinxi reacted quickly: "Baby, what did you eat for lunch today while your dad was out socializing?"

Zhou Yanqian answered her honestly.

Jinxi pinched his little face: "Hmm, it sounds delicious. Tonight we're having seafood and curry beef."

Seafood? Seafood is great, he really likes to eat seafood.

Curry beef? That's fine too. I haven't had curry much, I've forgotten what it tastes like.

Seeing that Zan Zan didn't continue to ask why she fell, Jin Xi and Zhou Linxu exchanged a glance and tacitly changed the subject, determined not to steer the conversation toward her injury.

Zhou Yanqian looked at Xiao Xi and then at Xiao Xu. What else was there that he didn't know?

These two are hiding something from him, and it must be related to Zhou Linxu's injury.

He had noticed Zhou Linxu's brief pause when he pressed for answers, and Jin Xi quickly followed up, as if neither of them wanted him to know the specific reason.

Generally, when the real reason is concealed, there's something more serious going on.

Zhou Yanqian tried hard to recall his past life, and he actually remembered something.

When he was four years old, Zhou Linxu was not around. He had Goldman Sachs and his secretary send him a birthday present, but he himself only made a phone call to him.

He had already been away on a business trip for a month at that time.

And soon it will be his fourth birthday.

Zhou Yanqian then realized that Zhou Linxu might have been injured at this time in his previous life.

Zhou Linxu always brought an assistant with him on business trips, and Goldman Sachs practically followed him around.

If Zhou Linxu is busy, Goldman Sachs will definitely be busy too, and it's impossible for them to be there for him on time for his birthday.

After Zhou Yanqian figured it out, he felt a little upset.

So, what exactly happened?

But neither of them will say anything; we'll just have to wait and see if we can overhear anything later.

Sigh, now he's actually stooped to eavesdropping.

Life is truly not going well.

Upon arriving home, Jinxi got out first, took the wheelchair out of the trunk, and then held it out to Zhou Linxu.

Zhou Linxu glanced at it, and finally placed his hand on it, which was immediately grasped tightly by Jin Xi.

Jinxi said softly, "Slow down, no rush."

Zhou Linxu hummed in agreement, and with her help, stood up, then was helped to sit down by Jin Xi.

Even Zan Zan obediently held onto the wheelchair handles, wanting to lend a hand.

No one expected Zhou Linxu to get injured. He had been busy adjusting work arrangements at the company all day, and Goldman Sachs had been following him around. They hadn't had time to choose a wheelchair and crutches yet. They would only have time to go and pick them out after Zhou Linxu returned. They would have to wait a while for them to be delivered.

Seeing that he was seated, Jinxi pushed him inside.

Zhou Linxu wasn't used to it, but he quickly adjusted and tilted his head, saying, "I'm heavy, let Uncle Li push me."

Jinxi said, "It's no big deal, no need to call Uncle Li."

Seeing Zhou Linxu tilting his head, she added, "Besides, I'm just using your strength, not carrying you in. Even if you asked me to carry you in, I couldn't lift you. The only one who can carry you right now is Zan Zan."

Zhou Yanqian was caught off guard when Jin Xi mentioned him and replied seriously, "I can't carry him, he'll flatten me."

What is his current body type? What is Zhou Linxu's body type?

Are you kidding me?

Jin Xi and Zhou Linxu couldn't help but laugh.

Zhou Yanqian couldn't understand why they were laughing when he was telling the truth.

He laughed so hard he became angry again, so he simply went back to the living room to play with Daju and Dali. He didn't know if Daju and Dali missed him since he hadn't been there all day.

Jinxi said, "Your son is so easily teased; he ran off before I even finished speaking."

"It's much better now," Zhou Linxu said. "At least they didn't kick us twice before going in."

She laughed so hard that she upset the kid.

Back in the living room, Zan Zan had already met up with Da Ju and Da Li.

Zhou Yanqian squatted down, and the two gas cylinder puppies stood on their front paws, trying to burrow into his arms, both wanting him to hold them. Moreover, they had been eating a lot recently and were quite strong. Before he knew it, he sat down on the ground with a thud.

Jinxi didn't notice that Zanzan was "pounced" on by two puppies.

She advised, "Don't sit on the floor, sit on the sofa."

Zhou Yanqian silently got up and tugged at the ears of Daju and Dali with both hands at the same time.

They're just two silly little dogs!!
