The mysterious CEO's endless pampering

Shen Yanran was speechless for a moment.

Good heavens, how could he have the nerve to say that?

In Haicheng, who would dare to laugh at President Li? People would be too busy trying to curry favor with him.

However, on the other hand, at business parties, other bosses are accompanied by their families, but he isn't, which doesn't seem quite right.

If rumors of marital discord were to surface again, it would be a loss for them.

Besides, she can't possibly never accompany him to company events for the rest of her life.

Now that she's been married for so long, she should get used to her identity as a "wealthy wife".

"Okay, then so you won't stand out too much, I'll come with you."

"I knew my wife was the best to me. Come here and let your husband give you a kiss." Li Zhanting happily gave Shen Yanran a very loud kiss.

The two of them started cuddling in bed again.

Then there was a knock on the bedroom door and a voice saying, "Sir, Madam, breakfast is ready."

While grabbing Li Zhanting's restless hand, Shen Yanran raised her voice and said, "Okay, I understand, Aunt Chen. Can you check if Tongtong is up yet and call him to eat together?"

Aunt Chen immediately replied from outside the door, "Yes, madam, I'll go take a look right away."

When she arrived at Gu Zitong's door, before she could even knock, the door was opened from the inside.

Gu Zitong appeared before Aunt Chen, dressed neatly, and greeted her politely, "Good morning, Grandma Chen."

Thinking that Shen Yanran treated him very well, Aunt Chen didn't dare to be negligent. "Yes, good morning. Madam asked me to call you for breakfast."

As soon as she finished speaking, the soft meowing of a cat drifted over, "Meow meow meow..."

Gu Zitong was stunned for a moment, thinking he had misheard. He hadn't heard Shen Yanran mention that there were cats here.

Then he saw an orange figure appear, which was larger than he had imagined.

It was the first time Rou Rou had seen Gu Zitong. Curious, it sniffed his legs but didn't find any scent it disliked.

Then it happily ran to Shen Yanran's bedroom door, sat obediently, and meowed at the door.

Shen Yanran had just changed her clothes when she heard Rou Rou calling her from the doorway. Her heart fluttered with excitement, and she forgot to put on her slippers before running over to open the door.

The moment she reached out, Rou Rou skillfully nestled into her arms, then proactively revealed her soft little belly.

Shen Yanran hadn't petted the chubby cat in a long time. The feel, the weight—it was definitely the chubby little cat she knew.

It's so cute.

Seeing Shen Yanran interacting so happily with the chubby orange cat, Gu Zitong felt a strange unease.

Because he once went to his uncle's house to fight with stray cats for food in order to fill his stomach, and was even scratched by them.

There are some shadows in my heart.

They didn't even dare to approach Shen Yanran.

But soon, the orange cat in Shen Yanran's arms was taken away by a pair of large hands.

Li Zhanting spoke like an old father disciplining his playful daughter, saying, "It's time to eat. You can play with it after you finish eating."

Shen Yanran patted the fur that had fallen from her hand and nodded helplessly, "Oh, I know, I'll go wash my hands."

Rou Rou didn't like being with a hard, stiff man. She wriggled a few times in Li Zhanting's arms and then ran away to the nursery.

That was its second favorite place to go.

Among them are his second favorite "little cat owners".

When Gu Zitong saw it, she was a little worried, afraid that the fat orange cat named Rou Rou would hurt Aunt Yanran's daughter and son.

When Shen Yanran came out after washing her hands, he immediately asked anxiously, "Aunt Yanran, the cat ran to my younger brother and sister. Is it in danger?"

Shen Yanran knew what he was worried about, so she bent down, gently stroked his handsome hair, and explained softly, "No, An'an and Ningning have been playing with Rou Rou since they were a month old, and there have never been any problems. Rou Rou also treats them as his own kind and protects them at all times. They have a great relationship, so don't worry. Come on, I'll take you to have breakfast."

On the table.

Gu Zitong thought that wealthy people would have many rules for eating breakfast, just like in the movies: sit up straight, use utensils quietly, and not talk casually...

So, in order to leave a better impression on Shen Yanran, he sat quietly next to her and waited for the breakfast ceremony to begin.

Normally, only Shen Yanran and Li Zhanting eat at the restaurant; Aunt Chen never sits at the table.

The twins also have their own special food, which they eat in their baby stroller.

So Gu Zitong was the first person to officially have breakfast with them.

At home, Shen Yanran never fusses about food; she eats whatever she likes, and Li Zhanting spoils her by putting all her favorite dishes in front of her.

Shen Yanran had already taken several bites when she noticed that Gu Zitong hadn't touched her chopsticks yet. "What's wrong, Zitong? Is it not to your liking?"

"No, breakfast is very plentiful, but I don't know your eating etiquette, or where to start eating."

What are the rules for dining?

