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

Zhou Yanqian was happy just thinking about those two red envelopes; so this is what it feels like to receive red envelopes.

However, he thought of something else and went to check the kitchen. His grandparents were cleaning up the kitchen and hadn't come over.

He asked in a low voice, "My grandparents gave me a red envelope."

Jinxi didn't understand why he was repeating this, and simply replied, "I know."

Zhou Yanqian fidgeted with his little hands, and finally said, "But, but, but I'm not your child."

Although he spoke very softly, Jinxi still heard him clearly. She hadn't expected that Zanzan cared about this, and for a moment, her emotions were somewhat... complicated.

Jinxi lowered her head and kissed his forehead: "You are my child."

Zhou Yanqian turned his head to one side: "I'm not."

His maternal grandparents are very kind, but he can't lie to them.

He wasn't Xiaoxi's child to begin with.

Jinxi smiled and said, "Grandpa and Grandma know."

Zhou Yanqian was surprised. He turned his head back to look at Jin Xi: "They knew?"

"Yes," Jinxi said, "They knew, I told them from the beginning."

Zhou Yanqian was truly confused at this moment. He originally thought that his maternal grandparents did not know his identity, but it turned out that they did know.

Even knowing he's not Xiaoxi's child, would they still cook him a whole table of food, give him a big red envelope, and still call him "baby"?

Why?

Zhou Yanqian was a little confused.

Jinxi scratched his chin: "Alright, Zhou Zan, if you don't want the red envelope, you can give it to me. I'll give it back to you when you grow up."

Zhou Yanqian snorted. "Wait until he grows up to return it to him? That's just something you can fool other kids with!"

He wouldn't be that stupid! What would be left by then? He probably wouldn't even have seen the envelope.

Zhou Yanqian said, "No, I want to keep it myself."

Jinxi couldn't help but rub his little face again: "You money-grubbing baby."

Zhou Yanqian said, "It was given to me by my maternal grandparents, not to you!"

Just a moment ago they were acting like they'd done something wrong, but once they found out the truth, they immediately turned into a spoiled brat.

How come I never noticed before that Zhou Zanzan's facial expressions change so smoothly?

She asked, "Are you sleeping at home tonight, or here?"

Are you sleeping here?

That's also possible.

He's not the kind of spoiled kid who can only fall asleep in his own spaceship bed.

Zhou Yanqian said, "Alright then."

Jinxi tilted her head: "What's so good about it? So, are you going back to sleep or sleeping here?"

Oh, it was a multiple-choice question.

Zhou Yanqian replied modestly, "You can sleep wherever you want."

Jinxi understood; he wanted to stay, but he wouldn't say it.

Why is this little mouth so unreliable, sometimes working and sometimes not?

Jinxi said, "I'll find you a T-shirt to wear as pajamas later, that'll have to do, okay?"

"Okay," Zhou Yanqian said. "I'm not that kind of spoiled child!"

Jinxi just clicked her tongue twice, not thinking so.

She said, "Okay, it's getting late. I'll take you to take a shower, and we can go back to change clothes tomorrow."

Zhou Yanqian thought for a moment: "When will he be back?"

It took Jinxi a few seconds to realize that he was asking about Zhou Linxu.

Jinxi said, "It's still raining outside. Your dad is taking the high-speed train back, and he won't be leaving until after 10 p.m.

It's past ten o'clock, that's really late.

He was asleep at that time.

Jinxi said, "Your dad still has some things to do, but we'll see him when we get back tomorrow."

Zhou Yanqian asked, "Isn't he coming to see his maternal grandparents?"

Jin Xi coughed lightly: "Next time, next time."

Zhou Yanqian asked in confusion, "Why next time?"

Does Zhou Linxu not know that Xiao Xi has found her parents?

Well, that makes sense. He's so busy, it's normal that he doesn't know. I'll give him a call later.

Jinxi pinched his smooth nape: "This is an adult matter, children don't need to worry about it. I'll go find you some clothes."

Zhou Yanqian said, "Don't pinch my flesh. Grandma said that children are precious and should be pampered."

