Who told you to say I’m annoying!

　　Shen Chu has a pair of bright black almond eyes, which are round and round, and an equally round face with some baby fat. When he smiles, he looks like a white glutinous rice ball, with a soft, chewy texture.

　　At this moment, his eyes curved into a crescent shape, and he didn’t hide his mischievous look at all. His plump white feet were almost in front of Xie Shiming’s face, and he was “getting close to his face and opening wide” without any psychological burden.

　　It was a rare opportunity to gain the upper hand in the “contest” with Xie Shiming. Shen Chu, with an adult’s heart, enjoyed bullying the little Xie Shiming and fluttered happily on the carpet like a fat pigeon.

　　Seeing Xie Shiming frowning, he couldn’t help but lean back, and even raised his toes to his nose and smelled them.

　　”Brother, it smells good, not stinky!”

　　Then he came in front of little Xie Shiming again, the fat boy lay on his side, with a sincere look on his face: “Really, I didn’t lie to you.”

　　So–

　　“Hoo-hoo?”

　　Xie Shiming kept silent for a while with a stern face, stretched out his hand to push it away, then stood up and walked out.

　　”Um?”

　　Do you dislike him so much?

　　Shen Chu snorted lightly, put down his legs, turned sideways, lay flat on the carpet, opened his big eyes, stared at the ceiling blankly, his thoughts drifting away again.

　　After all, it takes some time to accept this kind of thing when you go back to your childhood.

　　For Shen Chu, it was like starting over again.

　　This time, he couldn’t just follow the same path as before, right?

　　When he fell down the stairs, he felt extremely regretful. But when he opened his eyes, he found himself back to when he was 5 years old.

　　This was simply God’s great mercy, giving him a chance to start over, allowing him to make another choice when facing a crossroads in life and pursue a different life experience.

　　He must seize such an opportunity.

　　Hold it tightly.

　　Just as I was thinking about it, a small hand suddenly stretched out in front of me.

　　This hand is a little bigger than his and a lot more bony. Although it is also white, if you look closely, you can see some tiny scars that have not yet completely faded. It is not delicate.

　　Looking up again, you can see Xie Shiming’s usual expressionless face.

　　As far as Shen Chu can remember, he actually doesn’t quite remember what Xie Shiming looked like when he was a child.

　　Compared to his chubby round face and chubby body, Xie Shiming turned out to be much thinner.

　　He also looks particularly taciturn. Apart from inheriting the Shen family’s clear-cut and superior looks, he is the kind of child that you don’t want to tease.

　　Shen Chu blinked and looked back at the hand that Xie Shiming extended to him.

　　There was a pill in that hand.

　　Shen Chu tilted his head.

　　Then slowly realized that –

　　Xie Shiming…

　　Do you really think he is sick?

　　Um……

　　”What kind of medicine is this?”

　　”Medicine for fever.”

　　As Xie Shiming spoke, he glanced at Shen Chu’s head, as if he thought Shen Chu was not smart enough.

　　Shen Chu: “…”

　　The little fat boy pushed it away: “I’m not sick!”

　　Xie Shiming responded with a suspicious look.

　　Shen Chu thought, you know shit!

　　He is a reborn person, breaking free from the shackles of his soul, enjoying the present, looking forward to a bright future, and is a free soul that is about to spread its wings and fly high. You mortals simply cannot understand his inner agility and beauty!

　　While complaining in his heart, Shen Chu flipped over again, stuck out his butt, and climbed up with his two fat hands. During the process, he raised his feet, straightened his waist and stuck out his belly. After going through the whole process, he finally looked directly at Xie Shiming’s chin.

　　“…”

　　He can’t keep up with his agile and beautiful inner body.

　　How annoying!

　　Xie Shiming seemed like he wanted to say something else when he suddenly heard the sound of a car driving in from outside.

　　Shen Chu trotted to the window and looked down. It was obviously a nanny car.

　　It’s Su Luoyue!

　　Thinking of Su Luoyue’s panicked and frightened voice when he fell down the stairs, Shen Chu felt a pang of sadness.

　　He couldn’t help but run outside.

　　Still on the second floor, after Shen Chu ran out the door, he hesitated for a moment.

　　After just a short while, I heard a voice coming from downstairs –

　　”Ma’am, you’re back.”

　　”Come on, Xiaoze, say hello to the lady.”

　　Xiaoze…

　　Shen Chu frowned, then suddenly opened his eyes wide.

　　Xie Junze!

　　And… Zhu Fangzhen? !

　　How could he forget that there were these two people when he was a child?

　　At this moment, Shen Chu was not in a hurry to go down. He walked small steps to the horizontal railing on the second floor, held the railing with both hands, squatted down to lower his presence, put his little face on the solid wood railing, and looked downstairs quietly.

　　Sure enough, Zhu Fangzhen and her son Xie Junze were standing in front of Su Luoyue.

　　Xie Junze is also 5 years old this year, only a little younger than Xie Shiming. Before Xie Shiming was recognized as the Shen family, he was Xie Shiming’s nominal cousin, and Zhu Fangzhen was Xie Shiming’s nominal aunt.

