Chapter 178 The Noble Boss
"Mom, his name is Xiao Rui. His parents died early and he is homeless and often bullied."
"When I came back, I happened to see him being bullied by many half-grown kids. Seeing how pitiful he was, I brought him back. I hope you can adopt him."
Hearing this, Shen Wan's attention fell on the little guy again.
[Tsk, no wonder I noticed this little guy with my spiritual power, it turns out he really has a connection with my family.]
[My second brother not only picked up a child out of the blue, but also asked my mother to adopt him. This is not his usual style.]
"Hasn't Second Brother always been indifferent to other people's lives? When did he become so kind?"
[This is really weird...]
Chen Yaoxing: “…”
My younger sister always says that he is not a good person. Is he really that bad?
It seems like he didn't do anything bad, right?
Chen Yaoxing touched the tip of his nose, feeling a little guilty and uncertain.
After a moment, he suppressed all his thoughts, looked at Madam Shen flatteringly, and asked, "Mother, what do you think?"
Mrs. Shen did not answer immediately, but looked at the little guy.
The little guy was covered in dirt and tatters, and his face couldn't be seen clearly, but many scars could be seen. His eyes were surprisingly bright, and he was looking at her without blinking.
What a poor little guy, Madam Shen felt inexplicably soft in her heart, and she couldn't help but think of Shen Wan's words that day.
Although this little guy has a noble fate, he is also very fierce. I wonder if adopting him will bring any trouble to the Shen family.
She walked up to the little guy, bent down and squatted in front of him, and said gently, "Your name is Xiao Rui, right? How old are you this year?"
The little guy pursed his lips. It was clearly the first time they met, but he didn't seem shy at all.
He looked at Madam Shen, shook his head, and said uncertainly, “Four years old, or maybe five.”
As soon as these words came out, Mrs. Shen's eyes were instantly sour.
I don’t even know how old I am. Maybe not only are my parents dead, but I’m afraid there are no other adults around me either.
It is hard to imagine how difficult his life must be for a child of such young age to start living alone.
She suppressed her emotions and continued to ask, "Do you have any other relatives at home?"
The little guy shook his head.
Madam Shen sighed and reached out to touch his head gently. The little guy subconsciously wanted to hide, but finally held back and let Madam Shen touch him.
Listening to the conversation between Mrs. Shen and the little guy, Shen Wan's mind began to fly again.
Most great people have a rough childhood.
[To put it another way, only by experiencing all the suffering and hardships of life can one be inspired to devote oneself to doing great things.]
[This kind of people are often more likely to succeed than ordinary people. ]
[Having experienced numerous hardships, he has developed a will of steel, and nothing can easily bring him down.]
If this doesn't work, where is justice?
Everyone: “…”
Hmmmm, that makes sense!!!!
The little guy's eyes moved slightly, and he secretly glanced at the little baby in someone's arms, and a dark color flashed across his eyes.
Suddenly, someone held my other hand.
He came back to his senses and turned his head to see Mrs. Shen looking at him with a smile, leading him towards the baby.
"Xiao Wan'er, what do you think of this little brother? How about letting him be your brother?"
Mrs. Shen reached out and touched Shen Wan's little face, and asked her little milk bag's opinion with a chuckle.
She knew that her abilities were limited, and she had no ability to avoid risks for the Shen family when facing such a unique person, so she did not dare to agree outright.
Since Xiao Wan'er knew that the little guy had a unique fate, she should also know whether the evil in his fate would affect the Shen family.
She didn't expect the Shen family to benefit from the little guy's success in the future, she just hoped that he wouldn't bring disaster to the Shen family.
If the little guy was destined to be doomed, she would never dare to provoke him.
Yaoxing is now busy and tired every day, and the Shen family is walking on thin ice. Isn't it all for the purpose of changing the fate of the Shen family to be wiped out?
How could she dare to sow the seeds of destruction for the Shen family with her own hands?
"Okay, if he's the only one left in his family, then I'll adopt him if I want."
[I just wanted to see if his fate would change after we adopted him.]
[I want to see how powerful he will be when he grows up.]
