My buildings have attributes

"Never mind, never mind, I won't say anymore," Chen Xiaoqi said helplessly. She still couldn't believe that Chen Ling had become like this without any warning, so she decided to find some time to ask Chen Ling what exactly happened.

"Oh, you shouldn't think like that," Chen's mother said, looking at Chen Xiaoqi.

Chapter 387 The Budding of Fatherly Love

After hearing what his mother said, Chen Xiaoqi stopped talking.

Just then, Chen Ling came out carrying Qingqing. Qingqing had stopped crying and was now happily smiling in Chen Ling's arms.

"Brother, when did you become so fond of children?" Chen Xiaoqi asked immediately as soon as she saw Chen Ling come out.

"I don't know either, I just started it because I like it," Chen Ling said casually.

“Oh dear, Xiaoqi, this is the beginning of fatherly love,” Mrs. Chen said again.

Chen's mother was speechless at Chen Xiaoqi's question. She wondered why Chen Xiaoqi kept asking so many questions, even though she had explained it to her so many times.

“Yes, just like Mom said, it’s probably the beginning of fatherly love,” Chen Ling added.

"Alright then," Chen Xiaoqi said calmly after hearing this.

"Alright, alright, let's not talk about this anymore. What are we having for dinner? Are we cooking at home or eating out?" Mrs. Chen continued.

"Mom, let's cook at home. The air quality outside isn't good, so let's not go out," Chen Xiaoqi said.

"Okay, then I'll go over and cook something," Mrs. Chen said quickly.

Upon hearing what Chen's mother said, Li Lili immediately replied, "Mom, I'll come over and help you."

"No need, no need. It's just a meal. I can handle it myself. You all sit here and chat. No need for help," Mrs. Chen said firmly.

"I can help you, even just washing and chopping vegetables," Li Lili continued.

As Li Lili said this, she continued to follow Chen's mother into the kitchen.

"Alright then, you can just help me wash and chop the vegetables," Chen's mother said to Li Lili.

"Okay, Mom," Li Lili said with a smile.

"Oh, right, Mom, Aunt Yang didn't come over!" Li Lili noticed something was missing as soon as she got back, and only when she got to the kitchen did she realize that Aunt Yang hadn't come over.

"It's Sunday today, and she had something to do at home, so she couldn't come," Chen's mother explained after hearing this.

"I guess so. I was just wondering what was wrong with me when you said you were going to cook, and I hadn't even realized it yet," Li Lili continued.

"Haha." Chen's mother laughed when she heard this.

"Oh, Aunt Yang is such a pitiful person," Li Lili said, thinking of Aunt Yang's appearance.

"Don't worry, things will get better. I think her daughter-in-law will realize her mistake one day," Chen's mother said after hearing this.

"I wish we could help her," Li Lili said with a smile.

"This is their family matter, how can we help?" Mrs. Chen said helplessly.

"Sigh." Li Lili sighed deeply.

"Alright, alright, you can't let your mood get down right now that you're trying to conceive," Chen's mother said immediately when she heard Li Lili sigh.

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

Then Li Lili took out the washed vegetables and started chopping them.

"Go outside and rest after you've finished chopping the vegetables," Chen's mother said to Li Lili.

"Mom, I'm not pregnant yet, you don't need to be so delicate," Li Lili said to Chen's mother.

“Sigh, you’re still a child, you don’t understand. Besides, there’s nothing for you to do, so listen to me, you can go now,” Mrs. Chen said again.

Li Lili couldn't help but laugh when she saw Chen's mother's expression, and then said, "Mom, you're so good to me."

"Silly child," Chen's mother said affectionately.

Li Lili quickly finished chopping the vegetables, then put down the knife and found a bowl to hold them.

Then Li Lili said to Chen's mother, "Mom, I'll go out now."

"Alright, alright, you can go now." After hearing Li Lili's words, Chen's mother quickly said.

As soon as Li Lili walked into the living room, she began to say, "Mom is really something, now she's starting to stop me from doing any work."

“Sister-in-law, that’s just how Mom is. You can tell from me that she won’t let me do any work, so I just decided not to go over there at all, to avoid having to go back and forth with her making excuses,” Chen Xiaoqi quickly said.

"Xiaoqi, isn't it inappropriate to use the word 'making excuses' here?" Chen's father asked Chen Xiaoqi.

Then we heard everyone laughing.

"Dad," Chen Xiaoqi called out in a slightly coquettish tone.

"Haha." Seeing this, everyone burst into laughter.

"Okay, stop laughing, stop laughing," Chen Ling said quickly, seeing Chen Xiaoqi's frustrated face.

Then Chen Xiaoqi said again, "Are you tired of carrying me? Do you want me to carry you for a while?"

"I am a little tired, but it's nothing serious," Chen Ling said after hearing Chen Xiaoqi's words.

At this moment, Li Ran smiled and said, "I love it so much I can't put it down."

"Haha, isn't that good? Let Chen Ling hold her a little longer and gain some experience," Chen's father said with a laugh.

“Dad, you’re so smart. Let my brother hold him then.” Chen Xiaoqi glanced at Chen Ling, then continued.

"What's so smart about this?" Mr. Chen said casually.

"Sigh, I feel like the atmosphere is a bit off today. The way you're talking, it feels like you're targeting me," Chen Xiaoqi said, looking at them.

“No, you’re overthinking it,” Mr. Chen said first after hearing this.

