"Dad, Mom, Chen Ling, you guys go play in the living room. I'll tidy up here," Li Lili said hurriedly after dinner.

Just then, Chen's mother tried to say something, but Chen Ling led her back to the living room. Chen Ling knew that his mother wanted to tidy up herself so that Li Lili could go play for a while, so he simply took her away.

After they left, Li Lili quickly cleared the table of dishes, wanting to join them in playing games. It was one of her favorite things to do.

As a result, Li Lili sped up her work.

Chapter 365 Hiring a Nanny 2

Just then, Mr. and Mrs. Chen, along with Chen Ling, arrived in the living room and were ready to take their places. Meanwhile, Li Lili in the kitchen was also speeding up her cooking.

In no time, Li Lili finished her work and hurried back to the living room. There, she saw that Mr. Chen and Chen Ling had already begun their battle.

"Xiaoxue, are you good at playing games?" Chen's mother asked as soon as she saw Li Lili approaching.

"I'm fine, Mom. What's wrong? Do you want me to teach you how to play games?" Li Lili asked.

“Yes, yes, you can teach me when you have time,” Mrs. Chen quickly said.

“No problem, Mom, let me tell you, my gaming skills are even better than Chen Ling’s,” Li Lili whispered to Chen’s mother.

However, after hearing Li Lili's words, Chen's mother was very surprised and said in astonishment, "Ah? Are you serious? That would be wonderful."

"It's true, Mom. Why would I lie to you? I'll challenge Chen Ling to a duel in a bit, and then you'll see," Li Lili said calmly.

“No challenge needed. I knew you were better than Chen Ling. I could tell just by looking at your expression,” Chen’s mother said firmly.

Upon hearing Chen's mother's words, Li Lili couldn't stop laughing. Then Chen's mother said to Li Lili, "Xiaoxue, if you teach me well, I'll be even better than your father."

“Let me tell you, Mom, you definitely have a chance to beat Dad,” Li Lili said with a smile.

"That's good. Then find some time and you can start teaching me," Mrs. Chen said excitedly.

“Okay, Mom, it all depends on your schedule,” Li Lili said quickly.

At that moment, Chen's mother turned to look at the father and son who were playing games, thinking that she had to seize this opportunity for them.

"I think there's no time like the present, let's start teaching you today, okay?" Chen's mother turned to Li Lili and said.

"Of course I'd like to, but they're playing right now, will they give us their things?" Li Lili said worriedly.

"Leave this to me," Mrs. Chen said confidently. Then she turned to Mr. Chen and Chen Ling and said, "After you finish this round, don't play anymore. It's Ningxue and my turn."

However, after Chen's mother finished speaking, no one replied to her.

Then Chen's mother started speaking again: "Hey, Chen Ling, did you hear me? I'm talking to you. I said, after this round, let Ningxue and I play."

Mrs. Chen was speaking loudly to Chen Ling and Mr. Chen. Just then, Chen Ling turned around and said to his mother, "Okay, I won't play anymore later." However, Mr. Chen didn't respond and continued playing his game intently.

However, Chen's mother was quite satisfied after hearing Chen Ling's words. So she turned to Li Lili and said, "It'll all be up to you now. You must teach me well and help me defeat your father. Let's see if he dares to talk about me like that again." Chen's mother's tone was full of anticipation.

"Don't worry, Mom, I will do my best to help you. I hope you can defeat Dad soon! Go for it!" Li Lili said to encourage Chen's mother from the side.

Then, Chen's mother burst out laughing. At that very moment, Chen's father and Chen Ling's game also ended.

"Mom, here you go." Chen Ling took off his glasses and handed them to his mother.

"Hey, Chen Ling, why did you stop playing? I wanted to play a little longer," Chen's father asked, puzzled.

"Dad, you were so engrossed in your game that you didn't hear what Mom said, did you? She just said she wanted to play games with Ningxue for a while," Chen Ling said casually. Then, he saw his father reluctantly hand the glasses to Li Lili.

"Mom, you're no match for Ningxue." Chen Ling said before the game even started.

"I know, so what? I was just playing around with Xiaoxue, unlike your dad, who doesn't want to play with me," Chen's mother said casually.

At this moment, Mr. Chen suddenly asked in confusion, "Why didn't you play with Xiaoxue when she said she would? Now you're willing? Really."

