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

Hearing the familiar voice, Zhou Linxu put down the photo frame and turned his head to look. Jin Xi had already walked up to him.

She looked at Zhou Linxu and asked, "Why aren't you in a wheelchair? It would be more convenient."

Zhou Linxu said, "I'm not that delicate. It's good for me to get used to the cane. There will always be times when a wheelchair is inconvenient."

Jinxi stood beside him: "What you said is not wrong."

Her gaze fell behind him, and she remembered: "Have you put the photos in your office?"

"It's all set up," Zhou Linxu said. "I plan to add a few more frames later, since it's quite empty anyway."

Jinxi thought for a moment and nodded: "Then I'll give you the photo album when I get back this afternoon. You can choose which ones to choose, and I'll print them out for you."

There are already three photo albums for Zan Zan now. Even if Zhou Linxu wanted to take them to the company and look at them every day, it would take him three or four months to finish looking at them all.

The two people were standing and chatting.

A little while later, the nanny came over to call them for breakfast.

Jinxi said, "After we eat, we'll go wake Zan Zan up. How was he? Did he sleep well last night?"

Zhou Linxu sighed and shook his head: "It's hard for him to behave. When I woke up, he was already lying across the middle of the bed with his legs on my stomach."

Jinxi couldn't help but laugh: "Tonight, after he falls asleep, I'll carry him upstairs to sleep."

Zan Zan's schedule is very regular; he falls asleep by 9:30 at the latest, while Jin Xi goes to bed much later than him.

Zhou Linxu said, "No need, lest he start throwing a tantrum again the next day."

Two bowls of hot noodles were placed in front of them; Jinxi's bowl still had chili and vinegar added.

Zhou Linxu became somewhat interested: "Is it really delicious?"

Jinxi asked, "Would you like to try some?"

Zhou Linxu hesitated for a moment, then finally nodded: "Try it."

He turned his head to ask the nanny to bring him a small bowl, but Jinxi had already pushed her own bowl over: "Just use your spoon and chopsticks to taste it."

Anyway, we haven't eaten anything yet, so it's all clean.

Zhou Linxu seemed to be slightly taken aback, then stopped calling for the nanny and picked up a noodle with his own spoon and chopsticks, then scooped up a small spoonful of soup.

Under Jin Xi's watchful gaze, he savored it carefully.

It tasted much better than I expected, and the acidity was just right. The chili oil wasn't very spicy; instead, it was more fragrant.

Jinxi asked, "How is it?"

Zhou Linxu said, "It's delicious. This chili oil is very fragrant. I heard from my aunt that you made it yourself."

"I had nothing to do, so I made something I like." Jinxi chuckled twice. "Actually, my dad's chili oil is even more fragrant."

As soon as she finished speaking, she realized that she had let something slip.

She felt a little guilty for once. Although she had never pretended to be different from the original owner, it was completely different to let something slip and for others to find out.

Zhou Linxu did indeed hear what she said. He looked up at Jinxi and saw her blinking at him. He pushed Jinxi's bowl of noodles back and said, "I also want to add some chili oil and vinegar."

"Of course!" Jinxi said, "You just wait and see."

She wouldn't let Zhou Linxu call her "Auntie" anymore, and she slipped into the kitchen by herself.

The nanny was tidying up when she saw her come in and was startled: "Xiaoxi, what's wrong?"

"It's nothing, it's nothing." Jinxi took out the chili oil she had made, dawdled around, put some in a small bowl for Zhou Linxu, and then picked up the vinegar bottle.

It took him a while to calm himself down before he went outside again.

Zhou Linxu was waiting for her.

Jinxi said, "This is enough. Too much chili oil will make it a bit spicy."

Zhou Linxu nodded: "Thank you for making this trip."

Jinxi said, "It's no big deal, we're practically family."

Running errands for the boss is a simple matter, and she was even a little embarrassed to be with him just now.

Fearing Zhou Linxu would press for answers, since Jin Feng didn't seem like someone who could make chili oil.

Zhou Linxu added chili oil and a little vinegar to his bowl of beef noodles, making them taste the same.

Jinxi picked up a mouthful of chewy, smooth noodles with her chopsticks, and stole a glance at Zhou Linxu across from her, noticing that he didn't look at her with any unusual expression.

She couldn't help but wonder to herself, "He probably didn't hear me just now, right?"

They definitely didn't hear it. If they had, they wouldn't have reacted like that.

Jinxi was relieved and happily enjoyed the food.

Little did she know that Zhou Linxu had seen everything she had just done.

When Zan Zan felt guilty, it turned out she was learning from Jin Xi.

The two, one big and one small, were looking furtively at people because they seemed guilty.

Zhou Linxu's lips curled up slightly; he actually knew that Jin Xi had a secret.

No matter how much a person's style changes, it will never completely erase all traces of the past.

Not to mention that Jinxi also knows martial arts, and judging from her proficiency, she must have had a habit of practicing martial arts since she was a child.

The original Jinxi didn't know these things.

Although he didn't know what had happened, everyone has secrets. Zhou Linxu accepted it well and had no intention of investigating the secrets. If Jin Xi was willing to talk, he would listen; if Jin Xi was unwilling to talk, he would pretend he didn't know.

Moreover, Xiaoxi is a good person with a good personality and the ability to protect herself.

Even after the contract ends, he is willing to protect her and ensure her a stable life.

The two finished breakfast around 7:40.

Jinxi said, "I'll go upstairs first to help Zanzan change his clothes, and then we'll leave."

Zhou Linxu needs to go for a follow-up examination, and Zanzan needs to have a children's physical examination; time is still very tight.

Zhou Linxu nodded: "Okay."

Jinxi went upstairs to the second floor. As soon as she entered the room, Zanzan was already sleeping at the foot of the bed.

Jinxi raised an eyebrow and took a picture of Zanzan in a large bed scene, intending to show it to him when he woke up.

Let him tell me for himself whether he sleeps soundly or not.
