Chapter 342: Years Pass by (V)
Her face flushed, she looked at Wen Yongwei and stammered, "Dad! What are you talking about!"

"I say! When will you and Shen Zhaoli let me hold my grandson in my arms!" Wen Yongwei shouted, "Did you hear me? How can you be hard of hearing at such a young age!"

The smile on Shen Zhaoli's lips deepened. He looked at Wen Jiao with a red face covering her ears, and thought she was indeed very cute like this.

"You're not hard of hearing! Why are you shouting so loudly?!"

"Didn't you say you didn't hear clearly? I'm just repeating it to you!"

Wen Jiao sighed and put her hand down. She silently picked up the poached egg that had fallen on the table and put it in the bowl. "Don't worry about this. You should take care of your health now."

"I know my health condition well. Forget it. You'll find me annoying if I talk too much." Wen Yongwei sighed. He put on a smile again and looked at Bian Xiao. "Xiaoxiao, are the fried eggs enough? If not, grandpa will fry you a few more."

Wen Jiao changed the subject just in time when they were talking about this topic, and said, "Dad, I just wanted to tell you that I plan to ask the chef to come back. Cooking is hard for you in your current health."

"It's not hard! I like cooking!" Wen Yongwei was anxious and said quickly: "What's wrong with you, kid! This is the only hobby I have! You don't have to worry about the company's affairs now, and there's nothing to worry about at home, so I just cook to kill time!"

Wen Jiao was choked for a moment. He felt that what Wen Yongwei said seemed to make sense. For a moment, he couldn't think of any words to refute him.

Little Bian Xiao, who had been chewing on a fried egg, blinked his eyes, put down his fork, and said, "Grandpa! You can play with Xiaoxiao! Xiaoxiao is so fun!"

These words were inexplicably adorable, and Wen Yongwei smiled again until his eyes narrowed into slits. He looked at Bian Xiao with a loving face, "Yes! Our Xiaoxiao is so well-behaved and cute! Grandpa likes Xiaoxiao the most! Xiaoxiao, grandpa will take you on an outing later, okay!"

"Okay! Then let's go together!" Little Bian Xiao ate half of the poached egg in one gulp and said seriously, "It's just right, let Aunt Wen Jiao and my uncle build up some feelings."

Wen Jiao looked at Bian Xiao in shock. How could this little guy be so precocious?

On the other hand, Shen Zhaoli, who was standing aside, had a look of relief on his face.

It really paid off that he had worked like a slave for Shen Jinci for so many years; his son was really sensible!
This kid!
It’s so well raised!

"Okay!" Wen Yongwei smiled. Bian Xiao's words hit the mark. He immediately decided, "Then after breakfast, let's go out for a walk together!"

"I'll listen to you, Dad." Shen Zhaoli said considerately, "I'll ask the housekeeper to prepare the car."

Wen Jiao looked at the other three people who were in high spirits and felt that he was out of place with them.

She silently followed the public advice and said, "Okay, let's go out."

The place for the picnic was chosen by little Bian Xiao.

At the door, Shen Zhaoli looked at the suburb that Bian Xiao had chosen and asked in confusion: "Xiaoxiao, why do you want to go so far?"

"This is a hot spring villa! Do you know anything about hot springs?" The little guy looked at Shen Zhaoli with a "Why are you so old-fashioned" expression, "Hot spring villas all have accommodations! You and Aunt Wen Jiao can soak in the hot springs together, not feel tired and can rest, how great! Moreover! This villa cannot be reached by car, you can carry Aunt Wen Jiao up!"

Shen Zhaoli was delighted.

"How do you know so much, little brat?"

"Because my dad likes to take my mom to this villa. Every time he carries my mom up there, she'll be very happy." Bian Xiao looked like a little adult. He said, "Mom and Aunt Wen Jiao are both girls. Girls need more care!"

"What about you? How do you get up there?" Shen Zhaoli joked, "This mountain is quite high."

Bian Xiao raised his eyes and glanced at Shen Zhaoli, "Of course I climbed up by myself. I'm a big boy. I don't need my dad to carry me. Besides, I'm a boy."

This boy pretends to be so delicate in front of Wen Jiao and Bian Yue, but it turns out he is really narrow-minded.

Shen Zhaoli pinched his brows and said sincerely: "Thank you so much! You really worry about your uncle!" Bian Xiao patted Shen Zhaoli's thigh, "You're welcome!"

So, the group drove to the hot spring resort.

Wen Yongwei was in high spirits and kept asking Bian Xiao on the way why he had never heard of this villa and how he discovered it.

Little Bian Xiao said calmly: "This is designed by my father and I. It is not open to the public."

The word 'together' was emphasized.

Shen Zhaoli chuckled and teased Bian Xiao deliberately, "Wait for me to go up and take a look. If I like it, I'll ask your dad to buy it."

The kid snorted coldly, "You can't buy it! This villa is under my mother's name. My mother said she would give it to me when I grow up."

Wen Jiao smiled and pinched Bian Xiao's little face, "Our Xiaoxiao has a lot of assets!"

Little Bian Xiao smiled very cutely, "If Aunt Wen Jiao likes it, Xiao Xiao can give it to Aunt Wen Jiao."

Who wouldn't like to hear this?

Anyway, Wen Jiao really likes to listen to it.

Wen Yongwei on the side deliberately joked, "What about Grandpa?"

"You can also give Xiaoxiao to Grandpa! I wish Grandpa a long life! When Xiaoxiao grows up, I will share the good things with Grandpa!"

Now even Wen Yongwei laughed out loud with joy.

Shen Zhaoli was amazed at the sight.

It was the first time he had seen a boy as sweet-talking as Bian Xiao. He couldn't imagine how good at bullying this boy would be when he grew up.

The atmosphere in the car was harmonious and pleasant until the car stopped at the foot of the mountain.

According to little Bian Xiao's plan, Shen Zhaoli should carry Wen Jiao up the mountain.

But the fact was just the opposite. Shen Zhaoli started to feel tired halfway through the climb. On the contrary, Wen Jiao and Wen Yongwei, father and daughter, walked steadily and fast. Shen Zhaoli was considered to have achieved success, as he alone dragged down the progress of everyone else.

The stone path lined with evergreen trees winds its way upwards, and from a distance it looks like there is still quite a distance to go.

Shen Zhaoli stopped, panting and waving his hands, "No more! I really can't walk anymore! You guys go up by yourselves! I need to rest!"

Wen Jiao and the other two stood in front, looking at Shen Zhaoli who was sitting on the ground below.

Bian Xiao frowned in disdain and held Wen Yongwei's hand, "Grandpa, Xiaoxiao will take you up!"

"Okay!" Wen Yongwei smiled and took Bian Xiao's hand: "Grandpa and Xiaoxiao will go up together. We won't wait for them!"

So only Wen Jiao and Shen Zhaoli were left on the mountain road.

When this mountain road was first designed, it was deliberately made flat. It only takes about ten minutes to walk from the foot of the mountain to the top.

Wen Jiao racked his brains but couldn't figure out why Shen Zhaoli died halfway.

"Brother, don't you have enough food to eat abroad?" Wen Jiao stood in front of Shen Zhaoli, his tone quite speechless.
