Daddy Always Gets Jealous

”...”

No one responded to his words.

Yu Zimu scanned the surroundings, his gaze falling on Huo Jinnan, ”Don’t tell me it’s because of your old man getting us involved.”

Huo Jinnan looked at Yu Zimu, paused for a moment, then said softly, ”It’s not that simple.”

Yu Zimu, ”Brother Huo.”

Huo Jinnan fell silent again, recalling the day he was in the bedroom, avoiding sight, then thinking of Ye Bai, how the team leader had disappeared afterwards, and how he and Qin Huan saw their leader, disguised differently, and someone resembling their older brother’s shadow under Jin Bo’s building.

Shen You looked at Huo Jinnan, ”Brother Huo, go ahead and investigate, our accounts shouldn’t have any major issues.”

Huo Jinnan turned to Shen You, ”I like hearing that.”

Yu Zimu said to Shen You and Huo Jinnan, ”It’s easy to pick a bone if one wants to.”

Huo Jinnan turned to Yu Zimu, ”Let’s see after the investigation.”

Yu Zimu sat there, ”Will it be too late after the investigation? Carefulness causes no harm.”

”No need.”

Huo Jinnan muttered softly, thinking about Jin Bo, really wanting to see what he intends to do after the investigation.

His instinct told him that Jin Bo had nothing to do with the rag doll incident.

With that thought, his gaze swept around, ”A trivial matter, don’t let it affect your mood.”

As soon as he finished speaking, he looked up at the housekeeper, ”Go prepare madam’s dinner, I’ll order takeout for the rest.”

Wen Nuan, who had been silent, looked at Huo Jinnan, ”Brother-in-law, ordering takeout now, could there be an issue with that too?”

Huo Jinnan looked at Wen Nuan, ”That makes some sense.”

He stood up and entered the kitchen, ”Housekeeper, knead some dough, let these folks make dumplings together. Prepare two dishes and a soup for madam, that will do.”

The housekeeper looked at Huo Jinnan, who had always been considerate towards their servants, feeling warmed, ”Yes, sir.”

...

An hour later, the housekeeper brought out a large basin of dough and a basin of dumpling filling to the coffee table in the living room.

Uncle Lu bought two small rolling pins from outside and placed a table in the living room.

The housekeeper also fetched a rolling pin from the kitchen.

Shen You, Yu Zimu, and Uncle Lu rolled out the dough while Huo Jinnan, Qin Huan, Wen Nuan, and Qin Shaojin made dumplings.

The little one came down, washed his hands, and quickly joined in, ”I want to do it too!”

Wen Nuan’s hands were sticky with dough, and seeing the little one approach, suddenly reached out her ’claws’ and vigorously rubbed the little one’s cheeks.

The little one’s face soured instantly, ”Let go of me!”

Wen Nuan saw his face smeared with dough, looking even cuter, and sweetly smiled, ”Okay, let go now, little dough face.”

”So annoying!”

The little one pursed his lips, grabbed some dough, looked at Wen Nuan, pretended to mess up her skirt, and quickly scattered it on her hair while she protected her skirt.

Wen Nuan quickly dodged, accidentally bumping into Qin Shaojin.

Qin Shaojin glanced at Wen Nuan and lightly kicked the stool under her.

Wen Nuan slipped, fell backward.

”Clumsy!”

Qin Shaojin reached out to help her, Wen Nuan in panic grasped for support, pressing down hard.

The next second, Qin Shaojin stiffened.

The little one stood by, eyes widened, sweeping his gaze over Wen Nuan and Qin Shaojin, ”Little auntie, your... your hand!”

Wen Nuan looked down, wasn’t her hand grabbing the table leg? What’s the matter?

The little one stood there, expression complex, pointing at Wen Nuan’s hand placed on Qin Shaojin’s groin, ”Right hand.”

Instantly, all eyes fell on Wen Nuan’s right hand.

Wen Nuan’s face turned red and quickly retracted her hand.
