Jun Shiling had never made anything with flour. Everyone could clearly feel that in the beginning, Jun Shiling did not even know how to make dough.
However, not long after, Jun Shiling seemed to have been enlightened. His movements were smooth, comparable to a professional chef.
The sunlight shone through the eaves and landed on Jun Shiling’s handsome side profile. He rolled up his sleeves and focused on pinching the bun in front of him. His eyes were deep and his aura was heavy. In an instant, it made one feel that he was making a perfect piece of art.
[So handsome, so handsome, so handsome. I’m already tired of saying it.]
[I’ve already kicked my lazy husband out of bed. Sisters, do you think I did the right thing?]
In the attic, Xia Wanyuan had already gotten out of bed and was playing with the cat at the bottom of the stairs. Xiao Bao ran over and pointed at the child passing by the door. “Mommy, his car is so beautiful.”
Xia Wanyuan took a look. The little boy outside the door was sitting on a dilapidated tricycle.
It was no wonder that Xiao Bao found it novel. After all, to the young master of the Jun Corporation, according to the normal trajectory, he would never come into contact with something like a tricycle in his life.
Xiao Bao looked outside. That small car looked very fun.
Xia Wanyuan stroked his head. “Mommy will make one for you later. Don’t let your father know.”
“Really?!” Xiao Bao’s eyes lit up.
At that moment, heat rose from the kitchen. Jun Shiling walked out with a steamed bun. Seeing Xiao Bao’s guilty expression, he frowned. “What are you saying?”
Xiao Bao covered his mouth with his hand and blinked. “I didn’t say anything!”
Jun Shiling glanced at him. “Come and eat.”
“Okay!” Xiao Bao ran to the table and reached into the steamer. However, Jun Shiling slapped the back of his hand.
“Daddy, what are you doing?” Xiao Bao retracted his hand, feeling extremely aggrieved. There was a red mark on the back of his hand.
Jun Shiling did not reply. He took out a bun and placed it in his bowl. Then, he used his chopsticks to pick up the outer skin. The heat inside gradually seeped out.
After cooling it for a while, Jun Shiling opened half of it with his hand. He estimated that it was not that hot before handing it to Xiao Bao. “Take it and eat.”
Xiao Bao was happy. He took a bite and his mouth was filled with fragrance. The back of his hand did not hurt anymore. Xiao Bao excitedly planted a kiss on Jun Shiling’s face when he was not paying attention. “It’s so delicious.”
Jun Shiling took a tissue and wiped the oil mark off his face. He looked at Xiao Bao in disdain. “Your mouth is filled with oil.”
Xiao Bao smiled foolishly at Jun Shiling.
Jun Shiling did not want to see this silly son anymore. He took a bun and went to look for Xia Wanyuan.
Xia Wanyuan was sitting on a small stool, looking thoughtfully at the nest of bamboo in the courtyard.
]Jun Shiling walked over and kissed her on the cheek. “Baby, what are you thinking about?”
Xia Wanyuan came back to her senses and looked at the bun in Jun Shiling’s hand. She opened her mouth at him. “Ah ~”
Jun Shiling smiled and tore off a piece to feed Xia Wanyuan. “Is it delicious?”
“Mm, CEO ~” Meeting Jun Shiling’s hinting gaze, Xia Wanyuan changed her words in time. “Of course it’s delicious! It’s madeby my hubby.”
Jun Shiling was pleased by this “Hubby”. He reached out and fed Xia Wanyuan another mouthful of food.
“Baby.” Xia Wanyuan was about to open her mouth to bite when Jun Shiling suddenly spoke.
“Huh?” Xia Wanyuan replied.
Then, a heart mosaic was pasted on the live-stream. In the distance, Xiao Bao, who was happily chewing on a bun, reached out and covered his face again.
[ Director, are you not treating us as family? At least we’re members. Is there anything my noble VIP can’t see? ]
[… Don’t be like this. I died on the spot when you called her baby.]
[I’m dumbfounded. Their children are already so old, but they’re still so clingy. Are you serious?]
Five minutes later, the heart mosaic disappeared. Xia Wanyuan smiled and pushed Jun Shiling. “We’re recording. Stop fooling around every day.”
