Jiang Mian terminated her lease, took her luggage, and didn't plan to return to the mansion immediately.

Lanshan Mansion is far away, and transportation is inconvenient for her to come out. Since she has come out on this trip by hitchhiking, she naturally takes care of what needs to be done.

I went to the flower and bird market and bought some vegetable and flower seeds.

There is also a small turtle, several goldfish, a fish tank and a turtle tank.

I also bought a few bouquets of flowers.

To prevent Xiaoshi from having a pollen allergy, on the way back, Jiang Mian carefully cut off the stamens of each flower with small scissors.

She really didn't want the house to be so lifeless.

Thinking back to the many years in the past, the child lived alone in that lifeless space.

Jiang Mian felt as if her heart was being torn apart.

Who raises children like that?

But since she's new here, she can't act rashly yet. She can only proceed slowly and gradually so that Little Stone can be happier.

What she has achieved today is just the first step in her gradual progress.

It's still unknown how Lu Bozhou will react after seeing this.

But once they got home, Xiao Shitou's reaction to seeing all this made Jiang Mian realize that Lu Bozhou's reaction didn't matter anymore.

Even if the sky were to fall, she could still hold it up.

"turtle!"

"goldfish!"

"Mian Mian!"

Lu Chaochi's eyes sparkled like stars as he looked at the turtle, the goldfish, and Jiang Mian.

"Do you like it?" Jiang Mian smiled. Seeing the child happy made it all worthwhile.

"I love it so much!" Lu Chaochi was rarely this excited. "I love Mianmian the most!"

Even the bodyguard rarely saw the young master so happy. "Then I'll help you install the two tanks."

Jiang Mian disagreed, "It's okay, thank you for your hard work today, I can do it myself."

She looked at Lu Chaochi, "Shall we put the jar together later?"

“Okay!” Lu Chaochi nodded repeatedly.

Jiang Mian first took out the ingredients to thaw, and then started arranging flowers, trimming each flower she bought and placing them in the vase.

"So beautiful, Mianmian, you're amazing." Lu Chaochi exclaimed, but he stood a little far away, peering into the kitchen doorway, but dared not come in.

"Why don't you come in?" Jiang Mian asked him.

"I have pollen allergies, so I can't come in," Lu Chaochi said softly, even a little worried that his delicate body might cause Mianmian some trouble.

Jiang Mian smiled and said, "There's no pollen left, so I cut off all the stamens before bringing them back. As long as you don't touch them, it should be fine. Don't be afraid."

Hearing how thoughtful she was, Lu Chaochi's eyes lit up, and he walked over to her side.

After arranging the flowers, Jiang Mian made some food for the children, and then the two of them installed the fish tank and turtle tank together.

Then the goldfish and the turtle were put into their respective new homes.

After doing all that, the child is tired.

Jiang Mian took him back to his room and coaxed him to sleep. She listened to the soft breathing of the child lying in her arms as he fell asleep.

Jiang Mian also felt her eyelids getting heavy, and soon fell asleep.

The front door is open in the entryway.

A tall, imposing man strode into the entryway.

The house was clean and tidy, just like always.

But unlike usual, there was a warm and cozy atmosphere.

On the coffee table, which is usually empty, there are building blocks that have been played with and then neatly stacked.

There was also a plate with washed berries and cookies on the side.

Lu Bozhou's gaze swept over these things, but it seemed to drift somewhat far away.

While I'm looking at these things, it's as if I'm looking through them at some distant past.

He walked to the back and saw two glass jars on a cabinet in the corner not far away.

The lights were all on, illuminating the shimmering water and lush greenery inside.

Small fish swam among the aquatic plants in the fish tank. A turtle climbed onto the basking platform and peered around.

He subtly furrowed his brow, then gently poked the surface of the tank with his finger, causing the small fish to scatter.

It was as if some emotion was quietly accumulating.

His gaze finally fell upon the large vase of beautifully arranged and colorful flowers on the dining table.

Lu Bozhou narrowed his eyes and strode towards the room at the end of the corridor.

The door wasn't locked; as soon as I pushed it open, I saw...

The child lay in the woman's arms, sleeping soundly. He appeared completely dependent and relaxed.

She was asleep, her long hair spread out on the pillow.

However, she wasn't sleeping as soundly as the child, and she heard the door being pushed open.

Jiang Mian quickly opened her eyes, still a little sleepy.

But when she met the man's deep and piercing eyes at the door, she was instantly jolted awake.

Lu Bozhou stood there, raised his hand and beckoned her to leave.

Jiang Mian carefully pulled her arm out of the small stone's pillow, quietly got up and left the room, closing the door behind her.

From what the bodyguard and Xiao Shitou said, Jiang Mian could easily tell that this man didn't come home often.

But these past two days, he's come back every day. He's probably still worried about her.

"Good afternoon, Mr. Lu, what brings you here..." Jiang Mian hadn't finished speaking.

The man abruptly interrupted, his voice sharp, "Come with me."

Jiang Mian obediently followed him, guessing that it was probably because of the things she had bought that day.

"I hired you to take care of the children, not to do interior design." The man's voice was devoid of any warmth.

Jiang Mian wanted to explain, "I..."

But he didn't give her a chance to explain and pulled her into the restaurant.

Jiang Mian felt a sharp pain in her wrist from his grip, and she couldn't help but bite her lip gently to endure it.

"And flowers? Lu Chaochi is allergic to pollen." Lu Bozhou's voice seemed even colder. "If you can't even understand your child's health, you might as well..."

"Don't blame Mianmian." The child had just woken up, and her voice still had a soft, nasal tone, but it was not hard to hear the urgency and worry in her voice.

"She cut off all the flower stamens before bringing it back; she was very careful! Dad, please don't blame her."

Before Jiang Mian could explain, the child hurriedly explained.

Lu Bozhou remained silent, only glancing at Jiang Mian with a faint look. After a moment, he spoke, "What about the turtle and the fish?"

The sound no longer sounded as cold and piercing as before.

Jiang Mian thought about what she had planned before: what she had to do to fight for the child.

So at that moment, she bit her lip and forced herself to speak.

“I think children should interact with small animals to become more cheerful and outgoing, so I bought goldfish and turtles.”

“Children should also have more time for outdoor activities. I also bought some vegetable and flower seeds, and I plan to plant them with him.”

"I also think children should go out and see the world, even if it's just a casual stroll on the street. Sufficient outdoor time is more beneficial to children's physical and mental health."

At this point, Jiang Mian added, "This is my... professional opinion, after all, I'm from Luocheng Normal University."

Lu Bozhou glanced at her indifferently. "Didn't you drop out of school?" [Qiqi is asking for votes again. Heavy rain in the north, be careful, my darlings in the north. I recently rewatched Descendants of the Sun, it's still so good!]
