"Alright then, I'll believe you this time, Mama, but you can't lie to me!"
Da Bao said with a hint of unease, based on past experiences of being deceived, his mother's trustworthiness was rather low.
"Mama will absolutely not lie to you. Hurry up and go to bed."
Feng Jin guaranteed repeatedly, then took one child by each hand and led them to the bed. After helping them undress, she tucked both of them in, pulled up the quilt, and covered them.
"Close your eyes and sleep, my darlings. Mama promises you, when you wake up, there will definitely be a surprise."
"Really, Mama? You won't lie to me. I'm going to sleep right now," Da Bao said excitedly, already beginning to imagine what the surprise might be, and quickly closed his eyes.
Er Bao's face was calm, but his heart also began to imagine what kind of surprise it would be. In this joy, his gradually heavy eyelids slowly closed.
Only when the even breathing of the two children reached her ears did Feng Jin confirm that the little ones had fallen asleep. She gently removed her hands that had been patting them.
Maintaining the same action for such a long time made her arm ache terribly.
These two clingy little ones were truly difficult to coax. Fortunately, she had finally managed to get them to sleep, and she could have some peace for a while.
However, she still had no clue what surprise to give them. The main reason was that they learned things too quickly; no matter what it was, they would master it in a short amount of time.
She really couldn't think of anything that could completely stump these two little ones. It was truly vexing.
Feng Jin leaned on the desk and couldn't help but sigh. It was truly perplexing.
After a long pause, Feng Jin suddenly had an epiphany. This was the only method she could think of at the moment. As for the outcome,
Only by trying would she know. What else could she do when she had these two troublesome little ones?
After confirming her plan, Feng Jin slowly stood up and walked out. She tiptoed to close the door, her movements exceedingly light, for fear of accidentally waking the two little ones.
As if by bad luck, as soon as she stepped out, she bumped squarely into Ling Mo Han. With someone suddenly appearing behind her, Feng Jin shivered violently, almost letting out a cry.
She cast a reproachful gaze at the man who had suddenly appeared behind her. Feng Jin's breathing was rapid. She glared fiercely at Ling Mo Han and said irritably, "Do you have to scare people from behind late at night? Don't you know that startling people can kill them?"
She was starting to suspect if she had offended Ling Mo Han in some place in her past life, and he was using this method to try and scare her to death.
"I've been standing behind you for a long time. It's clearly you who were too engrossed and didn't notice my presence at all. How can you blame it all on me?"
Ling Mo Han felt that he was being wronged immensely at this moment. Why did everything turn out to be his fault?
"You shut up! If I say it's your fault, then it's your fault. Are you going to argue with me further!"
She was already full of anger, and it just so happened that Ling Mo Han ran into the muzzle of her gun. How could she continue to hold back her anger and not vent it?
"Hurry up and get out of the way, don't block my path. I have important things to do!"
After saying this, Feng Jin swept past the man and walked forward.
Ling Mo Han also froze slightly, his brows furrowing. His eyes were filled with dissatisfaction. Why did he have the illusion that Feng Jin didn't take him seriously? This feeling made him extremely unhappy.
He really disliked the feeling of Feng Jin ignoring him, whether intentionally or unintentionally. It was truly irritating.
After hesitating for a long time, Ling Mo Han still followed Feng Jin's footsteps. He wanted to find out what Feng Jin was up to.
She acted so mysteriously all day long. Why did he feel like Feng Jin was deliberately hiding something from him? He had stumbled upon it today, so he had to investigate thoroughly.
Feng Jin walked forward with hurried steps. She wasn't deaf or blind, so she naturally noticed the man who had been following her all along.
He had been sneakily following her since a while ago. Did he really think she hadn't noticed?
She had originally wanted to see what Ling Mo Han was up to, but after so much time had passed, the man following her still made no move.
She could no longer endure it. Being followed like this with no action was simply torture for her.
After persevering for another quarter of an hour, the last shred of her patience was completely worn out.
"You've been following me for so long, what exactly do you want?"
Feng Jin, unable to bear it any longer, turned around and looked at the sneaky Ling Mo Han behind her, demanding an explanation.
Ling Mo Han was slightly startled by Feng Jin's sudden question. For a moment, he was too stunned to react, completely not expecting Feng Jin to discover him so quickly.
"I... I just came..."
Before the man could finish his explanation, he was frightened back by a look from Feng Jin.
"Do you really think I'm blind or deaf? That I truly can't see you following me for so long? I didn't expose you earlier because I wanted to see what you were trying to do."
"I thought you'd give up after following for a while and go back. I didn't expect you to be so persistent, having made up your mind to keep following!"
If it wasn't for the annoying little tail following her, she wouldn't have planned to expose Ling Mo Han so soon.
"Since you knew I was following you all along, you still pretended not to know and let me follow you for so long..."
Ling Mo Han complained with dissatisfaction, truly unhappy with Feng Jin's actions. He felt as if he had been tricked.
"If you want to follow, then follow openly. There's no need to hide behind. Aren't you afraid of being laughed at if people find out?"
She genuinely didn't want to see Ling Mo Han continue like this, so Feng Jin frankly invited Ling Mo Han to walk forward with her.
"Let's go together."
After receiving permission, Ling Mo Han no longer hesitated and readily followed.
Upon arriving at their destination, Ling Mo Han began to regret coming with Feng Jin. He felt as if he had gotten onto a pirate ship. Was it too late to back out now? If possible, he would turn around and leave immediately, without the slightest hesitation.
"What are you doing here so late at night?"
"I naturally have my reasons for being here. What's wrong, are you regretting it?"
