Chapter 72 Heartwarming Daily Life
Chapter 72 Heartwarming Daily Life
Butler Li has always been good at managing staff. Ever since Shen Xi moved to the villa, whenever he sees the young master and young mistress together, he always sends someone out to plant flowers.
The flowers in the outer courtyard seem to be blooming even more profusely.
Today was no exception. After seeing his wife off, Butler Li noticed something was off when he returned. He immediately called all the servants out to plant flowers.
The remaining servants and Butler Li stood in a row.
……
After kissing Jiang Ci, Shen Xi lazily let Jiang Ci cover his eyes and held him in his arms. "Jiang Ci, I didn't expect you to be so good at this."
He hooked her up, leaving her in a limbo.
"Really? Maybe it's because I... have a special talent."
Jiang Ci's voice was very magnetic, and his duality was completely revealed to the woman in his arms.
He removed his hand from her eyes and gently patted her slender waist. "It's getting late, I'll go upstairs and change my clothes."
Jiang Ci was still wearing that gray loungewear, looking very refreshed. He didn't have his usual slicked-back hairstyle for work; his wispy bangs were scattered messily in front of his forehead, giving him a rather well-behaved, youthful look.
This is somewhat at odds with his aloof and refined demeanor.
Shen Xi thought for a moment, "Why don't I go upstairs and change into something too?"
Seeing Jiang Ci go upstairs, Shen Xi put away the painting and followed him upstairs.
She went to the room, placed the painting on the easel, and let it air dry.
Shen Xi turned around and looked at the wardrobe in the corridor that led to her bedroom. All the clothes here had been completely replaced since the day she moved in.
It goes without saying who was behind it.
She went inside and glanced at the tags on the outside of the wardrobe. There were many categories, such as formal dresses and skirts, with very detailed labels.
Shen Xi held the black and gold label, glanced at the words on it, and couldn't help but chuckle. Given Jiang Ci's personality, didn't he think it was a waste of his time to do all this?
She thought for a moment, then suddenly smiled.
Shen Xi picked out a super short JK uniform, paired with an apricot-colored sweater, and was only missing some tights to complete the look.
Shen Xi searched for a long time in her wardrobe for "bare leg" tights, but couldn't find them in either the pants or socks categories.
She glanced at the label with a puzzled look.
Is it because there are no leg-baring devices available?
That won't do. In late autumn, especially at night, the temperature difference between day and night is extreme. Without tights, you'll freeze to death if you go out.
Just when Shen Xi was about to give up, her eyes inadvertently swept over the label, and suddenly she paused.
There are even leg covers underneath. I didn't expect Jiang Ci to be so fashionable.
She flipped through them and sure enough, the bare-leg magic material was placed on the other side.
……
When Xiao Jiangdu went downstairs, he saw that neither his parents were there. He frowned and looked suspicious. Could it be that his father had stolen his mother away?
He walked up to Butler Li with a worried look on his face, tilted his head and asked, "Uncle Butler, have you seen where Mommy went?"
Butler Li glanced upstairs and said, "The young master and young mistress went upstairs just now, probably to change their clothes."
Xiao Jiangdu nodded. "Thank you, Uncle Butler."
He sat on the sofa in his overalls, waiting obediently for them to come down.
Not long after, the sound of someone coming downstairs could be heard.
Xiao Jiangdu immediately looked up and took a closer look.
Oh, it's Dad.
He looked away in disappointment.
After all, he was the child he had raised. Seeing the little guy turn his head away without looking back, the old father felt a pang of sadness.
He glanced around, then sat down next to the child, watching him play with a Sudoku machine with his head down.
This is a toy that Jiang Du likes to carry in his pocket.
Are you happy that Mom is back?
After regaining his memory, Jiang Ci couldn't stop thinking about Shen Xi, to the point that he realized he was neglecting his son's feelings.
Xiao Jiangdu looked up from the Sudoku machine, his clear black and white eyes fixed on his father, and said earnestly, "She is my mother."
At first, Jiang Ci didn't understand what the child was trying to say.
Xiao Jiangdu added in a low voice.
"She is my biological mother."
Jiang Ci suddenly understood. The child was saying that he knew Shen Xi was his biological mother. He stroked the child's soft hair and whispered, "She is your biological mother. Daddy has found her for you."
Little Jiangdu nodded earnestly, blinking his big eyes, "Thank you, Daddy!"
As soon as Shen Xi came downstairs, he saw this scene of a loving father and filial son.
"Xiaoman is so cute."
Shen Xi walked to Xiao Man's side, picked him up and kissed him.
Today, the child was wearing the cargo pants that Shen Xi had bought for him before, paired with a black shirt. He looked cool and adorable, which melted the heart of this mother.
These little figurines are so cool and cute!!
Not long after, Shen Xi, who was holding the child, also noticed Jiang Ci's unconventional outfit.
Black hoodie paired with jeans.
Ignoring Jiang Ci's lingering gaze, he was definitely the epitome of a man today!
Jiang Ci looked at Shen Xi's exposed legs, which were only covered by something resembling stockings, and said in a slightly hoarse voice, "It's cold tonight, change into something else."
If she hadn't spent so much time with Jiang Ci these past few days, she would have really thought that Jiang Ci just thought she was cold.
Shen Xi coldly rejected him, saying, "There's heating in the car, and it's usually very hot when you eat hot pot."
Jiang Ci didn't say anything upon hearing this, but he took a thick black coat with him when he left.
When the family of three arrived at the hot pot restaurant, it was packed with people.
Outside the hot pot restaurant, colorful neon lights and bright lettering are particularly eye-catching and dazzling, proclaiming it as the first store in Beijing.
Clearly, this shop is very experienced, which explains why so many people come here.
Jiang Ci frowned slightly and said to Shen Xi, "Wait here for me for a moment. Be careful not to bump into anything in this crowd."
He casually draped the coat he had been carrying over his arm over Shen Xi's shoulders, covering her securely, then turned to the child and said, "Take care of yourself and your mother."
Seeing his father go inside, Xiao Jiangdu held his mother's hand tightly, his big eyes warily scanning their surroundings.
Shen Xi felt that the little guy was simply her heartwarming treasure!
A moment later, Jiang Ci strode out.
He was followed by two staff members in suits.
They all had smiles on their faces. "Mr. Jiang, Mrs. Jiang, Mr. Zhou has reserved a private room for you on the top floor. Please come here."
Two staff members led them in through another entrance, and they took the elevator directly to the top floor.
Shen Xi was truly amazed; how could a hot pot restaurant have such intricate social customs?
When they entered the private room, they found a refined and cultured man sitting on the side of the room.
It is the Zhou rites.
Shen Xi stared wide-eyed in surprise, "Aren't you the man who delivered my divorce certificate the other day?"
Jiang Ci hadn't expected this, and a chill ran through him.
Zhou Li was clearly not expected this either. He secretly cried out in dismay, but quickly forced a smile and said, "Sister-in-law, what are you saying? Even if I were short of money, I wouldn't deliver packages."
"You might be meeting someone else who looks just like me."
Zhou Li lied through his teeth, but he never betrayed his good friend or his nephew Xiaoman, no matter what.
Comrade Xiaoman gave him a grateful look, then immediately pretended not to know him.
Zhou Li: "..."
Good, good, good! Both father and son are excellent actors.
