Surrounded by the Billionaire's Deep Doting Chapter 340 - 305: The Chances of a Comet Striking Earth
Zhu Lan sat quietly, her hand propped on the smooth floor, reflecting her sorrowful face...
Tears fell one by one, splashing onto the ground, "Then why... did he treat like that? Why... didn’t he keep his promise to love and take care of for a lifeti..."
Su Xiaong also wanted to give her an answer.
But for things like this, where is the answer?
One person among millions has to correctly encounter another among millions.
It was originally a chance as rare as a cot striking the Earth.
Sotis, even if they collided, creating a spectacular blaze, they would both end up burned to ashes.
Su Xiaong thought...
Perhaps those lovers who swore the most devout vows, at the mont they vowed, truly did love each other.
But they were like a cot and the Earth, colliding too fiercely, and ended up consuming each other completely.
"What should I do... sob..."
"You should stand up first."
Zhu Lan was really tornted inside, especially since she wasn’t naturally an empathetic person who could calmly handle problems.
She indeed saw Su Xiaong as a thorn in her side.
Yet at this ti, she had to admit, when no one else spoke up for her...
Su Xiaong stood up for her.
Zhu Lan braced herself on the floor, barely straightened her knees, and stumbled, but thankfully Yin Shixiu supported her just in ti, preventing a fall.
"Your parents will co over in the afternoon, so go to Jun Garden now, wash your face, touch up your makeup, don’t worry your parents too much."
Zhu Lan closed her eyes.
She really wanted to push Su Xiaong away, like a mad dog, rejecting her so-called kindness.
But in reality...
She couldn’t push her away.
She needed soone to talk to, soone to comfort her, soone to tell her...
The sky hadn’t fallen yet.
Su Xiaong looked at Yin Shixiu, "I’ll accompany her to Jun Garden. You stay here and watch over Shuangshuang and Huanghuang."
Yin Shixiu nodded.
Watching Su Xiaong, like a big sister, walk ahead of Zhu Lan, while Zhu Lan, like a little sister, followed with her head down...
It was an indescribably strange scene.
The spoiled Miss Zhu, who probably never imagined herself being so disheveled in front of Su Xiaong one day.
Never imagined that one day, she would need Su Xiaong’s comfort.
The study’s door remained tightly shut.
Yin Shixiu could guess what the elders and Yin Bowen would say.
Even though the punishnt had been delivered, even though the family rules were set.
But whether Zhu Lan and Yin Bowen would eventually divorce depended entirely on Yin Bowen’s word.
The Yin Family valued family harmony, and the elders certainly hoped Yin Bowen would be more forgiving to his wife.
However, Yin Shixiu could also foresee the conclusion.
If Yin Bowen had even the slightest intention to forgive Zhu Lan, to continue with the marriage, this matter wouldn’t have escalated to the Yin Mansion.
Alright then...
The truth of the matter, perhaps only one person could see it more clearly.
Yin Shixiu knocked on the door of the elders’ bedroom.
Ah Su and the three children were inside playing with toys.
Yin Junjie was teaching Huang Huang to fly a toy plane.
Shuangshuang held a big peach in her hand, sitting on the side, gnawing and bossily directing Yin Junjie and Prince Huang.
"Over here! Plane... this way! That way..."
Her little mouth glittered with moisture, her chubby hands covered in peach juice.
Watching this, Yin Shixiu frowned deeply.
"Fourth Young Master."
Ah Su greeted Yin Shixiu as he ca in.
"Where did this peach co from? It’s cold outside; don’t let her eat out-of-season fruits."
"Yes, yes, the little miss was just using it to teethe, she’s spat most of it out."
Yin Shixiu said nothing more, sitting down by the bed.
Seeing her dad, Shuangshuang imdiately offered the big peach to him.
"Why? Daddy doesn’t want to eat it."
"Take it, take it!"
Shuangshuang beca anxious, raising the peach high with her chubby hand.
Yin Shixiu had no choice, took the peach, only for Shuangshuang to grin "hee hee," and then casually wiped her peach juice-covered hands on Yin Shixiu’s suit trousers.
Seeing this, Ah Su imdiately looked at Yin Shixiu.
Yin Shixiu just sighed heavily, seemingly used to it.
"Ah Su, go make so snacks and have them sent to Jun Garden."
"Oh, okay, then..."
"I’ll stay here with them."
Ah Su nodded, with the Fourth Young Master taking care of the children, Ah Su felt inexplicably reassured.
The door was closed again, Yin Junjie looked up at Yin Shixiu, then lowered his head again...
"Fourth Uncle, are Dad and Mom getting a divorce?"
"If your dad and mom get divorced, who do you want to go with?"
"...Mom."
Yin Junjie replied without hesitation.
Zhu Lan wasn’t a good mother, at least in the eyes of outsiders.
She was inherently a spoiled woman, so the child she raised was also very spoiled.
But children, with their simple hearts, care more about who treats them well rather than who is good or bad.
"What if you could only be with Dad?"
Yin Junjie was visibly taken aback for a mont, and then... he remained silent without saying anything.
Yin Shixiu looked at Shuangshuang and Huanghuang playing with an airplane and said blandly, "When your dad is on a business trip, has your mom ever brought another uncle ho?"
Yin Junjie shook his head, "No, she hasn’t."
