Chapter 635: Chapter 634: 634, give birth to a beautiful baby girl

In the photo, a man is dressed in a dark shirt, with a thin grey knitted sweater on top. He is wearing a pair of rimless glasses, looking refined and handsome.

The woman is dressed in a pink knitted dress, with a sweet smile on her face.

As for the little girl, she has two long, cute braids. Her fair, beautiful, chubby little face is very adorable, with big, super cute eyes.

She asked, satisfied, “Huanhuan, send me all the photos.”

“Okay.” Shi Huan posted all the photos in the bestie group chat.

Xiao Yebai glanced at them, then turned around and went back to his study.

…

Finally leaving Lishui Bay, Little Luoluo, sitting in the back seat with a lollipop in her chubby hand, asked curiously, “Huanhuan, who is that uncle?”

Xiao Yebai only left his study when they were about to leave and barely said a word. He went back immediately after taking the photos.

He was so standoffish.

Shi Huan explained with a smile, “That’s your sister Weiyi’s husband.”

“Husband?” Little Luoluo innocently tilted her head, “So, should brother-in-law be Huanhuan’s husband in the future?”

Shi Huan put a hand to her forehead, hastily saying, “Luoluo, your Uncle Chu was just joking, you cannot call him brother-in-law anymore, understand?”

“Then, what should I call him?”

“Call him uncle.”

“Oh.” Little Luoluo obediently agreed, but soon, she had more questions, “Huanhuan, school will start soon, can I live with you?”

“No.”

“Why?” As soon as she heard “no”, Little Luoluo’s delicate face scrunched up.

“Because your mom and dad are back.”

“But I want to live with you.”

Shi Huan felt a tug at her heartstrings, “Then … I’ll come to pick you up when there’s a chance during the holidays, okay?”

“Okay then.” Little Luoluo dropped her head, looking somewhat dejected.

Dad is too busy, and Mom is too.

When she lived with her mom and dad, it was the nanny who took care of her most of the time. At home alone after school, she had no one to talk to.

Poor little kid.

**

Half an hour later, the car drove into an old residential area in the north of the city.

Ever since the Shi Family went bankrupt, Mrs. Shi and her daughter-in-law moved here.

They bought a second-hand, three-bedroom apartment. In all aspects, it naturally couldn’t compare with the villas they owned before.

Mrs. Shi had been complaining about this for five to six years now.

When they got upstairs and out of the elevator, they heard laughter and chitchat.

The old building’s construction was average, and so was the soundproofing. They could hear everything outside.

Shi Huan knocked on the door, and soon, Tu Youran’s voice said, “Huanhuan is here.”

As soon as she opened the door and saw the lollipop in Little Luoluo’s hand, her face fell, “Luoluo, didn’t I tell you not to eat candy?”

Startled, Little Luoluo quickly took the candy out of her mouth.

Tu Youran stretched out her hand to rudely snatch the candy and threw it in the trash can, then she looked at Shi Huan, “Huanhuan, stop spoiling her. It’s not good to be too indulgent with children. She’ll become spoiled and I won’t be able to control her.”

“I’m sorry, Youran, in fact, this is the only one she ate today…”

“Kids love snacks. Do you think she can really tell you how many she ate? Don’t let her fool you! This kid is too smart!”

Shi Huan pursed her lips and stopped speaking.

Little Luoluo also lowered her head and didn’t dare to say anything.

In the living room, Mrs. Shi had a sour face.

Qian Yulin and Shi Minyan on one side were also silent. The joyful atmosphere from a moment ago was gone, as if it had been disrupted.

Not only that.

“You dare to come back?”

The moment Shi Huan came in, Mrs. Shi used her cane to stand up, her voice threatening, raising her cane to interrogate, “I want to ask you, was it you who sabotaged the Zhu Family’s company?”

“Grandma, what do you mean?”

