"Don't believe me! I'm not going on a blind date. You guys go ahead if you want, hmph." Yan Xin refused on the spot. What a terrible idea! She didn't want to go on a blind date.

"What about you, Peach?" Lin Chacha asked.

"I don't want to either. Eldest sister, second sister, please don't worry about my marriage. Let's talk about it in a couple of years." Lin Taozi felt like she was going crazy. Bai Junbai was pressuring her to make a decision, and her two older sisters were arranging blind dates for her. Could she not get married?

The blind date ended in failure, and Lin Xiazhu didn't bring it up again because Yan Xin retorted, "Sure enough, pregnancy makes you stupid for three years, and you keep doing silly things."

Never mind, she's just being nosy. She should stay home and take care of the kids.

Three months passed in the blink of an eye. Lin Xiazhu's twin sons can already crawl, have grown two little front teeth, and can recognize people. However, unlike Mo Xun when he was little, who only wanted Lin Xiazhu to hold him at night, these two little guys seem to know how to be considerate of their mother. They are fine with anyone holding them and love to smile.

Every day, you could hear their giggling and clapping laughter, and whenever this happened, Bai Junbai would squint his eyes thoughtfully.

"Dad... pa..." Xiao Mofan suddenly knew how to say "Dad," which made Bai Ruan extremely happy. Xiao Mohang had learned to say "Mom" first, so it was good that his youngest son could say "Dad" first, which comforted the old father's heart.

"Ma, ma..." That's how Xiao Mohang calls his mother. The little guy also likes to cup his mother's face and drool over her, rubbing and kissing her all the time, but he's not clingy and doesn't mind whoever holds him.

In comparison, the third child, Hei Fan, is more calm and quiet, unlike Mo Hang, who likes to yell and spit on everyone he sees.

He especially likes being held by girls, but he's not as happy when it comes to boys. Although he'll laugh if you tease him, Lin Xiazhu strongly suspects that this child may have inherited Bai Junbai's personality—fickle and rebellious.

Oh dear, this won't do. We need to correct Mo Hang's personality and make sure he plays with his second grandfather less in the future.

When Bai Ru'an learned of her thoughts, he realized she was worrying unnecessarily and was somewhat displeased. How could his son resemble his second uncle? This wasn't how the inheritance of the family name was passed down from generation to generation. It was truly worrying.

At 10 p.m., Bai Ruan went downstairs to pour a glass of milk. Just as she was about to go back upstairs, she saw Bai Junbo coming down with his car keys, looking like he was about to go out.

"You have another appointment, and you're not coming back tonight?" Bai Ru'an asked casually.

"Not going back? The little ones are all asleep?"

"Okay, they're all asleep. I'm going upstairs now." The conversation between the uncle and nephew was quite simple; neither of them were particularly good at expressing themselves.

Bai Ru'an has always been cold-hearted since childhood. Bai Junbo was quite lively when he was young, but he was also arrogant. Now that he is getting older, he is even less talkative. The relationship between the uncle and nephew has never been very close, and it has always been lukewarm.

After going upstairs, Bai Ruan put the milk on the table and said softly, "Xiao Zhu, the milk is here. Remember to drink it."

Lin Xiazhu was looking for pajamas in the closet. Because she had to take care of the child, she could never take a shower and go to bed until after ten o'clock. Although there was a maid to help take care of the child, she preferred to do many things herself. After all, the child was still young, and she would be able to relax a bit after weaning.

"Okay, I'm going to take a shower now."

Seeing her enter the bathroom, Bai Ruan went to the balcony. Watching Bai Junbo drive away, he pondered for a moment, then took out his phone and called Lin Taozi. It rang four or five times before she answered.

"Hey, brother-in-law, what's up so late?" Lin Taozi asked cautiously, and a little guiltyly.

"Peach, where are you now? Have you gone home yet?"

So it was a check-up; it must have been his older sister who sent him.

Lin Taozi thought she had guessed correctly and said with a smile, "I'm at home. Listen, I'm watching TV right now. I'll go to sleep as soon as this episode is over."

My second uncle went out just now. He didn't invite you, did he?

"...Why did you ask me out? Brother-in-law, you're so funny, haha..." Lin Taozi wiped the sweat from her forehead. Bai Junbo hadn't asked her out, but he said he was coming to see her.

Waaah, she's been telling so many lies lately, all about Bai Junbai.

Sometimes she really hated herself for being so weak-willed. She had promised herself that she wouldn't have anything to do with Bai Junbai, but in just three short months, she had been won over by his sweet talk.

It's all Bai Junbai's fault for being too good to her, so good that she couldn't bear to refuse and even became greedy for him.

So a few days ago she accepted his advances, and now they are officially boyfriend and girlfriend, the kind who kiss.

"What are you thinking about? Something on your mind?" Lin Xiazhu came out of the bathroom and saw Bai Ruan sitting there with her brows furrowed in thought.

Bai Ru'an looked up and saw that her hair was wet, with a few beads of sweat running down her back. She immediately got up to get a hairdryer, and when she came back, she said in a low voice, "It's nothing."

After drying Lin Xiazhu's hair, he felt that he could no longer hide the matter. After hesitating for a moment, he said, "Xiaozhu, don't you think that Taozi and Second Uncle seem to have a pretty good relationship?"

Lin Xiazhu: "..." Really? It seems to be much better than before. A few times she even saw Taozi coming in her second uncle's car.

She didn't think of anything else; she just felt that everyone was relatives. Bai Junbo's personality had become more and more introverted and his temperament had become much gentler in recent years. Taozi used to say that Bai Junbo looked down on her, and she had said those things before.

This should be considered a good thing, right?

"An, just say what you want to say. People say pregnancy makes you stupid for three years. I've had three, so I'll be stupid for nine years. Right now, all my thoughts are on my three children. I really don't have the energy to pay attention to anything else." She tapped her head and shook it as she spoke.

"Don't hit me, what if you hurt me?" Bai Ruan grabbed her hand, pulled her into his arms, and whispered, "Xiao Zhu, I always feel that Tao Zi and Second Uncle have an unusual relationship. I saw Tao Zi coming out of his room twice."

"...No way? Second Uncle hates it when people enter his room. Even the servants have to be there to clean. What did Taozi do to get into his room twice?" Lin Xiazhu's heart skipped a beat.

"Did they do something? When did it happen? Why didn't Taozi tell me? Why are you only telling me now?" If they did something, it must have been Bai Junbai who seduced Taozi.

Taozi is so innocent. She has always been timid towards Bai Junbai. Even if he really did something to her, she probably wouldn't dare to say anything and would just keep it to herself. The thought that Taozi might be hurt made Lin Xiazhu so angry that she wanted to punch someone.

"This is outrageous! Bai Junbai dared to lay a hand on Taozi! I... I'll fight him one-on-one and beat him to death!" Lin Xiazhu couldn't sit still any longer and got up to settle scores with him.

"No, Xiaozhu, calm down. Things might not be as we think. I think we should ask them first. If something really happens, it's not too late to calm down even if you're angry." Bai Ruan felt a headache coming on. He had asked Taozi, and Taozi had denied having any connection with his second uncle.

Lin Xiazhu still listened to Bai Ruan's words. She sat down again, pondered for a moment, and then picked up her phone to call Lin Taozi.

On the other side, Lin Taozi had just opened the door for Bai Junbai, and the two hugged and kissed. Before the door could be closed, the phone rang.

"I... I'll go answer this call first," Lin Taozi said, her breath unsteady.

"Never mind that, business is more important." Bai Junbai held her slender waist tightly and refused to let go.
