Contemporary college student Ye Zhao stayed up all night working on a thesis and died of exhaustion, transmigrating into the CEO's fiancée and becoming a calculating supporting role.
Well...
Ye Zhao underestimated Yuanbao's energy. He thought Yuanbao would be sleepy after eating, but he seemed even more excited after eating, chattering and begging Chen Du to take him to play the games he hadn't played in the morning.
Ye Zhao followed the two of them listlessly, wanting to go back and rest first, but she was afraid of spoiling the children's fun.
Chen Du led the child ahead, and when he turned around, he saw the fatigue on Ye Zhao's face. He paused, then picked up Yuanbao in front of him and said gently, "Yuanbao, how about Daddy plays with you this afternoon? Mommy is tired, let her go back and rest first."
Upon hearing this, Yuanbao turned to look for Ye Zhao. Ye Zhao was not far behind the two of them. When she met his gaze, the tired look on her face quickly disappeared, and she smiled and waved to Yuanbao.
Seeing this, Yuanbao obediently nodded: "Okay."
As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Zhao approached.
Chen Du turned to look at her and said gently, "If you're tired, go back and rest. I'll take care of the child and bring him back tonight."
Yuanbao hugged Chen Du's neck and obediently said after he finished speaking, "Mom, go back and rest. I'll play with Dad."
Ye Zhao had been itching to run away, and upon hearing this, a smile appeared on her face: "Alright, I'm really too lazy to walk."
After saying that, she touched Yuanbao's face and said to Chen Du, "If he gets hot later, you can take off his coat, but remember to put it back on when it gets cooler. When it's hot, remember to give him more water and buy him fewer snacks, or he'll get an upset stomach."
Ye Zhao kept giving instructions, completely unaware of the gaze that Chen Du was giving her.
Shen Du's gaze unconsciously fell on Ye Zhao's face. She looked somewhat tired, and some strands of her hair were blown by the wind and landed on her face, making her look itchy. Shen Du suddenly had an urge to brush the strands of hair away from her face. When he realized this thought, he turned his head away and didn't dare to look at Ye Zhao again.
After saying those words, Ye Zhao left. Shen Du watched her go, then made a call to the driver before taking Yuan Bao to other projects.
Chen Du had never taken care of Yuanbao alone before, and he was actually a little tired after a morning, but seeing the joy and anticipation in Yuanbao's eyes, he couldn't bear to say anything that would spoil the mood.
Yuanbao pulled Chen Du along ahead, chattering away. A person walked by and casually tossed a piece of paper on the ground. Yuanbao saw this and suddenly shouted at the person, "Auntie, why are you littering?"
He was afraid the woman wouldn't hear him, so he spoke very loudly. Instantly, everyone around turned to look at the two of them. The woman looked a little embarrassed and mumbled, "Auntie didn't litter. It fell by accident."
Little Yuanbao looked up at her and continued loudly, "I saw that you threw it. Auntie, you can't litter."
The woman mumbled "I know, I know," and hurriedly tried to run away. Xiao Yuanbao was about to chase after her when Chen Du quickly stepped forward and grabbed him.
Yuanbao turned to look at him, pouting, and said, "That auntie litters."
With a smile in his eyes, Shen Du said gently, "Yes, she knows she was wrong, we don't need to chase after her."
He already knew that Yuanbao was a bit of a troublemaker in the morning, but he didn't expect him to be a little inspector. He would stop others from behaving badly in public places in time. He is a very brave child and always brings unexpected surprises to Chen Du.
As soon as Ye Zhao got into the car, she sent a message to Jiang Che.
"We're going back now. Chen Du is taking Yuanbao to play."
She is actually a rather sensitive person. Although Jiang Che has never said it, she can vaguely sense his emotions. So today, she shared everything she could with him to avoid Jiang Che overthinking.
When Jiang Che saw this message, the corners of his lips couldn't help but turn up.
It wasn't because he was happy that she wasn't with Shen Du anymore, but because Ye Zhao would take the initiative to share these things with him, and the act of sharing itself was what made him happier.
"Okay, you must be tired after shopping all morning. Go back and get some rest. I'll call you later."
Ye Zhao couldn't help but smile: "Okay, you go ahead and get busy."
Jiang Che has been very busy these past two days, with all sorts of things piling up, keeping him extremely busy and unable to spare a moment for anything else.
Jiang Kai also wanted to give him some experience, so he had completely handed over the company's affairs to Jiang Che during this period and was enjoying a retirement life at home.
The couple were pruning flowers at home that day. As they were pruning, Tan Yuqiu suddenly sighed. Jiang Kai couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong? If you're tired, go back and rest. I'll do it."
Tan Yuqiu shook her head and said, "What's so tiring about pruning a flower branch? I just find it too peaceful."
Jiang Kai said dismissively, "What's wrong with a little peace and quiet? It's rare that Aze isn't home today."
Tan Yuqiu sighed again and said slowly, "That child from the Lu family is so cute. I wonder when I'll be able to hold my grandson..."
Jiang Kai smiled upon hearing this and teased, "Why don't you go and urge A-Che? After all, he already has a girlfriend, so marriage should be just around the corner."
Tan Yuqiu glanced at him and said, "Is that something I can control? You know A-Che's personality; who among us can make decisions for him?"
As Jiang Kai trimmed the flower branches, he replied, "Don't worry, we'll get a hug eventually."
Tan Yuqiu shook her head and didn't say anything. Just then, Jiang Ze returned from outside in a nonchalant manner. Seeing the two of them, he smiled and said, "Hey! You two landscape masters, busy at work?"
The two were engrossed in pruning the flower branches, ignoring him. Jiang Ze was already used to it, so he walked over with a smile, sat down, and said to himself, "My brother is in love."
He finished speaking and waited for their reaction, but they still didn't look up. Jiang Ze paused for two seconds, then looked at them in surprise: "You know? Why aren't you surprised?"
The two remained silent. Jiang Ze paused for a second or two, then asked again, "Aren't you curious about who that girl is?"
Tan Yuqiu then looked up at him and asked, "Do you know him?"
Jiang Ze leaned back in his chair and said with a smile, "Of course I know him!"
The couple exchanged a glance. Tan Yuqiu moved a chair closer to Jiang Ze and asked with a curious look, "What's your brother's girlfriend like? Is she pretty?"
Jiang Ze raised an eyebrow: "Is that all you're curious about?"
Tan Yuqiu frowned and retorted, "Otherwise what?"
Jiang Ze smiled and answered honestly, "Of course she's beautiful. I like this sister-in-law very much. She has a great personality and character. It's a blessing for our Jiang family to marry her."
The couple exchanged a silent glance, and Tan Yuqiu asked hesitantly, "Such a high evaluation?"
Jiang Ze then said, catching his breath, "Of course, there's still one more major problem..."
