Chapter 200: Chapter 200 She Deserves It Chapter 200: Chapter 200 She Deserves It Bao Min, failing to speak ill of others, then added, “However, you all should be careful, if soone is being bad-mouthed behind their backs, it surely isn’t without reason. Do you know what ‘without reason’ ans? It’s a new phrase.”
Fang Xia nodded and then shook her head.
Aunt Su was clearly very diligent.
At this ti, Fang Shuai had finished his training and ca over to greet Bao Min.
Bao Min said to a sweaty Fang Shuai, “You two should hurry back, let Aunt Su heat so water for you to take a bath so you don’t catch a cold. After bathing, eat sothing. You’re growing kids, so you must eat plenty of at.”
Bao Min rarely ate at herself because she wanted to maintain her figure. She assud that Su ixi probably didn’t eat much either and, with Su ixi being alone at ho, was even less likely to cook at.
At Su ixi’s ho.
She indeed felt a bit unaccustod these days. When Gu Wei wasn’t ho, she could do as she pleased, managing with just cooking so noodles for dinner. But now that there were two little ones in the house, she had to take care of them.
She thought, thankfully they were around 10 years old. If they were around three, she would definitely have fled back to Feng City.
Thinking that children around the age of 10 needed to grow, and couldn’t lack protein, she had prepared food in advance. She followed a food blogger’s video to learn how to make Orleans chicken drumsticks, made egg and at rolls, and stewed soup.
Because the primary school was also within the Military District, the two children quickly returned.
“Xiao Shuai, look at you, all sweaty. Go take a bath first,” Su ixi said.
Fang Shuai ran happily into the bathroom.
This was his habit when staying at soone else’s ho—if he was sweaty, he’d take a bath first.
Fang Xia glanced at the dishes on the dining table, all of them flavorful and appetizing, and she was very pleased.
Teacher Bao was really overthinking it; Aunt Su was indeed very hardworking.
After Fang Shuai finished his bath, the siblings happily ate their al. After dinner, Fang Xia and Fang Shuai even fought over who would do the dishes—one washed while the other cleaned the kitchen.
Su ixi was also happy to relax. If there were any places the siblings didn’t clean properly, she would just tidy up after they had gone to sleep.
After dinner, Su ixi helped them with their howork.
She had seen so many parents on the internet suffering from heart attacks due to tutoring howork, Su ixi was also worried about herself.
Luckily, the siblings were proactive with their howork. Fang Xia’s howork was mostly done at school, and Fang Shuai, because of his soccer training, only started after dinner.
Su ixi watched them do their howork for a while. Fang Xia was truly diligent about studying, handwriting neat, carefully answering every question.
However, Fang Xia was a bit rigid in solving problems and didn’t have Fang Shuai’s strong adaptability.
Fang Shuai was a little careless with his howork, his handwriting a tad sloppy, but he was strong in adaptability.
Su ixi didn’t say much; each child had their own characteristics, and their paths of growth were not fixed. When the ti ca, they would have their realizations.
She only told them to co to her with questions they couldn’t answer—she could still handle elentary school howork.
The siblings liked Su ixi’s approach—she didn’t hover over them, but also didn’t completely let them be. It was just right.
…
On the weekend, Su ixi cleaned the house.
Because the house was big, Fang Xia and Fang Shuai ca over to help.
The three of them busied themselves all morning, cleaning out a big bag of trash, and Fang Shuai volunteered to take it out.
Throwing away large trash required running to the trash cans next to the playground. At nine years old, Fang Shuai wasn’t that tall, and throwing away trash was a bit of a struggle for him.
This scene happened to be witnessed by Bao Min.
Bao Min promptly took out her phone and snapped a picture.
After that day, rumors spread through the community that Su ixi was mistreating the children of a martyr.
And Su ixi was still in the dark. On Sunday, she took the kids to a book-selling event organized by an institution. They bought books wholesale for 10 yuan each, could sell them for any price, and kept the profits or losses.
Su ixi simply thought the event was a good learning experience.
Fang Shuai and Fang Xia also loved the activity. Since Su ixi fronted the wholesale cost, any money earned was theirs to manage, and naturally, they were happy to have so pocket money at their age.
Then, news of the children selling books on the street got back to the community, and more rumors spread that Su ixi was being harsh with the children!
…
In Feng City.
Gu Cheng waited two days without hearing back from Zhou Yuan, only to receive a divorce agreent.
Looking at the divorce agreent, he realized the severity of the situation.
Zhou Yuan truly minded Li Zhen’s presence; she was really angry.
One was his childhood sweetheart and forr girlfriend, the other his new wife. What was he to do?
Zhou Yuan and he were indeed married, and she genuinely liked him. If he divorced Zhou Yuan now, he would be a heartbreaker.
Also, the thought of not seeing Little Tangyuan again was very painful for him.
Was he really supposed to cut ties with Li Zhen?
He couldn’t fool himself; he did feel a little reluctant to let go of Li Zhen. He hadn’t had a girlfriend in so many years, holding on to the fantasy that Li Zhen would co back.
And now she finally had.
Just then, Qiu Yurou called, questioning Gu Cheng, “What’s going on with you and Yuanyuan? Your in-laws said the two of you are getting a divorce?”
Gu Cheng paused before saying, “Mom, Li Zhen has returned to the country, and Yuanyuan doesn’t want to contact her anymore.”
“Li Zhen?” Hearing this na made Qiu Yurou stunned.
Li Zhen was also considered Qiu Yurou’s goddaughter. Years ago, out of respect for her parents’ relationship, Qiu Yurou took her in and raised her, giving her all she could. But then Li Zhen entered a relationship with Gu Cheng, even considering actions that would harm Gu Group.
Li Zhen deeply hurt Qiu Yurou’s heart, and from then on, Qiu Yurou didn’t want to ntion her again, nor did she pressure Gu Cheng to marry.
Qiu Yurou asked, “What is she coming back for?”
“She might be too lonely abroad by herself, and she’s with her daughter who has autism.”
“Whose daughter is she?” Qiu Yurou asked anxiously.
“She’s the child of Li Zhen and her ex-husband, four or five years old.”
Qiu Yurou breathed a sigh of relief; as long as it wasn’t Gu Cheng’s, that was okay. Four or five years ago, Li Zhen was still missing, and Gu Cheng couldn’t see her at all.
“Has she contacted you?” Qiu Yurou asked.
“I arranged a place and a job for her, and arranged a doctor for her daughter, but a woman with a sick child is always struggling, so I would visit her from ti to ti. This angered Zhou Yuan.”
“She brought this upon herself!” Qiu Yurou said angrily.
If Li Zhen had just lived a good life with Gu Cheng back then, being both his goddaughter and his wife, Gu Family would have doted on her endlessly. But she chose to believe lies, treating Gu Family as enemies!
