The two sisters were walking hand in hand down the street when a taxi pulled up and honked its horn.

Lin Yanwan subconsciously turned her head to look and realized that the license plate looked familiar.

Wait, no way...

Her heart skipped a beat.

But then Jiang Wende rolled down the car window and said, "I thought I was seeing things, but it really is you guys."

"Hello, Uncle Jiang," Lin Yanwan said respectfully, though a sigh escaped her lips.

What kind of day is today? First I bumped into my mother-in-law, and then I ran into my father-in-law.

No, it can't be called a chance encounter, since he recognized them first.

"Good evening, Yan. Are you going home? Get in the car, I'll take you back." Jiang Wende smiled heartily.

Thinking that refusing might be inappropriate and could lower her father-in-law's opinion of her, and since she had already ridden in the car so many times before, she figured one or two more wouldn't make a difference, so she nodded slightly and pulled her sister into the car.

Jiang Wende glanced at the rearview mirror and saw a cute backpack placed in the middle of the back seat.

Although he rarely inquired about his son's feelings, fortunately, he had a wife who was a teacher and Xiaoman's homeroom teacher, so he heard quite a lot from her.

For example, that guy often picks up his sister-in-law from school with his daughter-in-law.

It's strange that I didn't see him today.

"Did Xiaoman just get out of school?" Jiang Wende asked casually.

"Mmm, my sister came especially to pick me up. It's just a pity that Brother Jiang Xia didn't come, but my sister said he's waiting for me at home, hehe. Uncle Jiang, how did you find out about us?" Xiaoman asked innocently.

Lin Yanwan covered her face, her lips twitching violently. She should have just made up a lie to get by, and she shouldn't have dragged Xiaoman onto this train.

Jiang Wende nodded calmly. Now he finally knew where that kid was. It turned out he was at his daughter-in-law's house.

It's really inappropriate for a grown man to go to a girl's house every day; what if her parents see him?

"I turned around at that intersection and saw your backs looked familiar. I followed you for a while before I was sure."

"Oh! Uncle has such good eyesight!" Lin Xiaoman nodded emphatically.

A few minutes later, the taxi stopped at the Jinxiu Huacheng residential area. Lin Yanwan felt it was wrong to take advantage of the situation for free, so she took out ten yuan and handed it over, but Jiang Wende refused it outright.

Are you kidding me? He wouldn't accept money from his own daughter-in-law.

If his wife finds out, she'll definitely make him sleep on the sofa tonight.

"Xiaoman, quickly thank Uncle Jiang." She pulled Xiaoman out of the car, using her younger sister as a shield.

"Thank you, Uncle Jiang," Xiaoman said.

"You're welcome. Come visit my home sometime!" Jiang Wende said with a smile.

What was said in jest was taken seriously by the listener. Lin Yanwan blushed slightly. Why did the old couple say the same thing to her? Could it be that they had contacted each other before and shared information?

"Goodbye, Uncle Jiang. Teacher Xia said the exact same thing just now," Xiaoman waved.

Lin Yanwan: "..."

Jiang Wende paused for a moment, then chuckled and said, "Really? Then come and play more often. Uncle promises not to let Teacher Xia assign you too much homework."

"Really?! Yay!" Lin Xiaoman jumped up with joy.

As long as she doesn't have homework, she'll go to her brother-in-law's house, even if it's a den of dragons and tigers!

Lin Yanwan quickly pulled her sister back. If she continued talking, who knew what she might say? If she revealed that the two of them had kissed, it would be very embarrassing.

"Uncle Jiang, you go ahead and get busy, we'll head back now."

"Okay, Yanwan, could you please tell Jiang Xia that I'll come pick him up at 5:30 to go back for dinner?"

“…Okay.” She nodded stiffly.

If there were a crack in the ground here, she would definitely crawl into it and never come out, no matter what.

Watching the taxi drive away, Lin Yanwan pinched her younger sister's cheeks repeatedly.

"Waaaaah, sister, it hurts."

"Your sister is helping you improve blood circulation and remove blood stasis, Xiaoman. Just bear with it, it won't hurt for long," she said expressionlessly.

"But my sister looks so scary right now. I want to go home and find my brother-in-law. Waaah, my brother-in-law loves Xiaoman the most. He definitely wouldn't use such force."

"That's because I'm old... never mind."

Lin Yanwan suddenly sighed and gently rubbed her younger sister's cheek with her palm. After all, she was still a child, what did she know?

As soon as Xiaoman got home, she kept calling him "brother-in-law," but the living room was empty and no one was there, and the door to her sister's bedroom was locked and couldn't be opened.

Lin Yanwan took out her key and opened the door, saying helplessly, "Stop yelling, I'll let your brother-in-law out right now."

Jiang Xia had already put down his pencil and was waiting on the side. As soon as the door opened, he immediately picked up his sister-in-law and gently pinched her little nose.

"Why is Xiaoman back so early today?"

“My sister and I ran into Uncle Jiang on the way back~ He drove us back,” the sister-in-law said, tilting her chin slightly.

He looked at his wife with a puzzled expression, only to see Lin Yanwan nod helplessly.

"Your uncle also said he would come to pick you up at 5:30 to take you home for dinner."

"How did my dad find out?" Jiang Xia was slightly speechless.

Lin Yanwan ruffled Xiaoman's hair in an annoyed tone: "Of course, it was your sister-in-law who said it."

"Then how did Xiaoman know?" Jiang Xia asked again.

"My sister said it! Hehe." Lin Xiaoman pointed at her sister.

Lin Yanwan: "..."

So, in the end, she's the one who's wrong?

"Brother-in-law, after Xiaoman finishes her homework today, is there any new Tom and Jerry episode to watch?"

"Not yet, it'll be a few more days." Jiang Xia chuckled softly. "Go do your homework, then you can play with Taro Balls. Does Xiaoman like Taro Balls?"

"I love it! My sister said it was my brother-in-law who caught the taro balls, right?"

"It doesn't matter who caught it, the important thing is that your sister likes it. Okay, go do your homework."

"Mmm~"

When her younger sister returned to her room, Lin Yanwan quickly closed the door, tilted her head slightly, looked at him, and hummed softly, "Doggy, I want a hug too."

"Hmm, how about I give you a free kiss too?" Jiang Xia couldn't help but laugh, gently pulling her into his arms and lightly resting his chin on her head.

He loves his proud and jealous wife the most!

"Dream on."

Lin Yanwan pressed her ear against his chest, closed her eyes, and listened to his rhythmic heartbeat.

"How many have you drawn?"

"We should be able to finish the storyboard the day after tomorrow," Jiang Xia estimated the progress and said, "Then I'll help Lao Wang with some of the key animation work, and we should be able to submit the manuscript before the 25th."

"Yeah, but don't overwork yourself."

Lin Yanwan suddenly wrapped her arms around his neck, raised her head, and brought her pink and alluring lips to his face, kissing him deeply. Her sweet, orchid-scented whispers echoed in his ear.

"This is today's kiss..."

...

(good evening)
