“If you’re going to buy the villa, then I’ll hang around before going back to school. Moving house is quite a hassle, and I can help out with some of the heavy lifting,” Bai Susu said.

Moving house would indeed be troublesome.

They had a lot of stuff, and of course, there were things like selling furniture and so on, all of which would be heart-wrenching for one person to handle alone.

But couldn’t she help out a little as well?

“Alright, by the way, you need to have a hospital check-up in a few days. Do you want me to go with you?” Ye Fan said.

After the confinement period, a hospital check-up was due.

Time had flown by, and the month of confinement was nearly over.

Regardless, it’s still safer to have a medical check-up at the hospital.

“It’s fine, I can go on my own when the time comes. You can focus on looking at the villa!” Bai Susu said, resting her hands on Ye Fan’s shoulders and leaning her face against his.

Is this what happiness feels like?

Feels so warm inside!

“Alright, if you’re uncomfortable with me going, I won’t accompany you. I’ll just stay at home and take care of the kids,” Ye Fan said.

He understood that Bai Susu’s reluctance to let him accompany her was mostly out of shyness; hence, he decided not to press the issue.

Their relationship was just beginning to blossom, and he did not want to push her too hard.

It might make her uncomfortable.

Taking care of the children at home was also an option.

But was it okay to leave the kids alone with the robot?

Better not think about it, having himself there was more reassuring.

“Mm-hmm,” Bai Susu nodded with a cheerful smile.

Now, she seemed rather clingy, quite unlike the cold, imposing beauty from school.

Ye Fan found himself liking this transformation even more.

After all, her previously cold demeanor had made her seem unapproachable.

Now, she was like the bright sunlight of April: radiant and gentle.

Bai Susu had changed a lot.

And Ye Fan liked this new her even more.

“Okay, it’s getting late; I’m going to cook. We’ll have dinner early,” Ye Fan said, and he stepped out of Bai Susu’s bedroom.

Watching Ye Fan’s retreating figure, Bai Susu recalled her actions moments before, and her cheeks instantly flushed with heat. She had indeed been daring.

She had actually initiated a hug with Ye Fan.

This was the very first time she had voluntarily gotten so close to a boy.

For some reason, she felt secretly thrilled and a little overwhelmed.

Perhaps this was what love felt like.

Gazing at her children, her eyes brimmed with the radiance of maternal love.

Children, your dad is a very good man.

Ye Fan entered the kitchen, opened the refrigerator, and saw there were still plenty of ingredients.

With his culinary skills rewarded by the System, cooking was no challenge for him.

Quickly, he washed the rice and set it to cook in the rice cooker.

He started peeling the lotus roots and took out the ribs to soak…

He planned to make a lotus root and pork rib soup, stir-fry some spicy cabbage, and cook stir-fried pork strips with green peppers. Two dishes and a soup should be enough for the two of them.

There was no point in making too much if they couldn’t finish it all.

Soon, Ye Fan became busy in the kitchen: chopping vegetables, washing them, blanching the ribs, and then frying them briefly before adding water to cook the rib soup.

Delicious!

Smelling the aroma, Ye Fan started to feel hungry.

And he then got busy with the other dishes.

The children in the room had all woken up.

The four little ones stared at the two robots, making ‘ooh ooh ooh¹ sounds, not quite understanding what they were saying, their wide-eyed gazes extra bright, their little faces as tender and soft as freshly hatched eggs.

Seeing this, Bai Susu’s heart swelled with satisfaction and pride.

These were her treasures.

So smart and lively.

“Oh, the young master is awake!”

“The young master is hungry.”

The round and chubby robots said to the two adults and four children, their blue eyes twinkling as they glided toward the outside.

Bai Susu looked on with some confusion, thinking, was her child hungry?

Why hadn’t she noticed?

The child wasn’t crying; wasn’t he just learning to speak with those cooing sounds?

How did the round and chubby ones conclude the baby was hungry?

Bai Susu followed them out and saw two robots preparing formula, then getting hot water from the drink dispenser.

This scene astonished Bai Susu even more!

For the round and chubby ones to prepare baby formula, that was just awesome!

She had never heard of such robots.

Once again, Bai Susu’s understanding of robots was renewed.

Soon, the round and chubby robots had the formula ready and came back to the children.

Holding a bottle in each hand, they began feeding the children.

Bai Susu was not worried because the bottles were exactly those Ye Fan had brought back, the kind that automatically recognized temperature. They had used these bottles many times and were well accustomed to them.

But could robots also recognize these things?

As she watched the children gulping down the formula, Bai Susu’s eyes were filled with shock.

The round and chubby robots were like two on-demand nannies, so capable.

It was truly a delightful surprise!

The four little ones, while drinking their formula, stared at the two robots with eyes full of wonder.

Bai Susu smiled at the sight and turned to go to the kitchen.

Upon entering the kitchen, she smelled the delicious aroma of pork rib soup. It smelled amazing!

Ye Fan’s cooking skills were improving by the day.

[Ding dong, congratulations to the host for completing the feeding task, reward: +2 shares in Chang’an Enterprise]

[Congratulations, the host has become the second largest shareholder of Chang’an Enterprise, special reward: one commercial vehicle, complete with documents and safe to use! ]

Goodness, Ye Fan was shocked!

How come there were so many rewards.

That was just amazing.

And he hadn’t done anything.

“Ye Fan, your cooking skills are getting better and better, it smells delicious!” Bai Susu said, standing next to Ye Fan with a beaming face.

She was truly happy to have a boy like him all to herself.

“If you like it, that’s good. Where are the children?” Ye Fan said with an embarrassed smile.

He really wanted to know what had happened and how he had suddenly received so many system rewards.

“The kids are having their milk. By the way, those two robots you brought back are really something. I can’t believe they know how to make formula and even feed the babies. They are incredible!”

“Where did you buy them from? They’re truly impressive!”

“I’ve noticed that the babies seem to really like Round and Chubby. The little ones just keep staring at them.”

“With Round and Chubby, these two smart Butler robots, we can save ourselves a lot of trouble!”

Bai Susu looked at Ye Fan, her pretty lips moving non-stop as she spoke excitedly.

Ye Fan watched, wanting to kiss her, but he held back.

He couldn’t scare Bai Susu!

Otherwise, he would have nowhere to cry.

Patience pays off; he would get his chance eventually.

“Ye Fan, what’s the matter, what are you thinking about?” Bai Susu asked, seeing Ye Fan zoning out, a touch of concern in her voice.

“Nothing, I’m just happy,” Ye Fan said.
