Transmigrated into a wealthy family's stepmother, I raised the villain into a sweet child.
Chapter 70 The Little Fox
When Jinxi received Zanzan's call, she was a little dazed. After a moment, she answered quickly and asked, "What's wrong, Mr. Zanzan?"
She hadn't forgotten how poised the child looked when he wore his suit this morning.
Zan Zan on the other end of the phone asked, "Where are you?"
Jinxi turned her head and glanced at the temple behind her: "I'm about to go eat now. Have you and Dad eaten yet?"
"I ate just a little bit." Zan Zan asked again on the other end of the phone, "Where are you?"
Why does he keep asking where she is? Does this child miss her?
Jinxi curled the corners of her lips and replied as she walked, "At the entrance of the Holy Water Temple, what's wrong?"
"Come pick me up," Zan Zan said, his voice muffled on the other end. "I'm so bored."
Jinxi asked in confusion, "What did your dad take you to do?"
Zan Zan didn't hide it from her: "He brought me to the dinner party."
Jinxi understood. Adults at dinner parties talk about adult topics, but praising a child is something a child can't understand or learn, so naturally, it's boring.
She said, "Okay, I'll ask your dad where you are."
Zan Zan said, "Then hurry up and come pick me up."
He really didn't want to be tossed around like a punching bag by a group of men. After being tossed around a couple of times, he felt like the water in his brain was being shaken out.
Jinxi agreed, hung up the phone, and sent a message to Zhou Linxu.
[Jinxi: President Zhou, where are you?]
Zhou Linxu's phone rang. He looked down and saw it was a message from Jin Xi.
Zhou Linxu sent her his location: [Have you finished meeting up with friends?]
[Jinxi: I just finished work. Your son called me and asked me to come pick him up; he's bored.]
When Zhou Linxu saw the message, he looked up at Zan Zan, who had somehow shrunk into a corner. Zan Zan had his back to them and was secretly doing something.
It turns out he was calling Jinxi.
Zhou Linxu withdrew his gaze: [Are you coming over?]
[Jinxi: On the road, are you finished?]
Zhou Linxu glanced at Zan Zan again. He had already climbed onto the sofa and was curled up there, looking aloof.
When he first arrived, he played happily with the uncles, but later, for some reason, he suddenly became unhappy. It's hard to understand a child's mind yet.
Moreover, it's clear that Zan Zan really prefers being with Jin Xi. In the morning, he not only suggested going out with Jin Xi, but after finally getting together with him, he secretly called Jin Xi again after only a short time.
That said, Zan Zan hasn't even used his Little Genius watch to call him yet.
Zhou Linxu pursed his thin lips slightly: "It's over. When are you arriving? Zanzan and I are waiting for you at the door."
[Jinxi: Uncle Li said about ten minutes.]
Ten minutes later, Jinxi arrived at the entrance of the private club on time. Before she even went in, she saw Zhou Linxu coming out holding Zanzan's hand.
The two, one adult and one child, got into the car, and Jinxi asked in confusion, "How did you get here?"
"Drive." Zhou Linxu looked into her eyes. "Someone will drive the car home later."
Jinxi exclaimed "Wow!" and said, "That's great! I've seen it for myself."
After greeting Zhou Linxu, only Zanzan, who was sitting in the middle of them, remained.
Jinxi looked down at Zanzan and asked with a smile, "Mr. Zanzan, are you happy to see me?"
Zhou Yanqian only gave her a look that said, "You know what I mean."
Jinxi smiled and ruffled his hair twice, then had Uncle Li drive to the nearest shopping mall.
She asked, "What did you have for lunch today, Zan Zan?"
Zhou Yanqian didn't actually eat much. The table was rotating automatically, and he couldn't grip the chopsticks properly, so he could only pick up a little bit of food. It was difficult to eat, so he simply stopped eating.
Zhou Linxu replied, "The lunch wasn't to his liking."
He watched as Zan Zan barely touched his chopsticks before getting off the table, which was strange, since he seemed to have a good appetite at home.
Upon hearing Zhou Linxu's reply, Zhou Yanqian couldn't help but turn and glance at him.
Zhou Linxu asked, "What's wrong?"
Zhou Yanqian commented, "You're not smart."
Not only are they not smart, they're also blind!
Even though it was clearly him who couldn't pick it up, Zhou Linxu didn't seem to help him pick up anything.
When it's his turn to shine, he's completely oblivious; he's hopeless and incredibly stupid.
Zhou Linxu was even more confused, but he was very familiar with what Zanzan was looking at.
It means disdain.
He was disliked again.
Zhou Linxu couldn't help but sigh inwardly. Children's emotions are like the weather, changing in an instant.
However, he also kept in mind what Jinxi had told him: if Zan Zan spoke, no matter what he said, he needed to respond to him, otherwise next time, he would be ignored.
He might even have to wait until he's in a better mood before he'll talk to you.
Zhou Linxu replied, "Yes, as long as you're a smart kid, that's fine."
There seemed to be a hint of helplessness in his tone.
Jinxi pursed her lips and secretly smiled. For some reason, Zhou Linxu looked like he was having a very hard time and was helpless.
Sure enough, even powerful figures who dominate the outside world have to obediently bow their heads and coax human cubs.
Upon hearing Zhou Linxu's words, Zhou Yanqian's eyebrows relaxed considerably, and his upper body straightened up noticeably, almost unconsciously.
Zhou Linxu keenly observed Zanzan's changes, and the helplessness in his heart turned into a smile.
Jinxi is absolutely right; Zanzan is a child who loves to be praised.
