Gu Wancheng specifically explained to the client that he had a procrastination problem and might not be able to finish the manuscript so quickly, but at the latest within four days.

The customer immediately said no problem, as long as the quality was okay, he was willing to wait as long as it took.

Honestly, after seeing that sentence, Gu Wancheng's heart skipped a beat, and she wanted to talk about it for a little longer, but she held back.

Of course, I regretted it afterwards and wanted to slap myself.

Now that she had something to do, Gu Wancheng instantly lost interest in looking at her phone, closed her eyes, and tearfully prepared to go to sleep.

He always felt like he would suddenly get up in the middle of the night and slap himself for taking orders. Why did he have to do that? If he had nothing better to do, he should have exercised.

Frustrated, she gradually fell asleep, not even noticing when Bo Yizhou returned.

The next morning, they found him lying in Bo Yizhou's arms.

I glanced at the time; it was only six o'clock. Time for bed.

He snuggled against him and continued to sleep. Bo Yizhou woke up when he moved, opened his eyes, looked at him for a while, and then closed them again.

When Gu Wancheng woke up at 8:30, Bo Yizhou was no longer in the room.

I closed my eyes, rubbed myself against the blanket, and tried to stay in bed, but my stomach was growling loudly, its presence so strong that it was making me feel irritable.

Gu Wancheng struggled to get out of bed, washed up, and walked out of the room yawning.

Upon encountering the two cubs, Chaochao seemed incredibly excited, Suisui...

Gu Wancheng stared at Suisui's obvious dark circles for a moment in silence. Perhaps it was because he was so fair-skinned that they were so noticeable.

Gu Wancheng glanced at the grinning Chaochao, wondering what the kid had done.

" Suisui, did you not sleep well last night?" Although she was asking Suisui, her eyes were fixed on her own child.

After saying that, Chaochao pinched the hem of her clothes and said shyly, "I was too noisy."

So you knew you were noisy! Gu Wancheng looked at him in shock.

Suisui shook her head. "It's alright, a little."

Upon hearing this, Chaochao felt even more guilty. She had been forgiven and was feeling happy, but now her mood started to sink again.

"It's okay, go take a nap after breakfast. Chaochao won't bother you." Gu Wancheng patted his hair.

Chaochao immediately nodded, "Yes, I won't bother you."

"Okay, thank you, Uncle Gu."

"It's alright, go have breakfast."

Gu Wancheng walked in front, with the two children following behind.

He vaguely heard Chaochao's hushed voice.

" Suisui, why don't you thank me?"

Gu Wancheng:?

What a bizarre thought process! You're the one who kept her up at night, and you say you won't bother her, yet you expect her to thank you.

Perhaps even Suisui was speechless and didn't say anything.

When Chaochao didn't get a reply, she automatically shut her mouth until she finished eating breakfast.

After finishing her meal, Gu Wancheng wasn't too sleepy anymore, so she sat in the courtyard to drink tea and admire the flowers.

Suisui has already gone to her room to catch up on sleep. As for Chaochao, Gu Wancheng took him away, precisely because she was worried that he would disturb Suisui again.

Chaochao sat next to him, arms crossed, looking unhappy, and occasionally letting out a 'humph'.

Gu Wancheng pretended not to hear and occasionally picked up her cup to take a sip of tea.

Then I heard another 'humph', louder than before.

Gu Wancheng glanced at him indifferently, "Are you a pig? All you do is hum."

Chaochao, brandishing her claws, retorted, "No, you're going too far!"

"Oh, how did I go too far?" Gu Wancheng said casually.

Chaochao was furious, practically spitting fire, "You won't let me go back to my room!"

"I don't want you to bother Suisui."

I won't disturb you!

"Oh, I'm worried." Gu Wancheng lowered her eyes, staring at the cub that was about to pounce on her and bite her to death.

"Hmph! Hmph! Hmph!"

"And he even said he wasn't a pig," Gu Wancheng thought.

To keep him from getting bored, Gu Wancheng had someone bring down his homework. Seeing his utterly devastated expression, she smiled and said, "Now you have something to do."

Chaochao opened her mouth, but was immediately interrupted, "If you don't do it, I'll tell your father."

Chaochao shut her mouth, glared at him fiercely, picked up her pen, and opened the math book that made her dizzy just by looking at it.

"Hurry up and do it. If you don't know how, just leave it blank. I'll teach you when you're done."

Gu Wancheng said while drinking her tea.

Upon hearing this, Chaochao moved her notebook aside, saying, "I don't need you to teach me."

"If I don't teach you, who will? Your father or your teacher?" Gu Wancheng flicked his forehead lightly.

Then he glared at her again, and he suspected that the reason Chaochao's eyes were so big was because of this.

" Suisui taught me," Chaochao retorted.

Gu Wancheng raised an eyebrow. So that's how it is. This little brat, she's finally caught him red-handed.

It's a good thing that the child suddenly becomes willing to study, but...

"You can't keep bothering Suisui; if he ignores you later, you'll have nowhere to turn."

" Suisui won't ignore me, I already asked," Chaochao immediately said, then glared at him again.

Gu Wancheng was already immune to it, and said indifferently, "Oh, hurry up and write."

Chaochao frowned, holding her pen and lost in thought.

Gu Wancheng glanced at it but ignored it.

Ding-dong--

Chaochao immediately looked up, and Gu Wancheng said, "This is none of your business, you don't need to look."

Gu Wancheng caught a glimpse of his homework out of the corner of her eye; he had only completed two questions in five minutes.

Chaochao lowered his head; his soul had already left home, leaving only an empty shell sitting there.

I took out my phone and looked at it.

' Bo Yizhou: Are you coming to the company at noon?'

Gu Wancheng had just typed "I'm not going" when Bo Yizhou sent her another message.

' Bo Yizhou: I asked Li Xiao to buy that strawberry cake from that shop; they've also released a new product.'

Gu Wancheng: I've been manipulated.

I stared at the two words he had just typed and fell silent for a moment.

Gu Wancheng: Okay.

Across from him Bo Yizhou watched the words being typed disappear and reappear, and finally saw the single word Bo Yizhou had sent, and smiled.

Hearing his laughter, Li Xiao, standing nearby, stared blankly with dead fish eyes behind his glasses.

What are you laughing at!

Gu Wancheng heard Chaochao's plaintive voice and turned her head to look.

Seeing that he had written two more questions, I met his fiery gaze and immediately calmed down.

"Ahem, stop laughing, hurry up and write, you've only finished four questions in so long."

Chaochao was doing her homework next to him, while he was looking at his phone. Looking at it was one thing, but laughing at it was another; that was definitely wrong. Gu Wancheng deeply reflected on her actions.

After writing another question, Chaochao started to stare blankly again. Gu Wancheng waved her hand in front of his eyes.

Goodness, no reaction. Is it really that hypnotic? He thought it was alright though.

She gently tapped the table, which emitted a dull thud. Chaochao snapped out of her reverie and looked at Gu Wancheng, who was smiling at her.

Chaochao lowered her head and said weakly, "I didn't mean to."

Gu Wancheng took a sip of tea and said, "I know, it must be all the homework's fault. In that case—"

He deliberately drew out his words, looking at Chaochao's increasingly bright eyes, and quietly added, "Then let's conquer it, let's start by writing a hundred questions!"

Upon hearing this, the light in Chaochao's eyes snapped out.