Jun Shiling glanced at the camera and did not care. “We’re legal. What’s wrong?”
Everyone: No, no. As long as you’re happy. Who dares to say anything?
After dinner, Xiao Bao insisted on watching others fish. Jun Shiling wanted to reject him, but Xiao Bao’s coquettish skills had reached perfection. He kept saying, “Daddy, you’re the best.” “Daddy, can you accompany me?” Jun Shiling reluctantly agreed.
“You guys go ahead. I want to lie down for a while more.” Before leaving, Xia Wanyuan suddenly stopped in her tracks and looked at Jun Shiling. “Go ahead. Xiao Bao hasn’t seen it either. Accompany him.”
Only then did Jun Shiling pull Xiao Bao out reluctantly.
In the courtyard, Xia Wanyuan, who had just said she was going to sleep, walked into the woodshed and took out a bamboo knife.
The comments were filled with ???
[According to my years of experience living with my grandfather, isn’t this knife used to cut bamboo?]
[ Don’t tell me Xia Wanyuan knows how to do this too? I just want to ask, is there anything she doesn’t know? ]
Just as everyone had guessed, Xia Wanyuan walked straight to the bamboo in the courtyard with a knife. Wearing a pair of gloves, she quickly cut down seven tall bamboos.
Xia Wanyuan dragged the bamboo to the middle of the courtyard and cut off the leaves. The bamboo knife was stuck in the middle of the root.
With a squeak, the entire bamboo was evenly divided into two.
Xia Wanyuan did the same and quickly cut open the seven bamboos.
Then, she went to the kitchen and took out some flint. She built a fire in the courtyard and bent the thicker bamboo pieces to shape.
Everyone looked at Xia Wanyuan’s actions in confusion. Not long after, four bamboo wheels curved into a circle beside Xia Wanyuan.
There were many people around the fish pool. The villagers took a small boat and threw the net into the lake before slowly dragging it ashore.
Seeing a lively fish, Xiao Bao was overjoyed. He held Jun Shiling’s hand and jumped around, but Jun Shiling was concerned about Xia Wanyuan at home.
Coincidentally, Yang Wei and Zhang Nian heard that there was fishing and wanted to buy some fresh fish to improve their lives. They bumped into Jun Shiling and Xiao Bao.
“CEO Jun.”
“Hello.” Jun Shiling nodded slightly. He looked at the production team around him and thought that Xiao Bao should not be in any danger, so he pulled Xiao Bao to Yang Wei. “I have something on at home. Please help take care of this child.”
Xiao Bao was in a good mood and did not care that his custody had been temporarily transferred.
Jun Shiling strode back to the courtyard.
When he pushed open the door, the first thing he saw was bamboo on the ground. Xia Wanyuan was busy with something when she looked up and saw Jun Shiling. She was a little surprised. “Why are you back so early?”
As Xia Wanyuan had expected, Jun Shiling’s face darkened when he saw this. “It’s so dangerous. Why are you doing this?”
“Make a toy for Xiao Bao.” Just as Xia Wanyuan finished speaking, she saw Jun Shiling’s expression darken. Xia Wanyuan hurriedly smiled at him. “Hubby, help me.”
“…” Jun Shiling walked over with a cold expression. “You spoil him every day.”
Xia Wanyuan smiled and looked at Jun Shiling, then leaned close to his ear and whispered a few words. Jun Shiling’s expression began to improve.
Jun Shiling took the things from Xia Wanyuan. “You always do this. Can you change to something else?”
Xia Wanyuan smiled until her eyes narrowed. “This works every time. I’ll change to something else when it doesn’t work.”
Jun Shiling snorted softly and tapped his face. Xia Wanyuan kissed him with a red face. “Are you done? You’re not angry anymore?”
“Mm.” The corners of Jun Shiling’s lips curled up, and the cold aura around him was completely resolved. “What do you want to do? I’ll help you.”
[Ahhh!!! What did she say!! I’m so curious, I’m scratching my heart! Teach us how to coax CEO Jun so quickly.]
[ Cough, cough. As someone who has been through this, I dare to guess if Xia Wanyuan promised CEO Jun something, and it was something CEO Jun especially liked to do. ]
[The person in front, something he likes to ‘do’? Which one? I don’t understand. Can you tell me?]
