Chapter 23 I Really Like You

  Then she slammed the door and left, Wu Zhen was still calm and unhurried. As soon as her mother-in-law walked out, she immediately called the orphanage to have the child taken away. The next day when her mother-in-law came over to visit, she was shocked - where was her dear grandson? Only after asking did she find out that he had been sent to an orphanage. Her mother-in-law was so angry that her nose was crooked, and she almost fainted on the spot. In the end, she stumbled and staggered to the orphanage to pick up the child, then said to Wu Zhen "I'm going to sue you, you heartless woman who abandoned your own child!"

  Wu Zhen said indifferently, "Mm, I'll wait for mom's news, then we'll see who wins the lawsuit in the end - my brother-in-law who abandoned his own child or me, this sister!"

  Grandma burst into tears, with a nose full of snot and tears, "Can't you just be considerate of me and your brother? You know what kind of state your brother is in now, and I'm so old... Can't you help take care of him? And if you can't do it yourself, can't you at least let Xiaocheng drop out of school to come back home and take care of him?"

  When grandma said this, Xiaocui happened to come in and heard the whole conversation. She was furious in her heart. What had she eaten from her grandmother's house or used that made her let her take care of her younger uncle's child? Why should she drop out of school to take care of the child? Her younger uncle wasn't disabled or useless, why should she drop out of school to take care of the child?

  Xiao Chuan had thought of all the scolding words, and then she heard Wu Zhen say coldly, "Mom, I don't know what kind of mood you're in when you say such things. Anyway, I feel chilled to the bone after hearing them. If this were a blended family, wouldn't you be considered the step-grandmother? What right do you have to ask my daughter to take care of your son's child? Please tell me, what obligation do we have to take care of this child? My brother is fine, why did he go and leave his own child for his mother to take care of? This is really a good son! If you want us to help take care of the child, that's okay. Let him give us 10,000 yuan in living expenses every month, and we'll be happy to help. Otherwise, you can just take the child back. Give it to whoever should have it. We don't have the leisure time to take care of another child. I can barely take care of one. Mom, please do as you like."

  This was the first time Xiaochan heard Wu Zhen defend herself after her brother's birth, although most of the time Wu Zhen was also stern with her. But now hearing her say this, Xiaochan still felt quite moved in her heart. Her grandmother didn't have much weight in her heart, perhaps it was because she had never received her love before, so when her grandmother said such words, she just thought it was inconceivable and hadn't been hurt at all.

  But Grandma can say such things, and Wu Zhen also speaks out to defend her. Xiaochan feels that if she doesn't say something, it would be unfair to herself. "Grandma, I'm really sorry, but I still need to study for university exams and don't have time to take care of the child. If you feel tired and don't want to take care of him, you can give him back to my uncle. If he's not willing, you can sue him, and I guarantee you'll win."

  The old lady was so angry that she wanted to leave immediately, her lips were trembling. She looked at Wu Zhen and then at Xiao Chan, but in the end, she couldn't say a word and turned around to leave.

  In the end, how was it resolved? Xiaocui wasn't interested. Anyway, she could easily think of it and know that from now on, her grandmother wouldn't have a good day. What's called "a doting mother spoils her child" is referring to her grandmother, who spoiled her younger brother excessively since he was young, otherwise would he become like this today?

  A grown man doesn't even understand what responsibility is, how can he be expected to accomplish anything great in the future? Only an uncultured person like grandma would dare think this way. Someone like my little uncle is a loser both in school and out in society. Grandma will eventually reap the consequences of her own actions.

  Rong Ying hadn't heard about what had happened, and if he had, who knows how angry he would have been. Since he was young, he had only come into contact with people of good breeding, so it was really hard for him to imagine that there could be such shameless men in the world, truly losing face for all men.

  After the two arrived at school, they met Su Miao again at the entrance. Her eyes were a bit evasive and she didn't say a word before walking forward. Then Rong Ying let out a cold hum, Xiao Chan asked in surprise "Did you have a falling out with her?"

  Rong Ying couldn't help but glance at her and said, "What's going on in that little brain of yours all day?"

  Xiaochan stuck out her tongue and smiled as the two of them walked side by side. Not far behind, Nanxi was following at a distance that wasn't too close or too far, occasionally chatting with the female classmates beside him.

  After saying goodbye to Xiao Chuan, Rong Ying went up the stairs halfway and saw Su Miao waiting there. When she saw Rong Ying coming up, she bit her lip and said "Rong Ying, I really like you..."

  "So?" Rong Ying said coldly, actually Su Miao wasn't the first time to say this to him, last time he went to see Xiao Chan, he felt that a female classmate was staring at him, but didn't pay attention then. But later Su Miao took the opportunity to confess to him, and at that time Su Miao was still considered Xiao Chan's friend.

  At that time, he felt that this girl was really terrifying. Doesn't she know what it means to not steal someone's boyfriend? On the surface, she seemed friendly with Xiaocui, but behind her back, she secretly flirted with other people's boyfriends. Does she think he is a playboy who wants every pretty woman he sees?

  "I'm not as good as Xiaochan, I'm prettier and have a better figure than her!" Su Miao couldn't bear this point the most. Obviously, she was better than Xiaochan in every way, so why did Xiaochan have such good luck to get a boyfriend like Rong Yu, while she couldn't even meet a decent man? She wasn't convinced! Even if he belonged to someone else, she wanted him and would fight for him!

  "Oh, you think you're better than Xiaochan? If I'm not mistaken, your nose and mouth are all done, right? Do you know what kind of woman I hate the most? It's a fake woman! In my heart, you can't even compare to one of her fingers. From now on, don't keep coming in front of me for no reason, just because I won't hit women doesn't mean I'll let you harass me!" Rongying threw down these harsh words and strode away.

  Su Miao's face turned pale, Rong Ying was always polite in front of Xiao Chan, but she was fascinated by the way Rong Ying spoiled Xiao Chan and wanted to take it away. However, Rong Ying's gentleness was only for Xiao Chan, and he didn't give any face to those who touched his bottom line.

  Su Miao bit her lip and slowly walked down the stairs, only to see school flower Nan Xi walking up. Nan Xi was a little taller than Su Miao, she looked at Su Miao with a condescending gaze, slapped her face and sneered: "A lowly person like you thinks they can seduce Rong Yun? Don't you dare look in the mirror and see how dirty you are? Next time you try to get close to Rong Yun, it won't be just a slap on the face. I'll rip your face apart!"

  Nanxi suddenly changed from her usual sweet and lovely appearance, revealing a ferocious face, and after throwing down the words, she also walked away.

  Su Miao covered her face and left without a word. Nan Xi was not someone she could afford to offend, let alone Rong Ying.

  What happened in the stairwell was like a puff of smoke blown away by the wind, and no one knew except those involved.
