Chapter 863: Kindness Must Have a Bottom Line

She could accept Sheng Aifei, but she could not accept his status as an illegitimate child.

"Mom, I'm going with you."

"Mom, I'm going with you too." Shi Ran came out of the room, also dragging a suitcase.

Ever since Dad and Seventh Uncle brought that child home, she knew this possibility existed, so she had prepared in advance.

Needless to say, the two little ones hadn't been weaned yet and didn't have their own opinions, so naturally, they had to go with their mother.

Wang Yinghao: "Xuanxuan, wait for me a moment, I'm going to pack my suitcase."

Sheng Jiang: "Old partner, bring my chess set and fishing rod."

"Okay."

Wang Yinghao agreed and walked up the stairs, but just after going up, she came back down: "Where are we going to live?"

Shi Youxuan:...

Sheng Jiang didn't know either, so he looked at his daughter-in-law in confusion along with his wife and asked: "Xuanxuan, with so many of us moving out, where will we live?"

Shi Youxuan: "Mom and Dad, you should just stay at home."

The old couple said in unison: "No, we cannot be separated from the children, nor can we be separated from you. What Hanyu did is wrong, and we support whatever decision you make."

"You can take the children and move out, even if you don't want to live with him anymore, we support you, but there is one condition: take the two of us with you."

Shi Youxuan:...

This scene was very familiar; it had happened several times before.

When a whole family lives together, how could there not be any conflicts?

At first, she and her parents-in-law had conflicts over the children's education, the parents-in-law wanted to move out, Shi Ran wanted to follow them, and so it didn't happen.

Later, Sheng Hanyu and his parents had conflicts, the parents wanted to move out, Shi Youxuan and the children wanted to follow them, and because the group had grown, it wasn't easy to move out, so it didn't happen either.

There were two more times they talked about living separately, but it was abandoned because there were too many "burdens."

Now this scene was playing out all over again.

But today's situation was different from before; Shi Youxuan would not give up easily!

"Mom and Dad, I know your intentions, but this matter is different from before, so you don't need to come along. I'll take the children out to have some peace and quiet."

Wang Yinghao: "Can you have peace and quiet taking four children by yourself? Take us along, it'll be just right to help you with the children."

Sheng Jiang: "Since there are so many of us, and they are only two people, why should we be the ones to move out? Just kick the two of them out."

Wang Yinghao agreed: "Good idea, let's do that."

In the end, they didn't move out.

Sheng Hanyu's things were cleared out, and it was Wang Yinghao who packed them herself.

She used her actions to prove to her daughter-in-law that she stood on the side of reason, not family; this matter was her son's fault, and she would firmly stand on her daughter-in-law's side.

Although he was "kicked" out of the house, it wasn't actually far.

Sheng Hanyu lived with the child in the neighboring Villa, both within the same courtyard.

But they no longer ate or slept together; Fang Jie cooked meals every day and delivered two portions to the house next door.

Wang Yinghao and Sheng Jiang also refused to acknowledge that child.

Knowing full well that he wasn't their son's biological child, yet because of an outsider, their perfectly good family had been turned into this state; the old couple felt their son's brain was sick.

Next door.

"Dad, I miss Mom." Sheng Aifei leaned tightly against Sheng Hanyu, and the two of them stared blankly at the black-and-white photo placed on the table.

Sheng Aifei had never been away from his mother since he was small; although his mother's moods were unpredictable and her attitude toward him was sometimes good and sometimes bad, she was still his mother.

She was the person closest to him.

Now that his mother had passed away, his father was the person closest to him.

Sheng Hanyu held the child and stroked his head.

This child was very sensible, sensible enough to make one's heart ache!

He was always scolded by other children for being a wild child with no father.

Aifei not only looked like a Pirate leader, but his personality was also the same.

He had great strength and a quick temper; as long as other children scolded him, he would fight them.

But he was very filial; once, Yafei cried in front of him and asked him not to fight with other children anymore.

From then on, he really never fought again, even if he suffered great grievances and unfairness outside, he endured it all, just so he wouldn't make his mother sad.

When he first saw this child, his eyes were full of hostility!

But when Yafei asked the child to call him Dad, his eyes were immediately filled with hope and became soft.

Sheng Hanyu would never forget the child clutching his thigh and asking: "Are you really my dad? You're not lying to me, right? If you are my dad, then I am a child with a dad."

"Yes, I am your dad."

He answered with absolute certainty.

Club.

In the past, everyone would gather together for a lively party, but today it had turned into a women's gathering.

Shi Youxuan, Jian Yixin, Wan'er, and Ma Ling'er.

They say three women make a play, so with four women together, they were plotting against men.

The topic of conversation was that child—Sheng Aifei.

Jian Yixin warned earnestly: "Xuanxuan, let me tell you, you absolutely cannot loosen your stance on this; you must firmly refuse to acknowledge that child, otherwise there will be endless trouble in the future."

Ma Ling'er: "Why not expose it? You should let the child know whose child he is. Paternity tests are very convenient now; you can't let him just do whatever he wants."

Wan'er: "I don't think it's that serious, right? The child is still young. As long as we are good to him, he will be good to my sister in the future. Telling him the truth now is too cruel; he is still just a child."

She lost her parents at a young age and knew that the taste of having no father or mother was not easy to bear.

And wasn't Shi Youxuan the same?

At home, she could still control herself, but in front of her sisters, she said whatever was on her mind: "I don't actually mind the child being raised with me, but this matter still needs to be made clear; whose child it is, is whose child it is. What is this supposed to mean now? I can't let someone else's child harm my own children."

"Ranran and Zichen haven't done anything wrong either, and the rumors outside now have a huge impact on the two of them."

It's not just now, but also in the future; it's all troublesome.

The top floor of the Ginza Building.

Beer, red wine, melon seeds, and peanuts were laid out on the coffee table.

The men were gathered around the sofa, also discussing the same matter.

Yun Zhe Hao: "Young Master Sheng, how long do you intend to live apart from your wife?"

He tilted his head back and gulped down a large mouthful of beer, then corrected: "It's not that I want to live apart now; it's that Xuanxuan refuses to forgive me."

Jian Yining: "Xuanxuan is doing the right thing."

As soon as the words fell, several gazes like hawks shot toward him in unison.

Sheng Zerong: "Traitor, did you come to the wrong place? Why don't you just go to the Club and sit with them instead?"

Jian Yining: "I'd like to, but I'm afraid they'd treat me like a spy and kick me out."

"You still know that, you still know that? Since you know, you still want to be a traitor?"

Everyone said what they had to say, and joked around.

In the end, they still had to return to the main topic.

The matter of where Aifei belongs is indeed a problem.

Yun Zhe Hao: "Actually, what Xuanxuan is doing isn't excessive. If this were my Ma Ling'er, she would have used a kitchen knife to hack me out. A chance to explain? There wouldn't be one at all."

Sheng Hanyu: "I actually hope she would have a row with me; that would still be better than now. When she sees me, it's as if she doesn't see me at all; she ignores me completely."

Jian Yining: "She should have used a kitchen knife to hack you out, and then ignored you."
