“Qianqian, ah~ try this. We spent two hours making it, and I haven’t even had the heart to try it myself. The first sip is for you. See how much I care about you.”

Qianqian was so touched that she leaned over and opened her mouth to drink.

Just as Nan Jiaojiao was about to succeed, a pair of hands suddenly reached out and took the spoon and bowl away.

“Don’t grab it, there’s plenty more,”

Nan Jiaojiao pointed to the glass jar.

More than half a jar, and its color was just slightly lighter than ink.

Who knows what variety of orange it was; maybe a genetic mutation caused that color.

“I’m not grabbing. Let’s finish eating first, and then I’ll take that jar back for Qingshan; he likes it.”

“But there are so many people here. I was thinking of sharing it with everyone.”

Nan Jiaojiao’s hands moved faster than her brain, and she immediately put the lid on, feeling the joy of finally finding a buyer for something unsellable for years.

“Don’t share it; it’s too hard to split,” Lu Zhenzhen said. “We each wouldn’t even get a mouthful from that little half jar. Let the kids have it; they’re growing.”

Jiang Yu was more straightforward. She wasn’t interested in coaxing kids and turned her eyes away dismissively, “I’m not testing poisons. I haven’t lived enough.”

Nan Jiaojiao automatically ignored their unpleasant comments and complained a little to Bo Yanching, “Qingshan is something, isn’t he? It’s almost dinner time and he just went back. What classmate could be so important?”

Bo Yanching shamelessly lied with a straight face, “He’s having an early romance.”

“Oh~~”

Nan Jiaojiao looked enlightened.

She tightened the lid even more, “Perfect. He and his young love can share it.”

Jiang Yu said, “Bet that young love is going to end ugly. It’s a jinx.”

Nan Jiaojiao turned a deaf ear to it.

She always had this automatic filtering skill and didn’t take it to heart, happily continuing with her meal.

Lu Zhenzhen brought three jars of Shochu Liquor when she arrived. They had only finished two, and she and Jiang Yu were already drunk, bouncing around and acting wild.

In the midst of the chaos, Bo Yanching was busy feeding Qianqian her dinner, asking, “Is this how your master acts every time she gets drunk?”

“Not always. When she’s drunk alone, she smokes silently and then works in the Medicine Garden. The next day, she forgets everything and blames me. But when she and Lu Zhenzhen drink together, they like to do stripteases.”

Bo Yanching…

He silently put down his chopsticks.

“Does someone need to stay here and watch them?”

Nan Jiaojiao shot him a sidelong glance, “I didn’t realize you were into this sort of thing. Mr. Bo, you really have a dark side.”

Bo Yanching’s expression remained unchanged, “What I meant was, it’s getting late, and Qianqian should go to bed. How should we arrange the rooms tonight? If we leave now, can they handle it without anyone watching them?”

Nan Jiaojiao pretended to be deep in thought, narrowing her eyes, almost openly suggesting, “You’re explaining, so you’re hiding something.”

Bo Yanching had a remarkable ability to handle stress, pressing, “Jiaojiao, how are we sleeping?”

She clenched her chin-supporting hand, “Let’s go.”

Jiang Yu didn’t need anyone watching. Once they’ve had enough fun, Aunt Mou would take care of it.

As for the room arrangements.

Qianqian was still too young, and the nanny who usually took care of her didn’t come along. In addition, Nan Jiaojiao knew how to amuse kids but not take care of them. If Qianqian woke up at night, it would still be Bo Yanching who’d have to comfort her.

She had a soft couch in her room, wide enough to be a bed. Bo Yanching could sleep on it while Nan Jiaojiao and Qianqian shared the bed.

“Should we wash her feet?” Nan Jiaojiao asked.

Bo Yanching gently placed Qianqian in bed, tucked the blanket, and straightened up before saying softly, “No need. It’s okay for kids not to wash. I’ll bring some hot water later and give her a wipe.”
