Xu Mengyao smiled.

Lin Chen scratched Lin Xiaoqian's nose and said, "So our Qian Qian likes flowers too. Daddy forgot this time, but I'll definitely remember next time."

"Hehe!"

"Daddy, then let's pinky promise."

Lin Xiaoqian held out her little finger and hooked it with Lin Chen's.

"Huh, what's this?"

Shen Qing spotted a card hidden among the flowers.

She reached out and took it.

"Wife, I love you."

"Mengyao, I feel a little redundant here."

Shen Qing read aloud from the Heart-Shaped Card.

Xu Mengyao reached over and snatched the Heart-Shaped Card back. She saw the words on it, along with the three little figures drawn there.

"Lin Chen, did you draw that?"

"Your Painting Skill is actually this good? It looks so lifelike."

Shen Qing exclaimed in amazement.

Xu Mengyao glanced at Lin Chen.

The three little figures on the card really were beautifully drawn. Lin Chen's foundation in drawing was anything but ordinary.

"Mommy, I want to see."

Lin Xiaoqian held out her Little Hands.

Xu Mengyao handed the card to Lin Xiaoqian.

Lin Xiaoqian's eyes lit up. "Daddy, it's so pretty! Is this me? And is this Mommy?"

Lin Chen smiled. "That's right."

"If you like it, Daddy will draw another one for you later. Give this one to Mommy—it's for Mommy."

Lin Xiaoqian nodded.

"Mommy, here."

"Mommy, are you happy today? Whenever Qian Qian goes out with Daddy, I'm always super, super happy."

Lin Xiaoqian asked in her sweet childish voice.

"Mhm, I'm happy."

"Qian Qian, Mommy just came back from abroad, and there are still lots of things to handle at the company here. Mommy has to go now. I'll come see Qian Qian again next week, okay?"

Xu Mengyao kissed Lin Xiaoqian.

"Mhm."

"Mommy, I'll be good."

"I don't even pick at my food anymore."

Lin Xiaoqian was a little reluctant, but she still nodded.

Shen Qing said with a laugh, "Qian Qian, it's because your daddy's cooking is delicious that you don't pick at your food anymore, right?"

"Hehe!"

"I have a good daddy."

Lin Xiaoqian smiled sweetly.

Lin Chen said, "Xiaoqian, Mommy's car is parked outside. Let's see Mommy and Auntie Qingqing out."

"Mhm."

The four of them went downstairs.

Xu Mengyao held a huge bouquet of roses in her arms. Everyone they passed in the residential complex looked their way.

Xu Mengyao felt rather uncomfortable.

But Lin Xiaoqian was very happy.

"Mengyao, drive safely."

Holding Lin Xiaoqian in his arms, Lin Chen walked Xu Mengyao and Shen Qing to the car.

Xu Mengyao had driven over in her own Sports Car.

It was a red Porsche 911. Given Xu Mengyao's wealth, driving this car was already extremely low-key.

"Mhm."

"Qian Qian, you have to listen to Daddy, okay?"

Xu Mengyao reminded her.

Lin Xiaoqian nodded her Little Head. "Mommy, I will. Mommy, come see Qian Qian soon, okay?"

"Qian Qian will miss you a lot."

Xu Mengyao nodded.

She was extremely reluctant to leave.

But she was now the president of a conglomerate with total assets of sixty billion. Many matters required her decisions.

Some business dealings also required her personal attention.

Now that the group had grown to this scale, was she supposed to neglect the entire group just to raise her daughter?

If it were only a six-million company, perhaps she could simply give it up. But a sixty-billion company was not something she could abandon just because she said so.

Sell her shares and take twenty or thirty billion in cash?

Without the group and without those connections, carrying around twenty or thirty billion in cash might get her killed very quickly.

All kinds of Demons and Monsters might come knocking.

Vroom!

Xu Mengyao drove away.

Not far behind, another car followed.

That car carried the bodyguards Xu Mengyao had hired.