At this moment, Chen Ling also said sarcastically, "You're a mother now, so don't put on such a show."

"Tch." Chen Xiaoqi rolled her eyes.

"Xiaoqi, I suddenly remembered something. Qingqing has started drinking formula now, so she basically doesn't need you to take care of her anymore. What are your plans for the future?" Chen Ling suddenly asked Chen Xiaoqi very seriously.

"What do you mean? What are your plans?" Chen Xiaoqi asked, puzzled.

After hearing this, Chen Ling continued, "What else could it be? It's about your job. What do you want? To stay home and take care of the kids, be a housewife, or to go back to work and start your own business?"

"I haven't thought about it yet," Chen Xiaoqi said after hearing this.

"Why haven't you decided yet? Haven't you even started thinking about it?" Chen Ling continued to ask Chen Xiaoqi.

"Yes, I haven't decided yet. Right now, Qingqing needs me to be with her. If I go out to work, I won't be able to be with her," Chen Xiaoqi said, looking at Qingqing.

Chapter 388 Housewife? Impossible!

After Chen Xiaoqi finished speaking, she continued to look at Qingqing.

However, Chen Ling, standing to the side, felt very sorry for Chen Xiaoqi. He also liked Qingqing, but he didn't want Qingqing to ruin Chen Xiaoqi's life.

Then Chen Ling said again, "You should think it over carefully. Take advantage of the fact that you haven't been gone for too long. If you want to come back later, it might be really difficult."

“Yes, I know everything you’re saying, how could I not know? But I’m not willing to let Qingqing suffer because of my work,” Chen Xiaoqi continued.

“Xiaoqi, are you overthinking this? Think about it, what kind of grievances could Qingqing suffer at home? Besides, you are in charge of your work and you can decide your workload! You don’t need to take on so many activities.” Chen Ling began to say.

At this moment, Li Ran chimed in, "I'll support whatever you want to do. If you want to go back to work, don't worry. My parents are home and can help take care of the kids, or we can hire a professional. It's not a problem."

"I'm somewhat tempted," Chen Xiaoqi said, looking at Li Ran.

“If you’re interested, then go out and work. You like how confident and radiant you are on screen,” Li Ran said with a smile.

However, after hearing Li Ran's words, Chen Xiaoqi said loudly, "So you don't like it when I'm not working?"

"No, no, you're overthinking it. I love you no matter what," Li Ran quickly explained.

"That's more like it," Chen Xiaoqi said, looking at Li Ran.

"Oh, stop showing off. Show off when you get home," Chen Ling said helplessly to Chen Xiaoqi and Li Ran.

"By the way, brother, it's not like I can just say I want to go back and expect to. We're making it sound so easy here, but we don't even know when we can go back yet," Chen Xiaoqi said.

"Don't worry, as long as you want to go back, there will definitely be a way," Chen Ling continued.

“Yes, you don’t need to worry about Xiaoqi. She can be my brand ambassador.” Li Ran said with a smile.

"No, if I want to make a comeback, I still need to talk to Awei about this first. Let's see what he says," Chen Xiaoqi said thoughtfully.

"Okay, as long as you keep this in mind and keep it in mind, that's fine. I'm just worried you'll waste your time at home," Chen Ling said reassuredly.

"Dad, why haven't you said anything?" Chen Xiaoqi laughed after hearing Chen Ling's words, and then said to her father. Chen Xiaoqi wondered why her father hadn't said a word after they had chatted back and forth for so long.

“This is a matter for you young people, I won’t get involved,” Mr. Chen said immediately after hearing this.

"Oh, okay," Chen Xiaoqi said casually.

"Hey, sister-in-law, why aren't you saying anything?" Chen Xiaoqi turned to Li Lili and asked.

"I don't know what to say. I feel like I'll encounter the same problems you're talking about, so I was thinking about what I would do if it were me," Li Lili said calmly.

Upon hearing this, Chen Xiaoqi immediately asked, "Huh? Have you figured out the outcome yet?"

"Ah, I think if you can't experience it firsthand, you really wouldn't know how to choose," Li Lili said seriously.

After hearing Li Lili's words, Chen Xiaoqi nodded, indicating that she agreed with Li Lili's point of view.

"Let me tell you, this is indeed a headache, but it's not too bad. Just weigh the standards for both." Chen Xiaoqi shared her experience with Li Lili like someone who had been through it all.

Chen Ling, who was standing to the side, couldn't stand it anymore and said, "Take a break. I don't see any experience in you. Isn't this something you just thought of? You hadn't even thought about it before, and now you're lecturing others."

"Brother, I really dislike you. You're so annoying right now," Chen Xiaoqi said to Chen Ling.

"That's really unfair! What did I do?" Chen Ling said with a smile.

"Who wronged you? It's true, look how irritating you are with your words now," Chen Xiaoqi said helplessly.

Chen Ling then smiled and said, "Alright, alright, I won't expose you anymore. I'll turn a blind eye, okay?"

"That's more like it," Chen Xiaoqi said, looking at Chen Ling.

"Look at your temper! You've really been spoiled rotten. I never knew you had this temper before; it's only grown this way in the last year," Chen Ling said seriously.

"I don't know either. If you say you spoiled him, then you spoiled him. Anyway, that's how his temper is now. If you say you spoiled him, then that's even better," Chen Xiaoqi said calmly.
