Chapter 351

"It's all yours. I'm completely yours." Leng Zexi gazed affectionately at his little wife with skin as white as snow and rosy as a rosy complexion, his eyes full of pampering and satisfaction.

This is the person he takes care of with all his heart.

However, facing Leng Zexi's fiery gaze, Xia Ruo'an shyly pulled his hand away and gently scolded him, "Stop it! You have been busy all this time and haven't had a good rest. You should take a break."

Hearing this, Leng Zexi smiled slightly, rubbed his forehead with his hand, and responded with a bit of helplessness: "I'm actually fine. I just had a nap on the plane. Now I'm energetic and don't feel sleepy at all."

"But you, seem a little tired, are you sleepy?" As he said this, his eyes fell on Xia Ruoan's slightly tired face with concern.

Hearing this, Xia Ruo'an nodded and replied softly: "Yeah, I am indeed a little sleepy. How about this, you go over and put the money away for Ningning first."

As he spoke, he handed the money in his hand to Leng Zexi.

After taking the money, Leng Zexi frowned slightly and said, "I'll give it to him later. There's no need to take money from you."

Seeing Leng Zexi say this, Xia Ruo'an also laughed helplessly: "What a person you are! Didn't you always say that everything you have is mine? If that's the case, then what's the difference between your money and my money?"

"Besides, you always rely on Ningning's trust in you to 'cheat' a little money from him from time to time. Don't you feel embarrassed?"

After saying that, she didn't know what to say.

"I did this to make him realize clearly what consequences he will face in the future if he doesn't study hard."

"I didn't mean to deceive Ningning. I couldn't deceive those two guys, Suisui and Niannian. They even looked down on my behavior!" Leng Zexi looked at her innocently and hurriedly explained.

Recalling the scene at that time, Leng Zexi couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Originally, I didn't have any hope of being able to successfully deceive Ning Ning."

"But who knew this little guy was so naive and was easily fooled."

"What's even more interesting is that later, when I felt too embarrassed to continue deceiving him, he actually took the initiative to come to me with banknotes to exchange for coins. Looking back now, it's really ridiculous."

As he said this, Leng Zexi couldn't help but laugh out loud.

However, Xia Ruo'an on the side frowned and said with a hint of blame: "You, not only did you not correct the mistake in time, but you let him keep making the mistake."

"What if Ningning no longer trusts you as his biological father? Even though you are the person closest to him, you can lie to him. Do you think he will dare to trust others easily in the future?"

Hearing his wife's words, Leng Zexi immediately put away his smile and sincerely admitted his mistake: "Okay, okay, my dear wife, it's all my fault. I promise that I will never lie to him again and will reflect deeply on my behavior."

Seeing that he truly realized his mistake, Xia Ruoan's expression eased a little.

At this time, Leng Zexi comforted his wife again: "Don't worry too much, our Ningning has an open-minded personality. I think this matter will be forgotten in a few days. She will definitely not take it to heart."

After hearing this, Xia Ruoan's mouth twitched slightly, and he secretly sighed in his heart: It's really unlucky for my son to have such an unreliable father.

Seeing his wife's disapproving look, Leng Zexi could only take the money and put it on Ningning's bedside table to ensure that he would see it when he woke up in the morning.

Leng Zexi casually glanced at the items on the middle counter, and his eyes were quickly attracted by the ceramic dolls among them.

Xia Ruoan’s cute little house was also placed there quietly, as if telling a warm and sweet story.

Next to it, there was an unopened ceramic doll sealed in a transparent glass box that was particularly eye-catching. This must be the gift that Ningning specially prepared for the little guy from the Wen family.

Leng Zexi gently picked up the unopened ceramic doll, examined it carefully, and then carefully put it back in its place. His eyes slowly moved to the three children sleeping soundly not far away, and a wave of emotion surged in his heart.

However, after not seeing each other for just over half a month, these children have changed so much.

It is said that children are like tender seedlings in spring, growing as soon as they are exposed to the wind. Today I have truly experienced this.

In the blink of an eye, they are all three years old. Recalling the scene when I first saw them, they were all still in cradles, with their tiny bodies curled up into a ball, like fragile kittens, so adorable.

But now, they are all plump and white, lively and active, full of vitality.

Especially when he saw their bright and pure eyes, Leng Zexi's heart was filled with joy.