“You’re still playing dumb!” Anger seeped from Mrs. Shi’s whole body, “That’s the family of your aunt’s relative. By messing with them, how will your aunt look in front of her family? How do you make them see us, the Shi Family?”

Tu Youran on one side said, “Enough, Mom. This matter is in the past. I talked to my cousin and his wife, and they said it’s not Huanhuan’s fault.”

But Mrs. Shi immediately retorted, “Look at your aunt. How understanding, tolerant, and considerate she is! Aside from causing trouble and bringing me unhappiness, what else can you do? You’re such a disaster! A monster!”

Shi Huan didn’t respond.

At these moments, the more she replied, the more excited Mrs. Shi would get.

When she returned to the Shi Family from the orphanage at the age of fifteen, she thought Mrs. Shi was just old and had a bad temper.

She later realized that Mrs. Shi simply did not like her.

That makes sense.

After living in an orphanage for so many years, they couldn’t feel close, even with a blood connection.

Moreover, the Shi Family already had an almost perfect Shi Qingge. Shi Qingge didn’t like her, this sister who suddenly appeared, so it was only natural that Mrs. Shi, who doted on Qingge, wouldn’t like her either.

Shi Huan thought she had seen through everything, but…

“Well, if you came today, explain clearly to your aunt what exactly happened! Why treat Zhu Mingpeng so harshly! And why did you send someone to meddle with the Zhu Family’s company afterward! So ruthless!”

Shi Huan patiently explained, “Grandma, I’ve told you, at that time Zhu Mingpeng was making rude remarks. I couldn’t hold back and splashed wine on him. Who knew Chu saw this and felt that as his secretary, I was being bullied, which made him lose face as the boss, so… ”

“You splashed someone with wine in public, and you dare to play the victim here? Could there have been such a string of incidents if you hadn’t started it? I’ve known Zhu for a long time, he’s a good person, very polite…”

Shi Huan remained silent: “…”

Forget it.

Let the old lady vent.

Once she’s done venting, it’ll be fine.

Finally, after scolding for half a day, Madam Shi grumbled, “Alright, since this matter is past, let’s forget it.”

Shi Huan breathed a sigh of relief.

“Your aunt has introduced you to a good guy, his name is Wang Yiming, he’s a radio host, twenty-eight years old this year, about your age, and has a good job. He was your aunt’s college classmate…”

“I don’t want it.” Shi Huan finally couldn’t stand it and interrupted her.

Madam Shi looked at Shi Huan, watching her face showing a myriad of expressions in the short span of time, finally, grim clouds came over, “What do you mean by that?”

“Granny, I’ve said before, I never plan to get married in my life!”

“No way! You must get married!”

“I can take care of myself, I don’t need a man…”

“You’re the granddaughter of the Shi family, if you don’t get married, where am I supposed to put my old face? Should your Grandfather and your Father be criticized in the underworld, too? You’re going to be twenty-five after your birthday, if you don’t get married, you’re a leftover woman! You think earning money is a glory, don’t you? For a woman, not getting married is a joke! No, this year you must find a man and marry me!”

Shi Huan bit her tongue, trying not to speak.

On the side, Shi Minyan couldn’t help but speak, “Mom, Huanhuan is still young, there’s no rush about marriage…”

“What do you know? She is a girl, unlike you guys. It doesn’t matter if a man doesn’t get married after twenty-five, but a woman can’t. There is no room for discussion!” After saying this, Madam Shi immediately ordered Tu Youran on the side, “Youran, get that Xiaowan’s WeChat or something added for her quickly.”

Tu Youran stood up, holding her phone and said, “Huanhuan, scan his WeChat.”

Seeing Shi Huan not responding, she explained with a smile, “Don’t worry, Yiming is my college classmate, his parents are teachers, and he’s quite nice. Rest assured, he’s different from my distant cousin.”

“Did you not hear your Aunt’s words? Hurry up and add the WeChat!” Madam Shi urged impatiently.

Shi Huan took a deep breath, took out her phone, and scanned it quickly.

