Quan Jue picked up a napkin and slowly wiped away the crumbs at the corner of Chi Jiao’s mouth.
“Daddy, have you eaten breakfast? Let’s eat together?” Chi Jiao smiled shyly at Chi Mingwei.
Auntie Zhou happened to walk into the dining room now. When she saw Chi Mingwei, her eyes lit up.
“Sir, you’re back. Have you eaten breakfast? There’s still seafood porridge in the pot. Let me help you get a bowl,” Auntie Zhou said with a smile.
Chi Mingwei nodded, pulled out a chair, and sat down. His gaze landed on Shen Xing, who was still engrossed in eating.
Shen Xing didn’t have the time to look up at him. It was just a merciless eating machine.
“Who is this?” Chi Mingwei asked.
“Daddy, this is Shen Xing, who will be staying with us for a period of time. Shen Xing’s status is rather special. I’ll explain to you later.” As Chi Jiao spoke, her gaze landed on Shen Xing. “Little Xing, say hello.”
Shen Xing finally looked up at Chi Mingwei at her prompt.
“Hello, Uncle.” There was still rice stuck to the corner of its mouth. Its smile was exceptionally obedient and radiant.
Looking at Shen Xing, Chi Mingwei thought of Chi Jiao’s younger days. His impression of Shen Xing soared and he asked with a smile, “How old are you this year?”
“Five,” Shen Xing answered in a childish voice.
Chi Mingwei nodded.
This child looked to be only five or six years old.
Jiaojiao had just said that this child’s status was special, so he didn’t probe further. Instead, he turned to look at Chi Jiao. “Jiaojiao, I might be going on business trips very often during this period. You and Quan Jue will be at home. You have to take good care of yourself.”
With Chi Jiao’s secret backing, his company had been developing at lightning speed these days. Its assets had increased several times.
Countless people were seeking to work with his company. There were so many orders that he didn’t even have time to sign them.
At this rate, the company would be publicly-listed in two years.
This was why he had been so busy recently.
Chi Jiao knew what he was busy with. Seeing that her father was in high spirits, she couldn’t help smiling. “Dad, don’t worry and just do what you need to do. Don’t worry about us. Brother Quan will take good care of me.”
“Take good care of Jiaojiao, understand?” Chi Mingwei immediately looked at Quan Jue.
Why did his precious daughter trust this brat so much?!
Quan Jue nodded.
Chi Jiao and Quan Jue were almost done eating. It was time for them to go to school.
Before leaving, Chi Jiao specially instructed Shen Xing not to leave the house. Shen Xing obediently agreed.
After they left, Chi Mingwei returned to his room to rest. Only Shen Xing was left in the living room.
Sitting on the sofa, Shen Xing’s eyes darted around.
Even if it went out to play for a while, it should be fine, right?
…
When they reached class, Chi Jiao walked straight to her seat.
Chi Jiao put her school bag in the table’s cubby hole and looked at the breakfast on the table. She reached out and nudged Xu Ye, who was playing a game.
“Is this breakfast yours?” Chi Jiao asked.
“I brought it especially for you. Eat it before it gets cold.” Xu Ye’s game had just reached a critical juncture.
Therefore, he only glanced at her hurriedly before turning his attention back to his phone screen.
“I’ve already eaten breakfast.” Chi Jiao shifted the breakfast onto his desk..
