Chapter 20 – Scare (1)

What was to come would come. This was the original owner’s responsibilities, and she had adopted her body, so now she had adopted the original owner’s responsibilities.

Neither one of the two children reacted much when they saw their mother. Ye Jingjing was intimidated and kept her head low, only looking up at Shu Yan from time to time with some longing and some fear. Her brother, next to her, was the exact opposite, and perfectly comfortable being in a brand-new environment. He didn’t seem particularly happy seeing Shu Yan, nothing like the normal closeness or happiness when a child saw his mother.

Between the two kids, the daughter stayed with the original owner, but the younger son was taken by his grandmother shortly after he was born. Other than the time when he was being breast-fed, he had very limited contact with the original owner, which explained why he wasn’t close to his mother at all.

Logic would dictate that as the original owner was raised in a family that valued boys more than girls and that she had been mistreated since she was a child and that her husband’s family was displeased with her after she gave birth to a daughter, she would treat her daughter even better. And yet, the original owner also felt that the daughter was but a lost cause and all

From victim to perpetrator, Shu Yan couldn’t understand their mentality. They had already suffered under the idealism that boys are better than girls. Shouldn’t they treat their daughters even better?

One of the two children was neglected her entire life, so she was timid and has an inferiority complex. The other one was spoiled by his grandparents his whole life and was always given what he wanted. The way he talked could be very overbearing, almost as though he was a young emperor at home. Perhaps, picking up from his grandparents, he even seemed to have some negative emotions toward Shu Yan.

This wasn’t how a young child should behave toward his own mother. Never mind that Shu Yan never had her own children, but she still knew that these two children hadn’t been raised correctly. Luckily, they were both still young and that could be fixed.

Her own world had already entered into the age of information. One could learn everything from the comfort of one’s own home. She might not have her own children, but she had read and seen enough to make her half a child-care "expert".

She couldn’t rush about their education. What’s important right now was the matters with Ye Zhiqiang. He definitely wouldn’t want to leave everything behind. The most pressing question right now was what was going to be his next move.

Seeing Shu Yan back to the front of her room, Shu Jianyang left after a few more parting words. "It’s been a long day. Why don’t you get some rest? I’ll have someone bring dinner to your room and also send someone to keep an eye out on Ye Zhiqiang."

Going to his room, Ye Tianbao threw a fit. "I want to go home! I want grandma and grandpa!"

Shu Yan could understand Ye Tianbao throwing a fit being suddenly pulled away from a familiar environment and family members and thrusted into a strange environment, especially when the two of them were never that close.

"You guys had been travelling most of the day and have started to smell. Go and take a bath." Especially Ye Jingjing. She was so dirty that her sweat left streaks down her cheeks.
