Half an hour later, Zhou Linxu appeared in the children's room on time.

The only light in the children's room was a dim nightlight. Zan Zan was lying in bed, listening to Jin Xi read a storybook.

When Jinxi saw him come in, she beckoned to him, slowly stood up, and placed the storybook into his hands.

Zhou Linxu looked down at the storybook in his hand. The other end of the storybook was being held by a fair and slender hand. He followed the hand and his gaze gradually moved upward, until he saw Jin Xi's bright eyes.

Jinxi smiled slightly at him and whispered, "It'll be almost done after a little while."

After saying that, she naturally turned back to look at Zan Zan, who was already half asleep on the bed. She had just said that he could play for half an hour, but after playing with him for a while, she found that it was more comfortable for Zan Zan to close his eyelids.

She withdrew her hand and gestured for Zhou Linxu to leave.

Zhou Linxu nodded, and then she left quietly.

After gently closing the door, Jinxi happily hummed a little tune.

Oh my, she's absolutely a genius!

In the original owner's memory, Zhou Linxu didn't come back very often. Even when he did come back to see the children, he would go back to sleep at the villa near the company late at night.

But today, Zhou Linxu and his driver took a long detour to pick them up from the airport, and as soon as they got out of the car, Uncle Li drove off, clearly indicating that Zhou Linxu was going to sleep at home tonight.

She had only casually mentioned asking Zhou Linxu to sleep with Zanzan when she got off the bus.

This is perfect; it solves Zhou Linxu's problem of not knowing where to sleep.

Although Zhou Linxu and the original owner had a marriage of convenience, in the eyes of outsiders, they were a loving newlywed couple. Moreover, the agreement specifically stated that no one else should know about the agreement.

Moreover, apart from the nanny's room which has a bed, the only other rooms in the house with beds are the children's room and the master bedroom.

Zhou Linxu couldn't sleep in the nanny's room, nor could he sleep in the children's room every day, so when he was at home, he could only sleep in the same bed with her.

Wait, that's not right.

Jinxi suddenly realized that her support for Zhou Linxu to give Zanzan a bath just now meant that he should come home to stay more often, right?

Zhou Linxu shouldn't misunderstand anything, right?

Jinxi frowned, patted her forehead, and realized that she was too tired to think straight; she had completely forgotten about it.

It's too late to regret it now. I'll talk to Zhou Linxu when I have the chance.

Jinxi went up to the third floor. She was also very tired today. After looking at her phone for a while, she turned off the light and fell asleep.

Having a two-meter-wide bed all to myself is just so awesome!

"Knock knock knock!"

"Knock knock knock!"

Jinxi suddenly sat up in bed, her mind a little dazed, her ears filled with the sound of knocking on the door.

What time is it? Who's knocking on her door?

Jinxi forced herself to turn on the bedroom light, and sleepily walked over to open the door.

As soon as she opened the door, she saw Zhou Linxu standing in the doorway, his tall figure completely blocking the bedroom door. She was instantly wide awake: "Huh? What are you doing up here?"

Seeing the helplessness on Zhou Linxu's face, she became even more puzzled.

Then she saw Zhou Linxu's gaze shift downwards.

She also looked down.

Oh, and there's also a little thumbs up.

Zan Zan crossed her arms, looked up at him, her eyes red, as if she had been crying.

what's wrong?

Jinxi was fully awake. She bent down, picked up Zanzan, and asked gently, "What happened? Your eyes are as red as a little rabbit's."

All I got in return was a puffed-up face.

Jin Xi's gaze fell on Zhou Linxu, her eyes filled with a strong sense of inquiry.

Zhou Linxu said helplessly, "I don't know what's wrong with him."

He was fine at first, but then he suddenly woke up and burst into tears when he saw me beside him.

Zhou Linxu was just as flustered as Jin Xi was when she first saw him, and Zan Zan was silently shedding tears as she looked at him.

Finally, having run out of ideas, he suggested going up to find Jinxi.

That finally stopped the little one's tears.

Jinxi was even more confused. She wiped Zanzan's eyes and asked, "What's wrong, baby? Isn't Daddy with you?"

Zhou Yanqian looked at Jin Xi. How dare she bring this up again!

The moment Zhou Yanqian regained consciousness, he saw Zhou Linxu and was furious. Perhaps because he was only three years old, tears streamed down his face.

I felt so ashamed and angry that I couldn't stop crying.

It wasn't until Zhou Linxu mentioned Jinxi's name that he realized they had been playing a riddle there!

Okay! Then none of us will use umbrellas! He'll tear Jinxi's umbrella to shreds too!

Seeing that Zan Zan did not answer, Jin Xi turned to look at Zhou Linxu, who shook his head. He really did not know.

Just then, Zhou Yanqian raised one hand, grabbed Jinxi's chin, and forcefully turned her face to look at him.

Jin Xi raised an eyebrow slightly: "What's wrong, little tyrant?"

She looked at Zan Zan and her little mouth twitched, looking pitiful: "Xiao Xi."

Jinxi couldn't help but want to see Zhou Linxu again. What exactly happened?

However, Zan Zan kept pinching her chin, seemingly not wanting her to look at Zhou Linxu.

Jinxi could only patiently ask, "Baby, what's wrong? Why do you look so aggrieved?"

The next second, Zan Zan took a deep breath and said in a muffled voice, "I want to sleep with you all."

"Okay, okay, sleep with me." Jinxi agreed subconsciously.

Only after I agreed did I realize something was wrong.

Zan Zan was referring to "you all," not just "you" alone.

Jin Xi immediately corrected herself: "I misspoke."

She didn't dare look at Zhou Linxu's face at all. She said seriously, "Zanzan, you're a big kid now. I'm a girl, you shouldn't sleep with me. Go find your dad."

After Jin Xi finished speaking, she looked at Zhou Linxu, who was also frowning. After the two looked at each other, he relaxed his brows a little.

The two people don't need to say anything to understand what the other means.

Zhou Linxu stepped forward, stretched out his hands, and prepared to take Zanzan from Jinxi's arms.

Jinxi also slightly propped up her upper body, making it easier for Zhou Linxu to hug the child.

But Zhou Yanqian wouldn't be so easily fooled tonight. As soon as he saw Zhou Linxu raise his hand, he immediately wrapped his arms around Jinxi's neck and his legs around Jinxi's waist with great effort.

He doesn't even need Jinxi to lift a finger; he can cling to Jinxi firmly on his own.

Haha, if he's unhappy tonight, nobody else will be happy either!

Zhou Yanqian whispered firmly in her ear, "We're going to sleep together!"

After saying that, he buried his face completely, looking as if no one could help him.
