"Okay, it’s getting warm in here. You kids go outside and play. Grandma just made this for you, let it cool for a bit before drinking," said the Ruanlin matron after eating the pine nuts from Ruan Jiaojiao’s hand, urging them to go outside as she couldn’t bear the thought of Jiaojiao getting choked by the smoke.

Ruan Jiaojiao obediently nodded her head and followed Xiu Xi out of the kitchen.

In the living room, a few older brothers were engrossed in watching "The Legend of the Condor Heroes," and they were so captivated that they couldn’t help but gesticulate wildly as they watched. Ruan Jiaojiao thought they looked utterly foolish and went over to where Ruanlin and Lu Zhiwei were.

Over the past few years, Ruanlin had developed a heavier smoking habit due to business socializing, but whenever Ruan Jiaojiao was around, he would automatically put out his cigarette.

Now seeing Ruan Jiaojiao approaching, he immediately extinguished his cigarette and asked with a smile, "Why aren’t you watching TV, sweetheart? Come here to Daddy."

Ruan Jiaojiao snuggled up and heard them discussing financial issues.

Running an electronics store and transporting goods southward were completely different concepts; Ruanlin had indeed made quite a bit of money these past two years. However, he loved playing the magnate, and if it weren’t for Shu Jiao and the Ruanlin matron keeping an eye on him, he would have squandered all the money.

According to him, money earned was meant to be spent without restraint, so now their home was equipped with all sorts of appliances, they even had a washing machine.

The washing machine was a dual-tub semi-automatic model, which cost several hundred when purchased. Ruanlin was as excited as could be on the day they got it. However, the Ruanlin matron knew that the darn thing consumed electricity, and chased him around half the village with a mop in hand.

Now, listening to the two fathers, she sensed that they still seemed to be short of funds.

In the past two years, thanks to Xiu Xi’s New Year’s money, Jiaojiao had accumulated about four to five thousand in New Year’s money, and with her regular savings, she should have about five thousand by now, which Shu Jiao had saved for her last New Year.

Seeing that her two dads were short on cash, she immediately said, "Dad, Godfather, Jiaojiao has money."

"Hahaha, how much money does Jiaojiao have?" Lu Zhiwei was instantly amused to laughter.

Ruan Jiaojiao felt that his tone was belittling her and, feeling somewhat displeased, she stretched out five fingers, "This much!"

"Hahahaha..." Ruanlin couldn’t help laughing too and leaned down to peck her little cheek, "How could Daddy take money from his sweetheart? Keep saving your money, my dear."

"No need, Jiaojiao can invest it for you..." Ruan Jiaojiao was saying when Xiu Xi, who apparently came over at some point, held out a baby bottle to her, and while doing so, casually wiped her face with his hand.

"..." Ruanlin glared at him, finding the boy increasingly bothersome.

He kissed his own daughter, so what was it to this boy? His daughter hadn’t even complained, yet he was the one who seemed to mind first.

Ruan Jiaojiao took the baby bottle without a fuss, but failed to notice the tension between the two men beside her. She was among family and didn’t bother hiding her habits. After gulping down a couple of mouthfuls of milk, she continued, "After all, the money doesn’t earn much interest sitting in the bank. It’s better to invest it in Dad and Godfather’s business."

Of course, she would be even happier if they could give her a small share.

With that thought, she felt a little embarrassed. She had always envied the shares Xiu Xi had in Ruanlin’s business. In the future, it’s like having money while lying down, especially since Ruanlin would be a business tycoon.

Although as the daughter of this business tycoon, her life would certainly be comfortable, it couldn’t compare to holding real money in her own hands.
