Chapter 20: What is Shi Nian's background?



"Grandpa, I don't need anyone to take care of me. I'm all grown up now, I can take care of myself!" Shi Nian protested.

She had already decided that she would be a stranger to Ye Chen for the rest of her life. How could she let him take care of her in the future?

The old man smiled and coaxed, "Niannian, be good. Grandpa knows you're very capable and can take care of yourself, but wouldn't it be nice to have a handsome and capable servant... no, a little elder to take care of you?"

Ye Chen: "..." Did the old man finally say what was on his mind?

Shi Nian: "..." Does Grandpa think of her as a mentally challenged child?

Moreover, he said Ye Chen was capable...

All she knew was that he was quite capable in bed...

If he hadn't poisoned her in her past life, she might have been able to accept him.

But now, the thought of him trying to kill her in her past life makes her feel increasingly repulsed and hateful.

Her eyes darkened. "I don't want him to take care of me. I don't like him, and I don't want to live with him!"

"Niannian, don't be willful. Grandpa left you so much inheritance. If no one protects you, you'll be eaten alive, with not even bones left," the old man sighed.

Shi Nian said, "Then Grandpa should give the inheritance to someone else. I don't want it."

She would rather have nothing than have anything to do with Ye Chen again.

The old man's face darkened. "Niannian, don't say things like that again. Those things are what you deserve. If you don't want them, I will die with regrets!"

His tone was stern, no longer the kind one he once was.

Not only was Shi Nian stunned, but even Ye Chen glanced at the old man in surprise.

From the moment Shi Nian was brought back to the Bo family, the old man listened to her every word, coaxed her every day, and tried every means to make her happy.

He had always found the old man's attitude towards Shi Nian very strange.

Sometimes he felt that it wasn't the care of an elder for a younger generation, but rather the flattery and ingratiation of a servant for his master...

The old man just let slip that while he said he was to take care of Shi Nian, the terms and conditions were practically the same as being a servant.

What exactly is the origin of Shi Nian?

What makes the old man treat her so specially?

"Then Grandpa, find someone else to take care of me. I want Yunhai to take care of me!" Shi Nian changed her mind and said.

If she had to choose someone to take care of her grandfather to feel at ease, she would rather choose Bo Yunhai.

Bo Yunhai is rather dim-witted; she can keep him by her side and slowly manipulate him.

Ye Chen is too dangerous; she doesn't want to get too close to him.

"He's no good. He's too stupid, and he's not sincere with you. I'll announce the annulment of your engagement. Don't pay any more attention to him. He's not good enough for you." The old man looked disgusted when he thought of Bo Yunhai.

Shi Nian said seriously, "It's okay, as long as I'm smart, we can complement each other!"

The old man said affectionately, "Niannian, be good. I know you're the smartest. Smart people should be with other smart people. There's no need to make yourself suffer by being paired with a fool."

Shi Nian: "..." Grandpa still treated her like a child with insufficient intelligence.

She was deeply frustrated.

Her previous image as an autistic person was so deeply ingrained that her grandfather always thought she was sick.

Although she can speak now, her grandfather still believes that she suffered a mental breakdown because her engagement fell through.

The old man made the final decision, leaving her no room for further refusal: "Alright, it's settled then. I can listen to you on everything else, but on this matter, you must follow my arrangements."
