Zachary said jealously, \u201cI know you love the kids more than me. But wife, we\u2019re the ones who\u2019ll be together for life. When the kids grow up, they\u2019ll leave us to start their own families.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cYou have to put me first\u2014don\u2019t let the kids outrank me.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cZachary, don\u2019t you feel ashamed? They\u2019re your children. Don\u2019t you love them? Every day when you get home from work, the first thing you ask about is Beibei\u2014not me, your wife. I get jealous too.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cDon\u2019t be so jealous\u2014it\u2019ll rot your teeth and ruin your appetite,\u201d Serenity teased.<\/p>\n

Zachary laughed. \u201cI can\u2019t help it. I just get jealous of the kids. It feels like they\u2019re always fighting me for your attention.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cEvery time we try to have a romantic moment, those two little ones pop in and separate us.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cEven at night, when I want to be close to you, I have to be cautious because of them.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWe used to be on guard around the baby, but now that she\u2019s grown up, there\u2019s Beibei. She still sleeps with us. When she\u2019s a bit older, we\u2019ll move her into her own room.\u201d<\/p>\n

Zachary loves his children deeply, but when he wants to be affectionate with his wife and gets interrupted by the kids, he can\u2019t help feeling frustrated\u2014like he\u2019s raised two little rivals for his wife\u2019s love.<\/p>\n

Serenity chuckled again. \u201cI don\u2019t know who it was that used to say Beibei is your precious girl, your whole world. And now here you are, complaining about her.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIf Beibei hears that Daddy doesn\u2019t want her, she won\u2019t let you hug her for a whole month. You\u2019ll be dying for cuddles.\u201d<\/p>\n

Zachary quickly surrendered. \u201cWife, I\u2019m just venting\u2014I don\u2019t actually dislike Beibei. She\u2019s our only daughter, our little sweetheart.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cSince we had Beibei, I\u2019ve stopped envying Ye Junbo. Zachary has a daughter now too! The Zhan family isn\u2019t a Buddhist temple anymore, thanks to Beibei.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cJunyan is already in primary school\u2014so pretty and bright, with excellent grades and a kind heart. Ye Junbo has no reason to envy you.\u201d<\/p>\n

Serenity gave birth to Beibei when Junyan and his siblings were one year old. Now Beibei is six, and Junyan and the others are seven and already in primary school. Both children have strong academic performance and have learned a number of special skills, even at just seven years old.
\nJunyan\u2019s temperament remains calm and composed. Although she\u2019s not the eldest, she carries herself like a big sister among the Jun family\u2019s children. Everyone dotes on her and listens to her.<\/p>\n

Mu Qing once confided in Serenity that Junyan is the most likely candidate to take over Fengchen Group in the future.<\/p>\n

Mu Qing has only one daughter, and she sincerely hopes Junyan won\u2019t have to take on that responsibility.<\/p>\n

Serenity could only offer comfort, saying that Junyan is still young and far from being ready to shoulder such a burden. Boys tend to mature more slowly, and once the Yeyao brothers grow older, they may become more stable and reliable than Junyan.<\/p>\n

Naturally, it\u2019s better for boys to take on the heavy responsibilities.<\/p>\n

Now that Serenity has a daughter, it\u2019s likely Beibei will remain the only girl in her generation within the Zhan family. If the cousins are ranked, she would be number eight.<\/p>\n

All her older male cousins love and spoil her.<\/p>\n

If she wanted stars, they wouldn\u2019t just stop at giving her the moon\u2014they\u2019d give her anything she desired.<\/p>\n

She\u2019ll have many cousins in the future, and no doubt they\u2019ll all continue to cherish and pamper her.<\/p>\n

But Serenity has never considered grooming her daughter as a future heir.<\/p>\n

No one in the Zhan family has, either. It\u2019s not because they prefer boys over girls, or because they doubt Beibei\u2019s potential. It\u2019s because they want to spare her the pressure. They simply want Beibei to grow up happy and carefree.<\/p>\n

To follow her passions without the weight of family obligations.<\/p>\n

The eldest brother is the firstborn grandson, and there are several other male cousins who can shoulder the responsibility of taking over the family business.<\/p>\n
