Chapter 1899: Same Routine, Different Result
"Alright, there won't be any problems. Hurry back now; you're more long-winded than my mother."
Zihan quietly sent a message to Zirui, asking him to help hold back that eyesore of a man and to keep him from coming over for no reason.
The next day.
Early morning.
He Han did not come over to install surveillance as he had said; instead, he apologetically called Yuanyuan to tell her he would be a bit busy these few days and couldn't make it.
"Alright, no problem, you go ahead and get busy." Yuanyuan expressed her full understanding and even asked if He Han needed any help.
"No need, I can handle it myself. It's just that I won't be able to help you, I'm very sorry."
The two were on the phone, and Zihan heard it all from the kitchen. He was incredibly happy inside; Zirui was truly reliable, his efficiency was high, and he hadn't left a single trace of evidence.
He would make it so that when someone looked for trouble, they wouldn't even know who was behind it!
With He Han unable to come and stir up trouble, the rest of the stage was his.
Breakfast was very sumptuous.
A table was set with bowls and plates of all sizes. Since the two children ate breakfast at kindergarten, only Tian Yuanyuan was eating breakfast.
The breakfast was a mix of Chinese and Western: millet porridge, vegetable buns, cold dressed side dishes, milk, bread, sandwiches, as well as fried bacon, vegetable salad, milk pudding...
"You made too much; it's impossible to finish, it's such a waste."
"Alright, I'll pay attention next time."
"Where are the leftovers from yesterday?"
"I dumped them."
"Dumped them?"
Tian Yuanyuan's voice rose several degrees: "You're too wasteful, aren't you? You dumped so much food; even if my family had a mountain of gold, it couldn't withstand you squandering it like this..."
She took a few banknotes out of her wallet and handed them over: "This is your pay for the last two days. You don't need to come tomorrow."
"Please don't fire me. Can you deduct my pay instead? I'll change, I'll definitely change!" Zihan pleaded.
He truly couldn't recall what he had done wrong. Was he being fired just because he made a few extra dishes?
That shouldn't be right.
His brain spun rapidly; he pleaded while trying hard to think about where the problem lay.
It had been so difficult, he had put in so much effort to rightfully stand by her side; he didn't want to be fired just like that.
"Fine."
Tian Yuanyuan finally relented.
"You can stay, but if you're going to be a nanny in my house, you have to follow my rules. You can't act on your own and do whatever you want. Can you do that?"
Zihan agreed readily: "Yes, yes, yes, I can do all of it. Don't you worry."
Tian Yuanyuan took out a stack of paper and handed it to him: "These are the rules of my house. Memorize them all; I'll test you when I get back."
Sheng Zihan:...
For a moment, he seriously suspected he had been recognized.
It was too targeted.
But Yuanyuan's expression was as serious as could be; it didn't look like she had recognized him at all.
Fine, he would memorize them.
In order to stay, Zihan could agree to any demand.
"Okay, I will memorize them."
Tian Yuanyuan left for work, and he let out a sigh of relief.
The two children gathered around: "Auntie, we'll help you."
"Yeah, we memorize things really fast. Every time we make a mistake, Mommy makes us memorize things. If we work together, we can memorize it in no time."
They were truly his own flesh and blood; at a critical moment, they knew how to look out for him.
The little bit of grievance in Zihan's heart vanished instantly, and he happily let the children help him.
However, the little ones had conditions too: the condition was not to go to kindergarten and to stay home and play for the day!
Little children didn't really like going to kindergarten; Zihan didn't like it when he was little either. He should have refused, but he agreed.
If they didn't go, they didn't go. It was just as well to stay home and play with the children for a good day.
So he called the kindergarten and lied, saying the two children weren't feeling well today and wouldn't be coming.
Without having to go to kindergarten, staying at home was like a fish leaping in the vast sea, or a bird flying in the high sky.
The two little ones cheered and jumped for joy, running all over the house in their pajamas, scattering toys everywhere!
Sheng Zihan followed behind the children's backs to tidy up. Before long, he was so tired he couldn't straighten his back, but when he looked closely, it seemed like it had no effect at all!
The destructive power of small children is always surprisingly astonishing.
Zihan rubbed his aching waist, thinking about how difficult it must be for Yuanyuan to raise two children alone.
It was too hard for her. In the future, he would definitely treat her well and never let her down again.
Zihan had a way to make the children quiet down.
He took out his trump card—that stack of rules—and said to the two children: "You have to keep your word. Didn't you say you were going to help me? Why are you playing by yourselves?"
Little children have abundant energy, but they also keep their word. They had just been too happy and forgotten, but now that they were reminded, they immediately sat down to prepare to help him.
Although they said they were helping, in reality, they couldn't recognize the characters on the paper at all.
The bold words they had just spoken were now impossible to fulfill. The two children's eyes rolled around, and after a simple discussion, they immediately had a good idea.
Swish, swish, swish.
The two of them started happily tearing the paper to play with. By the time Zihan wanted to stop them, it was already too late.
The paper had already been torn into tiny shreds.
After tearing it up, Qiqi and Wenwen stood before him, blinking their large eyes innocently as they said, "It's fine now, you don't have to memorize it."
Sheng Zihan wore a mournful expression; just because it was gone didn't mean it was fine.
They were fine, but his situation was serious; he shouldn't have trusted the two children so much. What was he supposed to do now?
If he couldn't recite it from memory, wouldn't he be kicked out?
Qiqi patted his little chest and guaranteed, "Don't worry, you won't be kicked out. I'll tell Mommy that I was the one who tore it. At worst, I'll get a spanking, and you won't have to memorize this stuff either, so you'll have time to play with us."
Wenwen said, "If Mommy spanks Qiqi, I'll cry right next to them and plead for him. Mommy loves us the most; she's soft-hearted, so she won't be able to bear spanking Qiqi."
They were truly twins; their rapport was innate.
Since they had a plan, Sheng Zihan stopped worrying. He gathered up the paper instead of throwing it away to use as evidence, then went to the kitchen to prepare breakfast for the children.
Although there was still plenty of breakfast left on the table, it was already leftovers and could not be given to the children; the food given to the children had to be fresh.
It had to be delicious, tasty, and nutritionally balanced.
Sheng Zihan made fresh corn porridge for them, heated up milk, made shrimp and vegetable pancakes, and also beef meatballs.
As for the leftover food, he ate it himself.
The two little ones ate very happily, exclaiming that it was delicious, and ate until their bellies were round.
After the meal.
Sheng Zihan asked the children if they wanted to go to the playground at the mall to play?
Did that even need to be asked?
The children naturally raised both hands in approval.
So he drove the children out to play, and once they were out, he forgot about the time, until Tian Yuanyuan called him to ask where they were.
Only then did he realize with a start that it was already the afternoon.
"I, we are out playing."
"Bring the children back to me immediately, now, right now, this instant!"
Sheng Zihan hurriedly took the children back, telling them on the way that Mommy was angry and that it probably wouldn't be the kind of thing that was easy to coax.
Qiqi and Wenwen expressed full confidence, "Don't worry, leave it to us."
"Right, as long as we coax her, it'll be fine."
