Er Bao pouted, tilting her little head back.

"Car, baby's car..."

Er Bao had grown, and her voice had become much louder. Zhang Yuxi, unable to coax her, turned to Lin Feng for help.

"Honey, if this isn't working, should we just find her one?"

"She's still so young, her understanding is a bit off. We can teach her slowly as she grows older."

Lin Feng rubbed his forehead. "Let me think where I can find a little car."

He noticed a cardboard box on the table and had a flash of inspiration. Activating his Elementary Handicraft skills, five minutes later...

Uh...

A little car pieced together from cardboard appeared. To make it look nicer, Lin Feng had even painted it. It looked the part, just a little ugly.

Er Bao, who had been crying for five minutes, was clearly putting on a bit of a show.

Lin Feng pretended to be serious and said, "Let me go and look..."

Zhang Yuxi also comforted her daughter. "Let Daddy go look for it. He'll definitely find one."

Then, Lin Feng brought out the cardboard car. "Found it."

Er Bao had a good memory. When she took the car, she was stunned and looked at it from side to side. Then, she realized this wasn't the one from before.

Er Bao was about to cry again.

Lin Feng quickly explained, "Er Bao, this is the other car after it transformed! It can change shape."

Er Bao could understand the concept of transforming. The family had bought quite a few toys that could transform.

Lin Feng's explanation was completely serious, while Er Bao listened with a look of utter confusion.

Zhang Yuxi, standing at the side, was about to die from laughter. She patted Lin Feng, as if to say, *How can you be so exasperating?*

Er Bao repeatedly examined the cardboard car in her hands, a flicker of self-doubt crossing her face.

Lin Feng looked at her with a very serious expression and explained that this car could indeed transform.

Then, Er Bao handed the car back to Lin Feng and looked up at him, as if to say, *Then change it back for me.*

Lin Feng was speechless.

Zhang Yuxi couldn't stop laughing.

Lin Feng asked Er Bao, "You want this car to change back, is that right?"

Er Bao nodded earnestly, her eyes filled with anticipation.

Lin Feng was at a loss for words again.

Zhang Yuxi stood up, still laughing. "Honey, you handle this. I'm going to die of laughter."

Lin Feng teased her, "Want to bet I can make Er Bao come running to you with just one sentence?"

Hearing this, Zhang Yuxi quickly suppressed her smile, holding her laughter in. "Honey, I'm going to take the babies to the potty."

Finally, Lin Feng couldn't withstand Er Bao's innocent gaze any longer and forced himself to say, "Er Bao, Daddy can't change it back..."

As soon as she heard this, Er Bao was about to let out a wail, but just then, Lin Jie walked over.

"What's wrong? Still crying?"

Lin Feng quietly explained the situation.

Lin Jie smiled and took a small toy out of his pocket. "Er Bao, here!"

"This is from a keychain Yang Zheng bought. A decoration fell off it."

The small toy was a fluffy and very cute little rabbit.

Er Bao's affections shifted with lightning speed. With the little rabbit in her hands, she happily trotted off.

Lin Feng suddenly felt as if all his efforts had been for naught. But watching Er Bao's joyous expression, he couldn't help but smile too.

「…」

After dinner, Lin Jie and the others vied to do the dishes. In the process, Chen Miaomiao broke a bowl. After being gently teased by the others for her clumsiness, she ran off to play with the children. Chen Miaomiao had a good temper and loved to play with kids, envying them for having so many siblings.

Lin Feng was teaching the babies to sort colors.

Da Bao and San Bao were the most cooperative, though Da Bao was easily distracted by Si Bao and Er Bao.

"This is a red ball, this one is blue, and this one is green..."

"Look, this is green, so it goes in the green basket..."

The babies showed a strong preference for red, always choosing red balls first. Lin Feng discovered that the laziest of the bunch, San Bao, was also the smartest. After Lin Feng explained the task just once, she understood. She then wandered over to a pile of toys, lay down, and started playing with a Rubik's cube, as if to say, "My work is done. I'm not playing anymore."

Lin Feng sighed. "...Come on, Da Bao, let's continue."

"What color is this? Blue... Come on... put it here..."

"That's right! Da Bao, you did a great job!"

Si Bao and Er Bao were playing with Chen Miaomiao.

A glance at the clock showed it was bath time again.

Er Bao's and San Bao's hair had grown much longer. Combined with their glossy black locks, they were as beautiful as little fairies. San Bao's hair was soft and straight, while Er Bao's was slightly curly. Both had adorable bob cuts.

The baby boys had buzz cuts and would get another trim when summer arrived. By then, the girls' hair would be long enough to be put into little braids.

Zhang Yuxi was toweling San Bao's hair before blow-drying it. San Bao hugged her mother's waist and buried her head in her chest like a little ostrich. Er Bao, on the other hand, wasn't scared of the hairdryer's noise at all. She was completely engrossed in playing with her new rabbit toy.

After everyone was washed and settled, the babies fell asleep quietly. At this moment, they were like little angels, perfectly behaved. When they woke up, however, they would be little whirlwinds of trouble.

Meanwhile, on the basement floor, the four friends had started a ranked match. During the champion selection phase, Chen Miaomiao noticed several missed calls from Chen Jianguo. When he called back, the line was busy. Chen Miaomiao immediately figured his dad must be calling Lin Feng.

Sure enough, Lin Feng received a call from Chen Jianguo. He claimed he had something to discuss with his son but couldn't get through, and that Lin Jie and the others weren't answering either.

Lin Feng explained they were in the middle of a game.

Although Chen Jianguo didn't say much, his words betrayed his concern. Lin Feng reassured him, "They're just playing games here at home."

As a father himself, Lin Feng could understand Chen Jianguo's love for his son. But Chen Miaomiao was already starting college, so the constant checking up seemed a bit excessive.

Lin Feng went down to the basement and handed the phone to Chen Miaomiao.

"Dad, why are you calling again...? I know, I'm at Big Brother's house. Yes... mm-hmm..."

After finishing the call, Chen Miaomiao returned the phone to Lin Feng with an apologetic expression.

Lin Feng didn't think much of it. "Just have fun, you guys."

As soon as Lin Feng left, Chen Miaomiao started a video call with her dad.

"Dad, what's with you? You're making me look like a kid who can't grow up..."

Chen Jianguo gave an awkward laugh. "Your grandma called. She wanted to video chat with you, and I couldn't reach you."

Chen Miaomiao didn't want to argue about it. "Just call me less from now on. I'm having a great time here."

Through the video, Chen Jianguo saw the small, custom-built gaming setup and looked very satisfied.

"Lin Jie prepared this just for us!" Chen Miaomiao boasted.

Chen Jianguo was even more pleased. "Son, you go play. Dad won't call you again unless it's important!"

Chen Miaomiao was satisfied. "You calling so frequently could make Big Brother feel like he's not a good host."

"Yes, yes, you're right. Dad didn't think of that. You all play, have a good time."

"When you get back to Meicheng, Dad will treat them all to a nice meal."

The father and son ended the call.

Meng Liang tilted his head. "Big Brother, shall we continue?"

"Let's go!"

In the middle of the night, Lin Feng took the babies for a potty break. He went down to the basement and saw the group was still playing, so he went to the kitchen and made them some noodles.

"Wow! Big Brother, you're too good to us!"

"Totally! You're a true brother to us."

"It smells so good! Thanks, Bro!"

"Thank you, Big Brother."

Lin Feng smiled. "Finish up, then just leave the bowls and chopsticks on the side. Get some rest soon."

"Okay," they all replied in unison.
