The setting sun shone in from the window and the living room was filled with warmth. Jin Yang carried Little Yu, who was clinging onto him, to the French windows to admire the sunset.

Qiu Xingyuan and Qiu Xingqiao were huddled on the sofa. They looked gloomily at their sister, who had completely forgotten about them.

At this time after dinner every day, the three of them would play games. Qiu Xingyuan never expected to fall out of his sister’s favor!

He cleared his throat to attract the attention of Jin Yang and Qiu Xingyu. “Sister, you haven’t done the art homework assigned by the kindergarten teacher.”

“The teacher will scold you tomorrow at the kindergarten!”

Qiu Xingyu pursed her lips and lowered her head. “But it’s so difficult to fold paper animals!”

Qiu Xingqiao wanted to make things difficult for Jin Yang. He lifted his chin and placed a stack of folding papers on the coffee table in the living room. “Isn’t he here?”

“The other children in the kindergarten can’t do it either, but their fathers can!”

“A few days ago, Little Fatty bragged that his father was very skilled in making tigers and lions…”

Qiu Xingqiao snorted awkwardly. He crossed his arms and turned around. However, he did not forget to steal a glance at Jin Yang. “If you want to be our stepfather, you must know how to coax our sister! At the very least, you must help her finish her homework!”

Jin Yang did not expect that he would encounter this test by the children. He raised his eyebrows slightly and stared at the folding paper in silence.

Little Yu’s eyes flickered with anticipation as she shook Jin Yang’s fingers. She asked in a childish voice, “Uncle will definitely be able to do it, right?”

How could Jin Yang bear to disappoint Qiu Xingyu?

He sat cross-legged on the ground and studied the instructions carefully.

Although Jin Yang didn’t have experience with this type of children stuff, he quickly folded exquisite animals such as deer, tigers and lions according to the instructions. His slender fingers carefully pressed the edges of the folding paper. The entire process was completed in one go without any need for corrections…

Qiu Xingyu widened her eyes and kept clapping. She hurriedly stood up and threw herself into Jin Yang’s arms. She hugged his neck and kissed him twice.

“Uncle is indeed the best! Uncle can do anything!”

When Qiu Xingyuan and Qiu Xingqiao saw the paper animals, they could not find anything to nitpick on. The two brothers had no choice but to sit there and sulk.

Little Yu did not hide her admiration and love for Jin Yang. She gently tugged at Jin Yang’s fingers and muttered softly, “If only Uncle is our father. That way, we can be together every day!”

“Will Uncle always be with us? Will you abandon us and Mommy?”

Traumatized by her earlier experiences, Qiu Xingyu asked this question with some trepidation. Jin Yang recalled his promise to Song Yan and his expression stiffened slightly. He then replied perfunctorily, “I will always protect you.”

Qiu Tong watched the three of them interact harmoniously in the kitchen, her eyes filled with gentleness and comfort.

She rinsed the foam off her hands with fresh water. Another ridiculous thought popped into her head. “Could he really be the children’s father?”

Qiu Tong frowned as she stared at Jin Yang. However, she recalled his insistence that they had never met before and so dismissed this conjecture. “Perhaps it’s just a coincidence?” Qiu Tong muttered to herself as she walked to the living room to play with Jin Yang..