[Although he has bad luck in his life, he'll be fine with me around.]
[It's just a small evil star, we can just suppress it. It definitely won't affect our Shen family...]
As she was thinking, Shen Wan suddenly thought of something extraordinary and looked at Madam Shen with wide eyes.
"No, no, Mom, why are you asking me? Isn't this your decision?"
【Why do you ask me this? 】
[Alright, alright, don't think too much about it. Just think of it as Mom's respect for me. Suddenly, I'm going to have a brother. This is definitely a matter where you should ask for my opinion.]
[But the question is, how should I tell my mother my answer? ]
[I got it, so I'll just smile. When my mother sees me smile, she'll know I'm happy. So the question is, why am I happy? Of course, it's because I agree with this proposal.]
Shen Wan hooked Shen Qingyi's neck with one hand and stretched out the other hand towards Madam Shen, showing her a big smile with a sound.
[I'm so cute, I smile so brightly, and I even laugh out loud, so Mom must understand, right?]
Everyone: “…”
Several people couldn't help laughing at her inner voice, and tried their best to suppress the corners of their lips that were about to turn up. Shen Qingyi had a very hard time holding back and almost laughed out loud.
My little sister’s inner thoughts, why are they always so interesting?
She could hardly bear it any longer; if she continued to endure it, the corners of her mouth would crack.
In a corner where Shen Wan couldn't see, Shen Qingyi was laughing wildly.
Xiao Rui pursed his lips, looked at Shen Qingyi with his dark eyes, then looked at Shen Yaoxing and Madam Shen, with a strange emotion flashing across his eyes.
"Hey, Xiaowan'er is smiling so happily, it seems that she likes her new brother very much."
Madam Shen coughed, tried to put on an elegant smile, and spoke softly with her voice down.
Hearing this, Shen Wan nodded and shook her head frantically in her heart.
"Oh, you really do understand what I mean. That's great. Please keep it up. But you misunderstood me about liking my new brother."
As for this little guy, I have a bit of pity and interest in him, but I can't say I like him.
Mrs. Shen: “…”
She ignored Shen Wan's thoughts and bent down to look at the well-behaved little guy beside her.
"Xiao Rui, are you willing to stay in our house and be my son?"
"I can promise you that as long as you are my son, I will treat you as my own and treat you well to the best of my ability."
As for treating everyone equally, she didn't dare to say it.
She couldn't guarantee that if something happened in the future, she would be able to treat Xiao Rui and her four children equally.
After hearing her words, the little guy's face became stern and he looked serious. Apart from seriousness and earnestness, there was no other emotion in his expression.
The room was very quiet, everyone looked at him quietly, waiting patiently for his answer.
"Okay, I do."
Finally, the little guy nodded vigorously and spoke solemnly.
Mrs. Shen cried with joy and reached out to hold him in her arms.
It was very strange. Before this, she only had sympathy and pity for the little guy, but after the little guy agreed to be her son, she actually felt excitement, heartache and other emotions. Her mood was so complicated that it was indescribable.
Evening~
Shen Yuanhong and Shen Mu arrived. Mrs. Shen brought the little guy out to identify him and told the father and son about his situation.
The little guy has been washed clean, and his torn and dirty clothes have been changed into new ones. His little face is as delicate as a piece of jade and he is very pretty.
"Husband, I have decided to adopt Xiao Rui. Xiao Wan'er also likes her new brother very much. I hope that you will treat Xiao Rui as your own child in the future and love him as if he were your own child."
Without waiting for Shen Yuanhong to express his opinion, she continued, "I know that such a big matter should be discussed with my husband..."
"But I thought that my husband is kind and loving and would not object, so I took the initiative. I hope my husband will not blame me?"
Shen Yuanhong: "..."
With such a high hat put on him, how could he object?
Besides, Xiao Wan'er has been dragged out. If he objects, wouldn't he become a bad guy?
What if Xiao Wan'er doesn't like him anymore in the future?
"As long as the lady is happy."
As long as it is not his wife's illegitimate child, there is nothing he cannot tolerate.
