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

They took Zan Zan to the martial arts hall. Because they left late, there were already quite a few children waiting for their class when they arrived.

Zhou Yanqian first greeted his maternal grandparents, and when he turned around, Jin Xi and Zhou Linxu were holding hands and looking at him.

As soon as she let go of his hand, the two of them couldn't wait to hold hands again.

It really is true what they say, the child was an accident.

Jinxi looked at him and said, "What are you doing, baby? Staring at the two of us."

Zhou Yanqian sniffed and asked in a muffled voice, "Are you leaving?"

Jinxi nodded and said, "Yes, we made an appointment with the agent at 9:30. It's just right to go now."

It's not very hot now, but it will get hot around noon.

She booked two apartments today. She was quite satisfied with the ones she saw online, so she plans to visit them in person today. If it's suitable, she'd like to make a purchase.

Moreover, these two houses are not far from the martial arts hall, so it will be convenient for my parents to move in.

After saying goodbye to Yang Hongyan, Jin Xi and Zhou Linxu left the martial arts hall hand in hand.

They arrived late today, and the parking lots were already full. Their car was parked a little further away, so they had to walk a bit.

Zhou Yanqian thought for a long time, then ran to the door to check on the two of them.

Jinxi and Zhou Linxu turned around and she shook their arms, saying, "Look at your son, looking at us with such a pitiful expression as we leave, just like Daju and Dali at home when they see us go out."

Zhou Linxu also looked at Zanzan, whose resentful little eyes made him, the old father, feel extremely tormented.

He simply turned his head away and said, "Stop looking. If you don't look, you won't feel sorry for him."

I can just buy him a small cake later, so he won't say those mean things about not loving him again.

Upon hearing Zhou Linxu's words, Jin Xi couldn't help but laugh: "Okay, I'll listen to you, I won't watch it either."

Zhou Linxu opened an umbrella, shielding the two of them from the sunlight and also blocking the gaze of a certain child who wanted to see them.

Zhou Yanqian knew what his father meant from a distance.

He scoffed. He was clearly giving them face by coming out to see them off!

He will never see me off again!

Zhou Yanqian returned to the martial arts hall in a depressed mood. The martial arts hall was air-conditioned, cool and comfortable.

Jin Dahai came over and picked him up: "What's wrong, sweetie? You look so sullen."

Zhou Yanqian said, "Grandpa, I want to drink iced milk tea."

"Okay," Jin Dahai said. "Grandpa will buy you a drink at noon. Do you want to order takeout or go buy it from across the street?"

Zhou Yanqian thought for a moment: "Let's order takeout!"

There are many takeout options, but he doesn't want the milk tea across the street today.

"Then wait until noon, use Grandpa's phone to make the order." Jin Dahai scratched his chin: "Your good friends have been waiting for you for a long time."

Summer vacation has begun, and not only Zhengzheng, but also Lele and the others have all gathered together.

Their martial arts class is as lively as a kindergarten.

Jin Dahai carried Zan Zan to the training room, and Zhou Yanqian was immediately surrounded as soon as he entered the training room.

Lele said, "Zanzan, why are you so late today?"

Zhou Yanqian replied, "I overslept."

"Then don't oversleep next time. We didn't oversleep at all; we've been waiting for you for ages." Lele took his little hand. "You didn't come yesterday; I missed you so much."

Are Zhengzheng and Lele from the same training class when it comes to these sales pitches?

Zhou Yanqian coughed lightly: "Let's talk about next time next time."

How does he know if he'll be able to get up next time?

Zhengzheng came over at that moment: "Thumbs up!"

Zhou Yanqian looked at him: "Why did you suddenly call me?"

Zhengzheng said, "I wanted to call you. We didn't even see each other yesterday, and I could already do somersaults."

"Me too! Me too!" Lele exclaimed happily. "Master said I'm a very strong child!"

Zhou Yanqian felt his ears were buzzing, listening to Lele talking, Zhengzheng talking, and the buzzing sounds of other children.

It was like a swarm of little bees buzzing around his head.

I really want to go home.

Once class finally started, Zhou Yanqian's mind finally cleared up a bit.

Zhengzheng stood beside him and whispered, "Zanzan, I brought you some really delicious snacks. Let's eat them together at noon."

"Okay," Zhou Yanqian replied, "I'll treat you to milk tea at noon."

He didn't know if the other kids could drink it, but he was sure Gu Mingzheng, being a foodie, could.

Zhou Yanqian simply didn't want to owe anyone a favor, since Gu Mingzheng had invited him before.

"Okay, okay," Zhengzheng said. "How about we drink the one my dad bought for me before? I think it tastes really good."

"Let's check if there's any takeout available later." Zhou Yanqian wasn't sure either, as Jinxi usually ordered takeout.

Zhengzheng nodded happily: "Okay! I'll take a look later!"

Jin Dahai coughed lightly: "Zanzan, Zhengzheng, you two, stop daydreaming."

Zhou Yanqian immediately became serious. His grandfather had said long ago that once classes started, there would be no grandsons in the martial arts class! Only the steely-willed kid, Zan Zan!

After one class, Zhou Yanqian was exhausted. He sat in the corner, sighed, opened his computer, and sent a message to Jinxi: "Have you guys finished your classes this morning? Do you want to come over for lunch?"

Jinxi quickly replied to his voice message: "We're not coming over for dinner. You can eat with your grandparents."

In martial arts classes, children are usually picked up and taken home for lunch. Zhou Zanzan doesn't have this problem; he eats whatever Jin Dahai and Yang Hongyan eat.

Once Zhou Yanqian was certain they weren't coming back, he went to find Jin Dahai.

At that moment, Jin Dahai was chatting with a child's parent. Zhou Yanqian went over and waited for a while, but after several minutes, his grandfather still didn't acknowledge him.

