In the vibrant city where dreams took flight, Zhang Xiao, a determined 22-year-old fresh graduate, had her heart set on a singular goal - to realize her passion for culinary art by opening her own hotpot restaurant. She believed that the savory broth and communal spirit of hotpot would weave bonds between people, creating a sanctuary of laughter and shared moments.

But fate had a mischievous twist in store for Zhang Xiao.

Amidst her relentless pursuit of her dreams, a little kid named Mu Ya appeared out of nowhere, an unexpected whirlwind that threatened to upend her carefully laid plans. "Mommy," Mu Ya's tender voice called, her tiny arms outstretched for a warm embrace.

Caught off guard, Zhang Xiao couldn't help but be taken aback by this unforeseen intrusion into her life. But then, there was Mr. Mu, a man with an air of peculiar narcissism. He announced with an air of certainty, "My daughter likes you, so I want to hire you as her mom."

Baffled and incredulous, Zhang Xiao responded, "Wait, you want to hire me as your daughter's mom?"

With Mu Ya nestled in her lap, Zhang Xiao expressed her doubts, "Mr. Mu, I don't think this is a good idea."

Mr. Mu's proposal seemed like a jest, but he was entirely serious. He dangled a tempting offer before her, "The salary is 30,000 per month. I can offer more if you want."

Considering the easy job of babysitting, Zhang Xiao quipped, "It's just babysitting. It can't be difficult!"

However, Mr. Mu warned her with a smirk, "But bear this in mind. Don't fall in love with me."

Puzzled, Zhang Xiao retorted, "What? Are you money? Why would I fall for you?"

In that instant, an extraordinary tale of a jealous dad and an unsuspecting babysitter began to unfold. Amidst the laughter and conflicts, they were all set to embark on a journey filled with unexpected twists and turns, leading them towards love, understanding, and the cherished bonds of family.

"My daughter only has eyes for me," Mr. Mu declared proudly, unaware of the profound changes that were about to unfold.

Zhang Xiao playfully teased, "Humph, stop lying to yourself."

And so, with hearts intertwined, dreams entangled, and love yet to be discovered, their extraordinary journey had only just begun.
