Jiang Tong had just finished washing up when she heard the noise. She came out of the bathroom, her hair still steaming, and found that Zhou Yuansheng had actually arrived at this hour.
She asked in surprise, "How did you manage to come back so quickly?"
Jiang Tong was wearing a plaid pajama set, a very ascetic outfit, but it was inexplicably eye-catching.
Zhou Yuansheng's eyes darkened slightly. He smiled and said, "Come be the director."
right.
The living room is long.
Whenever he came to stay overnight, he could only sleep in the living room.
He has never been inside Jiang Tong's bedroom.
But this little home is so comfortable to live in.
Zhou Jiaqi, that little brat, didn't want to leave, and Zhou Yuansheng, that grown man, didn't want to go back to that large apartment of several hundred square meters either, so he stayed at Jiang Tong's place every day.
They'd rather sleep in the living room.
Jiang Tong chuckled at his teasing. Okay, he sounded pitiful, but as she smiled, she suddenly met his darkening gaze, and a sense of unease crept up her spine. She knew she absolutely couldn't do anything reckless tonight.
She has to go to work tomorrow.
"Sure, go ahead and sleep. I didn't say you couldn't sleep. As long as Mr. Zhou doesn't mind."
Jiang Tong would occasionally jokingly call him Mr. Zhou, which would make Zhou Yuansheng's eyes gleam with desire. He really acted like a respectable person in front of the children, but who knew that he was even more childish and clingy than the children in private?
She couldn't help but chuckle when she thought about it.
Zhou Yuansheng was helpless; she was taking advantage of the fact that the children were all around, and he couldn't do anything about it.
The children had no idea about the shameless eye contact between the two adults. They circled around Zhou Yuansheng and then quickly closed the door behind them.
Because they all noticed the gifts Zhou Yuansheng was carrying.
Zhou Jiaqi was the most mischievous. He yelled and tugged at the gift bag his dad was carrying, "Daddy! Daddy! What did you bring me?"
Whenever Zhou Yuansheng went on a business trip, he would buy his son some small gifts. But starting this time, he needed to buy three more gifts.
But I still had a pretty good time buying it.
"I bought the gashapon toys you like. Aren't you still missing two rare edition figures? Go open them yourself. I hope my luck will be good and I can get the ones you like from these I picked."
Zhou Yuansheng handed one of the paper bags to his son, and patted his head as he did so. With Hanhan and Peipei keeping him company lately, the little rascal doesn't cling to him anymore.
The father felt a little melancholy.
Zhou Jiaqi cheered and excitedly kissed his dad's hand twice, then said with a grin, "Thank you, Daddy! I love you the most, Daddy! If you get the same one, I can give it to Hanhan and Peipei!"
Zhou Yuansheng frowned and scolded, "Nonsense, Daddy hasn't washed his hands yet since he got back."
After reprimanding her, he remembered how he had held Jiang Tong's wrist captive the night before, and he had gently kissed her wrist...
Cough cough.
Zhou Yuansheng quickly straightened his face, suppressing the urge to smile, otherwise he was afraid his image as a strict father would crumble.
When Zhou Jiaqi got his beloved toy, he didn't care about his dad's reaction. The little rascal was so happy that he was like a little fool. He had already taken his gift to the carpet and was calling Hanhan and Peipei to come over and open it together.
Hanhan was just about to leave.
Zhou Yuansheng called out to her, "Hanhan, this is for you, and this is for Peipei too. This is the first time I've given you two formal gifts. I hope you like them."
Peipei's face was filled with surprise and joy. She excitedly asked, "Uncle Zhou, do I have one too?"
Hanhan was also a little surprised...
Zhou Yuansheng handed the two of them two gift bags, which contained the same things as Jiaqi's: five or six gashapon capsules and a few local specialty trinkets.
Hanhan and Peipei were very happy and thanked each other. Then they went to play with Zhou Jiaqi, and the three children excitedly chattered and shared their things.
Hanhan even brought out the rare model that Zhou Jiaqi had always wanted, which made him extremely excited.
"Hanhan, you're amazing! You're such a lucky baby."
Hanhan looked at the little doll in her hand, then suddenly smiled sweetly and said, "Then I'll give it to you. I don't have a collecting habit. I like all of these, and it doesn't matter if there are duplicates."
Zhou Jiaqi was so moved that he hugged Hanhan tightly, sobbing and whimpering.
"Ugh, Zhou Jiaqi, you're so clingy!" Hanhan looked disgusted, but couldn't help but smile. This was the first gift her "father" had brought her on his business trip, and she was very happy.
Her father never cared about her before, and when he went on business trips, he rarely brought back gifts for the two sisters. Occasionally, he would remember to buy gifts for Peipei.
Hanhan is always the one who gets overlooked.
Because her grandparents and father all said she was not likable, that she didn't know how to smile or act cute.
But now she has a new daddy who is especially attentive to her. While buying gifts for Zhou Jiaqi, he even brought her a business trip gift as well.
This made Hanhan feel cared for, so she was very happy.
Seeing Hanhan's happy smile and how intimately she was with Zhou Jiaqi, Peipei suddenly became unhappy and stepped forward to separate them. "What are you doing! Jiaqi, you're so annoying! Why are you trying to take my sister away from me!"
Zhou Jiaqi made a face at Peipei, "Hehe, Hanhan is my best friend! She loves Aunt Jiang the most, and I'm the second most! And I'm the older brother! Not the younger brother!"
Peipei was jealous and upset. She couldn't stand that Hanhan and Zhou Jiaqi had a better relationship than she did. She immediately pouted and wanted to cry, but she remembered what her teacher had taught her and what her mother usually taught her, so she held back her fragile heart.
She snorted and said, "Zhou Jiaqi, you're a crybaby, even more of a crybaby than me! You're the younger brother, not the older brother!"
Zhou Jiaqi was displeased. He wanted to defend his position as the eldest brother, so he angrily said, "I am the older brother! I am the older brother! I am the older brother!"
Peipei retorted maliciously with a laugh, "You're the younger brother, you're the younger brother, you're the younger brother!"
Finally, Hanhan said fiercely with a blank expression, "If you two argue again, I'll throw you out!"
When Hanhan has a cold expression, she looks a lot like Jiang Tong, almost like a carbon copy of her. However, because she is still young and has been eating and playing well lately, her face is chubby, so she has no imposing presence at all and looks particularly funny.
However, Zhou Jiaqi and Peipei were very considerate and immediately shut up.
After washing his hands, Zhou Yuansheng glanced at the three kids in the living room. Hanhan was the eldest sister, right? Look at the silly antics of Zhou Jiaqi and Peipei.
He couldn't help but laugh.
“Zhou Jiaqi, you mustn’t be rude. You need to get along well with your younger sisters, and Peipei too. Jiaqi is older than you, he’s the older brother, not the younger brother.”
Peipei scoffed and muttered, "So what if she's a few months older than me?"
Hanhan gave her younger sister a cool look, and Peipei immediately sat up straight like a kitten, wagging her tail at her older sister.
Now they're incredibly well-behaved.
It's true that everything has its counter.
Zhou Yuansheng smiled and shook his head. He let the three children play in the living room while he picked up the gift he had brought for Jiang Tong and went to the balcony.
I went to look for her.