　　He and Xie Shiming were taken away by mistake in the hospital. The person was his biological mother, but Shen Chu and Zhu Fangzhen had no relationship with them, just like Xie Shiming was not Xie’s biological child, and neither was Shen Chu.

　　Speaking of which, this matter is quite tortuous and tragic.

　　Shen Chu’s father is unknown. His biological mother is Xiang Xingyue. She gave birth to him at the age of 21 out of wedlock.

　　The Xiang family is an ordinary small town family, and the parents are also ordinary parents. They are old-fashioned and conservative. They cannot accept Xiang Xingyue’s pregnancy before marriage, and even the father is nowhere to be found, so they want Xiang Xingyue to abort the child.

　　But Xiang Xingyue has a stubborn personality and would rather run away from home than give birth to the child.

　　Just a few days after Shen Chu was born, she was still lying alone in the hospital when she heard that her parents had an accident and died in a car accident on the way to see her…

　　So Xiang Xingyue suffered a huge blow before she could recover.

　　Suffering from physical and mental trauma, she was discharged from the hospital in a hurry, but somehow, she ended up taking the wrong child.

　　It was only after I had dealt with my parents’ funeral that I realized something was wrong.

　　But Xiang Xingyue’s health deteriorated. She didn’t know whose child she had picked up by mistake. She collapsed on the way to the hospital and never got up again. If she hadn’t met Xie Shiming’s adoptive father Xie Wenshan, who knows what would have happened to the baby who was still in the cradle.

　　Perhaps because of the shallow kinship, Shen Chu also has an uncle, Xiang Xinghe, but he was kicked out of the house when he was 19 years old, severed all ties and contacts with the family, and his whereabouts are unknown.

　　So once Xiang’s parents got into trouble, Xiang Xingyue had no other relatives.

　　Xie Wenshan was kind-hearted. Not only was he willing to adopt Xie Shiming, he also took good care of Xiang Xingyue during her last period of time.

　　However, after Xiang Xingyue passed away, when Xie Shiming was 4 years old, Xie Wenshan was diagnosed with cancer. It was already in the late stage when it was discovered. After nearly a year of treatment, which almost used up all the family savings, there was no improvement.

　　What Shen Chu knew was that although Xie Wenshan adopted Xie Shiming, he had never forgotten Xiang Xingyue’s last wish before her death – to help Xie Shiming find his biological parents and then find Xiang Xingyue’s own child.

　　After Su Luoyue gave birth, she took a break from acting for nearly five years in order to take care of him. She only made a comeback this year.

　　Xie Wenshan happened to see Su Luoyue’s comeback on TV. He noticed that Xie Shiming’s eyes and eyebrows were very similar to Su Luoyue’s. Even though he thought it might be a fantasy, he was determined to bring Xie Shiming to City B.

　　When she gave birth to her eldest son Shen Shuo, Su Luoyue did not retire from the film industry.

　　When she was pregnant with Shen Yi and Shen Sui, Su Luoyue still did not give up her work.

　　But there was almost an accident when giving birth to Xie Shiming. Su Luoyue gave birth in another place, and only Shen Mingzhou rushed over to accompany her. After the child was born, Su Luoyue decided to temporarily retire from the entertainment industry.

　　On the one hand, I want to take care of the children, and on the other hand, it is to maintain my health.

　　In addition, due to Su Luoyue’s status as a popular movie star, although the birth in the hospital was hasty, the information was kept confidential, so that for so many years, Xie Wenshan had not been able to find out much information about Xie Shiming’s biological parents.

　　Fortunately, Xie Wenshan’s desperate gamble was correct. Xie Shiming was indeed the biological son of Su Luoyue and Shen Mingzhou, and the real young master of the Shen family. When Xie Shiming was 5 years old, he finally returned to the Shen family.

　　After this incident, Xie Wenshan seemed to have finally unloaded the burden and could no longer hold on. Even with the financial support of the Shen family and a team of experts, he still could not resist cancer and eventually passed away.

　　Shen Chu’s biological mother died early, and he didn’t know who his father was. His grandparents were also gone, and he didn’t know where to find his only remaining relative, so even though Xie Shiming was adopted into the Shen family, Shen Chu was not sent away.

　　I thought the matter was over.

　　But not long after Xie Shiming was adopted into the Shen family, his nominal aunt Zhu Fangzhen came with his nominal cousin Xie Junze, hoping to find a job for him in the Shen family.

　　Because Xie Wenshan’s younger brother Xie Wenyong hit and killed someone with his car, who was a high school student, the other party’s parents refused to accept a private settlement and insisted on sending Xie Wenyong to prison. In addition, Xie Wenyong was also involved in gambling, so this sentence was not small.

　　Not only did she lose the pillar of her family, she also had to pay a lot of money and suffer a lot of contempt and criticism. So Zhu Fangzhen said that she could no longer stay in County C and had no other choice but to come here.

　　I hope that for Xie Shiming’s sake, they can take them in.

　　At that time, the fact that Xie Shiming was recognized as being in the Shen family caused quite a stir. After all, Su Luoyue made a high-profile comeback, and Xie Wenshan had no way to find her, so he could only try his luck and wait for her to show up, so the news was not concealed.

