"Hmm~"

The glaring sunlight streamed into the room through the open curtains. Lu Keran frowned and pulled the blanket over her head.

Then footsteps were heard nearby, and after a while, the curtains were drawn.

Lu Keran eyes closed, "Aren't you going to the company today?"

"No, I'll stay with you today," Lu Xuanran replied without looking at anything else, holding a document in his hand.

"Who wants you to keep me company? You're so annoying, ugh~." Lu Keran twitched on the bed, accidentally aggravating her sore back.

Lu Xuanran put down the documents, came over, and gently rubbed his waist through the blanket. "I was wrong. I won't tease you like that next time."

"Shut up, I'm hungry," Lu Keran said.

"I'll go get a bowl of porridge." Lu Xuanran patted his bottom.

Lu Keran: "..." So annoying.

I lingered in bed for a while longer before getting up to go to the bathroom to wash up.

Seeing the dense red spots all over my body in the mirror while brushing my teeth made me even angrier.

Is he crazy? Is he some kind of cupping addict?

"The porridge is on the table; it's vegetable and lean meat porridge." Lu Xuanran leaned against the door frame, watching him brush his teeth.

"Um."

Lu Keran gave him a look, hoping he would be sensible and get out of the way.

However, Lu Xuanran didn't want to be sensible and continued to lean against the door frame, watching him.

Lu Keran her eyes, deciding to pretend she didn't exist.

After quickly finishing washing up, I nudged someone who was in my way.

"Don't block my way."

Lu Xuanran turned to the side, while Lu Keran looked at the gap that was just big enough for her to pass through and felt speechless.

I walked over and sat down on the sofa; thankfully, it was soft enough.

The porridge on the table was steaming hot, and the aroma of rice wafted into my nose, making my stomach rumble with longing.

"Be careful, it's hot."

Am I a three-year-old?

You are not.

"I don't want to see you, how am I supposed to go out today?" Just seeing him reminded her of the dense red spots on her body, and her mood instantly soured.

"Don't go out. Isn't it better to stay at home?" Lu Xuanran a low voice.

Lu Keran said while drinking her porridge, "I'm bored, you know that, I can't stand sitting still."

Lu Xuanran lowered his head, feigning disappointment, "Can't I even stay home with you?"

"Alright, I'm kind-hearted, I'll keep you company."

Lu Xuanran lowered his head and a smile played on his lips.

"Take two kinds of vegetables."

Jiang Yu was about to laugh when she heard this, but the next second...

"Let's take cabbage and water spinach."

Gu Wancheng obediently did as she was told. Jiang Yu was stunned and looked at Chu Yi'an in surprise, realizing that he had just been deluding himself.

Jiang Yu was furious and secretly glared at Chu Yi'an from where the camera couldn't see her.

As it turned out, Jian Yue saw it all. He frowned slightly and subtly positioned himself between Jiang Yu and Chu Yi'an.

[What does Chu Yi'an mean by this? Xiao Yu said she wanted a vegetable salad, why did he choose these two?]

[I think he did it on purpose. Why should he ask but not give Xiao Yu what she wants to eat?]

[If it were me, I would have taken it directly. Everyone gets a share anyway, why should I listen to just one person?]

[So that's why it suddenly stopped raining; it turns out you guys are the ones who left me speechless.]

[What do you mean everyone gets a share? This was awarded to the children. Are you blind?]

[Why are you having a vegetable salad? Look at how many of you there are. You don't have to do any work.]

[Don't say that. They don't do any work anyway. What's wrong with wanting to eat some vegetable salad? (smiling emoji)]

Gu Wancheng breathed a sigh of relief; thankfully, she almost ended up eating grass.

He then picked up the two cards and said, "Anything else?"

"Beef and potatoes, please."

"Okay, that's fine."

Chen Liqing appeared, holding a megaphone, "Well, have you made your choice?"

Gu Wancheng handed him the card. "Alright, and your comment is the most redundant. Didn't you watch it from beginning to end?"

Jian Yue stepped forward and patted Chen Liqing on the shoulder, saying kindly, "Don't skimp on the weight!"

"Don't worry, it definitely won't happen," Chen Liqing said.

Jian Yue nodded, somewhat skeptical.

"Dad, when can we eat cola chicken wings?" Chaochao asked expectantly.

Gu Wancheng didn't know either, so she said to him, "Go ask Brother Chu."

" Brother Chu, when are we going to eat cola chicken wings?" Chaochao immediately ran to ask Chu Yi'an.

The little ones looked up at him with longing, and no one could resist.

Chu Yi'an was the same; he had originally planned to make it in the evening, but since they wanted to eat it so much, he decided to make it at noon.

"It'll be ready for lunch, just wait a little longer."

"Yay! We get cola chicken wings!"

" Director Chen, what activities are we going to do later?" Xu Xiashi asked.

Chen Liqing shook his head, "You are free to do as you please."

Upon hearing Gu Wancheng immediately took his phone back and, not wanting to work, chose to go back to bed.

As a result, I had only been lying in bed for a short while when Chaochao annoyed me to no end.

Aren't you going to play with your friends?

"No, I want to go with you."

Why are you following me?

"Snort."

"?"

"Do you like another child?" Chaochao stood by the bed, hands on her hips.

[Oh my god, Chaochao finally knows how to talk! Shocking jpg]

[ Chaochao finally realized he has a mouth! Relieved. jpg]

[Someone, type "tears in my eyes" in the chat!]

[Tears welling up.]

Gu Wancheng finally realized that Chaochao had been inexplicably angry before, and she didn't understand why he had this thought.

Gu Wancheng got out of bed and carried Chaochao to sit on the edge of the bed.

Why would you think that?

"Hmph, you always touch other kids."

That's it?

Gu Wancheng was speechless for a moment; it was a little hard to understand why a child would be so jealous.

For a moment, I didn't know what to say. I could tell him I didn't like it, but I was also afraid that Chaochao would complain about it later.

He said he wouldn't touch them anymore, but he was afraid his hands would itch to do so later.

Seeing that he didn't say anything, Chaochao got so angry that her eyes started to turn red, and she looked so pitiful.

Gu Wancheng quickly said, "Daddy won't touch their heads next time, he'll only touch Chaochao's."

After thinking about it, I realized that my own baby is still the most important.

"Snort."

Chaochao snorted loudly and turned his head away. Don't think he didn't know his stinky dad was hesitating.

"Dad really won't touch it anymore, I swear." Gu Wancheng solemnly swore, raising three fingers.

[ Chengcheng, why don't you raise another finger?]

[ Chengcheng, that's called thinking long-term.]

Chaochao was unaware of Gu Wancheng's ulterior motives; he only knew that his father had made a vow to him, and that vows made on TV were meant to be kept.

So Chaochao turned her head back.

He stretched out his chubby little hand to Gu Wancheng and said, "Let's pinky swear."

A sudden wave of guilt washed over Gu Wancheng. Chaochao was so innocent and naive, and he was still like that.

If he had to do it again, he... would do it again.

Their voices overlapped, "Pinky promise, a hundred years from now, whoever goes back on their word first is a dog!"

"Are you happy now?"

"Uh-huh."
