New Year's Day.
Wen Yan'an excitedly knocked on Fang Miaomiao's room door.
After a long time, a sleepy, muffled sound came from inside.
"Good morning, Mommy."
Fang Miaomiao stuck out a hand from under the covers to greet Wen Yan'an before retracting it.
"Mommy, didn't we agree to go out and play together?"
New Year's Day was a three-day holiday.
"Then, is your dad's work finished?"
Wen Yan'an nodded. "Dad said Uncle Fang is handling everything, so Dad doesn't need to worry much. He just needs to play with us."
As he finished speaking, the phone on the bedside table rang.
"Mommy, it's Aunt Mantong calling."
Fang Miaomiao waved her hand outside.
Wen Yan'an quickly handed the phone to Fang Miaomiao.
Fang Miaomiao peeked out and answered, "Hello, Mantong."
"Miaomiao, by the sound of it, you haven't gotten up yet?"
Fang Miaomiao coughed dryly. It wasn't her fault, it was because of someone. She had originally wanted him to sleep with An'an, but instead, he would sneak into her room every night after An'an fell asleep.
Every time, it left her completely exhausted.
And he even said they'd get married later.
Everything that should have been done was done, and it was just a matter of the final step.
Indeed, Wen Zhiyan was not to be trifled with.
"It's fine, I stayed up late last night."
"Quick, quick, get up, we're all about to board the plane."
"Okay, we'll see you at the hotel."
Fang Miaomiao hung up the phone and, after a moment of recovery, waved to Wen Yan'an.
"Mommy, are you awake?"
Fang Miaomiao nodded. "I'm awake. Where's your dad?"
"Dad is making breakfast. I've also packed my things."
"My An'an is so good. How can An'an be so good?"
"Hehe, because Mommy and Daddy are good."
"Good boy, go play. Mommy needs to get up."
"Mhmm."
"Wen Yan'an, why are you in Mommy's room again?"
Fang Miaomiao blushed when she saw Wen Zhiyan.
"I wanted to see Mommy."
"Breakfast is ready. Let's go eat."
"Mhmm."
After closing the door, Wen Zhiyan strode towards Fang Miaomiao.
Fang Miaomiao instinctively covered her mouth and looked at Wen Zhiyan warily. "What are you doing?"
It was early in the morning, and he hadn't even brushed his teeth.
"Be good." Wen Zhiyan bent down and placed a kiss on Fang Miaomiao's forehead. "I won't tease you."
"That's more like it." Fang Miaomiao waved her hand. "You go out, I need to wash up."
"Okay, go ahead."
After Fang Miaomiao quickly washed up, Wen Yan'an had just finished eating.
"Mommy, eat breakfast, then we'll go find Brother Sisi to play."
"Okay."
Two hours later, the three of them boarded a plane to J City.
As soon as they got off the plane, a biting cold hit them.
Wen Yan'an, unaccustomed to it, burrowed behind Wen Zhiyan.
"Cold?"
Wen Yan'an nodded.
After Fang Miaomiao took the small suitcase, Wen Zhiyan bent down and held An'an in his arms. "Be good, we won't be cold once we get back to the hotel."
"Okay."
They arrived at the hotel by car.
Warm air filled the entire lobby, a paradise compared to the outside.
"Daddy, it's so warm in here!" Wen Yan'an exclaimed in surprise. "It's like the air conditioning!"
"Let's go, into the room."
The three of them were staying in a presidential suite with two beds and a living room, with everything they needed.
"An'an, you and Mommy stay in the hotel. I'll go find Cui Mantong and Sisi to come up."
He also wanted to discuss some business with Cui Tong.
Fang Miaomiao waved her hand.
After waiting in the hotel for a short while, the doorbell rang.
Wen Yan'an ran to open the door, his eyes lighting up when he saw Sisi and Cui Mantong at the entrance.
"Hello Aunt Mantong, hello Sisi."
"Oh, my An'an is getting more and more handsome!" Cui Mantong bent down and petted Wen Yan'an's head. "Where's your mommy?"
"She's sitting on the sofa."
"Let's go find your mom."
"Ahhh, Sister Mantong."
Cui Mantong gave Fang Miaomiao a hug.
Wen Yan'an also pulled Cui Yongsi to play to the side.
"Where's Wen Zhiyan?"
Cui Mantong pouted. "Don't even mention him. I don't know when it started, but Wen Zhiyan's relationship with Cui Tong has progressed by leaps and bounds. They're discussing something in a hotel room right now."
"When did their relationship get so good that they can spend time together under the same roof?"
Cui Mantong shrugged. "Who knows? Anyway, they're acting all mysterious. Sisi and I got bored, so we came to find you and An'an."
Fang Miaomiao's eyes twinkled. "Then let's not mind them. Let's take Sisi and An'an out to play."
"That's a great idea." Cui Mantong said, waving towards the two men in the distance.
The four of them played outside for an unknown amount of time. When they returned to the hotel, they saw two men standing at the entrance.
Cui Mantong raised an eyebrow when she saw her husband. "Oh, have you two finished your business?"
Cui Tong stepped forward and took the bag from Cui Mantong's hand. "Wife, I was wrong. I shouldn't have neglected you."
As he spoke, he glared fiercely at Wen Zhiyan. It was this man who said they needed to discuss some cooperation.
He wasn't paying attention for a moment and got so engrossed that by the time they finished their discussion, his wife and son were gone.
"Actually," Cui Mantong said with a smile, walking past Wen Zhiyan and linking arms with Fang Miaomiao, resting her head on her shoulder. "Miaomiao and I have decided that tonight, she and I will stay together. The two kids will be your responsibility."
Wen Zhiyan and Cui Tong exchanged a look and said in unison, "No."
"You don't have the right to object," Cui Mantong said, then grabbed Fang Miaomiao and hurried towards the elevator.
Wen Zhiyan and Cui Tong looked at the two children clinging to their legs, silent.
They just discussed some cooperation, how did it turn out like this?
Isn't the direction of this matter wrong?
"It's all your fault. If it weren't for you, my wife wouldn't have gone out with your wife," Cui Tong said unhappily to Wen Zhiyan.
"Have some shame. This business is something you're interested in too," Wen Zhiyan said with a complex expression. "Besides, it was your own wife who went after her."
Cui Tong crossed his arms, his eyes filled with disdain. "If you're so capable, go and snatch your wife back."
Wen Yan'an and Cui Yongsi exchanged a glance, then hand in hand, they left the two childish men and walked towards the elevator.
By the time the two realized it, the elevator doors had already closed, and people around them were talking.
"You're so annoying. Every time I run into you, nothing good happens."
Wen Zhiyan scoffed and walked away.
Cui Mantong hugged the fragrant Fang Miaomiao and said coquettishly, "Miaomiao, I love hugging you like this so much. How about we don't go on that couples' reality show with those two stinky men?"
"There's a sisters' reality show that's looking for us. Let's participate in the sisters' reality show," Cui Mantong said, her eyes shining.
Fang Miaomiao heard this and couldn't help but laugh and cry. "Wouldn't that be bad? Chen Tianming might scold us on Weibo."
