Before the divorce.
Jiang Tong's scumbag ex-husband placed three curses on her.
One, after leaving him, she would definitely live a miserable life and couldn't survive without h...
On the other side...
After exercising early in the morning, Zhou Yuansheng was wearing only a pair of sports pants, revealing his well-defined abs and pectoral muscles. While drinking water, he casually scrolled through his WeChat Moments and saw Jiang Tong's post, which was a picture of the two sisters sleeping in a mess.
So cute!
Both of her daughters look very much like her; they are almost identical.
Zhou Yuansheng casually gave it a thumbs up.
Jiang Tong's message arrived quickly: "Did Qiqi oversleep again today? I made sandwiches today, do you want me to bring him one?"
She wouldn't ask the child directly about what to feed him, but would instead consult Zhou Yuansheng, since the guardian's consent was still required.
Jiang Tong also sent over a photo of a sandwich, filled with white salad and sesame sauce, bacon, mashed potatoes, Orleans chicken cutlet, lettuce, and tomato.
It looks incredibly tempting.
Zhou Yuansheng suddenly felt hungry, and his stomach began to rumble.
He was somewhat annoyed.
Where did my self-control go? Did I throw it into outer space?
While inwardly criticizing herself, she still sent the message with an air of composure and utmost calmness: "Then please prepare a portion for Jiaqi; he really likes your cooking."
After receiving the message, Jiang Tong replied immediately. Then, after a moment's hesitation, she politely asked, "If you don't mind, would you like me to prepare a copy for you as well?"
She said she had coffee as a drink, and that she had just bought a coffee machine and was quite into it lately, enjoying making her own coffee, so she wanted to try it out.
Despite feeling guilty about gaining weight, Zhou Yuansheng finally replied: Okay, then I really need your help.
Jiang Tong replied instantly: Hahaha, no, I quite enjoy researching food. I was just worried that I didn't have enough friends to feed. It's okay, you don't need to be shy.
She wasn't lying.
Jiang Tong does indeed enjoy researching food, and she can make all kinds of desserts. Every time she finishes making them, she likes to pack them up beautifully and feed them to her friends.
That's why she has such good relationships with her friends, because they keep in touch frequently.
Even though we don't talk much usually because we're all busy with work.
But they have never lost contact; Jiang Tong maintains their friendship through food.
Zhou Yuansheng was truly happy and couldn't help but think that it would be wonderful to eat such delicious food every day. However, after belatedly realizing that he had such a thought, he was stunned and realized that he had been too rude.
He actually keeps thinking about other people's food.
...
I feel very lost.
However, Jiang Tong possesses a kind of magic that makes people feel peaceful involuntarily.
No wonder her son likes her.
Zhou Yuansheng was pondering things when he suddenly remembered that his son hadn't gotten up yet. He immediately strode over and saw the old butler coaxing the young master to get up. Zhou Jiaqi only had his butt sticking out, his head buried in the blanket like an ostrich. The father went over and slapped him.
Zhou Jiaqi, that little brat, immediately sat up, his temper flaring up. He had just been about to unleash his fury like Godzilla, but when he saw it was his own dad, he wilted.
Finally, he obediently rubbed his sore bottom, got up, washed up, and went to school. He hummed as he walked, saying how nice Aunt Jiang was, and she would even pick him up and comfort him. Unlike his own father, who would just slap his bottom. It's just outrageous.
Zhou Yuansheng found it both amusing and intriguing, and he teased, "Zhou Jiaqi."
The little brat covered his bottom and ran to the bathroom.
The old butler was also cheerful. He had been calling his young master all morning, but still couldn't wake him. He wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "Then, young master, I'll have someone bring over the breakfast we ate on the way."
Zhou Yuansheng said, "No need, Jiang Tong made Jiaqi's breakfast."
Seeing this, the old butler was not surprised at all, and immediately nodded and said, "Oh, good, good, then I'll have someone prepare your breakfast?"
Unexpectedly, his young master calmly said, "Oh? I don't need mine either, Jiang Tong has already prepared mine."
Old Butler: ...
Wait, young master, what's with that proud tone you're using?
What do you have to be proud of?
The old butler suddenly remembered how his master had been pursuing his wife; the young master now looked exactly like his master back then.
He couldn't help but shudder, recalling the fear of being dominated by those two's displays of affection over the years. It was precisely because he didn't want to eat that dog food that he chose to work for the young master.
So, even his young master has reached this stage? He couldn't help but burst into tears.
Zhou Yuansheng was almost startled and asked in confusion, "What's wrong, sir...?"
This old housekeeper and his mother have been acting "crazy" for quite some time now.
This is the first time I've suddenly cried like this.
It's kind of scary.
Uncle He simply pulled a handkerchief from his pocket to wipe his tears and said, "It's nothing, I just remembered some touching things."
Zhou Yuansheng was filled with respect. This was truly a sentimental old man. "Well, please take care of yourself, old man. Crying too much will harm your health."
Uncle He left with a melancholy expression.
The other servants looked at each other, not daring to utter a sound. Rich people are all pretty crazy.
Jiang Tong prepared two breakfasts and brewed a cup of Americano with the coffee machine. Zhou Yuansheng said he liked this kind of coffee, which was quite simple.
When she took her two children downstairs, she saw Zhou Yuansheng and his son.
Jiang Tong handed breakfast to the two of them. Zhou Jiaqi kept greeting Hanhan and even wanted to get out of the car and ride in Jiang Tong's car with Hanhan.
Zhou Yuansheng told him to stop making trouble.
Hanhan said maturely, "We only have two car seats."
There wasn't enough room for Zhou Jiaqi.
Zhou Jiaqi felt a pang of regret and was quite unhappy. He also noticed that Peipei was sulking.
He felt that Peipei had stolen his good friend.
Peipei wasn't happy to see him either, but she was happy that he couldn't ride in her mother's car. She grabbed Hanhan's arm and made a face at Zhou Jiaqi.
Jiang Tong and Zhou Yuansheng simultaneously called on their children to stop their behavior. They were both taken aback, then looked at each other and couldn't help but laugh.
"You guys go first, I'll be there with Hanhan and Peipei in a bit."
Zhou Yuansheng accepted the breakfast and said okay.
We part ways for now.
Jiang Tong also took the two children to her own parking space to find her car, and only drove to the kindergarten after settling them in. She didn't drive much before.
Although it's only a short walk, she had to visit some friends' homes today to deliver delicious snacks and homemade drinks, so she chose to drive.
Otherwise, walking to the kindergarten is also an option.
The kindergarten is very close to the community, only about a ten-minute walk away.
When Jiang Tong arrived at the kindergarten, she ran into Zhou Yuansheng, who was still there. He asked her if she was going to enroll Peipei in kindergarten today. Jiang Tong smiled and said yes.
The two of them have been less mindful of boundaries lately, since they've become friends.
We chatted briefly before parting ways.
After Jiang Tong completed the enrollment procedures for her child, she also paid a large sum of money.
She is very willing to spend money on her children.
I'm never stingy.
It just means that raising two daughters will require more effort in the future.
I also need to earn more money.
