The two of them went back to the second floor one after the other. Zan Zan came out of the elevator just then, with Butler Zhao carrying two vases behind him.

Zhou Yanqian propped his head up and looked at the two of them with a puzzled expression.

Why is today's Xiaoxi Xiaoxu so strange?

However, he couldn't quite put his finger on what was strange about it.

Zhou Yanqian raised his hands and scratched his head. Forget it, he'd ignore the two of them.

The important thing now is to put his flowers in a vase!

The child couldn't understand, but the housekeeper behind him could see it very clearly. However, her years of experience as a housekeeper had made her adept at pretending not to see it.

Butler Zhao placed the vase in the children's room and then asked, "Zanzan, would you like me to arrange the flowers for you?"

Zhou Yanqian waved his hand: "No need, no need, you go ahead and get busy, Aunt Zhao!"

Xiao Xi and Xiao Xu are both here now, so there's no need for Steward Zhao.

Jinxi first fetched some water and then placed it on the small table. She patted the empty seat next to her and said, "Baby, come here quickly."

Zhou Yanqian immediately went over and sat down next to her.

Zhou Linxu was a step too slow and was about to go around to the other side to sit down when he heard his son say enthusiastically, "Dad, come and sit down!"

As he spoke, he patted the empty seat next to him.

Zhou Linxu then walked over and sat down. Jin Xi saw his behavior clearly and couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Zhou Yanqian looked at Jinxi in confusion: "Mommy, what are you laughing at?"

Jin Xi coughed lightly: "...It's nothing."

Zhou Linxu had already sat down by now, and upon hearing Jin Xi's laughter, he looked at her with a hint of resentment.

They even had the nerve to laugh.

Jinxi looked away; it was truly strange.

She and Zhou Linxu are now a legitimate couple, a dutiful husband and wife, so why does she seem a little embarrassed in front of Zan Zan?

Zhou Yanqian didn't care about their little schemes; he was focused on flower arranging.

He deftly tore open the wrapping of the bouquet of flowers his father had given him. The stems of the flowers were quite long, and the leaves had been trimmed; he could simply put them inside.

Flower arranging is so easy!

Jinxi clapped her hands: "This is amazing, baby! You're a flower arranging genius!"

Zhou Linxu glanced at it and realized that the flower arrangement geniuses there had simply changed the packaging to bottles.

However, praising Zan Zan makes him happy, and Zhou Linxu is willing to make him happy as well.

He then praised, "Truly a genius, exactly the same as before."

That sounds so strange.

Zhou Yanqian pursed his lips, then decided to just praise him.

Zhou Yanqian said, "I'm going to put it on my bedside table."

Jinxi nodded: "Then you go, but be careful not to let the water splash on you."

Zhou Yanqian responded with an "Oh," and said, "Don't worry!"

He got up from the carpet, barefoot, and stood firmly on the ground, holding the vase with both hands, one above the other. With each step, you could see his toes exerting force.

Jin Xi glanced at Zhou Linxu, only to find that he had been staring at her the whole time.

Zhou Linxu shifted closer to her: "What do you want to say?"

Jinxi said, "I wanted you to go help him. Didn't you see how cautious your son was walking?"

"It's alright." Zhou Linxu tilted his head slightly, leaning on Jin Xi's shoulder as if he had no bones. "This kid is very clever, don't worry about him."

Especially since he himself said things like "don't worry," if he went to help him, he would be criticized by Zan Zan again.

Jinxi shrugged slightly: "If you look like this, Zanzan will start complaining about you again when he turns around and sees you."

"A son doesn't despise his father for being ugly." Zhou Linxu closed his eyes: "If he dares to complain, I'll make sure his ass is bruised and battered tonight."

"You two are really at odds," Jinxi said helplessly. "You make him cry and then you have to comfort him. Why did you have to provoke him in the first place?"

Zhou Linxu felt very wronged: "I clearly didn't provoke him. I praised him, but he felt like I was bullying him."

Jin Xi didn't even bother to mention Zhou Linxu's initial hardcore way of praising her; it was so over-the-top it made her want to jump.

But things are much better now, and the atmosphere between the father and son is becoming more and more harmonious.

More importantly, Zan Zan is becoming more and more affectionate.

Zhou Yanqian was carefully arranging the vases. The ones his father gave him were placed on his side, and the ones his mother gave him were placed on his side. This way, it was just right; if he wanted to see the flowers, he could just turn his head and see them.

He placed it in the very center, looked at it again and again, and was extremely satisfied.

When Zhou Yanqian turned his head to ask the other two for their opinions, he saw that his father had already leaned against Jin Xidu. The two of them were chatting away, but they both looked very relaxed.

The two of them were very tacit, and neither of them looked at him.

Zhou Yanqian pouted and walked up to them, somewhat annoyed.

Jinxi looked up and said, "Baby's all set up."

Her gaze then fell upon the vase on the bedside table, placed precisely in the center, not a fraction off.

Jinxi said, "Baby, you arranged everything so neatly!"

The novel mentioned that Zan Zan had some obsessive-compulsive disorder. Did she have it at such a young age?

Hearing Jin Xi praise him, Zhou Yanqian's depressed mood subsided somewhat.

He walked over and squeezed between the two people without any hesitation.

Zhou Linxu was squeezed so much that his upper body tilted to the side, and then a chubby little thing grew on his leg.

He realized that Zhou Zanzan seemed to be doing it on purpose; she could have sat on the blanket, but she insisted on sitting on his lap instead.

Zhou Linxu reached out and pinched that plump buttock, and Zhou Zanzan turned her head and glared at him: "You can't pinch it!"

As he spoke, he shifted slightly, but even that one movement made Zhou Linxu feel as if his legs were about to break.

"...Zhou Zanzan, are you doing this on purpose?" Zhou Linxu picked him up, not letting him sit on his lap: "You're going to flatten Daddy's legs."

Zhou Yanqian was originally very serious, but when he heard his father say such things, he couldn't hold back anymore and buried his face in his father's arms, secretly laughing.

Hahahaha, of course he did it on purpose! It's such a pity he was found out so quickly!

Zhou Yanqian had originally planned to move it again if no one noticed.

Zhou Linxu put one arm around him and patted his butt with the other: "Be careful, your butt will get bruised and battered."

Zhou Yanqian didn't believe it and just kept laughing.


Zhou Linxu glanced at Jin Xi helplessly: "Can you please stop watching the show? He's bullying me."

Jinxi whistled, deciding to play dumb: "Really? I didn't see anything."

Zhou Yanqian straightened his round chin and said matter-of-factly, "I didn't bully you. I was just playing with you."

What does it mean to "play along with you"?

This is utterly upside down!
