"Nothing happened?"
He Lingchuan's eyes widened: "We were so harmonious yesterday, how can you expect me to pretend nothing happened?"
He originally intended to have a proper talk with Shen Yanxi after waking up, but he didn't expect her to say such irresponsible things.
"So what do you want me to do? Take responsibility for you? Or get back together with you?"
Shen Yanxi looked at the red mark on her neck and subconsciously blamed him: "Who told you to leave a mark on me? I've told you so many times to control yourself. What if someone else sees it?"
"Who are you worried about seeing this?"
He Lingchuan's tone suddenly turned cold. Sure enough, he shouldn't have held onto even a sliver of hope.
"Of course, they are insignificant people."
"Who's insignificant? Zhou Mingyan?"
These three words were like a sore spot for Shen Yanxi, and his face immediately darkened: "Don't talk nonsense."
"So what are you going to do now?"
If he remembered correctly, Shen Yanxi should not have any work today.
Shen Yanxi paused in buttoning her clothes, her gaze lingering on He Lingchuan's face for a moment: "It doesn't matter if I tell you, I promised the children I'd take them to the amusement park today."
"Just you?"
How am I supposed to take care of two children by myself?
There's no need to ask any more questions now. He Lingchuan gave a self-deprecating laugh: "So, from beginning to end, I've been a clown."
He smiled coldly and generously wished Shen Yanxi well: "Have fun."
He pushed open the door to leave, but Shen Yanxi called out to him, "About yesterday..."
“I will act as if nothing happened. No one will know that the two of us slept together, especially Zhou Mingyan.”
He Lingchuan turned to look at her: "Are you satisfied now?"
He was making a promise to himself, but Shen Yanxi felt somewhat uncomfortable.
She paused for a moment: "You'd better keep your word."
He Lingchuan snorted coldly before pushing the door open. He was as disappointed as Shen Yanxi was afraid that he would tell others about this.
They spent the whole day at the amusement park, and it was already late at night when Shen Yanxi and the others returned.
The children, each more excited than the last, rushed into the villa one after another.
Looking at the smiles on their faces, He Lingchuan felt a pang of unease.
"I clearly have more toys than you."
"So what? Do you have anything good to eat? I won't give you any more food in a little while."
"If you don't want to eat, then don't eat."
The two children were arguing and couldn't stop. He Lingchuan walked over and saw the junk food and a bunch of plastic toys in their hands. His smile immediately fell.
"Where did you buy this? Who bought it for you?"
The two children were bewildered, clutching their toys and snacks tightly as if afraid he would snatch them away.
“This was bought for us by Mr. Zhou, so don’t even think about taking our things away.”
"That's right, you never let us eat or play, how can you be so mean? Zhou's father is the best."
"Zhou's father? If he really cares about you, he should find out why you can't eat these snacks."
He didn't want the children to be jealous, and he wanted to buy them some good food, but the problem was that he couldn't eat it.
Nan Chen, in particular, was hospitalized due to a weakened immune system caused by eating unclean food, which terrified him.
From then on, he never took the children out to eat again.
He Lingchuan had reached his limit. He knew he couldn't take it by force, so he could only scare them: "Throw these things away, do you hear me?"
"No, why should we listen to you?"
"It's not your money, why should we throw it away?"
The children were making a ruckus, and Beichen burst into tears.
"I don't want you, you bad guy, you're no good at all. Daddy Zhou is much better. I want Daddy Zhou, I want Daddy Zhou."
Beichen clutched the toys and snacks tightly, her eyes red-rimmed.
"I don't want you, I just want Daddy Zhou."
He Lingchuan kept a cold face, unwilling to argue with them.
It's one thing for children to be ignorant, but how can adults be so ignorant?
How could Shen Yanxi let Zhou Mingyan buy these things for the children?
"Give it to me. I said you can't eat it, and that means you can't eat it."
"No, you bad guy, you can't take away the things that Father Zhou gave us."
Bei Chen and Nan Chen tightly guarded the junk food behind them, glaring fiercely at He Lingchuan as if they were about to pounce on him and fight him to the death at any moment.
"Butler, take the two young masters back to their rooms."
He didn't want to take things from the children in front of them, so he asked the housekeeper to take the children away first.
The butler hesitated, standing to the side, "This...this isn't good, what if Madam finds out..."
He Lingchuan looked at the person at the door who hadn't come in yet, wondering what she was saying to Zhou Mingyan and why she was so reluctant to come in.
Seeing that the housekeeper wouldn't do anything, He Lingchuan took matters into his own hands.
He held the child in one arm, and with his free hand, he snatched all their toys and snacks.
"Throw it out."
"But……"
The butler looked helpless. In the end, Shen Yanxi was the one who called the shots in this house, and he just took it away like that.
"Just take it when I tell you to, why are you making so many questions?"
Under He Lingchuan's coercion and enticement, he had no choice but to throw everything out.
"Give it back, give it back, you bastard, I hate you, I hate you, get out of my home."
"We don't welcome you, you scoundrel. Let me go."
The children were making a racket, and Beichen was crying so hard she could barely breathe.
He Lingchuan had just put the two children down when he heard a questioning voice behind him: "What are you doing?"
"Mom, Mom, he threw away everything that Dad Zhou bought for us."
"Mom, please kick him out! We don't want him, we want Dad Zhou."
The children all ran to Shen Yanxi's side, grabbing her skirt and accusing He Lingchuan of his crimes.
They were crying so hard they could barely breathe; they looked so pitiful.
Shen Yanxi looked at the mess on the floor, with snacks that had fallen off during their fight.
She frowned, her eyes full of accusation as she looked at He Lingchuan: "What exactly do you want? Don't you think our family is chaotic enough already?"
"They can't eat snacks."
“That was bought for us by Mr. Zhou. He just didn’t want us to eat the things that Mr. Zhou bought.”
Nan Chen added fuel to the fire, and although He Lingchuan didn't mean it that way, he made it sound so convincing that it was as if he really was that similar.
"Nan Chen, don't talk nonsense. I'm doing this for your own good."
He Lingchuan looked up at Shen Yanxi: "I threw away their toys because..."
"He Lingchuan, you're an adult, how can you still get jealous so easily?"
Shen Yanxi attributed his actions to jealousy of her relationship with Zhou Mingyan.
"I'm jealous? It's Zhou Mingyan who's trying to harm them."
His words were overheard by Zhou Mingyan, who had just entered. He looked aggrieved and said, "Mr. He, you've misunderstood me."
