Xie Heng did everything he promised when she was pregnant, and he even did much better than she could have imagined.

She became a mother, but she was still as free as before. She had her own career and could go shopping whenever she wanted and do whatever she wanted.

She had just given birth, and the nurse brought Zhou Suisui to her to see. He was small, wrinkled, and looked very ugly. She was scared and pouted her mouth, about to cry.

She and Xie Heng are both so good-looking, why did they give birth to such a thing?

Xie Heng quickly asked someone to take the child out.

He half-knelt in front of her delivery bed, carefully wiping away her tears bit by bit. He comforted her that all newborn babies were like this, and assured her that their baby would be the most beautiful after a few days of growth.

He stayed by her side and took care of her the whole time, even bringing his work to the hospital. She concentrated on recovering and didn't remember that she had given birth to a son until several days later.

Xie Heng then brought the child over to show her. He was wrapped in a blanket and wearing a small hat. His face had become white, soft, and chubby. His eyes were big and blinked as he looked around. He didn't seem shy at all.

Xie Heng placed the child next to her, and she couldn't let go of him, constantly playing with him. The child suddenly started crying, and Xie Heng immediately came over, expertly changing his diaper and washing his bottom. After cleaning the child, he placed him back next to her. He turned around to make the milk powder, and when it was ready, he handed it to Zhou Yanning, "Do you want to feed him? It's fun."

Zhou Yanning took it and put the pacifier to Zhou Suisui's mouth. He opened his mouth and took the pacifier into his mouth, eating it in big mouthfuls. He was eating happily, staring at Zhou Yanning with smiling eyes.

Xie Heng also got on the bed next to her, and the two of them watched Zhou Suisui drinking milk in fascination.

After finishing his drink, Xie Heng picked up the child and burped him. After a while, Zhou Suisui fell asleep. Xie Heng gently put him down and said to Zhou Yanning, "I didn't lie to you, did I? He has grown handsome."

Zhou Yanning asked: "Why are you so skilled in taking care of children?"

Xie Heng held her in his arms. "I did all that homework before, and it wasn't in vain. These days when you were resting, I went to practice with him. How could I not be proficient?"

Zhou Yanning hesitated, "Why didn't you remind me? I only remembered him today."

"When you can't remember him, it proves that you don't need him." Xie Heng kissed the corner of her eyes. "You are a mother, but you are more importantly yourself."

Zhou Yanning hugged him and said, "Thank you."

"I love you."

Zhou Suisui was five years old and had received a large amount of lucky money during the Chinese New Year. Zhou Yanning was collecting his offerings when her third aunt approached from behind. "Yanning, Suisui is so old now. Have you and Xie Heng considered having a second child?"

When Zhou Suisui found out what a second child was, he immediately said, "No, no! My mom doesn't want a second child!"

He is different from other children. He has known since childhood how painful it is for a mother to give birth.

He couldn't bear to see his mother suffer, and neither could his father.

When Zhou Yanning mentioned this matter in the evening, she was a little shaken.

When her first birthday came, apart from pregnancy and childbirth, she hadn't experienced any other hardships. The worst that could happen was another ten months of hardship. She tentatively asked Xie Heng, "How about... we have another child?"

Xie Heng had a vasectomy a long time ago, so if she wanted to have a baby, she had to persuade him to have the surgery first.

She had a good reason: "Look at Sui Sui, raising her to this age is actually quite fun."

Who knew Xie Heng would resolutely refuse to give in, "This one is enough, do you want to tire me to death?"

Since he has given Zhou Yanning enough freedom, he, as a father, should spend more time with Zhou Suisui. He is their child, so he naturally has to do his best to teach him well and let him feel enough love.

Zhou Yanning suddenly felt guilty and never mentioned it again.

On the occasion of the first-grade parent-teacher conference, Xie Hengyuan was away on a business trip in Paris. He called Zhou Yanning with a look of regret, "Wife, you're the only one who has to go this time."

Zhou Yanning could sense a hint of gloating in his tone.

