Chapter 48: The Wicked Stepmother Who Abandoned the Twins (48)

"gentlemen."

The nanny was somewhat surprised to see the beautiful young lady next to the man.

Gu Ci said to the nanny, "From now on, she will be my wife. Treat her the same way you treat me."

nanny:"!!!"

"Yes...yes, madam."

Wen Wan: "Hello, don't be nervous."

"Where are Xuanxuan and Jiaojiao?" Gu Ci asked.

Nanny: "They're studying upstairs. Should I go and call them down?"

"I'll go upstairs. Take good care of Madam." Gu Ci gave Wen Wan a reassuring look and went upstairs.

"Please sit down, Madam. Would you like tea or juice?"

"Juice bar."

"Yes, madam." The nanny quickly went to make the juice.

Wen Wan was almost dying of nervousness. "Is that bastard here? What if Xuanxuan and Jiaojiao don't like me later and point at me and yell: I don't want you, I want my mother, you vixen get out of my house."

"what do I do?"

System: It has no experience with this either!

"What if they hate me?"

Soon the nanny brought over the juice, and Wen Wan nervously downed it in one gulp, which relieved some of her tension.

"Does Madam wish to continue?"

"Could...could I have another drink?" She felt she was still a little thirsty.

The nanny looked at the beautiful Wen Wan, whose temperament was as gentle as the previous mistress, and said, "Of course, this is the mistress's home. She can drink as much as she wants."

"Thanks."

Soon, after Wen Wan finished her second glass of juice, Gu Ci came downstairs with the two children.

Wen Wan stood up nervously and placed the cup on the coffee table.

Little Jiaojiao looked at Wen Wan curiously, "I've seen you before, are you a pretty older sister?"

Wen Wan: "You... hello, my name is... my name is Wen Wan."

"Are you our new mom?" Xiao Jiaojiao asked curiously.

Wen Wan nervously gripped her fingers tightly. "If...if you don't like it, you can call me Auntie, I...I can do either." Wen Wan's throat started to go dry again from fear.

"Mommy~"

Wen Wan's eyes widened in surprise; she hadn't expected Jiao Jiao to call her "Mom."

My eyes felt hot. "Mmm."

"Thank you for taking my dad in. As long as you treat my dad well, Jiaojiao will treat you well too. That way, Dad won't be sad because he can't see Mom anymore."

"I will be good to him."

Wen Wan hugged Xiao Jiaojiao while crying. She never expected that Jiaojiao would actually be able to call her "Mom" one day.

Little Jiao Jiao smelled her new mother's scent and, for some reason, it felt just like her previous mother's.

But she didn't expect that her new mother would be such a crybaby.

Xiao Jiaojiao patted Wen Wan's head to comfort her, "Don't cry, don't cry."

Little Gu Xuan didn't call out to Wen Wan. Unlike his sister, he couldn't accept this stranger becoming his nominal mother right away.

Wen Wan stayed close to Xiao Jiaojiao. She originally wanted to go close to Xiao Xuanxuan, but seeing the wariness in Xiao Xuanxuan's eyes, she withdrew her little antennae.

It's already a perfect start.

Dinner time arrived quickly.

Wen Wan kept putting food on Xiao Jiao Jiao's plate, her eyes fixed on Xiao Jiao Jiao's face.

Neither side received a glance, leaving Gu Ci feeling ignored: "..."

I'm feeling a bit suddenly annoyed.

"Want more? This shrimp is delicious, I can peel it." She reached out to take the shrimp, but Gu Ci took it from her first, peeled it, and handed it to Wen Wan, who immediately put it in Xiao Jiaojiao's bowl.

Watching Xiaojiao eat, he asked, "Is it delicious?"

Little Jiaojiao: "Delicious~"

Wen Wan took the shrimp that Gu Ci had peeled and put it into Xiao Gu Xuan's bowl, saying, "Xuanxuan, eat too."

Gu Ci frowned, then peeled another shrimp and handed it to Wen Wan, thinking that it was his turn by now.

Without even glancing at him, Wen Wan stuffed the food into Xiao Jiaojiao's bowl again.

"Thank you, Mom, it's delicious!"

Gu Ci: "..."

Little Jiaojiao ate so much, and finally clutched her stomach to stop Wen Wan from putting more food on her plate, saying, "I'm full~ Jiaojiao is full~"

Wen Wan started feeding Xiao Gu Xuan again. Although Xiao Gu Xuan's attitude was so-so, he did not refuse the food that Wen Wan put on his plate.

After Xiao Gu Xuan finished eating, Wen Wan took Xiao Jiao Jiao to watch cartoons.

Gu Ci, who had been ignored at the dinner table, was speechless.

Suddenly I lost my appetite.

That night, Wen Wan insisted on sleeping with Xiao Jiaojiao, and Gu Ci couldn't stop her at all. He never expected that on his first day of marriage, he would be alone in an empty room.

—

Little Jiaojiao's bedroom.

Wen Wan is reading a fairy tale to her daughter.

Xiao Jiaojiao was holding a rabbit. Wen Wan recognized it; it was the plush toy she had bought for Xiao Jiaojiao years ago. She hadn't expected that it would still be kept after five years.

"Mom, will you be good to Dad?"

“My dad worked very hard taking care of my brother and me all by himself. I know he was the saddest when he lost my mom. They all lied to me and said that my mom went to a very far place. At first, I didn’t believe it and cried every day. But now that I’m older, I know that my mom will never come back. But I didn’t tell them that I know. It’s a secret.”

Wen Wan felt like crying again.

“Dad misses Mom a lot, but he doesn’t say it. I’ve seen him holding Mom’s things several times. He looks very sad and misses her a lot.”

Wen Wan's heart clenched.

"But Daddy is very happy now, and Jiaojiao is very happy too."

"Mom will love Dad well, and will also love Jiaojiao and Xuanxuan well."

Holding her little darling, watching her slowly fall asleep, she thought, "Mommy's scent is just like my mommy's~"

Wen Wan stared intently at Xiao Jiaojiao, tears streaming down her face.

What merit does she possess to have these two children?

Then, while crying, she eventually fell asleep.

She didn't even know when Gu Ci carried her away.

—

When she woke up, she found herself in Gu Ci's arms. Wen Wan's face instantly turned red. She tried to pull away, but the hand holding her waist was very tight. "Awake?"

Gu Ci, who had gotten up early, was someone Wen Wan had never seen before. His expression was languid, and his voice was lower than usual, "I... how did I get here?"

"I carried you here, do you expect your husband to be left alone on the very first day?"

"No...no, I just...I just miss Jiaojiao so much. I'm so happy that she likes me."

Gu Ci hugged Wen Wan tighter and touched her neck with his face. "I told you, they will really like you."

Wen Wan felt a little itchy and said, "Stop it."

Gu Ci hugged his wife and started bringing up old grievances, "Wanwan, you only served them food, I didn't get to eat a single shrimp, I'm angry."

Wen Yan: "..."

Then he kissed Wen Wan on the cheek, leaving a faint red mark. "Remember this from now on, I'm first, and those two brats are after me, or I'll punish you."

Why are you jealous of the child?

"You are my wife."

Wen Wan smiled, hugged Gu Ci tightly, and soothed the jealous man, "Alright, I'll think about it."