Why bother with rules when you're at home?

Shen Yanran looked at Gu Zitong, who seemed a little awkward, and said patiently, "Tongtong, there are no rules in this house. Just take whatever you like at the table. Let me peel an egg for you to try. It's a free-range egg from the countryside, and it's very nutritious."

As he spoke, he reached out to grab the eggs from the bowl.

But Li Zhanting stopped him, and then said in a deep voice, "He's already eight years old, he has hands and feet, let him make what he wants to eat himself."

He never said he ate a single egg peeled by Shen Yanran, so why should that brat Gu Zitong get the benefit?

He's already being extremely tolerant by letting him stay in the house; it's impossible for him to expect his wife to serve him meals.

Gu Zitong used to live on the floor of his uncle's house, eating cold, hard, and even slightly moldy food. Now, he can sit at the dining table like a normal person and eat with people he likes and trusts. He finally realizes how good it is to be alive.

Knowing that Li Zhanting didn't like her very much, she didn't dare to make him angry, so she obediently picked up her chopsticks and silently lowered her head to eat.

Shen Yanran gave Li Zhanting a disapproving look, "Look at you, you scared Tongtong."

"He's not as fragile as you think," Li Zhanting replied coldly.

Then he took another egg and placed it in front of Shen Yanran, saying solemnly, "Since this is your first time peeling an egg, you have to let me eat it first."

What do you mean by "first time peeling an egg"? It's not like she's never peeled an egg before; it's just that she rarely ate them when she was with Li Zhanting.

Shen Yanran didn't do anything. Instead, she repeated what he had said about Gu Zitong to him, "You have hands and feet too, why don't you peel them yourself?"

Li Zhanting said matter-of-factly, "Because I want to eat the ones my wife peels for me."

As he spoke, his dark eyes remained fixed on Shen Yanran, as if he wanted to eat her, not the egg.

Shen Yanran didn't want Li Zhanting to do anything inappropriate for children in front of Gu Zitong.

She quickly picked up an egg, peeled it for Li Zhanting, and put it in his bowl.

Li Zhanting said with satisfaction, "Thank you, wife."

After saying that, he glanced at Gu Zitong and started eating with a smug look on his face.

Shen Yanran was truly exasperated by him. He was a father himself, yet he still tried to steal an egg from an eight-year-old child.

After finishing breakfast, Li Zhanting went to work.

Shen Yanran then took Gu Zitong to the psychologist recommended by Lu Ming.

The psychologist, Tian Huizhen, is an expert in child psychology. She had learned a little about Gu Zitong's past from Lu Ming, so she prepared her questions before meeting him.

Although Gu Zitong agreed to see a psychologist as promised by Shen Yanran, he was very resistant to it.

He didn't show it in front of Shen Yanran, and even actively cooperated in answering the psychologist's questions.

After a short while, Tian Huizhen paused her questioning, looked at Gu Zitong, then at Shen Yanran, and said softly, "Mrs. Li, excuse me, could you please step outside for a moment so that I can talk to Tongtong alone?"

Not wanting to interfere with the doctor's treatment method, Shen Yanran immediately agreed, "Okay."

Gu Zitong immediately grabbed Shen Yanran's hand, looking reluctant, and said, "Aunt Yanran, I'm scared, please don't go."

Shen Yanran gently touched Gu Zitong's slightly cool hand and said softly, "Tongtong, don't worry, Auntie will wait for you at the door and won't go anywhere."

Having no other choice, Gu Zitong had to let go and allow Shen Yanran to leave.

For the rest of the time, only Tian Huizhen and Gu Zitong were in the room, and the atmosphere instantly became a little awkward.

Tian Huizhen continued with her questions, but Gu Zitong became less enthusiastic in answering. At first, she answered casually, but gradually she only answered what she wanted to answer, and in the end, she simply stopped talking.

Tian Huizhen wasn't angry. This wasn't the first time she'd encountered a child like this, and she was prepared.

She held the questions she had prepared in advance and said slowly, "Tongtong, you are just a child. You don't need to put so much pressure on yourself. You can tell me whatever you're thinking, and I promise I won't tell anyone."

Gu Zitong gave a sweet smile and said, "Dr. Tian, ​​I have no burden. I'm fine."

After staring at him intently for two seconds, Tian Huizhen smiled and said, "Alright, since you don't want to talk about it, I won't force you. But you still have to help me with something: a small test."

In order to leave this strange place as soon as possible and see Shen Yanran sooner, Gu Zitong took the test paper from Tian Huizhen and started writing the questions.

On the surface, this test involves creating some interesting pictures, but its true purpose is to examine the test taker's mental state.

This also makes it easier for her to understand some of the issues deep in Gu Zitong's heart.

This test usually takes about half an hour to complete, but Gu Zitong finished it in less than half the time.

It's clear that he's much smarter than she imagined.
