C5: Mama Yu, Little bun thinks that daddy is a blind bat
???
"Pfft…"
Aunty Chen's smile stiffened as she clenched her small fists.
On the surface, the little girl sounded polite and obedient, but anyone who listened carefully could hear the hidden meaning in her words.
She wasn't apologizing to Aunty Zhen but she was mocking her.
She was clearly saying that it was Aunty Chen's "teaching" that made her rude.
Everyone knew Zhen Yuwei's temper.
The little bun had always been sharp-tongued and disrespectful to elders. Many people disliked her because of it.
But now that they thought about it…
Before Aunty Chen came into her life, the girl had been sweet, obedient, and soft.
After Aunty Chen appeared everything changed.
"What… what are you saying, Ah-Wei?" Aunty Chen forced a smile, but her voice trembled slightly.
Zhen Yuwei smiled brightly. Her eyes curved into soft crescents, and her small face glowed with innocence, so cute that for a moment, everyone almost forgot the tension in the room.
"Aunty Chen, are you going to say Ah-Wei is lying? When Mother stayed with me, Ah-Wei spoke nicely. But after Aunty Chen came, Ah-Wei started talking rudely to uncles and aunties. You told me to…"
She paused, as if thinking hard, her small brows slightly furrowed, making her look even more adorable.
No one could prove whether she was lying or not.
But they all remembered clearly..
When Yu Lian was close to her daughter, the little bun had been well-behaved and lovable.
It was only after Aunty Chen began visiting more often that the child slowly changed, picking up strange habits and speaking in ways that made people frown.
The elders in the room began to look at Aunty Chen differently, their gazes was cautious and guarded.
She had no child of her own, yet she spent so much time "raising" someone else's daughter.
If she could teach someone else's child like this… what would she do to their own children?
No one dared to think further.
They made up their minds, when they returned home, they would tell their children to stay far away from both Zhen Yuwei and Aunty Chen.
After all, no parent wanted to be pointed at and called careless.
Zhen Yuwei continued, as if she didn't notice the change around her. "Aunty Chen also told me to keep asking Mother for divorce. Ah-Wei didn't understand what divorce meant… but Aunty Chen kept saying it again and again."
She turned her head and looked up at Yu Lian, her eyes wide and confused. "Mother… what is divorce?"
Slam!
Grandmother Zhen slammed her cane against the floor, and her face was full of anger.
So this was the truth?
She had always thought the child's behavior came from poor upbringing. She had blamed Yu Lian for everything.
But now…
It turned out someone had been whispering poison into the child's ears all along.
Her small fingers clutched Yu Lian's clothes as she spoke. "Aunty Chen said Daddy wouldn't love Ah-Wei if Mother stayed. She said… when Mother leaves, she will become Ah-Wei's mother."
"She also said Mother smells bad and is useless… that Mother doesn't deserve Ah-Wei. She said if people find out Mother is Ah-Wei's mother, they will laugh and call Ah-Wei a maid's daughter…"
The room fell completely silent.
Her gaze landed on the man standing at the door.
Mr. Zhen.
He wore a perfectly tailored black suit that hugged his broad shoulders. His features were refined and striking, and his eyes deep and unreadable, the kind of man who could make others lower their heads with just a glance.
Even at thirty-five, he looked flawless, like time had forgotten him. No wonder women still chased after him.
No wonder Aunty Chen refused to let go.
Zhen Yuwei tilted her little head slightly from where she rested in her mother's arms, her bright eyes fixed on him."Aunty Chen said Daddy loved her first… She said if Mother stayed, she would leave Ah-Wei… and Daddy wouldn't like Ah-Wei anymore if Mother was around…"
Her small voice was gentle, but her words were heavy.
She didn't know how deep her father's feelings for Aunty Chen were.
But one thing she knew clearly—
This time, she would not let anyone take what belonged to her and her mother.
If her father could not love them, then his power would protect them. If he could not stand by her mother, then everything he owned would.
In her past life, she had learned one cruel truth.
Without power and money, no matter how kind or innocent you were, the world would never bend for you.
When she had lost everything, even her friends had turned against her.
Mr. Zhen looked at his daughter, and his eyes slowly darkened. He was not a fool.
At that moment, Zhen Yuwei didn't look at him with admiration.
She looked at him as if she could see right through him, and she was judging him without saying a word.
It felt as though she was calling him blind and deaf at the same time!
It was really insufferable!!!
