Lan Qingyue sat anxiously beside Grandma Yu, not daring to look at the Samoyed lying quietly on the ground. She kept praying that Chu Chu would get hungry, thirsty, and sleepy soon, so that she could take Chu Chu home.

As it turned out, she had underestimated the energy of a child. Not only did Chu Chu pet the dog, but she also picked it up and ran around with it. She could barely walk steadily herself, yet she was carrying the dog. All of Lan Qingyue's emotions culminated in a long, drawn-out sigh, "Sigh..."

Away from the dog, Lan Qingyue chatted with Grandma Yu. Grandma Yu had lived here for more than ten years. Her children were busy with work and rarely came back. From Grandma Yu's words, Lan Qingyue learned that the original owner had a good relationship with Grandma Yu. Grandma Yu did not look at the original owner with prejudice because of the news on the Internet. It wasn't until the sun set and dark shadows occasionally swept across the sky that the three of them and the dog reluctantly parted ways.

With a new baby in the house, Lan Qingyue still couldn't fully immerse herself in her role. Although Chu Chu didn't cry much, she was quite mischievous. During bath time, she insisted on playing in the water, soaking Lan Qingyue completely. After carrying Chu Chu back to bed, Lan Qingyue took a shower. She was going to sleep right away, but she was worried and went to check on Chu Chu in her room. The little baby was lying on the soft quilt, her round white belly exposed, her dark eyes wide open.

"Chuchu, why aren't you asleep yet?"

As soon as Chu Chu saw Lan Qingyue, she jumped up like a carp, bouncing onto the quilt and begging for a hug, "Mommy~ tell me a story~~"

Lan Qingyue paused, "..." How could I tell a story? No one ever told her a story when she was little.

Is it too late to sneak back to my room now?

Chuchu: "Mommy, tell me the story of the Little Mermaid~~"

The child's eyes were so pure, her gaze so expectant, and Lan Qingyue's heart softened. She walked over and let Chu Chu lean against her, unable to resist stroking her soft little curly hair. "Wait a minute, let me go online and look up that story first."

Lan Qingyue had read the story of the mermaid when she was a child, but she had long forgotten it over the years.

"Mommy, the book is over there~~~" Chu Chu pointed with her chubby little hand, and Lan Qingyue then noticed a fairy tale book on the desk.

Lan Qingyue resignedly took the fairy tale book and told Chu Chu several stories. After listening to the sixth story, the little dumpling finally grinned and let out a big yawn.

After her first day as a "mom," Lan Qingyue was listless, like a fish out of water, her mind blank, and she fell asleep.

With the press conference approaching, Axi was busy with other things and could only call Lan Qingyue to tell her to buy what she needed. After the press conference, the guests would go to other places to film with the production crew, making it difficult to go to the supermarket to buy things.

After catching up on sleep and getting plenty of rest, Lan Qingyue finally chose a cloudy day to take Chu Chu out.

Lan Qingyue opted for a natural look, without makeup, and wore a sun hat and a mask. She chose a super pink princess dress for Chu Chu and dressed her in stylish little leather shoes. The little one insisted on wearing two topknots today. When Lan Qingyue tried to put the hat on her, she refused, puffing out her chubby cheeks and saying in a sweet, childish voice, "Mommy, the hat will cover my little topknots~"

Lan Qingyue: "..."

Lan Qingyue untied her little bun without saying a word, casually flicked it a few times with her hand, and said with a smug look, "Alright, the little bun is gone, you can wear your hat obediently now, right?"

Where is my little pigtail?

The bewildered toddler: "..."
