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

Zhou Yanqian rested his head on Zhou Linxu's shoulder, his soft face pressed against his neck, and he hugged him tighter.

Zhou Linxu held the warm, chick-smelling baby in his arms, tilting his head slightly so that his cheek touched Zan Zan's ear.

He said, "If Dad didn't love you, he wouldn't hug you."

Zhou Yanqian hugged his neck tightly: "You still haven't answered my question."

Zhou Linxu said earnestly, "Dad loves you, I'll love you for the rest of my life."

Zhou Yanqian was finally satisfied.

Zhou Linxu countered with, "Then do you love your father?"

Zhou Yanqian snorted and stubbornly replied, "I love you the least."

This made Zhou Linxu laugh and say, "Fine, fine, I know you don't love me anymore."

Zhou Yanqian was annoyed. Why didn't he ask more questions? If he had asked more questions, he would have changed his mind.

Zhou Linxu patted the buttocks of the boy sitting on his arm: "It's time to take off your clothes and take a shower."

"Then take them off for me." Zhou Yanqian whined like a puppy, "I don't want to take them off myself."

"You didn't want me to help you take your clothes off before," Zhou Linxu pinched him again. "So young and already changing your mind so quickly? I don't want to help you take your clothes off either."

Zhou Yanqian was unhappy and clung to him, refusing to get off.

Jinxi came in with clothes at that moment. Seeing Zanzan clinging to Zhou Linxu like a sticky rice cake, she asked in confusion, "What's wrong? The water's getting cold, aren't you going to take off your clothes and take a bath?"

Zhou Linxu said, "He wanted me to help him take off his clothes, but I refused, and that's how he ended up like this."

Before Jinxi could even speak, Zanzan shouted at the top of his lungs, "Mommy~ Daddy's bullying the kids!"

A large pot was dumped directly onto Zhou Linxu's back.

Zhou Linxu was speechless for a moment.

His tone was tinged with helplessness: "You stinky Zan Zan, you should at least tattle on people behind their backs, right? I'm right here."

Zhou Yanqian pinched his mouth shut: "I didn't give you permission to speak, so you can't speak now."

Jinxi put her pajamas aside and said, "If Daddy won't take them off, I will. Hurry up and take a bath."

She quickly ripped off Zan Zan's T-shirt, exposing Zhou Yanqian's fair and tender upper body.

Zhou Linxu also placed him on the sink and quickly pulled down his pants.

Now it was Zhou Yanqian's turn to be speechless. How could this couple be so skilled at stripping him of his clothes? It was like peeling the leaves of a vegetable; they stripped him clean in no time.

Oh, except for his dog pants.

Jinxi knew that Zanzan was a child who cared a lot about his privacy, so she bent down slightly and cupped his face in her hands: "Mommy is going upstairs to take a bath. Be a good boy and take a bath. Mommy will come down and play with you when I'm done."

"Okay." Zhou Yanqian swung his legs. "Then hurry up and wash, or I'll fall asleep."

Jinxi always takes her time taking a bath, and she doesn't get off until he's finished.

"Okay." Jinxi gave him another big kiss: "My dearest Mommy's baby!"

After the kiss, he left the bathroom with a flourish.

Zhou Yanqian turned to look at his elderly father, who was now facing away from him, bending over to test the water temperature.

He looked at the man's hair, which was still jet black, but in his previous life, he seemed to have developed white hair very early, and by the time he was only in his thirties, half of his hair had already turned white.

Zhou Yanqian lowered his eyes, seemingly lost in thought.

Zhou Linxu added some more hot water, and once the temperature was right, he turned back and picked him up: "Let's take a bath, you stinky baby."

Zhou Linxu held him with one arm and turned on the tap in the sink with the other. He first washed Zan Zan's smelly feet, then carried him to the small bathtub, took off his dog pants, and put him in the water.

He then pulled over a stool to the side, a bath stool specially prepared for him.

Zhou Linxu said, "Turn around, Dad will wash your hair first."

Zhou Yanqian obediently spun around, holding the duck in both hands.

He heard Zhou Linxu chuckle softly: "Did you do something naughty? Why are you being so well-behaved today?"

