The moment she felt the murderous intent, Jiang Zhining looked in the direction and saw a pair of vicious eyes in the dark environment.
Seeing those eyes filled with defensiveness and viciousness, Jiang Zhining's heart skipped a beat.
Because the owner of those eyes was just a child of about ten years old.
Seeing that Song Yuzhou was also looking at him, the murderous look in Song Chen's eyes subsided.
But even so, Jiang Zhining could still feel the hostility from him.
"Song Chen, come here." Song Yuzhou said in a low voice.
Song Chen didn't say anything, but just walked towards them holding the little girl in his arms.
As they got closer, Jiang Zhining finally saw their faces clearly.
Song Chen walked in front, followed by a boy about five or six years old. The boy had big eyes, and he looked at Jiang Zhining cautiously.
In Song Chen's arms, he was holding a little girl about two years old. She was wearing a dirty short-sleeved shirt and pants, her hair was messy, and her doe-like eyes seemed to be frightened, not daring to look at Jiang Zhining.
The moment she saw the child, Jiang Zhining vaguely felt that being a stepmother would be difficult.
Song Yuzhou took the girl from Song Chen's arms, and then simply said: "From today on, she is your mother, and we are a family."
Hearing this, Song Chen said, "Father, I don't need mother. I can take good care of Xiaoye and Xixi."
"I can also take good care of my sister." Song Ye said in a low voice.
Seeing this, Jiang Zhining squatted slightly on her knees, supported her hands on her knees, and raised what she thought was the friendliest smile: "Although you can take good care of your sister, she is a girl, so it is not convenient after all. Isn't it better to have me take care of her?"
Song Chen said nothing, just staring at her. His eyes seemed to say: She will hurt them.
"Besides, do you want your father to be alone, without even a woman to talk to?" Jiang Zhining continued, "It's late at night, and the quilt is cold."
Song Yuzhou coughed lightly with an embarrassed look. He didn't expect her to say such words to the child.
"Be serious." Song Yuzhou was embarrassed.
Jiang Zhining blinked innocently: "What's wrong with that?"
Hearing this, Song Chen turned his head away. He had naturally heard what others said about them in private.
They said that Song Yuzhou would never be able to find a wife because of the three of them. They also said that they were the ones who harmed Song Yuzhou.
Seeing that he had softened a bit, Jiang Zhining did not continue to force him. After all, pushing too hard might not be a good thing.
Then, she turned her attention to the girl. As a female, she decided to target the girl first.
Jiang Zhining gently pinched her cheek, tilted her head, and said softly, "Your name is Xixi, right? Can I hug you?"
Xixi looked at her hesitantly, wanting to reach out but being afraid.
Suddenly remembering something, Jiang Zhining took out a candy from her bag: "Do you want to eat it? If you want to eat candy, you have to give me a hug."
"Yes!" Xixi's eyes lit up when she saw the candy, and she immediately reached out to Jiang Zhining.
Jiang Zhining smiled and hugged her, placing the candy in her palm: "Come, let daddy peel it."
Xixi, who got the candy, shouted happily, "Daddy, peel it."
Song Yuzhou took it, helped her peel it, and put the candy to her mouth.
Xixi ate the candy and clapped her hands excitedly: "Delicious, candy is delicious."
Seeing Jiang Zhining using candy to bribe Xixi, Song Chen felt even more that Jiang Zhining was scheming.
Seeing Song Ye's eager eyes, Jiang Zhining took out a few more candies and handed them to him.
Song Ye was about to take it when he looked at Song Chen for help.
"Don't worry, I won't be so stupid as to harm you." Jiang Zhining said.
Song Chen felt that she was right. Even if she was harmful, she would not come openly, just like those people.
Song Chen was silent for two seconds before he took the candy and handed it to Song Ye.
Song Ye ate the candy with a gleam in his eyes: "It's delicious, brother, the candy is really sweet."
Jiang Zhining was surprised to see that they looked like they had never eaten candy before.
Although candies are not cheap these days, considering Song Yuzhou's income, it should be no problem for him to buy a little to satisfy his hunger.
Song Yuzhou should be treating the children well, but in the meantime...
Jiang Zhining looked at them, then said to Song Yuzhou, "Xixi's clothes are a little dirty, I'll take her to take a shower first. Will you do some ideological work on them?"
"good."
Jiang Zhining looked at the little girl in her arms and stroked her head lovingly: "Xixi, do you want to take a nice bath and be a little princess?"
Hearing the little princess, Xixi asked nervously, "Xixi, is it okay?"
"Of course." Jiang Zhining said with a smile, and prepared to carry her into the house.
Song Yuzhou helped her get some hot water and brought it into the house, and then he did some psychological work with the two children.
In the room, Jiang Zhining put Xixi into the wooden tub and helped her take a bath.
Xixi looked at the gentle woman in front of her, her eyes flashing with innocence and curiosity.
"Xixi, you are so good. You can play with bubbles while taking a bath." Jiang Zhining said with a chuckle.
"Bubble?" Xixi looked curious.
Jiang Zhining applied soap on her body and then rubbed it with water to make bubbles.
Xixi looked at the bubbles and giggled excitedly: "Bubbles, bubbles."
While she was playing, Jiang Zhining carefully washed her body. Perhaps because she hadn't washed it vigorously enough before, there was dirt on her body, especially behind her ears.
Just as Jiang Zhining was concentrating on helping Xixi take a bath, she suddenly felt a soft touch on her cheek.
Jiang Zhining turned her head in surprise and saw Xixi smiling sweetly. At that moment, Jiang Zhining's heart melted.
When Jiang Zhining came out of the house again carrying Xixi, Song Chen felt that his sister seemed like a different person.
Xixi, who had just finished taking a bath, had a rosy face and was wearing the little skirt that Song Yuzhou had bought for her before.
The originally messy hair was tied into two buns, which made her look cute and adorable.
"Brother." Xixi hugged Jiang Zhining's neck and called sweetly to Song Chen.
Song Chen walked forward and hugged the fragrant Xixi.
"Remember what I said, we will be a family from now on." Song Yuzhou said in a low voice.
Song Chen didn't say anything, but just held Xixi's hand with a little more force.
"I'm taking Xixi out to play." Song Chen said, turning around and leaving with Xixi.
Seeing this, Song Ye hurriedly followed.
"It seems that they don't quite approve of me as their stepmother." Jiang Zhining said with a faint smile.
Song Yuzhou said calmly: "I have talked to them and they will accept it. Zhining, let's talk."
Seeing his serious expression, Jiang Zhining nodded, and the two of them sat down in the room.
Song Yuzhou considered his words and finally decided to speak frankly: "I can't have children."
What! Jiang Zhining's eyes couldn't help but look down, and she swallowed silently: He, can't?
