Chapter 2507 - 2511: Contradictions of Human Nature
Gu Junzhu patted his little head, "Safety first, understand?"
He looked around: "Where is your Uncle Chong?"
He noticed that only Xueno and Yu Nuo were watching over them, but Wan Chong was not there.
Wan Chong is a very good judge of situations.
If Wan Chong were here and there was danger for Xiao Shumiao, he would notice it early.
With Wan Chong around, he felt more at ease.
"Uncle Chong had an urgent matter and left," Xiao Shumiao looked up at him and said, "Uncle Chong received a phone call, and afterward, his face turned scary."
"Then, Uncle Chong called Brother Xiaocheng over and had him watch us, then he left."
"Later, Brother Xueno and Brother Yu Nuo arrived, but Brother Xiaocheng had something to do, so he left, leaving only Brother Xueno and Brother Yu Nuo to watch over us."
Gu Junzhu frowned slightly, "Your Uncle Chong’s face turned scary after the phone call?"
"Yes," Xiao Shumiao nodded vigorously, "Before the call, Uncle Chong was still smiling at me, but after the call, his face became terrifying, like he was going to kill someone. He called Brother Xiaocheng over and left quickly."
Ye Xingbei: "..."
Left quickly?
What kind of description is that!
Her son narrates in an orderly manner, but sometimes his choice of words is not very appropriate.
"I see," Gu Junzhu patted Xiao Shumiao’s little face, "Alright, go play now."
"Okay!" Xiao Shumiao tilted his head and asked Ye Xingbei, "Mom, is dinner almost ready? I’m hungry!"
"Almost," Ye Xingbei said, "You’ve eaten so many sweets, and you’re still hungry?"
Xiao Shumiao giggled, "I want to eat the delicious food made by Sister Bohe and Sister Wanwan!"
Ye Xingbei tapped his little head, "Just say you’re craving for it, why do you have to say you’re hungry?"
"I am hungry," Xiao Shumiao said, "Mom, call me when dinner is ready, I want to eat meat!"
Ye Xingbei nodded, "Okay, go ahead."
Gu Junzhu, holding his phone, walked to the side and dialed Wan Chong’s number.
The call connected quickly, and Wan Chong’s voice was cold and deep, "Fifth Brother?"
"Yeah," Gu Junzhu asked, "What happened?"
"My stepmother," Wan Chong said through clenched teeth, "She schemed against Chacha, wanting to marry her off to a sick man."
Gu Junzhu raised an eyebrow, "Her injury is healed?"
"She’s discharged and back home, can walk around," Wan Chong said, "So she’s starting to make trouble again."
"How’s your cousin?" Gu Junzhu asked.
Wan Chong said, "For now, she’s fine... but my grandfather actually agreed to let Chacha marry that sick man."
His tone was filled with disappointment.
He is Senior Master Wan’s only grandson, and Senior Master Wan has always loved him dearly, and he has always respected Senior Master Wan.
People say that with a stepmother comes a stepfather.
Living under a stepmother’s hand, life would be tough.
But because of his grandfather’s strength, he didn’t suffer much under his stepmother’s hand.
There have only been two times he was schemed against by his stepmother: once when she signed him up for service, forcing him to leave home.
He willingly accepted it.
The second time, he was framed by his stepmother using the child in her belly, forcing him to leave the place he loved and was proud of, which was his lifelong dream.
Aside from this, his grandfather shielded him completely, and no matter how his stepmother tried to stir things up, she never gained any advantage over him.
