For several days in a row, when Zhu Qianying came home from get off work, there was a hot meal waiting for her. The father and son also became more and more in sync. When they saw her come back, one would take her bag and the other would bring her slippers. One would hand her a glass of water and the other would massage her waist and back.
Within a few days, Zhu Qianying began to have a misconception, vaguely feeling that she, Zizai, and Yan Shao should have always been a harmonious and loving family of three, just like they are now.
But in fact, that's not the case!
Every night before going to bed, she has to repeat this sentence to herself many times in order to stop herself from thinking about the distant future.
For a brief period, her future was completely filled with Yan Shao, and it took her a lot of effort to remove him from all her beautiful plans.
She doesn't plan to include this person in the future.
Her future is secured with her son, her mother, and her sister; that's enough.
She wasn't unaware of the situation; she was simply overly pessimistic about relationships.
After witnessing her mother's unwavering waiting for twenty years, she dared not have too many expectations for love.
She wasn't unaware that Young Master Yan was different from that scumbag Zhu Zhizhou.
Even so, in just over ten days, Yan Shao still made her experience a similar kind of pain and despair as her mother had experienced over the past twenty years.
She is doing very well now and has no need to take another risk and entrust her heart and future to the same person again.
However, she never revealed any of these thoughts to Vic Zhou.
She could tell that Zizai was happier and more joyful than ever these past few days, so she tried her best to cooperate with Yan Shao's acting and leave her son with a few wonderful and happy memories.
Anyway, once the holiday is over and we return to L City, everything will eventually return to normal.
...
After several busy days, Zhu Qianying finally finished dealing with most of her work. On her last day at work, Yan Shao brought Zizai to the jewelry store early in the afternoon to wait for her, because they had arranged to visit the Lei family together.
Mr. Lei and his wife's children are all studying in other places and are away from home for many years. Seeing their little devil, Zizai, the couple was overjoyed.
In just one night, the sweet-talking, handsome and cute little guy successfully captured the hearts of Mr. and Mrs. Lei. Regardless of whether Zhu Qianying and Yan Shao agreed or not, they secretly coaxed the little guy to recognize them as his godparents.
When Zhu Qianying noticed the expensive Hetian jade pendant around the little guy's neck, she realized that the little guy had recognized Mr. and Mrs. Lei as his godparents.
In front of Mr. and Mrs. Lei, Zhu Qianying declined for a long time, but the couple still refused to take back the jade pendant, which meant that they had already decided on this adopted grandson.
Zhu Qianying didn't know what to say on the spot, but after getting into the car, she couldn't help but start lecturing her son.
"Zizai, didn't Mommy tell you that you can't just accept gifts from other people?"
The little guy only knew that his models were expensive, but he didn't know that the jade pendant around his neck was enough for him to buy ten warship models.
"Grandpa said it's just an ordinary pendant, worthless, about the same as the tag his dog wears around its neck," the little guy said innocently.
Xingxing also had a tag around its neck, but it was just a regular dog tag that cost a few dozen yuan from a pet store. The little guy probably thought that Mr. Lei's dog's tag was about the same price.
If Zhu Qianying wasn't mistaken, the tag hanging around the neck of Mr. Lei's hunting dog should be an old and valuable bone carving. Indeed, it was about the same price as the jade pendant that Mr. Lei gave to the little guy!
Seeing that his mother looked deep in thought, the little one quickly added.
“Zizai remembers what Mommy said. Mommy said that you can’t take things from others for no reason. I gave the medal that my great-grandfather gave me to my godfather, and he likes it very much!”
Zhu Qianying had nothing more to say to Zizai, because each of Old Master Yan's military medals had a special meaning and historical significance. Even if their current price was not as high as this jade pendant, in the long run, their collection value would definitely be much greater than that of this jade pendant.
At first, Yan Shao only listened to what the mother and son were saying, but later he also started to speak up for his son.
“Ying’er, you can’t blame Zizai for this. The little guy is really destined to be with Brother Lei and Sister Lei. It’s no wonder he recognizes these godparents. As for this jade pendant, I’ll have plenty of opportunities to repay this favor in the future. Don’t worry about it.”
Zhu Qianying knew perfectly well that Mr. and Mrs. Lei's relationship was not unfounded. Just think, even someone like Young Master Yan, who could basically do whatever he wanted in China, had to show some respect to this couple when he came to the United States. This shows how powerful the couple was in the United States.
Previously, Zhu Qianying never imagined that she would one day have any connection with such a powerful figure who could practically control everything.
But now, because of Young Master Yan, his own son has become the godchild of this couple.
Not to mention that when she was in the capital, those high-ranking officials and their wives whom she had only seen on television actually addressed her respectfully as "Young Madam Yan," and even called Zizai "Little Prince" directly...
At the time, Zhu Qianying was also extremely shocked, and her reaction should have been even greater than it is now. However, the Yan family seemed to be used to that kind of address, and no one raised any objection.
Afterwards, Zhu Qianying learned from Yan Shao that Yan Shao had been called "Crown Prince" since he was a child!
No wonder Young Master Yan always acts arrogant and haughty towards everyone. He was treated like a young master by a group of powerful people since he was a child. How could he not be arrogant and disdainful of others?
Fortunately, although her mentally challenged son inherited his father's looks and intelligence, he is more like her in terms of his temperament and way of dealing with people.
After saying goodbye to Mr. Lei, it was already past ten o'clock. Fearing that the mother and son would get tired, Yan Shao had booked a hotel nearby early in the morning. After leaving Mr. Lei's house, the driver took the three of them directly back to the hotel to rest.
After returning to the hotel, the three of them went to their respective rooms to rest.
Zizai has been sleeping with his father for the past few days. Yan Shao told him to take a shower first, and then he would take a shower himself.
The little guy, who usually falls asleep by this time, is now lying on the bed, propping his chin up and staring blankly.
Seeing Yan Shao come out, before Yan Shao could ask, she asked first, "Daddy, did Zizai make Mommy unhappy?"
The little guy is very perceptive. When Zhu Qianying was teaching him, he instinctively felt that he had done something wrong.
Yan Shao climbed onto the bed, sat cross-legged beside him, and patted his head to coax him.
"Zizai didn't do anything wrong, but in the future, it's best to ask Daddy and Mommy's opinion first, okay?"
