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

Jinxi picked up her phone, thought for a moment, and then sent a message to Zhou Linxu.

[Xiao Xi: You're at the bar?]

Zhou Linxu replied instantly: [I was originally planning to wait for you outside, but Chen Yue came over and recognized my car. We're right next door. If you're leaving, text me beforehand and I'll come out. Or would you like to come over?]

Oh dear, what Zhou Linxu said makes me feel uneasy.

It's like she's out there having a good time, while her poor husband is waiting anxiously for her to come home.

Jinxi finished her drink in her glass, little by little: "I'm not coming anymore. We'll have to go home after playing for a while."

Without the male models to liven things up, even Chen Zhang seemed a bit listless. Jin Xi figured that if they stayed a little longer, they would all go home.

Jinxi picked up another glass of fruit wine, then remembered there was still a big, chubby baby: [You're out! Where's Zanzan?]

[Foreword: I got him to sleep, the security camera was on, and Daju and Dali were watching over him; there were no problems.]

After saying that, he also sent a video of Zan Zan fast asleep in his room. The nightlight in the corner was on, dimly lit, just enough to see the chubby baby on the bed, but not enough to disturb his sleep.

Jinxi watched as Zanzan, a little boy, lay across the middle of the bed, hugging the puppy. Without his dad's help to adjust his sleeping position, Zanzan would only sleep more and more freely.

She replied, "I should have known you could have stayed home and watched over him. I could have just taken a taxi back later."

Poor Zan Zan, next time I'll definitely let Zhou Linxu stay home to look after the kids.

Zhou Linxu only replied with a puppy turning its head emoji, and it's unclear what it meant.

Jinxi finished her cocktail. This one tasted better than the previous one, with a sweet and sour flavor and a unique lime aroma. She only took a small sip of this one. After finishing it, Jinxi grabbed another one.

The freshly mixed drinks are indeed different. The one in her hand has the aroma of guava. She looked at the labels next to her and found that both of the drinks she had were called First Love, except that the one in front of her was called Lime First Love, but Guava First Love.

But it tastes just as good.

Jinxi reached out again and picked up a cup of Orange First Love.

Her little rice cake loves citrus fruits, so she'll try this orange wine too.

The first bite is filled with a rich orange aroma, as if you were actually tasting an orange.

This reminded Jinxi of a type of orange she had eaten before, a winter limited edition called "PaPa Gan".

These mandarins are so sweet and juicy. I can buy some for Zan Zan when they're in stock; I think he'll like them too.

However, you shouldn't eat too many oranges, as they can easily turn you yellow and cause internal heat.

Jinxi drank while thinking, wondering if Uncle Li had brought the wine today. If so, Zhou Linxu could also try it.

Chen Zhang greeted everyone and walked over to Jin Xi. Seeing the three empty glasses in front of her and the wine in her hand, he quickly said, "Sister Jin, Sister Jin, drink less. This wine is quite strong in the back of your neck."

Jinxi did feel a little lightheaded at this moment, but she was still quite happy. She said, "It's okay, it's okay. I can hold my liquor pretty well. I'll stop after this glass."

She's not a glutton, and she only took small sips of each cup, which added up to less than half a cup of milk tea for Zan Zan, so how could she possibly get drunk?

And she can drink half a glass of baijiu!

But as soon as she finished thinking that, Jinxi felt a little dizzy.

But it was only a little bit; it seems I spoke too soon.

Chen Zhang asked, "Are you alright? Should I have my brother call my second brother over, and you guys go back first?"

Jinxi glanced at the time; it was almost eleven o'clock already, and it would take about twenty minutes to drive back. It was time to go home; Zhou Linxu had to go to work tomorrow.

"I'll just text him." Jinxi's eyes were bright at this moment: "I'm fine, this little bit of alcohol is okay. You do your thing, you don't need to look after me."

She knew Chen Zhang was worried about her, so she took out her phone and sent a message to Zhou Linxu.

Zhou Linxu replied quickly, saying that he was right at the door of the private room and that she could just come out.

Jinxi patted her face; it was a little hot. She had been drinking and her face was flushed. Her body was feeling warm.

She picked up her bag, greeted the others, stood up, and even stumbled a step.

Chen Zhang rushed to her side and asked, "Are you alright?"

Jinxi hummed twice: "It's okay, it's okay, I just lost my balance, don't worry."

She picked up her bag and walked straight out. Chen Zhang, worried, followed beside her.

As soon as the door opened, Zhou Linxu stood in the doorway.

When Jinxi saw him, her eyes lit up slightly. Before she could speak, Zhou Linxu stepped forward and took her arm, while his other hand reached for the bag hanging in the middle of her arm.

Chen Zhang called out, "Second Brother."

Zhou Linxu nodded slightly: "How much did she drink?"

Chen Zhang thought for a moment: "It seems like four or five cups, and the alcohol content is not low."

Zhou Linxu hummed in agreement: "I know. Your brother is next door, so don't stay out too late."

Chen Zhang chuckled awkwardly twice: "Okay, Second Brother."

Zhou Linxu lowered his head and asked softly, "Are you feeling unwell?"

Jinxi shook her head and mumbled, "It's nothing, I'm just a little dizzy. Let's go home quickly, Zanzan is still at home."

Zhou Linxu hummed in agreement, then placed one hand on her waist from behind, gently pulling her closer to him.

Jinxi was a little embarrassed: "No, it's okay, I can manage on my own..."

"It's dimly lit here, let me take you down," Zhou Linxu said softly. "Don't fall."

Chen Zhang watched the two figures, leaning on each other, walk away into the distance, and rubbed his arms.

Oh my goodness, Zhou Erge's gentle and tender tone sounds like he's possessed by something.

Sure enough, men in love do change quite a bit.

Chen Zhang shrank his neck and went back inside to play.

Zhou Linxu and Jin Xi left the bar, the July evening breeze felt warm on their skin.

Jin Xi then turned to look at Zhou Linxu and asked, "Have you been drinking?"

"I didn't drink," Zhou Linxu said. "I was watching Zanzan sleep in the private room."

Jinxi felt that Zhou Linxu was quite patient. She said, "Actually, you don't have to come pick me up. I can just take a taxi home myself."

Zhou Linxu smelled the faint scent of alcohol on her. Jinxi didn't actually drink much alcohol; she preferred fruit juice and milk tea, just like Zanzan.

It's rare to see her so drunk; her cheeks are flushed, and she looks completely different.

He looked like he was drunk, but also like he wasn't.

Jinxi was actually starting to regret her gluttony; the alcohol seemed to be taking effect, and her legs were feeling a little weak.

Zhou Linxu felt her body sinking downwards and asked with a hint of helplessness, "Is the alcohol kicking in?"

Jinxi still tried to deny it: "No, no..."

As soon as she finished speaking, her legs were lifted off the ground.

Jinxi looked up, somewhat bewildered, but only met Zhou Linxu's deep eyes.
