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

Upon hearing Jin Xi's question, Zhou Linxu got up and walked over, not holding back his praise: "Beautiful, like a fairy."

Jinxi's face flushed slightly from the praise: "Oh my, Xiaoxu, where did you go to learn how to use your mouth? I'm getting a little embarrassed listening to you."

"Don't be shy, you're the prettiest in the family anyway." Zhou Linxu's eyebrows relaxed, and he glanced at the things Jin Xi was carrying. He said, "Let me help you put them on."

It was a watch he gave me.

Jinxi handed him the watch, then waved her other hand, asking, "Does it look good?"

She just looked around the jewelry counter and thought this white jade bracelet was very beautiful.

She couldn't remember exactly when she bought it, only that she hadn't worn it before, but it matched her dress perfectly today.

Zhou Linxu carefully put the watch on her wrist. His gaze fell on her right hand. Jin Xi's skin was very fair, and the white jade made her skin look even more delicate.

His Adam's apple bobbed as he restrained himself and looked away.

"Mmm." Zhou Linxu's voice was somewhat muffled: "...It looks good."

The watch strap buckle clicked softly, indicating that it was properly fastened.

Zhou Yanqian arrived at that moment, and upon meeting Jinxi's gaze, he immediately exclaimed, "Mommy, you're so beautiful!"

Jinxi laughed twice, bent down slightly to rub his cheeks, and kissed him on both sides: "Mommy's good boy, you actually speak such truths!"

With their family time over, Jinxi exclaimed, "Let's go!"

Zhou Yanqian took her hand and repeated, "Let's go~"

The two of them then looked at the other person who hadn't spoken.

This prompted Zhou Linxu to chuckle softly: "Let's go."

As Zhou Linxu walked, he asked, "Should we go pick up Mom and Dad first?"

"No need to pick them up," Jinxi said. "The car has already been taken back; they'll drive over in a bit."

On the day she picked up the car, they were moving graves, and her parents drove the car back themselves and even sent her a video.

However, the atmosphere wasn't quite right that day, so Jinxi didn't tell Zhou Linxu or Zanzan.

Zhou Linxu nodded slightly: "Alright."

Then, casually, he asked, "Have you found a property you like?"

"Not yet," Jinxi said. "We originally planned to view the apartment, but I've been busy these past few days, so I rescheduled it."

According to her plan, she intends to go house hunting this week, and if she finds a good one, she will take her parents to see it as well. If there are no problems, she will sign the contract and then start renovations in the second half of the year. Maybe she can even move into the new house before the New Year.

But plans change quickly, and today's date has been moved to next week.

Fortunately, her parents came, so she had a lot more time. She can go see them next week.

Jin Xi looked at Zhou Linxu: "Why are you suddenly asking this?"

"Just asking," Zhou Linxu said. "I'm busy with work every day and don't have time to go with you."

"It's nothing," Jinxi said. "We're both busy with our own things, these are just small matters. I'll let you know if I need anything."

Zhou Linxu is a very reliable person. Whenever Jinxi has any problems, she can easily solve them by asking him.

She's not the kind of person who's conflicted; she'll ask for help when necessary.

The family of three went out, and Jinxi changed into a pair of low-heeled leather shoes, which made her look even more beautiful.

She looked around using the reflection from the car door as a reference point, and was very satisfied.

She said, "My parents will definitely ask me where I went later."

Zhou Linxu opened the car door and, hearing her mutter, asked, somewhat confused, "Huh? What do you mean?"

Jinxi just chuckled softly: "You'll find out soon enough."

She got into the car, and Zan Zan was already sitting obediently in the middle.

I haven't seen my grandparents for several days. Although we've video chatted, I still miss them very much!

Zhou Linxu boarded the car from the other side.

Jinxi looked at him and couldn't help but remind him, "Let me make this clear first, don't drink like you did the other day. You scared my parents half to death that day."

It startled her too.

Zhou Linxu felt a little embarrassed when he recalled that day: "It was my first time visiting someone's home, I had no experience. I won't do it again, don't worry, I know what I'm doing."

Jinxi had doubts about this statement: "You'd better remember what you said, lest you forget everything when you get carried away."

The two chatted, and Zhou Yanqian listened quietly.

But as I listened, I started to feel that something was off.

The elderly father said it was his first time visiting and he had no experience.

But hadn't he met his mother's parents before?

