"It's all yours. I am yours completely." Leng Zexi gazed affectionately at his little wife with skin as white as snow and rosy white, his eyes full of pampering and satisfaction.

This is the person he cared for with all his heart.

However, facing Leng Zexi's fiery gaze, Xia Ruoan shyly pulled his hand away and gently scolded him, "Stop it! You've been so busy running around lately and haven't had a good rest. You should take a break."

Leng Zexi smiled slightly when he heard this, rubbed his forehead with his hand, and replied with a bit of helplessness: "I'm actually fine. I just had a nap on the plane. I'm very energetic now and don't feel sleepy at all."

"You, on the other hand, look a little tired. Are you sleepy?" As he spoke, his eyes fell on Xia Ruoan's slightly tired face with concern.

Hearing this, Xia Ruoan nodded and replied softly, "Yeah, I'm a little sleepy indeed. How about this, you go over and put the money away for Ningning first."

As he spoke, he handed the money in his hand to Leng Zexi.

After taking the money, Leng Zexi frowned slightly and said, "I'll give it to him later. There's no need to take money from you."

Seeing Leng Zexi say this, Xia Ruoan also laughed helplessly: "What a person you are! Didn't you always say that everything you have is mine? If that's the case, then what's the difference between your money and my money?"

"Besides, you always rely on Ningning's trust in you to 'cheat' a little money from him from time to time. Don't you feel embarrassed?"

After saying that, she didn't know what to say.

"I did this to make him realize clearly what consequences he will face in the future if he doesn't study hard."

"I didn't mean to deceive Ningning. I can't deceive those two guys, Suisui and Niannian. They even expressed contempt for my behavior!" Leng Zexi looked at her innocently and hurriedly explained.

Recalling the scene at that time, Leng Zexi couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Originally, I didn't have any hope of successfully deceiving Ning Ning."

"But who knew this little guy was so naive and was easily fooled."

"What's even funnier is that later, when I felt too embarrassed to continue deceiving him, he actually took the initiative to come to me with banknotes to exchange for coins. Looking back now, it's really ridiculous."

As he said this, Leng Zexi couldn't help laughing.

However, Xia Ruoan frowned and said with a hint of blame: "You, not only did you not correct the mistake in time, but you allowed him to continue making the same mistake."

"What if Ningning no longer trusts you as his biological father? If you, as his closest person, can lie to him, do you think he will dare to trust others easily in the future?"

Hearing his wife's words, Leng Zexi immediately put away his smile and sincerely admitted his mistake: "Okay, okay, my dear wife, you are right. It's all my fault. I promise that I will never lie to him again and will reflect deeply on my behavior."

Seeing that he truly realized his mistake, Xia Ruoan's expression eased a little.

At this time, Leng Zexi comforted his wife again: "Don't worry too much, our Ningning has an open-minded personality. I guess this matter will be forgotten in a couple of days. She will definitely not take it to heart."

After hearing this, Xia Ruoan's mouth twitched slightly, and he secretly sighed in his heart: It's really unlucky for my son to have such an unreliable father.

Seeing his wife's disapproving look, Leng Zexi could only take the money and put it on Ningning's bedside table to ensure that he would see it when he woke up in the morning.

Leng Zexi casually glanced at the items on the middle counter, and his eyes were quickly attracted by the ceramic dolls placed among them.

Xia Ruoan’s cute little house was also quietly placed there, as if telling a warm and sweet story.

Next to it, there was an unopened ceramic doll sealed in a transparent glass box that was particularly eye-catching. This must be the gift Ningning specially prepared for the little one from the Wen family.

Leng Zexi gently picked up the unopened ceramic doll, examined it carefully, and then carefully returned it to its original place. His gaze slowly shifted to the three children sleeping soundly not far away, and a wave of emotion welled up in his heart.

However, after not seeing each other for just over half a month, these children have changed so much.

It is said that children are like tender seedlings in spring, growing as soon as they are exposed to the wind. Today I have truly experienced this.

In the blink of an eye, they are all three years old. Recalling the scene when I first saw them, they were all still in cradles, their tiny bodies curled up into a ball, like fragile kittens, so adorable.

But now, they are all white and plump, lively and active, full of vitality and energy.

Especially when he saw their bright and pure eyes, Leng Zexi's heart was filled with joy.

