Sending Aunt Wang away was like sending away the last connection in the slum.
Since then, Su Lixuan rarely heard gossip in the slum.
She only knew that, just as Aunt Wang said, Zhang Guifang was bedridden not long after Lu Dahai left.
The two precious grandchildren whom she once protected as if they were the apple of her eye were also taken away by their maternal family.
From then on, the two naughty kids who had been lucky and ungrateful in their previous lives, and had been arrogant all their lives, began to live a cautious life living under someone else's roof.
Sweet, bitter, spicy, sour, and spicy...
···
Four years later.
At the gate of Beijing University.
Two similar-looking pink and tender little balls sat in their father's arms, one on the left and one on the right.
He stretched his neck and kept looking into the school.
The little girl in a pink skirt pointed at the school: "Dad...Mom..."
Knowing what his daughter meant, Lin Zhan coaxed her, "Mom will be out soon. After picking her up from school, Dad will take you out for something delicious."
“No, I won’t learn…”
Listening to his daughter's vague childish talk, Lin Zhan said seriously: "I have to learn."
"Have you forgotten what Dad told you?"
"Mom missed the college entrance exam because of your birth. I prepared for that year's exam for a long time."
Lin Zhan's daughter, Lin Nuannuan, pouted: "I know...we are bad..."
Lin Zhan was amused by her and softened his heart: "It's not that Nuannuan is mean, Dad means that Mom has sacrificed a lot for you."
"You may not understand what I mean, but just remember, you can't pester your mother and make her revolve around you without doing anything."
"That's not right."
"Your mother is herself first, and a mother second."
"She has her own things to do and her own ideals... Never mind, you won't understand what I'm saying."
Lin Nuannuan stretched out her chubby little hand and hit him: "I understand!"
"Mom isn't allowed to accompany Nuannuan and her brother, so Nuannuan and her brother have to accompany Mom..."
Lin Zhan weighed the two little chubby kids on his arms and said in surprise, "They're quite smart. Yes, you can't force your mother to revolve around you, but you can revolve around your mother."
…
Su Lixuan saw from a distance that a group of two children, one big and two small, were gathered together outside the school gate, talking about something.
She quickly ran a few steps to the three of them and asked jokingly, "What are you whispering about behind my back?"
Lin Zhan glanced at his daughter, who was covering her mouth tightly, and jokingly changed the subject: "No, why are you out so late today?"
Su Lixuan's eyes curved. "My food factory is going to open in a couple of days, so I specially asked my teacher for a week's leave today."
She raised her chin and snorted, "From now on, I'll be Director Su."
Lin Zhan: "Disrespectful, disrespectful."
Su Lixuan: "You're welcome."
Blinking at Lin Zhan, she smiled slyly: "Do you still remember what you promised me when you cut the ribbon at your factory?"
The latter pretended not to know: "What?"
...The two of them walked away holding the child. From a distance, they could still hear Su Lixuan teasing Lin Zhan -
"Don't play dumb. You promised me that you would become my director's wife once my factory was established..."
"If you dare to deny it, I'll talk to my sister-in-law about how to deal with you... Forget it, my sister-in-law is pregnant now, so just be my heir..."
"Well, no, just be the factory director's wife so I don't have to bother my sister-in-law."
In the setting sun, the shadows lengthened, and the shadow belonging to Lin Zhan clearly made a gesture of surrender.
Passersby couldn't help but smile knowingly when they saw the four of them playing and cuddling with each other...
The cannon fodder couple in the control group, who originally had a miserable end, have now completely broken free from the shackles of fate. All the disasters are gone, and they have a smooth road ahead.
Director Su, the future is promising.
