After lunch, Tuantuan held her round, stuffed little belly as her tiny body curled up on the sofa, her beautiful big eyes half-lidded.
The little baby was getting sleepy~
Lele was not much more energetic beside her. A stomach filled with food needed lots of energy to digest it, making his brain short on oxygen and prone to drowsiness~
Su Chen's phone rang, and the ringtone instantly blew away some of the two little ones' sleepiness.
"Mm, alright. I'll come down to get it in a bit."
He hung up and said to Yan Bingxue beside him, "I'm full. I'll head downstairs to work first."
Yan Bingxue hesitated as if she wanted to say something, but when she thought of what her best friend had said, her pink lips pressed together slightly again.
"Alright." She nodded gently.
The moment Tuantuan heard that Daddy was leaving, all sleepiness vanished. She slid off the sofa at once, ran over, and hugged Su Chen's pant leg.
Lele also snapped awake, his gaze tightly following Su Chen.
He was leaving again? How long would he be gone this time?
Would they see him again?
Lele climbed down from the sofa and stood beside Mommy, twisting his little hands together.
"Daddy, don't go~" Her babyish voice carried a hint of coquettishness. Su Chen looked down and saw that tears could fall from Tuantuan's clear black-and-white eyes at any moment.
His tough guy heart instantly melted. He picked up his daughter and affectionately rubbed his face against her soft little cheek. "Be good, Tuantuan~ Daddy isn't leaving. Daddy is just going to work~"
"But Tuantuan doesn't want to be apart from Daddy~ Tuantuan will go to work with Daddy~" Tuantuan put her clingy little charm on full display, wrapping her arms around Su Chen's neck and refusing to let go.
Su Chen was reluctant to part with his daughter too, but it was his first day at work. He could not exactly bring a child with him, could he?
Yan Bingxue saw his dilemma and walked over to take Tuantuan back. "Tuantuan, your daddy has to work. You can't disturb Daddy. Be good~"
Tuantuan pouted miserably and nodded obediently in Mommy's arms, though her eyes remained fixed on Su Chen without blinking.
"Daddy~ Then come home from work early, okay~"
Su Chen nodded, then forced himself to leave the office quickly.
Ah~ On his first day as a father, he had nearly been unable to withstand that little cutie's spoiled attack!
Yan Bingxue held her daughter, her eyes following Su Chen until his back was completely blocked by the door.
Still wanting more, she turned back, took a deep breath, and led the two little ones back to the sofa.
"Tuantuan, Lele, Mommy wants to ask you something. Do you like Daddy?"
Tuantuan nodded without hesitation and shouted in her sweet little voice, "I do!"
"Tuantuan likes Daddy super, super much~"
"Daddy is so awesome! He beat up the bad uncle. Daddy is the best!"
"Then do you want to live with Daddy?" Yan Bingxue asked, her eyes shining.
Tuantuan nodded rapidly. "Yes, yes, yes! Tuantuan wants to be with Daddy, Mommy, and Brother forever~"
"Tuantuan wants Daddy to live in our home. Tuantuan wants to see Daddy every day~"
Yan Bingxue's eyes brightened even more as she turned to her son. "Lele, what about you? What do you think of Daddy? Do you want to live with Daddy and Mommy?"
Caught off guard by the question, Lele seemed unprepared. His little eyes shifted away, and after a long while, he softly said, "I'll listen to Mommy and Little Sister~"
If her son said that, then he did not object!
It seemed that both her son and daughter liked Su Chen very much~
What a coincidence—she liked him very much too!
So, Yan Bingxue, you had to win this man over!
Su Chen's name had to appear on the household register with you and the babies, as the head of household!

Su Chen made a trip downstairs and got the diamond ring. The moment he opened it and took a look, the dazzling light nearly hurt his eyes.
A diamond ring even bigger than a pigeon egg!
Spending money recklessly really did feel different!