Just like that, Leng Zexi silently watched these three innocent children, and time seemed to stand still at this moment.

After a long while, he reluctantly withdrew his gaze and turned to walk towards Xia Ruoan's bedroom.

As soon as I opened the door, I heard Xia Ruo'an's slightly puzzled voice: "Why did you come back just now?"

Leng Zexi smiled slightly and responded: "Why haven't you slept yet?"

After the two finished talking, their eyes met and they smiled at each other. This smile seemed to contain thousands of words and endless tacit understanding.

Leng Zexi walked slowly to the bed, then gently got on the bed, stretched out his arms and gently embraced Xia Ruoan in his arms.

"Ruoan, didn't you just say you were tired? Why don't you go to sleep first? You don't have to wait for me."

Leng Zexi's voice was low and caring, like a warm spring breeze blowing past Xia Ruoan's ears.

Xia Ruoan yawned and snuggled in Leng Zexi's arms, saying softly, "I want to wait for you to come back, and I do have something I want to tell you."

Leng Zexi smiled dotingly, gently stroked Xia Ruo'an's cheek with his fingers, and asked with pity: "What is the important matter that must be said now?"

As he spoke, he couldn't help but lower his head and kiss Xia Ruoan's face.

"It must be hard taking care of the children these days," Leng Zexi asked with concern.

Xia Ruoan shook his head slightly and said, "It's not particularly important, but I just wanted to talk to you about it."

"I think I'm fine. I'm not tired from taking care of three little ones, but I can still handle it."

"But if we talk about hardship, it must be Dad who has the hardest time. He is very angry with these naughty little kids, but Mom always protects the children, leaving Dad with no place to vent his anger."

At this point, Xia Ruo'an couldn't help laughing, and continued, "Especially the trees near our old house, they are almost peeled off by Ningning and the others, the bark is almost falling off!"

"And the fish in the pond. Every time I see them messing around, I worry that the fish are scared to death. They are lucky to be alive."

Xia Ruoan felt both funny and distressed when she thought of the love-hate, helpless expression on her father-in-law's face when he looked at Ningning and the others these days.

"When you're not at home, these three little brats are like wild horses that have broken free from their reins. They are impossible to control."

Xia Ruoan frowned and sighed helplessly, "I wonder how you managed to take care of them when you were alone at home."

"That's because you all spoil them too much and are reluctant to teach them a lesson, so these little guys have become lawless."

"They just deserve to be punished. Give them a good beating and they will surely become obedient and well behaved immediately."

Leng Zexi spoke with a serious face, as if he had his own unique insights and methods for educating children.

Then, he turned his gaze to his wife beside him and said slowly, "For a child like Ningning, beating him won't hurt. You can let him copy calligraphy, or give him a small punishment, such as making him stand in the corner or something."

"But it definitely won't work if you and your parents take him with you. After all, if Ningning stands there for just two more minutes, my parents will definitely be so distressed that they will immediately run over and pull him aside to coax him."

Speaking of this, Leng Zexi couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Then, he continued confidently, "But if I were there supervising, the situation would be completely different."

"Ningning will definitely be honest and well-behaved, and won't dare to do anything rash." After saying that, Leng Zexi deliberately raised his eyebrows at her, as if to show her his authority and ability as a father.

"Did you beat them when you led them by yourself before?" Xia Ruoan looked at them and asked.

Leng Zexi felt a little guilty when he saw Xia Ruo'an getting angry. "I didn't hit him hard. I just hit him once."

"Really?" Xia Ruoan looked at him doubtfully.

Xia Ruoan always thought that he spoiled his child, but she didn't expect that he would really beat him.

"Children should be beaten when they deserve it. They should not be spoiled." Leng Zexi said guiltily. He knew that his wife had always disapproved of beating children, so whenever he really did it, he would avoid his wife's presence.

"They are already sensible. Talk to them nicely and don't beat them for no reason." Xia Ruoan said worriedly.

"If the situation is really serious and requires physical violence, you should explain it clearly to them. If they really deserve a fight, I won't stop them, but you just have to be careful." Xia Ruoan looked at him and said.

He has taken care of most of the three children, and he knows their personalities better than I do. Not to mention that he loves them just as much as I do.

"Well, I know my limits." Leng Zexi nodded, feeling relieved that his wife understood him.

He didn't want his wife to dislike him because of their child's education.
