Early the next morning.

When Ji Fuling opened her eyes, there was no trace of the drowsy sleepiness of someone who had just woken up; instead, there was only the restlessness that came after insomnia.

Last night, after I lay down, every time I closed my eyes, images of Ye Nanqing and that girl together would appear before my eyes. It was like my computer had a virus that I couldn't delete.

This kept her tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep.

She once suspected that she had been bewitched.

Scratching her hair, Ji Fuling sat up in bed, feeling dejected.

Ji Tiantian, who was next to her, also woke up. She wobbled and sat up, leaning against Ji Fuling, and said indistinctly, "Mommy, good morning~"

Ji Fuling lowered her head and kissed the little girl's soft little face. "Good morning, baby."

The little girl woke up a bit and, looking at her mother's dark circles, exclaimed in surprise, "Huh? Mommy, why do you have panda eyes?"

Really? No way!

Ji Fuling subconsciously touched the area around her eyes.

Ji Tiantian blinked her big, bright eyes, unsure how to describe it, and could only say, "Mommy, you should go and see for yourself."

Upon hearing this, Ji Fuling felt it seemed quite serious, so she quickly got out of bed and ran into the bathroom.

Standing in front of the mirror by the sink, looking at her two huge dark circles, she was speechless.

Given the situation, I probably can't leave the house today without wearing eye makeup...

On the bed, little Ji Tiantian stretched and suddenly remembered something very important.

She raised her little hand, tapped on the phone watch on her wrist, found "Handsome Uncle" in her contacts, and initiated a video call...

Right now, Ye Nanqing is having breakfast at the Emperor's villa.

His phone was on the dining table, and when he saw it was his little girl calling, he answered it without thinking.

Ji Tiantian's cute and delicate face quickly appeared on the screen.

A soft, sweet voice followed, "Good morning, handsome uncle!"

"Good morning."

Ye Nanqing's cold expression softened slightly.

Strangely enough, every time he saw this little girl, he felt an inexplicable sense of closeness, and a certain part of his heart would suddenly soften.

"Handsome uncle, did you see the photos from yesterday?"

After whispering this, Ji Tiantian blinked, giving a frantic hint.

Ye Nanqing naturally understood what the little girl meant. Looking at her sly little expression, he couldn't help but be charmed. His deep voice carried a hint of laughter, "The photos are very well taken. The reward will be delivered today."

"Yay! Handsome uncle is so nice, Sweetie likes you even more!"

The thought of soon owning the latest Peppa Pig merchandise made little Ji Tiantian jump for joy.

After washing up, Ji Fuling came out and stood by the bed, looking at the smiling little girl. She asked suspiciously, "Who are you talking to?"

In the bathroom, she could vaguely hear the little girl's voice, but she couldn't make out what she was saying.

Feeling guilty, Ji Tiantian quickly put the hand wearing the phone watch behind her back and shook her head in a self-deceptive manner, "No, Tiantian didn't talk to anyone..."

Ji Fuling had already seen the little girl's movements, so she sat down on the bed and pulled her hand over.

On the small screen of the watch, Ye Nanqing's perfect and impeccable handsome face was clearly displayed.

It has to be said, this face can easily bewitch people.

You could be captured if you're not careful.

Ji Fuling pursed her lips, trying her best to ignore her suddenly racing heartbeat, and secretly warned herself that she must not be like Ji Tiantian, that little infatuated girl, and be fooled by this man's appearance.

Didn't sleep well last night?

The man's deep, magnetic voice came through the screen, instantly pulling Ji Fuling back from her wandering thoughts.

When she thought about last night, she remembered those photos that had kept her awake at night.

Whether it was the irritability caused by insomnia affecting her mood, or some other reason, she felt somewhat resentful.

She frowned slightly, looked at the man on the other side of the screen, and said seriously, "Uncle, you already have a girlfriend, so don't go around flirting and having affairs everywhere. That's not good, it's just like being a scumbag."

"Also, Tian Tian is young and doesn't understand things. Please don't take what she said before seriously. I'm hanging up now, goodbye."

Before Ye Nanqing could say anything, Ji Fuling hung up the call.

Ji Tiantian's face fell, and her eyes held a hint of resentment. "Mommy, I haven't said goodbye to the handsome uncle yet..."

"Your uncle is very busy and has a lot of things to do. You're not allowed to cling to him anymore, understand?"

Ji Fuling took the opportunity to give her a lecture.

Ji Tiantian pouted unhappily and did not agree.

Hmph~ It's impossible to tell her to stop clinging to the handsome uncle, unless the handsome uncle says it to her in person!

Seeing her daughter's stubborn little expression, Ji Fuling felt a little helpless and reached out to pull her out of bed. "Get up quickly, wash your face and brush your teeth. After you finish eating, Mommy will take you and your brother to school."

Meanwhile, Ye Nanqing, sitting at the dining table, looked at his phone screen, which had gone dark, and frowned in thought.

What is this woman saying?

What girlfriend?

What does it mean to be a womanizer and have affairs everywhere?

He has no other women around him besides her, so where did this girlfriend come from?

Is she still holding a grudge about what happened at Huixiangxuan last time?

But hasn't he already explained it all?

At this moment, Chen Heng walked in from outside, bowed respectfully, and said, "Mr. Ye, there's something I need to ask you. Those business partners I met in Licheng last time would like to see you again. What do you think..."

Ye Nanqing glanced at him and suddenly asked, "Do you know how to coax a woman?"

"ah?!"

Chen Heng was completely bewildered and had no idea what was happening.

Ye Nanqing looked at him coldly, "What 'huh'? Are you deaf?"

Chen Heng shook his head repeatedly, "No, no..."

I just thought I was hallucinating...

How do you appease a woman who's inexplicably unhappy?

Ye Nanqing asked again with a sullen face, his voice clearly stiff.

"Well……"

Chen Heng scratched his head, quickly recalling his methods for appeasing his girlfriend. "Generally speaking, I guess sending some flowers or gifts would be enough, right?"

Anyway, he always uses this trick to appease his girlfriend.

As for whether it will be useful to Miss Ji, that's hard to say.

Ye Nanqing's dark eyes narrowed slightly, his slender fingers tapping casually on the table, seemingly considering Chen Heng's idea...

9:30 a.m.

After dropping her three children off at school, Ji Fuling went to the company.

As she passed through the office area, she keenly sensed that the employees' gazes toward her were filled with gossip.

Just as Ji Fuling was filled with doubt, Su Ling ran over with the documents to be signed, "Good morning, President Ji!"

Seeing the mysterious smile on her face, Ji Fuling couldn't help but ask, "Why are you all acting so strangely so early in the morning? What's going on?"

Su Ling chuckled, "You'll see when you go to the office."

Filled with suspicion, Ji Fuling walked toward the office.

The moment I pushed open the door, I was stunned to see the room filled with roses, leaving no room to even step.

She turned to look at Su Ling, who had followed her, and asked, "What's going on?"
