"Yinyin, be good. I'm here. I won't let you become an orphan."
Fu Rong suppressed the anger rising in her heart and decided to appease Shu Xueyin first.
Shu Xueyin nestled obediently in her arms, clutching her clothes affectionately, and whispered repeatedly, "Grandma, please don't argue with Mom and Dad anymore because of me. I want you all to be well."
"Okay, I'll do as you say."
Fu Rong said.
Although Yun Yun's words were harsh, they did serve as a reminder to her.
She is truly getting old. Right now, she can rely on her age to demand that Yun Yun treat Shu Xueyin like her own daughter, but when she gets old and can't move, or even... at that time, Yun Yun's pent-up dissatisfaction with her will definitely be unleashed on Shu Xueyin all at once.
"Grandma will think carefully about how to repair her relationship with your mother."
She said.
Shu Xueyin looked up at her, her teary eyes filled with surprise, "Grandma, really?"
Fu Rong nodded.
Shu Xueyin first smiled happily, but then, for some reason, her brows furrowed and her eyes seemed to hold an unyielding sorrow.
"Yinyin, what's wrong? Aren't you happy that I did what you wanted?"
Fu Rong asked, puzzled.
Shu Xueyin bit her lip, as if finding it difficult to speak, and said, "Grandma, now that you and Mom have repaired your relationship, will you think my sister is better and stop liking me?"
Before Fu Rong could answer, she pretended to be magnanimous and said, "It's okay if that's the case. After all, you are my own granddaughter, and I am just an outsider."
After saying that, she lowered her head in disappointment.
"Silly child, no one is more important to me than you."
Fu Rong stroked her head and said, "I will repair my relationship with Yun Yunhui, also for your sake."
As for the fact that this so-called repair was just a stopgap measure, there was no need to tell Shu Xueyin that.
Her beloved granddaughter is so kind; all she needs to do is be a good daughter of the Shu family, and she'll clear away all the obstacles in her path.
That little vixen Yu Mowan, she managed to set a trap to get rid of her back then, and she'll find a way to drive her away this time too.
"Yinyin, if you have a headache, lie down and rest. Don't overthink things."
Fu Rong helped Shu Xueyin lie down, "I'll have a good talk with Yun Yun tomorrow and make sure your position in the Shu family remains unchanged forever."
Shu Xueyin held her hand tightly with affection, her eyes glistening with tears, and said gratefully, "Grandma, you've been the best to me."
"You're my only precious granddaughter. If I don't treat you well, who else should I treat well?"
Fu Rong playfully pinched her nose and laughed.
Shu Xueyin smiled sweetly.
The two chatted for a long time until Shu Xueyin yawned a few times, her eyelids drooping with sleepiness.
"Go to sleep."
Goodnight, Grandma.
Shu Xueyin said goodnight and then fell into a deep sleep.
Fu Rong got up and left.
Shu Xueyin, who had been sleeping soundly, opened her eyes after Fu Rong left and closed the door. Her eyes were cold, and there was no trace of the cute and obedient girl she had been during the day.
Her tearful outburst today will likely change Fu Rong's strategy towards Yu Mowan, given how much she cares about her.
Fu Rong was always meant to be used to get rid of Yu Mowan, whom she had taken in, not to create chaos in the family and cause Yun Yun to fall out with her because of her protectiveness of her own.
Once things fall apart, and Fu Rong loses her voice in the family, her position as the adopted daughter will definitely become very awkward.
This is still considered good; the worst-case scenario is that Yun Yun would kick her out of the Shu family.
To secure her position as the daughter of the Shu family, she insisted on clinging to Yun Yun no matter what.
As long as Yu Mowan is driven away, the way this family used to get along will not change.
the next day.
Fu Rong indeed approached Yun Yun.
"Yunyun, let's talk."
She got straight to the point.
Although Yun Yun was somewhat surprised, as her daughter-in-law, she still had to give Fu Rong face.
Despite their disagreement last night.
"Where would Mom like to talk?"
She gave the decision-making power to Fu Rong.
"Let's go to the pavilion in the middle of the lake."
Fu Rong thought for a moment, "It would be even better if we could admire the fish while chatting."
Although Yun Yun didn't think Fu Rong had such leisure time, since Fu Rong had already asked, she, as the daughter-in-law, naturally wouldn't refuse.
"Mom, please."
She was still quite polite.
Fu Rong walked in front, with Yun Yun following behind.
When Yu Mowan returned from outside, she raised an eyebrow in surprise when she saw them about to leave, but still asked, "Grandma, Mom, where are you going?"
Looking at Yu Mowan, who was dressed in sportswear and had sweat on her forehead, Fu Rong's eyes flashed with disdain.
She truly couldn't bring herself to like this granddaughter who bore a resemblance to Yun Yun. If only she had been more ruthless back then, she should have just killed her...
Fu Rong took a deep breath, suppressing the murderous intent rising in her heart.
She's grown up now; talking about killing someone would be a crime. She has Shu Xueyin to protect her now, so she can't do something illegal.
Yu Mowan suddenly glanced at Fu Rong meaningfully. Fu Rong was startled and was about to wonder if the little vixen had figured something out when she saw Fu Rong smile at her.
"Grandma, do you mind if I stay with you?"
Yu Mo Wan Dao.
Fu Rong snorted inwardly; she shouldn't have been so wary of Yu Mowan.
At only twenty years old, what kind of meticulous and quick-witted mind could he possibly have?
"Come if you want."
Fu Rong said.
"Then I'll go upstairs to change my clothes and then I'll go."
Yu Mowan pointed upstairs, bid farewell to Yun Yun, and left.
As Fu Rong watched her gracefully ascend the stairs, and recalling how Shu Xueyin had once desired her room but had not been able to obtain it, her gaze turned cold once more.
Since it's already lost, why bother coming back?
If she hadn't been recognized, Yin Yin wouldn't have felt so insecure.
