"Hmm." A hint of worry flashed in Li Zhanting's eyes, but he still put the documents away.

"Let Zhan Feng handle things on his own for now. We should also go back to the capital as soon as possible."

"Yes! Just like I thought. I haven't seen Wanrou lately, and I miss her too!"

Gu Momo laughed as she spoke: "Of course, I have a very important task—to get these two little brats into the capital!"

With those two little brats around, she has to be on tenterhooks every single day!

Li Zhanting pretended to be angry: "I'll go and cripple those two and bring them to you to confess your sins."

"Alright, look how much you've spoiled these two boys, and you still have the heart to hit them?" Gu Momo teased, nudging Li Zhanting with her elbow. "I just did something a little trick, do you want to come with me to the William family?"

"Of course we'll go!" Li Zhanting then pulled out some information from his phone to show Gu Momo. "I secretly had someone investigate the William family and discovered something important. I think Momo will be very interested in these things."

Gu Momo quickly flipped through the information on her phone, her eyes lighting up with excitement.

"Well done, Li Zhanting! You managed to get your hands on something so important! You were much faster than me!"

Li Zhanting's eyes were full of smiles: "It's no trouble at all. Momo, please feel free to use this information."

"Then I won't stand on ceremony with you! Thank you, big brother!" Gu Momo patted Li Zhanting's shoulder affectionately.

Li Zhanting's lips twitched violently, his handsome face as black as the bottom of a pot.

He doesn't want to be Momo's older brother; he wants to be Momo's husband!

The two quickly went downstairs, where the hotel chef had already prepared a sumptuous breakfast. Gu Jingxing and Li Zixiao sat obediently at the table, appearing exceptionally well-behaved. Anyone who didn't know better would think that these two brothers were really obedient.

Gu Momo glanced at the two of them, then looked at the hotel maid beside her: "Haven't Dad and Mom come down yet?"

The hotel staff were all replaced by Li Zhanting and Gu Momo's people. Since they were going to stay in Y country temporarily, Gu Momo and Li Zhanting simply changed the entire hotel to their preferred style and design, and the property rights belonged entirely to the two of them.

The maid quickly smiled and said to Gu Momo, "The Duke and Duchess are busy right now."

Both Gu Momo and Li Zhanting saw the gossip in the maid's eyes, and Gu Momo's eyes lit up instantly:

"Really? So Dad went to Mom's room as soon as he got back yesterday? Could Dad still be in his room now?"

No sooner had he finished speaking than Li Zhanting coughed, feigning seriousness, "Ahem..."

Gu Momo turned her head and saw Li Zhanting saying gently and earnestly, "Momo, the children are still here."

After listening, Gu Momo turned her gaze to Gu Jingxing and Li Zixiao. The two little ones were obediently holding their bowls, their big, dark eyes staring at her with a clear, innocent look in them.

"Oh? These two brats?" Gu Momo glanced at them casually, but Gu Jingxing and Li Zixiao both sensed the murderous intent!

The two quickly hugged their bowls and chopsticks tightly, their small bodies standing straight, not daring to make a sound!

At the table, Li Zhanting casually wiped his fingers with a handkerchief, his voice soothing and pleasant: "There's no need to disturb them. Have the cook prepare some nourishing food, and bring it to Mom and Dad's room when they wake up."

The servants, sensing that Li Zhanting meant for them to leave, quickly nodded politely, "Yes, Master Ting, we'll go right away."

"Hmm, Zhan Ting is quite thoughtful!" Gu Momo sat down next to Li Zhan Ting, picked up a spoon, and her smile concealed a murderous intent.

"When I go back to the capital, you two won't refuse to come back with me, right? Otherwise, you'll just stay here?"

The presence of hidden razor blades made Gu Jingxing and Li Zixiao both shudder: Mommy looks like she's going to eat people alive!

"No, no, of course we will listen to Mommy..." The two brothers shook their heads repeatedly.

However, Gu Jingxing looked more playful, while Li Zixiao's handsome face appeared exceptionally well-behaved. Even while he was outwitting Gu Momo, a cute smile appeared on his well-behaved face: "Don't worry, Mommy, I will listen to you."

After saying that, the two of them looked at Li Zhanting with pleading eyes: Daddy, please do something about Mommy!

Li Zhanting, however, gracefully placed the freshly cut steak onto Gu Momo's plate, his gaze towards Gu Jingxing and Li Zixiao cool: "After you finish eating, go write a self-criticism and let me read it myself, otherwise you'll have to eat lunch standing up from now on."

Gu Jingxing and Li Zixiao: ? ? ? ?

Why is Daddy taking Mommy's side?

The two men frantically gave Li Zhanting meaningful glances, their eyes saying: Daddy, we need you to put in a good word for us!

Li Zhanting's deep, mellow voice came slowly and deliberately: "Making you write self-criticisms is already a very light punishment for you. You made my wife angry, shouldn't you be punished? This is my wife, isn't it only right that I help my wife?"

The tone was as if to say: If I don't help my wife, who will? Got it?

Gu Jingxing finally couldn't hold back anymore, his cheeks puffed out in anger: "Daddy, this is still our Mommy!"

Look at Daddy's tone, it sounds like Mommy belongs to him alone!

Li Zhanting smiled and fed the steak into his mouth, a wicked smile playing on his lips: "Of course she's your mommy. But she's my wife first, then your mommy. Do you understand the order of arrival? Without my wife, would you have your mommy?"
