Qiao Wanwan turned her head and saw Zhan Jingting walking over.

"ah?"

"I called you so many times, didn't you hear me?" Zhan Jingting walked up to her, raised his hand and touched her forehead. "Are you feeling unwell?"

Qiao Wanwan pushed his hand away. "No, I was just thinking about something, so I was distracted."

"Wanwan, you don't look well." Zhan Jingting frowned slightly. "Are you sure you're not sick?"

“Of course.” Qiao Wanwan smiled slightly. “I’m a doctor, how could I not even know if I’m sick or not?”

Zhan Jingting took her hand. "I'll walk with you."

"Okay." Qiao Wanwan asked as she walked forward, "Jingting, why have you never told me you have a cousin like this?"

“What’s there to say?” Zhan Jingting explained, “My mother’s family all live abroad. She likes Tangtang, so Tangtang grew up in our family. She went abroad to study in recent years and has come back less often.”

“I think she’s quite sensible. At least she didn’t use moral blackmail, saying she was going to study for your sake, even though that’s exactly what she did.”

Zhan Jingting neither confirmed nor denied it, saying, "It's precisely because she's sensible that Mom likes her so much."

"Hmm." Qiao Wanwan smiled. "Do you think I look like her?"

"Really?" Zhan Jingting stopped and turned to look at her face carefully. "It seems like there is a little."

Qiao Wanwan's fingertips trembled slightly. "Really? I didn't notice."

"She's not as pretty as you."

Qiao Wanwan was not happy. She turned around and continued walking forward. "Everyone has a different definition of beauty and ugliness. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder."

"My wife Zhan is more beautiful than Xi Shi."

"Stop being so glib."

"......"

The two of them took a walk and went back, where they saw Ruan Tang coming out in sportswear.

Ruan Tang's originally waist-length curly hair was now tied into a bun, making her look youthful and vibrant. Paired with her signature smile, she was a beauty that grew on you.

“Brother Jingting, you’re back just in time. I was just about to go look for you.”

Zhan Jingting asked, "You want to play squash with me?"

"Smart!" Ruan Tang said with a smile. "I wonder if you'll still be able to fight after all these years."

"You'll see once you try it." Zhan Jingting looked at the girl beside him. "Squash is a sport that Tangtang and I both like. Do you want to join us?"

"No."

"Sister-in-law, let's go together!" Ruan Tang invited enthusiastically. "How about we team up and beat my brother to a pulp?"

"I don't know how to play squash, and I have to go keep National Day company, you guys go play."

Ruan Tang said playfully, "Then, sister-in-law, can I borrow Brother Jingting from you for a while? I'll return him to you soon."

Qiao Wanwan smiled but didn't say anything.

Zhan Jingting and Ruan Tang left quickly, and Qiao Wanwan found Eleven in the game room. "I'm not playing anymore. Mommy will take you to do your craft homework."

"Mommy, this is a game console that Aunt Tangtang bought for me. It's so much fun! Do you want to try it?"

"Mommy doesn't want to play anymore, so we can't play anymore during the National Day holiday. We can play again tomorrow."

"Okay, I promise Mommy I can only play for one hour each day, and I'll keep my word for National Day."

Looking at her well-behaved son, Qiao Wanwan felt much of the frustration in her chest dissipate. "Eleven is the best boy."

"Mommy, where's Daddy?"

"Daddy went to play ball with Aunt Tangtang."

"That's great!" Eleven hugged her excitedly. "With Daddy gone, Mommy is all mine now!"

"Okay, let's do our homework."

"good."

Qiao Wanwan helped Shiyi finish his craft homework and then supervised him as he packed his schoolbag.

Eleven is quite independent and not spoiled. She does everything by herself, even taking a bath by herself.

Qiao Wanwan waited for him to finish his shower and then lay down with him, saying, "Go to sleep on November 11th. Mommy will stay here with you."

Goodnight, Mommy.

"good evening."

After Shiyi fell asleep, Qiao Wanwan turned off the bedside lamp and quietly left.

As soon as I stepped out of the room, I saw Zhan Jingting and Ruan Tang walking towards me, chatting and laughing.

"Sister-in-law." Ruan Tang greeted Qiao Wanwan warmly, "I have good news for you, I won the squash match today!"

"congratulations."

Ruan Tang was very happy. "As punishment, Brother Jingting is going to give me a gift."

Zhan Jingting went to the study and quickly returned with a beautifully packaged gift box. "Take this."

Ruan Tang took it, opened it, and exclaimed with delight, "Wow! It's so beautiful!"

Qiao Wanwan looked closely and saw that it was a dazzling ruby ​​bracelet. She had accidentally seen it in Zhan Jingting's study yesterday and originally thought it was a gift for her, but she had been delusional.

Ruan Tang sensibly said, "Brother Jingting, I saw this bracelet in a magazine. It's too valuable. I can't accept it."

Zhan Jingting said, "You weren't polite to me before, why are you being so polite now?"

“The past is the past. Now that you have a sister-in-law, things are different.” Ruan Tang rolled her eyes and said, “But I know you. You never take back what you’ve given away, so I’ll accept it.”

“However, I’m going to use this as a gift to give to my sister-in-law.” Ruan Tang looked at Qiao Wanwan. “Sister-in-law, I was supposed to prepare a gift for you when I came back this time, but I felt that nothing was worthy of you, so I couldn’t find anything I liked. I think my brother’s bracelet is very suitable for you, so please accept it. It was a token of my sister’s goodwill.”

Before Qiao Wanwan could refuse, Zhan Jingting spoke first, "Your sister-in-law doesn't like such vibrant colors, you can keep it for yourself."
