It would have been better if Jiang Zhi hadn't brought it up, because Nangong Jin was instantly depressed.
“If you’re busy, don’t worry about my son. That little guy shouldn’t be spoiled.”
"Your son is lacking love, aren't you going to do anything about it?"
"I also crave love, but who cares about me?"
Jiang Zhi smiled and said, "You asked for it."
"Forget it, I'm not talking to you anymore. You've killed the conversation. It's boring."
"Han Chae-young is very popular now, and she has a lot of fans. Do you like her?"
"I feel okay. If I have the opportunity, I can try to develop the relationship. The key is that I am also a highly eligible bachelor."
"That's right, it's not uncommon for female celebrities to become stepmothers. Your son might not accept you!"
"Look, we've killed the conversation again."
Regardless of whether Nangong Jinxi liked it or not, Jiang Zhi said, "When it comes to mothers, the original is always the best!"
"I'm hanging up now, I'm going to eat. Goodbye!"
In an instant, the phone went silent.
Jiang Zhi looked up and saw that Nangong Jin had already hung up the phone.
He wasn't wrong; Rui Rui wanted her biological mother, not a stepmother.
Nangong Jin is so petty, getting angry over this, really!
...
Xiao Liu kept his promise.
That evening, he cooked for Cheng Ling again.
They also added seafood.
Cheng Ling watched Xiao Liu cook.
Although her family was not well-off, her mother never made her do housework.
She used to play badminton, so she rarely had time to learn how to cook.
Because his grades were only average and he couldn't stand out among the many top athletes in the country, he left the sports school early.
While cooking, Xiao Liu said, "I can tell you're on your way to stardom. I heard that Sister Li has negotiated a lot of contracts for you, and your runway appearance fee has even doubled."
Cheng Ling stated frankly, "I rarely inquire about contract matters, and I'm not good at dealing with people. When the company says there's a notice, I go to work."
Xiao Liu sighed softly, "Sometimes, it's good to be a little slow. You'll have fewer worries, you won't have to think so much, and you'll be more easily satisfied."
Do you think I'm a good person?
"You're doing pretty well. My young mistress is a good person; she won't sell you out. You've chosen the right person to work for. If you had joined another company, it's hard to say you wouldn't have been bullied."
"At first glance, I knew that Sister Chu was a good person."
"She has now given you all the opportunities to develop. You must work hard and not let her down. You must never be an ingrate."
“I know I’m not that kind of person.”
“My life was given to me by the Jiang family, and my wonderful life was also given to me by the Jiang family. I will never betray Master Zhi. I have already considered them as family, and I only think about them.”
Xiao Liu was an orphan, and Cheng Ling felt sorry for him.
Fortunately, there are still good people in this world who support and nurture him.
Xiao Liu is grateful and a good person!
"A person blessed with good fortune is unlikely to be too bad off. I believe you will be happy and joyful in the future!"
"Thank you for your kind words. Well then, I wish everyone happiness and joy! I've already cooked the dishes, so hurry up and wash the dishes and get ready to eat."
"Oh! Your stir-fried dishes smell so good!"
"There's only one dish: beef stir-fried with broccoli. You can eat the beef without worry. The rest of the dishes are seafood, so they won't make you gain weight!"
Cheng Ling smiled sweetly.
For some reason, a wave of sweet warmth washed over her.
Although Xiao Liu's tone was sometimes a bit harsh, and he sometimes complained that she was stupid, overall, he was a pretty good person.
Xiao Liu is very considerate; he's really a good person!
Cheng Ling was washing the dishes, and she was smiling foolishly.
Suddenly, she blushed a little, and Xiao Liu's handsome face appeared in her mind.
Last night, he tried his best to comfort her, soothe her emotions, and teach her how to relieve stress. She was really touched.
Later, somehow, they fell asleep.
When she woke up in the morning, Xiao Liu was actually in her bed...
Thinking about it, Cheng Ling's face turned slightly red, and she bit her lower lip.
******
When Nangong Jin wasn't home, Rui Rui would act up, and as long as it wasn't too outrageous, his grandparents would give in to him.
The little guy wanted to see his godmother, so Su Rui took him to the bamboo garden for a meal.
JOE's new product launch was a complete success, and the Jiang and Qiao families celebrated with a meal at Zhuyuan.
Everyone also took the opportunity to congratulate Jiang Yan on her full recovery; she can now walk freely.
However, everyone still advised her not to wear high heels and to be careful for a while.
Jiang Yan has kept everyone's concern in her heart, and she is much more cheerful now.
In her spare time, she also learned to cook, making her life very fulfilling.
...
Qiao Chu sat on the sofa eating fruit.
Rui Rui kept staring at her stomach.
It seemed quite novel.
"Godmother, do all babies come out from here?"
Qiao Chu smiled and nodded.
"Then... Rui Rui also came out of the belly?"
"Yes!"
As she spoke, Qiao Chu took Rui Rui's little hand and placed it on her bulging belly.
"Can you feel it? Your younger brother or sister is greeting you."
Jiang Zhi, who was watching from the side, was very nervous. He was worried that Rui Rui would hit her stomach or bump into something.
Jiang Zhi: "Rui Rui, be gentle. Your younger siblings are still small. You are the older brother, so you should take care of them."
Rui Rui: "I know I'm going to be a big brother. I just gently touched it. It moved! Godmother, it really moved! They must have heard us talking."
"My godmother's belly can move! It's so amazing!" Rui Rui was stunned for a moment, blinking her big eyes.
Qiao Chu smiled gently and coaxed, "Little brothers and sisters all like Brother Rui Rui very much. They heard you talking and they want to play with you too."
Rui Rui's round, bright eyes sparkled with liveliness as she tilted her head slightly and said, "I'll tell them stories. I can sing too. My family will also have younger brothers and sisters."
Jiang Zhi: "You can't bring my younger brother or sister home. If you want them, just tell your dad, and he'll let you have a younger brother or sister."
"Really? I'll tell Dad tonight."
"Yes, your dad can have a younger brother or sister for you."
Rui Rui nodded very seriously, as if he had already remembered that he would really tell his father that he wanted a younger brother or sister tonight.
The adults sitting in the living room eating fruit all smiled.
Qin Yun: "Master Zhi, if Young Master Jin knew you'd dug a huge pit for him, would he regret not bringing his son to the film set?"
Jiang Zhi: "It's okay, pressure makes you work harder! Auntie, don't you agree?"
Su Rui smiled and said, "If it works out, I'll give you a red envelope. We can't persuade him, so we hope you can. We're really worried about him!"
Jiang Zhi: "He'll come to terms with it. In the future, you and your uncle will be able to hold your grandson."
Su Rui: "Okay!"
The adults were talking, but Rui Rui wasn't paying attention. He was earnestly telling stories and singing songs to the baby in his godmother's belly.
He even danced.
