The mysterious CEO's endless pampering

Just like when she was taking care of Gu Zitong in the hospital, Shen Yanran found a fairy tale book on her phone and read it to him.

Li Zhanting sat next to Shen Yanran, quietly keeping her company.

It looks like a warm and cozy family of three.

Gu Zitong also felt this dazed feeling, as if she really regarded Shen Yanran as her mother.

Except for the seemingly indifferent "father" who was a bit out of place.

Gu Zitong wasn't sleepy at all; he just wanted Shen Yanran to stay with him like this, and he could easily get his wish by showing a little weakness.

Even though Li Zhanting seemed very unhappy, there was nothing he could do.

Just then, the sound of a baby crying suddenly came from next door.

Shen Yanran and Li Zhanting immediately became tense.

"Tongtong, you lie down and rest. I'm going to check on your little brother and sister." After saying that, Shen Yanran hurriedly ran to the nursery next door.

Ningning didn't know what was wrong. She was sleeping soundly, so why did she suddenly start crying? This scared Shen Yanran. "Baby, be good. What's wrong? Why are you crying? Let Mommy hold you."

Twins are often said to have a telepathic connection; if one cries, the other will soon follow suit.

Li Zhanting followed closely behind, picked up his daughter, and together with Shen Yanran, comforted the two pitifully crying little ones.

Shen Yanran carefully touched the foreheads of the two children to make sure they didn't have a fever, and her anxious heart was relieved.

For babies who are not even a year old, the biggest worry is that they will get sick.

After a while, perhaps feeling the familiar embrace, the twins gradually stopped crying.

Shen Yanran was heartbroken. After carefully observing them and finding nothing else wrong, she thought that they might have been having a nightmare, which was why they woke up crying.

It was already past midnight when I finally got both kids to sleep.

Shen Yanran was also too sleepy to keep her eyes open, so she decided to stay in the nursery and sleep with the children. "It's late, you should go to your room to sleep. I'll stay here with them."

Li Zhanting gently took his daughter from the bed and held her in his arms, saying, "Let's take them back to our room to sleep. It'll be easier for us to take care of both children together."

Shen Yanran nodded gently, "That's fine."

So the two of them gently carried the twins back to their own room to rest.

Shen Yanran was probably too tired, and soon she fell asleep with the two children.

Li Zhanting was also behind Shen Yanran, gently holding her soft body, and gradually fell asleep.

Because of what happened yesterday, Aunt Chen was so scared that she couldn't sleep well all night. She didn't even dare to go out to help when she heard the child crying.

But by the next day, she still felt that hiding like this wasn't a good idea.

So I got up before dawn, cleaned the entire apartment inside and out, and then started preparing breakfast.

Actually, the apartment has always been cleaned by hourly workers, and Mrs. Chen only needs to take care of the two children.

Perhaps fearing that Shen Yanran would fire her for not taking good care of the child, she tried to find ways to prove herself elsewhere.

After all, such a high-paying job in a study is a rare opportunity, and she has to hold onto it.

In the master bedroom, Shen Yanran was brought to her senses by each of her two babies giving her a "spit kiss".

When she opened her eyes, she saw two adorable little faces that were almost identical, with bright smiles, and her heart was completely melted by their cuteness.

Shen Yanran also gave the twins' soft, rosy cheeks a deep kiss, "Mommy's little darlings, why are you up so early?"

The twins seemed to have completely forgotten about the nightmare they had last night. As long as they were with Shen Yanran, they were as happy as little angels.

Shen Yanran played with her two children on the bed for a while before remembering that she still had to go to work.

Just then, Li Zhanting came out of the bathroom after taking a shower. "The water's still warm, why don't you take a shower too?"

Shen Yanran was so tired last night that she forgot to take a shower. She also felt a little uncomfortable. "Okay, the babies are in your care."

Gu Zitong's body had developed a biological clock, and he would wake up shortly after dawn.

He didn't sleep well that night either.

Because Shen Yanran ultimately left to take care of her own child, he felt jealous at that moment.

But he couldn't show it.

He didn't leave until he felt it was about time, then changed his clothes and came out of his room. He slowly walked to Shen Yanran's door, gently knocked, and said, "Aunt Yanran, are you awake? May I come in?"

No one answered from inside the room, but the door opened.

Unfortunately, it wasn't the person Gu Zitong wanted to see, but someone he disliked. "Uncle Li?"

Holding his daughter, Li Zhanting asked indifferently, "Is there something you need?"

Gu Zitong subconsciously took two steps back and said, "I... I'm fine, I just wanted to come over and say hello to Aunt Yanran and you."

Li Zhanting didn't want Gu Zitong to enter the room. "My wife is taking a shower. If you're hungry, go to the dining room first."

Gu Zitong stood stubbornly at the door and said, "It's okay, I'm not hungry yet, I can wait for Aunt Yanran."