　　When Zhu Fangzhen brought Xie Junze over, it was not known whether it was a coincidence or not, but the news had spread. So under various circumstances, Su Luoyue let Zhu Fangzhen stay in the villa as a maid, and Xie Junze also moved in. Both mother and son lived in the guest room on the first floor, which was a single room.

　　These are all things Shen Chu knew since he was a child.

　　He also knew that Xie Shiming’s relationship with the mother and son was not actually very good. Zhu Fangzhen and Xie Junze originally wanted to have a good relationship with Xie Shiming, but Xie Shiming was rude to them and refused to get close to them at all.

　　Before the age of 15, Shen Chu thought Xie Shiming was an ungrateful person and was very close to Xie Junze.

　　But after he was 15 years old, when Xie Wenyong was released from prison, Shen Chu was severely slapped in the face – why did Xie Wenshan drag his sick body and take a gamble to bring Xie Shiming to City B after seeing Su Luoyue on TV?

　　——When Xie Wenshan sold his old house in the countryside to pay for his medical treatment, the money was swindled away by Xie Wenyong!

　　Otherwise, how could Xie Wenyong have the money to gamble, and how could he have hit someone with his newly bought car? !

　　Xie Wenshan and Xie Shiming had been living in an old house in the countryside. Xie Wenshan originally wanted to use the money from selling the house to rent a small place to live in, but he was soft-hearted and was cheated of his money by his own brother.

　　That’s why Xie Wenshan took a gamble and brought Xie Shiming to City B. He was desperate and just wanted to settle Xie Shiming before he died, to fulfill his wish and put an end to it all.

　　Shen Chu didn’t know what kind of life Xie Shiming led before he returned to the Shen family, but the day Xie Wenshan died was the only time he saw Xie Shiming cry, silently, only tears kept falling.

　　The two have depended on each other for 5 years. Perhaps because of this, Xie Shiming is unwilling to change his surname.

　　But how could he possibly get close to Zhu Fangzhen and Xie Junze?

　　After all, besides Xie Wenyong, Zhu Fangzhen was also involved in swindling Xie Wenshan’s life-saving money. Plus, Xie Junze not only bullied Xie Shiming since he was a child, but also disrespected Xie Wenshan. It was even less likely that Xie Shiming would have a good attitude towards this family.

　　But Zhu Fangzhen and Xie Junze pretended too well, and Xie Shiming was too young to say anything, so he had to endure it until Xie Wenyong was released, and then he let the whole family disappear from his sight completely.

　　It was also at that time that Shen Chu learned the whole truth and recognized the true faces of Zhu Fangzhen and Xie Junze!

　　Recalling this, Shen Chu couldn’t help but touch his face and couldn’t help but hum.

　　Xie Shiming, you can’t even fart, even if you hit him with eight sticks! Seeing Xie Junze pretending in front of him every day, who knows how he would laugh at him, right?! He was clearly the victim, but the roles were all taken away by this mother and son!

　　When you were a child, your words had no weight. Can you die if you say something when you grow up?

　　Shen Chu was so depressed that he buried his face between the railings and was so angry that he felt like he was going to mold!

　　”Madam, I heard that Shi Ming will go to Nanhong Kindergarten when school starts in July?”

　　Zhu Fangzhen held Xie Junze’s hand and stood in front of Su Luoyue, speaking with envy and admiration: “I heard that kindergarten is great, very good in every aspect, and one of the best in City B. Shi Ming is so lucky to be able to attend such a kindergarten. He and our Xiaoze both went to kindergarten in County C before.”

　　Su Luoyue has wavy wine-red hair, beautiful facial features, and a pair of phoenix eyes on her face. She is naturally charming. Although she is already 38 years old, you can’t tell that she has given birth to four children.

　　After hearing what Zhu Fangzhen said, Su Luoyue stroked her hair and asked in surprise, “Really? Our Mingming went to the same kindergarten as your son? But I remember Mingming stopped going to school when he was 4 years old. He has been taking care of his adoptive father for more than a year. How old could he have been when he went to kindergarten?”

　　When Shen Chu heard this, he almost laughed out loud.

　　Why didn’t I think his mother was so eloquent before?

　　What I mean is – why are you trying to get close to me by sending two children to the same kindergarten? One child went to kindergarten at the age of 3, and he stopped going at the age of 4. One child has to take care of his adoptive father alone. How do you discuss this matter?

　　But it was unknown whether Zhu Fangzhen heard it or not. She changed the subject and said in a different tone: “Shi Ming has been found, but our Xiaoze…”

　　”Madam, I have a child here, and I came to City B alone to work hard, and I don’t have any connections. I’m fine, I can do anything, but the child can’t be delayed. I’m useless as a mother, so I can only shamelessly ask you for a favor. Do you think you can find a way to let Xiaoze go to that Nanhong kindergarten?”

　　Zhu Fangzhen sighed again, “Our Xiaoze grew up with Shi Ming. If the two brothers can go to school together, they can at least take care of each other, don’t you think?”
