"Auntie~"

As soon as the sweet, childlike voice came out, Gu Xuexi, who was wearing a dark green dress and a matching scarf on the other side of the sofa, laughed.

Heavens have mercy, Gu Xuexi doesn't even know how to describe her younger brother Gu Tingxiao anymore.

Raising such a cute and adorable daughter, how can you feel at ease letting her stay home alone? No, not only leave her home alone, but also let Xiao Anman stay overnight at other people's houses.

There was no mother in this family, and the father was a "carefree" person. After learning this, Gu Xuexi became a little restless.

That's why she appeared at the Gu family home so early in the morning.

"An'an, my darling, do you miss your auntie?"

Dressed appropriately and elegantly, Gu Xuexi acted in front of Xiao Anman in a way that was nothing like her cold demeanor outside; on the contrary, she was particularly approachable.

I miss my aunt!

Clutching the snowball-shaped bun in her arms, Xiao An skipped happily towards Gu Xuexi.

They're so cute! You like them even more after just one meeting.

Hugging her little one, Gu Xuexi smiled and asked, "Baby, where did you go to play?"

"I went to Liang Jingjing's house."

It was the first time that Xiao Anman had been invited to his friend's house to play, and he found it all very novel.

"Is she a classmate from kindergarten?"

Yes, the little dumpling in Xiao Anman's arms probably felt that its current position made it look unimpressive, so it struggled a few times in Xiao Anman's arms and jumped out.

Hmph, little human, don't think you can fool it like that.

I've written down all the times you stayed out all night in my little notebook, okay?

Oh, steamed buns!

Little Anman reached out and stroked Grandpa Doubao's snow-white fur, coaxing him, "How about I give you some milk? And some meat too~"

Grandpa Doubao's meals are actually quite plentiful, with all sorts of snacks and cookies.

Even if Xiao Anman doesn't come back, someone will still bring it food on time.

But Grandpa Doubao only has this one cat owner in mind. Although both cats eat, the feeling is very different.

Grandpa Doubao planned to resist the sugar-coated bullets for a while, insisting that his principles should not be shaken.

The pet owner must realize their mistake; therefore, we cannot give in.

Huh, even adding meat to the buns doesn't seem to get a response from them?

Xiao An gently stroked Grandpa Doubao's fur, and Grandpa Doubao didn't seem particularly resistant to it.

Anyway, there are opportunities, but it seems we can't give them away too quickly.

This proud little dog would probably make a strong impression wherever it goes, especially since it looks so chubby.

After observing her child and pet's interaction from an elder's perspective for a while, Gu Xuexi remembered that she had other plans for the day.

However, since she had already come to the Gu family, she naturally did not want to repeat the mistake of leaving Xiao Anman alone at home.

"An'an, do you want to go out with your aunt today?"

Can I go out and play with my aunt again?

The big box in the room is almost full of sparkly items.

But she can go again if she wants.

"You should be grateful that you've received a notification, don't you understand?"

"Filming? Don't you know your own limitations?"

"People like you are a dime a dozen outside, what gives you the right to make demands?"

The cold contract document was thrown at Shen Sui's face, and everyone in the office who witnessed this scene fell silent.

"With so much debt you owe, do you expect others to pay it off for you if you don't work hard yourself?"

"You have to go to this variety show whether you like it or not. I'm not discussing it with you, I'm informing you, do you understand?"
