Chen Fang glanced at Boss Li again, her heart pounding with joy. This time, Boss Li should finally see her virtuousness.
There aren't many people left who can effectively educate their children.
"Aunt Fang, your face looks like a monkey's bottom, it's so red!"
“Aunt Fang, did I say something wrong? When did I curse your mother? Didn’t you say it yourself? Your mother is old and told me not to hold it against her. I certainly won’t hold it against her. When people get old, it’s like they’re about to die. I won’t hold a grudge against a dead person.”
Li Yiyi's comment about her being embarrassed by a monkey's butt...
Chen Fang's first glance was still directed at Boss Li, but he didn't receive any response.
Immediately following Li Yiyi's words, Chen Fang's mind was filled with Li Yiyi's curses.
"Li Yiyi~"
"Cough cough cough~"
Just as he shouted it out, Li Yiyi splashed a glass of water at him, choking him and causing him to cough uncontrollably.
"Aunt Fang, your mouth is a bit dirty, let me wash it for you. I heard you talking about manners, but I think you are rather ill-mannered, yelling and shouting in other people's homes. You really are ill-mannered. I don't know how your company selects people."
After cleaning the water from his mouth and nose, Chen Fang's eyes widened when he heard Li Yiyi's last threatening sentence.
"Li Yiyi, you dare?"
"Why wouldn't I dare?"
Li Yi waved her hand and shrugged; she wasn't afraid.
"like..."
Before he could even shout it out, Boss Li made a shushing gesture, and Chen Fang was completely speechless.
"Yi-yi, I'm sorry, it was all my fault just now."
Feeling humiliated, Chen Fang had to bow his head in front of a child.
"Okay, you've admitted your mistake, so get lost!"
"Yi-yi, I..."
"Get out! How can you get out? If you really leave, her mother will never know what she'll do to her. It's all Li Yiyi and Jiang Yuting's fault. If they hadn't been so unreasonable, things would have been settled long ago."
"Yiyi, I came here mainly for you."
Chen Fang softened, acting as if nothing had happened. If it weren't for the water still dripping from his head, Li Yiyi would have wondered if she had entered a parallel universe.
"Yiyi, Aunt Fang is really doing this for your own good. Look at you, you're the only child in your family. Aren't you lonely? Your mother isn't going to have another brother or sister for you. If she did, you wouldn't be left with no one to talk to after school."
He pretended to stroke Li Yiyi's head tenderly, but Li Yiyi stepped aside, her hand freezing in mid-air before she quickly withdrew it.
"Yiyi, Aunt Fang really cares about you. She came here mainly to find you a playmate."
Here it comes, Chen Fang's purpose has been achieved.
Li Yiyi watched as Chen Fang led Chen Chu to her, then feigned gentleness by squatting down. Having witnessed Chen Fang's vulnerable reaction, and looking at the scene before her, Li Yiyi felt a sense of disorientation.
"Yiyi, how about Aunt Fang finds you a younger brother? Your mother won't give you one, so Aunt Fang will find you one."
Chen Fang was genuinely worried about her, and Li Yiyi was torn between telling him the truth.
After thinking about it, Li Yiyi felt she should be more honest.
"Aunt Fang, it's not that my mother couldn't give birth, it's that my father couldn't."
After saying it aloud, Li Yiyi felt a little awkward, and under Chen Fang's shocked gaze, she spoke again.
"Aunt Fang, I misspoke just now. It's not that my father is no good, it's that my father is broken."
With a click,
Li Yiyi sensed a murderous aura behind her and turned around. She saw her frail old father, whom she was protecting, staring at her with a livid face, while her mother stood by, gloating.
Dad, don't blame me, I was just telling the truth.
The moment she begged for mercy, Li Yiyi realized that if she had another chance to choose, she would decide to be a dishonest child.
"Yi-yi, it's...it's okay."
Chen Fang's voice saved her; Li Yiyi looked at Chen Fang with the eyes of someone looking at an angel.
Thank you, Chen Fang, you are such a good person.
"Yi-yi, it's not your father's fault that you can't have children."
Li Yiyi nodded vigorously. She was right, absolutely right. It wasn't her father's fault that she couldn't have children; it was the fault of Old Man Li and Old Woman Li.
If it weren't for saving Old Lady Li and Old Man Li, her father would still be perfectly fine.
"Yiyi, Aunt Fang really cares about you."
In just a few minutes, Chen Fang's feelings shifted from shock and sadness to heartache for Boss Li.
The upright and indomitable Li Laoda must have been ridiculed by Jiang Yuting countless times.
"Um."
Faced with the concern of strangers, Li Yiyi really didn't know what to do, so she could only express it with indifference. Behind her, Boss Li's gaze was practically burning her alive; she needed to use indifference to balance things out.
"Yiyi, Aunt Fang knows how hard it is for you. It's too difficult without playmates. How about this, Chen Chu's household registration is a problem. Why don't you persuade your parents to transfer Chen Chu's household registration to theirs?"
"After we move here, Aunt Fang's little Yi Yi will have a younger brother and a playmate. The household registration issue will be resolved, and Chen Chu can go to school with you. Yi Yi, what do you say?"
Despite Chen Fang's eloquent and persuasive words, Li Yiyi remained unmoved, and even felt a slight urge to laugh.
So that's what Chen Fang's purpose was?
Why do you have to establish your authority and make people feel good right away? Isn't that exhausting? Why can't you just say it directly?
"Yiyi, what do you think of Aunt Fang's idea?"
Okay, great, it's good to treat everyone like fools.
"Aunt Fang, what about from now on? Does that mean Chen Chu will always be registered under our household name?"
Li Yiyi assured her that she was just asking casually, but seeing Chen Fang's excited expression, she knew he had misunderstood.