Yin Shixiu looked at Yin Junjie, "Not even once?"
Yin Junjie shook his head, halfway through the shake, he suddenly rembered, "There was a very handso uncle who knocked on our door, but Mom didn’t let him in."
Yin Shixiu patted Yin Junjie’s head.
"And what about your dad? Has he ever brought another auntie ho?"
Yin Junjie’s head, which had lifted slightly, lowered again...
"Grandpa won’t tell anyone."
Yin Junjie puffed up his cheeks, seemingly still hesitating.
But Yin Shixiu already understood in his heart.
He didn’t force the child to say anything further, only said, "Don’t think too much, go play with Shuangshuang and Huanghuang."
Yin Junjie pouted and didn’t feel like playing anymore.
"Fourth Grandpa..."
He murmured softly toward Yin Shixiu.
"Hmm?"
"If I have to be with Dad... will it be hard to see Mom?"
Yin Junjie stared at him, his eyes timid.
Maybe it was because of Shuangshuang and Huanghuang that Yin Shixiu’s heart, which had always disregarded others, beca much softer.
Perhaps it was also because he had spent a long ti with Xiao ng that even looking at the eyes of this seven-year-old child would make him soften.
"You don’t want to never see your mom again, do you?"
Yin Junjie hurriedly nodded vigorously!
"Then listen to Grandpa; no matter what, you must insist on wanting to live with Mom."
Yin Junjie’s big eyes looked at Yin Shixiu, suddenly reddened, and then tears fell.
Yin Shixiu felt a little flustered, unsure of what he had said that made him cry suddenly.
"Fourth Grandpa... it seems like Dad and Mom are definitely getting a divorce... boo hoo..."
He really wasn’t good at comforting children.
And sotis a child’s sensitivity can catch people off guard.
Yin Shixiu could only pat his head.
He didn’t tell Yin Junjie that no matter how much he insisted on wanting to live with Zhu Lan, in the end, he would definitely be given to Yin Bowen.
The only thing that could be adjusted was probably the frequency of Zhu Lan visiting the child.
If Yin Junjie was stubborn enough, and if Yin Bowen softened a bit, maybe custody could be split fifty-fifty.
Yin Junjie was crying, Shuangshuang and Huanghuang both saw it, the sibling pair blinked at him...
Seeing them looking at him, Yin Junjie, although in terms of seniority is their elder, was actually much younger.
Suddenly feeling a bit embarrassed, he quickly wiped a tear, "I wasn’t crying, I just... my eyes hurt a bit."
Yin Junjie struggled to find an excuse, but Shuangshuang and Huanghuang actually couldn’t understand.
The two little ones, without a care in the world.
At this mont, seeing Yin Junjie’s eyes red and swollen like big walnuts, with snot dribbling over his mouth...
"Ha ha ha ha..."
The little girl, without a care, laughed first, pointing at Yin Junjie with her chubby little finger and holding her own belly with the other hand.
Yin Junjie’s face flushed half red with embarrassnt, and the tears he had held back suddenly poured out.
"Fourth Grandpa... Little Aunt’s laughing at ... boo hoo..."
Yin Shixiu quickly cleared his throat and said to Yin Junjie, "She ans to make you laugh, not to laugh at you."
Yin Junjie wore a pained expression, looking very suspicious...
Yin Shixiu seriously defended his daughter, afraid that Yin Junjie wouldn’t believe it.
"Ha ha..."
Just then, Prince Huang joined in, adding fuel to the fire.
Yin Junjie looked at Yin Shixiu, as if asking why Little Uncle was laughing at him too?
Uh...
"Little Uncle is also trying to make you laugh, to prevent you from feeling sad."
Yin Junjie sniffed, finding it hard to believe, but also thinking that Shuangshuang was so cute, and Huanghuang was so cute too, they couldn’t be so an-spirited...
So...
"... Oh."
He responded, then grinned at Shuangshuang and Huanghuang with a "hee hee hee"...
Yin Shixiu, pretending as if nothing happened, picked up a foreign novel from the bedside table of his father’s room.
The story in the synopsis was about a German soldier during World War II.
The bookmark was placed two-thirds of the way through...
An old soldier after all.
He sat at the edge of the bed, leafing through this book, while at his feet, three children played gas, babbling in a language only children could understand.
A little after three in the afternoon, the Zhu family arrived.
Unlike Zhu Lan’s arrogance and recklessness, the Zhu family’s parents were uncommonly humble and polite.
When Su Xiaong and Zhu Lan ca over from Jun Garden, the Zhu family parents had already sat down and talked with Yin Bowen and Shi Haiyan for quite so ti.
The general developnt of things, the Zhu family parents already knew about.
After listening, Mrs. Zhu remained silent for a long ti, before finally speaking, "I’m sorry."
Yin Shiqing sighed lightly, "No matter what happened, you can’t be blad. The young couple had been quarreling non-stop for half a year, and my wife and I didn’t take it too seriously, who knew... it would co to this."
"We failed in our upbringing, we’ve really lost face..."
Yin Shiqing’s polite words flowed seamlessly, and the parents of the Zhu family appreciated it very much.
After all, for their daughter to have caused such disgrace, being given a graceful escape by their in-laws was already an imnse act of tolerance.
When Su Xiaong and Zhu Lan walked in, the conversation had already shifted to discussing the issue of the children.