Having added him as a contact, she immediately said, “It’s getting late, I will go first.”

Just as her words finished, Little Luoluo ran over, her soft little hand holding onto her little finger, asked unwillingly to part, “Huanhuan, are you leaving now?”

Tu Youran looked at her daughter, her fingers unconsciously tightened.

“Yes, I’ll come visit you again when I have the opportunity.”

“Huanhuan, can you not go?” Little Luoluo held tightly onto her finger, with soft and pitiful small voice.

“It’s mealtime, Huanhuan, why don’t you stay for a meal before you go?” Shi Minyan also persuaded.

In the kitchen, the nanny was preparing lunch.

This nanny was hired by Shi Huan for Madam Shi. Qian Yulin couldn’t take care of it all by herself, and she had to go to France to see Shi Qingge from time to time.

“No need, I’ll eat at home.” After Shi Huan said this, she forcibly pulled her own finger away, “Luoluo, I’m going home.”

Little Luoluo pouted her small mouth, could only wave her small hand, “Goodbye, Huanhuan.”

Tu Youran quickly said, “Huanhuan, let me walk you out.”

Madam Shi’s face sank.

It’s just a few steps, what’s there to send?

**

Outside, Shi Huan pressed the elevator button, “Auntie, go back to eat, don’t need to send me.”

However, Tu Youran said, “It’s okay, I’ll accompany you downstairs.”

“…Okay.”

The elevator arrived, and the two walked in one after the other.

The elevator mirror had a reflective effect.

Tu Youran was wearing a goose yellow dress under her coat, stepping on black high-heeled leather shoes. Her chestnut-colored shoulder-length hair was in a gentle style. Her makeup was exquisite, her posture elegant, even her voice was very gentle.

“Huanhuan, you really don’t want a boyfriend…are you dating Chu Xiuhuang?”

“No, the newspaper made it up.”

“That’s good.” Tu Youran heaved a sigh of relief, “Huanhuan, actually I feel quite sorry for you. I really didn’t expect my cousin to be so rude, using the past to hurt you. Don’t worry, Yiming won’t behave this way. You guys can have a good talk, he’s really a nice person. Yes, his WeChat photo is his real photo…”

“There’s no need, Auntie.” Shi Huan couldn’t help but interrupt her, ” I’ve said it before, I really don’t want to get married.”

“Why?” Tu Youran looked at Shi Huan, her eyes soft, but there was a clear scrutiny in them, “Huanhuan, the past is in the past, why do you need to indulge in the past? You should look forward in life. You’re still young, moreover you are beautiful and capable of working. I believe there’ll be good men who will appreciate your merits…”

“No need.” Shi Huan forced a smile, “Auntie, you don’t have to concern yourself with my affairs in the future. I truly don’t want to get married.”

Tu Youran’s eyes quickly traversed several emotions, but her tone was still very gentle, “If you think Yiming is not good enough, I can help you search …”

“It’s not that.” Shi Huan frowned, finally saying, “I might have a phobia.”

“What do you mean?”

Shi Huan said, “I can’t be intimate with men, even a slight touch makes me uncomfortable, even…”

Even violent tendencies.

Last time, Chu Xiuhuang was bitten until his hand was covered in wounds by her.

Tu Youran was a bit stunned, “Huanhuan, so… should I find a psychologist for you?”

“No need.” Shi Huan laughed helplessly, “Just leave it, I think it’s nice being alone. Being unattached and free is great.”

Just as the elevator door opened, she immediately said, “I’m going now, no need to keep me company anymore, goodbye Aunt.”

Before Tu Youran could react, Shi Huan quickly walked off.

Tu Youran stood in the elevator, her face suddenly becoming cold.

Shi Huan, do you really have a phobia?

Or is it because of lingering feelings for Minyan?

But regardless of which it is, Minyan is now my husband, Luoluo is my daughter, this wonderful family of mine cannot change, I will not allow any changes!

So …

Shi Huan, I can only apologize to you.