I originally thought that going to my grandmother would be the same, but when I turned my head, I saw several children surrounding my grandmother.

Zhou Yanqian tugged at Jin Dahai's clothes: "Grandpa, Grandpa."

Jin Dahai then noticed Zanzan behind him and looked down to ask, "Are you hungry, sweetie?"

Zhou Yanqian shook his head: "I want to order milk tea."

Jinxi had already told them beforehand that she would order milk tea for Zanzan. Jin Dahai unlocked his phone and said, "You can choose for yourself. Grandpa will pay for it when you're done."

Zhou Yanqian hummed in agreement, then took his phone and sat down in the corner again.

You can order any kind of milk tea here. Zhou Yanqian looked around and actually saw that exorbitantly priced milk tea shop from before!

He clicked in and looked, then said, "Wait, wait, wait."

Isn't it 100 yuan a cup?

Why does a cup of food only cost around 20 yuan on food delivery apps?

Zhou Yanqian's eyes widened in disbelief. Had he and Jin Xi been tricked?

Zhou Yanqian looked at it in disbelief and saw that the orange flavor he liked was only 21, and even a huge cup was only 26.

When Zhengzheng approached Zanzan with his small bag, he noticed that Zanzan's expression was a bit strange.

He tilted his head and looked at him: "Zan Zan, what did you do?"

He looks unhappy again.

Zhou Yanqian said, "It's alright, what would you like to drink?"

He handed the phone to Zhengzheng, who glanced at it and thought the fresh fruit milk tea from this shop was quite delicious.

Zhengzheng said, "I'd like the grape flavor."

Zhou Yanqian said "oh," ordered him a grape iced milk and himself an orange iced milk, which came out to only 30 yuan after the discount.

Zhou Yanqian felt he would never laugh again.

He finally realized that it wasn't him and Jinxi who had been tricked; it was clearly him who had been tricked by Jinxi!

His one thousand yuan—

Zhou Yanqian's heart was bleeding. Jin Xi really had all the strength and cunning! She even dared to swindle money from children! How wicked!

Zhengzheng couldn't figure out what Zanzan was angry about. He took out a bag of cookies from his small bag, which looked like ordinary finger cookies.

Zhengzheng said, "Zanzan, this is really super super delicious! I was going to bring you some yesterday, but you didn't come, so I ate it all myself. Last night I asked my dad to buy me a new bag."

As he tore open the bag of cookies, Zhou Yanqian ate one with some skepticism.

It's really delicious, with a milky aroma and a hint of caramel, making you want to take another bite after just one.

Zhengzheng, with an "I knew it!" look on her face, exclaimed, "Isn't it super delicious?!"

Zhou Yanqian nodded: "It really is delicious."

"Eat up, eat up! I'll have my dad buy some more tonight, don't be shy!" Zhengzheng also stuffed two small cookies into her mouth: "Zanzan, besides cookies and milk tea, what else do we eat for lunch?"

Zhou Yanqian asked, "What would you like to eat? We can order takeout."

"I want to eat a hamburger." Zhengzheng chewed on a biscuit. "There's a giant hamburger. I saw a picture of it when I came here. It looks so delicious."

Upon hearing Zhengzheng's words, Zhou Yanqian also wanted a hamburger: "Then I'll talk to my grandfather."

Zhou Yanqian stuffed another bite of biscuit into his mouth and took out his phone to look for Jin Dahai.

Now that Dahai had some free time, he squatted down and asked, "Have you chosen your darling yet?"

Zhou Yanqian nodded and said, "Grandpa, Zhengzheng and I want to eat hamburgers again."

"A hamburger?" Jin Dahai hesitated for a moment: "I have to ask your mom."

Zhou Yanqian said, "She said I can eat whatever I want for lunch, Grandpa, please buy it for me."

Jin Dahai pinched his little cheek: "Little Zan Zan, okay then, Grandpa will give you some."

"Add another order of fries," Zhou Yanqian said. "Please add lots of ketchup in the notes."

He and Zhengzheng both love ketchup; they like it best with lots of it.

Zhou Yanqian rattled off a whole bunch of requirements, and only became a little happier after seeing Jin Dahai order takeout.

He returned to his original spot, where Zhengzheng was still sitting and waiting for him.

Zhou Yanqian said, "It's already ordered."

Zhengzheng nodded: "Zanzan, do you have any pictures of your cat? I'd like to see them."

Zhou Yanqian had taken a picture of Pearl with the Little Genius app. He lowered his head and tapped the app twice, and Pearl's picture appeared on the small screen.

Both little heads huddled together, wanting to see the pearls.

Zhengzheng exclaimed in surprise, "Pearls are yellow too!"

"That's right." Zhou Yanqian said with some pride, "The same goes for oranges and lychees."

"Do Daju and Dali still remember me?" Zhengzheng said. "I haven't played with them in a long time."

"Why don't you come over to my house this weekend?" Zhou Yanqian said casually. "My parents are taking me to the water park, we can go together."

Zhengzheng's eyes immediately lit up: "Great! Awesome! I wish we lived in the same neighborhood!"

Every time I go to visit Zan Zan, it's a 20-minute drive, and we can't play for very long because it gets dark and we have to go home.

If they lived in the same neighborhood, even if he got home after dark, he could still play with Zan Zan in the neighborhood's children's playground.

Zhou Yanqian thought for a moment, "If the two of them lived in the same neighborhood, would he still have any ears?"

We might as well just flip his skull off.

Zhou Yanqian replied perfunctorily, "Mhm, look at the pearls."

Zhengzheng's attention was diverted.

He sat down next to Zan Zan, his chubby elbows resting on his knees, and whispered, "Zan Zan, you're so lucky right now."
