Trial Marriage Husband: Need to Work Hard
Translator: Yunyi Editor: Yunyi
Whenever Little Eggshell wanted to buy something, Su Youran would try to teach her self control by not buying it for her, but Elder Nangong would be extremely generous and buy it for her.
Little Eggshell wanted to play with the Mo Twins without any cares, but Su Youran did not allow it. Yet, Elder Nangong helped her find an opportunity to interact with them.
Gradually things began to change. On the surface, Little Eggshell appeared like she still had a good bond with her mother, but in reality, she kept all her secrets from Su Youran and only shared them with Elder Nangong. After all, her great-grandfather was the one that doted on her and gave her everything she wanted.
Nangong Quan slowly noticed the change in Little Eggshell, so he tried to speak to his daughter, but she simply evaded his questions.
âDaddy, youâre so annoying!â
In the past, the father and daughter only had each other, so Little Eggshell cared a lot about her father, but now, there was more than one person that doted on her. As a girl, she naturally experienced some changes.
The biggest change, was that she was now closest to Elder Nangong.
Su Youran was meant to be the mother that she picked out herself.
But, Su Youran began to feel a little stressed. She could tell that Little Eggshell was slowly building a wall between them, but she had no idea how to communicate with her.
Was Little Eggshell unhappy that she had asked her not to play with the Mo Twins?
So, Su Youran told Nangong Quan about her concerns, âI feel like our daughter is slowly drifting away from us. Have you noticed it?â
After Nangong Quan heard this question, he smiled helplessly, âIâve tried to speak to Little Eggshell about it, but she refused to talk to me.â
âHow did things change so much in such a short period of time?â
Su Youran felt she was to blame. If she didnât say the things that she did to Little Eggshell, they would not have grown so apart.
âDonât think too much. Iâll speak to Little Eggshell again later tonight.â
Little Eggshell continued to be obsessed with the twins, but when she returned home, she completely refused to speak to her parents.
Because of this, Nangong Quan waited until Little Eggshell returned home and called her into the study room.
âDaddy, Iâve still got a lot of homework to do.â
âStand right there, who said you could leave?â Nangong Quan asked furiously. âNangong Cai, have you not noticed how much youâve changed lately? Youâre no longer close to Mommy and Daddy. Are we your enemies now?â
After hearing this, Little Eggshell turned around and looked unhappily at her father, âThatâs because Daddyâs no longer the same Daddy!â
âYouâre still young, you wouldnât understand.â
âYou assume I donât understand, but I understand everything!â Little Eggshell yelled before she threw open the study room door and stormed out.
Su Youran was standing right outside. As soon as she saw Little Eggshell, she instinctively stopped her, but Little Eggshell ended up biting her on the arm, âItâs all your fault! Youâre the one that made my Daddy not like me anymore.â
Su Youran was a little confused and flustered. She had no idea why Little Eggshell would suddenly say this to her.
At this time, Nangong Quan hurried out and said to Su Youran, âLet her go.â
âBut...â
âYouran, my Little Eggshell isnât like this. She has too many people that dote on her now, so sheâs no longer the Little Eggshell that I went through thick and thin with.â
After hearing this, Little Eggshell wiggled out of Su Youranâs arms and returned to her room without looking back.
At that time, Elder Nangong had just arrived upstairs and saw the scene unfold, âWhen you have time, show your child more love, not blame.â
âIf Grandfather wasnât playing tricks in secret, Iâm sure my Little Eggshell wouldnât have changed so much,â Nangong Quan said. âGrandfather, Little Eggshell is my daughter; your great-granddaughter. You canât turn my daughter into a chess piece to use as a tool for revenge.â
âThis is what you owe me!â Elder Nangong said before he turned around to walk back down the stairs. However, Nangong Quan stopped him.
âYou can take other things, but you canât take Little Eggshell!â
âYouâre hopeless around your daughter now, arenât you?â Elder Nangong snickered as he brushed away Nangong Quanâs hand. âWhen you have time, you should focus on making a few more kids with your wife. From now on, Iâll take care of Little Eggshell for you.â
Nangong Quan grabbed onto Elder Nangongâs shirt, but Su Youran stopped him, âQuan, you canât do that...â
The old man smirked and walked away. There was nothing that Nangong Quan could do, âIt was my fault for letting a wolf into this house...â
âIf I knew this day would come, I would have never let him back into this family!â
âDonât worry, weâll think of another way.â
Little Eggshell had completely lost trust in her parents, but there was nothing they could do, it wasnât like they could forcefully lock her up...
Moreover, Little Eggshell was completely converted by her great-grandfather now. She only allowed the old man to take her to and from school and cried and screamed whenever So Youran offered.
As this became a regular thing, the little genius, Mo Zichen, began to get suspicious. Elder Nangong was coming to the school more and more, and whenever he did, he often stared at him and his brother.
Mo Zichen was naturally cautious, so he notified Tangning when he got home.
This time, it was Tangningâs turn to restrict her kids from getting too close to Little Eggshell.
After all, Elder Nangong was a ticking time bomb.
Mo Zixi was cheerful and carefree, just like a typical child, but Mo Zichen was different.
So, Tangning specifically instructed Mo Zichen, âZichen, Mommy doesnât dislike Little Eggshell, but I canât let anything that may threaten your safety exist. So, keep an eye on your brother and donât let him get too close to Little Eggshell, OK?â
Mo Zichen nodded his head.
He seemed to understand everything.
âGood.â
Because of his discussion with his mother, Mo Zichen deliberately woke up earlier than usual the next day, so he could arrive at school at a different time to Little Eggshell. Then, during their recess and lunch break, he played with other kids and dragged his brother along with him so he couldnât go to look for Little Eggshell. Finally, after school, he decided to stay an extra half an hour to learn how to paint from his teacher. He did all this to avoid seeing Little Eggshell.
As a result, Little Eggshell gradually saw the brothers less and less.
In the end, she went to look for the brothers in their classroom with candy. However, Mo Zichen dragged his brother away and said to Little Eggshell, âFrom now on, stop looking for my brother. Youâre annoying!â
Little Eggshellâs smile froze as she held back her tears.
âAlso, the cakes you keep giving us, they donât taste good!â
âI donât want to be friends with you. Please stay away from us.â
Not many kids could express themselves as clearly as Mo Zichen; it was completely unexpected of his age.
But, he managed to say what he wanted in an extremely cold and fierce tone.
As a result, Little Eggshell burst into tears and left...
