In fact, she had thought about this possibility, but every time she had this idea, people around her always told her, how could it be possible? You married into a real wealthy family! How could your mother-in-law give you a fake gift to deceive you? Is it necessary? You must be imagining things! Whether it was her husband, her relatives, or her friends, they all told her this, so she gave up this idea again and again and attributed the problem to herself.

It was not until this moment that she realized that her problem was not thinking too much, but failing to break out of that invisible circle.

That invisible circle trapped her, making her afraid to trust her own intuition, afraid to question the authority of the "wealthy family", and making her more and more timid.

Thinking of this, the woman raised her hand and wiped the tears from her face, then hugged her son tightly, and then stood up and bowed solemnly to Shen You.

When she bowed, the woman's eyes welled up with warmth. When she raised her head, she had returned to normal and said with gratitude: "Thank you, thank you so much!"

Shen You was startled by her sudden bow. Her black and white almond eyes widened in surprise. Listening to her solemn thank you, she thought to herself that she didn't seem to have done anything to deserve such a thank you. She waved her hand quickly, "You're welcome, you're welcome. I didn't do anything. You don't have to be like this."

Shen You didn't understand, but everyone present knew that the woman was not being polite to her.

They have been working in this industry for many years, and this woman is not the first time they have seen such unreasonable parents. But to be honest, this is the first time they have seen her attitude change 180 degrees in just half an hour.

They felt both curious and sad for this seemingly strong woman.

The woman took the lead in making a formal apology to them, and also asked her son to apologize to the teachers and Xie Junze one by one.

Xie Junze grabbed his brother's clothes and waved goodbye to his head teacher. Even after he walked out of the school gate, he still felt like he was dreaming.

After asking him for the third time what he wanted to eat for dinner but getting no response, Xie Chenxiao looked down at the little guy who was much shorter than him, "Xie Junze, are you scared silly?"

Xie Junze came to his senses belatedly, raised his head, and blinked in confusion, "What?"

Shen You thought the little guy's confused look was very cute. She smiled and bent down to pinch his cheek. It was as soft as she imagined. "He asked if you wanted to eat candied haws."

Xie Chenxiao:?

He raised an eyebrow, "When did I..."

Before he finished speaking, he met the girl's innocent eyes and heard her say, "Your brother said he wanted to eat candied haws. It just so happens that I want to eat some too. A generous brother wouldn't have the heart to refuse his brother's small request, right?"

Xie Junze noticed the stall selling candied haws not far away. Shen You aroused his appetite and his mouth watered. He also looked at Xie Chenxiao eagerly, "Brother, I want to eat it, I want to eat it!"

Shen You: "I want to eat, I want to eat, I want to eat."

Two pairs of hungry eyes stared at him. Xie Chenxiao looked away and forced himself to control his facial muscles so as not to reveal his true feelings with a smile. "Okay, buy buy buy."

The hands hanging by his side were rubbing with the fingertips, curling up slightly.

So cute.

Whether it was the playful topic that she had brought up specifically to appease Xie Junze's frightened emotions, or the fact that she could have done "buying candied haws" herself but chose to give the initiative to him, or even her various behaviors in the office just now, they all made his heart beat fast, and he almost couldn't control the urge to hug her tightly.

She knew a lot of things, probably including his.

From the time he agreed to Ms. Cheng to pick up Xie Junze until he entered the school, Xie Chenxiao was mentally preparing himself all the way.

The incident with the bracelet was a small episode that temporarily saved him from having to face this problem directly. But after leaving the school, Xie Chenxiao had to reconsider it.

Shen You took the initiative to express his "request" to eat candied haws, which seemed to be a sudden idea, but actually solved the problem for him.

Children are always easy to please, and Xie Junze has always been very attached to his brother. A string of candied haws is enough to bring the two brothers closer.

but……

Now it seems that this kid is closer to Shen You.

The two of them were holding a different string of candied haws in their hands. The one in Xie Junze's hand was hawthorn, and the one in Shen You's hand was strawberry.

Xie Junze held Shen You's hand without hesitation. He only ate one of his own strawberry candied haws and stared at her strawberry candied haws. "Sister Shen You, can I have one of your candied haws? I'll exchange mine with yours!"

Of course Shen You would not refuse such a harmless and cute request from a child, and nodded: "Okay, okay!"

Xie Chenxiao: “…” What’s good about it?

This scene caught him off guard and reminded him of a moment not long ago when, in the office, Tang Shengbo walked up to Shen You before leaving, looked at her eagerly, and said, "Pretty sister, I won't lie anymore. Please don't hate me, okay?"

Shen You patiently squatted down to the same level as the child and responded to him gently: "Sister likes honest children the most!"

In the end, the two were reluctant to part... No, it was Tang Shengbo who reluctantly pinky-pinched a promise with Shen You, and even saved Shen You's contact information on his Little Tiancai phone watch, saying that he wanted to talk to her, and that when he became a gaming god in the future, he would take her to play games together.

Shen You didn't say anything to criticize or question him. Instead, he nodded with a smile, "Okay, okay. I'll wait for the day when you become a gaming god."

Tang Shengbo looked like he had found a soulmate, and was even more reluctant to leave.

It's so popular wherever it goes, even among children.

Seeing Xie Junze about to take a bite of the strawberry candied haws that Shen You handed to him, Xie Chenxiao quickly covered his mouth, "Why didn't you say you wanted to eat strawberries? I'll buy you another bunch."

Xie Junze, whose mouth was covered: ??? Fortunately, they haven’t gotten on the bus yet, so it’s not far to go back and buy some now.

The uncle selling candied haws looked at the three people who came back with a puzzled look.

Xie Chenxiao took a string of strawberry candied haws and stuffed it into Xie Junze's hand. After thinking about it, he simply bought two strings of candied haws of all flavors.

Xie Junze was so happy that he couldn't help but put forward his own idea: "Brother, buy so much, we can't finish it!"

Xie Chenxiao glanced at him calmly, and said as he paid the bill, "Don't mind your own business."
