Zhou Yanqian, holding his little cake, climbed onto his special little chair.

The strawberry cake was small, but it was made very delicately.

He held his fork, first glancing at Zhou Linxu who was still busy, then at Jin Xi in the kitchen, who seemed to be fiddling with something.

After hesitating for a few seconds, Zhou Yanqian got off the chair again, picked up the small cake, and went back to the kitchen.

Jinxi is currently leaning against the shop window, scrolling through her phone.

Zhou Yanqian called out, "Xiao Xi!"

Jinxi instinctively turned off her phone. She turned her head and saw only Luo Botou Zanzan. Relieved, she asked, "What's wrong?"

Zhou Yanqian looked at him with suspicion: "You're posting those ugly men wiggling their butts again!"

Upon hearing his assessment, Jinxi couldn't help but laugh: "You're so young but so precocious! Something about what you said just doesn't sound right to me."

She squatted down and said, "You're not allowed to say things like that to others in the future."

Although she and Zhou Linxu were in a contractual marriage, in front of outsiders they were a loving couple.

If Zan Zan were to say those words, it would be really hard to handle the situation.

Zhou Yanqian muttered, "I'm not some kid who talks nonsense!"

Jinxi hummed twice: "Yes, yes, you're the most eloquent and sweetest-tongued child, so, little one, what do you want from me?"

Zhou Yanqian moved his lips, scooped a spoonful of strawberry cake with his fork, and held it to Jin Xi's lips, saying coyly, "Here's a bite for you."

Jinxi didn't expect that Zanzan came over to share with her. Actually, she had already eaten one. It was a set meal brought by Goldman Sachs. The three adults each had a small taste of one and left one for Zanzan.

At this moment, Jinxi felt a pang of conscience.

She said, "Thank you, baby."

He opened his mouth and ate the strawberry cake.

Zhou Yanqian pouted and said, "You're welcome."

Just as she was about to take a bite, she heard Jinxi exclaim, "Wow, this is so delicious! I've never had such a delicious strawberry cake before! Baby, give me another bite!"

Zhou Yanqian had no choice but to shut his mouth again and feed Jinxi a full spoonful of cake.

Jinxi exclaimed in an exaggerated way, "It's absolutely delicious! I'll just have one more bite, and then I won't eat anymore."

Zhou Yanqian puffed out his cheeks, but still gave in to her.

He scooped three spoonfuls, each one full, and after three bites, only half of the cake remained.

Jinxi calculated that the amount was about right, and said, "Thank you, baby. You are such a good baby who loves to share. I am so touched. Here's a kiss."

She hugged Zan Zan's little head and left a strawberry-cake-flavored kiss on his soft cheek: "Okay, go eat now, I'll fry you a big chicken leg for dinner tonight."

Zhou Yanqian slowly uttered an "Oh," and said, "Okay, is it fried chicken?"

"No, no, no, it's our old-fashioned fried chicken leg from China. It's so delicious! I was just watching a tutorial." Jinxi added, "Go to the living room, I need to start preparing for work too."

Actually, the aunt had already done all the preparations, but she still needed to get Zan Zan away first, otherwise he would realize what was going on. Jin Xi didn't really want to face Zan Zan's questioning.

Zhou Yanqian happily returned to the living room with his half-eaten cake. He sat back down in his chair, placed the small cake on the dining table, and gradually realized something was wrong.

Wait a minute, why is his strawberry cake only half left?

Zhou Yanqian stared blankly at his strawberry cake, which was now only half full. No, no, there was definitely a lot of it just now!

He looked up and glanced at Jinxi in the kitchen. She was humming a little tune as she put on her gloves, completely ignoring his gaze.

Zhou Yanqian couldn't even get angry now, so he could only sullenly and resentfully eat the last half of the strawberry cake.

Next time, he'll never be the one to share again!!! Xiao Xi is just bullying him!!

Jinxi, who was bullying others, didn't care what Zanzan was thinking at the moment. She started heating oil in a wok, preparing to fry a few big chicken legs for Zanzan to eat.

After the meeting, Goldman Sachs prepared to leave.

Zhou Linxu asked, "It's late, would you like to stay for dinner?"

Goldman Sachs said, "No need, Mr. Zhou, I have to go back to the company."

Zhou Linxu nodded slightly: "I'll need you to travel back and forth a lot lately. Once my leg is better, I'll give you a few days of paid leave."

Goldman Sachs was delighted. Zhou Linxu's offer meant he'd at least get a week of paid leave: "Okay, thank you, Mr. Zhou!"

He quickly packed his things, and Zan Zan moved over. He patted Zan Zan's head and said, "Uncle Gao is leaving, bye-bye Zan Zan."

Zhou Yanqian's head bounced like a bouncy ball. He said "Oh" and very politely, "Goodbye, Uncle Gao."

Goldman Sachs thought to himself, "Zan Zan has become more and more polite and cheerful lately."

If it were before, he would have just nodded shyly to himself and then hidden behind his father.

It's not just Zan Zan; in fact, President Zhou's temper has become much milder recently.

Just then, Jinxi came out of the kitchen. Seeing that Gao Sheng was about to leave, she asked, "It's almost dinner time, Assistant Gao, why don't you have some dinner before you go?"

"No need, my parents have been waiting for me to come home for dinner every day lately," Goldman Sachs said. "I rarely get to have meals with them."

Normally, he would follow Zhou Linxu to and from get off work, but recently, since Zhou Linxu injured his leg, he has been able to leave work on time.

Goldman Sachs gave Jin Xi a grateful look, then left excitedly. Jin Xi asked, puzzled, "Why is he so excited?"

Zhou Linxu raised an eyebrow slightly: "I don't know."

Then he went to check on Zan Zan, who was lying on the sofa frantically changing channels: "Zan Zan, come here, Daddy wants to see you."

Zhou Yanqian glanced at him and refused very decisively: "No."

Then she looked at Jinxi and asked, "Is my chicken leg fried yet?"

Jinxi said, "I've fried two. I came out to ask if you want some?"

Zhou Yanqian immediately jumped up from the sofa again and said, "Eat! I'm coming right now!"

If he had known it would be this fast, he wouldn't have come to watch the cartoon.

Zhou Yanqian skipped and hopped after Jinxi to the kitchen.

Zhou Linxu had no choice but to follow along, leaning on his crutches. The two fragrant little chicken drumsticks were being drained of oil. Jinxi put little gloves on Zanzan and put the fried chicken drumsticks on a plate: "Eat up, they're delicious."

Zhou Yanqian looked around; it looked exactly like fried chicken. He said, "I want ketchup!"

"Try it first. The chicken leg is already quite flavorful. If you want some ketchup, ask your dad to get it for you."

Zhou Yanqian decided to believe Jinxi, even though she had lied to him about half a strawberry cake, she was still a very nice person on a regular basis.

The two chicken drumsticks weren't very hot anymore. He took a bite, and they were bursting with juice. The salty and savory flavors, along with the aroma of cumin, exploded in his mouth. Although there was a thin layer of dough around the outside, he could still feel the soft and chewy texture of the skin.

Zhou Yanqian stood stickily behind Jinxi. How come Xiaoxi is so good at making delicious food?

I'm so confused.

Jinxi felt a head rub against her lower back and turned around to warn, "You stinky thing, don't get the oil on my clothes, or your butt will be in for a good night."

Zhou Yanqian, who rarely wanted to act cute: ...

Zhou Linxu suppressed a laugh. Of the entire family, only Jin Xi could handle this arrogant little brat.
