Outside the gate of the Fu family mansion, Lin Kerou pleaded with the old butler, "Uncle Ning, I don't know when I'll be back after this departure. Please let me see Xiaobao one more time, okay?"
The old butler was taken aback. "You're leaving?"
Lin Kerou nodded, her expression sorrowful. "I originally came back for Xiaobao. Since he is unwilling to forgive me, and Yanci and Yeli are taking good care of him, then... I have nothing to worry about. Rather than staying and suffering, it's better to let go sooner rather than later. It's better for Xiaobao and for me as well."
"Wait."
Judging from Lin Kerou's expression, she didn't seem to be lying. The old butler left a sentence and went straight inside.
A few minutes later, they returned and said, "Come with me."
Taking a deep breath, Lin Kerou lifted her foot and followed.
Pavilions and towers.
A winding corridor.
Every brick and tile is exactly as she remembers it, unchanged.
But this place should have belonged to her.
Having lost both her parents, she has been living with Aunt Yun since she was very young.
The Fu family's old house is where she grew up.
She was the first one to appear beside Fu Yanci.
She was the one who always stayed by his side.
But he never saw her.
But it's okay.
Fu Yanci wasn't blind to her; he was blind to all women equally.
She has plenty of time and patience.
One day, she will make him see her, and have only her in his eyes and heart.
Lin Kerou never expected that despite all her calculations, she would be tricked by Li Li, who seemed like an innocent and harmless little white flower.
"This is fine..."
The old butler's voice pulled Lin Kerou back to reality.
Coming to her senses, she realized that she was in the reception room of the Fu family's old residence, and that Old Madam Fu didn't even seem inclined to see her.
He was seething with hatred.
Thinking of the past, Lin Kerou silently cursed in her heart.
As I stepped forward, I heard Xiao Bao's voice, as if he was talking on the phone with Ye Li.
Lin Kerou paused in her steps.
"Ye Xiaoli, why don't you want my gift? You accepted all the gifts that Great-Grandmother gave you, you're being unfair!"
"Brother Mu, that's not how you show favoritism! Besides, what kind of gift is that? It's so unthoughtful. Next time it's your birthday, I'll give you a card too!"
"...Ye Xiaoli, you liar! Didn't you say that the greatest love you can show a woman is to spend money on her? I've already given you my card, you...you've gone too far!"
"Brother Mu, you're something else! Tsk tsk tsk, you're a quick learner! You should save your money for your future girlfriend. I'll just spend Fu Yanci's money! Besides, I have my own money!"
"Okay... I'll give you a gift next time you come back!"
"good!"
I knew he would speak that night.
I also know that once I start speaking, I will catch up with my peers very quickly.
Ke Lin Ke Rou never expected that Xiao Bao would be so eloquent.
The person he was trying to please wasn't her, but Ye Li.
His clear voice was filled with the liveliness and energy unique to a young boy.
Even before seeing him, Lin Kerou could imagine that Xiao Bao must be beaming with joy right now.
The scene from that night flashed through her mind, and Lin Kerou's already gloomy face turned even more unpleasant.
She had prepared herself mentally before coming, even though there was no way to turn things around. But for the sake of the future and to have a backup plan, she had to play the role of a mother who was leaving in disappointment.
But Lin Kerou didn't expect that Xiao Bao's behavior would endlessly challenge her bottom line.
If she had known this would happen, she shouldn't have been so soft-hearted in the first place.
It's not easy for a newborn baby to survive, but it's incredibly easy to kill him.
He's dead, but the paternity test report is still here.
By then, with Fu Yanci's guilt and Fu Mingzhen's parents making amends, one day the entire Fu family will be in her hands.
Why is she in such a passive position today?
Forcibly suppressing her anger, Lin Kerou waited until she heard "Goodbye, Ye Xiaoli" before taking a deep breath, lifting the curtain, and entering the room.
Their eyes met, and Xiao Bao's bright smile vanished instantly.
His body, which had been clinging to the chair like a mischievous monkey, sat down upright.
Xiao Bao looked up at Lin Kerou and asked, "Grandpa Ning said you're leaving. Is there anything you want to tell me?"
"Xiao Bao..."
Her fingernails dug into her palms, and tears welled up in her eyes.
Lin Kerou sat down in front of Xiaobao, looking puzzled, and asked, "Why? Mommy already knows she was wrong and is trying her best to make it up to you, so why won't you forgive Mommy? Why?"
"You're not my mother!"
Xiao Bao shook his head.
One sentence startled Lin Kerou so much that tears welled up in her eyes. "What...what did you say?"
Her heart clenched violently. In that instant, Lin Kerou almost thought that Xiao Bao knew, and Fu Yanci knew too.
Then Xiaobao pointed to her eyes and said, "You don't see me in your eyes, and... you don't smell like your mother either."
call.
Deep in her heart, she exhaled heavily, and when Lin Kerou looked at Xiao Bao again, she felt as if she were looking at a little monster.
It is said that children's eyes are the purest, able to see things that adults cannot.
Just a moment ago, I was cursing that old hag for being so arrogant and unwilling to even put on a show of politeness.
At that moment, Lin Kerou was extremely grateful that she wasn't there.
"Little Bao, it's Mommy..."
Lin Kerou said with a wronged expression, "You only see Ye Li now, your heart and eyes are full of her, of course you think I'm not good enough. I..."
