Me at two years old, a queen!

Once things were settled, Lu Junxing took An'an back to the old house for a few days. Lu's parents spoiled her, granting her every wish. Having received the benefits, An'an wasn't as clingy as before, constantly insisting on going to the company with Lu Junxing.

But if Lu Junxing didn't come home in the evening, she would call him one after another, urging him to put her to bed.

That day, Lu Junxing, who had been busy for several days, returned home early. As soon as his car entered the old house gate, he saw a little bundle of joy in a white down jacket walking ahead. With a tug of her little hand, the flower that had been cultivated at great expense turned into soil.

Following closely behind was Gu's mother, who was holding a camera, and a maid carrying a pink water bottle and serving fruit and snacks.

An elderly man leaning on a cane exclaimed exaggeratedly, "Wow, my good boy is amazing! Our darling is so capable!"

"Look how neatly and efficiently these flowers were picked! Quick and precise! Hahaha~, just like my old days!"

"Quick! Bring a few more from the sunroom!"

Seeing this, Zhao Chenyu glanced at the petals scattered on the ground and exclaimed, "Wow! This is incredible! The old man is really generous; those were several pots of orchids airlifted from S City!"

This must be the special bond between grandparents and grandchildren! It seems the wealthy really dote on their grandchildren. I wonder if those plucked petals from such an expensive flower are even worth anything; he just wanted to take some home.

"Hehe~, am I good?"

"Amazing! Miss An'an is the best baby I've ever seen!"

"Of course! I'm the most powerful queen, you all have to listen to the whole thing~"

Looking at the little girl whose tail was practically wagging in the air, Lu Junxing impatiently grabbed her bottom and slapped it twice: "Really? So impressive? You can go to kindergarten tomorrow!"

"Ouch~, it hurts~"

"You brat, are you asking for a beating? You come back and start hitting people right away!" The old man waved his cane at Lu Junxing and said irritably, "An'an was playing happily, why did you hit the child as soon as you got back!"

"That's right, that's right~, why did you spank him~"

The little girl seized the opportunity to cover her bottom and ran behind Ms. Song Yuan, shouting, "I don't want to go to kindergarten!"

"Did it hurt? Let Grandma see." Madam Song wasn't close to Lu Junxing, so she didn't say anything to scold him, but the resentment and disapproval in her eyes were undisguised.

"It hurts, boohoo!"

The little girl glanced shrewdly at the dark-faced man, then turned and nestled triumphantly into Ms. Song Yuan's arms: "Hmph~, Daddy's a bad guy! I hate him the most!"

"Why send him to kindergarten? The child is so young, what's the point of him going to school?" The old man scolded his grandson. He had finally gotten a great-grandson, and he hadn't even had a chance to enjoy him for long.

Lu Junxing thought about how his son had received early childhood education and had begun speaking at a young age, recognizing characters and reciting classical poems by the age of two. He wondered if starting kindergarten was too early for him. This troublesome child was already slow-witted; what if he became even more stupid if he didn't study more?

He stepped forward, scooped up the little girl who was making faces at him, tucked her under his arm, patted her bottom twice, and strode towards the hall.

"Waaaaah~, waaaah~"

Seeing this, the old man followed up and was about to hit him a couple of times: "Put it down right now! What have I taught you! You always hit the child, what kind of problem is this!"

Ms. Song Yuan, who had remained silent until now, quickly stepped forward to stop the old man's cane. To be honest, she was delighted to see Lu Junxing so emotionally expressive.

"Sweetie~, don't cry, I'll teach him a lesson right away."

"Hmph! She's dressed like a ball, how could I possibly hurt her?"

Lu Junxing, with a stern face, pinched the chubby cheek with one hand and showed the little girl who was being held up by her head as she fell down, saying: "All talk and no action! What are you crying for!"

He picked up the little girl and placed her on the sofa, saying, "Stop wailing! You're quite adept at crying. You've been crying to get candy these past few days, haven't you? Hmm?"

"You're very skilled at your job. What kind of random TV series have you been watching these past few days?"

Lu Junxing knew her best; she loved eating sweets, watching "Three Pigs," and secretly watching all sorts of random videos.

An'an looked at the dark-faced man and nervously snapped her fingers together. She then looked pitifully at the old man, Ms. Song Yuan, Aunt Liu, and the housekeeper around her, but she noticed that they seemed quite afraid of men as well.

"Stop talking nonsense. I've been the one putting these on for her these past few days... you know, that show An'an likes, what's it called again, the one with the pig? Don't get too caught up in playing the CEO around here."

The old man was a veteran of the battlefield, a man of his word, and he couldn't tolerate anyone distrusting him, even if that person was his grandson whom he had raised.

Seeing this, Lu Junxing didn't want to argue with an old man, and besides, he hadn't intended to argue in the first place. He simply picked the man up and put him in the corner, intending to make him face the wall and reflect on his actions as per the old custom.

Having gone through this process several times, An'an had grown accustomed to and even disliked the corner of the wall.

But the old men standing nearby had never seen anything like this before. They thought Lu Junxing was about to go aside and start beating the child, and they were so frightened that they all reached out to pull Lu Junxing away.

"Stop it! Put the child down!"

"Junxing! Let's talk this out. Put the child down! You'll frighten him."

Even Ms. Song Yuan, who had remained silent until now, spoke up to stop it.

"Oh dear, young master, the child is still young!"

"The young lady is still too young to understand."

Noisy and chaotic

Seeing this scene, An'an was terrified: "Waaah~, Daddy~, An'an is scared~"

The little girl was scared, feeling like she had done something wrong. Everyone was anxious, and her father was angry too. Looking at the chaotic scene, she felt uneasy and tugged at the man's sleeve.

"Waaah~, I was wrong~, Daddy, An'an is scared~, waaah~"
