Chapter 108: Chapter 108 - 108 Guilt

108 Guilt

Shen Nian wanted to resolve the misunderstanding between Shen Yin and Lian Jing, so he quietly retreated to Shen Yin’s side. He held his phone and dialed Lian Jing’s number.

Lian Jing picked up the phone. Before he could say anything, he heard the woman’s mocking voice. “Lu Chen, why are you pretending to be so love-struck? Do you think I’ll believe you? Don’t forget that you forced me to sign the divorce agreement six years ago.”

“Yin Yin, I know it’s useless for me to say anything now, but I really regret it. Can you give me another chance?” Lu Chen somehow gathered the courage to walk forward and hold Shen Yin’s hand.

Shen Nian nimbly slapped his hand away and shouted coldly, “You’re not allowed to touch my mother!”

A trace of pain flashed across Lu Chen’s eyes. Looking at Shen Yin’s cold expression, he could not reconcile her with the young girl he remembered, who had followed him around everywhere.

!!

How could this be!

Ever since she left, it was as if he was possessed. He had thought of her often. Without the girl who was always shadowing him, he suddenly felt at a loss.

Six years later, he had finally found her, but she had already given birth to someone else’s child…

Lu Chen squatted down and looked at Shen Nian, who was puffed up in rage. His heart ached. He wanted to pat the child’s head, but Shen Nian avoided him in disdain. He could only retract his hand awkwardly and force himself to smile gently. “Nian Nian, I’ll treat you like my own son in the future. Your mother’s current boyfriend is Lian Jing, but the Lian family won’t accept you. Let me take care of you and your mother.”

“You’re spouting nonsense!” Shen Nian glared at him. His small hand, which was holding the cell phone tightly, turned red. “My father would never abandon us!”

“Father?” Lu Chen looked at Shen Yin in a daze. He pressed the tip of his tongue against the base of his teeth and gritted his teeth. “Don’t tell me that the man from six years ago was Lian Jing!”

“So what if it’s him?” Shen Yin frowned impatiently and pointed at the door. “Please leave immediately, or Lian Jing will beat you up again when he sees you!”

“Good, very good.” Lu Chen looked confused. The huge amount of information had caused his brain to go blank. He only nodded mechanically and muttered “good” countless times before leaving the ward like a zombie.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Shen Nian heaved a long sigh of relief after he left. Afraid that Shen Yin would find out that he had secretly called his father, he hurriedly hung up the phone as if nothing had happened. Then, he put his arm around Shen Yin’s shoulder and comforted her. “Mom, don’t be angry. I’ll go wash fruits for you.”

“Nian Nian is the best.” Shen Yin pinched his nose gently. Then, the mother and son ate some fruits that the butler had brought.

The butler walked in. “Miss Shen, Old Master wants you and Young Master to have breakfast first. You don’t have to wait for him.”

Shen Yin said worriedly, “But Grandpa musn’t skip breakfast.”

The butler was stunned for a moment. Seeing Shen Yin’s worried expression, he thought that she wanted to about Miss Lian’s injuries, but it turned out that she was worried about this. He was caught between laughter and tears. “Miss Shen, don’t worry. Old Master ate over there, so he asked me to inform you.”

Only then did Shen Yin nod in relief.

Shen Yin happily opened the thermos and arranged the dishes neatly in front of Shen Yin. “Mommy, hurry up and eat. After you finish, I’ll accompany you to the backyard of the hospital for a walk to help you digest.”

While they were eating happily, Lian Jing was having a hard time.

He looked at the disconnected call on his screen and thought of what he had said to that woman that day. He instantly regretted it.

He was not the kind of person who easily lost his temper, but every time he faced Shen Yin, he would feel inexplicably frustrated.

This restlessness intensified. It could only be relieved by hugging her tightly.

Zhong Xin carefully looked at Lian Jing’s expression and deliberated. “President Lian, this person called Lu Chen is pestering Miss Shen. Should we send someone…”

Lian Jing looked up at him, his eyes cold.

Zhong Xin immediately understood. He made a call and walked over to Lian Jing’s side with a smile. “President Lian, do you want to go to the hospital to see Miss Shen today?”

Of course, Lian Jing wanted to go, but the last time he had seen her, the two of them had such a big fight and he had said all those things. Of course he was too embarrassed to see her again.

He clenched his fists and coughed lightly. His eyes glanced at the bandage on it. Under it was the wound he had incurred when he had lost his temper with that woman.

Zhong Xin rolled his eyes and suddenly had a stroke of inspiration. “President Lian, you should go to the hospital to get your injuries treated.”
