"What do you think?" Jiang Si found it amusing; other families desperately wanted their sons to become dragons and their daughters to become phoenixes.

He, on the other hand, was only worried that his daughter would get tired.

With a slight smile, Jiang Si said, "You know your daughter. She may be young, but she's very determined. Once she sets her mind on something, she'll stick to it wholeheartedly."

It wasn't just daughters; sons were the same.

When it comes to doting on her children, Jiang Si is no less than Huo Tingzhou.

She also hopes that the children can have more time to play.

But the child has his own ideas and is so hardworking and ambitious, what else can she say but to fully support him?

“Let them decide their own lives,” Jiang Si said.

With these words, Huo Tingzhou was finally persuaded.

The two talked for a while longer. After Jiang Si told him to take good care of his health, she hung up the phone.

The next morning, bodyguard Xiaolin came to pick us up early. We boarded the plane at 9:00 a.m. sharp and landed at Shanghai Airport before 11:30 a.m.

This is the first time the two little ones have come to Shanghai, and their first impression of Shanghai is that it is very beautiful.

My second impression was, "My mom's house is huge!"

To be honest, their new home, including their old house, is already quite large.

Otherwise, the brother and sister wouldn't have been able to sleep in separate rooms at such a young age.

But it still can't compare to the house in front of us.

Upon entering the house, the two little ones were dazzled by the high ceilings of the living room and the crystal chandelier.

Seeing the two little ones looking up with wide eyes in amazement, Jiang Si put down her luggage and then led them on a tour of the rooms upstairs and downstairs.

In recent years, my third uncle and Uncle Zhong have always come back to stay for a few days after the Lunar New Year.

The house has been gradually furnished with a lot of furniture and household items, and someone comes to clean it regularly every month.

The house is almost unchanged since she left four years ago.

As Jiang Si walked, she introduced the place to the child until they reached the corner on the second floor.

She pushed open the door, looked around carefully for a while, and then said, "This room used to be where your father lived."

"Where does Daddy live?" The two little ones widened their eyes in surprise.

Isn't Dad in Beijing?

How could he be living at his mother's house!

“Your father has lived here since he was six years old.”

As Jiang Si was saying this, she was still lost in her own thoughts and didn't notice that the two children were looking at her with eyes full of gossip, as if they had discovered a new continent.

"Dad has lived here since he was six years old?"

"Mom, was Dad naughty when he was little?"

"..."

As they were asking questions, the brother and sister suddenly exclaimed, "Why doesn't Dad live at his own house? Why does he stay at Mom's?"

Jiang Si didn't know if other people's children were easy to fool, but her two children were definitely not.

So Jiang Si picked out some things she could say and said them.

As for Huo Tingzhou's abduction and the hardships he had suffered, Jiang Si made no mention of them.

The two little ones are thoughtful and naturally sensitive.

Zhao Zhao, in particular, has an extremely strong ability to empathize.

If they knew that their seemingly invincible father had endured such hardships as a child, they would probably be heartbroken for a long time.

After mentioning a few more interesting things, Jiang Si quickly changed the subject.

"Alright, let's talk about the rest when Dad gets back. Which room are you sleeping in tonight?"

Upon hearing this, the brother and sister immediately asked, "Mom, can we sleep in Dad's room?"

Jiang Si feigned jealousy, saying, "I thought you guys would want to sleep with me tonight."

The main reason I say this is out of concern.

Unlike Beijing, there's no central heating here; getting into bed at night relies entirely on sheer willpower.

She was worried that if the two little ones slept alone, they might kick off their blankets and catch a cold.

The two little ones looked visibly conflicted after hearing this.

Dad said they're big kids now, and big kids sleep by themselves!

And even if they sleep with their mother, it's no use, because when their father comes, they still have to go back to their own rooms.

But when Mom finally spoke up, it seemed she really needed them.

Also, Mom seems to be particularly sensitive to the cold.

Thinking about all this, the two little ones decisively changed their minds; they wanted to sleep with their mother and warm her bed!

But it turned out the two little ones were right; they only slept in their mother's room for less than three days.

When they woke up again, the two were already asleep in their own small bed.

When Zhao Zhao came out rubbing her eyes, she ran into her brother, who looked completely bewildered, as he walked out of the room across the street.

The brother and sister looked at each other in the corridor and sighed at the same time.

No one but my dad could have done this!

In the master bedroom, Jiang Si was both annoyed and amused. "Couldn't you have waited until they woke up on their own before carrying them over?"

Then she became worried again, "It's so cold inside, won't they catch a cold if you take them out of bed?"

As he spoke, he was about to lift the covers and get out of bed to take a look.

"No." Huo Tingzhou hugged her from behind. "I preheated the room for the two children with a heater."

"What's the point of drying it? The bedding..."

"The bed has been warmed up."

"It's warmed up?" Jiang Si gave him a strange look. Was that what she meant?

Huo Tingzhou felt a little uncomfortable under their gaze, so he simply admitted, "I warmed it myself, I guarantee it will be even warmer than the current one."

“Huo Tingzhou, you…” Jiang Si was stunned for a moment.

To get their child to sleep alone, they even went so far as to 'warm the bed'?
