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

Because Jinxi injured her hand, the production team had the chef cook dinner for them.

After the meal, Jinxi sat in the courtyard to cool off, while Zanzan sat next to him, holding a cup that was half full of milk.

She yawned and said, "If you can't drink it, then don't. Drinking too much water can make you wet the bed."

Just now, Zan Zan drank a whole bowl of tomato soup. Before she knew it, Zan Zan had made half a cup of milk and was sitting quietly next to her, holding it.

Jinxi couldn't help but wonder, if he doesn't drink it, what's the point of brewing it?

Zhou Yanqian snorted. He wasn't a real child; how could he possibly wet the bed?

They keep saying things that leave you speechless!

Despite his inner complaints, Zhou Yanqian touched the outside of the cup and, noticing that the temperature had dropped, stood up.

Jinxi turned to look at him and saw Zanzan place the milk cup in her hand, then the boy coolly said, "I'm going to take a bath."

After saying that, he went into the house without looking back, as if some kind of monstrous beast was chasing him.

Jinxi looked at the still-warm milk and belatedly realized that it wasn't for Zanzan herself, but was specially made for her.

No wonder she was holding it without drinking a drop, and seemed a little awkward. Turns out she was thinking about what to give her milk.

Jinxi looked down at the milk and couldn't help but laugh out loud. She immediately finished the half glass of milk, then got up and went into the house.

Zan Zan was squatting in front of her suitcase, taking out her clean pajamas. When she heard Jin Xi's footsteps, she didn't even bother to lift her head.

Jinxi walked over with a smile and squatted down as well: "I just finished all the milk, thank you baby. I'll make you some tomorrow too, it's just a matter of reciprocity."

Zhou Yanqian hugged his pajamas tightly to his chest, stood up, and stubbornly said, "I just suddenly didn't want to drink it anymore. I didn't make milk for you specifically. Don't flatter yourself!"

Jinxi stroked her chin and exclaimed, "Baby, your language skills are amazing! You even know how to be presumptuous! Is this what genius is? So, are you going to study humanities or sciences in the future?"

Zhou Yanqian was speechless. Couldn't he learn everything?

With his abilities, he can easily master both literature and science; what's the big deal that requires such deep thought?

No, is that the point?

Zhou Yanqian felt like he had been completely ensnared by Jin Xi.

He said coolly, "Stop talking, it doesn't sound nice."

Jin Xi nodded and said, "Then I'll sing for you, okay?"

Zhou Yanqian: ...

Zhou Yanqian grabbed his pajamas and rushed into the bathroom. Jin Xi followed behind him with a laugh, saying, "Walk slowly, don't fall. I'll adjust the water temperature for you."

Honestly, this little rascal is so easily teased.

When Jinxi came out after taking a bath, Zanzan was already lying obediently in bed.

I don't know if he was frightened during the day, but he still has his eyes wide open and hasn't been playing with the watch or the phone that the production team gave him back.

Jinxi walked over and asked, "Why aren't you asleep yet?"

Zhou Yanqian glanced at her, then shrank further under the covers, turned over, and remained silent with his back to her.

What happened this time?

Jinxi lifted the covers and lay down, unable to help but sigh, "The bed is so comfortable. Just one more day, and filming will be over tomorrow afternoon."

She has already bought a ticket for a flight at 7 PM tomorrow, and she should be home by 10 PM at the earliest.

Jinxi is already missing the happiness of her two-meter-wide bed. When she gets back, she will first have a good night's sleep, and then she will get Zanzan moving again.

This time, Zan Zan came without any signs of acclimatization issues, played games without any problems, and was in great physical condition.

She said that exercise is definitely useful.

Jinxi looked at the little boy who had his back to her, thought for a moment, and then reached out to poke his shoulder.

Zan Zan merely twitched slightly and ignored him.

Jinxi persisted, poking the ticklish spot under his armpit again. This time, Zanzan couldn't lie on his side anymore; he lay flat and said unhappily, "What are you doing!"

Shouldn't adults be quiet and respectful when children are sleeping?

But Jinxi has no sense of self-awareness as an adult; instead, she acts like a demon.

Zhou Yanqian felt so tired.

She smiled and said, "If you move any further into bed, you'll be sleeping off the bed. Move in a little more yourself."

Zhou Yanqian said in a stiff tone, "I won't fall off the bed."

Jinxi just laughed twice and didn't expose him for acting like a gymnast late at night. If Jinxi hadn't held his blanket down with her hand, he would have fallen off the bed many times over.

But kids, they always have to be tactful when they talk.

Jinxi said, "Okay, actually I'm a little scared. If Zanzan could get closer to me, I wouldn't be scared."

Jinxi pretended to flinch: "It's quiet here, there shouldn't be any monsters, right?"

After saying that, he raised his hand and tried to find the wound on his palm that was no longer visible.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yanqian realized it was pure nonsense meant to fool children.

But seeing Jinxi's expression, he reluctantly moved closer to her in the end: "You're such a hassle!"

How could that man have chosen such a woman as his wife? Even if she's a contract wife, he can't just marry anyone.

In my previous life I was mentally ill, in this life I am a god!

Zhou Yanqian couldn't help but sigh. He just wanted a quiet and peaceful life, why was it so difficult?

Jinxi took in his utterly dejected expression, but pretending not to see anything, she raised her hand and pressed it against the blanket, gently patting him through the covers: "Go to sleep."

Having been here for so long, Zan Zan's personality has actually improved a lot compared to the beginning. After all, in the first few days after she arrived, he was able to hold back from saying a single word to her.

The little guy has quite a temper.

Although we don't talk much now, we still answer her questions and I make her milk and take care of her.

Jinxi looked at Zanzan with her eyes closed and felt a little awkward, always saying one thing but meaning another.

She patted Zan Zan gently, but her thoughts drifted away.

At first, her attitude towards Zan Zan was more of a sense of responsibility towards her work, but that glass of milk tonight changed Jin Xi's thoughts a bit.

Zan Zan is a living, breathing person, and a three-year-old child whose sense of right and wrong is still being formed.

A child is like a blank sheet of paper; the way he becomes as an adult is shaped by the people and events around him.

If given the right guidance and enough security, he is actually quite willing to open his heart to the world.

Jinxi didn't intend to mold Zanzan into any particular type of person.

She just hoped that at least when she was by his side, Zan Zan could sleep peacefully.

Jinxi was brought back to her senses when her phone beeped softly. She gently shook Zanzan, but he was unresponsive and fast asleep.

She stared at Zan Zan's face for a while, and finally smiled. Such a cute and fun baby, it would be such a pity if he turned into a big villain.

Jinxi took a deep breath, tucked the blanket around him, and then turned over slightly, thinking it was some unimportant text message.

But I never expected him to be such an unexpected person.

[Zhou Linxu: Are you asleep?]
