Chapter 123 Parent-Child Activities
"I'm sorry, I just remembered some bad things. I've been a bit emotionally unstable lately. I'm sorry I scared you." Yunzhi cried, her eyes swollen like walnuts, and forced a smile.
"It's okay. If you're feeling stressed, I can recommend a doctor to you," Cheng Shuyan suggested earnestly.
Yunzhi's lips twitched twice. "I don't think I need it for the time being."
The atmosphere between the two was somewhat awkward.
Cheng Shuyan coughed lightly and put the high heels she had been carrying on the ground. "By the way, try on these high heels. I think they suit you very well. If they do, you can take them with you. They're not of any use to me anyway. Don't worry, they're all new. Otherwise, I wouldn't dare give them to you."
These aren't new. In her previous life, when Cheng Shuyan gave her these shoes, she was already in the late stages of bone cancer, and her feet were so thin that she couldn't fit into them at all.
She remembered that she had thrown the shoes into a trash can outside the villa area.
Did Cheng Shuyan go rummage through the trash can?
But when she thought about his casual remark about giving her a gift, Yunzhi felt a little down.
For Cheng Shuyan now, these useless things are things he can give to anyone.
But then she realized she was being a bit dramatic.
It was something she threw away in the first place, so what business is it of hers who Cheng Shuyan wants to give it to?
Yunzhi shook off that bitterness.
What she didn't know was that Cheng Shuyan's cousin, Jiang Ning, had taken a fancy to one of the decorative items here a couple of days ago and had asked Cheng Shuyan for it several times, but had been refused each time.
Cheng Shuyan himself didn't know why the thought of giving away these things that he had no impression of and were of no use to others made his heart feel like it was being cut by a knife, but it didn't hurt when he gave them to Yunzhi.
"Thank you, Mr. Cheng." Yunzhi smiled brightly, her eyes crinkling, which made Cheng Shuyan stare at her for a moment. After he came to his senses, he turned his head away shyly.
He pressed one hand to his chest.
Her heart pounded rapidly in her chest, making her palms go numb.
Yunzhi did not notice Cheng Shuyan's unusual behavior.
She half-squatted down to put on her shoes.
As she bent over, a strand of black hair casually fell to one side of her face.
Soon, she put on the shoes that were originally made for her, but Cheng Shuyan had made them according to the shape of her feet before she got sick.
"suitable for you."
Cheng Shuyan nodded.
Yunzhi lowered her head, her eyes filled with affection.
Just then, Cheng Shuyan's phone suddenly rang.
He frowned and looked impatient when he saw the caller ID.
He turned aside to answer the phone, and as soon as he picked it up, Cheng Chuyu's sharp questioning voice rang in his ears.
"Brother, I heard from Jiang Ning that you have a girlfriend? And she's not even in our circle. Brother, I'm not trying to criticize you, but some young people these days will do anything for money. You may not care, but don't make us a laughing stock in the industry."
Cheng Chuyu's voice was high-pitched and thin, with strong penetrating power. Even though Yunzhi was some distance away from Cheng Shuyan, she could still hear her voice, but she couldn't make out what she was saying.
Even though Yunzhi couldn't hear clearly, she knew that Cheng Chuyu hadn't said anything nice.
Cheng Shuyan's face darkened, and he hung up the phone immediately.
Before Cheng Chuyu could finish speaking, she heard the busy tone of a disconnection. Furious, she threw her phone out and went berserk in the room.
On the other side, Cheng Shuyan smiled shyly at Yunzhi.
"Harassing phone calls."
Yunzhi smiled and didn't expose him. She glanced at the time and said, "Mr. Cheng, it's getting late, I'll be going now."
Cheng Shuyan then noticed that it was almost dark outside.
"I send you."
Yunzhi did not refuse, after all, it was indeed difficult to get a taxi here.
Cheng Shuyan escorted Yunzhi home. Yunzhi wanted to invite him in for a chat, but just then, his phone rang.
When Cheng Shuyan saw the caller ID, the corners of her lips, which had been turned up, instantly drooped down.
He didn't answer the phone, casually pressed the mute button, and put the phone back in his pocket.
"Miss Yun, I'll be going now."
He left in a hurry without even waiting for Yunzhi's reply.
For the next two days, Yunzhi stayed home to recover from her injury and took the opportunity to look for a suitable building to open a new company.
If not, building a house would take too long, so Yunzhi prefers to buy land.
Friday.
Yunzhi was on an inspection trip when she passed by Yeze's kindergarten.
To her surprise, even though it was school time, she saw Ye Ze squatting at the kindergarten gate, hugging his legs and crying pitifully, his eyes red and swollen, and the dinosaur backpack on his back trembling.
There was no one around.
Yunzhi frowned, took out her phone, snapped a picture, and then pushed open the door and went downstairs.
"Little friend, why are you alone again? Where are your parents?"
Yunzhi walked up to Ye Ze, half-squatted down, and asked gently.
Ye Ze looked up, blinked his tearful eyes, and it took him a while to recognize Yun Zhi. When he saw her, he cried even louder, and with a wail, he rushed into Yun Zhi's arms, wiping her with tears and snot.
Yunzhi's hands hovered in the air, and her smile froze.
Are they that close?
How come she didn't know before that Ye Ze was such a friendly person?
Tsk, what a waste of a piece of clothing.
Yunzhi suppressed her true feelings, gently patted his back with one hand, and held a tissue in the other to gently wipe away his tears.
Ye Ze cried until he hiccuped, but he still didn't forget to thank her.
"Thank you, hiccup, thank you, Auntie."
"Sweetie, tell Auntie what happened that made you cry so sadly?"
Could something have happened to Ye Chengyan? If it really is Ye Chengyan, that would be good.
Yunzhi thought with a hint of schadenfreude.
"Next Monday, the teacher said that parents have to participate in a parent-child competition, but I don't have a mother. Without a mother, I can't win first place."
Ye Ze became more and more heartbroken as he spoke.
He has been competitive since he was a child, and he feels terrible whenever he thinks about other children who are not as good as him winning against him.
Yunzhi looked at Ye Ze with a complicated expression. Just like his father, Ye Chengyan, he was petty and narrow-minded.
"Then let Aunt Yu go with you. Maybe Aunt Yu will really become your mother in the future."
Yu Baisu probably really wants to participate in the parent-child activities at Ye Ze Kindergarten with Ye Chengyan.
After all, everyone in the elite kindergarten is an acquaintance. If she participates in the kindergarten's parent-child activities as Ye Ze's mother, it would be tantamount to Ye Chengyan announcing her identity in public.
As long as Ye Ze mentions it, Yu Baisu will not refuse.
To everyone's surprise, after Yunzhi finished speaking, Yeze looked shocked, staring at Yunzhi with wide eyes in disbelief. Then he shook his head like a rattle drum, "I don't want her to be my mother."