"Mengyao, how did Uncle Xu investigate back then? Or was he deceived, and the people he hired never investigated properly?"

"Lin Chen's Cooking Skill is so good, yet they didn't even find that out."

Shen Qing said from the Passenger Seat of the Sports Car.

"I don't know."

Xu Mengyao shook her head.

What puzzled her even more was that it wasn't just his cooking they had failed to uncover. Lin Chen was also proficient in Four Foreign Languages. Was that something an ordinary person could do?

"Mengyao, how did the date feel?"

Shen Qing asked with a smile.

She did not know that Lin Chen and Xu Mengyao had gotten married.

Xu Mengyao had told her that she and Lin Chen were fake dating today so Lin Xiaoqian would know that her parents loved each other.

Xu Mengyao said, "It was a fake date. If you want to know what a real date feels like, get yourself a boyfriend."

Shen Qing laughed charmingly. "Mengyao, I think it wouldn't be bad if you and Lin Chen really developed things further."

"Leaving everything else aside, just Lin Chen's cooking alone—if you really married him, eating every day would be amazing."

Xu Mengyao remained silent.

Shen Qing said, "Uncle Xu's investigation said he was very ordinary, yet it turns out he cooks well, writes well, and is pretty good at drawing too. That's already incredibly outstanding."

"He also has one huge advantage."

Xu Mengyao said blandly, "What advantage?"

Shen Qing said, "He's Qian Qian's dad. Look how close they are. I've spent more time taking care of Qian Qian than he has, but Qian Qian is much closer to Lin Chen than she is to me."

"Bloodlines really are amazing."

Xu Mengyao teased, "Now I know what it means to go soft after eating someone's food. You've had two meals from Lin Chen, and now you're trying every possible way to speak well of him."

"What, do you want to mooch more meals from him later?"

Shen Qing nodded repeatedly. "Of course I do. With his Cooking Skill, even the Head Chef of a Five-Star Hotel can't compare."

"His Cooking Skill really is impressive."

Xu Mengyao said, "But don't sell me out for a few meals."

"Daddy, I'm so happy."

When Lin Chen and Lin Xiaoqian returned home, Lin Xiaoqian said happily.

"What are you happy about?"

Lin Chen asked.

Lin Xiaoqian giggled. "Daddy loves Mommy, and Mommy loves Daddy, so Daddy and Mommy won't get divorced."

"Then I can always be with Daddy and Mommy."

Lin Chen kissed Lin Xiaoqian. "Don't worry. Our family will definitely always be together."

Beep beep!

Lin Chen's phone rang.

He took it out and saw that Chen Wenhan was calling.

"Editor-in-Chief Chen, what is it?"

Lin Chen asked.

On the other end of the line, Chen Wenhan said, "Lin Chen, your book has already begun printing. Send a message to your readers, and the website will have a purchase link when the time comes."

"Also, since you don't want to hold a Book Signing, could you prepare a batch of Signed Books?"

"People who buy the book can randomly receive one of your Signed Books."

Lin Chen thought for a moment. "Editor-in-Chief Chen, have someone send over a thousand books when the time comes. I'll sign a thousand copies. Things are precious when they're scarce—too many wouldn't be good."

"Alright."

Chen Wenhan said happily.

"Qian Qian, go play on the balcony for a bit. Daddy has something to do. Once I'm done, I'll come keep you company soon." Lin Chen said with a smile. (P.S.: Why do so many people think it's dangerous? It's not dangerous, okay? Just use my home as a reference... Please ignore the mess.)

"Mhm."

Lin Chen went into the study and turned on his computer.

I should upload some more.

Lin Chen muttered to himself.

He had only uploaded thirty fairy tales to Childlike Heart Network, and he still had twenty unpublished stories saved on his computer.

Before long, Lin Chen uploaded ten of them.

"Paper Book, Lin Yu's Story Collection, now printing. Please stay tuned."

After uploading the ten stories, Lin Chen posted an announcement.
