Su Lang was already used to his expression, so she carried him out to wash his bottom and change his diaper.

Only when he's been made comfortable will this kid be able to sleep peacefully.

It's as if he and Su Lang are sworn enemies. Whenever Su Lang gets close to Lin Zhilan, this kid will wake up no matter how soundly he's sleeping. As soon as Su Lang hugs him, he'll be fine again and even grin at him.

Sometimes Su Lang even wanted to throw this kid out.

He only found an opportunity when Li Jiang returned.

After finishing dinner, Su Lang went out to walk her son as usual, and ran into Li Jiang, who had just returned.

Li Jiang took off his hat, leaned over to look, and said, "Wow, your son is good-looking."

Like a soft, fluffy white steamed bun, with chubby cheeks, big, round, and bright eyes, and rolls of baby fat on its arms, it looks sturdy and soft.

As if he understood that Li Jiang was praising him, Su Li even smiled at him, revealing a toothless grin.

Li Jiang chuckled even more, "This kid can understand?"

Su Lang was silent for a few seconds, then said, "...He probably likes you."

"Really?" Li Jiang was flattered.

"Really," Su Lang nodded, "would you like to try giving me a hug?"

When Wang Rousheng gave birth to Li Xuan, Li Jiang was not by her side.

When he came back, Li Xuan could already say a few simple words.

Li Jiang had never held such a small child before.

Su Lang gave him some pointers on his posture and placed the child in his arms.

Li Jiang looked at Su Li nervously, and the next second, Su Li gave him a soft smile.

"Oh, so you really like me."

Su Lang said calmly, "How is it? Do you like it?"

Li Jiang nodded, "I like it, I like it."

"Then I'll let you take care of it for a day."

"What?" Li Jiang looked up, stunned.

Su Lang said, "I'll let you experience the joy of raising a child."

Li Jiang hurriedly picked up the child and followed him, saying, "You're kidding, right?"

Su Lang showed him through his actions that he was not joking.

"You can feed him a bottle and change his diaper later. He can sleep until wake-up time tomorrow morning. It's easy."

Li Jiang looked down at Su Li in his arms, then at the baby bottle, formula, and diapers that had been handed to him, and was a little taken aback.

Su Lang patted Li Jiang on the shoulder, "You've worked hard. I'll treat you to a meal at a restaurant another day."

"Eh..."

Li Jiang wanted to say something, but Su Lang glanced at him briefly and closed the courtyard gate.

Li Jiang stood outside the door, looking down at Su Li in his arms.

The child was looking at him with his round eyes, blowing bubbles at him, not shy at all.

"Kid, cry a couple of times and call your dad out."

Su Li smiled at him again, as if it were a joke.

Li Jiang muttered to himself, "Isn't this child being quite obedient? Why does your father act like he can't wait to throw you away?"

Li Xuan was already asleep, while Aunt Hehua was still enjoying the cool air in the yard.

Seeing her son holding a child, she quickly went over to look and asked, "Who did you bring back?"

Li Jiang laughed and said, "It's from the Su family. He said he'd let me rest for a day."

Aunt Lotus: "..."

Li Jiang was still holding Su Li to show his mother, "Look at him, he's even smiling at me."

Aunt Lotus likes Su Li.

In fact, Li Xuan's personality was similar to Su Li's when he was a child.

At that time, Wang Rou's health was not good, and she often cried, which worried Aunt Hehua.

Li Jiang wasn't around, so she took care of both her grandson and daughter-in-law, and managed to get through it all.

Su Li is genuinely likable when she's being charming, but when she gets into trouble, she's too old to handle it now.

Seeing her son bring Su Li over, Aunt Hehua quickly waved her hand, "Alright, alright, take her if you want, and experience the hardships of raising a child."

She stood up with a palm-leaf fan in her hand and hurried back to her room.

Li Jiang chuckled and carried the child back into the house.

Wang Rou was sitting on the bed reading a book when she heard the noise. She immediately put down the book, lay down, and closed her eyes.

After they talked things out, the couple had a period of peace.

The child is already ten years old, but the two are still like they're in a puppy love relationship, constantly testing each other's boundaries.

Just as they were making some progress, Li Jiang was sent on a mission.

It's probably because intimacy between people largely depends on touch, close eye contact, and spending time together. If you're separated for too long, your body will adapt to being alone.

After not seeing him for more than half a year, Wang Rou felt subconsciously reserved and instinctively felt a sense of distance when she saw him again.

Li Jiang didn't feel any sense of alienation.

However, when he got home that morning, he noticed that Wang Rou was uncomfortable.

This is why Li Jiang brought the child back.

With a child around, Wang Rou should feel more at ease.

Wang Rou's skill at pretending to be asleep wasn't very good.

Her eyelashes were fluttering; it was obviously an act.

Li Jiang stood by the bed, holding Su Li in his arms, a slight smile playing on his lips, but he didn't expose her.

"Xiaorou, are you asleep?"

Wang Rou's eyes twitched slightly beneath her eyelids, but she remained silent.

Just as Li Jiang was wondering how to start the conversation, Su Li in his arms suddenly exclaimed, "Ah!"

Wang Rou frowned slightly and opened her eyes, pretending to have been woken up.

Li Jiang sat on the edge of the bed, and Wang Rou spotted Su Li at a glance.

"Hmm, why did you bring him back?"

Li Jiang laughed and said, "Old Su said he'd give me a day to rest."

He seemed quite happy. Wang Rou glanced at him, then teased Su Li with her finger, casually asking, "Can you?"

Wang Rou naturally knew how difficult Su Li was to deal with.

When she's being charming, she's genuinely likable; when she gets rowdy, only Su Lang can handle her.

Li Jiang has been conscripted by Su Lang.

Li Jiang smiled and stared into her eyes. "You can teach me."

Wang Rou avoided his gaze and teased Su Li.

Li Jiang hadn't washed up yet, but seeing the two of them having fun, he thought he should put Su Li on the bed.

The moment her bottom touched the sheets, Su Li burst into tears.

"Xiaorou, what's wrong with him?"

Li Jiang was at a loss and quickly picked the boy up again.

Seeing his flustered state, Wang Rou couldn't help but smile.

Are you hungry?

Li Jiang suddenly realized what was going on and quickly went to get the milk powder and bottles.

Seeing him walking around with the child in his arms, Wang Rou told him to put the child next to her and then taught him how to make formula.

When Li Jiang came in after letting the boiled water cool down and preparing the milk powder, he saw Wang Rou sitting sideways, comforting the child.

Her hair was loosely tied up, with a few stray strands falling beside her cheeks, which made Su Li reach out her small hand to grab it. Wang Rou would then smile gently and lightly tap Su Li's nose with her finger.

Li Jiang stood by the door, stunned.

Until Wang Rou looked over, "Is it ready? Why didn't you bring it over?"

Li Jiang took on the tasks himself, and Wang Rou didn't lift a finger; she taught him how to breastfeed and burp the baby.

Li Jiang was a little clumsy when breastfeeding his child for the first time, but he managed to complete the process.

He breathed a sigh of relief after patting the baby's back to burp.

Su Li's head was nodding, as if she was about to fall asleep.

Just as Li Jiang was about to put him on the bed, the boy started crying again.

Now Li Jiang finally realized that Su Lang had tricked him.