[ Are you really not afraid that CEO Jun will assassinate you when he sees these flirtatious comments? ]
There were more and more people in the live-stream. Everyone was howling that they were about to be tortured to death while guarding the live-stream with relish, as they could not even bear to eat.
In the courtyard, with Jun Shiling’s addition, the progress was much faster.
Gradually, half of the thing under Xia Wanyuan’s hand had an outline. Everyone finally understood that Xia Wanyuan was actually using bamboo to build a car.
Furthermore, it was not a simple car that was casually wrapped with a few wooden sticks. Instead, it was a small sports car with exquisite seats.
The comments in the live-stream gradually turned into ellipses.
[… Isn’t this a love variety show?! Why do I feel like I’m watching a craft production competition?? So bamboo can be woven like this?!]
[ What kind of god is Xia Wanyuan? F*ck! Is there anything she doesn’t know? ]
[ My friends and I are all stunned. I thought that the pampered Madam Jun might not be used to living in the countryside. I never expected Xia Wanyuan to turn this place into a paradise for her to show off her skills. ]
In the courtyard, Xia Wanyuan was slowly knitting with gloves. Jun Shiling accompanied her and chatted with her, occasionally helping her wipe the sweat off her face.
By the fish pond, Xiao Bao chatted happily with the fishes for a long time. By the time he remembered to look for Jun Shiling, Jun Shiling had already left.
“Little friend, your father is home. He asked us to take care of you first. He’ll pick you up later.” Although Zhang Nian had a fiery temper, she was still very patient when facing such a young child.
Xiao Bao lowered his eyelashes in disappointment and circled his fingers. He missed his father.
However, on second thought, Xiao Bao realized that the uncle and auntie in front of him had been entrusted by his father to take care of him. He could not be insensible.
Xiao Bao hid the disappointment in his eyes and walked over to hold Zhang Nian’s hand. He looked up, his slightly curly hair stuck to his forehead with sweat, and his eyes had a dependent smile. “Thank you for taking care of me, Auntie.”
“You’re welcome.” Zhang Nian had never experienced the feeling of being relied on by such a young child in more than ten years. She was immediately charmed by Xiao Bao.
Zhang Nian and Yang Wei’s family did not earn as much money as Jun Shiling. Their living expenses today had not been settled.
Yang Wei played with the two of them by the fish pond for a while before Zhang Nian began to nag, “How do you still have the cheek to play here? We haven’t settled the money for lunch and dinner.”
“Will you starve to death if you don’t eat one meal?” Although he knew that what Zhang Nian said made sense, Yang Wei could not help but want to argue with her and refused to take a step back.
Zhang Nian still wanted to say something to him. She glanced at the wide-eyed Xiao Bao and finally swallowed her words.
Yang Wei also left with a livid expression.
Xiao Bao looked curiously at Zhang Nian, who was secretly wiping her tears, and then at the livid Yang Wei. He was puzzled. Why did these two uncle and auntie quarrel?
Xiao Bao was a little curious about what Yang Wei had done, so he secretly followed him with his short legs.
Yang Wei had retired as an athlete and lived in the city since he was young. He was not familiar with the countryside and did not know what to do to earn money. He could only sell some hard labor and help the boss of the rice shop carry the rice bag.
Xiao Bao felt that Uncle Yang Wei had worked hard, so he dug into his pocket and took out a 20-dollar bill.
Although Xiao Bao lived a rich life, he had never had much money on hand. This 20 yuan was Jun Shiling’s reward for helping him wash the dishes. Xiao Bao had been secretly hiding it in his pocket for several months.
Looking at the sweating Yang Wei, Xiao Bao reluctantly shifted his gaze away from the money. He took the money and ran to a small stall at the side to buy a bottle of water and a bottle of drink. He had 10 yuan left.
“Uncle Yang Wei, this is for you.” Xiao Bao ran to the door of the rice shop and handed the water and coke to Yang Wei.
Yang Wei was stunned. “This?”
“Auntie Zhang Nian asked me to send it to you.” Xiao Bao looked serious. No one could imagine that he was lying.