However, after hearing what Mr. Chen said, Mrs. Chen didn't want to explain anything to him anymore. After all, too much talk leads to mistakes, and she was afraid that if she said too much, she would give herself away. She didn't want to have Zhang until she had mastered the technique.

"Mom saw you guys playing games and wanted to join in too, but Dad, you didn't want to play with her, so she asked me to play with her for a bit," Li Lili quickly explained on behalf of Chen's mother.

After hearing Li Lili's words, Mr. Chen put aside his doubts, and Li Lili and Mrs. Chen started playing games. Meanwhile, Chen Ling sat on the sofa and began contacting a housekeeping company to select a nanny.

“Mom, let’s team up to pass the challenge,” Li Lili said, turning to Chen’s mother. Li Lili meant that if they teamed up, she could openly share her tips with Chen’s mother; if they were opponents, there were many things she couldn’t tell her.

Chen's mother naturally understood what Li Lili meant, so she quickly said, "Okay."

Then, Li Lili and Chen's mother started teaming up to complete the levels. Naturally, Li Lili kept telling Chen's mother where to go and what special moves to use. Chen's mother's skills were still quite poor, but fortunately, Li Lili was patient, explaining things to her again and again. After many repetitions, Chen's mother started to remember some of the instructions. After several games, Chen's mother's skills had improved somewhat, and she herself clearly felt this improvement.

"Xiaoxue, you're really amazing! I feel like my skills have improved a lot after playing these few games with you," Chen's mother whispered in Li Lili's ear.

However, although Mrs. Chen thought it was a very quiet sound, Mr. Chen heard it. Mr. Chen, who was watching them play the game, was itching to play as well. After hearing Mrs. Chen's words, he said, "Since you think your skills have improved, I'll play a couple of rounds with you and see how it goes."

Mr. Chen's voice was so loud that when Mrs. Chen heard it, she was first surprised, and then thought that her voice was probably still a bit loud.

Chapter 366 Hiring a Nanny 3

However, after hearing Mr. Chen's words, Li Lili first observed Mrs. Chen's reaction, feeling that her mother's opinion was more important. At that moment, Mrs. Chen turned to look at Li Lili, then smiled and nodded. Li Lili naturally understood what Mrs. Chen meant.

The game ended quickly, and Li Lili naturally handed the glasses to Mr. Chen. Mr. Chen excitedly took the glasses and then hurriedly went to play the game.

"Didn't you dislike playing games with me? What's wrong today? Why are you so enthusiastic?" Mrs. Chen asked Mr. Chen from the side, her tone slightly sour.

"Didn't you say your technology has improved? I'm here to test if what you're saying is true," Mr. Chen said calmly.

"What progress could I possibly have made? I've just learned some of the rules," Mrs. Chen said with a smile.

"As long as you don't cheat me, I'm still willing to play games with you," Mr. Chen said from the side.

At this moment, Chen Ling said to Li Lili in a low voice, "Let's go back to the room first. I have some things I want to discuss with you."

"Okay." Li Lili nodded in agreement as soon as she saw this.

Then Chen Ling said to his mother, "Dad, Mom, you two can play games here. Ningxue and I are going back to our room first."

"Okay, okay," Mr. and Mrs. Chen said in unison. Then they saw Chen Ling and Li Lili preparing to leave.

As soon as Chen Ling and Li Lili returned to the room, Li Lili asked, "What's wrong, Chen Ling? What happened? Why did you call me back to the room to talk about it?"

"I wanted to talk to you about hiring a housekeeper. I was thinking of doing that, but why are Mom and Dad so opposed to it? I don't quite understand what they mean, you know?" Chen Ling asked Li Lili, puzzled.

“I think I know a little bit about it. My parents are probably getting older and are now a bit afraid of people saying they’re old. Because old people are very afraid of people saying they’re old. You should know that, right?” Li Lili said to Chen Ling.

"I know some of it, but I didn't expect my parents to be thinking about this much now. It seems they're really getting old," Chen Ling said thoughtfully.

“Yes, Mom and Dad are getting older now, and they think about things more, so you should pay more attention to their feelings in the future, and don’t be so rude with your words. Also, I saw Mom working in the kitchen just now, and she probably broke the plate because she was tired,” Li Lili continued.

"I've thought of that. Because Mom has never made any mistakes when cooking, I'm even more determined to find a housekeeper. I can't let Mom do these chores anymore," Chen Ling quickly said.

