A soft smile returned to Jun Qingmeng’s face.

"Go on, go on, you hubby-obsessed woman!"

Jun Qingmeng left and went into Jiang Liu’s home.

The moment she walked in, she saw Jiang Liu and Tongtong lying on the sofa.

"Honey~"

she called out sweetly.

Jiang Liu smiled and said, "I washed some strawberries. Come have some."

"Coming!"

Jun Qingmeng sat down right next to Jiang Liu.

She smelled wonderful.

"Let me feed you one."

Jiang Liu picked up a strawberry and placed it in Jun Qingmeng’s mouth. Her lips were soft.

Whether it was intentional or not, Jun Qingmeng lightly sucked on Jiang Liu’s fingers.

"Thanks, honey. You’re the best. Love you!"

Jun Qingmeng formed a heart shape above her head with her arms.

’My wife is so cute.’

Jiang Liu chuckled. Not minding the saliva, he reached out, took a strawberry, and popped it into his own mouth.

"Honey, I want to feed you one!"

Jun Qingmeng fed Jiang Liu the tip of the strawberry, eating the hull end herself.

’I have to spoil my husband!’

"Let’s go see my dad on Monday at noon. I’ve already told the kindergarten that Tongtong will be absent. Will you be open for business in the morning?"

Jiang Liu nodded, thought for a moment, and said, "Sure. I’ll open for the morning, and then we can come back and get ready."

"Okay."

Jun Qingmeng hesitated for a moment, then bit her lower lip and said, "Honey, can I not go to the shop on Monday morning?"

"Do you have something to do?"

"Mommy, what are you going to do in the morning then?"

"I need to go out for a bit." Jun Qingmeng stroked Tongtong’s little cheek, then looked at Jiang Liu and said gently, "I’m going to the place I was staying before. My car is there. I’m going to drive it back."

Jiang Tongtong was surprised. "Mommy, you have a car too? That’s so cool!"

"Of course I do. How else would Mommy have come all this way to find your daddy?"

Jiang Tongtong was suddenly a little confused. "Mommy, why do you have to go back and get your car? Daddy has a car. Isn’t it better if the three of us go together?"

She wanted the family to be together.

Jun Qingmeng said in a low voice, "This time might be a little different. I want to protect you two."

’Taking Jiang Liu to see Jun Xinghe was making her nervous, so she planned to swap her current, ordinary identity for that of a female CEO. That way, it would be much easier to face Jun Xinghe.’

"Okay, Mommy."

Jiang Liu nodded but didn’t say anything.

Fearing Jiang Liu might be angry, Jun Qingmeng quickly explained, "It’s not that I think our family’s car isn’t good enough, I just..."

"I understand." Jiang Liu cut her off, raising his hand to gently brush her little nose. "After all, your dad’s status isn’t ordinary. It’s perfectly normal to want to look your best. There’s nothing wrong with that."

"Even I would want to present my best self when meeting someone important."

Jiang Liu knew Jun Qingmeng didn’t mean to look down on him. He understood his wife very well.

Jun Qingmeng was taken aback for a moment.

When she came to her senses, she happily burrowed her head into Jiang Liu’s chest.

"Honey... you really understand me so well. How do you always know what I’m thinking? Did you plant a bug in my heart?"

"That’s right. I’ve bugged all of your organs."

"Jerk! You’re never serious!"

Jun Qingmeng lightly thumped Jiang Liu’s chest, then sat up and straightened her hair.

She looked at Jiang Liu, her eyes filled with mirth.

"What are you looking at?"

"Looking at you, because you’re handsome."

"Oh, right, honey. I might look a little different then. My clothes, makeup, and style will change. Do you mind? I’ll change back to my current style when I get back."

Jun Qingmeng’s previous style of dress had been rather plain and cold, not cute and cozy like her current look.

Just like her current pajamas, which were covered in girlish little rabbits.

Jiang Liu smiled and said, "What, are you planning to transform into a superwoman CEO?"

"That’s right."

