After being reborn, I became the big boss's darling.

The next day, when Ci woke up, she had just picked up her phone when a message popped up.

Tang Zhi: [Image]

【Baby, do you miss me?】

The picture shows two plane tickets from the UK to city A.

Upon seeing it clearly, Ji Nianci's expression changed from sleepy to surprised, and she immediately jumped out of bed.

【Ahhhhh, Zhizhi, you're back?】

Yes, isn't that amazing? You'll be able to see me soon!

[Oh, what a surprise! I missed you so much! Oh, by the way, did you come back with your partner?]

[...What do you mean, "my husband"? He's just a tool for carrying luggage.]

It was followed by an eye-rolling emoji.

Ci laughed out loud, remembering how witty her daughter Zhizhi was.

Tang Zhi was her college roommate. At first, the two weren't friendly, finding fault with each other constantly. But the longer they spent together, the more compatible they became. They went from being at odds to becoming inseparable best friends. Two years ago, after graduating from university, Tang Zhi was sent to study in the UK by her family, but now she's finally back.

At this moment, Shen Ceyan pushed open the door and saw her sitting on the bed holding her phone, grinning foolishly. He asked, "What's wrong? Why are you laughing so happily? Come down and have breakfast when you're awake."

When Ji Nianci saw it was him, she immediately got out of bed and ran to him, her eyes shining with joy.

"Honey, I have something to tell you. Zhizhi is back! Let's go pick her up in a bit."

Shen Ceyan raised an eyebrow: "Tang Zhi? What about that kid Shi Xubai? He's back too?"

"Oh right, and him too, they came back together."

"Okay, I'll pick you up in a bit. Look at you, getting out of bed without shoes. What if you catch a cold?" With that, he picked up Jinianci and placed her on the bed. Then he half-squatted down, held her slender white ankles, and gently put her shoes on.

"Oh dear, why bother catching a chill in the middle of summer?" Ji Nianci stood up, shuffling towards the bathroom in her slippers, humming a lighthearted tune.

Shen Ceyan smiled helplessly; this girl always managed to come up with a reason to stop him.

……

Airport in City A.

The airport was bustling with people, and a woman on the loudspeaker announced flight schedules in a standard announcer's voice. When the plane from London landed in City A, passengers poured out.

A woman with wavy hair and a beautiful face walked out of the VIP entrance. Her tall and slender figure, along with her elegant and composed demeanor, made her particularly eye-catching.

Beside her stood a tall, handsome man with a touch of unruliness and nonchalance on his face, a faint smile playing on his lips.

As soon as Tang Zhi stepped out of the airport, she saw Ji Nianci running towards her from a distance, waving at her.

Her smile deepened, and she quickly walked over.

The two hugged each other tightly.

"Zhizhi, I missed you so much! You're finally back." Ji Nianci's eyes crinkled, and her dimples appeared on her face.

"I missed you so much, baby. As soon as I finished my work over there, I flew back right away." Tang Zhi cupped her face, wishing she could kiss her a few times right away.

Shi Xubai, carrying a large suitcase in each hand, caught up with her after a few seconds.

Seeing the smile on Tang Zhi's face, his mood brightened a bit.

His gaze passed over the two people in front of him, who were deeply in love, and looked behind him.

The man relaxed slightly and leaned against the car door.

Shi Xubai shouted, "Shen Ceyan, what are you doing? Standing there showing off? Come over here and help me carry this box."

The man frowned slightly, clicked his tongue softly, but did not refuse: "Here it comes."

"Zhizhi, let's get in the car quickly." Ji Nianci pulled Tangzhi's hand and walked towards the car.

On the way, Tang Zhi sat in the back seat, looking at the scenery outside the window, and sighed, "It's still better to be home."

"What's wrong? How are you doing over there? Is it not good?" Ji Nianci looked at her and tilted her head to ask.

"No, it's great. I have a little helper by my side who can do everything and I don't have to worry about anything. It's so comfortable." Tang Zhi leaned back in the car seat and squinted slightly as she spoke.

Xiaogongdu Shi Xubai: "?"

"Are you planning to go back this time?" Shen Ceyan asked casually, one hand on the steering wheel.

Shi Xubai rolled his eyes and said with a smile, "I listen to my wife. If she wants to go back, I will."

"Get lost, who's your wife?" Tang Zhi rolled her eyes at him.

Shi Xubai turned to look at her, a playful smile on his lips: "I was talking about my wife, not you."

"Shi Xubai, you..."

"Oh dear, alright, alright, you two haven't changed at all. How come you start arguing over just a few words?" Ji Nianci said helplessly. These two were still the same as before.

"Tch, I can't be bothered with him. Niannian, I'll tell you about my experiences in England when we eat later."

"Okay, okay."

Shen Ceyan led them to a rather secluded private restaurant.

The restaurant appears unassuming from the outside, but inside it's like a classically elegant painting, with every detail revealing a rich cultural heritage. The various designs and layouts are exceptionally pleasing to the eye.

As expected, Shen Ceyan's choices were always excellent.

As soon as the group sat down, Tang Zhi immediately started chatting with Ji Nianci.

"I only have one professor for my major courses, he's quite young and handsome. Once, he was revising my thesis in the study room, and I was sitting next to him listening to him. Just then, Shi Xubai came to pick me up to go home. I was sitting quite close to that professor, and from his angle, it looked like we were practically touching. Then he immediately rushed over, pulled my professor away, and punched him hard, making his nose bleed." Tang Zhi sighed as she spoke, her face full of speechlessness.

"No... hahahahaha..." Ji Nianci laughed until tears streamed down her face: "And then, what happened to that teacher?"

"What could I do? After he finished hitting me, no one around dared to speak. I was stunned too. It took me a while to remember to pull him away. He was still not satisfied and said he wanted to give this bastard two more punches. Then I told him that he was my teacher."

Tang Zhi paused for a moment, then continued, "The very next day, he brought a whole bunch of gifts to apologize. Don't you think that person is stupid?"

"What are you doing? Just state the facts, why are you making personal attacks?" Shi Xubai touched his nose, condemning her behavior.

Shen Ceyan looked at him with a hint of disdain: "Only you could do something like this."

"Hey, no, how was I supposed to know that was your teacher? I thought some guy was going to molest you. How could I stand for that? I rushed at him without thinking, and you didn't even try to stop me." Shi Xubai felt it was necessary to defend himself.

Tang Zhi laughed at him: "How could I stop you? You just rushed forward like you were on drugs."

Shi Xubai: "..."
