Chapter 90 -  Foolishness ("At least when he still needs me") (3)     

By this point, even the old madam who had been through many vicissitudes in life had to choke back her tears. “She couldn’t see out of her eyes; how would she know to avoid cars? And how’d she be able to avoid the car. I knew what was going through her mind… she blamed herself. She was with ZhenYu when he disappeared. She was only distracted for a second and he was gone. She blamed herself not holding onto him the entire time, to have him within her sight the entire time. Aye. The day after his mother’s accident, ZhenYu returned on his own, with injuries on his back. When he got home, he still had a small knife in his hand that he refused to put down.”

Having said that, Xu WanZhi recalled the day when Mu ZhenYu explained to her about where his scars came from and how nonchalant he was. She felt her heart tightened. 

He had not mentioned a word about his mother. 

But he beat up the man sent by his dad to spy on him the day she snuck out of Bai FeiChen’s birthday banquet. All because he thought she, too, might be kidnapped. 

“I just don’t like people that I like disappearing from my sight, get it?”

That what he said to her at the time. 

Perhaps because he let his mother disappeared from his sight, and he had never seen her again. 

Seeing that Xu WanZhi was deep in thought, the old madam went quiet as well. After a while, she continued. “Just think about it. How sad he felt when he found out what had happened. His grandfather was in critical condition in the hospital. His mother lost her sight and was killed in a motor vehicle accident. His own father, on the other hand, was still vacation with another woman and his precious second son on an island. He probably wants his father dead even in his dreams. The reason I am telling you all this was because I want to ask you whether you still to be with my grandson after learning about his past.”

Xu WanZhi sat up straight and nodded earnestly. “I had never taken being with him lightly.”

She could still clearly recall how Mu ZhenYu had confined and tortured the original owner, had her watch him climb all the way back up before completely destroying her in the original novel. 

“But, I think as it try harder, I will be able to do it.” She looked down, picked up the teapot and refilled the old madam’s cup. Her attitude was neither that of servitude or arrogance. “He doesn’t lie others disappearing from his sight, I can always let him know where I will be. He hates his father, then I won’t bring him up. I will be able to do that, at least during the time when he still needs me.”

She would cautiously avoid letting him turn villainous. At least, in the next 6-months’ time. 

Sitting across from her, a shred of surprise crossed the old madam’s doddered face followed by a hint of a smile. “All these years that I have been alive, I have never seen a kid as foolish as you.”

The old madam stood up and said toward the outside, “Lao Lin, it’s time to go.”

Butler Lin opened up the door immediately and helped the old madam out of the guest area. 

When she got to the door, the old madam turned back around and added with a smile, “I can’t wait to watch your ‘Blossoming Us’.”

After her measurements were taken, Xu WanZhi had Xiao Yuan confirmed the photo set time with Tianna’s assistant before they left the studio. Inside the car, Xiao Yuan handed her a stack of information. “WanZhi-jie, this is the agenda for the premiere of ‘Blossoming Us’. The production crew sent them over. I have just printed them out and they are still warm from the printer.”

Xu WanZhi flipped open the document and saw the first sentence on the first page – Focus: Interaction between the male and female leads. 

In layman’s term: stir up news as a couple. 

Everything went dark in front of her all of a sudden. She had just vowed to be loyal to Mu ZhenYu. How did this happen?

She felt helpless thinking about Shen Yi’s look. Had Mu ZhenYu found out that she was involved with Shen Yi again, he would for sure go ballistic all over again. 

When she got home, she mulled over it and finally, with a stroke of genius, left the premiere strategy at the most obvious spot on the end table.
