Tech Dominator Starts with Raising Kids

Chapter 747: You’re Just Scared, Chicken

To stall for more time, Candy ate lunch exceptionally slowly after it was ready.

By the time Mo Jingchun and Zhou Yaling finished eating, there was still half a bowl of rice left in Candy’s bowl.

Drinking plain water next to her, Zhou Yaling was smiling as she watched Candy not eating in any hurry, waiting to see how long her brother could endure it.

It only took two minutes before Mo Jingchun couldn’t hold it in any longer.

"I say, why are you eating so slowly today? You said you were hungry before eating."

Candy’s eyes rolled around, looking very wronged.

"Today’s rice is a bit hard, I have to chew it slowly."

"Cough, cough~"

Zhou Yaling, who had choked on her water, patted her chest for a while before saying:

"I’m not taking the blame for this."

"Today’s rice is indeed a bit harder than usual, but not to the point where you can’t chew it."

After saying this, Zhou Yaling patted Candy’s shoulder with a smile and said sincerely, "Hurry up and finish eating so you can do your homework, there’s no escaping it."

Seeing her sister’s gaze, Candy turned to look at her brother.

Her brother had a stern face, looking quite intimidating.

"Almost done, I’ll finish soon."

After hastily finishing her meal, Candy quickly ran upstairs, as if Mo Jingchun was chasing her with a stick.

While helping Zhou Yaling clear the table, Mo Jingchun said absentmindedly:

"Do you think Candy is going through a rebellious phase? She doesn’t listen to me like she used to."

"I know this." While watching cartoons, Zero raised a hand and said with a chuckle:

"Generally, the rebellious phase is divided into three stages: the infant rebellious phase, the childhood rebellious phase, and the adolescent rebellious phase. Ages 2-3 are the infant rebellious phase, ages 7-9 are the childhood rebellious phase, and ages 12-18 are the adolescent rebellious phase."

"So, as long as it’s a child, they are always in a rebellious phase."

"But it doesn’t matter. The ancients summed up their experience with rebellious kids, which can be summed up in one phrase: ’A dutiful child emerges under the rod.’

Glancing at the gloating Zero, Mo Jingchun said exasperatedly, "Aren’t you the same? Can I use a stick on you too☞?"

Upon hearing this, Zero immediately felt indignant. At work, she always meets requirements.

Besides, she’s not afraid of getting hit, it’s laughable; getting hit doesn’t hurt at all.

Thinking of this, Zero laughed and said, "Come on, hit me."

Hearing these familiar words, Mo Jingchun was so angry he almost fumed.

Two one-meter-twos, neither was worry-free.

After tidying up the table, Mo Jingchun said to Zero, who was on the sofa watching cartoons, "Keep an eye on Candy for me. I’m going upstairs for a nap."

"When she’s done with her homework, help me check it."

Without looking up, Zero made an okay gesture.

Mo Jingchun stood at the study door and glanced at Candy doing her homework. Once he saw that she wasn’t slacking, Mo Jingchun turned and went to the bedroom.

Then... he turned around and locked the door from the inside.

Mo Jingchun could say, once he locks the door, when the little one finishes her homework, she’ll surely come to disturb his sleep.

After taking off his jacket and getting into bed, Mo Jingchun closed his eyes and drifted off to sleep in no time.

In his dreams, Mo Jingchun returned to his childhood days.

A childhood with no burdens or worries.

After wiping her hands with two paper towels, Zhou Yaling asked Zero, "Where’s our brother?"

"He went to sleep."

"Alright. I need a nap too; I feel like I have wrinkles coming in the corner of my eyes."

Surprised, Zero tilted her head to get a closer look at Zhou Yaling.

Except for slight dark circles, where were the wrinkles coming from?

...

In the evening, returning people congested the main roads of the small town, and with roadwork, the already jammed sections became even more blocked.

Raising a hand to glance at her smartwatch, Candy frowned and said, "Zero, do you think brother and sister have just been sleeping and ignoring us?"

"It’s already past six, and no one’s up yet."

As she said this, Candy pouted unhappily.

"Smelly brother, locking his door while sleeping."

"It’s infuriating."

At this moment, Zero rolled her eyes and said, "Guess why the big boss locked his door?"

"Isn’t it because..." Candy was tongue-tied.

"Exactly, isn’t it because he anticipated you coming to open it?"

"Hahaha."

Looking out the window at the now dark sky and the illuminated streetlights outside the yard.

Suddenly, an idea struck Candy’s mind.

She glanced toward the stairs and elevator, confirming her brother and sister weren’t up yet before whispering to Zero:

"Zero, since neither brother nor sister is up, why don’t the two of us make dinner and give them a big surprise, how about it?"

Zero looked incredulously at the eager Candy, but said, "That’s more like a fright, not a surprise."

"Don’t drag me into this. Even if getting hit doesn’t hurt, don’t I care about face?"

"Hmph~ you’re just scared, chickened out."

Zero, about to say no, suddenly laughed, "Hehe, I’m not falling for it. If you dare enter the kitchen, I’ll trigger the fire alarm throughout the villa."

Candy spread her hands, innocently saying, "But we don’t know when brother and sister will wake up. You can’t just let me starve, right?"

There wasn’t anything wrong with that statement, Zero thought for a moment, furrowing her brows, and said:

"How about I order you a takeout?"

"A feast?"

"A small meal."

"Alright, fine." Candy sighed lightly.

"Tell me what you want to eat."

"Shredded pork with green peppers."

"Alright."

...

In the kitchen of the five-star hotel on Welcome Avenue, the lobby manager hurried in with a receipt.

"Master Wang, an order from Villa No. 1, expedited."

Villa No. 1 was an internal nickname for Mo Jingchun’s villa, used to facilitate information communication.

Swinging a wok, Chef Wang raised an eyebrow, "What dishes?"

"Shredded pork with green peppers."

"Anyone else?"

"That’s it."

"That’s it?" Chef Wang looked back at the manager in surprise.

"Really, take a look at the order."

Holding the receipt, Chef Wang was a bit puzzled, "This is strange, just one dish."

"Give me ten minutes."

......

After washing his face and seeing that his dark circles had disappeared, Mo Jingchun nodded with satisfaction.

He had learned a big lesson this time; next time when visiting Su Wenyan’s place, he would only drink plain water.

Otherwise, who knows when he might fall into a pit prepared by Su Wenyan beforehand.

Smelling the enticing aroma of shredded pork with green peppers, Mo Jingchun’s stomach grumbled with hunger.

Turning a corner, Mo Jingchun was stunned by the scene before him.

"Your sister only cooked one dish?"

Eating the fragrant rice, Candy blinked and said, "Sister... Sister didn’t even get up."

"Then where did the shredded pork with green peppers come from? And the rice?"

"Hehe, Zero cares about me a lot. Seeing I was hungry, she ordered takeout."

Charging, Zero was taken aback, how could she twist words like that?
