Chapter 299: She Wants to Find a Male Nanny

~8 min read 1,509 words

Bai Mu also saw Bai Mo.

During this time, she thought about many, many things, but what she thought about most was still her husband.

Being a mother had always been her wish, but she shouldn't have kept dragging her husband along to indulge in her own wish for so many years.

These many years felt just like having had a dream.

Her mother-in-law could not accept the white-haired burying the black-haired, and at present, her health was getting worse and worse; it was unknown how much longer she could hold on.

The moment she saw Bai Mo, she felt as if it were a lifetime ago.

In the past, their family of three had also been very happy.

It was just that her husband's passing made her see Bai Mo, this child, clearly; she did not know if it was that genes were hard to change, or if they had not taught her well.

Bai Mu walked closer to her and discovered that compared to before, she had not changed much; her spirit was still high, and the corners of her eyes always carried a bit of coquettishness.

She had not lost weight either, it was just that her little white shoes were not very clean; in the past, she had always treated Bai Mo's affairs as her top priority.

It seemed that now that she had returned to the side of her biological father and biological aunt, she was easier to serve than before.

Bai Mo had been observing Bai Mu out of the corner of her eye; seeing her stand by her side with a complicated expression for a while before turning to leave, she suddenly panicked.

Did she have nothing left to say to her?

After a period of reflection, Bai Mu discovered that she truly had nothing good to say to this daughter.

Their fate had ended.

For the rest of her life, she wanted to live for herself.

"Stop!" Bai Mo shouted; she did not quite understand, and with trembling lips, she called out that long-lost form of address, "Mom, don't you want me anymore?"

Bai Mu closed her eyes, and tears slid from the corners of her eyes, "I cannot forgive you for your father's passing, and I cannot forgive myself; let's not see each other again in the future."

"But, I didn't expect it to turn out like this either," Bai Mo's eyes also turned red, "I also miss Dad very much, and I miss how happy we were when our family was together; besides, Mom, you are getting old, and in a few years when I grow up, I can take care of you. Don't go back to the countryside, okay?"

Bai Mo only wanted to make her stay now, "I am about to take the College Entrance Examination; when the time comes, if I get into a good university, I can find a good job, I can get ahead in life, and I can earn face for you, Mom."

Bai Mu gave a mocking laugh, "No need, don't trouble yourself with my future; you should take care of yourself."

The scene before her husband's passing still lingered in her mind; she was old and could not count on this adopted daughter.

As for her own reminder, it was also somewhat superfluous; Bai Mo would definitely take good care of herself.

After Bai Mu left, Bai Mo wiped away her tears; that's right, she had to take good care of herself.

Her adoptive mother was so selfish that she could not count on her.

She reckoned that only when her adoptive mother was old and had no one by her bedside would she feel regret.

Fortunately, she still had her biological father, Shen Chi.

It had to be said that Aunt Shen Yuan was right about one thing: blood relations were indeed a very important thing.

Although Shen Chi did not have much ability, at the very least he truly doted on her and would not abandon her for no reason like Bai Mu.

For now, she just needed to study her lessons well and get into the same university as Jiang Sinian.

In four years of university, she did not believe she could not win over Jiang Sinian.

She heard from Aunt Shen Yuan that when they were young, they were raised by Si Rong, which showed how much fate she had with Jiang Sinian.

By rounding up, they could also be considered one family.

"You have a whole family, how would it look if I moved in?" In the hospital, Ming Zi waved her hand, refusing Si Rong's proposal.

She sat on the hospital bed, her features carrying a sickly pallor.

"Among our whole family, is there anyone you aren't familiar with?" Si Rong tried her best to persuade her.

She had been frightened by her good friend's illness this time.

Ming Zi thought for a moment, "I'm familiar with everyone, but it's not comfortable."

She saw the figure of Jiang Cheng at the door and immediately said, "Fine, if you want me to live in your house, the two of us have to sleep in the same room!"

Jiang Cheng:...

He could not help but roll his eyes; this woman was truly childish!

From the time she was young, she liked to compete with him for his wife, and she had kept competing until she was old.

The affection he and his wife had built over so many years could withstand the test.

"Fine."

Then Jiang Cheng heard his wife's answer without the slightest hesitation:...

"Forget it, I'll be alone at home; next time if I feel uncomfortable, I'll call you." Ming Zi made a joke; she felt very happy looking at Jiang Cheng's dark face.

If she really moved into the Jiang Family, wouldn't Jiang Cheng, that old vinegar jar, be bubbling with sourness every day?

"No, either move to my house or hire a nanny." Si Rong insisted; it was very dangerous for a heart attack patient to live alone, "Otherwise, just stay in the hospital; Luo Yu and I can be more at ease."

Ming Zi:...

Her life!

When she was young, she fawned over that beast Luo Sheng everywhere; when she was old and finally free to have both cigarettes and alcohol, she met that stubborn mule Xue Ming and was managed by him for all these years.

Now that Xue Ming was gone and could no longer manage her, this old friend of many years had taken over managing her affairs.

"I'm afraid of you, just find me a nanny! I want a male nanny, one who is handsome, a good cook, has a sweet mouth, and talks little!" Ming Zi expressed her requirements with clear logic.

Si Rong:...

"I'll find you one!"

"Would that be a bit unseemly for my age?" Ming Zi was a little worried.

"Not at all," Si Rong comforted her, "You were fond of beauty and pleasure when you were young, and you have remained consistent for decades; it's fine."

"It's just that it probably won't be easy to find someone who meets all your conditions, so you'd better stay in the hospital for now!"

Ming Zi: "..."

Si Rong would sit in front of the computer wearing her reading glasses whenever she was free, searching for a nanny for her good friend.

She did not set the gender requirements too strictly; with so many scammers nowadays, she didn't want an old lady as wealthy and lustful as Ming Zi to be swindled out of both her money and her virtue by some young hunk.

After spending two days of effort, she had screened a few people she was prepared to meet.

However, she had not expected to see Lin Meixi.

The name on the profile was Lin Meng.

"Si Rong?" Lin Meixi had also not expected such a coincidence, "Are you the one looking for a nanny?"

She was unwilling to do that; she would absolutely not give Si Rong the chance to trample on her.

"Yes, I am looking for a nanny, but I don't want you; you can leave."

Although she was looking for a nanny for Ming Zi, Si Rong would not choose someone with poor character.

Lin Meixi:...

She glared at Si Rong resentfully, then remembering something, she added, "If I am not mistaken, you have been targeting me all these years, haven't you? Deliberately preventing me from finding a good job so I would suffer and be poor?"

She had guessed this long ago, which was why she didn't dare use the name Lin Meixi to find work; she hadn't expected Si Rong to keep such a close watch on her that even changing her name wouldn't help her escape.

Si Rong raised an eyebrow, "Think whatever you want; I have things to do now and no time to waste words with you."

"Heh~ You will get your retribution!"

Lin Meixi left in a fit of anger; the retribution she was referring to was Bai Mo.
