Transmigrated as a vicious stepmother, I raised a child who became a heartthrob.

This sounds like a kidnapping. Jiang Zhuhua opened his phone almost without hesitation and saw a familiar name.

Huo Wang.

The other party even included a photo. After school, Jiang Ji went to the repair shop and was squatting in a corner catching Tie Dan's dog tail to play with.

Jiang Zhuhua rubbed his temples, feeling a headache coming on. Not long ago, this person wasn't good at socializing, but now, Jiang Ji has already started hanging around the repair shop.

Is there some hidden gem at this repair shop that Jiang Ji likes so much?

I have work to do and can't leave. Could he stay with you for a while?

Jiang Zhuhua really can't leave. The company not only has artists, but also live streamers. One of the top streamers had a problem with the product he was promoting.

Most importantly, the streamer's agent failed to act, only reporting the matter after things had already gotten out of hand.

Adding to the recent tensions, there's even a rumor circulating online that their entire company sells this kind of stuff.

I'd like to treat you to a meal.

Jiang Zhuhua and his assistant Wang were both unavailable, and Jiang Ji didn't know anyone else. After dropping Jiang Ji off today, Assistant Wang went back to the company to work overtime.

"Give him some money for food; your son is hungry again."

Huo Wang sent a voice message immediately, his voice sounding almost like he was laughing. The background music was noisy, with people discussing the model numbers of the parts.

Jiang Zhuhua transferred 20,000 yuan directly.

I'll pick him up once I've finished my work here. Thank you.

Huo Wang accepted it without hesitation. His gaze then fell on the person in the corner, fussing over their silly dog.

What's so charming about this silly dog? How did it manage to so easily win over this child?

This silly dog ​​had kidnapped other people's children before, but those children would usually be taken away the next day, and after being disciplined by their families, they would never come back.

They usually won't be lured over by that silly dog ​​a second time.

I don't know what the kid was thinking, he actually followed that silly dog ​​again.

"Hey kid, come here and see what you want to eat? Your mom asked me to get you something to eat."

Huo Wang didn't know the child's name, or whether he took his father's or mother's surname. He just called the child by his name.

Jiang Ji looked around and saw that he was the only child there, with Tie Dan rubbing against his bottom, urging him to come this way.

Jiang Ji was a little afraid of this adult; he was too tall and looked fierce. His arms were thicker than his thighs.

But he still mustered up his courage and walked this way.

“I can order it myself. My mom gave me pocket money.”

Jiang Ji came here just to play with that little dog. After school today, the dog came to loiter under the window again. A white, fluffy thing.

"Just order whatever you're told."

Huo Wang pushed the food delivery page directly in front of him.

Jiang Ji carefully took the phone, swiped it a few times with her finger, and then handed it back.

Nothing was marked on it; it remained perfectly clean.

Huo Wang raised an eyebrow.

"Unappetizing."

The pictures didn't look very appealing, and although Jiang Ji was hungry, he wasn't interested in the food just by looking at the pictures.

He turned on his phone, mustered his courage, and felt that since he had stayed there for so long, he should treat them to something to eat.

That's how it's done on TV.

"My mom and I went to a private chef restaurant, it was delicious, I'll treat you to dinner."

Jiang Ji clicked into someone's page in the software, his eyes still filled with anticipation.

"alright."

Huo Wang looked at the page of his food delivery app, which had everything from barbecue and grilled cold noodles to hamburgers, chicken wraps, cola, and milk tea.

I don't know what it is about this child that he doesn't like.

Logically speaking, children should really enjoy eating this kind of thing.

Jiang Ji made a phone call directly.

"Hello, is this Xihe Hotel? My surname is Jiang."

Jiang Ji picked up the dishes she wanted to eat immediately after hearing what was said on the other end of the phone.

"A serving of sweet shrimp, almond tofu, stir-fried lamb with scallions, and a sweet soup."

After Jiang Ji ordered the dishes she wanted, she looked at Huo Wang and handed her phone to him.

"What would you like to eat? You're so tall, I'll order you a whole roasted lamb, is that enough?"

Jiang Ji remembered seeing a whole roasted lamb before; it was huge, enough for the giant in front of him to eat.

Huo Wang raised his finger and pointed to himself, somewhat incredulous. A whole roasted lamb, weighing dozens of kilograms.

But then he glanced to the side, keeping an eye on the group of brothers over there.

"alright."

At worst, he could use the money he just received to pay the bill. How expensive could a whole roasted lamb be?

Huo Wang sent someone to buy beer. They'd already ordered meat; how could they not have beer?

Huo Wang had been wondering how expensive a sheep could be when he saw a vehicle coming in a grand procession, complete with its own grill and tools for roasting lamb.

A person dressed in a tuxedo stepped out of the car, carrying an exquisite jewelry box. They were also wearing white gloves, and a bad premonition suddenly arose in my mind.

That group of people really didn't seem to fit in with this repair shop.

"Hello, Mr. Jiang."

The leader had clearly seen Jiang Ji before, and immediately headed straight for him.

"Your order has arrived. The whole roasted lamb is not yet cooked and will take a while."

It's only been a little over an hour since we ordered, and everything else is already ready.

Those people even unloaded a table from the car, laid out an elegant tablecloth, and arranged the small plates and dishes from the lunchboxes.

The items weren't large, but each one looked exquisite and seemed to be glossy.

Jiang Ji looked at the things on the table, then at the group of uncles who had gathered around. He realized that he seemed to have ordered too little food, and the sheep wasn't ready yet.

He stood somewhat bewildered beside the table. Should he share these things? It seemed a little impolite, but he was also very hungry.

"What are you looking at? Have you finished applying the car wrap for the customers? And you, the one who puts rhinestones on the car, how much have you done? Do you think you can take away a bite of their food? You're eyeing the kids' bowls."

Huo Wang noticed this, stood up, and shooed the group of unsophisticated people aside.

Although he had never seen such a lavish display before, it didn't stop him from chasing away the others.

Jiang Ji breathed a sigh of relief, took out a delicate little spoon from the tableware, and pushed the plate of almond tofu in front of him.

"This is sweet and delicious."

As he spoke, he used a small soup spoon to serve himself sweet soup.

Huo Wang scooped up a piece of almond tofu; it was so delicate and smooth that it almost felt like it would slide right down his throat. The taste of almond milk lingered in his mouth.

Wow, is this what it feels like to be rich? Huo Wang suddenly realized he couldn't stand the food on food delivery apps anymore.

Delicious, exquisite, and stylish. Suddenly, even a repair shop doesn't seem worthy of this meal.

The portion is a bit small, but he can just taste it and that's enough. He won't actually fight with the kids for the food.
