“Mommy!”Xiao Sheng’s eyes lit up the moment she saw Gu Yan.
Gu Yan’s heart softened at the sight of the child’s black grape-like eyes.
Everyone else thought that Gu Yan was willing to adopt him because he pitied the child.
In fact, there was another reason. Xiao Sheng did not exist in his previous life.
In this life, Gu Yan was born again. He did many things and changed many things. That was why Xiao Sheng was born.
It was hard to tell how he felt about this child. Whether it was guilt, heartache, or more sympathy, Gu Yan could not tell.
Gu Yan only thought that such a good-looking child should not follow the same path as Bai Weiyang and Lei Qing.
She remembered that in her previous life, Bai Weiyang’s son was also crippled by her. However, he was much worse than Xiao Sheng.
She walked up to Xiao Sheng and rubbed his soft hair. She turned her head and said to old master bai, “Grandpa, are you bullying Xiao Sheng?”
“How can that be…”Old Master Bai was speechless.
Gu Yan was also joking with him.
She smiled and said, “Then why don’t you give way to him when you play chess?”
“I…”
“I was the one who told great-grandfather not to give way to me,”Xiao Sheng said softly. Then, she suddenly remembered something and turned around to look behind Gu Yan.
She did not see the man who glared at her at the court just now.
Xiao Sheng knew that that man was the husband of Gu Yan’s mother. If that man did not like him, would Gu Yan’s mother abandon him as well?
How could Gu Yan not know what Xiao Sheng was worried about?
Even old master Bai understood it.
The two of them looked at each other.
Gu Yan said softly, “Xiao Sheng, your father Lu will come back later. Think about it. If you have anything to say, you can tell him.”
Xiao Sheng’s pupils contracted. “Father Lu…”
“Yes, your father Lu is a very nice person. I’ll be by his side when the time comes. You can say whatever you want to say.”
Xiao Sheng lowered her eyes once again and slightly clenched the corner of her shirt.
Gu Yan sighed.
This child still could not let go.
Gu Yan had zero experience with precocious boys. Now it seemed that old master Bai’s side could not be counted on.
After all, Old Master Bai had accompanied the child to play five-piece chess for the entire afternoon, yet the child still did not win a single game..
Old Master Bai also realized that it was not very safe for him to do so. He coughed and said to Xiao Sheng, “Xiao Sheng, go and see if your grandparents are back. If they are back, let’s finish our meal.”
“Okay.”
Xiao Sheng responded, got up, and walked downstairs.
Only Gu Yan and old master Bai were left in the study.
Old Master Bai Sighed. He lowered his eyes and said softly, “If it were your grandfather, he would know how to get along with children.”
Old Master Bai’s face was full of frustration.
Gu Yan said, “Grandfather, don’t be like this. Actually, you did very well. At least, Xiao Sheng is not afraid of you now.”
”… You Lass, are you deliberately making fun of grandfather?”Old Master Bai Sighed. “I’ve always felt that I’ve failed in educating my children. Look at Bai Weiyang…”
“Grandfather, my father, Bai Jianjun, my uncle, Bai Jianxun, and my brother, Bai Changle. At the very least, you’ve been very successful in educating them, haven’t you? “You have to know that Xiao Sheng is a boy, so she needs a strong education like yours.”
It had to be said that Gu Yan’s words had hit the nail on the head.
Because under elder Bai’s education, boys had become successful, but girls..
Bai Mengchen and Bai Weiyang..