Jinxi couldn't help but pat his bottom: "You're talking nonsense. Your grandma never said that. She said that children are for adults to play with."

Zhou Yanqian scoffed, thinking to himself, "You're the one who's talking nonsense!"

Zhou Yanqian took a shower by himself today. When he came out, he was wearing a T-shirt from Jin Dahai. The T-shirt was so long that it looked like a skirt, reaching all the way to his knees.

The neckline was also large; it would slide down to the left shoulder for a while, and after I pulled it up, it would slide down to the right shoulder a short while later.

It makes him look like a cunning little devil.

Jinxi is treated much better than him; Jinxi has her own pajamas!

When Yang Hongyan dreamed of her, she bought her some clothes and kept them at home, just in case she found them someday and could rest there.

Even the second bedroom is always cleaned; just put on a duvet cover and you can sleep comfortably.

After making the bed, Jinxi looked at Zhou Zanzan and asked, "Are you going to lie in bed now, or go watch TV in the living room?"

Zhou Yanqian said, "I'm playing on my phone here."

Playing on his phone is one thing, but he also wants to call Zhou Linxu. However, with his grandparents around, he feels embarrassed to make the call.

Jinxi said, "Okay, then I'm going to take a shower."

She left her phone behind: "Be good, if anything happens, just call your grandparents, they're in the living room."

Zhou Yanqian nodded: "Don't worry!"

He won't run around.

Jinxi left, but before leaving, he didn't forget to turn on the air conditioner for him. Zhou Yanqian huddled under the covers.

Although the bedroom was only the size of his walk-in closet, it was very comfortable and smelled wonderful. He tossed and turned in bed several times, as if trying to make the whole bed smell of his shower gel.

After finishing his tour, Zhou Yanqian picked up Jinxi's phone and called his elderly father.

The call was answered very quickly.

Zhou Linxu's somewhat tired voice came through the microphone: "Hello, Xiao Xi?"

Zhou Yanqian said, "I am not Xiao Xi."

Zhou Linxu said, "Oh, it's the baby. Baby, what's wrong? Where's Xiaoxi?"

Zhou Yanqian took a breath: "I'm at my grandparents' house. Xiaoxi went to take a bath."

"Oh," Zhou Linxu said gently, "I know where you are. Xiao Xi told me."

"You knew?" Zhou Yanqian asked in shock. "When did you find out?"

Zhou Linxu seemed to smile slightly: "I found out this afternoon. You have to listen to Xiaoxi at your grandparents' house and not cause them any trouble, understand?"

"Oh," Zhou Yanqian said, "My grandparents like me very much, and I haven't caused them any trouble."

"That's good." Zhou Linxu said, "You're the most polite child. Dad bought you a new toy; you can open it when you get home tomorrow."

Zhou Yanqian lay down on the bed and asked, "Aren't you coming tomorrow?"

Zhou Linxu hesitated for a moment, but still replied gently, "Dad has some things to do tomorrow and can't come. Besides, Dad hasn't prepared any gifts for Grandpa and Grandma yet, so it would be impolite to come empty-handed."

That seems to be true. Zhou Yanqian had heard his assistant say in his previous life that when he visited his girlfriend's parents, the gifts filled the entire trunk of his car.

If Zhou Linxu were to visit his maternal grandparents, he would at least fill two trunks, right?

Zhou Yanqian said, "Okay, let's come together again next time. My grandparents gave me two red envelopes, and they felt really thick."

"It seems they like you a lot," Zhou Linxu said. "Then you have to be obedient, understand?"

Zhou Yanqian hummed in agreement twice: "I know."

He was always very obedient!

After Zhou Yanqian finished speaking, he said nonchalantly, "That's all, bye-bye."

Before Zhou Linxu could finish giving his instructions, the line went dead.

He hesitated, then finally smiled helplessly.

It's quite rare for him to call himself, and his tone is so cheerful.

When he talked about those two red envelopes, his pride was practically overflowing.

Zhou Linxu turned off his phone, then turned it back on. His screen saver was still the group photo he took with his family at the aquarium last time.

He looked down at the smiling Xiao Xi and Zan Zan in the photo, and his tense nerves gradually relaxed.
