Chapter 1467 Because Zhou Chenshu is my child, and you are too
Liu Shuyi's feelings towards Bian Zhi are very complicated and contradictory.
I want to snuggle but I restrain myself.
Feeling safe yet afraid of destroying it.
He could only follow not too far away, but he was very satisfied. The sense of security he experienced from Bian Zhi was something that no one else could give Liu Shuyi.
So no matter how far away she is, she will come back.
It's not just because she grew up here, but also because Bian Zhi is here, and her strong sense of security is supported here.
Bian Zhi raised his eyes and looked at Liu Shuyi opposite him.
She stood straight, and even without getting close to her, one could sense the tension and vague hesitation in her body.
People with high IQs don't need to say a lot of words. They can understand what happened with just a glance. Liu Shuyi pursed his lips, stood there, lowered his head under the light, and his hands were tightly resting on the outside of his legs, like a death row prisoner waiting for sentencing.
However--
"You should go to bed," Bian Zhi said softly with a faint smile, "It's so late, you must be tired after a few days of hard work. Xiao Liu is a troublemaker."
Liu Shuyi raised her head in surprise and met Bian Zhi's gentle gaze. Her guilt reached its peak at this moment.
Liu Shuyi moved his lips.
But then he heard Bian Zhi say with a smile, "You haven't slept for a few days, you have dark circles under your eyes, go back and have a good sleep, and we can talk about other things later."
Liu Shuyi actually didn't want to leave, as if there was a knife hanging over his head, but Bian Zhi would also be tired after the long journey, so Liu Shuyi didn't dare to make a fuss, nodded, and finally left.
After the others had gone far away, Zhou Suihuai asked Bian Zhi, "Didn't you want to say something to Shuyi just now?"
Bian Zhi smiled, stood up and stretched, "I'm taking a look."
Need to take another look.
Don't get the wrong idea and make things difficult for the child.
Bian Zhi knew that as long as she opened her mouth, Liu Shuyi would not refuse no matter what it was.
She has to see it.
She dared not be careless about the happiness of her two children.
Bian Zhi has always been tolerant towards the children at home and has never had high expectations for them.
When she was a child, when the other children played, she would play along, or even make more noise. So among the elders in the family, the child was least afraid of Bian Zhi, and she was also the one she was closest to.
Nowadays, when people are punished, it is naturally particularly shocking and unexpected.
The child being punished was Bian Zhi's favorite, and he was sick. Everyone couldn't bear it and went up to him to plead for mercy, but Bian Zhi just said calmly, "The most favored child may look well-behaved on weekdays, but when he does something stupid, it's the most despicable. Just punish him, it won't be a big deal."
He is a doctor, and he can't say anything serious, and no one can question it in the slightest.
Even Zhou Enyou couldn't do it.
The penalty is three days.
There was food and drink, but Zhou Chenshu had a poor appetite and ate little every day. He was usually the most pampered person, but now he was very tough.
He knelt for three days without saying a word.
Zhou Chenshu was gritting his teeth, his face pale and dazed, and he looked weak when he smiled.
During lunch.
Zhou Enyou asked Bian Zhi at the dinner table, "When can we get Xiaoliu up? I went to see him today, and he's lost weight again. He had a fever of 39 degrees last night, and when I went this morning, the fever hadn't even gone away."
Even Duxie's younger brothers couldn't stand it anymore. They couldn't understand how Bian Zhi, who was usually the gentlest boy, could be so cruel to his own child.
"Yes, Boss, that's enough. Xiaoliu is also a victim. He was cyberbullied, and he didn't want to do it. Please don't punish him. The child's face is so pale, it makes me sad just looking at him."
Everyone was talking at once.
Bian Zhi picked up the dishes slowly with chopsticks in his hand, while his peripheral vision slightly raised and swept across a person with a heavy face. Bian Zhi turned his gaze and smiled, but still did not let go.
On the fourth day, someone exclaimed, "Master!"
Before Bian Zhi could see clearly, he saw Liu Shuyi drop the bowl in his hand and run out.
When Bian Zhi arrived, Liu Shuyi's face changed. When he looked up at Bian Zhi, his face was still filled with shock, and his panicked eyes were shaking violently.
If someone else punished Zhou Chenshu like this, even if it was Zhou Enyou, Liu Shuyi would not agree.
But this is Bianzhi.
It was her mother, the dean.
She is Zhou Chenshu’s biological mother.
He is the backbone of everyone.
If she wanted to punish someone, no one could say no, including Liu Shuyi.
Bian Zhi taught Zhou Chenshu that he had to be ruthless when making plans. Zhou Chenshu had really seen it. Even his own son had fainted from kneeling, but he still said, "Send a doctor to take a look. If he's saved, keep kneeling. Get up when your mind is clear."
Everyone gasped.
Xiaoliu couldn't even kneel properly, and lay by the door, dying.
Bian Zhi took a look and then went to the study. Liu Shuyi knocked on the door and went in, then knelt down directly.
