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

Jinxi saw Zanzan raise her head angrily and then realized that she had spoken too quickly.

She exclaimed, "Oh dear! Our baby always smells wonderful. You must have misheard me!"

Zhou Yanqian chuckled coldly, and was about to speak when Jin Xi covered his face: "Alright, you need to rest now. I'll give you a good back scrub when we get back."

Zhou Yanqian was immediately led astray; he could do it himself!

If all else fails, we'll just wait for Zhou Linxu to come back before scrubbing! Who wants her to scrub their back?!

Jinxi watched as Zanzan's eyes darted around, feeling both amused and guilty. This little rascal, how could he be so adorable making such a fuss?

Back home, Uncle Li helped move the bicycle to the backyard, and Jinxi didn't sit idle either, taking a long walk around the yard.

Zhou Yanqian, not understanding, followed Jin Xi with a small cake in his hand, asking, "What are you looking at?"

Jinxi said, "Didn't we say we were going to clear out a piece of land for you to farm?"

Zhou Yanqian's two light eyebrows furrowed tightly. When did he say he wanted to farm...?

He thought for a long time before finally remembering his few pictures of migrant workers.

Jinxi actually wanted to grow vegetables for him.

Jinxi added, "Actually, we could also plant a small tree, so it can grow up alongside the baby."

Zhou Yanqian followed, and Jinxi lowered her head and asked, "How about we plant osmanthus trees? We can plant a golden osmanthus and a yellow osmanthus. When they bloom in the fall, we can collect them and make osmanthus honey for you."

"How do you eat osmanthus honey?" Zhou Yanqian asked curiously. "Is it delicious?"

"It's delicious, it smells so good!" Jinxi said. "You can make a drink with water, or put some in small cakes. You can also put dried osmanthus flowers in sweet and sour pork ribs. When the flowers bloom, the whole house will smell wonderful. Oh, gardenias are good too. They will bloom in a few months and smell wonderful too."

"Alright then," Zhou Yanqian said, biting into a small cake. "That kind, I guess."

"Let's go to the market tomorrow. We need to get up early, or I won't take you." Jinxi had a plan in mind. In fact, planting some flowers, trees and shrubs can also cultivate children's patience and sense of responsibility, and make their emotions more stable.

Actually, we could send Zan Zan to some extracurricular classes, but Jin Xi thinks it's a bit too early. We should wait until he starts elementary school, right?

Then comes the crucial elementary school, followed by crucial middle school, high school, and university...

Indeed, every stage is crucial.

Zhou Yanqian wanted to free his head from Jin Xi's grasp, as his hairstyle had been completely messed up!

Zhou Yanqian took a big bite of the small cake and wrote a tally mark in his mental grudge book.

But the villain Jinxi was completely unaware and even intensified his actions.

When she returned in the evening, Jinxi told Zhou Linxu about planting trees and vegetables again.

The two of them toured the villa together. Zhou Linxu listened quietly to Jin Xi's plans and nodded, "You can arrange it."

They bought this villa specifically to bring Zan Zan back home, saying that a bigger house would give the child more space to play.

The yard is just planted with some flowers and plants; it has never been planned or designed.

When Zhou Linxu heard Jin Xi say this, he realized that there were so many plans that could be made.

He said, "Use my card to swipe it."

Jinxi said, "No need. How much would it cost to buy some seeds and trees? I already told Zanzan that we're planting osmanthus trees, and we can collect the flowers when they bloom."

"Okay." Zhou Linxu thought for a moment, "I'll find a designer to work with you. You can tell her your ideas, that way it will be more convenient for you."

"That's great! I was just worried about that, afraid it would turn out to be a mess." Jinxi smiled and said, "You're so thoughtful, Mr. Zhou."

"You can call me by my name." This was the second time he had said that.

Jinxi paused for a moment, then said, "I just started calling him President Zhou, and I completely forgot... Oh dear!!!"

She must have stepped on something, which distracted her, causing her to lose her balance and fall to the side.

Fortunately, Zhou Linxu reacted quickly, grabbing her arm and lending her a little strength so she could regain her balance.

After Jinxi steadied herself, she looked down and realized that she had stepped on a small stone. Because it was so dark at night, she couldn't see it at all unless she looked carefully.

"call--"

Jin Xi breathed a sigh of relief and muttered, "You scared me half to death!"

Only then did she notice that Zhou Linxu had grabbed her arm, preventing her from falling to the ground in such a miserable state. She said generously, "Thank you, Linxu, I almost got disfigured."

Zhou Linxu released his hand: "Be careful, let's go inside and talk."

Jinxi nodded, and just as the two of them were about to reach the front yard, they started chatting casually again.

It was as if that little incident had never happened.

Zhou Yanqian, standing in the backyard, watched the two figures disappear into the distance. After a moment's hesitation, he picked up his scooter and turned around.

Never mind, those two seem to be dating.

Wasn't he disliked by everyone in the past?

Zhou Yanqian is not one to be so tactless!

Unaware that they had been misunderstood, the two returned to the living room. Jinxi looked around and shouted loudly, "Zan Zan—"

Zan Zan then popped out from the back door.

Jinxi said, "Stop playing, let Daddy give you a bath."

I was so busy looking at the yard when I got back this afternoon that I left Zan Zan still wearing the clothes from today.

Moreover, Zan Zan no longer resists Zhou Linxu helping him take a bath. He rode his scooter up to Jin Xi and then coolly applied the brakes.

Very pleased with himself.

Jinxi exclaimed, "Where did you learn that arrogant attitude from?"

What stinky fart?

Zhou Yanqian feigned indifference, saying, "You speak very rudely."

What a sensible, intelligent, elegant, and perfect child he is! It's one thing for Jinxi not to be secretly happy, but she's actually muttering to herself here!

Jin Xi looked at Zhou Linxu: "Take him upstairs."

Zhou Linxu hummed in agreement and extended his hand to him.

Zhou Yanqian gently brushed his large hand across his palm; he didn't want to hold it.

But just then, Jinxi took his hand, squeezed it, and then solemnly placed it in Zhou Linxu's hand, instructing him, "You must scrub him tonight. He'll be all sweaty, and you'll be able to scrub off all the dirt."

Zhou Linxu subconsciously squeezed his son's little hand.

It's plump and soft, like squeezing cotton.

Jinxi said, "It's easy to squeeze, isn't it! Hehehe!"

As she spoke, she quickly took Zan Zan's other hand and couldn't help but squeeze it: "It feels so good to squeeze, I like to squeeze it too."

Zhou Yanqian: ...

Two crazy people!