Yang Wei naturally believed him. Just as he took it, Xiao Bao ran away. However, after running two steps, he turned around. “Uncle Yang Wei, Auntie Zhang Nian said that you’ve worked hard. She loves you very much!”
On the spot, the straight man, Yang Wei, who was almost 40 years old, blushed silently. He looked down at the coke in his hand, and his eyes revealed a hint of youth shyness.
Xiao Bao had only bought it casually, so he did not know that the first time Yang Wei and Zhang Nian met, Zhang Nian had bought a bottle of coke for him, who had just left the venue. The two of them had fallen in love at first sight.
Xiao Bao jumped around and prepared to go back to look for Zhang Nian. On the way, he met a beautiful sister who sold flowers. The girl, that sold roses that were originally three yuan each, was attacked by Xiao Bao’s address of Fairy Sister.
he flower seller lost her mind and gave Xiao Bao five roses for 10 yuan.
Xiao Bao smiled sweetly at the flower seller with two dimples and blinked his big eyes. “Thank you, Fairy Sister. You’re so beautiful!”
The lady was blinded by the rainbow fart and sent another rose into Xiao Bao’s arms. “Take it. May everything be smooth in your life.”
Xiao Bao returned with a full load. He sang a nursery rhyme and was about to look for Zhang Nian when he suddenly thought of something. He bit off the branches of three roses and hid the roses in his hoodie.
Then, he ran to Zhang Nian with the remaining three sticks. “Auntie, this is from Uncle Yang Wei. He said that you’ve worked hard. He loves you very much.”
hang Nian was shocked. After being married for so many years, she had never heard Yang Wei say this. “Little friend, did your Uncle Yang Wei really say this?”
Xiao Bao widened his eyes slightly and said righteously, “Auntie, I’m a child. Children never lie.”
It had to be said that Xiao Bao’s exquisite appearance was too confusing. No one would think that such a cute little child was lying.
Zhang Nian took the three roses in embarrassment and said in disdain, “Your Uncle Yang Wei is too much. We’re already an old couple, yet he’s still playing this game. Isn’t he ashamed?”
Although she said that, Zhang Nian took the rose with a smile.
She thought of her first date with Yang Wei. At that time, Yang Wei trained every day and did not have much money, but every time he asked her out, he would buy her clothes and food.
The first time Yang Wei gave her flowers, he had given her three roses. At that time, Yang Wei had just bought her winter clothes and only had one yuan left. It was Valentine’s Day, and the girls on the street had gifts in their hands. Yang Wei saw the girl selling flowers beside him, and there were only three flowers left in the flower basket.
He simply used his last dollar to buy the last three roses in the flower basket and gave them to her.
The bright roses in their hands seemed to have washed away the estrangement and argument between them at this moment, bringing them back to the era when they understood each other and their hearts would blush.
[ Damn, why am I a little touched? I originally thought that Yang Wei and Zhang Nian’s marriage was not happy at all and was noisy, but now it seems that they were once young and their hearts had once blushed. ]
[ The little darling is really sensible. What position did she use to give birth to such a cute and sensible little darling?! ]
It was almost noon and Xiao Bao’s stomach was already rumbling. Xiao Bao touched his stomach and tiptoed to look in the direction of the small courtyard. He pouted. “Why isn’t Daddy coming to pick me up?”
Xiao Bao looked left and right. In the end, he decided not to wait and went home himself. Just as he looked up, he saw Jun Shiling and Xia Wanyuan walking over together.
Xiao Bao ran towards them excitedly and realized that there was a green sports car behind them.
The sports car was about a meter long. The body was made of bamboo strips. The main driver, the front passenger seat, and the steering wheel were all made of bamboo strips.
Xia Wanyuan even made Ultraman, Spiderman, Pikachu, and SpongeBob for Xiao Bao with bamboo leaves.
Xiao Bao’s eyes widened in joy. “Mommy, did you make this for me?!”
“Mm.” Xia Wanyuan waved at Xiao Bao. Before she could do anything, Jun Shiling had already lifted Xiao Bao up and placed him in the driver’s seat. The driver’s seat was just enough to stuff Xiao Bao in.