Bian Zhi looked at the person kneeling upright in front of him, still surprised, and asked, "What's wrong? Why are you kneeling down in front of me?"
Liu Shuyi: "Don't punish Xiaoliu. It's because I didn't take good care of him that he got into trouble. You can blame me."
Bian Zhi smiled faintly upon hearing this, "He wasn't efficient enough, so he got bullied by outsiders. I have to teach him a lesson. How can it be your fault, silly boy? Get up."
Liu Shuyi was still kneeling. "It's my fault. I should have stopped him. He was young and should have been taken care of. I didn't take good care of him, and he made a mistake. It's all my fault. You have to punish me. He's not in good health and can't stand it."
Bian Zhi was quiet for a long time.
She smiled softly, and some ideas gradually became clear in her mind.
The Scorpion Boss used his own son as a test. I have to say: it’s absolutely amazing.
"You," Bian Zhi sighed slightly, then stood up and walked over to help Liu Shuyi up from the ground. She spoke softly and helplessly, "You're too worried. You've been like this since you were a child."
Bian Zhi took Liu Shuyi to the balcony and sat down on the bench.
"When we were little, I remember you always called me Dean Mom. Why didn't you call me that later?" Bian Zhi leaned back in the chair, smiled faintly, and asked slowly as if chatting.
"When I was little...I didn't know much."
"Really?" Bian Zhi said with a hint of regret, "I have many children, but I only have one daughter, Zhou Enyou. Zhou Enyou is used to being a bandit leader, and he talks about the thoughtfulness of a little cotton-padded jacket. I actually feel more of that in you. A few days ago, Sui Huai was saying that Shuyi is smart and insightful, but he's too worried. He's afraid you'll make trouble for yourself in the future."
Liu Shuyi lowered his head, looked at the lines on his palm, pursed his lips, and felt soft in his heart.
"I don't know what you're thinking right now, but I've always treated you like my own child. When you were very young, I left you at the Zhou family for a while. That period of time is actually very important for a child's spiritual development, but I really didn't have time to care for you at the time. I have to apologize to you here."
"It's the Dean's mom who didn't do it well."
"No," Liu Shuyi immediately retorted, "You... are very good."
It is unknown where the children in the orphanage will end up, and there are endless cases of destitute and needy children, such as Li Jinling, and many other children who were kept in orphanages and eventually criticized.
But she had never been treated like this before. Everything Zhou Enyou and his family had, the Zhou family gave her equally. She used to think it was because she had a good relationship with Zhou Enyou. Later, when she joined Scorpion and worked in finance for a while and managed Bian Zhi's personal account, she finally understood.
During the years when Bian Zhi was away, she did not neglect herself. She sent a huge sum of money to the Zhou family every month for her daily expenses.
He would call on time every month, and he never missed a beat even during the five most difficult years for Scorpion.
Later, the Zhou family returned the money to Bian Zhi, who accepted it and donated it to the orphanage in the name of "Liu Shuyi". The name of the donor remained "Liu Shuyi".
Bian Zhi never told Liu Shuyi about these things and did them silently.
This made Liu Shuyi think back to her childhood, and her heart was filled with emotion. She was also a child that adults cared about.
"Okay, okay, let's forget about it," Bian Zhi took Liu Shuyi's hand, held it in his, and patted the back of her hand gently, "Over the years, you have been at home, always taking care of the children at home, but you are also a child. Xiaoliu is the most troublesome, with a stupid head, always looking for trouble,
But there's nothing we can do about it. He was born in our family, and there's nothing we can do about it. He always gets into the worst of things, and you've been dealing with him since you were little. I'm sorry for making things difficult for you, and I've worked so hard for you over the years."
"Actually, even if you didn't come to me today, I would have to come to you. I want to tell you that Xiaoliu has grown up. He has grown from a little brat into a man. He can endure and face many things. I see clearly and understand his thoughts."
Liu Shuyi became flustered when he heard this.
Bian Zhi smiled and gently patted the back of her hand, "Listen to me finish what I have to say."
"As for you, I don't know. It's not like you have to promise me anything. I just want to tell you today that Zhou Chenshu is my child, and so are you.
In the future, if you choose to be with Xiaoliu, I will definitely support you.
I don't care about the past background or anything, I only know that you are my daughter, and have always been the best one. You are wronged to be paired with that stupid Xiaoliu. If you think Xiaoliu is not good enough or not suitable, it doesn't matter. Just follow your heart and everything will be fine. As I said just now, he is an adult and can bear the truth. You don't have to give in to him all the time.
I also have to tell you something. If you like me now and want to be together, that's fine. But if you find this idiot annoying and don't want to be together anymore, don't let me, the Zhou family, or anything else hold you back. There's nothing you can't let go of. Feelings are something that no one can fully explain. If you fall in love with someone else in the future, you can tell me."
"Because Zhou Chenshu is my child, and so are you."
"I hope he's well, and I equally hope you're well."
"Shuyi, do you understand what the dean's mother wants to say to you today?"
――
"No matter what happens to you in the future, this is your home."