That bad temper of his is definitely inherited 100%.
Uncle Li drove them to the nearest shopping mall. Jinxi took Zanzan's hand and asked, "Do you want to eat more?"
"I can have a little with you," Zhou Yanqian said modestly, "but I don't eat much."
Jinxi couldn't help but rub his cheek again: "Baby, what's wrong with you today? I almost don't recognize you."
She couldn't help but look at Zhou Linxu standing to the side again. Zhou Linxu understood what she meant and said in a flat tone, "I didn't teach anything."
Jin Xi was even stranger. Zhou Yanqian removed her mischievous hand from his face, as Jin Xi had ruined his hairstyle!
The shopping mall here is quite large. I haven't been to Jinxi before. Today happens to be the weekend, so there are quite a lot of children here.
Jin Xi and Zhou Linxu had a particularly high chance of turning around, and Zhou Linxu seemed to accept these gazes quite well.
Jin Xi breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Mr. Zhou, is there anything you'd like to eat?"
"Don't worry about me," Zhou Linxu said. "I've already eaten."
Fine, Jinxi will really leave him alone.
She took Zan Zan's hand and went upstairs. She originally planned to just have a bowl of noodles and then wander around in the afternoon. She actually quite likes shopping malls. She didn't plan to buy anything, just wander around aimlessly.
After looking around for most of the day, Jinxi finally spotted something she had never eaten before.
Tomato Chicken.
It was peak dining time at the restaurant, but they were lucky enough to have cleared out a corner seat.
Jinxi originally intended to sit alone, but as soon as she sat down, Zanzan squeezed in.
Jinxi ordered the food, then lowered her head slightly and said to him, "Your dad can take care of you while you eat. You can sit across from me."
Zan Zan pretended not to hear and instead made a request: "Xiao Xi, I want to drink milk tea."
Jinxi yawned: "I want to drink too."
Zhou Yanqian blinked. He had just come up and noticed a milk tea shop next to the escalator. It was the same brand that he and Jinxi had drunk at the airport yesterday.
Jinxi thought for a moment and said, "I'll go buy it."
After saying that, he prepared to get up, but Zhou Linxu said, "I'll go."
Jin Xi looked at Zhou Linxu and hesitated for a moment before replying, "Okay."
Then he looked down at Zan Zan and said, "You go with your dad."
Zhou Yanqian didn't want to go, but before he could say anything, Jin Xi replied, "Dad doesn't know what we're going to drink. I'm so tired today, I don't want to go. You go with Dad."
Zhou Linxu caught Jin Xi's gaze and nodded, "Zan Zan, please come with me."
What a hassle. I should have just said I wanted a drink.
Zhou Yanqian had no choice but to slide down from his seat and walk away holding Zhou Linxu's hand.
Jinxi is holding his head in his hands, which suggests that the relationship between father and son has been repaired quite well.
Yesterday they were in dire straits, but today Zan Zan is willing to let Zhou Linxu hold his hand.
She knew it! Zan Zan must have been angry for a moment, otherwise she wouldn't have spent so long with Zhou Linxu today.
Jinxi's phone lit up. She picked it up and glanced at it; it was a message from Zhou Linxu: "What would you like to drink?"
Jinxi sent him the request, and about ten minutes later, the father and son returned with milk tea.
Zhou Yanqian couldn't help but say, "So many people."
They waited a long time.
Just then, the tomato chicken that Jinxi ordered arrived at the table. She hadn't heard clearly and asked, "What?"
Zhou Yanqian repeated, "So many people."
Jinxi replied, "Of course, it's the weekend, so it's bound to be crowded. It'll be much better on weekdays."
She took the milk tea from Zhou Linxu and smiled at him, saying, "Thank you, Mr. Zhou."
Zhou Linxu's gaze lingered on her small face for a few seconds before he simply hummed in agreement.
Jinxi inserted the straw and was about to take a sip of her iced milk tea when she noticed Zanzan glancing at the milk tea in her hand several times.
Their milk tea is different.
She sighed. Sometimes, being too smart is a sin.
Jinxi held the milk tea to his lips: "You are only allowed to take a small sip."
Zhou Yanqian said "oh" and thought to himself, "I'm going to take a big bite anyway."
Mmm, it tastes good too, it's osmanthus flavored.
Following Jin Xi, Zhou Yanqian unlocked many things he had never tried in his previous life.
Jinxi put the iced milk tea aside and picked up a chicken leg for Zanzan: "Eat up, you've gotten thinner in just one morning."
Zhou Yanqian took several sips of his milk tea, and without being polite, he slowly put on his gloves and started gnawing on a chicken leg.
Zhou Linxu sat opposite them. Zan Zan was happily munching on a chicken leg, his eyes slightly narrowed, like a satiated and adorable little fox, looking very content.
Not only that, Zan Zan also imitated Jin Xi, holding a small spoon and pouring some broth onto the chicken leg.
This tomato chicken (chew, chew, chew) is really delicious (chew, chew, chew). He wants to make it at home from now on (chew, chew, chew)...
As Zhou Yanqian chewed, he noticed Zhou Linxu's gaze across from him.
He slowed down his chewing and subconsciously tried to be more elegant and dignified.
Jinxi exclaimed, "Baby, you're amazing! You ate it all up so clean. You're such a good baby. You don't make Daddy and Xiaoxi worry about your meals at all. Do you want some potatoes? Potatoes are delicious too."
Zhou Yanqian hummed in agreement: "I'll just have a little bit."
In an instant, the idea of being elegant and dignified was thrown to the back of one's mind.
Tomato chicken, delicious!
