Chapter 186 Song Chi Takes Over the Rebellious Teenager
Song Chi clearly heard Li Bowen's cold snort, and could tell that he looked very unwilling.
Song Chi raised an eyebrow, thinking to himself; I wonder what he's unwilling about!
Song Yulan got up to greet her.
"Chichi, long time no see! You're pregnant, how come you've gotten so thin?"
Looking at her slender figure, Song Yulan felt a pang of heartache.
"Auntie, I'm alright..."
Song Chi reached out to take her hand and was shocked to find that her hand looked much older than before, with many calluses on her palm.
Song Chi immediately looked distressed.
The two observed each other, their eyes filled with concern and care for one another.
Upon seeing this, Mu Yin's lips curled into a slight smile.
"Chichi, Auntie, let's sit down and talk."
"Uh, yes, please sit down..."
The group found a place to sit down and talk.
No one spoke first after they sat down.
The atmosphere suddenly became very heavy.
Song Yulan subtly nudged Li Bowen and gave him a meaningful look, as if she wanted him to say something. However, the latter looked unwilling, snorted at Song Chi, and turned his face away.
However, Li Bowen caught a glimpse of Mu Yin out of the corner of his eye.
Mu Yin had a cold face and an aura of dominance.
Li Bowen felt a chill run down his spine; with Mu Yin present, he immediately cowered.
Song Chi asked suspiciously, "Auntie, what happened? Has Li Bowen caused trouble again?"
Before Song Yulan could speak, Li Bowen reacted fiercely: "I didn't steal anything! I'm not a thief! Humph, you ugly freak, all you know how to do is slander people... Besides, I don't want to be with her... She's just an internet celebrity, what's so great about her..."
His voice was loud, which drew the attention of those around him.
Song Yulan looked embarrassed: "Bowen, keep your voice down..."
Li Bowen snorted coldly and angrily turned his head away.
Song Chi frowned, feeling extremely disgusted. Li Bowen called her "Mom" repeatedly, calling her "ugly monster," which was really ill-mannered!
How heartbroken her aunt must be!
Song Chi gave Li Bowen a cold look.
The atmosphere became somber.
Song Yulan sighed deeply and said, "Chichi, it's like this..."
Song Yulan hasn't contacted Song Chi recently because she's also very busy with her career.
She opened a housekeeping company and worked with a group of women to take on household cleaning jobs. Life was tough, but with less domestic violence, they managed to get by.
Because of Li Bowen's bullying of his classmates, it became a dark history for him, and now no school is willing to accept him. As a result, he had to drop out of school at a young age.
Song Yulan was worried about leaving him alone at home, so she took him along to do housework.
During this time, Li Bowen was quite obedient, and Song Yulan thought he had really changed for the better.
However, just last time, when Song Yulan took him to a customer's house to clean, the customer's son's favorite basketball was taken away by Li Bowen.
Unfortunately, the young master's parents happened to see him and mistook Li Bowen for a thief.
Li Bowen said that it was a gift from a rich young master.
The young master happened to be traveling abroad and could not be contacted to confirm, so his parents thought he was making excuses.
Song Yulan had no choice but to apologize repeatedly and offer to return the basketball.
However, Li Bowen remained adamant, refusing to apologize and engaging in a heated argument with the customer. The customer, enraged, threatened to contact the media and expose her housekeeping company as a shady operation, etc.
Song Yulan tried to reason with Li Bowen, but he not only showed no remorse, but also kept crying foul, calling her ugly and saying she didn't believe him, and so on...
Song Yulan finished her story.
After listening, Song Chi felt sorry for her aunt's hardships and was also angry at Li Bowen's lack of understanding.
She held Song Yulan's hand, her face full of heartache.
"Auntie, thank you for everything during this time..."
"Chichi, as long as Bowen can study well, I'm not afraid of any hardship or fatigue, but this time... Waaah..."
As Song Yulan spoke, she began to cry.
Li Bowen heard the whole story from the side.
His face flushed with anger: "Ugly hag, stupid woman, I already told you, I didn't steal anything, it was a gift from that young master. Don't you know to check with him again? I didn't steal anything..."
The more he talked, the more agitated he became, and he even started slamming his fist on the table.
Song Chi was genuinely startled by his actions.
Mu Yin quickly protected her, patting her back with his hand.
He said softly, "Chichi, don't be afraid."
With him around, Song Chi always felt safe, and she breathed a sigh of relief.
Mu Yin looked at Li Bowen, his gaze suddenly turning cold.
His voice carried a hint of intimidation: "Li Bowen, let's talk this out! If you dare to scare her again, just you wait!"
Li Bowen: "..."
He was terrified of Mu Yin's authority and immediately fell silent.
The atmosphere was less tense.
Song Chi looked at Song Yulan and asked, "Aunt, so you came to me because you want us to help clarify things with the media?"
"No……"
Song Yulan shook her head: "Chichi, I'll handle the customer complaint with my colleagues. It's just that Bowen... it's inconvenient for him to continue working with me..."
At this point, she looked embarrassed.
"Chichi, do you think it's possible to let Bowen go to your place... Could you help me keep an eye on him...?"
Song Chi was puzzled. How was it any different from taking care of a rebellious teenager and handling a hot potato?
But the person in front of her was her most beloved aunt, who also loved her the most!
She couldn't ignore it, but she was still young herself, and she wasn't confident she could manage a teenager!
"Chichi, don't worry, I'm not handing him over to you directly. While I'm working, please keep an eye on him and make sure he doesn't go out and cause trouble... I'll come and pick him up when I'm done working..."
Song Yulan is in a very difficult situation right now.
This incident has already caused a stir in the industry. If she continues to work with Li Bowen, she may lose her job in the future.
Song Chi looked at Mu Yin, his eyes seeking his opinion.
Mu Yin smiled gently at her.
He said softly, "My dear Chichi, don't ask me anything. I respect your decision."
A warm feeling surged through Song Chi's heart, and his mouth tasted as sweet as if he had eaten honey.
No matter what she wanted to do, the older man would always stand by her side, encouraging her, supporting her, and accompanying her...
Song Chi was deeply moved by Mu Yin's actions several times a day.
After thinking for a while, she said, "Auntie, okay, I'll take care of him for you for now."
Song Yulan said gratefully, "Chichi, thank you so much!"
"Auntie, don't be so polite with me..."
As she spoke, she looked at Li Bowen and said, "Li Bowen, be more polite when you talk to me in the future. I won't spoil you like your mother does. If you dare to go out and cause trouble, I'll call Uncle and have your butt beaten to a pulp!"
"snort!"
Li Bowen snorted coldly and turned his head away, ignoring her.
Song Chi and Song Yulan chatted for a few more minutes. Song Yulan was in a hurry to do her next task, so she turned and left. Afterwards, Mu Yin pushed Song Chi's wheelchair out of the coffee shop.
Li Bowen followed behind them reluctantly.
Song Chi raised an eyebrow and asked, "Uncle, looking at Li Bowen, could it be that he's really been wronged?"
Mu Yin shrugged: "Maybe, but who would believe the words of a rebellious teenager!"
Song Chi nodded, looked at Li Bowen, and said seriously, "Li Bowen, if you are truly innocent, then find a way to prove your innocence yourself. Shouting and yelling won't clear your name!"
Li Bowen: "..."
His face was still very pale, but he fell into deep thought again.
Song Chi raised an eyebrow, suddenly feeling that this rebellious twelve-year-old boy might actually be able to change for the better!
She looked at Mu Yin, puzzled, and asked, "Uncle, where is he staying tonight...?"
