Chapter 385
Leng Zexi went on to comfort her, "Actually, everyone says you're a good mother, and the children like you very much."
Xia Ruoan recalled those warm pasts and said to him with a smile: "Do you remember? When they were little, whenever they made me laugh, you would give them candies as rewards."
"Over time, this has created an illusion in them - as long as they can make me happy, they can get sweet candy from you."
"So on the surface they seem to be closer to me, but in fact the person they rely on the most is always you."
Thinking of these interesting scenes, Xia Ruoan couldn't help but smile even more brightly.
Then he continued with emotion: "When other children encounter problems, they often call for 'Mom' first; but our three little ones are different. No matter big or small, the first person they look for is always you."
Xia Ruoan saw all his efforts.
"I can't help it, dear. You belong to me completely. Even I am too distressed to order you around. How can those three brats possibly have the qualifications?"
Leng Zexi stared at Xia Ruoan with burning eyes and spoke in a firm and domineering tone.
Then, he paused for a moment, as if he was organizing his thoughts, and then continued to speak frankly: "In fact, the reason why I originally expected you to give birth to those little guys was simply because I wanted to use this opportunity to keep you firmly by my side."
Leng Zexi has always been like this. In front of Xia Ruoan, he has never tried to hide the strong and almost crazy desire to possess her deep in his heart.
However, this time when he said these words so bluntly, Xia Ruoan was still caught off guard.
In fact, Xia Ruoan was not unaware of it all along.
She was very clear about Leng Zexi's unique feelings and possessiveness towards her, but as long as he didn't say it out loud, she chose to play deaf and dumb, pretending that she knew nothing, and obeyed and accommodated him as much as possible.
After all, in this relationship, she also deeply loves the man in front of her.
Leng Zexi carefully picked up Xia Ruoan and walked out of the bathroom, his movements so gentle as if she was a fragile treasure.
He carefully helped her change into clean and comfortable clothes, making sure every detail was taken care of before turning and walking towards the room next door where the children were.
When he pushed open the door, he saw three little guys sitting in a circle on the ground, with their heads together, fiddling with something.
Leng Zexi walked forward curiously and asked softly, "You little brats, why are you still not sleeping so late? What are you doing?"
Hearing the voice, Ningning raised her head first. Seeing that it was her father, she immediately stood up and answered obediently, "Dad, we are counting money."
As he spoke, he pointed to the pile of money in front of him.
Leng Zexi looked in the direction of her finger and couldn't help but laugh.
It turned out that these little guys took out all the pocket money they had saved up and piled it together, which looked quite spectacular.
He squatted down with interest, looked at the money carefully, then looked up and asked, "Why are you counting this money?"
At this time, Sui Sui also turned around and looked at Leng Zexi, and explained, "Dad, the gifts we chose are not cheap, but after choosing for a long time, I found that the one I liked is a bit expensive. Nian Nian doesn't have enough money, so I am planning to borrow some from Ning Ning."
After hearing Sui Sui's words, Leng Zexi smiled slightly, reached out and touched Sui Sui's little head, and said gently: "No, babies. You don't have to pay this time, Dad will pay for you, you can keep this money for your own use."
After saying this, he sat down on the bed and looked at the three children in front of him with loving eyes.
When Sui Sui heard this, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, with an expression of disbelief on his face, and muttered to himself: Did the sun rise from the west today?
This is the first time that my father, who has always been stingy, actually offered to help pay the bill!
Niannian was so shocked that he opened his mouth wide and stammered, "The stingy guy actually plucked his feathers?"
Leng Zexi was amused by Nian Nian's innocent words. He reached out and gently pinched Nian Nian's chubby cheeks, pretending to be angry and asked back: "Stinky boy, who do you say is a stingy person? When has your father ever treated you badly? Did he give you less food or clothes?"
"You have provided us with food and clothing, but don't you spend all your money on Mom? How could you be willing to give it to us? Dad, you have no good intentions when you pay New Year's greetings to chickens. Do you have something for us to do?"
"Or are you going to leave us at grandpa and grandma's house? I don't want to go! I'd rather give you all my money!"
Sui Sui pouted as he quickly pushed the money in front of him away and stretched out his arm to hand it to the person opposite him.