"Have you found a suitable one yet? It's not easy to find a nanny, you have to find someone with a kind heart," Li Lili said, expressing her concerns.

"Not yet. Do you think this one is suitable? I haven't decided yet." Chen Ling took out his phone and showed it to Li Lili.

"This one looks quite welcoming, why don't we let her come and try it out first?" Li Lili said.

"Then let's take this one. I think it's pretty good too," Chen Ling said quickly.

So, Chen Ling and Li Lili decided to hire this nanny.

At this moment, Li Lili suddenly said to Chen Ling, "But Mom and Dad haven't agreed yet. Auntie is coming over tomorrow. What if Mom and Dad are unhappy?"

"It's alright, you don't need to worry about that. They'll understand our good intentions, don't worry," Chen Ling said to Li Lili.

However, at that moment, Li Lili nodded and said nothing more.

Soon, Chen Ling and Li Lili began preparing for bed.

The next morning, Li Lili got up early to prepare breakfast, worried that if she woke up late, Chen's mother would go and cook again.

Last night, Chen Ling discussed with Li Lili that she shouldn't go to the company today. Instead, she should stay home and wait for the nanny to come over. After that, the nanny would be chased away by Chen's parents.

Just as Li Lili was cooking, Chen's mother came over.

"Xiaoxue, why are you up so early?" Chen's mother said in surprise when she saw Li Lili cooking as soon as she entered the kitchen.

"Oh, Mom, Chen Ling has something to do at the company today and has to go early, so I got up to cook. You can take a break; I'll be done soon," Li Lili quickly explained.

After hearing Li Lili's words, Chen's mother nodded without suspecting anything and went back to her room.

When Mr. Chen saw that Mrs. Chen had returned, he said, "Why are you back? Aren't you going to cook?"

"Yes, Xiaoxue is up and doing it now," Chen's mother said casually.

"Then come with me to exercise," Mr. Chen quickly said.

"No need, I don't want to go." Chen's mother said this with a calm expression.

Seeing Chen's mother's unusual behavior, Mr. Chen stopped going down to exercise and instead chose to stay and talk to her.

"Dad, Mom, Auntie will be coming over at noon. Please have Ningxue wait for her at home and explain the rules to her." Chen Ling said as soon as they sat down at the table.

"Didn't we agree that we didn't need to look for it?" Mrs. Chen asked Chen Ling. At this moment, it was clear that both Mr. and Mrs. Chen were a little angry.

“Mom, I haven’t been feeling well lately, and Chen Ling was worried I wouldn’t be able to take care of you, so he hired a nanny. But it’s actually quite nice; when we’re not home, someone will keep you company. You also need to take good care of yourself, because you’re here to help Chen Ling and me with the baby,” Li Lili began.

"You have a child?" Mr. and Mrs. Chen asked at the same time.

"Not yet, but it's just a matter of time, right?" Li Lili said to Chen's mother and father.

"Alright!" Mrs. Chen said calmly, but after hearing Li Lili's words, she felt a little better.

Then Li Lili smiled at Chen Ling, and then said to Chen's mother, "Mom, you should stay home and take good care of yourself. We'll be together. When I get pregnant, I'll need your help to take care of me."

However, after hearing Li Lili's words, Chen's mother laughed, and it was clear that she was in a much better mood.

Chen Ling finished his meal and left quickly, while Li Lili stayed at home, waiting for her aunt to arrive...

Chapter 1 Becoming One of the Same People

After Li Lili finished cleaning up the dishes, she sat in the living room with Chen's mother and started playing games. Meanwhile, Chen's father had already gone out to exercise. He hadn't gone downstairs that morning because he noticed Chen's mother wasn't in a good mood, but now that she seemed to be doing well and Li Lili was there with her, he went to exercise.

"Ningxue, have I made great progress in my skills?" Chen's mother asked Li Lili.

“Yes, Mom, you’re much better than before. By the way, what did Dad say after you finished playing games with him yesterday?” Li Lili asked.

"Your dad is overjoyed too. He admires me immensely," Mrs. Chen said happily.

Upon hearing what Chen's mother said, Li Lili immediately burst out laughing, thinking that Chen's mother was exaggerating.

Then I heard Chen's mother say, "Oh dear, actually your dad said I've improved too, although not as exaggerated as I just said, but he still affirmed my progress."

"Haha, I know, Mom," Li Lili said with a smile.
