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

When Jinxi changed her clothes and went downstairs, she saw Zanzan, a little baby, lying on the sofa with one leg bent and the other little foot pressed on the bent knee. Dali was nestled under his leg, and Daju was sitting on the back of his foot.

The one puppy and two dogs seemed quite relaxed and harmonious.

Jinxi walked over, glanced at the television, and asked, "How long have you been watching?"

Zhou Yanqian replied, "I've only watched one episode."

He pouted. "I wasn't watching the whole time!"

What does Xiaoxi mean by this?! Each episode of this cartoon is over ten minutes long!

He's not the kind of kid who lacks self-control.

Jinxi looked at him pouting and said, "I was just asking casually, is that not allowed?"

Zhou Yanqian snorted, then remembered the phone call from earlier and said, "Someone called you and said they'd be coming for an interview at 3 PM on Friday."

Jinxi thought for a moment and guessed it was the sick woman from earlier.

Thinking of this person, Jinxi's thoughts wandered for a moment.

She knew that there were many similar people in the world, and many with similar voices.

But when I recall that person's tone of voice, I can't help but think of her mother.

Zhou Yanqian was lying down comfortably when he saw Jin Xi standing beside him, her gaze unfocused, seemingly lost in thought.

What is she thinking?

She seems a little sad (；′⌒`).

Zhou Yanqian silently shrank off the sofa, walked over to Jinxi, and reached out to hold her fingers.

Jinxi's wandering thoughts returned when she was touched like that.

She tilted her head slightly and saw Zan Zan looking up at her with pleading eyes.

Jinxi asked, "Did you secretly eat ice cream?"

It appears to be a question, but it is actually an affirmation.

Zhou Yanqian tried to pull his hand back immediately, but Jin Xi held it tightly, and he couldn't escape at all.

He knew it! Jin Xi and Zhou Linxu are the same couple, they both speak in the same way!

What's wrong with eating an ice cream? He's in his mid-twenties, why can't he eat ice cream?

The thought that he had just tried to comfort her made Zhou Yanqian feel like a complete fool!

Jinxi pinched his chubby fingers and looked down at them. He was being fed very well. She opened her palm and saw that the creases on the back of his hand were big enough to hold fish.

But these little fingers look especially cute.

Jin Xi couldn't help but chuckle softly. Zhou Yanqian frowned and asked, "What are you laughing at?"

Jinxi said, "I'm laughing because your hands are big enough to raise fish."

What kind of fish can he raise with his hands?

Zhou Yanqian looked at it for a long time but still couldn't understand it.

Then I heard Jinxi say, "Today, because it's your birthday, you can have that ice cream, but you can't sneak it next time. You have to ask me and Dad before you can eat it."

Zhou Yanqian reluctantly said "oh," and Jin Xi let go of his hand, picked up the charging phone and looked at it. Sure enough, an unknown number had called more than ten minutes ago.

She sat back down on the sofa, patted the empty seat next to her, and Zhou Yanqian snorted, still remembering the ice cream, and didn't go over.

Jinxi patted him again, but this time she didn't call out to him. Instead, she called out, "Daju and Dali, come here and let Mommy hug you."

Daju and Dali were lying on the sofa right now. As soon as Jinxi called them, they immediately wagged their tails and went over.

Zhou Yanqian looked at the two spineless, smelly puppies and was unhappy. He walked over and picked up Daju and Dali, one under each arm and carried them away.

Jinxi couldn't help but chuckle at his expression: "What are you doing?"

Then I saw Zan Zan carry Da Ju and Da Li to another single sofa and sit down.

Daju and Dali are already used to being picked up by Zanzan, and their tails wag non-stop. When they are gently placed on the sofa, they wag their tails as well, wanting to play with Zanzan.

Zhou Yanqian didn't want to play with them. He tapped each of the dogs, Big Orange and Big Lychee, on the head and said, "Whose dogs are you anyway?!"

Jinxi leaned back on the sofa and couldn't help but chuckle when she heard him muttering to himself.

So she was jealous.

Jinxi said, "I also bought dog food from Daju and Dali, so why aren't they considered my dogs?"

Zhou Yanqian wasn't going to listen, but Jin Xi said again, "Alright, sweetie, come on, let's play a game of Candy Crush together."

This time, Zan Zan finally acknowledged her, saying, "Alright then!"

Jinxi suppressed a laugh. This kind of praise only comes when someone gives you a way out; otherwise, you have to keep holding your breath.

This child has such a big temper yet is also so easy to appease.

Zhou Yanqian climbed back onto the sofa, leaned on Jinxi's shoulder, and watched her open the Candy Crush game.

The match-3 game is really fun. After so much effort from him and Xiaoxi, they've already reached level 1000!

He's gone to kindergarten now, so he plays less.

Jinxi glanced at him, deliberately making a mistake, when she heard Zanzan say anxiously, "You've made a mistake! You should have switched to the other one!"

Jinxi said, "It's okay. Even if we take this step, we can still get through. Don't get excited, be patient."

Zhou Yanqian whispered in her ear, "I'm very patient."

He's the most patient person in the family! He didn't even bother with those two devils, Jin Xi and Zhou Linxu, oh, and those two devilish dogs!

Jinxi squeezed his soft arm, smiling without saying a word.

Zhou Linxu finally finished his work. As he turned the corner from the second floor, he saw Zanzan clinging to Xiaoxi's back, chattering away.

He leaned on the stair railing with both hands, watching the two of them staring at their phones. At this moment, Daju jumped off the sofa, rubbed against Jinxi's raised leg, and then plopped down on the instep of Jinxi's foot.

Jinxi looked down and said, "Daju, it's hot, don't sit on my feet."

These two puppies especially love sitting on the backs of our feet, and they can even distinguish between people. They only sit on the three of them, while other people will at most rub against our legs.

Zhou Yanqian said, "I'll let them sit on it, hehe!"

Jin Xi raised an eyebrow: "So you want to sit, huh? Then I'll sit on your lap."

Zhou Yanqian knew he was in trouble and tried to crawl away, but Jin Xi grabbed his chubby waist and picked him up: "Stretch out your legs and let Daju and Dali sit on you."

Zhou Yanqian immediately raised his little foot high, chuckling, "I don't want it."

Let's see what Xiao Xi can do to me!

Jinxi said, "Alright, Zan Zan, let's see if I don't teach you a lesson."

Jinxi placed Zanzan on her lap and tickled his ticklish spot with her fingers.

Zhou Yanqian laughed until tears streamed down his face: "No! Don't tickle me! You're mean!"

Jin Xi chuckled wickedly: "Surrender!"

Zhou Yanqian twisted and turned, but finally couldn't take it anymore. He softly hugged her arm, his voice still tinged with laughter: "I'm not playing anymore, I'm not playing anymore."

Zhou Linxu stood on the second floor and took in the whole scene.

He couldn't help but laugh. Even though he was a year older, Zan Zan was still a silly little guy who was bad at cooking and loved to play.