Zhou Suisui is an energetic and mischievous classmate. He talks to people around him during class and runs around the classroom and corridors after class. Xie Heng has been a successful person throughout his life and is respected wherever he goes, but he cannot hold his head up in front of Zhou Suisui's teacher.

Zhou Yanning was no less shameless than him. After the parent-teacher meeting, her smiling face suddenly fell. During the forty minutes she had sat in the classroom, she had already thought of how to punish the little devil at home.

So Zhou Suisui was happy to copy the text ten times.

He secretly called Xie Heng and told him that his hands were about to break from copying.

"Mom looks so angry," he said worriedly.

Xie Heng asked him, "How many times have you copied it?"

"Eight times, two more to go."

"It's very late now. Tell your mother that it's time to go to bed. Children shouldn't stay up late." Xie Heng coaxed him, "Dad will plead with your mother for you later."

Zhou Suisui was very touched: "Dad, you are so kind."

After giving her a sweet date, Xie Heng got to the point: "But you also have to apologize to your mother. Your behavior at school caused her to be criticized by the teacher, and she was very embarrassed."

"Ah?" Zhou Suisui said in surprise, "Teacher Li is so gentle, how could she say mom?"

"That's not to say," Xie Heng chose his words carefully. "Teacher Li said that the other children were all obedient and sensible, but you were naughty. Tell me, sitting among a group of parents, isn't it as awkward as a monkey in a zoo being watched?"

Zhou Yanning, who was eavesdropping at the door, silently took note that Xie Heng actually said she was a monkey in the zoo.

Zhou Suisui imagined the scene his father described and felt that he was so sorry for his mother. He was so guilty that he didn't speak for a long time.

Xie Heng said, "Sui Sui, you're in elementary school now. Elementary school is different from kindergarten. In kindergarten, you only need to play and make friends, and the teacher's job is just to make you happy and get you home safely every day. But in elementary school, you're here to learn, and the teacher's main job is to teach you knowledge. Your classmates' parents send them to school because they want them to study hard. So, you have to respect your teachers, follow classroom rules, and don't disturb other students, understand?"

Zhou Suisui muttered, "But my teachers and classmates obviously like me too."

"I know you're good at being likable, but influencing others is another matter entirely," Xie Heng said. "Can you do the right thing in the right situation?"

He used his trump card: "Don't make Mom angry again."

Zhou Suisui nodded quickly, "I understand."

Xie Heng talked to him for a while before hanging up the phone.

Zhou Yanning tiptoed to the sofa in the living room, pretending to know nothing, and waited for Zhou Suisui to come and apologize to her coquettishly.

After Zhou Suisui went back to her room to sleep, she called Xie Heng and asked, "Mr. Xie, I've thought about it carefully. Are you plotting against me as well?"

Xie Heng laughed, "What nonsense! It's hard enough for me to discipline my children, and you still speculate about me like this?"

Zhou Yanning snorted, "Don't think I don't know. You did this on purpose, letting me play the bad guy and you play the bad guy."

Xie Heng stopped pretending, "He likes you the most, so a little show of your face is more effective than a beating from me."

"Don't be angry, I brought you a gift, I'm sure you like it, guess what it is?"

"I won't guess." He was coming back tomorrow anyway. "If you don't satisfy me, I'll settle the matter with you about calling me a monkey in the zoo."

Xie Heng: “…”

One day, the winged pink pig suddenly reappeared in Zhou Yanning's mind. He flapped his wings and flew around, extremely happy, "Master, I feel that the power of the plot has completely disappeared. This world will no longer be controlled by any plot!"

"Master, I can take you away directly to the next world. After you have traveled through all the worlds, we can return to the fairyland and settle the score with Siming!"

Zhou Yanning shook her head. "Piggy, you don't seem to understand."

"Although I am grateful to you and I like you very much, I am really unhappy that you let me leave this world."

"This is my world. I was born and raised here. I have complete memories and a complete life. Here, I am Zhou Yanning, not your master." Zhou Yanning smiled, her eyes full of tenderness. "Here are my lover and family. I live a happy life. I will live out my life here until death allows me to leave."
