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

"Yes, Huahua."

Mu Chen put Xiao Ranran down on the ground, carefully straightened his clothes, and then let go.

Little Ranran clenched her little fists, pouted her little face, and took a few steps, stumbling and unsteady as she walked forward.

Jiang Wen and Mu Chen followed behind, keeping a close eye on the little guy, afraid he might fall.

Fortunately, no one was on the rooftop, otherwise, Xiao Ranran wouldn't be so free.

It rained last night and continued until this morning. The air is still relatively fresh, but there are a few small puddles on the ground.

When Xiao Ranran saw the puddle, she hesitated for a moment before turning to look at Mu Chen and Jiang Wen.

They noticed Jiang Wen holding his phone with a serious expression, while Mu Chen was looking at the flowers in the flower bed.

Little Ranran quietly lifted her foot, preparing to step into the puddle.

Mu Chen happened to turn her head and saw his little movement, and hurriedly called out, "Baby!"

clatter--

The little feet, wearing white shoes, landed steadily in the puddle, splashing water all around in the next second.

When Mu Chen came over and scooped him up, he saw Xiao Ranran smiling at him and clapping her little hands.

"Hey bro, let's play!"

Seeing the water droplets on his body and the smile on his face, Mu Chen had no choice but to swallow her words and gently wipe the water droplets from his face.

Jiang Wen laughed when he saw this scene, and even went over to hold Xiao Ranran's hand.

"Little one likes playing in the water, huh? There's more over there. Come on, let Uncle take you over there."

As he spoke, he picked up the little guy and walked towards the big puddle over there.

Mu Chen was stunned. He ran over to stop him, but suddenly heard a hearty laugh.

Xiao Ranran was splashing in the water, and Jiang Wen was on the opposite side splashing with her. The water was splashing everywhere, but it looked especially beautiful.

Given all this, what words could one possibly use to refuse?

Oh well, as long as the baby likes it.

Mu Chen sat on the swing to the side, watching them play in the water.

When Jiang Wen brought Xiao Ranran back, her clothes and face were covered in water droplets, leaving Mu Chen speechless.

Ugh

Fortunately, there were clothes in Uncle Lu's office break room; otherwise, it would have been difficult to explain.

"Do you want to play again?" If he didn't want to play anymore, he would take him to change his clothes, otherwise Uncle Lu would be angry if he saw him later.

Xiao Ranran looked left and right, then pointed to a puddle in the distance and said, "Pot, pot."

She looked at Mu Chen with expectant eyes.

Mu Chen: ...

Just then, Jiang Wen came over. His pants were also covered in water droplets, but luckily there was no mud, otherwise they would have been covered in mud.

Mu Chen grabbed Jiang Wen's arm, "Little one, let Uncle Jiang take you there."

Xiao Ranran turned her head away, while Jiang Wen looked puzzled. Where to?

When Jiang Wen saw the puddle in the distance, he fell silent.

"Sweetie, let's not play anymore, okay?" I'm all wet, I'll get scolded if I go down in a bit.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Ranran immediately pouted, turned around, and listlessly snuggled into Mu Chen's arms, "Brother..."

Susu won't take me with her.

Mu Chen helplessly hugged him, while Jiang Wen couldn't bear to see the little guy cry, so he immediately squatted down, took his little arm and coaxed him, "Come on, Uncle will take the little baby to play."

"But once you've played with this, you can't play it anymore."

Xiao Ranran readily agreed and happily followed Jiang Wen, followed by the sound of splashing in the water.

When Lu Lingzhou came up after the meeting, he saw Mu Chen on the swing but didn't see Xiao Ranran. He asked, "Where's Xiao Guai?"

Where did they go? Jiang Wen is also missing.

Mu Chen pointed to the puddle over the flower bed, "Go splash in the water there."

"tread water?"

Lu Lingzhou followed his finger and saw Jiang Wen playing happily with his son splashing in puddles.

He rubbed his forehead, exasperated. "Why didn't you stop him?"

Mu Chen: "The baby likes it."

Four words were enough to defeat Lu Lingzhou.

His son likes it, so what else can we do? That's all we can do.

"How long have you been stepping on it?" Are your clothes wet?

Mu Chen: "I don't know when, this is the third puddle I've stepped in."

Lu Lingzhou: ...

It's definitely wet, especially the pants.

We had to stop it, or our clothes would get wet.

Lu Lingzhou lowered his hand. "Little darling."

Xiao Ranran, who was about to splash in the puddles, suddenly stopped and turned around. When she saw Lu Lingzhou, she instantly smiled and exclaimed happily, "Plop plop~"

Waving her little hand, she walked step by step toward Lu Lingzhou.

Seeing the little guy's healing smile, Lu Lingzhou no longer cared about being angry; his mind and eyes were filled with the little guy running towards him.

He smiled and walked over, squatted down, and caught the little guy who ran towards him, his arms filled with the scent of milk.

His little cub, unfortunately, doesn't belong to him alone.

Ugh

"Bang bang~ bag~"

The little cub stretched out its tiny hands and tried to stand on tiptoe, wanting Lu Lingzhou to hold it.

"Okay, Daddy will hug me."

Lu Lingzhou picked him up, but as soon as his hand touched his clothes, he was startled by a wet sensation.

Why is it so wet?

He looked down and saw that his trousers, especially the part next to his shoes, were completely wet.

The veins on Lu Lingzhou's forehead were bulging; he wanted to hit the child.

In this freezing weather, they went to play in the water and got their pants wet. If there had been just a little more water, their identities would have been exposed.

Lu Lingzhou held back his temper for a while before he could control himself, especially since the child was still young and needed careful guidance.

Hold back your anger.

It's just that my pants got wet; I can just change them.

It's okay, it's okay. I won't hold it against him because the little one in my arms is so well-behaved. I'll talk to him nicely in a bit, and he'll understand.

Yes, you will definitely understand.

call--

calm.

Seeing his expression change repeatedly, Mu Chen silently lowered her head and remained silent, trying to minimize her presence.

He knew that Lu Lingzhou was definitely angry.

Look at those pants, they're practically dripping wet.

The puddle wasn't very big, but there was a lot of water, especially when it splashed and no one dodged; it would be strange if you didn't get wet.

I'll have to be more careful next time.

Lu Lingzhou was about to go downstairs with the baby in his arms when Jiang Wen came over.

"Are you leaving? Aren't you going to play anymore?"

The last four words hit Lu Lingzhou's sore spot, making Mu Chen silently mourn for him for a few seconds.

How did someone with such low intelligence manage to get into the position of special assistant?

Sure enough, the next second, Lu Lingzhou exploded.

"How dare you ask? Look at his wet pants, what if he catches a cold?"

"Does he not understand, and neither do you?"

"Jiang Wen, sometimes it's not that I don't want you to have contact with Ranran, but can you be a little more reliable?"

"Look at today's weather, and then look at Ranran. He's only a little over a year old. He's weak and has a poor immune system. He'll catch a cold if we're not careful. If he catches a cold and it gets bad, Ranran will be the one who suffers in the end."

"Think about it carefully yourself."

Talking about it too much is exhausting.

Lu Lingzhou carried Xiao Ranran away, leaving Jiang Wen looking remorseful. Mu Chen patted his arm and comforted him, "Don't be angry, Uncle Lu was just worried about the baby."

"I also have a responsibility. Seeing my son smiling happily and knowing he likes it, I didn't stop him."
