Seeing that their parents had run out of conversation again, the two children rolled their eyes and quickly spoke up to liven things up.
Rui Rui: "Mommy promised to play with us again tomorrow. Daddy, can we not go home tonight and stay with Mommy?"
"It's been a long time since I slept with Mommy. I really miss being held by Mommy while I sleep."
Ge Er: "Yes. We can also discuss what to play tomorrow. Disneyland is too crowded, I don't want to go to Disneyland anymore."
Their words had led to a dead end, and the atmosphere in the car was awkward.
Seeing what the children said, Jiang Nanfang said to Zhan Beijue, "You promised me you could take them on the weekend. Since that's the case, let them come with me tonight."
"Come with you? What if you play some tricks?"
"..."
Zhan Beijue kicked A Zhong's seat and said, "Go to Tianfu International."
Upon arrival, the four of them got out of the car together. Seeing Zhan Beijue intended to go upstairs with them, Jiang Nanfang couldn't help but feel puzzled.
"Are you staying here tonight too?"
"If you can live in my house, can't I live in it?"
"..."
"It's the same thing I said. If you have any ulterior motives, I need to watch you at all times."
In fact, subconsciously, he was a little uneasy about her.
Because his father frequented places of indulgence all day during his lifetime, Zhan Beijue had also quarreled with him.
He understood the feelings one had after falling out with close relatives.
Although Jiang Nanfang had committed many evil deeds, her mother had saved him, and now she was the engineer in charge of new products.
For the favors and benefits owed from the past, it was not unreasonable to accompany her for one night.
What if, in the middle of the night, she couldn't sleep and became impulsive again, getting into a fight and being beaten to death? Wouldn't the new product that Vice President Gao had painstakingly planned for so long be wasted?
Upon entering, the mother and two children took off their shoes and went to wash up.
Rui Rui, normally such a aloof child, who disdained even playing jokes, turned into a normal five-year-old child in front of Jiang Nanfang.
He chattered and hopped, filling the bathroom with his joyous laughter, a complete transformation from his usual self.
After showering, Jiang Nanfang wrapped them up, carried them out one by one, and placed them on the bed to tell stories and coax them to sleep.
The story was finished, and Ge Er had fallen into a deep sleep. However, Rui Rui's eyes were wide open.
"Mommy, it's getting late. You're also tired today, hurry up and take a shower and rest."
Jiang Nanfang kissed her forehead. "Okay. Wait for Mommy, I'll be right back to accompany you."
"My sister and I have grown up, we don't need you to accompany us. You go sleep with Daddy."
"?"
"It's always shown that way in cartoons. Daddy and Mommy are supposed to live in the same room and sleep in the same bed. It's okay, my sister and I understand, hurry up and go."
Jiang Nanfang thought he was joking, smiled, patted him, and went to the bathroom to wash up.
She thought Rui Rui would be waiting for her after she finished washing up. Unexpectedly, when she pushed the door open, it was locked from the inside.
This child, could he really want her to sleep with Zhan Beijue?
Having made a mistake once and twice, Zhan Beijue's attitude had been unpleasant afterward.
Jiang Nanfang would absolutely not make the mistake a third time.
Since Rui Rui wouldn't let her in, she could just switch to another room.
Zhan Beijue was still wearing his daytime clothes, sitting on the sofa with his legs spread wide, watching a football match.
His clothes had been put in the washing machine, and Jiang Nanfang returned to the living room wrapped in a bath towel. "Which room should I stay in?"
Zhan Beijue glanced at her as he turned his head, and his blood immediately surged.
Her shoulders were bare, and her legs were exposed. This woman knew no restraint, always using such a pose to seduce him!
Zhan Beijue quickly averted his eyes. "Of course, the second bedroom. Do you want to sleep with me?"
Although you are good-looking, and your physique is better than that of ordinary men, I, Jiang Nanfang, am not that desperate, okay?
With a bang, she closed the door of the second bedroom and locked it from the inside.
The night passed peacefully.
The next morning, Jiang Nanfang went downstairs to buy breakfast. The family ate while planning where to go today.
"We can go anywhere, as long as we're with Daddy and Mommy, my sister and I will be happy."
These words were as good as saying nothing. Jiang Nanfang had to search for nearby attractions on her phone.
However, after looking for a long time, she couldn't decide, feeling that nowhere was good enough.
Jiang Nanfang asked Zhan Beijue, "Do you have any ideas?"
Zhan Beijue sipped his porridge elegantly and put down the bowl.
"I have something to do today."
"Then you're not joining us today?"
Zhan Beijue shot her a meaningful glance, as if to say, "You like me so much that you wish I was with you all the time."
Jiang Nanfang immediately regretted asking that question.
"That's great! Since you're not joining us, we have more options."
"Do you two know what the most exquisite cuisine in China is?"
The two children didn't know what she was going to say and looked at her excitedly, shaking their heads.
Jiang Nanfang said, "Hot pot! Mommy made it for you before when we were in Dan Country, right? It's just a pity it wasn't authentic."
"It's rare for us to come back, and it would be a waste not to eat hot pot. Shall we go to an indoor children's playground and eat hot pot for lunch?"
Yay, that's wonderful! Being with Daddy, they were told they couldn't eat this or that all day.
Although the chefs at home made them delicious food in various ways, they all tasted bland and light children's dishes, which the two of them had grown tired of.
The two children almost jumped up together: "Okay, okay, I want to eat hot pot! That's great, Mommy is taking us to eat hot pot!"
Zhan Beijue, however, frowned: "Jiang Nanfang, is this how you are as a mother?"
"Taking them to eat hot pot isn't like eating poison, do you have an opinion?"
"What's the difference between letting such young children eat hot pot and eating poison?"
"..."
"I don't agree. Their stomachs are not good, and hot pot will cause internal heat. You cannot go."
"So many people in the country, children who eat hot pot with their parents every day, they are all fine, but they cannot?"
"Others are others, they are them. My children, do you think children can be compared to others?"
"..."
"If you really have no good ideas, let them come with me. I have plenty of fun places for them to spend their time."
Jiang Nanfang was truly exasperated with him.
He had only known the children for a few days and was already bossing them around. Who did he think he was!
"You're interfering too much..."
Seeing that they were about to argue again, Ge Er's eyes rolled, and she jumped out to offer a suggestion.
"Stop arguing, Daddy and Mommy. I think both of you have valid points."
"Since you both have valid points and neither of you can convince the other, how about we play a little game to decide whose advice to follow?"
