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

It turns out that Zhou Linxu really did take him to work, and what he heard that day wasn't a lie.

But why can't he remember anything?

Even if it was something from a past life, if you think about it carefully, the timeline should be when he was around three years old.

The twenty-three-year-old soul cannot remember, and why has the three-year-old soul also forgotten?

Zhou Yanqian plopped down under the eaves, feeling a jumble of thoughts and emotions.

Daju and Dali gave up fighting for the toy, bit their tails and hopped over to his legs, rubbing against his trousers and whimpering, wanting Zhou Yanqian to play with them.

Zhou Yanqian snapped out of his daze, bent his back, rested his head on his knees, and rubbed Daju and Dali's heads with both hands.

Their fur is soft, and Jinxi wipes it clean with wet wipes every day, keeping it very clean.

Zhou Yanqian gently rubbed their little ears again. They hadn't stood up yet, and were limp like misshapen doritos.

When Jinxi and Zhou Linxu came out after their chat, they saw Zanzan like this. She laughed and said, "Baby, why are you sitting on the ground again?"

Zhou Yanqian looked up when he heard her voice, trying to find something on her face, but he still couldn't find anything.

Jinxi came out of the door and said, "Going back to build the castle? Dad has been working on it for quite a while."

Zhou Yanqian snorted, "I don't want to go."

Jinxi squatted down beside him: "What's wrong? Why aren't you going again?"

It wasn't that Zhou Yanqian didn't want to go, it's just... he didn't know how to face Zhou Linxu.

On one hand, she was angry that he and Jinxi held hands to deceive her, and on the other hand, she was angry that she seemed to have misunderstood him in some way in her past life.

It's all Zhou Linxu's fault!

Correct!

It's all Zhou Linxu's fault!

He's not the kind of child who doesn't understand things. Why would you have to hide anything from him?

Zhou Yanqian is currently in a state of impotent rage, venting his anger on the earth and everything around him.

Jinxi said, "If you don't want to walk, I'll carry you."

Jinxi opened her arms: "Let me hug my little one."

Zhou Yanqian glanced at her sideways, his two little hands continuing to lightly tug at Daju and Dali's ears.

Jinxi said, "Come on, I want to hug you. Stop pulling Daju and Dali's ears, they're going to fall off."

Zhou Yanqian loosened his grip and muttered, "I didn't use much force!"

He's not a real child who doesn't know his own strength; he can pinch them very gently.

After being released, Daju and Dali ran off happily. Jinxi said, "Come here, baby, I'll carry you to wash your paws."

Zhou Yanqian stood up, patted the dust off his bottom, walked over, and said reservedly, "I don't want you to hug me. You called me a fat kid."

He kept saying no, but I didn't see him walk past me into the room.

Jinxi let out a soft "woof" and forcibly pulled him into her arms, saying, "I like you even though you're a chubby kid. It's just a nickname."

After saying that, she gave him two warm kisses on his chubby cheeks: "I love chubby baby, cute chubby baby."

Zhou Yanqian turned his face to one side and snorted softly, "I didn't ask you to kiss me."

However, he did not refute Jinxi's words. Jinxi smiled and picked him up, but halfway through, he cried out "Ouch!" and put Zan Zan down.

It looked like it was too heavy to lift.

Zhou Yanqian's eyes widened, and he was about to severely reprimand Xiao Xi, this weakling, when in the next second, he was suddenly picked up by one hand.

He looked at Jinxi's face, all smiles, as if to say, "Is there anything you don't understand?"

I was just teasing him!

You naughty Xiaoxi!

Jin Xi laughed heartily: "You got fooled, didn't you?"

Zhou Yanqian ignored her and started acting like his aloof and arrogant CEO.

Jinxi carried him inside, but still earnestly explained, "Baby, as long as you are healthy, whether you are a chubby baby or a skinny baby, I can still carry you."

Zhou Yanqian picked at his hands without making a sound, tilting his head to the side, revealing only his ear.

Jinxi then gave him a kiss: "No matter what you become, Daddy and I will love you. But if you don't like being called 'fat baby,' I'll talk to Daddy and we won't say it anymore."

Zhou Yanqian touched his face: "Say it or don't."

He's not a petty person! Let him say what he wants.

Jinxi chuckled and said, "Oh my, chubby baby."

"snort."

"Fat baby, fat baby, fat baby."

"Hmph, hmph, hmph."

Jinxi laughed uncontrollably: "How come the numbers match up?"

She carried Zan Zan into the bathroom, let Zan Zan wash his hands, and Zhou Yanqian stood on a small stool, pretending to ask casually, "What are Grandpa and the others doing here?"

"We've come to visit your father," Jinxi said. "Don't worry about it."

Zhou Yanqian thought to himself, "They're starting to lie to kids again."

However, he calmed down now and realized that this was not the time to talk about these things.

Even if I told him, what could he do?

Zhou Yanqian recalled his previous life; he had hardly ever met the Zhou family, and when they did meet, it was only occasionally...

Sometimes they wouldn't see each other for an entire year. By the time he took over the Zhou Group, the other Zhou family members either held minor positions within the group or had been relegated to managing unimportant companies.

No one can threaten his position anymore. Zhou Linxu has made countless efforts behind the scenes to enable him to sit so smoothly in the position of decision-maker of the Zhou Group.

Zhou Yanqian felt frustrated again. He had never known this before, only that Zhou Linxu was very busy.

Jinxi noticed Zanzan's downcast mood. She bent down and asked softly, "What's wrong, Zanzan? Why are you suddenly so unhappy?"

"I'm not upset." Zhou Yanqian puffed out his cheeks. "When will Dad be better?"

"About a month," Jinxi said. "It's not that serious. A month of rest and recuperation will do the trick."

Jinxi ruffled his thick hair: "Alright, let's go build the castle."

Zhou Yanqian nodded and followed Jin Xi out.

Zhou Linxu looked at Zanzan and asked gently, "What's wrong?"

Who has offended Bigzan this time?

Zhou Yanqian lowered his head, looking at his leg immobilized by a cast, and after thinking for a while, he made a plan: "Tomorrow, we'll eat pig's trotters."

Zhou Linxu hummed in agreement: "Didn't we just eat?"

Why are you craving something again?

Zhou Yanqian: ...

Haven't you heard of the saying "you are what you eat"? Idiot!

Zhou Yanqian simply ignored him. Jin Xi walked over and said, "Okay, I'll buy some more chicken legs tomorrow and fry some chicken for the baby."

After saying that, she turned her head and said to Zhou Linxu, "Baby means that you should eat what you need to nourish, so that your leg can get better soon."

After hearing Jin Xi's words, Zhou Yanqian scoffed, but then felt it wasn't enough and added, "You're incredibly stupid!"

Zhou Linxu said innocently, "I'm at home right now."

Zhou Yanqian stomped his feet in anger.

Jinxi couldn't help but laugh, but as soon as Zanzan looked over, she pursed her lips tightly.

That was close.

She was almost the one he was stomping on.