Li Zhanting looked at the boy, who was only about the same height as his legs, with a deep gaze and said coldly, "Gu Zitong, if you want to stay in this family, you need to know what you should and shouldn't do. I don't want to repeat myself."

The implication was that if there was a second time, he would be kicked out of the house.

Gu Zitong knew that Li Zhanting was very capable and kept his word, so he dared not disobey him any longer. "Okay, I understand. I'll go to the restaurant to eat."

When Shen Yanran came out after taking a shower, she saw Li Zhanting carrying the child back from the door. She assumed he was playing with his daughter and didn't think much of it.

When Gu Zitong arrived at the restaurant, Aunt Chen had already prepared everything.

But the first person she saw was Gu Zitong, the one who had caused her to get a scolding last night. She was furious. "Why is it you?"

Gu Zitong pretended not to see the disgust in her eyes and asked innocently, "Can't I come to the restaurant?"

In front of Shen Yanran, Aunt Chen naturally wouldn't dare to say anything about Gu Zitong, but now that it was just the two of them, she naturally wanted to vent her anger. "You little brat, how dare you come out and eat my cooking? If you hadn't caused such a scene last night, would I have been scolded by Madam?"

She came to this family to take care of the two children, and everything had been peaceful until she blamed Gu Zitong for causing her trouble.

Gu Zitong curled her lips and sneered, "Whether I eat your cooking or not is fine with me, but you stole so many good things from Aunt Yanran last night. What do you think she'll do when she finds out?"

"What nonsense are you talking about? I didn't steal anything from Madam!" Aunt Chen looked at the eight-year-old child in disbelief. She hadn't expected him to have such sharp eyes that he could even tell that the food she was eating was good stuff.

Gu Zitong slowly walked to the seat next to Shen Yanran and sat down. Then she said calmly, "It doesn't matter if you don't admit it. Anyway, we know what's in the refrigerator. We'll check it out and find out everything."

After a quick thought, Mrs. Chen pretended to be serious and said, "It's true that there's a limit to what's in the refrigerator, but what I eat is either about to expire or not fresh, to avoid waste. Even if you really tell Madam, I'm not afraid!"

Gu Zitong really underestimated this Aunt Chen, who gave her a good excuse.

However, he was absolutely certain that Aunt Chen hadn't just been stealing expensive fruits or supplements; she must have done something even more outrageous.

For example, stealing things and selling them...

He had only been working in the house for two days and hadn't had time to notice yet.

Aunt Chen also seemed to sense that Gu Zitong was different from other eight-year-old children. If he discovered her secret, not only would she lose her job, she might not even be able to stay in Haicheng.

She needs to quickly find a way to get rid of Gu Zitong, this scourge, from this house.

I wonder if Madam Li has ever been back to China. If she comes, Gu Zitong definitely won't be able to stay.

She no longer needs to live in fear.

Shen Yanran and Li Zhanting carried the child out of the restaurant and immediately noticed that the atmosphere was a bit off. "Aunt Chen, Tongtong, what's wrong with you two?"

Upon hearing Shen Yanran's voice, Aunt Chen's expression immediately changed, and she said, "It's nothing, Tongtong and I were just chatting."

Gu Zitong nodded in agreement, "Yeah, let's just chat."

Shen Yanran thought about how Aunt Chen treated Gu Zitong last night, and how she could chat casually today. It seemed that Gu Zitong had taken her words to heart.

After placing the child she was holding into the high chair, Shen Yanran said to Gu Zitong, "Let's eat. After we finish eating, I'll take you to school."

This was something she had planned long ago; it was better than letting Gu Zitong stay at home all the time.

go to school?

Gu Zitong's dim eyes suddenly lit up. "Aunt Yanran, is what you said true? Can I really go to school?"

"Of course you can. Haven't you always wanted to go back to school? I've already spoken to your old school, and you can go back today. However, you've missed more than a year of classes, so you might have to repeat a year."

Gu Zitong is not afraid of repeating a grade. As long as he can go back to school, he believes that he will be able to catch up with the coursework.

Li Zhanting originally planned to have Xu Fan take Gu Zitong to school, but Shen Yanran was worried about his mental state and wanted to speak with the school teachers herself.

Seeing Shen Yanran's insistence, Li Zhanting had no choice but to agree.

With Shen Yanran accompanying Gu Zitong to school, he was very happy the whole way.

Upon arriving at the school, Shen Yanran first met with Gu Zitong's new homeroom teacher, "Hello, Teacher Tang, I am Gu Zitong's parent. I brought him here to register today."

Tang Yun nodded, "Yes, I know. The principal told me about Gu Zitong's situation. It's so pitiful that the child lost his father at such a young age. The school will definitely take good care of him, so you can rest assured and leave him to me."
