Shi Xi: ...

Jia Mu tightened his grip on Shi Xi's clothes and asked warily, "You still haven't told me who this man is?"

"This is my brother, not my boyfriend." Shi Xi thought that this kid was quite shrewd despite his young age.

"Hello, Uncle." Jia Mu lowered his guard when he heard that Shi Xu was Shi Xi's relative.

Shi Xi muttered under her breath, "You call my mom 'Auntie' and my brother 'Uncle,' your family hierarchy is really messed up."

"Mom, what did you say?" Jiamu asked Shixi, looking up at her.

"I said if you call me 'Mom' again, I'll throw you out!" Shi Xi grabbed Jia Mu by the back of her collar and dragged her onto the sofa. "Call me 'Sister,' not 'Mom'!"

Jiamu pouted, "But if you don't become my mother, then I won't have a mother anymore."

After going around in circles, we've returned to where we started.

The questioner asked was, "Who is his mother?"

"I don't know, he's pretty fierce." Shi Xi was already tired and said, "Let's eat and rest first, and we'll talk to his mother tomorrow."

This is so damn annoying.

Shi's mother loved and doted on the child very much, so she found some of her son's old clothes and gave them to Jiamu to change.

Jiamu adapted to the new environment quickly and soon figured out the relationship. "Thank you, Grandma."

"Oh my, our Jiamu is such a handsome young man. I wish I had a grandson like him." As she spoke, Shi's mother looked at Shi Xu thoughtfully.

Timeline: "I still have work to finish."

Of the Thirty-Six Stratagems, running away is the best.

Thinking of the mischievous child's deeds, Shi Xi thought to herself that if she really had a grandson like that, she would definitely be annoyed to death.

Just as Shi Xi was about to fall asleep, there was a knock on the door.

The knocking came from below the door, a height that could only be reached by a small child or someone using their knee to knock.

Shi Xi took off her blindfold. "Come in."

Jiamu came in wearing her pajamas. "Mom, I'm scared to sleep alone."

“First, I’m not your mother.” Shi Xi sat up helplessly. “Second, you’re a little man now, what’s there to be afraid of?”

They even dared to spray her with water guns.

Now you're actually afraid to sleep alone?

Shi Xi didn't believe it.

Jiamu stood helplessly by Shixi's bedside.

Shi Xi wanted to kick Jia Mu out, but looking at the handsome young man's wet eyes, she couldn't bear to.

She is too kind.

Shi Xi stood up. "Let's go to your room. I'll tell you a bedtime story."

Upon arriving at the guest room, Jiamu climbed onto the bed, pulled back the covers, and said, "Mom, come up here too."

"I don't sleep with men," Shi Xi politely declined, then found a fairy tale on her phone, "Once upon a time, there was a Cinderella..."

"I want to hear the story of the Little Mermaid," Jia Mu said, looking at Shi Xi.

Shi Xi thought to herself that this brat was really troublesome, and went back to search for the fairy tale of the Little Mermaid.

Fearing the children would cry, Shi Xi changed the ending.

"...The little mermaid turned into an angel and can now play happily in the clouds forever."

Jiamu asked in confusion, "Didn't the little mermaid die and turn into foam?"

Shi Xi: &…! @#￥#%

Why should we care about this brat's feelings?!

"No, the little mermaid turned into an angel." Shi Xi didn't want to go along with the brat and said, "The fairy tale is over, go to sleep."

Jiamu pulled the blanket up to her nose, leaving only her pitiful, doe-like eyes showing.

Shi Xi said helplessly, "Then I'll sing you a lullaby, okay?"

"Mommy, can you sleep with me?" Jiamu asked boldly.

Shi Xi: ...

Three minutes later, Shi Xi knocked on the door of Shi Xu.

Shi Xi picked up Jia Mu and handed him to Shi Xu, saying, "He's yours now. He can't sleep alone."