Zhou Yanqian said listlessly, "I didn't."

Zhou Linxu wet his hair, squeezed out some shampoo, and gently rubbed it on his head.

The current Zhou Linxu is not the same Zhou Linxu as before. He is now very skilled at bathing Zan Zan, all thanks to his practice over the years.

Zhou Yanqian felt his scalp being massaged very well. He was still holding the duck in his hands, but the duck was no longer screaming as it had before.

Zhou Linxu felt that Zanzan was a little too well-behaved tonight. Usually when he bathed him, Zanzan would complain about this and that. The little conductor was doing a very good job.

He asked gently, "Baby, is something bothering you today?"

Zhou Yanqian turned his head and glanced at him, his big eyes filled with great confusion: "I'm not upset about anything."

Zhou Linxu poked his cheek with his finger: "So you've been behaving so well today?"

"I'm good to you and you're still not satisfied!" Zhou Yanqian turned his face away. "You're really being unreasonable!"

Zhou Linxu chuckled softly: "Alright, it's Dad who's being unreasonable. Little guest, is the pressure okay?"

"It's alright, nothing special!" Zhou Yanqian said. "I won't be getting a membership card!"

Zhou Linxu smiled happily. This was just right; this was the sharp-tongued baby he knew.

Zhou Yanqian was feeling rather depressed at this moment.

I was trying to be nice to my father, but he didn't appreciate it at all.

He squeezed the duck doll, and the duck started quacking again.

Zhou Linxu, standing behind him, remarked with a sigh, "Hmm, not bad, I feel a bit better now."

Zhou Yanqian: ...

After taking a shower, Zhou Yanqian was carried to bed. He lay on the edge of the spaceship, peeking out at the two large oranges and lychees that were nibbling at each other by the bed.

After watching for a while, Zhou Yanqian lay back down on the bed, hugged his puppy plush toy, and turned over.

He closed his eyes, but he wasn't sleepy at all.

Until today, Xi arrived.

Jinxi walked to the bedside, thinking the baby was asleep, and softly called out, "Baby?"

Zan Zan didn't respond immediately, so she covered Zan Zan with a blanket and was just about to leave quietly when she didn't expect Zan Zan to open her eyes.

Her little hand also grabbed her finger.

Jinxi laughed: "So the baby was just pretending to sleep to scare me!"

Zhou Yanqian hummed in agreement, then sat up and, shifting slightly, pounced into Jinxi's arms.

Jinxi hugged him and asked, "What's wrong?"

Zan Zan was acting a little strange tonight, but Jin Xi couldn't quite put her finger on what was wrong.

It seems like it started after he got burned by the skewers, but he seemed to enjoy eating it afterwards.

Jinxi pressed her cheek against his: "Baby, what's wrong? Tell Mommy, okay?"

Zhou Yanqian couldn't say it.

He kept his head down for a long time before he seemed to remember something and slowly said, "...I don't have a game console, but Zhengzheng does."

"Oh? Is that all it is?" Jinxi said, "Tomorrow I'll have Butler Zhao buy three game controllers and some games. Dad and I will play with you, okay?"

Zhou Yanqian nodded obediently in her arms: "Okay."

Jinxi said, "You can just tell me what you want, and Mom and Dad will buy it for you."

Zhou Yanqian's eyes darted around. "I want the moon."

Jinxi pinched his butt: "Starting to talk nonsense again, aren't you?"

Zhou Yanqian squirmed in her arms a couple of times, and said defiantly, "Did you tell me to just say it directly?"

"It has to be within our capabilities," Jinxi said. "Why don't you just ask your dad to build you a rocket and send you to space?"

Zhou Yanqian's gaze fell on the airplane model in the display case.

He said, "Then I'll fly up to the sky from now on."

"Okay, then you can become a captain and fly planes, standing shoulder to shoulder with the sun." Jinxi laughed, "From now on, I'll call you Captain Zan."

Zhou Yanqian leaned against Jinxi's collarbone, his soft little hands reaching out to scratch her arm.

Jinxi looked down and was puzzled.

Why is she so stingy? And so clever! She doesn't sting on herself, but she stings on her parents!
