Chapter 225 The Past
"I just beat him up a few times and changed his school. This brat said he refused to go. It pissed me off."
Change schools? Daniel attends the top aristocratic school in Italy, where Ye Lin also studied before.
"Where did you transfer him to? The other aristocratic schools near our home are pretty average."
While talking to Rebecca, Ye Lin bent down to pick up the magazine that had just fallen on the ground. In the middle of the conversation, he heard Rebecca talking about school and almost dropped the magazine in his hand again.
The knuckles of the fingers pressing on the microphone were distinct and the tendons were bulging. It was obvious that the owner had heard something incredible.
"Aunt, are you going to send Daniel to Union School? Will he be able to adapt there?"
Ye Lin and Daniel had previously attended an aristocratic school where every day there was either parties or afternoon tea. Students all had private tutors to learn professional courses. No one expected to learn anything from school; they went to school purely for socializing.
The United School is a serious concentration camp for academic elites. It is mainly populated by ordinary people. The study pressure is comparable to that of a donkey in a production team. The students there are all striving to get into the top universities in the world.
Daniel's grades are so poor that they are even worse than Ye Lin's. There is no way he can even go there. No one else can get the last place in the school.
The worst of the worst students, a thorn in the eyes of the teacher.
This was exactly the effect Rebecca wanted. She waved away the servant who came over to add tea and sat down on the soft couch. "Daniel has a lot of bad habits. It's just right to teach him a lesson there for two days. This will prevent him from being arrogant and acting like a spoiled brat all day long."
I silently lit a candle for Daniel in my heart. Judging from Aunt Rebecca's tone, Daniel couldn't escape this transformation.
No longer talking about Daniel, Ye Lin started to ask about Vivian.
"Aunt, do you know Vivian?"
The Western beauty, who was leisurely leaning on the couch, frowned slightly, somewhat surprised by her nephew's question. She asked uncertainly, "Are you asking about my sister's maid?"
"Yes, what does Auntie think of her?"
Rebecca pondered for a moment before continuing to speak, because there really wasn't much to say about Vivian. She was a strict and conservative person. She hadn't made any great achievements in recent years, but she hadn't made any mistakes either. Rebecca didn't know what to say for a moment.
"Vivian has been with my sister for more than ten years and has never made any mistakes."
"Her parents died about ten years ago. You were still young then, so you probably don't remember anything. Your sister even took you to the funeral."
"Vivian isn't married yet, and there's no one at home right now. You should take better care of her. When you were little, Vivian always changed your diapers. Your mom thought you were dirty, so she would stay away every time you pooped."
Rebecca dragged out the ugly things in her childhood and teased her. Seeing that she wanted to continue, Ye Lin quickly interrupted her memories of raising a child.
Moreover, Rebecca's words just now surprised Ye Lin.
"Wait, Auntie, Vivian only followed my mom halfway through? Why?"
Rebecca said Vivian had been with Irene for more than ten years, which meant that she had been with her since Irene was about thirty years old.
Young masters and young ladies of large families have personal servants since childhood. These servants know almost everything about their masters and will not be replaced unless something unexpected happens.
For example, Ah Hui has been following Ye Lin in Italy since he was sixteen years old. As long as Ah Hui doesn't go crazy halfway and suddenly realizes that he wants to pursue his dream, he will probably stay with Ye Lin for the rest of his life.
Vivian followed Irene halfway, but Ye Lin didn't know.
His parents were both forty when they got married. Irene gave birth to Ye Lin in her forties. Ever since Ye Lin could remember, the maid around his mother was Vivian. He thought they were all Vivian.
"Baby, why are you curious about these things today?"
"Well, I was my sister's maid before, but after falling in love, I wanted to focus on men, so I quit."
These were all old things. Rebecca didn't know why her nephew suddenly became interested, but when Ye Lin asked, she began to recall what happened twenty years ago.
The maid who followed Irene since she was a child was called Susan, Vivian's sister. Susan followed Irene for more than ten years. Both the master and the servant were single. Their small group only disbanded when Irene met her true love and got married.
