Chapter 176 Bullying a woman, how shameful!
My daughter's tiny fists rained down on me, but it didn't hurt at all.
But Fu Siyan felt as if each falling fist was striking his heart.
He stared blankly at his daughter, then slowly released his grip on Shen Qingshu's hand.
The man's earlier assertive demeanor had completely vanished.
Shen Qingshu withdrew her hand, bent down and picked up her daughter.
She held her daughter in her arms, her voice gentle, "Don't worry, Xiao Anning, Mommy's fine."
Little Anning hugged Shen Qingshu's neck, her little face both cute and fierce, glaring at Fu Siyan, "A real man shouldn't bully a woman, shame on you!"
Fu Siyan looked at his daughter, his Adam's apple bobbing with difficulty.
He wanted to say something to coax his daughter, but she had already buried her angry little face in the crook of Chen Qingshu's neck.
"Mom, I don't like him!"
The little girl's voice was clearly filled with anger, and it even sounded a bit like she was about to cry.
Shen Qingshu felt extremely distressed.
Although Xiao Anning is optimistic and cheerful, she is still only a four-year-old child. It's shocking that she witnessed her parents arguing and even hitting each other...
This scene must have been quite impactful for Xiao Anning.
Shen Qingshu felt a pang of guilt, blaming herself for scaring the child with her impulsive actions.
She gently stroked her daughter's back with one hand, looked at Fu Siyan, and said in a cold voice, "You can leave now. Don't come to Yun Gui again."
Fu Siyan pursed his lips, his dark eyes fixed on Shen Qingshu.
After a moment, he responded softly, "Okay."
Shen Qingshu, carrying her daughter, turned and walked into the house.
Xiao Nian'an stood blankly at the door.
Shen Qingshu walked over and said softly to him, "Xiao Nian'an, it's getting late, we should go upstairs to take a shower."
Xiao Nian'an nodded, glanced at Fu Siyan, and finally turned around to follow Shen Qingshu.
Fu Siyan stared at Xiao Nian'an's small back, his hands clenched at his sides.

Tonight, Xiao Nian'an will sleep with Shen Qingshu and Xiao Anning again.
Just like last time, Shen Qingshu lay in the middle, holding a child on each side.
This time, Shen Qingshu read storybooks to them.
The two little ones listened very attentively.
After finishing the story, Shen Qingshu turned off the light.
"Okay, close your eyes and go to sleep."
"Mom, I'll sing a lullaby tonight!" Little Anning had already put all the bad things that had just happened behind her back.
That's just how kids are; they forget things easily.
At this moment, she was instead thinking about how she, as the older sister, should sing a lullaby to her younger brother.
Shen Qingshu smiled and said, "Okay, then let our little Anning sing a lullaby for your little brother tonight."
Xiao Nian'an clapped her hands happily.
Shen Qingshu tightened her arms around Xiao Nian'an slightly.
Xiao Nian'an is much more proactive in interacting with people now, especially after this meeting. Her progress is very obvious, which is a good thing.
In the dimly lit room, Xiao Anning's childish voice echoed.
After only a few lines of a lullaby were sung, Xiao Anning fell asleep on her own.
This is basic procedure, and Shen Qingshu is already used to it.
But Xiao Nian'an hadn't fallen asleep yet.
With no other option, Shen Qingshu had to continue singing lullabies to Xiao Nian'an.
Xiao Nian'an closed her eyes and slowly drifted into a dream amidst Shen Qingshu's gentle singing.
In his dream, he seemed to see his mother.
His mother held him and gently hummed a lullaby.
He was very happy and called out to his mother with a smile.
"Mother……"
A childish murmur suddenly rang out in the quiet room.
Shen Qingshu was taken aback, then realized that it was Xiao Nian'an calling for her mother.
She looked down and, by the moonlight streaming in from the window, could barely make out Xiao Nian'an's sleeping face.
Xiao Nian was sleeping soundly, probably having a wonderful dream; the corners of his mouth were turned up in a smile.
Shen Qingshu looked at it, her heart softening beyond belief.
This adorable and well-behaved child lost his mother at birth...
I couldn't help but think of my son again.
Thinking of how fragile and frail he was, leaving without ever experiencing his mother's embrace.
Shen Qingshu's breathing tightened. She lowered her head and kissed Xiao Nian'an's forehead, whispering, "Sleep well, child. Sleep peacefully."

Zhou Yuchu studied the erhu with Bai Jianwen for three days and finally managed to play a few tunes.
Bai Jianwen said that she has too little talent, and it is completely impossible for her to learn a song in a week.
Seeing this, Yang Heng did not insist any further, but only taught Zhou Yu the basic hand gestures and some basic knowledge about the erhu.
Bai Jianwen spent another day explaining to Zhou Yuchu the origins of the erhu and nanpa, as well as some basic common knowledge.
For the remaining two days, Yang Heng asked Zhou Yuchu to stay home and work on the script.
Zhou Yuchu verbally agreed, but as soon as she returned to Yaoyue Mansion, the first thing she did was go upstairs to take a bath.
After taking a bath, she arrived at the basement audio-visual room, looking refreshed and dressed in a silk slip dress.
I found a movie, opened a bottle of red wine, and lay on the smart massage bed worth hundreds of thousands of yuan, watching the movie and sipping the wine at the same time.
It's so comfortable and pleasant.
Zhou Yuchu didn't care at all about polishing the script.
Since the company's big boss is willing to promote her, why should she work so hard?
They attend classes and study sessions, but it's all just for show.
Zhou Yuchu held the wine glass with her slender fingers, and gently swirled the wine in it with a flick of her wrist.
Xiao Zhang pushed open the door and walked in.
"Sister Xiao Chu, Aunt Lin is here again."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Yu paused for a moment, then said calmly, "Tell them I'm not here."
“I told her, but she didn’t believe me at all.” Xiao Zhang looked helpless. “Moreover, she told me that if I didn’t see her today, she would sell your secret from when you were 17 to a marketing account.”
Zhou Yu was stunned for a moment, then suddenly sat up.
She frowned at Xiao Zhang, "Bring her in right now!"
The woman who had been leisurely and languid just moments before now looked tense, her hand trembling as she held the wine glass.
Although Xiao Zhang didn't know what had happened, she was certain of one thing from Zhou Yuchu's reaction—Zhou Yuchu really had something on Lin Lanyi!
The secret of being 17?
Xiao Zhang turned and walked towards the door.
As they left the video room, Xiao Zhang muttered to himself, "What could be the secret of Sister Xiao Chu at 17?"
