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

Jinxi looked at Zanzan's mischievous grin and said, "Come here."

Zhou Yanqian walked up to her, and Jin Xi stood up: "You got up so early today, I haven't even woken you up yet."

She spun Zan Zan around with great interest, asking, "Did Daddy put this together for you?"

"I got it from the cloakroom myself," Zhou Yanqian said casually. "I even washed my face and brushed my teeth myself."

Jinxi gave a thumbs up: "What a self-disciplined little one. When I was your age, I didn't want to do anything."

She made Zan Zan spin around twice more: "Let me take a picture of your dad. This is the first time our little one has worn clothes, isn't it?"

Zhou Yanqian thought about it and realized it was true. When he first came back, his clothes had already been chosen by Butler Zhao.

Moreover, even when you brush your teeth and wash your face, someone is watching you, not to mention when you apply baby cream, it's either Xiaoxi or Xiaoxu.

This seems to be the first time he has truly done things on his own.

Jinxi cupped his face and rubbed it a couple of times: "Since you're up, let's go eat. Your Aunt Tangyun just messaged me saying she's already brought Zhengzheng over. Have some breakfast, and they'll be here soon."

Zhou Yanqian already knew, since Gu Mingzheng had called him.

Zhou Yanqian looked at Jin Xi: "How did Zhengzheng know my Little Genius number?"

"I sent it to Aunt Tangyun last night," Jinxi said. "She said Zhengzheng also bought a Little Genius phone and wanted your contact information, saying she wanted to add your contact information as a third contact."

When she first met Zhengzheng, she thought that the male lead and the villain couldn't be friends, but the more she got to know him, the clearer it became in her mind.

It's not that they can't be friends; these two kids are practically the best of friends in the world.

Although Zan Zan complained that Zheng Zheng was noisy and disruptive, she still brought him gifts. Moreover, this was the first time she had invited a child to her home to play, so the gesture was quite special.

So she readily took the initiative to help foster friendship between the two children.

When Zhou Yanqian heard Jin Xi say this, he thought to himself, "Well, we can't just give it to him so easily."

Besides, why was he the third contact person?

But then I thought about it again, and Zhengzheng was his fifth contact person, so it didn't seem to make much difference.

Zhou Yanqian said, "I understand."

"Let's go eat. We're having xiaolongbao (soup dumplings) this morning, your favorite braised pork buns," Jinxi said. "They're super delicious."

Breakfast at home has become more Chinese-style, and Zhou Yanqian was very satisfied. Indeed, Chinese people feel most comfortable eating Chinese-style breakfasts!

After Zhou Yanqian finished enjoying his delicious breakfast, he discovered that things were still bustling about in the kitchen.

That's strange. Weren't we going to my grandparents' house for dinner today? What's going on in the kitchen?

Seeing him looking at the kitchen with a puzzled expression, Jinxi said, "I'm baking some cookies. Take some cookies with you in your bag later, so don't buy any snacks when you go out."

There are many different kinds of snacks available outside, and she didn't know what Zhengzheng could or couldn't eat. So after asking Li Tangyun, she baked some small cookies so that Zhengzheng could eat one or two when he got hungry.

Zhou Yanqian was full and didn't want to eat any more cookies.

But not long after he finished eating, there was a commotion at the door.

Zhou Yanqian took Daju and Dali to the front yard and saw Zhengzheng climb down from the car very quickly.

He was carrying a small backpack, and when he turned around and saw Zan Zan, he smiled and waved, "Zan Zan! I'm here!"

Zhou Yanqian went to open the door, and Zhengzheng came over, opened her arms, and hugged him: "Zan Zan!"

Zhou Yanqian hugged him back, then said with a hint of disgust, "Alright, stop being so clingy."

Jinxi was a half-step behind. Hearing Zanzan say that, she couldn't help but smile, then patted Zhengzheng's head: "Zhengzheng, good morning, have you had breakfast?"

Zhengzheng nodded: "I've already had breakfast. Good morning, Aunt Jinxi!"

Li Tangyun got out of the car at this moment, and Zhou Yanqian obediently greeted her.

Li Tangyun smiled and agreed, then looked at Jinxi and said, "Thank you for your help today."

"What's the trouble? You should go and do your thing." Jinxi said, "If anything happens, I'll text or call you."

"Okay, I'll pick him up at four o'clock this afternoon." Li Tangyun has a meeting at the dance troupe today. If she hadn't brought Jinxi here, she would have taken her to her mother's place last night.

After Li Tangyun left, Jinxi looked back and saw that the two children had already squatted down in front of the orange and lychee tree.

Zhengzheng patted the puppy's head and asked, "Zanzan, which one is Daju and which one is Dali? They look like twins, are they a sister or a brother?"

"They were twins to begin with." Zhou Yanqian pointed to their legs: "The one with the white socks is Dali, and the one with the yellow socks is Daju."

Zhengzheng exclaimed again, "I see! Their names are also very nice. Did you name them?"

"Yes," Zhou Yanqian said reservedly, "I chose it."

"You're the best name-giving kid in the world!" Zhengzheng said, petting the two puppies. "You're amazing!"

Zhou Yanqian casually replied, "It's just basic operation, nothing to praise."

"You deserve praise!" Zhengzheng exclaimed. "My mom always praises me for everything I do, so of course you deserve praise for what you did!"

Zhengzheng chuckled to herself for a moment, then said, "No wonder your name is Zan Zan, it's super awesome!"

What nonsense is this?

Zhou Yanqian called out "Da Ju Da Li," and Da Ju Da Li immediately slipped away from Zheng Zheng's grasp.

"Huh?!" Zhengzheng looked at the big orange cat, Dali, following behind Zanzan in shock, and exclaimed, "That's amazing! You're practically the king of dogs!"

Zhou Yanqian then said, "Big oranges and big lychees, sit down."

Daju and Dali obediently sat down, then slightly raised their heads and looked at him in an incredibly cute way.

"Spin around."

"Lie down."

"Shake hands, this hand, switch hands."

Zhengzheng seemed stunned. He eagerly exclaimed, "I also want to shake hands with Daju and Dali!"

Zhou Yanqian raised his chin, and Zhengzheng immediately squatted down beside him, extending her hand.

"Hey, big oranges and big lychees, please shake my hand!"

The big orange and big lychee adorably raised their paws.

Zhengzheng: "Wow—"

Zhou Yanqian said, "Don't make a fuss!"

Jinxi stood beside them, watching Zanzan demonstrate how to "use" a dog in front of his best friend.

My good friend Zhengzheng was also very supportive, her eyes sparkling with admiration.

Jinxi turned her head and secretly smiled twice.

She watched the whole thing. She had just said there was nothing to praise, but then she couldn't wait to show it off.

This is such a hypocrite, Zhou Zan!

Jinxi sighed and rubbed her forehead in exasperation. "Is there any hope for Zhou Zantong to learn this arrogant attitude?"