Susan may have been affected, and after a while she also fell in love. Then, she was so obsessed with love that she insisted on quitting her job to accompany her lover to study. Before leaving, she recommended her sister Vivian to Irene. Seeing that she was determined to leave, Irene gave Susan some money and let her pursue love.
After all, she was not her own maid, so Rebecca did not know much. A few years later, she heard that Susan had given birth to a child and then went to the United States. A few years later, not long after Irene's death, Susan also died of illness. The former master and servant left the world one after another.
Whenever Rebecca thought of this, she felt that the two of them were really destined to be together.
You have to walk quickly to see God.
Ye Lin almost knew everything that happened afterwards.
"Ahem."
Putting down the teacup, Rebecca cleared her throat. Today she first got angry with Daniel, and then told Ye Lin a story, so her throat was very dry.
Ye Lin always felt like he had missed something, but before he could figure it out, he was interrupted by Rebecca's cough, "Aunt, are you feeling unwell?"
"It's okay. I gave that father and son a good beating today. They talked too much."
Thinking of Louis, the ticking time bomb, Ye Lin asked indirectly, "How is my uncle doing recently? Is he still in charge of the company?"
Rebecca didn't think much about it. She poured herself a cup of black tea and said casually, "What can he do? He only knows how to spoil Daniel every day. Most of Daniel's bad habits were taught by him."
"I've been in charge of the company for a while. It's all because of Daniel. Your uncle can't control him at all, so I have to look after him at home."
"I have to send him to school quickly, otherwise, according to Huaguo's saying, my life will be shortened..."
Listening to Rebecca's mumbling, Ye Lin rubbed the receiver unconsciously with his hands. He didn't know how to tell Rebecca about Louis.
As of now, Louis only has ill will towards him, Rebecca, and especially doting on Daniel.
It makes sense. Louis has no blood relationship with him, so of course people would be partial to their own son. It's human nature.
He rolled his throat twice and tried to speak cautiously with a hoarse voice, "Aunt, if Louis... forget it."
"What's wrong with you, Louis? You're only speaking half your words, kid."
"Nothing, I just wanted to ask if you're interested in having a little puppy as your husband."
"Pfft, oh you made me laugh to death."
Rebecca laughed so hard on the couch that she rolled back and forth, looking very glamorous. "Don't tease your aunt. Finding a little puppy who is only a few years older than you will mess up the family hierarchy."
After a few more words, Rebecca was in a good mood, and then the two hung up the phone.
Ye Lin couldn't bring himself to mention Louis just now. Rebecca's family seemed very happy now, and he didn't have the heart to break this situation.
With a wry smile, he turned and walked into the bathroom.
Early in the morning,
After Ye Lin went downstairs, he found that the atmosphere at home was not right. When he came out of the elevator, there was no one in the restaurant in front of him, only Aunt Liu was serving dishes.
"Aunt Liu, why is there no one in the restaurant?"
"Master is up now. Would you like to eat a few bites first? They have all gone to check the surveillance."
Aunt Liu has been hanging out with Zhao Zhaodi for a long time recently, so she has no pressure in talking about inversion.
Unfolding his napkin and placing it on his lap, Ye Lin took the slice of bread handed to him by Aunt Liu and asked while spreading jam on it, "What's so interesting about the surveillance?"
Aunt Liu cut the remaining bread quickly, forgetting to put down the knife, and came over with the knife to gossip with Ye Lin.
"Young Master, you don't know that Boss Ming came early this morning, but you didn't wake up, so Lao Fang didn't let anyone in. Boss Ming is also very stubborn, and he's been standing at the door for two hours."
"Madam and the others are all gathered around the surveillance camera right now."
"Do you think we should let him in?"
After saying that, Aunt Liu waited expectantly for Ye Lin to speak. If she hadn't had to leave someone behind to take care of the young master, she would have gone to join in the fun long ago.
