Chapter 109 They all laughed at me
"You can't even catch a child properly, what are you good for! A bunch of useless trash, what am I supposed to do when I get back? Go investigate right now!" Ye Chengyan's temples bulged with veins as he strode to a corner and roared in a low voice.
"Ayan..." Yu Baisu called him softly, her voice trembling with tears.
Ye Chengyan raised his hand and rubbed his temples, his tone finally softening.
"Don't cry, I'll be right back."
"Okay, Ayan."
After hanging up the phone.
Ye Chengyan clicked his tongue in annoyance.
Especially when he turned around and saw that President Yang, who had been chatting happily with him, was standing in front of Cheng Shuyan, the two of them talking about something, and the atmosphere seemed just right.
Ye Chengyan's sword-like eyebrows furrowed into the shape of a river.
Cheng Shuyan seemed to sense his gaze and looked up in his direction. Their eyes met.
He curled his lips into a smile, raised his wine glass, and made a toasting gesture towards Ye Chengyan.
Ye Chengyan's eyes darkened, and he left the venue with a gloomy expression.
Two hours later.
In a park in Shanghai.
A sudden female voice broke the silence in the park.
"Ayan! Xiaoze is here."
The sound of hurried footsteps approached from afar.
"Xiao Ze! Xiao Ze!" Yu Baisu was the first to find Ye Ze. She looked the chubby boy up and down and breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that he was alright.
The driver who picked up and dropped off Ye Ze from school today was recommended by Yu Baisu. He is a distant relative of hers. If something happens to Ye Ze because of the driver's negligence, she will also be held responsible.
“Aze, do you know how worried your aunt and your father are about you, all alone…” Yu Baisu stopped mid-sentence, only then noticing that someone was sitting next to Ye Ze.
She was mostly shrouded in darkness, and Yu Baisu was so focused on Ye Ze that she overlooked her.
When Yu Baisu saw her face clearly, her face turned pale, her body swayed, and she could no longer maintain her usual gentleness, questioning her in a shrill voice.
"What are you doing here? What do you want to do to Aze?"
"Miss Yu? Is this your child?" Yunzhi's pupils dilated when she saw Yu Baisu, her face filled with shock.
Yu Baisu pulled Ye Ze behind her and looked at Yun Zhi warily.
"Don't pretend with me! Did you encourage Xiaoze to run away from home? Xiaoze used to be so well-behaved! It must be you. Did you approach us with ill intentions?"
Is Ye Ze good?
Yunzhi sneered inwardly.
If Ye Ze were obedient, there would be no obedient people in this world.
At such a young age, he bullies others. With Ye Chengyan and Yu Baisu's deliberate encouragement, his very nature is corrupted.
They probably also know that Yu Baisu and Ye Chengyan think Ye Ze is well-behaved.
Yunzhi looked at Yeze with an innocent expression.
Ye Ze's face flushed red. He flung Yu Baisu's hand away, his chest heaving as he looked both ashamed and angry.
"It has nothing to do with Aunt Yun. I snuck out on my own. Aunt Yun is a good person. She bought me food when she saw I was hungry."
Yu Baisu looked at Ye Ze in disbelief.
Ye Ze's protection of Yun Zhi was tantamount to betrayal for Yu Baisu.
"Aze! You can know a person's face but not their heart. You're still a child; it would be too easy for her to fool you!"
Yu Baisu was somewhat agitated, successfully provoking Ye Ze's rebellious nature.
"I'm a child, not stupid. I know who's good to me."
"You mean, I've been bad to you?" Yu Baisu's eyes reddened, and she turned her head away to wipe her tears sadly.
Looking at the heartbroken and tearful Yu Baisu, Ye Ze felt regretful but too proud to apologize. He stood there awkwardly, and finally stubbornly turned his head away.
Yunzhi, who had been watching the commotion from the sidelines, explained softly.
“Ms. Yu, you’ve misunderstood. I was driving through the city center when I saw Xiaoze all alone with no adults around. I was worried that something might happen to him, so I thought I’d take him to the police station. But he was very wary and didn’t believe me at first.”
"Then why didn't you take Aze to the police station?"
Yu Baisu didn't believe it was such a coincidence.
Yunzhi glanced at Ye Ze and sighed softly.
“He wouldn’t go to the police station no matter what, and I was worried about him, so I had to go with him. By the way, Miss Yu, do you not feed your child? I saw that Xiaoze was very hungry, so I bought him some food.”
Ye Chengyan had just arrived when he heard Yunzhi's words.
Did Ye Ze not eat?
The kindergarten in Yeze is a prestigious kindergarten in Haishi, with tuition fees exceeding 200,000 yuan per semester. Every day, there is breakfast, morning tea, lunch, afternoon tea, and afternoon snacks, with fruits, yogurt, freshly baked bread, and biscuits provided continuously. How could he possibly go hungry?
Was it due to the kindergarten teacher's inaction, or was Ye Ze being bullied by his kindergarten classmates?
Ye Chengyan's dark eyes were filled with anger.
“How could we not feed Aze?” Yu Baisu’s face was flushed as she glanced at the porridge on the chair, her expression displeased.
"Miss, thank you for your concern for my son Aze. However, my son Aze loves meat, so he probably won't be used to such bland porridge."
She kept repeating "our son, Aze" over and over.
If Yunzhi didn't know who Ye Ze's father was, she probably would have thought that Yu Baisu was Ye Ze's biological mother.
However, she finally understood why Ye Ze had become a plus in just one month.
Gaining so much weight in just one month is unbearable, not only for children but also for adults.
If this continues for a long time, the child's health will definitely suffer.
Soon, Yunzhi's brows relaxed.
This is something that Ye Chengyan and Yu Baisu should care about; it has nothing to do with her, an outsider.
“This is what Xiaoze wants to eat, and it’s not good to digest such greasy food so late at night,” Yunzhi tried to explain.
"How could that be? I know my child very well."
Yunzhi pursed her lips. At this moment, Ye Chengyan, who had been silent all along, suddenly spoke up.
Why aren't you eating?
Yunzhi had noticed Ye Chengyan long ago, but she still pretended to be startled.
Ye Chengyan had a stern face, revealing neither joy nor anger.
Ye Ze lowered his head, his eyes red, and stubbornly remained silent.
"Ayan..." Yu Baisu wanted to help Ye Ze out of a predicament like before, and improve Ye Ze's favorability.
Before she could finish uttering two words, Ye Chengyan gave her a cold glance.
Yu Baisu immediately fell silent.
She glanced helplessly at Ye Ze.
"Say!"
In the cold wind, Ye Ze shivered, unsure whether it was from the cold or from being frightened by Ye Chengyan.
"I'm not eating, I'm going to lose weight!" Ye Ze said, his neck stiff, tears welling up in his eyes.
lose weight?
Ye Chengyan looked Ye Ze up and down.
A hint of confusion flashed in his dark eyes.
Was his son always this... chubby?
"Xiaoze, why are you trying to lose weight? You look just right."
Yu Baisu said with a look of surprise.
"My classmates all say I'm chubby. I want to lose weight. From now on, I will never eat fast food again, and I will never eat meat again!"