Just like that, Leng Zexi silently watched these three innocent children, and time seemed to stand still at this moment.

After a long while, he reluctantly withdrew his gaze and turned to walk towards Xia Ruoan's bedroom.

As soon as I opened the door, I heard Xia Ruoan's slightly puzzled voice: "Why did you come back just now?"

Leng Zexi smiled slightly and responded: "Why haven't you slept yet?"

After the two finished speaking, their eyes met and they smiled at each other. This smile seemed to contain thousands of words and endless tacit understanding.

Leng Zexi slowly walked towards the bed, then gently got on the bed, stretched out his arms and gently embraced Xia Ruoan in his arms.

"Ruoan, didn't you just say you were tired? Why don't you go to sleep first? You don't have to wait for me."

Leng Zexi's voice was low and caring, like a warm spring breeze blowing past Xia Ruoan's ears.

Xia Ruoan yawned and snuggled in Leng Zexi's arms, saying softly, "I want to wait for you to come back, and there is something I want to tell you."

Leng Zexi smiled dotingly, gently stroking Xia Ruoan's cheek with his fingers, and asked with pity: "What's so important that you have to tell me now?"

As he spoke, he couldn't help but lower his head and kiss Xia Ruoan's face.

"It must have been hard taking care of the children these days," Leng Zexi said with concern.

Xia Ruoan shook his head slightly and said, "It's not particularly important, but I just wanted to talk to you about it."

"I think I'm fine. I'm not tired from taking care of three little ones, but I can still handle it."

"But if we talk about hardship, it's definitely Dad who has it the hardest. He's so mad at these little naughty kids, but Mom always protects them, leaving Dad with nowhere to vent his anger."

At this point, Xia Ruoan couldn't help laughing, and continued, "Especially those trees near our old house. Ningning and the others have almost made them bare. The bark is almost falling off!"

"And the fish in the pond. Every time I see them messing around, I worry that they're scared to death. They're lucky to be alive."

Xia Ruoan felt both amused and distressed when she thought of the love-hate and helpless expression on her father-in-law's face when he looked at Ningning and the others these days.

"When you're not at home, these three little brats are like wild horses that have broken free from their reins. They're impossible to control."

Xia Ruoan frowned and sighed helplessly, "I even wonder how you managed to get through when you were alone at home taking care of them."

"That's because you all spoil them too much and don't even bother to discipline them, which is why these little guys have become lawless."

"They just need to be punished. Give them a good beating and they'll definitely behave themselves immediately."

Leng Zexi spoke with a serious face, as if he had his own unique insights and methods for educating children.

Then, he turned his gaze to his wife beside him and said slowly, "A spanking won't hurt a child like Ningning. You can make him practice calligraphy, or give him a small punishment, like making him stand in the corner or something."

"But you definitely can't take him with your parents. After all, if Ningning stands there for just two minutes longer, my parents will definitely be heartbroken and will immediately run over to pull him aside and comfort him."

Speaking of this, Leng Zexi couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Then, he continued confidently, "But if I were there supervising, the situation would be completely different."

"Ningning will definitely be honest and well-behaved, and won't dare to do anything rash." After saying that, Leng Zexi deliberately raised his eyebrows at her, as if to show her his authority and ability as a father.

"Did you beat them when you were leading them alone before?" Xia Ruoan looked at them and asked.

Leng Zexi felt a little guilty when he saw Xia Ruoan getting angry. "I didn't hit him hard, I just hit him once."

"Really?" Xia Ruoan looked at him doubtfully.

Xia Ruoan always thought that he spoiled the child, but she didn't expect that he would really beat him.

"Children should be beaten when they deserve it. They can't be spoiled." Leng Zexi said with a guilty conscience. He knew that his wife had always disapproved of beating children, so whenever he really did it, he would avoid his wife's presence.

"They are already sensible. Talk to them nicely and don't hit them all the time." Xia Ruoan said worriedly.

"If the situation is really serious enough to require physical action, you should explain it clearly to them. If they really deserve a fight, I won't stop them, but you just have to be careful." Xia Ruoan looked at him and said.

He has been the one who has taken care of most of the three children. He knows their personalities better than I do, not to mention that he loves them just as much as I do.

"Well, I know my limits." Leng Zexi nodded, feeling relieved that his wife understood him.

He didn't want his wife to dislike him because of the child's education.
