In the evening, following his dinner, Zhou Chao relaxed in the front yard’s gazebo with Shoufu. He listened to music, and the rocking chair gently swayed, creating a pleasant ambiance.

“Thud!”

The sound of the gate closing startled Zhou Chao, who had been resting with his eyes closed. He quickly raised his head and looked in the direction of the gate.

“Wife, why are you back?” Zhou Chao looked bewildered as he watched Jiang Li storm in angrily.

“1 was kicked out and sent back! Hmph!” Jiang Li was still fuming from being kicked out by her mother a while ago. She took out her frustration by kicking a nearby stone pillar.

“Ouch, that hurts!”

“Hahaha, you cracked me up!” Zhou Chao couldn’t stop laughing when he saw Jiang Li’s action.

“All ah ah, you’re laughing at me! Take this!” Without warning, Jiang Li threw her bag onto the table and pounced on Zhou Chao. Startled, Shoufu jumped away.

“Young lady, you almost ruined your future happiness by attacking me like that!”

Luckily, Zhou Chao had protected his vital areas, or else Jiang Li’s knee might have taken him out!

“Ha, it’s your lower half that would have been in trouble!” Jiang Li wanted to playfully wrestle a bit more, but when she pounced on Zhou Chao, he pinned her down, and they ended up tightly pressed against each other.

“Have you had dinner yet?”

“Not yet…” Jiang Li glanced at Zhou Chao with a pleading look, sensing the warmth of his chest against her. Worried he might act further due to his impulsiveness, he lightly patted her firm buttocks.

“Get up, I’ll make you something delicious!”

“Mua, love you, hubby!” Jiang Li hugged Zhou Chao’s head and planted a series of kisses on his lips.

“Hey, your saliva’s overflowing!”

“Deal with it!”

“Hahaha.” Zhou Chao chuckled and walked into the house, while Jiang Li lay back on the recliner. She watched as Shoufu approached her peacefully, leaped onto her, and gave her a cat-foot massage.

Shoufu caressed and massaged her voluptuous curves, and for a moment, Shoufu appeared to be thoroughly enjoying himself.

“You little pervert, are you learning from your owner?”

With her hands cradling Shoufu’s orange head and seeing Shoufu’s innocent expression, Jiang Li couldn’t help but wonder if she had just imagined things a moment ago.

“Having committed mischief and pretending to be innocent, I’ll have your owner take you for sterilization! Hehehe.” Perhaps when Jiang Li mentioned sterilization, it frightened Shoufu, who quickly escaped Jiang Li’s grasp and darted into the house.

“Is this little perverted cat so clever?” Jiang Li watched Shoufu run away and wore a puzzled expression.

“Wife, it’s time for dinner!”

“Coming!” The doubtful look on Jiang Li’s face vanished instantly as she got up from the recliner and walked briskly inside.

“Mmm, it smells so good. What did you make, hubby?” As soon as she entered the house, Jiang Li smelled a delicious aroma wafting from the kitchen, making her mouth water uncontrollably.

“It’s Zhou’s fried rice! Come and try it!” Zhou Chao emerged from the kitchen with a plate of colorful fried rice.

“Honey, isn’t this Yangzhou fried rice?” Jiang Li looked at the familiar fried rice on the dining table with a puzzled expression.

“Uh, this is an upgraded version of Yangzhou fried rice called Zhou’s fried rice!” Zhou Chao blushed slightly when Jiang Li pointed it out.

“You’re shameless!” She teased him while her hands went about their business. She immediately brought the fried rice closer and began eating with a spoon.

“Mmm, dear, it’s delicious! And it has a seafood flavor. Mm…ahem, ahem!”

Zhou Chao quickly moved behind Jiang Li, patting her back and saying, “Take it easy, eat slowly. No need to rush, and don’t talk while eating.”

“I got it. You’re acting like an old man!” Jiang Li replied, her head down while she continued eating. Zhou Chao smiled and walked to the living room, bringing a glass of warm water back for her.

“Have some water!”

“Thankyou, hubby!”

Zhou Chao sat across from Jiang Li, propping his head with one hand, silently watching her eat.

“Honey, when do you plan to go back?” Jiang Li suddenly lifted her head while still eating and asked.

Zhou Chao contemplated for a moment and then replied, “Let’s go back tomorrow. There aren’t many days left until the end of the month, and the construction in Peng City will be completed by then. I’ll be busy there for a while. Once I’m done with your affairs and return to Modu, I’ll fly to Peng City!”

“Oh.” In an instant, Jiang Li felt that the food in her bowl lost its appeal.

“If you don’t bear to part with me, you can come with me to Peng City!” Zhou Chao grinned mischievously.

“Who said I won’t bear to? 1… I just ate too quickly earlier and got a bit stuffed! Besides, I already said I don’t want to be a decorative vase!”

Seeing Jiang Li’s slightly negative mood, he quickly sat down next to her.

“If you miss me, you can come to Peng City to see me at any time. Besides, I won’t be staying in Peng City for long, and I’ll be back as soon as I finish my work.”

“Yeah!” Having understood, Jiang Li quickly finished all the fried rice in her bowl.

“Honey, have you found a nanny?”

“1 have. I asked Master Yu to help me find one, and she came to check our place out in the afternoon. She seems reliable. I told her to start working tomorrow. Once she gets familiar with things in the morning, we’ll head back to Modu in the afternoon!”

“Alright.”

“You go rest for a while. I’ll tidy up the kitchen!”

Zhou Chao cleared the dining table and then carried the dishes into the kitchen. Meanwhile, Jiang Li, with a satisfied belly, lay down on the sofa, occasionally watching short videos on her phone.

When Zhou Chao finished tidying up the kitchen and returned, he found Jiang Li engrossed in scrolling through short videos.

“Wife, let’s go upstairs and rest.”

“Carry me!” Zhou Chao looked at Jiang Li, who had the demeanor of a little girl. He crouched down and lifted Jiang Li, carrying her upstairs.

The next morning, Zhou Chao had just gotten up to prepare breakfast when he heard the doorbell ring.

“Ms. Kuang is here quite early,” Zhou Chao glanced at the time; it was just five minutes before 8 o’clock.

Zhou Chao, who wanted to head to the kitchen at first, changed course and walked to the front door.

He opened the door, and indeed, it was the nanny, Ms. Kuang.

“Ms. Kuang, you’re here!”

“Mr. Zhou, I apologize for disturbing your rest so early.”

“It’s okay, I’ve just gotten up too. Please come in!” Zhou Chao stepped aside, and Ms. Kuang entered, closing the door behind her. She followed behind Zhou Chao as he led her inside.

“Ms. Kuang, please have a seat.” Zhou Chao poured a glass of warm water and handed it to the somewhat reserved Ms. Kuang.

“Thank you, Mr. Zhou!”

“No need to be nervous. Let me tell you about your job. Normally, we don’t live here, so your main duties are cleaning and taking care of Shoufu, our big orange cat. As for your salary, we should have discussed it before. It’s currently ten thousand, and it may be adjusted in the future. Is that okay with you, Ms. Kuang?”

“No… no problem, Mr. Zhou. Your job is already quite relaxed, and the salary seems too high.”

“It’s fine. As long as you take good care of Shoufu. Additionally, I’ll give you the keys to the house and our pet store’s membership card later.”

“Then… Mr. Zhou, should I make you breakfast? You probably haven’t eaten yet!”

“Mmm, sure, make two portions. My wife hasn’t woken up yet!”

“Alright, Mr. Zhou!”

Zhou Chao nodded and then headed upstairs, while Ms. Kuang went into the kitchen. Soon, the kitchen was filled with the sounds of cooking..