The car could not start on its own. Jun Shiling held a rope and walked in front. The wheels in the car rolled.
Xiao Bao grabbed the steering wheel and turned left and right. Although Jun Shiling looked impatient, he still changed directions according to Xiao Bao’s instructions.
Passing through the streets of the town, Xiao Bao’s sports car became the focus of the entire venue.
Feeling the envious gazes of the other children on him, Xiao Bao smiled until his eyes could not be seen. He cheered happily in the car.
I am the happiest child in the world!!
[Boohoo, is it too late for me to reincarnate now? What kind of mother is this? I want to take this car too.]
[ Which boy doesn’t want to have his own unique sports car when he was young? However, the difference between us and him is that his mother made it for him and our mother gave us a meal of bamboo slab pork. ]
[The person in front, let alone when I was young, I’m already in my thirties. I also want someone to make me such a small car. I’m so envious that I’m crying.]
At the entrance of the small courtyard, Xiao Bao jumped out of the car reluctantly. Then, he reached into his hat and took out three flattened roses.
Xiao Bao looked a little sad. “Mommy, this flower doesn’t look good anymore.”
My mommy deserved the most beautiful roses. It was all my fault for only playing by myself and not taking out the flowers to put them properly.
Xia Wanyuan reached out to take the flower and patted Xiao Bao’s head comfortingly. “No, I can wash my face with it tonight. Thank you, Xiao Bao.”
Xiao Bao was happy again. “Then does Mommy like my gift?”
“Of course I do.”
“Hehe, Mommy, I like the gift you gave me too.” Xiao Bao smiled and hugged Xia Wanyuan’s leg.
Xiao Bao was happy, but Jun Shiling did not look happy.
Xiao Bao pushed the cart in. Xia Wanyuan glanced at Jun Shiling and hooked his palm in amusement. She whispered, “Aren’t you embarrassed to be jealous of your son?”
Jun Shiling grabbed her hand. “Hmph.”
Xiao Bao turned around at the right time to show off to Jun Shiling. “Daddy, don’t you think the car Mommy gave me is especially beautiful?”
Jun Shiling’s mood worsened.
[Hahaha, this arrogant snort. Is this CEO Jun? Why is he a little cute?]
[If it were me, I would be jealous of the little kid too. Boohoo, this gift is too thoughtful. Who wouldn’t like such a gift?]
In the silent Nightless City,
Seeing Xiao Bao smile carefreely and seeing the gift Xia Wanyuan had made for him,
Yu Qian’s originally calm eyes suddenly rippled.
He tilted his head, his eyes filled with confusion. Why could that child smile so happily?
At this moment, the electronic sensor began to warn him. Yu Qian paused the scene.
The door opened and Jayce walked in.
“Boss, there’s a reply from the Jiang family in Beijing.”
“Oh? What did they say?” The scene in the video stopped at the moment when Xia Wanyuan gently stroked Xiao Bao’s head. The sunlight landed in her eyes, making them extremely bright.
“As you expected, the Jiang family believed us. They said that as long as we can work together to take down the Jun Corporation, they will agree to help us clear the market in Continent M.”
“Is there a woman in the Jiang family called Jiang Yun?” Yu Qian suddenly asked an irrelevant question.
Jayce was puzzled. Why is my boss, who had never been close to women, starting to pay attention to women? Furthermore, it was more than one.
“Yes,” Jayce replied respectfully.
“Oh.” The corners of Yu Qian’s lips curled up. “Jun Shiling is such an outstanding man. Isn’t it a loss to have only one wife? I think Miss Jiang is quite suitable for him.”
The scene of Jun Shiling and his family standing together was too beautiful.
And he had always liked to destroy everything beautiful.
Jayce did not know what Yu Qian’s sudden suggestion meant, so he did not dare to speak and quietly waited for Yu Qian’s next instructions.
Yu Qian looked up at Jayce. “Pass my words to Jiang Wan. She’s a smart person, so she naturally understands what I mean.”
“Yes.” Jayce bowed respectfully and retreated.
The room returned to calmness.
Yu Qian let go of the pause button and laughter came from the screen again. The sunlight shone on them with a warm temperature, but the laboratory outside the screen was as cold as ice.