Based on his current understanding of his father, he is not the kind of person who acts recklessly; on the contrary, he is very polite.

Zhou Yanqian looked at Zhou Linxu, his expression very calm.

He then went to check on Jinxi and found that Jinxi didn't seem strange at all.

But Zhou Yanqian felt something was very strange, though he couldn't quite put his finger on it.

Sigh, did he shrink, and did his brain shrink too?

Zhou Yanqian feels he's not smart enough anymore. Will he still be able to get into Tsinghua or Peking University in the future?

Zan Zan is always worried.

The restaurant we booked was a private club.

They all timed it perfectly, arriving one after the other.

As Zhou Yanqian watched them get out of the car, he obediently called out, "Grandma~ Grandpa~"

Jin Dahai laughed and picked Zan Zan up: "Oh my sweet baby, why are you dressed so handsomely today?"

Zhou Yanqian smiled sheepishly: "It's alright!"

Yang Hongyan said, "He's a hundred times more handsome than your grandfather."

Jin Dahai said, "So what? It's perfectly normal for a cute baby to be handsome."

Yang Hongyan then went to look at Jinxi and exclaimed, "Whose daughter is this? Why didn't my daughter come?"

Jinxi walked up to her very gracefully and turned around: "Mom~ I'm your daughter."

Yang Hongyan immediately praised, "My goodness, so you're Xiao Xi! I thought you were some kind of fairy descended from heaven!"

Jin Dahai also said, "As expected of the fairy of the Jin family, you make everyone else unable to leave the house after just a few steps."

Zhou Linxu finally understood why Jinxi said those things when she went out, and also why her personality was so good.

Such cheerful and open-minded parents can only raise bright and beautiful flowers.

Jinxi was overjoyed to hear this, and then playfully tugged at Yang Hongyan's arm, saying, "Mommy, Mommy, what you said makes me so embarrassed."

Yang Hongyan pinched her cheek: "You don't look shy at all."

Zhou Linxu snapped out of his daze and went over to greet them: "Good morning, Mom and Dad."

"Linxu, good morning too." Yang Hongyan said with a smile, "You look good too, energetic and upright."

Zhou Linxu smiled and said, "Thank you, Mom."

He then greeted Jin Dahai.

The staff at the private club were already out waiting to show us the way.

Seeing this, Jinxi said, "Let's go inside and talk. Linxu booked a private room. I heard the interior is decorated in a very artistic style. Knowing that you two like to play mahjong, he specially booked a private room with a mahjong machine. It's still early, we can play a few rounds."

Yang Hongyan and Jin Dahai were both very satisfied.

Jin Dahai, holding Zan Zan, couldn't help but say, "Having a son-in-law is great; I don't even need to call for teammates when playing mahjong anymore."

Zhou Linxu just smiled.

This private club has a total of twenty private rooms. However, these rooms are more like courtyards of different styles. Once inside, they are very private and quiet. Apart from the staff, no strangers will suddenly rush out to disturb you.

Zhou Yanqian looked around and saw that the landscaping was quite good.

I should have brought the oranges and lychees along too.

Jin Dahai exclaimed in amazement, "This courtyard is so beautiful!"

Yang Hongyan couldn't help but nod in agreement.

They really got in thanks to their daughter and son-in-law; otherwise, they wouldn't have even been able to get their hands on the door.

Jinxi had already walked up to the mahjong machine: "Come on, I can't wait to dominate the game!"

After inviting the people over to sit down, Zhou Yanqian, who had been playing in the yard, heard Jin Xi's voice and came over curiously to look at her.

He had played mahjong a few times in his previous life, and other people would intentionally or unintentionally feed him tiles, but Zhou Yanqian didn't find it fun at all.

Yang Hongyan said, "Let's try it out first and play slowly. We're not in a hurry; we'll just play for fun."

Zhou Linxu nodded: "Okay, Mom, I'll take my time."

Zhou Linxu rarely plays mahjong; he can only say he knows how to play, but whether he plays well is another matter.

The first game started quickly. Since it was a trial game, apart from Jinxi, the other three players played very cautiously, especially Zhou Linxu, who seemed to think deeply about every card he played.

Zhou Yanqian originally wanted to stay close to Jinxi, but seeing his father like this, he silently walked over to his side and looked at him.

Please check on my father so he doesn't lose too badly!
