All eyes turned to the child in the crowd. His clear eyes were firm and proud, making him stand out among the other children.
Xiao Zhe walked to Ye Shi's side, took her hand and said, "Mom, these adults aren't fun. Come and play with us kids."
Then Ye Shi was pulled into the group of children.
Both the teacher and the parents seemed a little embarrassed.
Ms. Liu, in particular, could only pick up the microphone to defuse the awkward situation, saying, "Let's continue. Next, we'd like to invite other parents to come up and speak."
Ye Shi patted her son's head and said softly, "Thank you for protecting Mom."
Xiao Zhe raised his head slightly, "Of course, with Daddy away, the task of protecting Mommy falls on me."
The first task of the outing was for parents and children to set up tents.
Although Fu Zelian didn't come, he sent a bodyguard to accompany them so he could help them with some tasks.
Ye Shi was busy with the tasks, while Xiao Zhe played with his friends on the side.
"The little cakes are here! Parents, please come and get them!" A teacher announced through a megaphone.
Ye Shi wiped her hands, got up, and went to get it.
The parent in front of her suddenly turned around, spilling cake on her clothes.
"Oh, I'm so sorry, I'm so clumsy," the other person quickly apologized.
"fine."
Ye Shi saw a restroom ahead and went over to clean up.
Fortunately, it's not too serious; wiping it with a tissue should be fine.
She was about to come out after finishing when she suddenly heard two women talking next door.
The gossip crawled into her ears like tiny insects.
"That woman named Ye Shi is quite pure and pretty. I heard that she lost both her parents when she was young and came from a poor mountain village. Her family situation was extremely miserable."
"Oh, is that so? Judging from her demeanor and manner, I thought she was some rich young lady."
"How could that be? Otherwise, why would her son have spoken up for her just now? He must be afraid that his mother would embarrass him."
"Based on my experience in judging people, this kind of woman is a vixen. She appears innocent and pure on the surface, but who knows how wicked she is inside. She used tricks to get into President Fu's bed and have a child so that she can live such a good life now. Aren't there many women like this in our circle? Don't you think about it?"
"If it weren't for the child, President Fu would have kicked her out long ago."
"Yeah, yeah."
Ye Shi came out, and the women scattered when they saw her.
She ignored those words and returned to her son's side, where she saw Xiao Zhe sitting there playing with building blocks by himself.
"Honey, why are you sitting here all by yourself? Aren't you going to play with them?"
Xiao Zhe raised his head, his big eyes filled with displeasure. "Their mothers just told them not to play with me, saying that I was born of a vixen and that playing with me would bring bad luck."
Upon hearing this, Ye Shi looked up at the several wealthy women not far away.
They had been staring in this direction, then casually looked away.
Ye Shi bent down and smiled, "It's okay, baby. Mommy will play with you. We don't need to take those people's words to heart. Just be yourself."
"Mmm." Xiao Zhe nodded.
"Achoo—"
At that moment, Fu Zelian, who was far away in Yucheng, sneezed.
The assistant handed him a handkerchief and said with concern, "Mr. Fu, you should rest for a while. You've been in meetings all night."
"It's nothing." He opened his phone on the table and glanced at the family photo of the three of them, his brows furrowing slightly.
Are you worried about Madam and Young Master?
“I’m not with them, so I don’t know if they’ve been bullied.”