When Nian Nian and Ning Ning heard this, they looked at each other and followed Sui Sui without hesitation, hurriedly moving the change in front of them to the front.
"We want to stay at home and take care of mom!" the three children shouted almost at the same time, their voices clear and loud, as if they were afraid that the other party couldn't hear them.
Leng Zexi looked at the three childish yet determined little faces in front of him, and a warm feeling welled up in his heart.
He smiled and explained to the children: "Where do you want to go, little brats? I don't plan to send you to your grandparents' house."
"This money is a reward for cleaning the floor so well today!"
After he finished speaking, he nodded with satisfaction, a hint of appreciation in his eyes: "You really did a great job this time, and you also knew how to be considerate of your mother and didn't blame her for accidentally breaking something."
Niannian blinked her big eyes and asked in confusion, "Dad, why do you blame Mom? Mom didn't break things on purpose. Normally, even if we accidentally broke something, Mom would never get angry with us."
Suisui looked at Leng Zexi seriously, holding her hands tightly, and said seriously: "Dad, we don't take care of mom for rewards, this is what we should do."
"Then you can take the initiative to wipe the floor, which is really an act worthy of praise and commendation!"
Leng Zexi looked at them with a smile on his face, his eyes full of relief and pride, and then he slowly said: "You have really grown up a lot now, and you have begun to care about others. As a father, I am really proud of you."
After that, Leng Zexi patted their shoulders gently, and then gently instructed: "Okay, kids, put all this money away. It's getting late, hurry up and wash up and go to bed."
As soon as he finished speaking, he stretched out his hands and gently rubbed the two children's heads.
At this moment, Ning Ning suddenly reached out and grabbed the corner of Leng Zexi's clothes as he was about to turn around and leave, and said coquettishly: "Dad, can we sleep with Mom tonight?"
After saying that, his big watery eyes looked at Leng Zexi expectantly, his face full of pleading.
When Sui Sui and Niannian heard Ning Ning say this, they hurried over and said in unison, "Dad, we also want to sleep with Mom, just for one night, okay?"
The two of them stared at Leng Zexi with expectant eyes.
Leng Zexi quietly gazed into the three children's eyes full of longing, and a tender feeling arose in his heart.
After hesitating for a moment, he finally nodded and replied softly, "Okay, since you guys want to, go pack your things and go to mom's room."
After getting their father's consent, the three little ones cheered with excitement and even jumped up and down on the bed with joy.
As a result, the money that was placed on the bed was scattered all over the floor.
Seeing this, Leng Zexi could only shake his head helplessly, and sighed in his heart: Children are like this, such a simple thing can make them so happy, they are so easily satisfied.
Xia Ruoan was quite surprised and surprised that Leng Zexi was able to let the children come over.
After all, according to Leng Zexi's usual style of doing things, this situation is very rare.
Shortly after the children turned 3, Leng Zexi decided to arrange for them to live in the bedroom next door that was specially prepared for children.
Although there were three children in the same room, fortunately they had each other as company, so they did not feel scared or uneasy.
Xia Ruoan couldn't completely let go of his worry.
For a whole week, she stayed up late every night, keeping an eye on the children's every move, fearing that they would feel uncomfortable or unfamiliar with the change of environment.
Only after she confirmed that the children were able to sleep peacefully and have a normal schedule did she finally feel relieved and breathe a sigh of relief.
Leng Zexi took a shower and walked out of the bathroom as usual.
At this time, the three children had already fallen into a sweet dream, and the room was quiet and peaceful.
The sudden slight noise caught Xia Ruoan's attention. She turned around and saw Leng Zexi walking towards the bed.
"Why did you agree to let them come and sleep together this time? This is not like your style." Xia Ruoan couldn't help but ask curiously.
Facing his wife's question, Leng Zexi smiled gently, looked at the three cute faces sleeping softly, and then slowly said: "Ningning brought it up first, and when I saw his little face that looked so much like yours, I really couldn't bear to refuse."
"Besides, it's okay to indulge children's little wishes once in a while."
Having said that, Leng Zexi unconsciously reached out and touched Ningning's hair, his eyes full of doting.
Xia Ruoan was shocked, thinking that the incident of being hit must have caused a great psychological impact on the young Ningning.
Thinking of this, Xia Ruoan's eyes couldn't help but redden, and she felt sorry for the frightened Ningning.
