If we swapped lives, I'd be the CEO and you'd take care of the kids.

The truth was too cruel; Shen Yanqiu couldn't accept it!

"What's wrong? Say something!" Jiang Wanjun was still showing off her position in Zhu Tingyue's heart. "Don't you still have ticklish spots on your body? Let me scratch them."

"What are you scratching for? Go scratch yourself!"

"I'm not ticklish, and besides, no scratching me feels as good as yours!"

Her eyes were fixed on Shen Yanqiu, making Shen Yanqiu feel like he had thorns in his back.

And today, she was unusually... well, how should I put it, she was unusually clingy. Usually, a few jokes would suffice, but today she actually made a move!

Even her eyes were different; they were exceptionally alluring today, as if she were deliberately seducing him. Shen Yanqiu got goosebumps just looking at her.

Abnormal, so abnormal!

Shen Yanqiu wanted to close her eyes and not look at her, but she was afraid that Zhu Tingyue would suddenly tickle her. She didn't even know where Zhu Tingyue was ticklish, but Zhu Tingyue knew it all!

Even with her eyes open, she's right there, her presence is so strong, you can't ignore her.

He originally wanted to find some peace and quiet, but with Jiang Wanjun around, it's hard to find any peace and quiet anymore. He might as well go back to his room!

He turned and went back, maneuvering his wheelchair.

Jiang Wanjun followed behind him, watching his back thoughtfully.

The two entered one after the other, and Zhu's mother asked with a smile, "Where did you go? Wanjun couldn't find you earlier."

Shen Yanqiu couldn't stand Zhu's mother's coaxing tone, which sounded like she was talking to a child. Otherwise, he wouldn't still be sitting in a wheelchair. If it were Madam Shen, Shen Yanqiu would have jumped three feet high long ago.

Sure enough, sweet words can easily lure people in, and he was already immersed in his mother's tenderness.

"I didn't go anywhere, just went out for a walk."

He habitually said "walk a walk," and his mother thought he really stood up and walked despite his injured foot. She immediately bent down to look at his foot and said with concern, "Does it hurt? It's not healed yet, you can't stand up and walk."

Shen Yanqiu said more than once that she was cured, but neither her father nor mother believed her, so she had to spend several agonizing days in a wheelchair.

In ancient times, people dressed their parents in colorful clothes to entertain them; today, wheelchairs provide peace of mind!

"It doesn't hurt, it doesn't hurt at all. If you don't believe me, I'll stand up and you can see."

Zhu's mother pressed him down, saying, "I believe you, I believe you don't need to stand."

Shen Yanqiu was pressed down and sat obediently in the wheelchair, while his mother pushed him toward the restaurant.

"Auntie, isn't this wheelchair electric?"

Jiang Wanjun watched as "Zhu Tingyue" pressed the button herself and the wheelchair moved away. Why does it still need to be pushed now?

"Oh, I'm worried about safety. What if Yueyue falls and hurts herself? She'll cry!" Zhu's mother explained to Jiang Wanjun.

"Yes, that's true! When she cries, it's truly earth-shattering! Auntie, do you remember? When we were little, Tingyue and I had a little argument, and we ended up arguing."

"Oh my, you have no idea, how could Tingyue possibly argue with me back then! After I left her speechless, she was so angry that she just burst into tears. The sound of her crying was deafening and echoed through the sky! Thinking back on it now, I still find that scene so funny!"

When Shen Yanqiu heard her slandering Zhu Tingyue like that, she was furious and wanted to immediately yell at her to shut up.

But then I thought about it again and realized that I was actually quite curious about what other interesting things Zhu Tingyue had to do when she was a child. So I suppressed my dissatisfaction, kept my mouth shut, afraid that I might accidentally interrupt her story. At the same time, I quietly pricked up my ears and listened intently, not wanting to miss any details.

"How could I not remember? You two were fighting over a little rabbit made of foxtail grass. You were both so small back then, you couldn't even speak clearly, yet you started arguing and chattering away. It made your mother and me laugh so hard."

