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

Jinxi was frowning at the moment. She never expected that she would come back to find Zanzan trembling and being bullied after only going to the toilet.

And Aunt Wang, how come she's everywhere?

If I hadn't arrived in time, Aunt Wang's slap would probably have hurt Zan Zan for days.

Jin Xi gave a cold, unfriendly smile: "What do you want to do?"

Aunt Wang's hands were in excruciating pain, so much so that she was covered in sweat, but she dared not say a word.

Yao Yao, who was standing nearby, recognized Jin Xi. He looked up and cried, "Aunt Jin, he was disobedient! This little bastard hit me first! He slapped my face and kicked my legs! He's a bad boy, Aunt Jin, please throw him away, boohoo—"

By the time Aunt Wang realized what her precious grandson had said, it was too late to cover her mouth.

Because of her screams, a crowd of onlookers began to gather around.

When everyone heard Yao Yao's words, they couldn't help but whisper among themselves.

Zhou Yanqian's face was also very bad. He should have hit the brat harder just now!

He remembered this humiliation...

Before Zhou Yanqian could finish his little scheme, he felt a hand gently pressing down on the back of his head, and his face naturally buried itself in Jin Xi's shoulder and neck.

He was somewhat bewildered.

What is this woman up to now?

Jinxi noticed someone secretly filming with their phone nearby. She took a deep breath and looked down at Yaoyao: "I'll have someone throw you out, you believe me?"

Then, looking at Aunt Wang, he said, "I had no idea you called my son a bastard in private. Have I been too good to you, causing you to lose your sense of direction?"

Aunt Wang was a little confused; she didn't really understand what her mother-in-law meant.

Didn't she usually hate this illegitimate son of the Zhou family the most? How come she's saying he's her son now?

Before Aunt Wang could say anything more, Jinxi said, "I remember your grandson took something from my son that was worth over ten thousand yuan. Are you going to hand it over yourself, or should I call the police?"

These words caused an uproar among everyone.

Something worth over ten thousand!

Zhou Yanqian couldn't help but want to raise his head when he heard this, but the hands pressing down on him were still gentle yet forceful, preventing him from lifting his head.

Jinxi noticed Zanzan's struggle, and she turned her head and whispered, "Baby, be good like this, and Mommy will buy you two ice creams later."

Aunt Wang immediately became anxious. She knew Jinxi's personality quite well, and if Jinxi really spoke up, it meant she would definitely do it.

She quickly said, "Madam, Madam, isn't there some misunderstanding? My Yaoyao is the most obedient boy; he would never take anything without permission!"

Jinxi merely glanced at Yaoyao, who was hiding behind Aunt Wang, and said lightly, "Are you going to tell me yourself, or let the police search you?"

Yao Yao had never seen anything like this before. He didn't know why the pretty aunt was being so fierce today, but he was genuinely afraid of the police, so he stammered, "That, that airplane model, it was, it was a gift from him..."

"This child is so well raised; he always brings home expensive things."

The sales assistant was standing at the store entrance. She spoke loudly, and the people gathered around to watch couldn't help but laugh.

Yao Yao was laughed at by others, and couldn't help but hide behind his grandmother, trying to hide his face so that others wouldn't see it. He tugged at his grandmother's clothes and whispered, "Grandma, I want to go home."

Aunt Wang's hands were in pain, and her heart was aching too. When had her grandson ever been so wronged?

She wanted to say something more, but Jinxi didn't want to say anything more: "If I don't see the complete and undamaged airplane model by noon today, you'd better be prepared to take responsibility for the consequences."

Is there anything Aunt Wang doesn't understand now? Jinxi is determined to avenge that little bastard today.

Her clothes were soaked with sweat, and she gritted her teeth: "...Okay."

Looking at Zan Zan's hands hanging by her side, Jin Xi simply let Zan Zan's legs wrap around her waist, and tilted her head to say, "Baby, wrap your arms around my neck."

Zhou Yanqian had been kept on his head by her, being manipulated like a doll. Hearing her say that, he paused for a moment, then wrapped his arms around her neck with mixed feelings.

How pathetic.

Zhou Yanqian couldn't help but think that he felt really pathetic right now.

After confirming that Zan Zan was properly attached to her, Jin Xi stepped forward, reached out and took Aunt Wang's hands, and with a little skillful force, Aunt Wang's dislocated hand was put back in place.

Jinxi lowered her voice and whispered in Aunt Wang's ear, "I advise you to act quickly and not try to pull any other tricks. Don't think the Zhou family is pushovers."

Aunt Wang felt a chill run down her spine after hearing that sentence. Yes.

Jinxi is the daughter-in-law of the Zhou family. Even if she is an illegitimate child, she still bears the surname Zhou.

They can crush themselves as easily as crushing an ant.

Aunt Wang's voice trembled slightly: "...Okay."

After saying that, she quickly took her grandson and left.

One of the parties involved had already left, and seeing this, the others also dispersed.

After most of the people had left, Jinxi shrugged slightly and asked, "Baby?"

Zhou Yanqian was able to straighten up in her arms. From the moment this woman appeared, he had been somewhat confused and puzzled.

She shouldn't have waited until Aunt Wang and that chubby boy had finished bullying her family before stepping in to be a good person or continuing to bully her along with them.

Why would they stop it?

Moreover, he heard everything she just said, and this woman was actually defending him!

More importantly, she actually admitted to being her mother in front of so many people. Wasn't this woman the one who hated being called "Mom" the most?

And the way she just protected herself...

Zhou Yanqian frowned as he looked at Jin Xi, only then realizing that he was still being held tightly in her arms.

Jinxi looked at him and pinched his cheek: "Were you scared? I'll take you to buy ice cream."

Zhou Yanqian finally came to his senses. He struggled to get down, but Jinxi didn't insist on carrying him. She gently placed him on the ground and then took her bag and phone back: "Baby is so amazing, you didn't drop anything."

Zhou Yanqian listened to her words and felt that he had some difficulty expressing himself.

If it's a new tactic, then he admits that this woman is really starting to use her brain.

Things are really taking an interesting turn.

Interestingly, Jinxi is actually quite happy right now.

She only knew that Aunt Wang's grandson had taken Zan Zan's things, but she didn't know exactly what they were. She never expected that a simple trick would reveal them today.

Now we can fire Aunt Wang without any burden.

Just then, the driver finally arrived. Jinxi asked him to take the sportswear she had bought, and then she took Zanzan to buy ice cream. She even asked for two small scoops and gave them all to Zanzan: "Eat up, baby, it's a reward for you. You were the bravest child today."

Zhou Yanqian looked at the ice cream cone in his hand, then looked up at Jinxi. Jinxi had just spotted a suitable shop and took his little hand to lead him inside.

Buying a watch was even faster, so they grabbed the latest children's watch, learned about its functions, and then readily paid for it.

Having bought everything she needed for the day, she knelt down to put it on Zan Zan and asked in a light tone, "Is there anything else you want? I'll buy it for you too."

Zhou Yanqian ate his ice cream cone with a blank expression.

I still want your life.

Of course, he couldn't say that out loud right now.

Jinxi was already used to Zanzan's taciturn nature. She affectionately patted his head and said, "Poor baby."

She has absolutely no resistance to cute things, and now she seems to understand that classic line from the domineering CEO.

Seriously, I'd give him my life for his cuteness.
