Me at two years old, a queen!

Chapter 167 You really like this new dad, right?

"Oh dear, Xiao Shu, you can't eat any more of these four-happiness meatballs. You've already had a bowl of rice and a bowl of soup tonight. If you eat any more, you'll feel stuffed."

The matriarch of the Ji family gently greeted the nanny beside her. Knowing Ji Jianshu's slight obsession with cleanliness, the nanny helped change the tableware in front of Ji Jianshu.

"Xiao Shu and An An ate very well today. They'll be going upstairs with Grandma in a little while. Grandma has prepared a small gift for you both~ I'm sure you'll like it!"

Seeing this, Lu Junxing politely declined, but was forced to accept the phrase, "One cannot refuse a gift from an elder." However, Ni Hao, standing to the side, suddenly looked up and said...

"Madam, let me help you upstairs in a bit. Xiao Shu and An An are just children, they might not be able to help you properly, and you'll have to watch them go upstairs."

When Old Mrs. Ji heard Ni Hao say such thoughtless words, especially in front of distinguished guests, she was momentarily stunned.

"No, I'm really strong! I can carry that gluttonous kid around, and my brother and I can help Grandma, right, Brother Shu?"

After the meal, the old lady of the Ji family was no longer in the mood to think about how Ni Hao should cooperate in public as a good daughter-in-law and a good stepmother. She just watched Lu Junxing and Ji Wen chatting.

He then called the two children upstairs, and seeing Ni Hao standing in the dining room, staring at him with wide eyes, he tapped the floor with his cane in annoyance.

"Didn't you say you had a piano lesson scheduled for tonight? It's getting late, you don't need to stay with me here, just go and do your thing, don't be late for your lesson!"

Before Ni Hao could refuse, he went upstairs first, while also calling to the two children:

"Oh dear~, hahaha, thank you An'an and Xiao Shu. Grandma knows you are both filial children. You don't need to help me, I can walk by myself. Just watch your step!"

"Watch out for the stairs, Xiao Shu! Keep an eye on your little sister, don't let her fall!"

Ni Hao usually doesn't live with the Ji family, but lives separately next door. She only comes over when she's with Ji Jianshu for activities or studies and it happens to be dinner time, or when she has guests like today.

Having received Old Madam Ji's words, and without even glancing at Ji Wen or offering a greeting, Ni Hao reluctantly returned to her own side.

When the old lady got tired, Ji Jianshu pulled An'an downstairs carrying a wooden box. Ji Wen, seeing the cute little girl right in front of him, happily took some fruit and asked her...

"Would you like this pomegranate, An'an? Do you want Uncle to peel it for you?"

"No need~, Uncle~, I'm really good at peeling food. Even my brother can't peel it as fast as me!"

Clutching the little gift Grandma Ji had given her, An'an sat down next to Lu Junxing and asked, "Uncle? Do you want some? I can peel it for you!"

Why didn't you ask me if I wanted some?

Hearing Lu Junxing's slightly sour words, Ji Wen looked at An'an with anticipation and said, "Yes, An'an, why did you only ask about your uncle?"

"Do you like Uncle more? Do you want to stay and play with Xiao Shu these few days? When you two are on a show together, can you come along?"

An'an was bewildered by Ji Wen's numerous questions, and she answered them one by one, counting on her fingers: "Daddy~, why are they asking you these questions?"

"Hahaha~, yes, Mr. Lu, why?"

Ji Wen couldn't hold back any longer. His child was a scholar, and this was the first time he had seen such a lively and adorable child. He sincerely praised, "Our An'an is truly a logical genius!"

An'an, who was thinking about what the second question was, was tapped on the head by Lu Junxing. She looked up and saw Lu Junxing gritting his teeth and saying, "Why do you ask me?"

"Can't I just enjoy eating a pomegranate? Huh?"

"No~, if you like it, why do you ask others? Humph~, Dad? Are you acting strange today?"

Ji Jianshu was still worried that An'an would get a beating, after all, he had witnessed Lu Junxing really hitting children when he was angry, so he quickly pulled An'an aside and reminded her not to answer her father's reckless question:

"An'an~, the second question is from my dad: do you want to stay at my house for a few days?"

"We can go to the filming location together from my house. I also have an Alaskan Malamute, but it was sent to a pet store and won't be back until tomorrow. I'm sure you'll love it!"

"Also, um... we can go to the botanical garden tomorrow. There's a tricolor tree in White Lotus City that you probably haven't seen before. We can also go to the planetarium in the afternoon..."

"Ahem~, Xiao Shu, didn't you ask me to bring a robot to An An? My assistant just delivered it, and it's sitting in the entryway."

Ji Wen was afraid that if his son continued talking, he would be beaten by Lu Junxing. He could tell that Lu Junxing was only indifferent on the surface, but in reality, he was watching An'an's every move.

Besides, it's not exactly something to be ashamed of for one's family to abduct someone else's daughter, so he pointed to the entrance hall: "You can take An'an to take a look, help activate the robot, give it a name, and teach your little sister how to operate it, okay?"

“We just played. Anan is very smart; she and Hannah get along very well!”

Ji Jianshu pretended not to understand his father's words, but An'an was still his key to deciding whether he could go to the desert to film the show again: "Besides, we still have things to discuss~"

"Yeah, that's a really big and amazing thing!"

Although An'an was also very excited to see the robot, she remembered that she was a guest today and needed to be polite and well-mannered, so she held back: "Brother Xiaoshu and I need to discuss it properly first~"

"What are you two discussing? Is there something important that you two need to discuss?"

Lu Junxing considered himself a worrywart father who knew everything about his troublesome daughter, but he had no idea when An'an had become so close to Ji Jianshu and was even having a secret from him.

"Really? Is there something we can't hear?"

Ji Wen was also curious. Ji Jianshu was usually quiet, and although they spent every day together, they didn't talk much. In addition, he was afraid that Lu Junxing would misunderstand, so he wanted to hear what the two short children could possibly need to discuss.

"We need to discuss how to find a father for Little Shu-gege~"

Seeing that Ji Jianshu didn't speak, An'an stood up and said to Ji Wen and Lu Junxing:

"But we've already found a new dad for Little Shu, and he really likes him, right, Little Shu?"