After saying that, they both laughed. Shen Yanqiu also found it funny. So this is what Zhu Tingyue was like when she was little! So cute!

"Speaking of which, the worst fight I ever had with Yueyue was back in high school. I told you and Uncle Zhu about her early romance, and she broke off all contact with me in a fit of anger, ignoring me for several months!"

As Jiang Wanjun spoke, she stole glances at the person in the wheelchair. She saw that "she" was silent, listening to their conversation with her ear turned to the side. As soon as the words "puppy love" were uttered, "she" frowned.

Jiang Wanjun smiled knowingly and listened to Zhu's mother continue: "That's right, I felt something was wrong with her around that time, but before I could think about it, you came and told us. If you ask me, it's all thanks to you, otherwise she would have lost interest in studying long ago."

“I’ve met that boy a few times. His name is Xu Qingjia, right? Yueyue likes him a lot. She even got angry with her father because of him and ignored you, Uncle Zhu, for several months.”

"Your Uncle Zhu was heartbroken for a while. Yueyue even brought him back. He was quite handsome to me. But later, the two broke up for some reason, and Yueyue never mentioned it again."

The person involved is still alive!

Shen Yanqiu turned around and said to the two of them with dissatisfaction, "Can you stop talking about me behind my back? I'm not deaf or blind, I can hear and see."

Jiang Wanjun feigned surprise, opening her mouth wide: "Ah? You're here! Sorry, I didn't see you. Next time, let's try to cricket together in person."

Shen Yanqiu retorted, "Why aren't you mute?"

"If I were mute, how boring would your life be?"

She acted as if she was doing everything for Shen Yanqiu's benefit, which successfully disgusted him.

"You're overthinking it. My life is wonderful every day without you."

"No, no, no! How could you say that? Didn't you say I was your little darling? Now that you have Xu Qingjia, you don't want me anymore, right?"

Shen Yanqiu felt like she had been hit with a critical strike of ten thousand points.

The words "cutie" are far more devastating than Xu Qingjia's.

He considered himself close to Zhu Tingyue and had never uttered those three words before. How could Zhu Tingyue say such a thing to Jiang Wanjun? He never wanted to hear those words again!

Jiang Wanjun was still looking at him provocatively. Shen Yanqiu hated that he didn't have a silver tongue and couldn't use his eloquence. He turned to his mother for help, but she just smiled and watched them joke without taking sides.

"Tsk tsk, admit defeat! Hahaha!" Jiang Wanjun laughed wildly.

A good man doesn't argue with a woman, so Shen Yanqiu turned his head away and ignored her.

Mom brought over her daily soup.

Shen Yanqiu held his breath, trying his best not to smell it, but the fragrance still entered his nostrils. He suppressed the nausea that kept rising and silently took a few steps back.

"Wanjun, come and try Auntie's soup, it's so delicious, Yueyue loves it!"

Mother Zhu has already served two bowls, one for Jiang Wanjun and one for Shen Yanqiu.

Jiang Wanjun smiled and stepped forward, thanked Zhu's mother, and picked up the glass to drink.

Shen Yanqiu remained motionless, pondering what excuse he could use to push away the bowl of soup that his mother had poured out of love for, but which was of no use to his healed foot.

Don't want to drink? No way! This is a gift of love from Mom; I can't let her down!

It's not working? No way! The cast on my foot is still on, and if Mom says it's not healed, then it's not healed!

Honestly, you feel like throwing up just from smelling it? Absolutely not! Questioning Mom's standards will hurt her feelings!

Alas, life is full of difficult choices; the only option is to sacrifice oneself!

Shen Yanqiu put on a righteous and awe-inspiring look, picked up the bowl, turned his head away, took a deep breath, drank it all in one go, and quickly threw the bowl aside, not wanting to see it again!

Jiang Wanjun looked at him with complete incomprehension: This tastes so good!

I wish Mom would serve her another bowl and place it on the table.