Jun Qingmeng suddenly got into the spirit of it. Her smile vanished, replaced by a cool, aloof expression. She lifted her chin arrogantly, reached out to pinch Jiang Liu’s chin, and said coolly, "You are my man. You’ll never escape from the palm of my hand in this lifetime."

"There’s ten million on this card. Go buy yourself some candy!"

"Babe, I’m on a drip toda—MMMPH..."

Jiang Liu pinched Jun Qingmeng’s lips shut.

"Go on! Keep talking."

"Mmph!"

Jiang Liu said, exasperated, "Can’t you come up with something more original? That’s way too cheesy."

"Let me talk!"

"No!" Jiang Liu continued to pinch Jun Qingmeng’s lips.

’They’re so soft.’

All three of them started laughing.

A moment later, Jiang Liu let go of Jun Qingmeng’s mouth.

Jun Qingmeng glared at Jiang Liu, her beautiful eyes puffed up in mock anger.

"You dare be disrespectful to this queen? Believe it or not, I’ll tie you up!"

She was really getting into character. "Hahaha, how can you be so cute?" Jiang Liu burst out laughing.

"You’re the cute one!"

"Mommy, all three of us are cute, but Tongtong is the cutest!"

"We know, you little cutie!"

Jun Qingmeng hugged Tongtong.

Tongtong giggled.

’She loved being hugged by Mommy and Daddy at the same time. She was so happy!’

"Mommy, you’re so, so soft. It’s so comfy."

"Tongtong is very soft too."

Jun Qingmeng placed Tongtong on her lap and pinched her little cheeks.

"Mommy, that tickles! GIGGLE GIGGLE GIGGLE."

"I’ve discovered your weakness, Tongtong."

"Huh? What is it?"

"You’re ticklish!" Jun Qingmeng said triumphantly.

Like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, Tongtong quickly waved her hands, trying to cover it up. "No, no, I’m not! Daddy is the one who’s ticklish."

Jiang Liu raised an eyebrow. "What did you just say?"

His daughter had sold her old man out in a second.

"Um, Tongtong misspoke. None of us are ticklish."

"GIGGLE GIGGLE GIGGLE! Stop pinching, Mommy, you’re mean!"

"Waaaah, Daddy, you flicked my forehead again!"

The two of them teased Tongtong for a while until she was tired, flopping onto the sofa to catch her breath.

The little cutie had fallen for their trap!

Jun Qingmeng said to Jiang Liu, "Honey, so on Monday, should I come pick you two up after I’m ready, or should I wait for you?"

"No need to pick us up. Let’s just go separately. It’ll be a waste of time running back and forth. The sooner we’re done, the sooner we can rest."

"Alright then."

Jun Qingmeng pouted. She didn’t want to be separated from Jiang Liu for even a minute.

She just wanted to stick to him.

Jiang Tongtong’s eyes lit up. "Daddy, after we see Grandpa, can you take me to play?"

"Play what?" Jiang Liu asked, deliberately putting on a stern face.

"We could go to the mall! Tongtong really wants to ride the bumper cars."

"No. I don’t have time."

"Waaah, Da~ddy, your little cutie is begging you~ Do you still love her? Is Tongtong still your favorite little treasure?"

"You definitely still love your little treasure, right? If you love her, then you have to take her out to play!"

Tongtong had already rolled out of Jun Qingmeng’s arms and was now on the sofa, throwing a cute tantrum and rolling around.

Jiang Liu suddenly laughed. "Alright, alright, of course I’ll take you. I usually want to take you out to play too, but Daddy doesn’t have the time. When I do have time, I’ll take you wherever you want to go."

’He planned to take his wife and daughter out for a walk after meeting his father-in-law. He felt very guilty. His daughter rarely got to go anywhere, and he never had time to spend with her. If there was enough time, he’d open the shop in the evening. If the afternoon ran late, he planned not to open at all. After all, if he was already flaking on the lunch hours, he might as well flake for the whole day.’

"Yay! Long live Daddy!"