He put the ring box into his pocket, then went upstairs with Human Resources to his workstation.
The moment he sat down, his phone chimed twice. It was concerned greetings from his roommates in the WeChat group.
Chen Zhiqiang: "Brother Su, did your interview at Chaofan Group go smoothly?"
Zhang Yubin: "Brother Su, are you coming back for lunch? None of us have eaten yet. Should we wait for your celebration banquet? Hehe!"
Ge Yu: "Brother Su, if we're not having a celebration banquet, let's go out for dinner and drinks!"
The three of them had lived with Su Chen for three or four years. Their brotherhood was solid, and they knew how to phrase things well.
One asked about the interview, one suggested celebrating, while the other had already smoothed things over in advance. No matter how Su Chen answered, the three of them had his back.
However, Su Chen felt that his answer was definitely something his roommates would never expect!
He himself had not expected everything that had happened today!
Su Chen: "Sorry for making you guys worry. I'm already working at Chaofan Group now."
"And haha, I have children now—two babies from one pregnancy!"
"Dragon-Phoenix twins!"
"They're three years old this year."
"Their mother is none other than Chaofan Group's CEO, Yan Bingxue!"
"When Yan Bingxue saw me, she asked whether I had brought my ID card and household register. She said she wanted to take me to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get our marriage certificate. Damn, it was way too sudden, so I turned her down!"
The WeChat group fell silent for more than half a minute, then messages flooded in like an explosion.
Chen Zhiqiang: "!!!!"
Zhang Yubin: "Shocked! Shocked in all caps!!"
Ge Yu: "Shocked beyond the heavens!!"
Chen Zhiqiang: "Oh my god! My god! Brother Su, you're incredible! Not only did you become an official employee of Chaofan Group, but you were also proposed to by a beautiful CEO worth hundreds of billions!!"
"Oh my god! Chaofan Group is a massive conglomerate with a market value of hundreds of billions!"
"Rumor has it that Yan Bingxue, the head of Chaofan Group, is still unmarried and has an incredibly adorable pair of twins! Her suitors could circle the entire Earth!"
"And now! Now, I'm actually seeing this—Brother Su, you! Not only were you proposed to by Yan Bingxue, but Yan Bingxue's adorable twins are actually your children!!!"
"Oh my god! What's even more explosive is that Brother Su actually rejected Yan Bingxue's proposal!"
"I just want to say that I'm so jealous I've turned purple all over!"
Zhang Yubin: "I'm so jealous I'm about to explode on the spot!"
Ge Yu: "I'm so jealous my teeth have gone sour!!!"
Seeing the shocking messages flooding the chat, Su Chen curled his lips into a smile and typed on his screen: "You three, calm down!"
Zhang Yubin: "Brother Su!!! You're amazing! With so much explosive news, you're still this calm! I'm willing to worship you as a god! Chen Zhiqiang just fell off his stool!"
Ge Yu: "Brother Su, tell me, is your family insanely rich or something? A beautiful CEO worth hundreds of billions gave birth to your children and even proposed to you!"
"You said before that your family was poor. You must have been lying to us, right?"
His roommates continued flooding the chat with shocked messages.
This went on for a full ten minutes before his roommates gradually calmed down.
Chen Zhiqiang: "Brother Su, you rejected Sister-in-law's proposal, so what are you planning to do?"
Su Chen: "As a man, how can I let the mother of my children be the one to bring up marriage?"
"Of course, this man has to propose first, and then get married!"
"She's the woman who gave me twins. I have to give her a grand proposal. Whatever other women have, she should have too!"
"Living off a woman may be nice, but I still prefer eating rice I earned myself, haha."
With the system, he had absolutely no need to live off a woman~~
Zhang Yubin: "Brother Su, mighty and domineering! Brother Su, a real man!"
Ge Yu: "Exactly! As real men, how can we let the woman bring up things like proposals and marriage? Of course we men should take the initiative! Well done, Brother Su!"
