Chen Mu's mother was embarrassed and at a loss for words after hearing what Qu's sister-in-law said.

"Um... I've come in person to apologize."

Aunt Qu looked at her suspiciously, and Chen Mu's mother immediately held out the gift in her hand.

"Look, I really came here to apologize, not to cause trouble."

Aunt Qu glanced at Su Fei, who nodded slightly to her, and then Aunt Qu entered the room.

"You can wear those pink slippers. They were just washed yesterday and they're clean."

Chen Mu's mother nodded slightly. "Thank you."

Before she came, her husband repeatedly warned her not to mess things up, otherwise their family would have no way to recover.

Sophie put the gift aside and spoke to her.

"Please have a seat."

Chen Mu's mother nodded quickly, "Thank you, Auntie."

Aunt Qu poured a cup of hot water and placed it in front of her.

"Please have some water."

Chen Mu's mother thanked her again, saying, "Thank you."

Aunt Qu looked at Sophie with disbelief, surprised by her behavior. Sophie, not wanting to discuss it in front of the guests, simply shook her head slightly. Aunt Qu understood, telling her to relax, and then nodded slightly in return.

After class, Shen Shiyi received a WeChat message from Aunt Qu. She opened it and was stunned.

Shen Shiyi: Chen Mu's mother came to apologize? What kind of move is this?

For a moment she didn't understand, but after thinking about it carefully, she realized. Chen Li probably didn't want to make a big deal out of it. He also cared about his future, so he came to apologize and apologize to her.

Having figured it out, Shen Shiyi smiled. People are always driven by self-interest and avoid harm; they're so realistic. If it were an ordinary person, they would probably just have to accept their bad luck.

After class, Shen Shiyi went to her office and began working on her class schedule. As this was her first time teaching a real class, she still lacked experience and needed to take more notes and prepare her lessons more thoroughly.

She had just finished preparing her lesson when she suddenly remembered something.

Shen Shiyi: How did they know her home address?

With this question in mind, I took out my phone and dialed a number.

Chen Li didn't answer when he saw it was an unfamiliar number. When it rang a second time and it was the same number, he answered it with some confusion.

Hello.

Shen Shiyi's cold voice rang out, "Hello, I am Shen Shiyi."

Chen Li was startled and quickly put down what he was doing. "Hello, Colonel Shen."

Chen Li: Goodness, why did they suddenly call him?

"Your wife came to my house to apologize?"

Chen Li was taken aback. "Oh, right."

Chen Li: Is there something wrong with this?

"Um... Colonel, is there something wrong?"

Shen Shiyi understood and said softly, "It's okay, I'll hang up now."

After she hung up the phone, Chen Li stood there stunned. When he got home that evening, he saw his wife feeding their son and immediately asked her what was wrong.

"Honey, how are you?"

Chen Mu's mother explained the whole story in great detail, and Chen Li pondered for a while after listening.

After the incident involving Chen Li's son, other parents approached Chen Mu's mother. Feeling immense pressure, Chen Mu's mother waited for her husband to return home and explained the situation to him. Chen Li looked at his wife speechlessly.

"Honey, you should use your brain next time you go out. I just finished appeasing people and sorting things out at home, and now you want me to help other people? Do you think we're living too comfortably?"

Chen Mu's mother, after being scolded by her husband, dared not utter a word.

"But I already said I'd help."

Upon hearing this, Chen Li immediately put down his chopsticks and refused to eat, slamming the door as he entered the bedroom. Chen Mu had never seen her husband so angry, and she trembled with fear.

Feeling agitated in his room, Chen Li lit a cigarette. Only after the cigarette burned out did his frustration ease somewhat.

He walked out of the room, then returned to the dining table, picked up his chopsticks, and began to eat. Seeing that his wife still wasn't moving, he grew increasingly angry.

"Why aren't you moving? Do you want me to feed you?" You're really more trouble than you're worth, so indecisive.

Upon hearing this, Chen Mu's mother quickly picked up her bowl and chopsticks and began to eat slowly and deliberately. After she finished eating cautiously, Chen Li spoke again.

"I'll go sound out their opinions, but I can't guarantee whether it will work out or not." He didn't have the guts to make a decision for a senior colonel.

Upon hearing this, Chen Mu's mother nodded slightly.

"good."

Chen Li, thinking that his son would be graduating from kindergarten soon, specifically instructed his wife.

"Starting today, keep a close eye on Mumu and don't let him cause trouble. Also, maintain a good relationship with Shen Zhifan; either way, it won't hurt us."

Chen Mu's mother nodded repeatedly, "Honey, I understand."

From then on, Chen Mu took the initiative to seek out Shen Zhifan to play with him.

On this sunny day, Chen Mu, who was indoors, took the initiative to share the snacks his mother had brought with Shen Zhifan.

"Shen Zhifan, these are snacks my mom bought for me. They're really delicious. How about I give them to you as an apology?"

Seeing Chen Mu standing in front of his desk, Shen Zhifan spoke expressionlessly.

"No, thank you, you can take it back and eat it yourself." He didn't want to talk to the troublemaking kid.

Disappointed, Chen Mu returned to his seat. For several days in a row, Chen Mu was rejected by Shen Zhifan.

When Aunt Qu picked him up from school, she noticed the disappointment in Chen Mu's eyes. Back home, Shen Zhifan went to his room, and Aunt Qu looked at Su Fei and spoke.

"Sister Fei, let me tell you, that Chen Mu has been acting strangely lately. He's been giving our Fanfan snacks for the past few days, but Fanfan has refused them all."

Sophie, who was reading, was stunned. "Did Fanfan say anything to you?"

Aunt Qu shook her head. "No."

Sophie thought for a moment and said, "Let's not worry about that for now, just make sure Fanfan is safe."
