After coming ashore, the little mermaid was pampered by his five fathers.

Looking at the little cub nestled in his arms, Lu Lingzhou picked him up and walked towards his desk.

Sit down in the chair and place the baby on his lap.

Xiao Ranran raised her head, her bright black eyes looking at Jiang Wen and Li Rui. Then she gave Li Rui a cute smile and quickly hid in Lu Lingzhou's arms.

Judging by the timeline, he and Li Rui had known each other for quite some time, so they were somewhat familiar with each other.

Seeing the young master smile at him, Li Rui was in an extremely good mood. He almost couldn't resist rushing up, snatching the young master from his boss's hands, and then showering his little face with kisses.

Well-behaved cubs need to make smacking noises.

Jiang Wen pursed his lips, clearly not in a good mood.

What if my little one is afraid of him?

I should have been more composed when we met today. Now look what's happened, I don't know how to smooth things over.

Ugh

sigh.

After reading the documents, Lu Lingzhou picked up the cub and stood up. "You guys handle the rest. I'm taking the child home first."

To put it bluntly, it means I'm off work, you guys can keep working overtime.

Jiang Wen: ...

Li Rui: ...

What a blatant example of a CEO skipping work!

He actually went back to pet his kids and then left them here to work.

That's really too much.

Lu Lingzhou filled a small water bottle with warm water and handed it to the little one in his arms, saying, "Hold it and drink slowly."

Afraid that the little one might drop it, she hung the blue ribbon around her neck.

"Um."

Little Ranran obediently reached out and grasped the two handles of the water bottle, then put the straw in her mouth and began to drink.

Lu Lingzhou picked up the small schoolbag from the coffee table, hung it on his arm, and prepared to leave with Xiao Ranran in his arms.

"Come on, little one, say goodbye to the uncles."

Looking at Jiang Wen and Li Rui, who were full of anticipation, Xiao Ranran mustered up her courage, raised her little hand, and waved gently.

"Beep beep~"

The way Bai Bai said it was really cute.

"Goodbye, young master, come play again next time." Li Rui waved back, secretly wanting to snatch the young master away even more.

Jiang Wen went straight up, but didn't get too close. He reached out and held the boy's small hand, which was soft and warm.

He smiled gently and said, "Goodbye, little one. Uncle will come to play with you in a bit."

"How about bringing a small cake for the little one?"

Xiao Ranran knew he was Lu Lingzhou's friend and not a bad person, but she was still a little scared.

She gently withdrew her little hand, pursed her lips, and turned to lean against Lu Lingzhou.

"Beep beep~"

The little girl called out to Lu Lingzhou in a soft, childlike voice.

Lu Lingzhou patted his back to comfort him, then looked at Jiang Wen: "I'll take him back first. If you're free tonight, you can come over for dinner."

Jiang Wen understood perfectly well that this was giving him a chance.

"Okay, I understand."

But the estimate is uncertain.

This boss is a hands-off manager; he has to handle the rest one by one.

Even if an opportunity were presented to him, he might not be able to seize it.

Jiang Wen had a strong urge to beat up the boss.

Lu Lingzhou carried the cub away.

Little Ranran perched on his shoulder, looking at Jiang Wen who was watching him. After thinking for a moment, she raised her little hand and waved, then quickly withdrew it.

Ranran said goodbye.

Jiang Wen saw the little boy's little gesture and reached out to respond.

What a good boy.

Even though I'm scared, I'm trying to take this step bravely.

He decided to stop thinking about it and get on with his business so he could try to get a free meal at Lu Garden tonight.

Lu Lingzhou returned to Lu Garden with the little cub in his arms. As soon as he entered the living room, Mu Chen came downstairs.

"Mr. Lu, little one."

Previously, Mu Chen had always called him Little Prince, but Lu Lingzhou told him that this would expose Xiao Ranran's identity and cause trouble, so he changed it.

As a servant, he could not call his master by his name directly, so he called him Xiao Ranran Zaizai.

Perfect timing, since Xiao Ranran is also a cub, it makes perfect sense and won't expose her.

To outsiders, Mu Chen is Xiao Ranran's older brother.

Little Ranran was very familiar with Muchen and happily waved her little hand at him.

Lu Lingzhou brought Xiao Ranran to the living room.

Because of Xiao Ranran, who couldn't walk yet, Lu Lingzhou rearranged the living room.

Now, the entire open space in front of the projector, up to the sofa, has been covered with a soft, clean carpet, while the coffee table has been placed aside.

Lu Lingzhou placed Xiao Ranran on the living room carpet and asked Muchen to play with him before preparing to go upstairs to change his clothes.

"Little one is playing in the living room. Daddy is going upstairs to change his clothes and will be down in a bit."

Little Ranran held the toy and nodded: "Mmm."

After Lu Lingzhou went upstairs, Mu Chen sat down next to him to keep him company.

"Baby."

"Um."

Xiao Ranran turned to look at Mu Chen, then giggled and jumped into his arms, nuzzling his chin.

Mu Chen has been with Ran Ran since she was fifty years old. They have been together for a hundred years, so their bond is naturally very deep.

Mu Chen hugged Xiao Ranran's small body and stroked his little face.

"Little one, how about your big brother teaches you human language?"

Being unable to speak is ultimately inconvenient.

He has also learned a lot about human beings these past few days, and his speech has become much more fluent.

He also learned that human babies at this age can already speak many words and walk.

Although Xiao Ranran is different, she still needs to keep up with the pace to avoid trouble.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Ranran looked at Mu Chen with bright eyes and nodded happily, "Mm."

He wants to learn human language so he can speak as soon as possible.

"Okay, let's take it slow then."

"First, let's learn from the older brother, the older brother."

Little Ranran opened her mouth, trying hard to straighten her disobedient little tongue.

"all."

"elder brother."

"Pot, pot."

"elder brother."

"Pot, pot."

Mu Chen: ...

Okay, whatever, he's still young, let's take it slow.

Lu Lingzhou changed his clothes and went downstairs, where he saw Mu Chen teaching Xiao Ranran to speak.

Hearing those repeated "guoguo" sounds, Lu Lingzhou's eyes were full of smiles.

The housekeeper came out of the kitchen carrying fruit and saw the smile on Lu Lingzhou's face.

I was a little dazed, but also a little relieved.

He has lost count of how many times the patriarch has smiled since the young master arrived.

All I know is that the head of the family is very happy.

This place is no longer deserted; it has a human touch now.

It's all because of the young master.

"Children, come and have some fruit to fill your stomachs." The butler looked at the two children with a loving expression.

Mu Chen thanked him very politely, "Thank you, Uncle."

Butler: "You're welcome."

Upon seeing Lu Lingzhou come down, the butler left on his own.

"Little darling."

Little Ranran was eating grapes that Mu Chen handed her when she heard the sound. She looked up and saw Lu Lingzhou. She immediately climbed over the carpet with her little hands.

Not being able to walk doesn't mean he can't crawl.

"Beep beep~"

Lu Lingzhou squatted on the edge of the carpet, watching Xiao Ranran crawl towards him little by little, and then successfully jump into his arms.

"Beep beep~"

The little boy's voice was full of joy as Lu Lingzhou held him in his arms.

"Daddy's here, my sweet baby."

"You're so great, baby."
