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

"Your mother is drunk and can't stand up straight."

Jiang Ji's wary expression was all too obvious. Huo Wang offered an explanation.

Jiang Ji didn't say anything, and quickly packed up her and her mother's things. She followed Huo Wang closely.

"Where's Uncle Wang? He's Mom's assistant, why isn't he with her?"

Jiang Ji asked cautiously.

"do not know."

How could Huo Wang know? He had only been out for a short while when he encountered Jiang Zhuhua, who was drunk and incoherent.

"Wait a moment, I'll call Uncle Wang."

Jiang Ji had a sixth sense that something was off. Huo Wang and his mother were being too ambiguous. He didn't like it at all.

"Uncle Wang is Mom's assistant, so he should take care of her."

Jiang Ji emphasized this point.

The call was answered shortly after it was made, but it was a woman's voice.

"Hello, I'm Assistant Wang's assistant, my surname is Jiang. How can I help you?"

"Where's Uncle Wang? My mom is drunk, why isn't he with her?"

Jiang Ji stared at Huo Wang, her eyes no longer showing any of the sweetness she had shown before.

"You must be the young master. Well, the boss gave us the day off, so we're not here... Hey, why are you grabbing my phone?"

There was a lot of noise on the other end of the phone, and then someone else started speaking.

"Young Master, where are you now? We've been drinking and it's inconvenient for us to drive. Do you have anyone you can trust with you? I'll come over now and take a taxi to send you home."

This voice was even more unfamiliar, and it belonged to a man. He sounded rather unreliable and didn't seem very composed.

Jiang Ji clenched his fingers, hesitated for a moment, and then looked at Huo Wang again.

"I'm with Huo Wang. I'll have Uncle Wang call Mom tomorrow morning. Huo Wang will take us home."

Huo Wang stood to the side and listened to the whole thing, rolling his eyes without any hesitation.

"Thanks for the invitation. I didn't mean to hurt you. But now I want to spank you."

This little rascal, we were having a sweet meal together just a while ago, and suddenly he's treating me like a bad guy.

Huo Wang could probably understand; the kid probably thought he was trying to take his mother away from him. And that was definitely the gist of it.

But he doesn't lack a mother.

Huo Wang was lost in thought, while Jiang Zhuhua slept soundly.

"If you hit me, I'll hit you when you're old. When you're too old to stand, I'll kick your wheelchair."

Jiang Ji's face was serious, and he spoke with exceptional seriousness.

"Alright, alright. These days they're all smart wheelchairs, I can press the brakes myself. Let's go, it's getting late. Don't you have to go to kindergarten tomorrow?"

Huo Wang freed one hand to hold Jiang Ji's hand, secretly relieved that he had been exercising regularly. Otherwise, he would have been in a real mess.

Such a group is really inconvenient to appear in public, but fortunately there is a special passage that leads directly from the hotel's back door to the parking lot, where we can drive away.

Huo Wang carefully placed the person in the back seat, and Jiang Ji nimbly climbed into the back seat, sitting close to Jiang Zhuhua.

The car drove smoothly, and Huo Wang didn't make any unnecessary movements.

Do you have any honey at home?

Huo Wang asked questions as he drove.

"Have."

Jiang Jihui.

"it is good."

When Huo Wang first came to Jiang Zhuhua's place with Jiang Ji, it was quite different from what he had imagined a girl's place to live.

There aren't many warm-colored items; the decor is minimalist, and most of the items are exercise equipment and children's items.

Huo Wang gently placed the person on the sofa. The sofa was large, so there was no need to worry about the person falling off.

"Where is the honey stored? Are your cups individual or separate? Do you have straws?"

Huo Wang looked around the room and turned on the heating. It wasn't convenient for him to go to her bedroom, so he could only let her make do here for the time being, or wait for her to wake up so he could go to the bedroom himself.

What do you need the honey for?

Jiang Ji didn't quite understand, but he still took out the cup. The refrigerator was a bit high, and he couldn't reach the honey inside.

"The honey is in the refrigerator."

Jiang Ji pointed to the refrigerator, but even standing on tiptoe, he couldn't reach it.

"Your mother drank too much alcohol; drinking some honey water will make her feel better."

Huo Wang explained as he prepared a cup of honey water with warm water and placed a straw inside.

"It's not convenient for me to go to your mother's bedroom. Could you find a blanket for her? I'll be leaving in a bit."

Jiang Ji was wary of him, and Huo Wang didn't want to be disliked.

"it is good."

Jiang Ji's own blankets were not very big because her petite mother always gave her small blankets.

So he went to his mother's room to find a bigger blanket.

Huo Wang, holding a cup of honey water, half-squatted beside the sofa: "Jiang Zhuhua, wake up, drink some water before you go back to sleep."

He lowered his voice. Jiang Zhuhua felt like there were mosquitoes buzzing in his ear, and shook his head impatiently.

"Have some water. It won't take much effort."

Drinking too much will make you feel terrible tomorrow. Your stomach will be upset too. Huo Wang could see her impatience, but he still insisted that she drink some.

Jiang Zhuhua struggled to open his eyes and saw his mouth opening and closing repeatedly, as if he were saying something.

It was so annoying. I didn't want to think at all. I struggled to get up from the sofa.

His index finger and thumb extended out, forming a small pincer shape, and grabbed his lips, pulling them into a duck-like shape.

"Shut up."

Jiang Zhuhua said irritably, while trying to pick up the cup with his other hand, but his hand wobbled and he didn't have the strength.

"feed me."

Jiang Zhuhua spoke with a cold expression.

Huo Wang was forced to mute himself, and following the other person's lead, he decided not to argue with the drunkard. He reached out and shoved the straw into the other person's mouth. Jiang Zhuhua drank half-heartedly. His eyelids felt as heavy as if they were glued together.

It even gave me the feeling that I wanted to plunge headfirst into the water.

"Don't drink anymore."

Jiang Zhuhua mumbled incoherently, then spat out the straw, let go of his hand, and fell straight onto the sofa.

The sofa is soft, so it won't hurt if you fall on it.

Huo Wang rubbed his mouth; Jiang Zhuhua had used quite a bit of force, and his mouth felt a little sore. Jiang Zhuhua had at least drunk half a glass of water, so that was about it.

Jiang Ji dragged a heavy quilt out of the room. Huo Wang put the cup on the coffee table and helped cover him with the quilt.

"Call me if anything happens in the middle of the night."

Huo Wang didn't stay long; after quickly dealing with the situation, he prepared to leave. Before leaving, he gave one last instruction.

"You should go to bed early too, and don't open the door to strangers. If anything happens, be sure to call me, understand?"

Huo Wang was a little uneasy about the drunkard and the seemingly helpless child. However, it wasn't appropriate for him to be there, so he could only give them repeated instructions.

"understood."

Jiang Ji has studied it many times.
